Chapter 1369: New Dao
Fei Qian's words made Sima Hui silent for a while.
In fact, the decline of the Han Dynasty was actually completely damaged by the combined action of the emperor and Confucianism.
At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the social order of the entire court was not as chaotic and bad as it is now. When Liu Bang led the army to invade the Qin State, all the generals went to rob the gold and silver treasures, and Xiao He took people to rob the archives of the Qin Dynasty. Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty were generally examples of governing the country according to law, and did not impose the personal will of the monarch on the law.
The incident of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty attacking the horse at the Baqiao Bridge is a typical case of the imperial power being unable to override the law. Emperor Wen of Han wanted to increase the punishment, but in the end he still had to act in accordance with the law. This is the performance of Wenjing Huang Laozhizhi. The law is obeyed by the Son of Heaven and the people of the world, as an emperor, he cannot put his personal emotions and will on the law, but unfortunately, by Liu Bang, Emperor Wen, Emperor Jing, Xiao He, Cao Shen and other people to create a quiet and inaction, the tradition of governing the country according to law was jointly lifted by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Dong Zhongshu.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty supported Dong Zhongshu because Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wanted to use Dong Zhongshu to impact Huang Lao's learning, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty may have thought that later emperors would know how to support other sects again to suppress Confucianism, but he did not expect that a large number of newly promoted Confucian students, among the officials who originally learned from Huang Lao, naturally formed a friend, and party struggle became a fine traditional tradition of Confucianism, and continued to carry forward, until it became a true "exclusive respect for Confucianism".
The policy of exclusive respect for Confucianism was forcibly implemented after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty took power, and a large number of Confucian scholars were promoted, which ended the era of "rule of law" and "rule by virtue" replaced "rule by law".
"Governing the country by virtue" was expressed by the imperial court as "virtue is the main punishment and auxiliary".
The original "punishment" has clear provisions and norms, but what about "morality"? Dong Zhongshu proposed that "Spring and Autumn" could be used to break the prison. The so-called "Spring and Autumn Prison Break" is based on the historical work "Spring and Autumn" written by Confucius as the basis for adjudicating cases. This is a work of history, how can a history book be the basis for adjudicating a case? According to Dong Zhongshu, because this history book is based on "morality" as the basic principle.
The official interpretation is in hand, so many laws are naturally like people who only wear socks all over their bodies, regardless of whether they are big or small, ugly or not, all of them are exposed......
Therefore, with a group of Confucian children who are familiar with ancient books to help, it is not too easy for the emperor or a senior official to find any allusion from the history books that suits his heart!
Therefore, the direct result of "deposing the hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone" is that the emperor is no longer constrained by any law through Dong Zhongshu's Confucianism, and the emperor's will becomes a law, called "governing the country by virtue", which is actually the emperor's centralized power and arbitrariness, which is the extreme rule of man.
Since then, the emperors after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and local officials at all levels served by Confucianism have begun to rule the people for thousands of years. These vested interests have continuously inherited and carried forward the tradition of rule by man, and pushed it to the extreme.
And if Fei Qian wants to change the rule of man that has been formed for hundreds of years at this time, it is equivalent to moving the cheese of all the vested interests of the whole Han Dynasty, and these people will easily give up the relevant interests?
Therefore, when it is not possible to make a big change, the improvement of small actions becomes a very wise choice.
Can you lift the stove just because of a few mouse droppings?
Or can only scoop it out.
And then to whom to drink or to whom, at least in the bowl where the rat poop is not visible......
"The general's meaning is ......" Sima Hui's eyes wandered, like a scout before the battle between the two armies, spying on Fei Qian's true thoughts.
"When His Majesty went to Pingyang to hunt in the north, he went to the cottage, inspected the nongsang, and sympathized with the people...... "The ready-made banner Fei Qian naturally could not be missed, pulled over and shook vigorously, arched his hand towards the east with a pious face, and said, "Your Majesty is benevolent, regardless of the body of the heavens, and has personally experienced it, but also eats with the people, tastes the stick paste, and everyone present is all ...... tears."
"Your Majesty Shengming!" Fei Qian's dignified army drove out, and Sima Hui naturally raised his hand to surrender and shouted long live, expressing his respect to the east together.
