please make me king

Chapter 1217 King Shun Genesis

On March [-]th, weeping willows outside Jiangzhou City were green and blue waves were rippling.

It is the time when the spring is bright and beautiful. On the banks of the Fenhe River, there are many tourists, men and women in costumes, in groups of three or four, and laughter fills the entire river bank for a while.

Zhang Shun looked at the scenery in front of him with a smile, feeling relieved and nostalgic.

March [-]rd is the Shangsi Festival, a festival for spring outings in the countryside, bathing by the side of the mountain, offering sacrifices to Gao Yu, and praying for fertility.

Of course, don't look at it sounds very high-end.

In fact, in ancient times, young men and women came out to take a bath, then courted and had sex, and sacrificed to the god of fertility.

However, with the development of the times and the change of social atmosphere, Shangsi Festival has also become a traditional Girl's Day.

On this day, women who have not left the cabinet often dress up and take the opportunity of an outing to go out to meet unmarried men.

The women who have been out of the cabinet go to the mountains and rivers with their husbands and children to enjoy the spring.

If it wasn't for this war, I'm afraid Zhang Shun would have led his group of women to the Weihe River for an outing along the way.

"King Shun, it's windy outside, hurry up and get into the boat!" At this moment, Wang Jinyi called softly, interrupting Zhang Shun's thoughts and calling him back.

"Okay, don't let others get close!" Zhang Shun nodded, then bent down and got into the painting boat.

And in this painting boat, Sun Chuanting, Song Xiance and Han Linsan had already sat on the ground, waiting for a long time.

This day was the second day Zhang Shun arrived in Jiangzhou, but Zhang Shun mysteriously and secretly called out these three people.

The three looked puzzled, and they didn't know what kind of medicine Zhang Shun was selling in the gourd.

"Everyone is my confidant and loyal minister, I think there are some things we need to reach a consensus in advance!" Zhang Shun laughed.

Seeing that Zhang Shun is mobilizing the teachers and mobilizing the crowd, everyone couldn't help feeling tense, and quickly asked: "I don't know what it is, King Shun, but it's okay to say."

"The world is different, but things are different. Since Confucianism was founded by the sage Confucius, it has been followed by Mencius, Xunzi, Ercheng, and Mr. Yangming." Zhang Shun opened his mouth and said in shock.

"Each school has its own school, and each has been leading for hundreds of years. It's just that the past glory is gone, and the scholars are no longer as ambitious as before. If you continue to hold on to the crippled and deficient, it is quite out of date!"

"Therefore, this king is interested in reforming Confucianism, is it possible?"

"This... this may cause chaos in the world!" Apart from Sun Chuanting, there were no Confucian scholars present, and he couldn't help frowning when he heard this.

The transformation of ideas is not that simple, too.The emergence of a new idea or theory must be accepted by the majority of people and be questioned and criticized by other schools of thought before it can establish a school.

Otherwise, it is just building a car behind closed doors, entertaining oneself, and being laughed at by the world.

In Sun Chuanting's view, for Shun King Zhang Shun, turning the world upside down and changing the destiny is already the most difficult thing in the world.

Now I want to clean up the old customs and sweep away the obsolete, it is really greedy!
As for Song Xiance and Han Lin, one is a Taoist priest and the other is a priest.
The two of them had nothing to do with themselves, so they naturally kept their eyes on each other and kept silent.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Shun said: "What I call 'innovation' is actually just going back to the original."

"Back to the origin?" Sun Chuanting, Song Xiance, and Han Lin were taken aback when they heard the words.

"During the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, everyone regarded Haotian God as the most supreme and holy, and only the emperor could sacrifice to him."

"When Zhou's morality declined, rituals collapsed and music deteriorated, people forget it. I want to revive the virtue of the Haotian God, is it possible?"

When Sun Chuanting, Song Xiance and Han Lin heard Zhang Shun's words, their expressions changed drastically.

What does it mean to revive the "virtue of the Haotian God", this is to restore the authority of the "Son of Heaven"!
Especially when Han Lin heard the debate between Zhang Shun and the Catholics twice, he had a faintly coincident idea in his heart.

Sure enough, Zhang Shun continued to say: "The Haotian God is supreme, he follows the way of heaven, has no desire, no knowledge, and let nature take its course."

"Humanity is not the case. Human beings are the primates of all things. They have many thoughts and thoughts. They are different from Qin and Muchu. They are different from the way of heaven. Therefore, God entrusts the Son of Heaven to walk in the way of humanity."

Sun Chuanting, Song Xiance and Han Lin couldn't help but looked at each other, thinking: King Shun is planning to be the only one!

Is what Zhang Shun said reasonable?
It makes sense, that is, it is so reasonable that no one can refute it.

In fact, although the meaning of the identity of "Son of Heaven" has gradually faded since Qin unified the six kingdoms, the emperor still has the exclusive right to offer sacrifices to the Haotian God, the Five Gods, and Heaven and Earth.

And what Zhang Shun did was to move "against the trend of history" and re-strengthen the status of the emperor as the "Son of Heaven".

The purpose of strengthening is also very simple, to get to the bottom of the matter, and to completely solve the problem of the emperor's "legal system".

Those three people were not stupid either. They pondered for a moment after hearing the words, and each couldn't help asking one after another: "What about the ancient sages and sages?" But God, Jesus, Mary?"

"The Great Dao gives birth to one. He is the God of Haotian who has no consciousness, no knowledge, no good and no evil, and follows the nature of the Tao. At the beginning, people did not debate its name, or called it God, or called it Heaven, or called it God. Its original meaning is the same. Also." Zhang Shun laughed.

