Chapter 610: That Era~!

"Xiao Xuan, although the Mo family giant promised to lead the rest of the Mo family to join the Yanhuang Academy, you must not spread their identities, and many of these ink masters have martial arts, you must pay attention to management, don't let these people go out and make trouble~! You know, there are a lot of people staring at you now~! ”

After Mo Huai, Mo Zhong, and Mo Yun left with their mission, Li Gang looked at Li Zexuan and said earnestly.

Li Zexuan was stunned, a little confused, so he asked, "Sir, why is this~?" ”

"Do you know why since the Qin State dominated the world, the emperors of all dynasties have suppressed the Mo family~?"

Li Gang put his hands on his shoulders, sighed heavily, and then turned around, stared at Li Zexuan's eyes with burning eyes, and said.

Li Zexuan replied as a matter of course: "Isn't it because Confucianism can better rule the people~?" Therefore, the other sons and hundreds of schools can only slowly die out~! ”

This question must be answered by a modern person, because countless historians have analyzed this question: for feudal rulers, Confucianism, which is based on the ideological system of respect and inferiority, is more able to meet the needs of ancient emperors to implement feudal monarchy, so Confucianism is on fire, and other doctrines should naturally be cold.

"You kid~!"

Li Gang glared, and pointed at Li Zexuan angrily, he is an old man, of course he knows that what Li Zexuan said is the truth, but can he just say the truth~? He scolded with a smile, and then said: "It's okay for you to play tricks with the old man, but don't take these words outside to say it~!" ”

Li Zexuan knew that he was speechless, and hurriedly said yes.

Li Gang continued:

In fact, in addition to the reason of Confucianism, there is another important reason why the emperors of the past dynasties suppressed the Mohists - in the context of great unification, a strong organization with strict internal discipline will inevitably make the imperial court extremely wary. Although the Mo family may only have a heart of blood and no political ambitions, the monarchs of the past dynasties are not afraid of greedy villains, but sages and gentlemen with mobilization ability~!

For example, Xiao He, after Han Gaozu sat down in the country, Xiao He's disciples persuaded him to "buy more land and defile himself", so that Liu Bang would feel at ease. Xiao He listened to the advice, so he forcibly bought the houses and fields of the common people at a low price, and as a result, Gao Zu was really happy. If Xiao Chengxiang thinks like Mozi about "making a difference in the world", maybe there will be another headless ghost in Weiyang Palace.

Therefore, after the First Emperor unified the Six Kingdoms, he immediately sent the Shadow Secret Guard to hunt down and kill the children of the Mo family. In the Han Dynasty, the imperial court suppressed the Mo family several times, which directly wiped out almost all the Mo family~! The Mo family has survived until now, and there are less than 100 people left, although these people are far from threatening the imperial court, but Xiao Xuan, you still have to avoid it, don't fall into the truth of others~! ”

Li Gang is not bad at what he said, because for the monarch, what is terrible is not the ambition to rebel, but the ability to rebel.

Therefore, as an organization, the Mohist family must only exist in the era of the nations, when the great unity of the four seas had not yet been formed, and the greatest danger faced by the monarchs of the vassal states was the enemy countries around them, and they should be much more relaxed about the people under their rule.

Not only is it impossible for organizations like the Mohists to continue to exist, but even the rangers who uphold some Mohist ideas and take the elimination of violence and peace as their own responsibility are also tolerated by the imperial court because of the "prohibition by force".

Li Zexuan was on the side, listening and listening, he couldn't help but think of that stormy and bloody era in his mind, and couldn't help but feel sad for such a great school as the Mo family, born in this bad era, and after being silent for a long time, he said solemnly to Li Gang:

"Thank you Mr. for reminding me, the kid will pay attention~!"

He knew in his heart that if Li Ganggang didn't really regard him as his junior, he would definitely not say this.

Li Gang shook his head, he could see that he was also pitiful for the ending of the Mo family, at this time he looked at the green bamboo in the corner of the wall outside the door, and said with emotion: "The purpose of the Mo family is: "If you say it, you will do it". This kind of dedication, while valuable, can easily manifest itself as a collective act that is not conducive to the long-term development of the school.

At that time, Meng Sheng, the giant of the Mo family, guarded the seal for the king of Yangcheng in Chu State, and none of the 183 people he and his disciples retreated, and all of them died in battle! In the chaotic world at that time, such an event, for the Mo family, there is definitely more than one case, although the Mo family in its heyday had hundreds of thousands of children, but no matter how many people, how many such wars can they withstand~?

Therefore, the old man thinks that the Mo family's good courage is not advisable, and to this day, Yanhuang Academy is a good place for them to go to the ink people~! The old man hopes that they can teach and educate people in the academy comfortably, and don't make any more trouble~! ”

Taking lofty ideals as the goal, strict organization as the norm, and being willing to dedicate oneself to the ideal are the general characteristics of Mohism. When they participate in social change and practice in a collective and collective way, they can show an extremely powerful force.

However, the tragic outcome may be precisely among them: when this group suffers a powerful blow, with their dedication to justice and ideals, with their spirit of preferring to die rather than retreat, the result is not to fall apart but to be left without a single crop. The collapse can still be cleaned up, and there is no way to sustain without a single crop!

"That's it~! That's it~! Don't talk about these old things, it's not too early, I know that your kid is very particular about eating, and the old man only has coarse bran pickles at home, so he won't leave you to eat here, so as not to dislike you~! ”

After a long time, Li Gang may have realized that these topics were too heavy, he got up and looked at the hour, half-jokingly.

Li Zexuan said embarrassedly: "What did Mr. say at this time~!" The kid is not the kind of pampered rich boy who can't endure hardship, I ate wild vegetables in the mountains with my master back then~! If you can eat at the same table with Mr., even the coarse bran pickled vegetable boy can eat it~! ”

Li Gang waved his hand angrily and said, "Go, go~!" The old man didn't cook your food here, so go home and eat by yourself~! Oh, by the way, I have two friends who will come to Chang'an in two days, and you can also come to meet you then~! ”

Li Zexuan was still depressed, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Sir, who are your two friends~?" ”

"You'll know in two days, but you don't have to worry, they are all easy-going like old men, and they will definitely be willing to stay in your academy~!"
