Chapter 690: Eliminate the Great Evil of the World
The pickaxe pond is located near the site of the old capital of the Zhou Dynasty, and now there is no longer a city-state of Hehezong Zhou, only the elk wandering in the ruins, and a piece of golden millet, standing on the roof of an abandoned water mill by the pool, you can also catch a glimpse of the Afang Palace under construction in the distance, where 100,000 people are toiling.
At the end of the night, four black shadows approached the abandoned mill one after another, they met by the pool, and then touched into the mill, but saw that there was already a person waiting inside, through the last bit of light before nightfall, they could see clearly, this is the eldest disciple of Qin Mo's giant Cheng Shang: Shi Lin.
"Shilin, you sent the black paper kite?"
The leader of the four was a little lame, named Yang Yi, and he took out the black paper kite in his arms and sandwiched it between his fingers.
The color of the paper is black and brown, it is made by a special method, and its folding method is very special, only those who know can fold it in one step, which is the code of the Mo family, the young Zhuang faction to contact each other.
It is not surprising that the Mo Scholar is a well-structured organization, and once had a powerful armed force that made the princes look sideways, although the number was small, only one hundred and eighty people, but it could not withstand the advanced technology, and they could all fight for the ideals of the Mo family.
Later, although the Mo family was divided and decayed, and was no longer a prominent scholar, Qin Mo, who took root in the land of Yongzhou, still retained strict discipline.
"Yes, I did it."
Shi Lin's expression was a little sad: "The day before yesterday, I sent three senior brothers who were sent to Lingnan to serve hard labor to Baqiao, and today I returned them, and I have handed over the clothes that the second and third sons asked me to give." ”
It turned out that in mid-March, the Mo family was asked by the Shaofu to send people to the Lishan Mausoleum to provide advanced technology to help the craftsmen solve the problems of the project: it is said that the Lishan Mausoleum has been built to the key underground palace, and the depth has been sent to the three springs......
These incredible ideas require Mohist technology to make them come true.
But helping the monarch build a mausoleum is contrary to the concept of Mozi, and among the ten morals of Zimozi, it is extremely important to save the funeral and use it.
Although the giant Cheng Shang decided to follow the order of the Shaofu and send his disciples to assist, after the three disciples arrived at the place, they were surprised by the scale of Lishan and the amount of financial and labor consumed, which was far beyond the bottom line that Mozi could tolerate......
This time he stabbed a big basket, and Zhao Gao, the deputy supervisor of Lishan Mausoleum, deliberately complicated things and asked the ink masters: "Is it the great decree of Your Majesty, or the righteousness of the Ink Scripture?" ”
Although the three ink masters were stubborn, they were not stupid and kept silent, but they were still arrested by Zhao Gao and reported to Qin Shi Huang, saying that the ink scholars thought that the imperial court had no way and did not provide technology, how could Qin Shi Huang care about such a trivial matter, and waved his hand again, and ordered the court lieutenant to deal with it.
In the end, the three were sentenced to the same sentence as Xi, and were sent to Lingnan to serve as Sikou, because the Marquis of Changnan had just requested Qin Shi Huang that Panyu would build a shipbuilding workshop and needed the assistance of ink and craftsmen......
In the eyes of the giant Cheng Shang, this is already a commutation he has won after seeking the theory of Tingwei and Shaofu several times, but the young Zhuang faction in Qin Mo does not think so.
"That's a good job!"
Yang Yi limped to the edge of the stone mill, smashed his fist on it, gritted his teeth and said: "Zi Mozi said, everything is more precious than righteousness!" There are many people who betray righteousness and yearn for righteousness, and there are very few people who reject Fenglu and yearn for righteousness. ”
Yan Yan raised his head: "Shilin, Cheng Juzi is your master, what do you think?" ”
"We are all dissatisfied with the giants, otherwise we would not be connected with each other and want to make a difference."
After experiencing the innocent exile of his senior brother, Shilin was enlightened, and there was no longer confusion in his eyes, and he said to the four humane:
"I asked you to come here today, because I have something to discuss with the second and third sons!"
