Confucian self-cultivation: Scholars start from Daqin

"call……"

Gao Jing let out a breath suddenly, opened his eyes, and wrote down the three Qin characters of "Governing the Country" on the bamboo slips.

Then he continued to write without hesitation: "Three emperors and five emperors are based on virtue, civil and military Zhou Gong is governed by propriety, five tyrants and seven heroes are kings, and the four seas belong to one.

Throughout the past and present, those who rule by men are kings, those who rule by law are tyrants, and those who abandon the hegemony and become kings are hard to defend their country, and those who abandon the king and become hegemons are hard to accept their hearts.The seven kingdoms are united into one, which has never happened in ancient times. It is easy to conquer their land, but it is difficult to accept their hearts. The king and hegemony should not be abandoned. "

Then start a new line and write "The Rule of Man"...

Dongjun just watched silently from the side, the more he looked, the rounder his small mouth was, and the more shocked his face became.

Right now, the Seven Kingdoms have not yet been unified, but what Gao Jing wrote at this time is the governance strategy after the unification of the world, and it is both ancient and modern, which is justified...

At least in Dongjun's view, each of them hit the point and gave a strategy.

When one volume of bamboo slips was finished, Gao Jing changed another volume and continued to write "The Rule of Law", Dong Jun couldn't wait to take the finished bamboo slips and read them carefully.

Amazing!

This was Dongjun's only thought.

Looking at the scroll of bamboo slips in his hand, Dongjun discovered for the first time, what is a country, what are the people, what is governing the country, and what is governing the people!

In this volume of "Government of People", Gao Jing clearly divides a country into several types of people. The thoughts of these types of people are clearly stated, and corresponding governance is given for these people's different thoughts. method……

Although this is just a general outline, from this general outline, Dongjun suddenly had the idea of ​​"With this, I can also govern the country"......

……

I don't know how long it has been, but Gao Jing has finished writing the third volume.

Dongjun is still obsessed with the first volume: after reading it for the first time, you can see clearly what the people are; after reading it for the second time, you can see clearly the minds of the people; after reading it for the third time, you can see how to meet the needs of all parties... …

It may seem obvious at first glance, but every time Dongjun reads it, he will have a new understanding.

She couldn't understand how this child, who was only thirteen or fourteen years old, could analyze a country so vividly!

In the "Government by Man" chapter of "Governance of the Country", she sees Confucianism, Legalism, Taoism, Mohism, and even the Yin-Yang School...the ideas of various schools of thought seem to be included in it.

This is the real school of learning!

"Boom boom boom!"

A slight knock on the door interrupted Dongjun, and immediately made her look away from the bamboo slips in dissatisfaction.

Gao Jing also stopped writing and looked at her amusedly.

Dong Jun suddenly felt a little ashamed, and asked angrily, "What's the matter? Didn't I say that no one is allowed to disturb you?"

A nervous voice came from outside: "Master Dongjun, Xiangguo Changping Lord is here to visit."

Dong Jun was taken aback: "What is he doing here?"

Gao Jing sighed slightly, put down his pen, and rolled up the bamboo slips in front of him.

"3.9 Mr. Changping is here to visit Mr. Gao Jing." Answered outside the door.

Gao Jing just got up, shook his head and said, "I thought I could avoid these things by hiding in Yinyang's house, but I didn't expect..."

Dongjun suddenly became more and more ashamed.

Mr. Changping actually made the disciples of the Yin Yang family disobey her order to disturb Gao Jing...

And it's still in the stronghold of the Yin Yang family...

And this Gao Jing, actually used the Yin Yang family from the very beginning...

Dongjun suddenly felt that the Yin Yang family had become a tool in the hands of these people, being used without knowing it.

Dongjun's voice was as cold as the twelfth lunar month: "What kind of benefits did Changping Lord give you..."

"Okay, I'll go down and meet him."

Gao Jing waved his hand and said, "I won't get involved with your Yin Yang family's affairs."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Downstairs, Gao Jing met the current Prime Minister of Qin, Mi Qi, Lord Changping.

Surnamed Mi, surnamed Xiong, named Qi, the son of King Chu Kaolie, the last King of Chu... It seems inaccurate to say that, the Overlord of Western Chu is also the King of Chu.

Now, as the prime minister of the state of Qin, Mr. Changping naturally has an aura of nobility, but standing there makes people feel like worshiping.

But it's useless to Gao Jing.

After looking at him twice, Gao Jing stepped forward to salute and said, "Confucian Gao Jing, I have met Mr. Changping."

Mi Qi was also looking at Gao Jing. Although he had learned about it from his own channels, when he saw him face to face, he was still surprised by his youth and sighed at his extraordinary bearing: "Mi Qi has met Mr. Gao Jing, and I heard that Mr. Qin, Mi Qi is very itchy, please forgive me for making an unexpected visit."

"Mr. Changping was joking, please!"

"Please!"

The two parties sat on their knees in separate cases, and a disciple from the Yin Yang family came to serve tea.

