Looking at Xiaohu's back, Wu Ling felt more and more satisfied with him. Indeed, Xiaohu's ability is still very good, especially since the other party is not contaminated with the problems of some other soldiers, he is still just a real soldier, not like other soldiers who have gradually begun to become officials.

Huaguo officialdom is a rather special place. Its members' composition, living conditions, lifestyles, environmental atmosphere, and rules of the game are all very different from those of other social strata. Hence the creation of a special "field effect". This kind of officialdom field effect has been produced and developed for two or three thousand years. A culture has been formed, and this is the culture of officialdom.

The officialdom culture of China has a long history and profound accumulation. Legalism, military school, Confucianism and other schools of thought, as well as the emperors and ministers of the past dynasties, and the eunuchs and concubines of the harem have all contributed to its development.

This culture, at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, finally had a preliminary summary. These techniques, which were originally "not suitable for outsiders", are only hidden in history and secretly taught by officialdom. It was systematically interpreted by Mr. Li Zongwu, the leader of the Houhei Sect. He discovered: "A twenty-four history, in a word, is cheeky and black-hearted." He has a wonderful exposition on thick black science: "Joy, anger, sorrow and happiness are not called thick, and there is no scruples, it is called black, and those who are thick are the foundation of the world, and those who are black are also the avenues of the world." To the thick black, the world is afraid, the ghosts and gods are afraid, the faint monarchs and traitors are all thick and not black, even if the famous monarchs and virtuous ministers are not necessarily thin and white. It can be seen that in China, "if you are not completely brazen, you cannot become a traitor." This is a three-point hole in the political darkness and officialdom corruption of China's traditional totalitarian society!

Mr. Sogo summed up the six-character mantra of seeking officials and doing officials, and the "sawing arrow method" and "mending pot method" used to do things are the officialdom philosophy pursued by the Chinese officialdom. These officialdom philosophies. First of all, those who seek to be officials must have a strong desire for power. And be good at speculation. Damage to the public and private. We must not hesitate to lower our personality and grovel. will sneer on the shoulders and slap the horse. We must dare to deceive our subordinates and conceal our superiors by unscrupulous means. To be able to pretend to be deaf and dumb, it is rare to be confused. Not only does it not need to be responsible, but it is also responsible. And for the sake of personal interests, they will be able to brag, be good at prevarication, and even dare to do things badly, and dare to be irresponsible. It is such a group that pursues unspoken rules and a negative moral philosophy of life, which fills the ruling class of China. dominates the history of Huaguo. No wonder Ming Confucian Gu Yanwu said bitterly: "The shamelessness of the scholar is a shame for the country!" ”

In Chinese society, the mainstream society and civil society have not been able to reach agreement for a long time in terms of value orientation, judgment of right and wrong, moral norms, code of conduct, and rules of the game. There are even obvious divergences and contrasts. It is quite doubtful that such a society will achieve long-term stable and orderly and gradual development.

In the emergence of Chinese officialdom culture, Legalist figures were the early founders. The political philosophy, the philosophy of life, and the philosophy of life pursued by the Legalist figures are quite unified. Their political philosophy has been completely copied into the philosophy of life. Guiguzi's "Speculation" and "Mo" two articles. Han Fei's "Eight Techniques of Affairs" can be said to be the beginning of the officialdom's affairs. The ideological core of the Legalist characters can be summed up as "imperial art" in a word. (In the future, many Confucian-legal compatible figures of the "imperial teacher" dream also came from this). Politically, it advocates respect for the monarch and strengthens the power of the monarch. He advocated power politics and superstitious totalitarian rule, with repression as the main means. Thus, it provided a theoretical basis for the tyranny, unscrupulousness, meanness, and unkindness of the later rulers of China, who regarded the lives of the people as grass. In terms of their philosophy of life, their desire for fame and fortune is particularly serious. Pursue "power for profit" and pursue "power." The capital of the victory is also", and pursues the principle of "treating each other with a calculated heart". Identifying aiding and abetting as the target of abuse. To achieve the purpose. Do not hesitate to resort to all immoral means. The most cruel and tyrannical policies were adopted towards the people. This brutality seriously maimed the people of the time, and also hurt their own psychology and the psychology of the monarch they served. Moreover, it has gradually led to the evil habit of mutilating and ignoring life in the entire national culture. This has created an atmosphere of lack of compassion for the tragic fate of the disadvantaged groups in the whole society.

