Master Kong Zhongni

Chapter 122 I am Zhou Li!
Zaiyu took a closer look at this article, and felt that although it was too idealistic, it should not be deleted or changed.

Because any legislation must be supported by legal principles.

In war, you must learn from others.

Reforms, of course, must be justified.

If one day he holds power and intends to promote land publicization, Zhou Lizhong's regulation will provide firm legislative support for his reform measures.

At that time, if someone dares to jump out and sing a different tune, Zai Yu can use Zhou Li to suppress him.

How dare you oppose me?
If you oppose me, you are opposing Zhou Li!
To oppose Zhou Li is to oppose Zhou Gong!
To oppose the Duke of Zhou is to oppose the Son of Heaven!
To oppose the Son of Heaven is to oppose civilized society!
To oppose civilized society is to be a barbarian!
Since he is a barbarian, come here, push him to the head of the owl!
Thinking of this, Jai Yu suddenly understood one thing.

When he was reading "Han Feizi" in the library, he discovered that after his master died of illness, Confucianism split into eight factions.

Among them is Zi Zhang's Confucianism, which has a profound influence on Mohism, with the guiding principle of "a scholar sees danger and dies, sees it and thinks righteousness".

There is a school of thought based on "The Doctrine of the Mean", who proposes to imitate the ancient sage kings, and take "benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and sage" as the code of life, and is known as the "Confucianism of Taoism".

There are Confucians of the Yan family who live in peace and happiness, study knowledge, cultivate virtue, and use "Poems" to remonstrate from time to time.

There are Confucians of the Meng family who take the thought of "benevolent government" and "people-oriented" as the guiding principle, and lobby the kings everywhere, hoping that they can implement the "kingly way".

He is a Confucian of the Qidiao family who is educated but not good at officialdom, and believes that good and evil are indistinguishable in human nature, and he should do justice with the sword, eradicate rape and evil, and caress the good and the weak.

There is Confucianism of the Zhongliang family who swings between Confucianism and Legalism.

There are Confucians of the Sun family who abandon the etiquette in etiquette and law, stride forward all the way in the direction of law, and are incompatible with other schools of Sun's Confucianism.

There are Confucians of the Lezheng family who use history as a guide to the present and regard "Spring and Autumn" as their standard.

There is also the Xihe School, which was jointly expelled from Confucianism by these eight schools and led by Zixia, Zigong and their students.

In addition, there are also small sects like Shang Qu who are dedicated to studying the "Book of Changes".

It's just that because they have little influence, no one pays attention to them.

Anyway, since the death of Master Da, the chaotic scene of Confucianism is no different from this chaotic world.

Everyone has their own opinions, and each school interprets "Zhou Li" differently, and the understanding of the words of the Master is even more varied.

They fought with each other, fought against dissidents, and when they encountered problems that they couldn't justify, they expelled the other party's Confucianism and accused the opposition of being lowly Confucianism.

Zaiyu couldn't understand the reason why they did this before, but today he deleted and deleted "Zhou Li", and finally understood the reason why these unfilial descendants did this.

They blatantly criticize different viewpoints, where is it for discussing knowledge!

These little bastards are clearly fighting for the right to interpret the words of the Master and "Zhou Li"!

In Confucianism, "Zhou Li" is the golden rule, and the master is also a sage who can't be shaken. Whoever gets the right to explain, what he says has weight.

After Master, Meng Ke, a Confucian of the Meng family, prevailed first, so "benevolence" became "benevolent government", "people-oriented" and "human nature is good".

Afterwards, Xun Kuang, the Confucian of the Sun family, gained the upper hand, so "benevolence" became "heaven has permanence", "heaven and man are separated", "human nature is evil, and the good is false".

Later, Xun Kuang's student Han Fei didn't even bother to put on the Confucian skin. Although he still respected his master as a saint in the book, he no longer regarded himself as a Confucian scholar at all.

Moreover, he respected his master as a sage for the purpose of setting up a memorial archway, not for the sake of benevolence, righteousness and morality.

The manuscript of "Han Feizi" was written by Zaiyu early in the morning, but he has never shown it.

If you give that book to Master, Zaiyu will know everything with his ass, Master will definitely curse angrily.

These little bastards of later generations really didn't remember any of the Master's teachings!

He advertises that he is the heir of Master, but all he thinks about is fighting for power and profit!
This unhealthy trend must be stopped from the source!