Like all nobles, the two sides chatted first, then exchanged knowledge, and then "unintentionally" led the topic to topic 17.

"Sir, you entered Qin and walked all the way, how do you see me in Qin?" Mi Qi asked.

Gao Jing said solemnly: "The Qin people are simple and forge ahead, there is no melody, they are neatly dressed, there are no strange clothes, they respect the law, and they do not break the law."

In the same way, it can be explained from different angles, why "nothing" is because Qin law prohibits it!

Mi Qi smiled proudly: "In that case, sir, would you like to serve Qin? Mi Qi would like to recommend you to the king."

Gao Jing squinted his eyes, and pretended to be moved: "Oh? I don't know what position it is?"

Mi Qi smiled and said: "With your reputation and talent, you can take the position of Shangqing!"

Gao Jing drank his tea, noncommittal.

Mi Qi said again: "Since Ganluo, Qin has no senior ministers of Mr.'s age. What do you think, Mr.?"

Gao Jing smiled and said: "Mencius once said, if you want to rule the world, in today's world, who can do it better than me?"

Mi Qi's face darkened, and he said: "Could it be that Mr. Zhizhi is in the Qin State? Not everyone can be in this position!"

Gao Jing asked curiously, "Is Mr. Changping really scaring me?"

Mi Qi's tone was cold: "So what?"

Gao Jing couldn't help laughing.

Mi Qi: "Why are you laughing, sir?"

Gao Jing waved his hand and said, "Don't blame Changping Lord, Jing just remembered an allusion, so he laughed."

Mi Qi wondered, "What is the allusion?"

Gao Jing said with a smile: "Back then, Hui Shi was Prime Minister in Liang State, Zhuang Zi wanted to see this good friend, someone hastily reported to Hui Zi, saying: Zhuang Zi came to Liang State with malicious intentions, and wanted to replace your position.

Huizi panicked and wanted to stop Zhuangzi, so he sent people to search the capital for three days and three nights.

On the third day, Zhuangzi visited and said, "There is a bird in the south called the Chick. Have you heard of it?"The chick spread its wings.Flying from the South China Sea to the North Sea, no place to live unless it is a phoenix tree, no food unless it is practiced fruit, no drink unless it is a sweet spring.

At this time, an owl was eating a rotting mouse with relish, when a chick flew overhead.

The owl hastily protected the rotting mouse, raised its head and screamed to scare the chicks...

Now Mr. Changping is also scaring me..."

Mi Qi's face suddenly became ugly, staring at Gao Jing said: "In the eyes of Mr. Qin, is the aspect of Qin State a "rotten rat"?"

"It varies from person to person!"

Gao Jing shook his head, and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Changping, I don't expect extravagance from Qin's current status."

Mi Qi stared at Gao Jing for a long time before saying, "Then I will take what Mr. said is true."

"Naturally!" Gao Jing nodded affirmatively.

Seeing Gao Jing's affirmative tone, Mi Qi's face looked better.

The conversation between the two sides returned to amicable.

……

While Gao Jing was talking with Mr. Changping downstairs, Mr. Dong was still reading the bamboo slips written by Gao Jing upstairs.

There was a slight breeze.

Dong Jun suddenly came back to his senses, and saw a figure covered in a gorgeous burqa quietly appearing beside the case.

He is also holding one of the three scrolls of bamboo slips written by Gao Jing.

Dongjun got up quickly: "I have met His Excellency Donghuang Taiyi."

There was inevitably surprise in the tone.

She had never seen Donghuang Taiyi leave the East Palace.

"Thunder fills with rain, chirps chirp and night sings, wind rustles and trees rustle, misses you and leaves you alone."

Donghuang Taiyi looked at the bamboo slips in his hand, and his voice seemed to come from afar: "The astrology has changed, this is the source!"

Dong Jun was startled, and then he felt it was a matter of course: "These three bamboo slips can really change the world!"

"If there is a man who loves the mountain, he is taken by Xue Lixi to take a female dill. He can look at him and laugh, and Zi Muyu is kind and graceful. He rides on a red leopard and follows a raccoon dog. Take Du Heng, fold Fangxin and leave behind thoughts..."

Donghuang Taiyi disappeared without a trace in this sound that seemed to be singing but not singing.

After a moment of silence, Dongjun said, "Yes, 460 blows from Donghuang Pavilion!"

……

The two people who were "talking happily" downstairs also heard this voice that sounded like a song but not a song.

Mi Qi asked suspiciously, "Sir, what is this?"

Gao Jing looked at him strangely, and said, "Mr. Changping is from Chu. Could it be that this is the "mountain ghost" in Qu Yuan's "Nine Songs"?"

No wonder you know!

Mi Qi thought to himself, but was also shocked by Gao Jing's erudition, and said: "Although Qi is from Chu, he was born in Qin State and grew up in Qin State. He already regarded himself as a Qin State."

Gao Jing sighed and said, "That's right, if you eat in Qin and earn money in Qin, if you rebel against Qin, I'm afraid it will be intolerable in the world."