The idea of bad pragmatism and bad utilitarianism of Legalist figures. It laid the foundation of the officialdom culture of China. laid the foundation of officialdom interpersonal relations. As a result, the interpersonal relations of the mainstream society in China are often in a bad state of deceit, deceit, and strife. This and the hypocritical empty talk of benevolence, righteousness, and love and benevolence of Confucian figures just form the positive and negative sides of the bad moral state of the dual personality of officialdom figures.

Shang Ying's open proclamation of the idea of "using power to seek profit" almost established the atmosphere of Chinese officialdom frantically using power for personal gain. "Seeking profit with power", a word "suo", contains obvious coercion and coercion. So in the future, there were behaviors such as "three days of big rope" after the battle. Hold power to make profits, why can't you ask for it? As a result, corruption perverted the law, sold official positions, and marketized public power became a historical stubborn disease open in China. In other nation-states, there will also be corruption. However, it is not the same as the deep-rooted cultural corruption of China and the Chinese nation. This kind of cultural corruption has penetrated so widely into the hearts of the people that it is terrifying. And in the concept of modern civilization, the use of public power to seek improper interests is precisely the most immoral behavior!

The three-character scripture of "law, art, and potential" of Legalist figures runs not only through their political philosophy, but also through their philosophy of life and being an official. Later officialdom, as long as they were intoxicated with power, all took these three-character scriptures as an important theoretical guide for them to conduct themselves in the world. Of course, the profound officialdom culture is far from being summed up in these three words, and future generations of officials are still enriching it.

Below, we will first discuss the personality types of officialdom figures. The uncle and grandson made a court ceremony, and asked his subordinates to kneel down to see the emperor. That is, the system compels those who are ministers to obtain power and other benefits of being officials at the cost of lowering their personality. Of course, the common people were also forced to kneel for the official (later meritorious people could not kneel when they saw the official, which was a special preferential treatment for alternate colleagues). So, if the common people don't see the officials for the rest of their lives, can they not kneel for the rest of their lives? No, there are still provisions in the patriarchal system. Worshipping the "Heaven and Earth Prince" must also kneel. In short, the mentality of kneeling for the eunuchs. and much more than the people. This kneeling mentality has entered the bones of the Chinese nation. As for "gold under the knees of men." "Push the gold mountain, pour the jade pillar" and the like. That is just an expression of the unwilling to give in mentality of the elites of marginal society.

The external image, together with the internal ideological and psychological structure, constitute a person's complete personality structure. If the inside and outside are not unified, it is a kind of alienated personality, or a split personality, a dual personality.

It is difficult for ordinary people in a simple living environment and a state of survival to form a dual personality. And if a person is in a state of officialdom that must degrade human dignity and is full of intrigue and intrigues, full of hypocrisy, strife and crisis; In such a complex psychological environment; It's so hard to stay out of it. Especially those who are lustful for power and materialism. It's so hard not to form a dual personality. No wonder Li Bai couldn't help but shout: "An Neng broke his eyebrows and bent his waist to deal with the powerful, making me unhappy"!

Some people say that the Dongying people are "ambiguous Dongying people". In fact, why are Chinese people not "ambiguous Chinese people"? In the mainstream society of China, I am afraid that it will be more ambiguous! Because the Chinese people are the birthplace and ancestor of this oriental culture! When encountering things, you can't express them directly, and the article can't be straight to the point and open and honest. The eyes are hesitant and evade fear. There is a big set of clichés, lies, big words, and empty words. Even the general impression of the mainstream media is that it is false, empty, and impetuous. Everything is artificially complicated. This is a kind of hypocritical complexity, a complexity of internal friction. It is the complexity of history, the complexity of culture, and the complexity of national personality! The Chinese are still struggling with this historical complexity!

The culture of officialdom is based on the traditional totalitarian system. It is the private teaching and receiving of a position of power, and it is an environmental atmosphere of a strong personal dependence relationship. The pathological personality of officialdom characters arises from this.

First of all, we want to study a very special group in Chinese officialdom. That is the eunuchs, that is, the group of eunuchs. In history, from the Qin to the Qing Dynasty, almost all dynasties have had eunuchs who leaned towards the government and the opposition and had great influence. For example, Chang and Zhao Gao of the Qin Dynasty. Ten permanent servants of the Han Dynasty. Gao Lishi, Li Fuguo, Qiu Shiliang, and Yu Chaoen in the Tang Dynasty. Wang Jien, Tong Guan, and Liang Shicheng of the Song Dynasty. Wang Zhen, Liu Jin, and Wei Zhongxian of the Ming Dynasty. An Dehai, Li Lianying, Zhang Lande and so on in the Qing Dynasty. The list goes on.

