He received a neo-Confucian education under the supervision of his father, Cui Yuanlin (崔元森). In 1763 he received the title " juzhen ". The main work is Kaohsin Lu.
He insisted on the distinction between “training for a career” and “training for oneself” (“ Lunyu ”, 14:24: 古 之 學者 為 己 ， 今 之 學者 為人), emphasized the value of the latter. [4] Unlike the Neo-Confucianists, he preferred not to study the “principles” of “li” 理, but to study facts (“shi” 事) and their historical representation. [five]
When viewing the biography of Confucius at Sim Qian, Tsui Shu determined that its probability is 20-30 percent. [6] At the same time, his argument was not only textual: as a Confucian, Tsui relied on the idea of the teacher’s perfect qualities, which supposedly allow the condemnation of those classical statements that contradict this, as later fabrications.
Tsui Shu was critical of representatives of the “Han teachings” ( Zheng Xuan ) and importantly, before the comments of Zhu Xi . [7]
