Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 421

Uncle Fu Qiu's words were really not made up by himself.

After all, Bo Fu Qiu was not Liu Chang, so he couldn't make up allusions. This is what Li Si asked Xun Zi at the beginning. Li Si asked his teacher, "You always say that the soldiers of justice are soldiers, but fighting is all about fighting. Where does justice come from?" ?Xunzi told him that the soldiers of benevolence and righteousness are to prevent violence and eliminate harm, so the places they stay will be fully governed, and the places they pass will be influenced by education, just like the rain falling in time, no one is not happy!
The army of benevolence and righteousness gallops across the world, loving their kindness near, admiring their morality from afar, and before blood is smeared on the blade of a weapon, people from far and near come to join, and the virtues are so great that they will affect the four corners of the world. very far away.

This has already brought a certain halo to China at that time, and during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, a large number of gentlemen emerged. Many of these gentlemen's ideas were pedantic and backward in the eyes of later generations, but at that time they represented China. Moral standards, this kind of theory that resembles a "lighthouse" really existed at the time, and it cannot be said that this theory is wrong. After all, the "lighthouse" has also really "shined" at times.

And this is the first time Liu Chang heard this theory.

At the moment of hearing this, Liu Chang's heart ignited a raging flame. This statement seems to be really good.

The tyrant's eyes burned with fire.

But Zhou Chang's heart was like an ice cube, extremely cold.

He looked at Uncle Fuqiu in surprise, he really couldn't understand, as Xunzi's disciple, the Confucian Zhengzong, how could he still persuade His Majesty to go down and use the army?Soldiers are used to protect themselves, not to bully others! !
And Bo Fu Qiu's remarks clearly gave the tyrant an excuse. In the future, no matter where the tyrant sends troops, he will be able to use the excuse of "Zhao Zhao Destiny", is this still good? ?
Just when Zhou Chang couldn't understand it, Uncle Fuqiu said: "Your Majesty, the people of the world can't understand His Majesty's thoughts, thinking that His Majesty's teacher is unknown, His Majesty can declare the world, and let everyone in the world know the truth of the soldiers of benevolence and righteousness, At the same time, please give orders to the generals that when they are crusades against bandits, they should not harm innocent people, be kind to women, children, and the elderly, and not loot their grain or burn their farmland."

"There are kings and nobles who do not have ministers, and they can be killed, but they cannot be implicated in the people under their command. They can use the food secreted by these unruly kings to distribute to the people, teach them with etiquette, and spread the knowledge of sages and sages. Use the law to constrain their behavior, so that they can farm with peace of mind, feel the benevolence of Your Majesty, reduce their taxes, conduct corvée on them less frequently, and don’t treat them as slaves.”

"The big Han's army is not to compete for their land, nor is it to enslave their people!"

"King Mahan disrespected the envoys of the Han, tried to murder the governor of the Han, attacked the caravan of the Han, and in the country, he used close friends, killed the people by freezing, and forced his own people to build a palace for him in the cold winter. It is said that , In order to build that palace, more than [-] people were frozen to death!!!”

"He married his own sister, which violated human relations and lost his conscience!"

"For such a person, His Majesty sent troops to crusade him, not only to punish the traitors, but also to save his people. His Majesty can make King Yan and others not kill the people to pretend to be military exploits during the war, so as to appease the people along the road and treat them kindly. , without destroying the arable land and houses, distributing the grain hidden in the granary by the kingless king to the people, exempting them from taxes, preaching the virtue of the great man, and preaching the guilt of the king of Mahan!"

What Fu Qiubo said was very imposing.

Liu Changdu was stunned for a long time, then clapped his hands violently.

"You're right!! I crusade against bad guys! This is destiny!!"

"I'm ordering!"

Hearing this conversation, Zhou Chang seemed to understand something.

"If Your Majesty wants to build an army of benevolence and righteousness, you must practice according to Xunzi's ideas, not only to tempt you with military merit, but also to be based on benevolence, righteousness and morality, with the world in mind, and an army that does not offend the common people. The soldier of righteousness!"

Looking at the chattering Uncle Fu Qiu, Chang Liu was already on top.