"Those who are conscious and knowledgeable are called 'gods' and 'immortals'; those who educate all people and lead people to be good are called 'sages'."

"Its gods, immortals, saints, etc. are worshiped and sacrificed by thousands of people, so it is called 'Shinto'."

"The way of heaven is the greatest, and the way of humanity is in it; the way of humanity is second, and the way of gods is in it."

"Such respect and order, the difference between upper and lower, then the world will be safe!"

Good guy, Zhang Shun directly set the standard, you can figure it out for yourself!

Sure enough, it was "I am the only one", the three of them looked at each other, and suddenly fell into a deep thought.

If you want to bring this religion into the "Day of Heaven", you can only accept the setting of King Shun's "unawareness and no knowledge", accept the rule of "the Son of Heaven alone sacrifices", and become a "Son of Heaven" memorial archway.

If you think that the priests of this religion have "sentiments and desires", then you have to wait and choose between "God", "Immortal" and "Holy" in Shinto.

"Since Haotian God is unconscious and unconscious, why sacrifice him?" Han Lin asked a little bit unwillingly after thinking about it.

"The great way is simple, the great way is invisible, and the great way is selfless!" Zhang Shun couldn't help laughing, "Because of his selflessness, he is fair. This is the virtue of God!"

"Therefore, we are born between the heaven and the earth, and we do not realize the benefits for a long time, and we do not realize the disasters when we fall, so let it be!"

"The meaning of King Shun is quite in line with the ancient system, and I have no objection!" Hearing Zhang Shun's words, Sun Chuanting pondered for a while, and took the lead in responding.

The system of "Son of Heaven" has existed since ancient times, and Confucianism is not surprising.

The theory of Haotian God has been discussed by Confucian sages, so Sun Chuanting thinks that scholars in the world will not have much reaction to it.

"Song also has no objection. I guess most Taoist priests are busy cultivating immortals and don't have time to worry about King Shun!" Song Xiance was always talking about gods and gods, and he was not a serious Taoist priest, so he didn't care.

Well, now the ball is on the Catholic side.

"I..." Han Lin felt his throat was a little dry, and couldn't help hesitating, "I can't decide this matter alone..."

Zhang Shun's remarks were of course quite in line with Han Lin's intentions, but the Catholic priests have always emphasized that Catholic doctrine is "the rule of the world" and cannot be changed, which makes Han Lin quite embarrassed.

Zhang Shun has already had a rough understanding of Catholicism through Gao Yizhi and Duan Gun, and he also knows this doctrine.

Seeing Han Lin's hesitant expression, he couldn't help but smile confidently: "You know how these people have traveled thousands of miles to come to my land of China to preach?"

"Oh, I don't know why?" Han Lin was taken aback and asked involuntarily.

"Because this Catholic religion is like a rat crossing the street in the far west, everyone shouts and beats it!" Zhang Shun laughed.

It turned out that Zhang Shun had been thinking a lot these days, and finally picked up some sporadic contents from the history textbooks of his previous life from the corner of his memory.

"It is said that the priests 'in vain imitated the heart of heaven with their own hearts'. While selling the Atonement Scrolls at high prices to extract money; at the same time, they established religious inquisitions to judge and persecute sages and strangers." In fact, Zhang Shun can't remember the time and specific events, anyway. The sewage was poured on it.

"Inquisition?" Han Lin was taken aback when he heard this, it was a new and unfamiliar word.

"Yes, it's almost similar to our East Factory and West Factory, but even more vicious!" Zhang Shun nodded and said.

"They captured the so-called heretics, and they usually burned them at the stake. It is said that one named Bruno was burned alive because he insisted on the 'heliocentric theory'."

"There is also a magi named Galileo, who is not only proficient in astronomy, arithmetic, mechanics, etc., but also invented the 'telescope', and was sentenced to lifelong house arrest!"

"Under such perverse actions, everyone in the Far West is in danger, so religious reform movements have been launched one after another to resist the fearful rule of Catholicism."

"In such a situation where everyone is shouting and beating, these people have no choice but to be sent by the Pope to travel across the ocean to preach in places where they don't know their footsteps."

"How is this possible?" Hearing Zhang Shun's call, Han Lin's three views were shattered, and his world collapsed.

In fact, Zhang Shun's words are true and false, most of them are based on the memory fragments of the previous life, and they are just throwing dirty water indiscriminately.

But he didn't want to be wrong, and he just revealed the purpose of monks' preaching in the late Ming Dynasty.

It turned out that because the European religious reform movement was in full swing, the Catholic Church had to organize a well-organized Jesuit to save itself.

In addition to resisting the Reformation, the Jesuits also have missionary obligations. Matteo Ricci, Tang Ruowang, Gao Yizhi and others who came to China to preach are all members of the Jesuits.

In addition to translating some Western works to facilitate missionary work, these people actually collected local books and technology in private and secretly passed them back to Europe.

"There's a saying that' Kou can go, so can I." Seeing that Han Lin was a little shaken, Zhang Shun couldn't help but increase his strength.

"Since Mr. Han has the heart, why don't you follow the example of Master Xuanzang and go to the far west to seek the 'truth' after helping the king win the world?"

"Okay, okay, okay!" Han Lin, who was still tangled up, couldn't help but brighten his eyes when he heard Zhang Shun's words.

That's right, seeing what happened to Far West is better than hearing a hundred times.

Since these missionaries can come from afar, they can also go away, so why not!

　This chapter was written and revised, and finally finished.It involves both theory and the relationship with the "Western Fa Party" and missionaries. It is really a big brain.