Because eunuchs were castrated, they lost the ability to reproduce and lead normal sexual life. This special state of the body. Coupled with the living environment in the palace, most of them produce a distorted psychological state. Of course, there are also eunuchs who have had a good impact on the history of China. For example, Sima Qian, Cai Lun, Zheng He, etc. But as a group, that's a rare exception.

The vast majority of eunuchs. After gaining power, they all became accomplices or main culprits in bringing disaster to the country and the people. Their kind of proximity to the supreme power, at the center of the struggle for power. The kind of environment full of tumbling, calculation, strife, and treachery. They have developed a perverted personality of meanness, servility, subordination, loneliness, superstition, taboo, greed, and cruelty. The perverted personality of the eunuch. As a kind of eunuch personality, it has been stereotyped and has become an important type of personality in the officialdom of Huaguo. Moreover, it has had a great and indelible impact on the formation of the entire officialdom culture. Zhao Gao's drill of pointing a deer as a horse has become a classic model of officialdom and authority in the past dynasties, which is an example. And Wei Zhongxian openly claimed to be 9,000 years old, set up ancestral halls everywhere, and unscrupulously seized power. A large number of court ministers were recruited as godsons, and they did not take the Manchu Dynasty civil and military affairs in their eyes at all. are all typical examples.

The group of eunuchs, as a historical phenomenon, has come to an end. But it as a group. It is also a group that has had a huge impact on the history of China. A group that has had an important impact on the cultural accumulation of officialdom. The residual effects are long-term and difficult to end. If you don't believe it, just look at the officialdom who has a strong vassal color of power in the past dynasties since Xinhai. The actions of those officialdom figures who are close to absolute power and who pursue the eunuch personality can be understood.

In short, the eunuch personality is a phenomenon that has existed in the history of China for a long time. Like historical phenomena such as torture and foot binding, the impact on the psychology of the entire nation cannot be ignored.

Another group type of pathological personality in the officialdom crowd is the concubine personality. This group included imperial officials and harem concubines. The reason why the emperor is also included is because the roles of concubines and emperors can often be switched. For example, Empress Lu, Wang Mang, Dong Zhuo, and Cao Cao in the Han Dynasty, Wu Zetian and Empress Wei in the Tang Dynasty, and later Zhao Kuangyin, Cixi, and so on. Some coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and actually achieved the status of emperor. Some simply took their place and became emperors. There are too many examples in history to mention. The second is that "minister" is used as a verb, which means "servant and commander". That is, the superior leader leads the subordinate in modern Chinese. And this kind of relationship between servants, commanders, and leaders, in the ladder of ranks, is at the top of the emperor. Concubinage existed relative to the emperor, and the emperor depended on his concubines for survival. This kind of ecology is indivisible, so its role positioning should not be absolutely divided.

Moreover, the emperor can only have one person in an independent time period and space. The so-called "one mountain cannot have two tigers, and a country cannot have two kings". The group effect of emperors can only be reflected in the long river of history. However, the group effect in the long history is also how you look at it: "Since the Qin Dynasty, all emperors are thieves." "For the great harm of the world, you are just the king."

If you want to analyze it carefully, in history, the performance of the founding emperors may have their own merits. And those who inherit the unification, if they meet a "good son". His own quality is good, and he is willing to accept advice with an open mind. The country may be able to live a good life for a few days. If you meet a "scoundrel". He is ignorant and narrow-minded. If the power falls to the eunuchs, or to the relatives and ministers, the country will soon be in shambles. For example, the Ming Dynasty was almost all such "scoundrels". Therefore, the personality of the emperor is included in the category of concubine personality, and it is not wronged. The following discussion will further prove this point.

The word "minister" is said to be "like the shape of submission" in "Shuowen Jiezi". There are also ancients: "The servants are cheap, the men are called ministers, and the women are concubines." The earliest occurrence of the phrase "concubine" in the history books of China was in Sima Qian's "Historical Records. The Yue King Goujian Family". Yue Guo was defeated for Wu Wangfucha, "Gou Jian invited him to be a minister, and his wife was a concubine". As a result, a monarch and his wife, as the first pair of famous and surnamed "concubines", entered the history of China in a grand manner! This is quite symbolic. From this, it can be inferred how unpredictable the status of the imperial concubine is. "The court is Tian Shelang, and the twilight is the Tianzi Hall" is of course the supreme glory. It is also common for you to be a king in the morning and a prisoner at night. Prosperity and withering are close at hand, and they can come in an instant. This is the state of existence of the concubines of the emperor. (To be continued......)