Zhou Chang was silent, why did he feel more and more that what this guy said was so reasonable? ? ?

In the same month, Liu Chang went to Taixue, and Fuqiu Bo discussed the soldiers.

Liu Chang denounced King Mahan for his ruthlessness, and ordered: Do not harm the people of Mahan.

And Fu Qiu Bo personally wrote an article "Tian Lun", which was published on the Dahandi Newspaper. This article with the same name as Xunzi's article immediately caused a shock in the world's academic circles. Many of Xunzi's words were at that time. It seems unrealizable to people. Xunzi has made evaluations in almost all aspects, but in terms of the army, what he thinks is a strong army sounds a bit mysterious.

When he talked about his ideal army, he commented like this:

Generals died for the drums, drivers of chariots died by the reins, officials at all levels died in their duties, soldiers died in the ranks, and no one flinched!

If you hear the sound of the drums, you will move forward, and if you hear the sound of the cymbals and cymbals, you will retreat. You can absolutely obey the order!
Don't kill the old and infirm, don't trample crops, don't chase down enemies who retreat without fighting, don't let go of those who resist, don't arrest and abuse those who come to surrender!

Those who fight and kill are not to fight and kill the people, but to fight and kill those who disturb the people!
Many people think that Xunzi's proposition is a good idea, but it can't be realized at all. How could there be such an army? ?
But Fu Qiu Bo's actions now seem to be gradually realizing Xunzi's original proposition. The theory of heaven is a good proof. Nowadays, people of the Han Dynasty do not dare to mention sacrifices or the like. , did not dare to make a decision by divination, and now, Bo Fuqiu advocates the army of benevolence and righteousness.

Fu Qiubo believes that the generals should first know this truth, let them know the destiny they have, and then arrange special officers to instill these ideas in the soldiers, let them know what they are fighting for, and let them know benevolence and righteousness The truth, only the three armies know this truth and implement it, then the big man is the invincible army in the world.

Because of benevolence, enemies who are ready to fight will put down their weapons and go to war.

Originally, after each family owned the Dibao, they still played their own way. They all published some arguments of their own schools for scholars all over the world to take a look at. Home Wars.

It was Huang Lao who made the first move. Huang Lao’s Di Bao criticized Fu Qiu Bo’s thoughts with disdain, believing that he was hiding for the militants, and aimed directly at the Confucian tradition of hiding relatives. He believes that Bo Fuqiu advocates war to achieve the purpose of conquering and looting under the pretext of manifest destiny. His mouth is full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and all he does is cannibalism!
Immediately, the Mo family, who was too tightly bound with Huang Lao, took action. As the inheritor of the non-offensive theory, Chen Tao denounced the actions of Uncle Fuqiu, believing that Uncle Fuqiu interprets unjust wars as just, and its impact on the future is simply It is devastating, it is really the first villain in the big man! !

The peasant family immediately posted that the peasant family, who had always been the mortal enemy of Confucianism, also reprimanded Uncle Fu Qiu, but he never gave any good excuse.

Various schools of thought are working together, and Confucianism itself is a little confused, not knowing whether to get involved.

Facing the siege of the crowd, Fu Qiubo was not afraid at all.

If you talk about politics, then I'm far inferior to those senior brothers, and I'm not your opponent, but if you want to debate knowledge with me, then I'll have to talk to you.

For the first time, Bo Fu Qiu showed what is called the True Biography of Xun Zi.

He first reprimanded Huang Lao's prince, thinking that he is a narrow-minded butcher. These barbarians are fighting against the big Han because they don't understand etiquette. Now you are against us to educate them. This is not forcing them to become villains. Then let the big man kill them? ?Punishing without teaching is simply a ruthless butcher! !

Then of course it was Chen Tao. He first insulted the Mo family, he was a fatherless beast, and then said that Chen Tao had not thoroughly studied the knowledge of beasts. The education of the people is the best embodiment of universal love. I even love the people outside the Great Wall, but you say that what I said is wrong?So should I be non-attack, or should I love both?Even the knowledge of beasts is not as good as those of beasts!You are telling me! !
When Chen Tao saw this article, he fainted in anger on the spot. If the imperial doctor hadn't arrived in time, the great Han Shang Fangling would have died immediately.