“…… However, in a certain view, many Confucian children at present, who do not know the hardships of the people and do not taste the hardships of the people, how can they talk about agricultural affairs? If you don't practice martial arts and don't go through battle formations, how can you talk about the art of war? If we don't teach and don't expand the wisdom of the people, how can we talk about education? Fei Qian knocked on the table and said, "Zhong Ni traveled around the six countries, taught according to his aptitude, enlightened all the people, and obtained the wonder of Confucianism and Taoism. ”
"What the general said is very true!" Regarding this argument, Sima Hui naturally raised his hands in agreement, with a look of concern, and then quickly began to calculate, Fei Qian's statement is indeed unstoppable, and from some angles, Sima Hui is also unwilling to see the current situation.
At present, the filial piety and honesty system is raised, and the relationship households are all governed by people, as for whether they have the ability, it is basically the same as the lottery lottery, and the grand prize of 5 million is there, but the vast majority of it is still a small prize of five yuan and ten yuan, of course, there is a large piece of five yuan and ten yuan can not be won......
And the Sima family, because Sima Fang and Sima Lang resigned successively, it can be said that they are out of the scope of related households, otherwise Sima Yi would not have been able to be promoted to filial piety, so when Fei Qian said that Liu Xie had set an example and done benevolent things, Sima Hui vaguely guessed something......
"Heavy talk, light experience, is rotten Confucian! If a corrupt Confucian enters the court as an official, it will harm the country, and if he is an official, he will kill the people! Fei Qian continued, "This spring, Kong Cai planned to select materials, whipped into it, and when it was extended, don't be corrupt and upright!" Confucianism and Taoism are pure and true, how can they be defiled? When cleaning up and introspecting, clean and clear also! ”
Sima Hui's eyes shimmered, and his beard trembled slightly with excitement, and he said loudly: "Okay!" The general's words are very good! Confucianism has been saying for hundreds of years, and there must be silverfish in it, and they will not only harm the country and the people, but also damage the reputation of Confucianism! Confucian nature, pure and true! How can you tolerate such pickles! Although the old man is not talented, he is willing to defend the innocence of Confucianism and Taoism, and he will not give up! ”
Although Sima Hui didn't know what the Commission for Discipline Inspection was or what the Independent Commission Against Corruption was, he was keenly aware of the mystery and immediately became impassioned, expressing his willingness to contribute to the great cause of Confucian innocence!
Of course, if General Zhengxi is just an ordinary person, Sima Hui hears the same words, even if he thinks it makes sense, he will scoff at it, just like talking about anti-**, talking about it as a common person, and talking about it as a national leader, will it have the same effect?
Now that the general of Zhengxi is inclined to merge the state, Si Li, Hanzhong, it can be said that in this piece of land, he follows his words, since General Zhengxi intends to take the lead in doing this thing, Sima Hui is naturally willing to replace the Sima family to hold this incomparably high authority!
Sima Hui even felt that Fei Qian's suggestion was to crack down on some disobedient scholars from the highest level, but it didn't matter, isn't everything in the world like this? If there is no value to be used, who will pay the price?
"Okay, this spring exam will be titled 'Confucian'!" Sima Hui stroked his beard and said, "General, this question is wonderful!" It's wonderful! ”
Fei Qian smiled slightly and nodded. Sima Hui is willing to take the bait, and after the topic of "Confucianism" makes waves, he will slowly proceed to the next Qingniuguan meeting......
In fact, if you pay attention to it, the Han Dynasty was actually a country established with Huang Lao and scholars as the cornerstone. Although Confucianism was adopted during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it was only a change in the doctrine that the scholars believed, and the scholars still ruled the world.
Feiqian's original concept of the Han Dynasty mostly came from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is actually the Three Kingdoms in the eyes of the Ming Dynasty......
The three hundred years of Confucianism in power left behind countless successors, which is the foundation of the party.
Yuan Kui, Wang Yun, Yang Biao, Yuan Shao and the like are actually party members and scholars, and their most essential thing is to pursue the interests of their own families. For the sake of the family, these people can dance with the so-called traitorous eunuchs with their eyes closed, or they can open their eyes and shout justice to kill......