Since everyone is selling private goods, let's just sell mine together!

At least my goods are closer to Master!

When Zaiyu thought of this, he became more confident in revising "Zhou Li".

He picked up the pen and was about to continue working on his revised edition, but unexpectedly the door of his house shook suddenly.

"Huh?" Zigong's voice sounded outside: "My son! Why can't you open the door of your house?"

Jai Yu was so frightened that his little hands trembled, and he hurriedly stuffed the things on the table into the box, and then hurriedly removed the things and opened the door.

As soon as Zi Gong entered the door, he was choked by the flying dust all over the room and coughed again and again.

"What did you do just now? How did you do this?"

Jae Yu said nonsense, "I'm not going to change to a bigger house? I'm a person of status now, so it's not appropriate to live in this small crappy house."

Zigong found the ceramic bowl in Zaiyu's house familiarly, and poured a bowl of water from the pitcher to drink.

"It's true, you now have land and land, and you are about to be promoted to a small pedestrian.

It's really unethical to live in this kind of house for a dignified doctor. "

"Huh?" Zaiyu was taken aback: "Little pedestrian? Doctor?"

Zi Gong admired the subtle expression of astonishment on Jai Yu's face, he came here today just to watch Jae Yu go mad.

"Don't you know? I heard that Ji Sunsi and others tried their best to ask for a reward for you in front of the king, saying that you are brave, resourceful, eloquent, and have made great achievements.

That's why I want to promote you two ranks in a row, directly surpass Yuanshi, and promote you to be a doctor, and take up the position of a small pedestrian! "

"Me? Doctor?"

Zai Yu pointed at himself, his serious face, which had been tense for a long time, almost couldn't be maintained, and the corners of his mouth twitched again and again.

"Zi... Zi... Zigong, you are making fun of me, aren't you?"

Although scholars and officials are usually expressed together, scholars and officials cannot be regarded as the same thing after all.

As a soldier, he has stepped into the class of power, but after all, he is just a role of obeying orders.

The doctor is a completely different concept.

A doctor will have his own fief, and in his fief, a doctor is equivalent to a king.

He can recruit retainers, freely appoint officials to manage the fiefdom, organize and train the garrison force to defend the fief, and decide various administrative measures for governing the fief.

Because of this, Jae Yu has found it hard to accept the fact that he is already so awesome.

While drinking water, Zigong watched Zaiyu's abstract expression that neither looked like crying nor smiling.

Zaiyu repeatedly confirmed: "Master said: people don't have faith, and they don't know what to do. Zigong, you really didn't lie to me?"

Zigong said: "Why am I lying to you? The promotion orders for me, Zizhou and Ziyou have been issued early in the morning. Haven't you ever wondered why your reward has not been issued?"

"I've thought about it! I thought it was because I said something wrong in the palace that day, so the king made me pay off my merits and demerits."

Zigong had heard Zaiyu's remarks in the palace for a long time, he curled his lips and said.

"It is true that what you said in the palace that day was inappropriate, but it was not your fault. How can you be blamed for the question the monarch asked himself?
Besides, this time Ji Sunsi, Mengsun Heji, Yang Hu and others jointly requested for you.Even if the monarch is not happy, he still has to consider their opinions. "

Zigong's words were a reassurance for Zaiyu.

He thought about it, and suddenly asked: "You just said that Zi Zhou and Zi You also received rewards, what is their reward?"

"What else is there? Both of them are common people. The reward is of course the title of corporal, plus some property.

Ziyou took the post of cook, and Zizhou served as Fubushi. "

Hearing this, Zai Yu glared and said, "Sanfu? Fu Bushi? Isn't this just a cook playing a monkey with a bird?"

Zi Gong said disapprovingly: "Don't worry about what they are doing, at least they have eaten in the office, right?"

"That's not okay, I have to take care of it!"

Zaiyu lifted his robe and ran outside.

Seeing this, Zigong got up quickly and asked, "What are you doing?!"

"I'm going to be a doctor soon! How can my younger brother be a cook and an animal trainer!
The title of corporal can be claimed, but the two of them should not be officials in the office. Isn’t it better to be a magistrate or Sima for me than a cook or a bird walker? "

　Recommendation tickets and monthly tickets are like floating clouds in the sky, there is nowhere to stay.

　　But no matter how they flow, they never leave the author's pocket, it's just that he doesn't discover it himself.