Fu Qiu Bo successively humiliated all the many schools of thought, and published an article "Jin Fei Twelve Sons".

Aside from various schools, Bo Fu Qiu scolded all the Confucian insiders. Bo Fu Qiu did more than Xunzi in this regard because he scolded all the same schools. Zhang Cang, Lu Jia, Mao Heng, etc. , no one can escape.

By the way, there is only no criticism of the peasant family. Instead, this is the biggest humiliation to the peasant family. Everyone in the peasant family jumped in anger, saying that they were going to Taixue to find the theory of Fu Qiubo. You are scolding me. ! ! !

Fu Qiubo's fighting power shocked all the schools, and re-examined this disciple of Xunzi.

This battle, at this moment, has become a tyrant's greatest pleasure.

"Come on! Come on! Have you bought it back?"

Standing at the door, Liu Chang looked at Lu Lu who was galloping in the distance, and couldn't help crying.

Lu Lu nodded and took out a lot of newspapers, which Liu Chang snatched away. The two walked into the palace and looked at them impatiently.

"Hahaha, sure enough, the prince can't sit still!!"

Liu Chang looked at the Huang Laodi Newspaper in his hand, "Eunuch Fuqiu is amazing!! It forced the prince to start swearing, haha, what does this look like? Hurry up, let Chao Cuo come in, I can't see this part. understood!"

Chao Cuo ran in quickly, sat beside Liu Chang, and helped Liu Chang analyze.

"Your Majesty, this allusion is from Gongsun."

"Just what do you mean! What did he want to say?!"

"Oh, he wants to talk about Duke Fuqiu's sophistry. He doesn't dare to use his knowledge to compete, so he can only use some sophistication to force his reasoning and say that such a debate has no meaning at all."

Liu Chang shook his head, "No, no, the prince has nothing to say, look at Chen Tao's side!"

"Uh, the Mo family didn't send a residence report today."

"Where's the farmhouse?"

"The farmer sent it, look!"

Liu Chang hurriedly flipped through the pages and laughed again, "This farmer can't sit still, this is scolding the Fuqiu Gong clan by name, how did they find out so clearly? Haha, it's a pity Now, they still didn't dare to scold Xunzi!"

Lu Lu glanced at Liu Chang, they weren't stupid and insulted Xunzi, why don't you have to go off the court and have a physical debate in person? ?
Seeing Liu Chang, who was so addicted to reading the Dibao newspaper every day that he couldn't extricate himself with a smile on his face, Chao Cuo asked helplessly, "Your Majesty, do you allow them to quarrel like this?"

"If they don't quarrel, why would I set up a newspaper?"

"By the way, why don't you legalists participate?"

Chao Cuo was stunned for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Your Majesty is an important minister."

"It's boring without you legalists, go and write, just write what you think in your heart!"

"only!!"

After sending Chao Cuo away, Liu Chang rubbed his hands excitedly and looked at Lu Lu who was beside him, "This is the first time I am so happy because of my studies, hahaha, these people are really amazing, especially Duke Fuqiu, who is an enemy with one enemy. Hundreds of people, no wonder I was able to follow my tongue to argue with everyone, and not fall behind!"

Lu Lu nodded, and he also admitted that this fellow is quite capable of learning, especially his ability to scold people. This is inherited from Xunzi, right? ?

Liu Chang looked at the Confucian newspaper in his hand again, and said with a smile: "This Jia Yi and Mao Chang are both gone, it seems that these young people are not bad. Jia Yi and Mao Chang are both fellow students of Duke Fuqiu, but Jia Yi supports them. His theory, but Mao Chang objected to him, what they said was reasonable, and An's wife is not bad. It seems that he is going to scold Jia Yi, but he probably can't scold Jia Yi. of!"

"Ahem, Your Majesty, it's a debate, a debate."

"Oh, yes, probably Jia Yi can't argue."

"How about Yan Kingdom?"