At this time, it was already completely dark, and the five of them could only huddle together and whisper.
Shilin said: "Zi Mozi said in "Love" that those who are benevolent must seek the benefits of the world and eliminate the harm of the world. Dare to ask the second and third sons, before unification, which is the greatest harm in the world? ”
Yang Yi said: "At that time, the harm of the world was naturally that the big country attacked the small country, everyone messed with the small family, the strong robbed the weak, the tyrannical widows of the people, the deceitful and foolish, and the expensive and cheap. ”
Shilin said: "However, what caused this kind of species is that the world is divided into seven points, and the princes compete for strength, holding their blades, poisons, water and fire, and killing each other." The world is set to be one, if the annexation can be completed, and the seven countries can be changed into one country, then the dispute will be eliminated, in order to achieve 'Shang Tong', we Qin Mo do not hesitate to violate the meaning of 'non-attack', and help Qin to ...... one day."
This process was bloody, Shi Lin and the four people present, except for Yang Yi, who was born and raised in Guanzhong, the rest were orphans left over from the war, and they knew how much reunification had costed.
And out of guilt for his violation of the "non-attack", Qin Mo adopted the homeless them, raised them, and taught them the Mojing. The sense of identity of the Mo family is far greater than that of the Qin family.
"But now? The princes have been extinguished, the counties and counties have abolished the feudal, but the conquest has not been eliminated, the people of the seven countries resented each other in the past, the people are still poor, and the day is precarious, but the court is more and more extravagant, and the miscellaneous labor is exceeded, making the world boil. ”
Shi Lin glanced at everyone and asked vigorously: "Dare to ask the second and third sons, at this time, which is the greatest harm in the world?" ”
The four opened their mouths, but none of them spoke.
"Don't dare to say it?"
Shi Lin smiled: "Then I'll say it for you!" ”
He stood up and jumped onto the millstone, his face distorted with anger, and said in a voice that he tried his best to suppress: "The harm of today is greater than the disadvantage of the human monarch!" The harm of today is greater than the arrogance and tyranny of His Majesty! ”
"Qin Shi Huangdi, he is the great harm of today!"
……
This is like a stormy wave! swept the hearts of everyone, even if there were complaints against the imperial court, but because of the authority erected by the emperor for many years, no one dared to say it.
But they are, after all, the ink scholars who were scolded by Mencius as "fatherless and kingless"! Within the Qin Dynasty system, who else should understand this matter the most, besides the Mo family?
After a short period of silence, Zhao Yin, an orphan who was rescued from the ruins of Handan by the former giant "Tang Fuzi" many years ago, boldly asked: "Dare to ask Shilin, how to get rid of this great harm today?" ”
Shi Lin's answer caused a wave again.
"Be punished!"
"Ahh
Even if they were prepared, the four of them couldn't help but take a few steps back, and some of them immediately lay down by the window, looking outside weakly, for fear of being overheard, then they would die. There are also people who stick to the wall, not knowing whether they should slip away at this time......
Qin Lu, if you don't report to the official when you hear the words of rebellion, you have to be connected!
But Shi Lin was aggressive, and continued to say every word, which was enough for him to divide the corpse of five horses and wipe out the three clans!
"There was once a Confucian student who questioned Zi Mozi, the former Yu Zheng had Miao, Tang Fa Ji, and Wu Wang Va, all of them were established as holy kings, why did they also?"
"Zi Mozi said, this is not called 'attack', but 'punishment'!"
"Confucian scholars believe that punishment is punishment from above, and punishment from below is called murder. But we ink people are not, as long as we punish violence and punish injustice, it will be punished! ”
The punishment of the Mo family has nothing to do with rank, but the punishment of justice for injustice.
The lowly Qianshou prisoner, in the face of the harshness of the princes and generals, fought hard to punish him, which is also justice!
