Chapter 798

"What's wrong with me? It's just a Buddhist verse." Mr. Bao smiled, "This sentence says that wise people will not kill at will, and people with benevolence will not hurt others at will. It reminds us, We must improve our wisdom and kindness to avoid accidentally hurting the living beings in the world. "Among all other sins, killing is the most serious; among all the merits, not killing is the most serious." This is the virtue of not killing. In fact, this concept is not only found in Buddhism, but similar remarks are also common among various schools of thought. Mencius said, "A gentleman can't bear to see an animal die when he sees it alive, and can't bear to eat its flesh when he hears its sound." A king also has a compassionate heart, and there are times when he cannot bear to kill.”

"It seems that killing is a big mistake. Hey, I guess that's the case too. This slave has never given up eating meat since she was a child. She has also stepped on some ants and swatted some mosquitoes intentionally or unintentionally. From this point of view, this slave is also a murderer. . Hey, isn't it unwise and unkind?" the maid asked doubtfully.

"I just wanted to say that you are smart, but after all you are still a little girl. You have read too few books. When you think about it deeply, you can't help but be narrow-minded." Mr. Bao said with a smile, "If you are a monk, you should abstain from greed, ignorance, and killing in order to achieve Buddhahood. Sexuality is perfect. But you are just a little girl in the world. If you are always wary of these details, won't you be in trouble and achieve nothing? It’s about cultivating morality. But if you get stuck in it and pursue details too much, you will become rigid.”

The maid suddenly said: "You must be knowledgeable and speak clearly. It seems that this non-killing thing must focus on kindness, which is the foundation."

"It's rare that you can do good things so well." Mr. Bao was very happy and picked up another piece of tea to eat.

The maid tilted her head and thought for a moment, then sighed.

Mr. Bao was puzzled and said, "You just found out the solution, why are you sighing again?"

The maid sighed: "This slave sighs because he is insignificant. I heard that tomorrow we will open the city to fight, and I don't know how many people like me are in trouble - people like us just follow the trend and can't help ourselves, so we know the meaning of kindness. What's the use of mind? But how much power can you gain from eating a few pieces of meat and fighting a few mosquitoes? In essence, it's not because you can't protect yourself. You can only rely on these to accumulate merit and blessings. He is a prince or above, with broad connections and strong strength, so he has the means to protect his family in times of disaster. "

"Save the family?" Mr. Bao's heartstrings trembled, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "The water will overflow when it is full, and the moon will wax and wane. Who can escape? After all, it is not the time to prosper from the past. What's more, I say it nicely now. It’s called being wise and protecting yourself. To put it bluntly, it’s just that someone who is a complicit person like me dares to talk about benevolence and charity in front of others. If my ancestors hear it, they will think that I have tarnished the family tradition.”

The maid said: "The master is trying to protect his family, which is understandable. But I heard that the master's words seem to be controlled by others, which is not his intention?"

Mr. Bao sighed and said: "In troubled times, everyone is like duckweed. It would be great if there was a wise king to return the favor, but now... where can such a person come from heaven? Alas, the future is uncertain."

The maid said: "Excuse me for saying something treasonous and unethical - King Zhou of Shang Dynasty is beautiful and majestic, smart and good at fighting, and he has the appearance of a king, but in the end he is not stupid and ignorant? The Xuanwu clan of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty killed his brother and forced his father. How can we talk about morality and filial piety? But it is biased. It was he who initiated the rule of Zhenguan and built an unparalleled foundation. This can only be proven by time and cannot be determined at a glance. "

Mr. Bao smiled: "You little maidservant, you are talking nonsense. Please tell me, how can you be considered wise?"

The maid smiled and said, "Young master, I'm taking the test. I've only read a few miscellaneous books, how can I master the skills of others? I talk about benevolence, loving the people, and benefiting the world. I'm afraid that the master will laugh at my routine. When I talk about opening up borders and expanding territory, and establishing strength, I'm afraid. The young master accuses me of being short-sighted and reckless. I talk about following advice and selecting talents and using their talents. I am afraid that the young master will think that I am selfless and enforce the law strictly. I am afraid that the young master will say that I talk about checks and balances and decentralization of power. , I'm afraid that I'm out of touch with reality. Hey, this question is really difficult to answer." Mr. Bao picked up a piece of tea and chewed it carefully: "It seems that you already have an idea, so you might as well say it."

The maid smiled and said: "I believe that there are thousands of ways to be wise, but when boiled down to the most basic, it is just the word 'need'."

Mr. Bao smiled slightly: "Elaborate."

The maid smiled and said: "It is said that the imperial power is supreme. Just throwing an imperial edict down can change the clouds and rain. It seems that life and death are all controlled by the monarch's thoughts. But in fact, it is not the case. Just like a machine and parts, the emperor is just the whole. Part of the process. Everyone is using him, because he has value, and he is also using others. Power and money exchange, resource replacement, and then each gets what he needs. The people need the monarch to be favored, and the monarch needs the people to love him. Support. The ministers need the monarch to delegate their power, and the monarch needs the ministers to perform their duties. Everyone is needed and needed. Needs and needs complement each other, and ultimately reach a state where each takes a step back - and it is achieved. The balance between the three pillars of monarch, ministers and people. If the transformation process between needs and needs is smooth, the monarch will be wise. If the process is not smooth, the monarch will be ignorant. "

Mr. Bao was surprised and praised: "I didn't expect that you, a female classmate, have such a vision. Comparing the governance of the world to a machine is very novel. Everyone performing their own duties is indeed the foundation of a prosperous age. But if you want the machine to operate smoothly, you also need to It’s not an easy task. After all, people are not just plants, and they are not always willing to make parts. They always have desires, and their desires are endless.”

The maid smiled and said: "It is not easy to be a wise king."

Mr. Bao raised his eyebrows and smiled: "If the parts don't cooperate and obey, and the machine just doesn't work, how can we solve the problem?"

The maid smiled and said: "If the parts on the young master's car are broken, will the young master have someone repair it, or just replace it with a new one?"

Mr. Bao said: "If only one or two parts are broken, repairing is the priority. If there are many broken parts, it is likely that they are in disrepair or the quality is of poor quality. It would be more cost-effective to just buy another set. "

The maid nodded and said with a smile, "After all, the young master is wealthy, so he can change the car as he pleases. How wonderful!"

Mr. Bao smiled and said, "It's just a set of cars."

The maid nodded again and smiled even more freely: "I don't have the wealth of the young master, so I don't have the confidence to do it at my request. But the young master also said that people always have desires."