"King Yan has already listened to your opinion, Xu Li and Zhou Shengzhi have launched an attack at the same time, and the battle situation has not yet been heard."

Zhou Chang, who was busy in the mansion at the moment, looked at the mansion newspaper in front of him and was a little dazed.

He never imagined that his own persuasion would actually make the hundreds of schools of thought burst into such great vitality, such a huge debate of hundreds of schools of thought seems to have never happened in the past, and all schools are shaking people. Scholars from all over the world are gradually participating, and the scale of this debate is unknown.

But these academic disputes have little to do with Zhou Chang.

Various memorials were placed in front of Zhou Chang.

Chidao has been repaired for many years. At present, several of the Central Plains Chidao that Qin State set up in the Central Plains area have been repaired, and the repair is far from enough. The current territory of the Han Dynasty is compared with that of the original Qin State. It is too big. In many places, the Qin State did not build Chidao at the beginning. In these places, the big man can only come by himself, and there is no way to inherit the convenience of the Qin State.

And as long as this type of corvée cannot be slackened, the figures written by Zhou Chang are all families.

Corruption and this kind of thing, if there are some mistakes, it will lead to very serious consequences.

Now, a road is also being built between Zhao and Yan, and Xuan Yi is currently in charge.

Because of this war, the corvée will only last a few more years.

Just when Zhou Chang was busy, someone came in.

"Patriarch, the Marquis of Pingyang came to visit."

"Marquis of Pingyang??"

A hint of displeasure flashed on Zhou Chang's face, but he said helplessly, "I'll go meet him in person."

Cao Cheng, Marquis of Pingyang, Wanhu Marquis of the Eight Classics, son of Cao Can.

Zhou Chang had nothing to do with him, and Zhou Chang didn't like this person very much, but, after all, he was the elder brother of the current queen and the son of Cao Xiang, so he couldn't be too rude.

Soon, the two met each other, and Zhou Chang invited him into the house.

Cao Cheng calmly began to greet each other and asked him warmly. Zhou Chang had a lot of things to do, so he asked rudely: "What is the reason for you to come to me?"

Cao Cheng was stunned for a moment, then said with a wry smile, "That's right, my grandfather had a very good friend back then. He was imprisoned in Tingwei's prison because of some minor mistakes. It has been a long time. His family was very anxious, they found me and hoped that I could help, I went to Zhang Shizhi, but Zhang Shizhi was unwilling to pay attention to me."

Hearing these words, Zhou Chang's face became even more ugly.

He said coldly: "If that's the case, Duke Lun, Tingwei and Lieutenant can all handle this matter, but privately, the Queen is closer to you, why don't you go to them? I still have something to deal with, Qing, please leave. ."

Cao Cheng hurriedly said: "Empress Xianhui, I dare not tell her about this, lest I spoil her relationship with Your Majesty."

"It's not easy for the Marquis of Pingyang to understand this truth."

"Marquis Yi of Pingyang has made a great contribution, allowing you to own [-] households of food, your sisters all serve the king in the palace, and your nephew even became a prince, but you made a mistake in Qi before and tarnished you. Your father's reputation has also brought shame to the empress and the others. Now that you are in Chang'an, you have never been short of food and clothing, but you are still involved in such things. How are you going to meet the Marquis of Pingyang in the future?"

These words made Cao Cheng feel ashamed and angry, so he immediately covered his face and did not dare to see Zhou Chang again.

Seeing that his old friend's son was so cowardly, Zhou Chang was still a little soft-hearted, "What's your father's friend's name, and what kind of crime did he commit?"

"His name is Sima Jizhu, and he committed the crime of divination."

"You're lying!! Although Zhang Shizhi is strict, he is a gentleman!! If it's just divination, how could he keep that person in custody for so long?!"

"I don't understand that either."

"Okay, I understand, you can go back."

"Thank you, Father Zhong!"

Looking at Cao Cheng who left in aggrieved, Zhou Chang just shook his head.

"Alas, tiger father and dog son."

I can’t type out the names of many people, and then I can only code them manually. , the old wolf’s JP may not be suitable for language codewords, but fortunately Chapter 2 has been written.
