Abstract: .In the late Ming Dynasty, personality of Confucian gentleman was collapsed under the influence of social atmosphere and the impact of Yangming School. In order to revive the Confucianism, Huang Daozhou wrote Ruxingjizhuan to interpret and promote benevolence of the true spirit of confucianism in the book of Rites-Confucianism. From the benevolence, heavy tight potential, and self-cultivation, Huang Daozhou expounded Confucian moral thoughts and practice standards, and reestablished personality paradigm and realistic path of “Confucian gentleman”. At the same time, whether at home or as an official, Huang Daozhou, obeying Confucian "personality self-discipline and practicing by himself, promoted the reconstruction of the late Ming Dynasty Confucian personality paradigm.
