Chapter 120: The Future of Confucianism [Ask for Subscription!]
With the laughter of the two demons, the representatives of the hundred schools left in the cabin dissipated one after another, without a trace. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It turned out that this time the White Bone Spirit only invited Su Qin himself, and the rest of the delegates were all transformed by monkeys, so the so-called red crystal that could test the true body of the mastermind behind the scenes was naturally also fake.
From beginning to end, this was a trap laid against Su Qin. And this kind of trap, the white bone spirit has been carried out seven times before, and the seven representatives of the hundred schools have been deceived here and encountered the same routine.
It's just that the fake can't be true after all, and the seven representatives saved their lives. The monkey forcibly washed away the memory and put it back.
This is the stupid method that the white bone spirit said, one by one temptation, although the energy spent is huge. But their luck was obviously not bad, and they didn't try Su Qin in the end.
"Finally got rid of a piece of heart disease. Master, Mencius, Sanzang and others came together, and said with a sigh.
Bai Gujing said: "You still can't take it lightly, a Su Qin almost ruined the development plan of Confucianism, this sad reality reflects the essence of Confucianism that is now strong and strong." ”
This is a bit unkind, but neither the master nor Mencius have a temper.
Although the personalities are different, but in terms of full-time, the master is more suitable for studying knowledge, Mencius is more suitable for promoting justice, and both of them are not suitable for intrigue, or even managing a stall as big as Confucianism.
"Please follow us to the Temple of Literature and talk in detail about the future development plan of Confucianism. Mencius said.
The white bone spirit glanced at the westbound people, and said to the girl Bodhisattva standing at the end, "You go out." ”
Guanyin's cheeks twitched, and she raised her eyes and said, "Just me?"
"That's right, just yourself. The white bone spirit said, paused slightly, pointed to the canopy and the others and said, "They are my brothers." ”
Hearing this, the canopy, Sha Wujing, and the little white dragon are all hot in their hearts to varying degrees.
What is the essence of the westbound procession, it is well known. A collective that is brought together because of interests, trust has always been the most fantastic and beautiful thing.
Even if they lived and died together, even if they are still fighting side by side......
After all, alignment with external and internal disputes are two different modes of relationship.
Because of this, the three of them were moved by the trust of the white bone spirit at this moment.
"Let's go out. Taking a deep breath, Canopy said with a complicated expression: "Don't live up to the trust of the white bones!"
Sha Wujing and Little White Dragon understood the meaning of his words. It's a good thing to be trusted, but on the chessboard, they often can't help themselves.
Leaving is a good outcome for both parties.
The three of them walked out of the cabin with Guanyin, but Sanzang stayed, looking calm.
He can guarantee that he will not live up to the belief of the white bone spirit under any circumstances.
There was no external ear here, and Mencius said solemnly: "Please make it clear to the great sage." ”
The white bone spirit smiled helplessly: "Yasheng, don't be so anxious. The rise of Confucianism is not bad for this moment. What's more, I don't have a real understanding of Confucianism at all now, how wise do you think I have to be to plan the layout?"
Mencius said sincerely: "Master usually rarely directly manages the work of Confucianism, and I have survived until now, and I can't express all kinds of sadness, so I desperately hope that someone can come up with a better policy to relieve the pressure on my shoulders." ”
The white bone spirit squinted at the master, and seemed to smile: "This can be regarded as exploitation, right? ”
The master smiled: "Isn't it you coming, he will be more relaxed in the future." ”
Bone Spirit: "......"
Seeing that her gaze at him was becoming more and more strange, the master coughed lightly and began to explain the current situation of Confucianism.
After a few moments, the master gradually stopped speaking, and the white bone spirit was silent for a moment, and said, "Your current way of thinking is right, to transform Confucianism to make it more suitable for the superstructure of the secular dynasty. After a long time, there will be a style of worshipping Confucianism from top to bottom, and Confucianism will gradually become stronger. However, this method is too slow and has great drawbacks.
Once there is a change of dynasty, all your previous efforts will be in a bubble. Even if the new ruler embraced Confucianism, it would have to go through a process of reshaping. ”
Mencius nodded thoughtfully and asked curiously, "Then what do you think is the future of Confucianism?"
Bai Gujing paused slightly, and said quietly: "The emperor and the scholar rule the world together!"
"Boom!" was a short sentence, only a dozen words, but it was like an axe that opened the sky, smashing everyone's thinking.
These three realms are not the period of the Song Dynasty, let alone the Ming Dynasty, and the status of scholars is far less terrifying than in these two eras.
During the Song and Ming dynasties, the emperor and the scholar group were interdependent, mutually exploited, shared wealth, and shared power. Moreover, there is often a pattern in this relationship.
In the early period of the empire, the imperial power was dominant, and the scholar group cooperated. In the middle of the empire, the scholar group was the leader, and the imperial power cooperated and co-governed. In the later period of the empire, the scholar group even overrode the imperial power, and the power of the ministers was born, and evil was rampant.
From this, we can see how powerful the scholars were in these two dynasties.
As for the military department in the empire, heheda, any official dares to point at the face of the big man in the military department and spit on the stars.
The White Bone Spirit knew that this was a deformed pattern of development. But there is no right or wrong in the world, only positions.
From his standpoint, if he can popularize the idea that everything is inferior and only high in reading, then Confucianism will rise completely and compete with Buddhism and Taoism.
At that time, it will be a situation in which the three religions rule the world together.
At this point, the fruit position of the Confucian saint is not weaker than the fruit position of the Great Heavenly Venerable.
"Dare to ask the Great Sage, how can we do this?" Mencius asked: "Nowadays, even the Tang Empire, where Confucianism is most flourishing, is deliberately reducing the power of Confucianism and increasing the power of imperial power...... I guess no emperor wants to see the situation you mentioned happening, right?"
The White Bone Spirit narrowed his eyes and said, "If you want to accomplish this goal, you need to grasp two things first. ”
"What are the two?" asked the Master.
"The people's heart, the people's will!" Bai Gujing's voice gradually became excited, and he said angrily: "The iron people, the emperor of flowing water, as long as Confucianism can control the people's hearts and opinions, no matter how strong the emperor is, he has to use Confucianism to manage the empire, this is the premise of ruling the world together!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the hall was silent.
After a long time, Mencius's throat was inexplicably dry, and he asked in a hoarse voice: "Do ordinary people really have such a powerful power, and what means can we rely on to control this power?"
How great is the power of the people? The white bone spirit subconsciously remembered the red in his previous life, the huge country standing in the east, and murmured: "The people have gathered together and dared to change the sun and the moon into a new sky! As for how to achieve this level, I have a complete plan in my heart, you can listen to it first......