Why did Liu Xiu get the world so easily, because he had the most extensive support from the scholars at that time. The scholars are the most powerful class of the Han Dynasty, and to put it mildly, in this era, the supporters of the scholars won the world. Scholars are intellectuals, that is, the propertied class, they want money and money, knowledge and knowledge, and talents......
The Shi clan is the real vested interest of the Han Dynasty, but they are also the terminators of the Han Dynasty, because they are greedy, endless greed, so the Han Dynasty finally perished.
If we want to avoid future tragedies, we have to make some changes.
Cao Cao, who tried to reform, raised the knife of slaughtering the scholars, killed Bian Rang, killed Cui Yan, killed Kong Rong, killed Yang Xiu, and even killed Xun, but in the end Cao Wei still died at the hands of another scholar clan......
Slaughtering with a knife without any sense of beauty will only follow in Cao Cao's footsteps, and Fei Qian doesn't want to do this.
The essence of the scholars is that they are keen on power, they regard the emperor as their own prison, the Han as their own back garden, and the warriors as their watchdogs......
Of course, this is the so-called backbone of the loyal and righteous people, just like Sima Yi did later.
There are also many children of the scholar clan who are afraid of death, in order to live and for the interests of their own family, they can seduce this today and seduce this tomorrow, just like a joker who wants to make money, as long as she is rich, she is an uncle.
And no matter which one it is, Fei Qian can afford it now.
If it weren't for his own experience, Fei Qian wouldn't have understood why the Shi clan had such a strong position in the Great Han. In this era, the personnel gap in the middle and low levels is too large, and only the scholars can make up for this gap. Just like scalpers, with strong demand, there is naturally room for price gouging.
Therefore, if Fei Qian wants to do it, he must boil frogs in warm water, and while cultivating a large number of middle and low-level officials, he lures the scholars themselves to stab each other.
Just like in the future, if there is no large-scale expansion of college students, where will there be a large-scale expansion of civil servants, and where will there be space to kill the corrupt?
The national policy has always been one link after another, with dignified and upright soldiers boiling frogs in warm water, and using yang to make conspiracy moves.
When the relationship between supply and demand reverses, the scalpers who profit from it will naturally be unlucky.
Fei Qian is not like Yuan Shao, nor like Cao Cao, although he now has an heir, but the people are still thin, which determines that Fei Qian must divide the power in his hands, although the fattest is still taken away by Jing Xiang's Fei Qian's faction, but there are still many vacancies left, so a horizontal comparison, than Yuan Shao and Cao Cao all eat and wipe clean I don't know how many times, so the attraction of the Shi clan is naturally greatly enhanced.
This is the beginning of the transformation of supply and demand here in Fiqian.
sent away Sima Hui, who was going to wave the flag in the next stage, so naturally he still had to look for someone to shout.
Fei Qian asked people to call Yang Xiu.
Yang Xiu is also pitiful, Baba ran from Hongnong to Pingyang, and later from Pingyang to Guanzhong, and now he followed Fei Qian back to Pingyang, just for Fei Qian's words.
Yang Xiu was still personable, as if he had not been able to reduce his appearance by half a point after such a long time of waiting and the fatigue of the journey.
Fei Qian knocked lightly on the table and said straightforwardly: "Dezu, there is a certain matter, if it is done, so-and-so will help each other with the Yang family and work together......"
"General, but please command." Yang Xiu said quietly.
"At the beginning of spring next year, the spring of the school palace will be a big competition, and a certain person wants to enter the temple to compete with the same hall...... Fei Qian looked at Yang Xiu and said, "I don't know if Dezu has any difficulties?" ”
Yang Xiu raised his slender and beautiful eyebrows slightly, looked at Fei Qian, seemed to read Fei Qian's inner thoughts, and said, "What is the question of comparison?" ”
"On Confucianism." Fei Qian's justice Ling Ran said, "The way of Confucianism is pure and true, upright, for the country and the people." ”
Yang Xiu frowned slightly, unaffected by Fei Qian's big words, and pointed to the essence of the problem: "The general wants to divide Shandong and Shanxi? ”
Fei Qian laughed and said, "Shandong, Shanxi, is it originally a family?" ”
Yang Xiu also smiled, as if relieved, bowed to the ground and said, "Xiu is driven by the general......"
