Chapter 591: Confucianism and Law are used to rule the world together
Zhuge Liang, Jiang Wan, Zhang Ji, Pang Shanmin, Zhuge Jun and other ministers, heard that their lord was going to restart the hundred schools of thought and reproduce the grand occasion of the hundred schools of thought, and they disagreed with it in their hearts.
After all, according to the current general trend of the world, one day, the lord of his own family will unify the world and rebuild a new dynasty. A unified country should have a unified mainstream ideology.
Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, Confucianism has gradually become the mainstream ideology of the world's society and the mainstream ideology of the state to rule the people of Li.
Since the great Confucian Dong Zhongshu put forward the idea of ......overthrowing a hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone", it has been completely revealed...... Confucianism has become the mainstream ideology of the Han Dynasty and has become the norm for regulating the morality and behavior of the Li people!
Today, nearly 400 years after the founding of the Han Dynasty, Confucianism has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people; It has long been the only mainstream idea that has become the family, the powerful and the powerful, and even the entire royal aristocracy, ruling and educating the people.
At present, it is unrealistic for the lord of his family to restart the hundred schools of thought and reproduce the grand occasion of the contention of the hundred schools. After all, the hundred schools of thought have gradually declined, and it is not easy to restart different thoughts.
Besides, if there is no unified thinking, the whole country is afraid of ...... Get caught up in the confusion of your minds! If that happens, the whole country will fall into division!
"Lord!"
Jiang Wan thought about it for a while, and he already had a plan in his heart, and immediately stood up, gave a salute, and said solemnly with a solemn face: "In Jiang Wan's foolish opinion...... Restarting the hundred schools of thought and reproducing the contention of the hundred schools of thought is probably not a good strategy, please think twice! ”
"Gong Yan and talk about it in detail, I would like to hear it in detail!"
Li Mu looked in Jiang Wan's direction and said aloud with a smile on his face.
"Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, Confucianism has ...... It has long become the mainstream ideology of the country, and it has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is difficult to change it! ”
Jiang Wan said the thoughts in his heart without reservation, and at the end, he strongly admonished: "If the lord is ...... The restart of the hundred schools of thought will inevitably attract ...... The confusion of the minds of the whole country. At that time, the thinking of the hundred schools of thought will definitely compete with Confucianism and strive to be the mainstream ideology of the country. In this way, I am afraid that it will be ...... Endanger the unity of the country and the consistency of government decrees! Please think twice! ”
Li Mu nodded, and immediately, looking at Zhuge Liang's direction, he asked, "What does Kong Ming think?" ”
"Lord, what Gong Yan said is reasonable!"
Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan in his hand lightly, and said solemnly with a solemn face: "It is even more difficult to easily change the mainstream thinking of the country, and if you are not careful, it will inevitably endanger ...... The unity of the whole country! ”
"Confucius emphasized 'benevolence'! Mencius emphasized 'righteousness'! Xunzi advocates 'etiquette and law'! Dong Zhongshu's Neo-Confucianism, nominally, seems to be 'Confucianism inside and outside', but in fact, it is still absolutely advocating 'Confucianism'! ”
Li Mu looked around at the people in the hall and said in a solemn voice: "Although the neo-Confucianism advocated by Dong Zhongshu is conducive to the rule of the royal nobles and the powerful families, it is not conducive to ...... The intellectualization of the people of the world. From another point of view, it is precisely because ...... 'Confucianism alone and overthrow a hundred schools' that the entire world's thinking will be solidified under Confucianism's own thoughts. This is undoubtedly ...... A policy of fooling the people! ”
After listening to what their lord said, everyone thought about it for a while, and some agreed and some disagreed. After all, Confucianism, which is also their mainstream thought, is difficult to change for a while!
"Dynasties will change, and everything in the world is changing!"
"To give a very simple example, in the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, the Spring and Autumn Period, bronze utensils were the mainstream utensils in the whole world. But in the Warring States Period, and now in the Han Dynasty, iron tools have become the mainstream utensils in the world. ”
"The utensils and objects are still changing ahead of time, and the ruling ideology of the country is ...... How can it be the same? If we blindly stick to the old ways, the country will not be able to develop! ”
"If so...... Can't change with the times, can't keep pace with the times, even if another thousand years pass, the entire Chinese world is still in ignorance and stagnation! That kind of result...... Will it be you...... Want to see it? ”
Li Mu looked around at the people in the hall with a solemn face, and said in a deep voice full of emotion.
/>
Hearing what his lord said, the expressions on everyone's faces were not only solemn, but also solemn. Everyone looked at each other, and for a moment, they didn't know how to reply. Li Mu's remarks are indeed a bit ahead of their time, and it's no wonder that they can't understand it.
"Throughout the ages, the class standard of 'Shinong Industry and Commerce' has not changed! The reason for ...... The reason for listing the class of 'scholars' as the first class in the world is that the emperors of many times have relied on the people of Li to obtain the world, and when the world is settled, they have relied on the class of scholars to oppress the people! ”
"The reason why the 'peasant' class is listed as the second class in the world is not because the emperor of the times respected and valued the people, but simply because...... They want to squeeze and exploit the labor of the common people to gain supreme wealth and status for them! But in the end...... Among the people of the world, how many are ...... Worry-free and well-fed? ”
"The reason why the 'merchant' class is regarded as the fourth class of the world is that the merchant can earn money without working in the fields. And, generally speaking, even if heavy taxes were levied on merchants, the standard of living of merchants was much higher than that of the common people! How could the emperor of the times allow merchants to grow and threaten their rule? ”
"Looking at the whole world, I'm Li Mu...... It is safe to say that only the merchants under the rule of the Liangzhou Army are not only large in number, but also not limited by the status class! I'm Li Mu...... It can also be said with certainty that the living standards of the people under the rule of the Liangzhou Army are much higher than the living standards of the people in other states and counties! The improvement of people's living standards is inseparable from businessmen! ”
Li Mu paced in the center of the hall, and said in a solemn voice with a solemn expression: "Over the years...... As long as the peasants and industrialists under the rule of the Liangzhou Army acted in accordance with the law, we did not discriminate against them. Since the class of farmers and businessmen can be changed, the mainstream ideology of the country ...... Why can't it be changed? ”
After listening to what his father-in-law said, everyone understood a little in their hearts, right...... The Lord often said that everything is not perfect, and the same is true of Confucianism, which has advantages and disadvantages, and can change from time to time.
"The lord is so far-sighted, rare in the world!"
Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan in his hand lightly, and his expression was full of determination and said loudly: "The lord wants to restart the grand occasion of a hundred schools of thought, but he wants to ...... Confucianism and law are used together to govern the world's society? ”
Li Mu smiled and nodded!