It is no wonder that Mencius, who also agrees with "punishing a husband", must put aside his relationship with the Mo family's punishment and scold them: "Fatherless and kingless, they are beasts." ”
After the death of Mozi, the Mo family was divided, and the teachings of various factions were deviated, among which there was a faction of "Xia Mo", who clothed and coarse clothes, helped the needy, killed cool officials, eliminated tyranny, and hoped that the light of love could shine on the suffering masses.
But of course, this faction was suppressed by the princes, and was also attacked by the rest of the Mo faction, and soon died out.
However, today, the banner of violence was once again carried by a young disciple of Qin Mo:
Shilin's eyes were fearless, and he walked towards the four of them, and he had a heartfelt word:
"As a monarch, even if he is the emperor, if he is tyrannical, and does not repent, and repeatedly refuses to listen to advice, it is natural that everyone will be punished! This is a matter for the world to eliminate harm! ”
"No!"
The first to refuse was the lame Yang Yi.
He kept his hands on his ears and shook his head.
"Although I am a Mo scholar, I am also a Qin person in Guanzhong, not those assassins who think about the Six Kingdoms all day long, I will not oppose Qin, and I will not overthrow my parents' state!"
"I will puncture my eardrum and bite off my tongue, and I will not tell you if I heard anything!"
As he spoke, he was about to leave the mill, but as soon as he opened the door, he bumped into a man!
……
A figure suddenly appeared outside the door, and everyone in the mill was startled, thinking that their words had been overheard.
But the man at the door raised the flame in his hand, shook it in front of his face, and then threw it to the ground and trampled it out.
Everyone had seen his face clearly, and Yang Yi was the most surprised.
"Don ...... Mr. Tang. ”
The person who came was Tang Duo, who had a conversation with Heifu many years ago with Cheng Shang at the head of the Yangcheng Wall, but unlike Cheng Shang who became Heifu's friend, Tang Duo became a son of Fusu Menke, and now he is working in Shaofu, he is Qin Mo's second-in-command, and he is also the soul of the Shaozhuang faction.
"Yi, you're wrong, very wrong!"
Tang Duo walked into the mill and forced Yang Yi back.
"Zi Mozi said, regard the country of men as if it were your own country; Regard the home of others as if they were your own home; Regard the body of a man as if he were his own body. This is the Mohist family's mutual love and mutual benefit. ”
"Don't say that now the world is unified, and the princes are one family, even if it was still divided in the past, as long as you enter the ink gate, you will not be divided from country to country, and we only have one identity left: the ink one!"
Yang Yi retreated step by step, but he still argued: "Ink is also Qin ink, the ink of the West!" ”
Tang Duo shook his head: "It's true that your hometown is Guanzhong, but what about other people?" ”
He pointed to Shilin and the others: "Shilin's hometown is Songdi, Zhao Yin's hometown is Handan, and there are also people who live in Huaiyang and Taoqiu, and Qin Mo's young and strong generation are mostly orphans and come from all over the world......"
"Qin Mo, the ink of the West...... That was the old name a hundred years ago, and now, how can there be any Qi Mo Chu Mo, the Southern Ink and the Eastern Ink Maker? In this world, there is only one kind of ink artist left......"
He shouted: "The ink of the people of the world!" ”
"Therefore, the ink of the people of the world, the great benefit of the world, in addition to the great harm of the world, should not be confined to the selfishness of the regional gateway!"
Yang Yi had nothing to say, but he was still skeptical.
As the true planner of this gathering, Tang Duo sighed and began to make a final persuasion to Yang Yi, his attitude determined whether those Qin people from Guanzhong in the Mo family were willing to participate in this plan.
Tang Duo slowed down his tone: "Therefore, we are by no means anti-Qin, not to overthrow the imperial court, and not to divide the world." We are different from those nobles of the Six Kingdoms, they each have their own home, but the ink is for the people of the world. The purpose of the punishment is to make the old and deaf Qin Shi Huang no longer able to harm the world! ”
Yang Yi suddenly asked: "Dare to ask Mr. Tang, what should you do after the violence?" ”
Tang Duo said as a matter of course: "As long as the first emperor dies and the heir succeeds to the throne, it will be easier for the government to govern, those useless expeditions can all be recalled, those extravagant palaces can be stopped immediately, the court will be sparing, the rent will be reduced, Li Shu will have no debts, men will enjoy their domains, women will cultivate their careers, and the hatred between people in the world can also be alleviated......"
Everyone yearns for it, that is the ideal world in the minds of the ink masters!
Yang Yi was even more shocked, thinking of a possibility: "Heir? Da Qin has not yet established a prince, Mr. Tang, are you talking about the eldest son? ”
He looked back at Shi Lin in shock: "Today's gathering, the words of rebellion to assassinate His Majesty, are they all instigated by the eldest son?" Childe he ...... Do you want to kill your father!? ”
……
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other, if this was the case, the image of the eldest son in their hearts would completely collapse......
Tang Duo immediately denied it: "The eldest son has a benevolent and pure filial temperament, Hugh said that the king killed his father, even if His Majesty ordered him to commit suicide, he would not hesitate to raise his sword and kill himself." ”
He took out the "Ink Sutra" he carried in his arms, knelt down on one knee, and swore to the sky: "I, Tang Duo, dare to swear in front of ghosts and gods, eldest son, have nothing to do with this matter!" ”
Mo Jiaming ghosts, believing in the punishment of ghosts and gods, this is the most solemn gambling curse, for a while, Yang Yi and everyone believed Tang Duo's words.
Tang Duo told the truth: "Even if the prince can endure until the day the emperor dies. But the people who are suffering can't bear it, and there are some things that can't be hesitated anymore! ”
"As a Mo scholar, I see that the emperor is trying to satisfy the desires of one person, seize the use of the people, and abolish the benefits of the people, and 30 million people are running around and toiling, and the world is about to fall and sink, so I can't sit idly by. Therefore, he concealed from the eldest son, convened a meeting of you and others, and wanted to use the power of the ink to get rid of the great harm in the world! ”
At this time, Shilin raised a difficult question: "Mr. Tang, the first emperor has tens of thousands of guards and thousands of Lang Wei to protect him, and his whereabouts are secret. ”
Tang Duo smiled mysteriously: "We are in Xianyang, and we also have official positions and are well-informed. The odds of success are better than those Fuguo Assassins lying on the mountain road, waiting for the royal car to pass, right? Trust me, soon there will be a chance. ”
He immediately solemnized and glanced at everyone in the room: "But first, we have to press the ink scripture with our hands, and in front of the punishment of the ghosts and gods, we make an oath to eliminate the great harm of the world together, and never betray!" ”
With the moonlight outside the window, Shi Lin immediately stepped forward, Zhao Yin followed, and the other two ink artists followed with a little hesitation.
Only Yang Yi remained, this lame ink man who was born in Guanzhong and grew up drinking the water of the Wei River, was in a dilemma, he would clench his fists for a while, and look at the door of the mill for a while, but after several hesitations, he still limped to the side of the division commander brothers.
A total of six people formed a circle around the stone grinding edge, Tang Duo put the ink scripture he carried with him on the grinding plate, and then pressed it with one hand.
"Ghosts and gods are above, Zi Mozi is proof."
Tang Duo took the lead in taking the oath, and his voice was full of faith in the just cause: "For the righteousness of the ink people, for the common people in the world." ”
"In order to eliminate the war in the world, there will be no more attacks."
Shilin seems to see his parents who died in the unification war, their deaths, the sacrifices of countless people, in exchange, should not be this bad Ji Shi, it should be a better world.
Everyone finished speaking, and only Yang Yi remained.
He closed his eyes: "For the people of the Seven Kingdoms, regardless of you and me, the day of love and Datong!" ”
"For the sake of Great Qin, it can truly become a country shared by all people in the world!"
The six of them spoke in unison, and in this dim mill, they made a shocking statement:
"When you are like the ink of the ancients, you will be violent and evil, go to the fire, and you will not return the heel!"
