Are you kidding? Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty "deposed a hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism alone", Confucianism has developed for thousands of years and has already penetrated into all aspects of society, whether it is the emperor who holds the world, the important ministers above the court, or the peddlers and pawns in the market, all of them are Confucian disciples.

Confucianism is the outline of society, the humanity of clans, the foundation of empires, and the latitude and longitude of the world.

What kind of madman would want to go against Confucianism as a whole?

That's not a mantis arm as a car, but a mayfly shaking a tree......

Fang Jun glared at Yu Ming with an expressionless face: "Don't talk nonsense, if you say this, people will die, do you know?" I just want to do what I can for the people, so that the people's lives are better and better, and I don't want to be a businessman, let alone Wang Mang. ”

Shang Ying did lay the foundation for Qiang Qin to sweep the six-in-one and dominate the world, but against all vested interests, the end was to die and be torn apart and the whole clan was annihilated.

And Wang Mang, who is recognized as the "most suspected traverser", was even more miserable, his head hung in Wan City after his death, and dozens of sergeants rushed to kill and split his body. Even the common people heard that Wang Mang's head was in Wanshi, and they rushed up, "to attack it together, or to cut his tongue"......

The head of this monarch was collected by the royal family of later dynasties, until the time of Emperor Hui of Jin, the Luoyang arsenal was burned and turned into ashes.

Fang Jun wants to do something to change the inherent social structure, develop natural science, make Datang stronger, and make the people's lives richer. But he will never sacrifice himself and his family for a certain "Wei Guangzheng" ideal.

He was not a great man, not in his previous life, and not in this life.

He is not Fan Zhongyan who "worries about the world first, and enjoys the joy of the world after the world", not Wang Anshi who "cultivates himself and cleans, and his words must be made by rope and ink", and he is not "the sun and the moon are bright, and all countries look up to the son of tomorrow; The hills and mountains are the mountains, and the Quartet praises the Taiyue Xianggong......

He is just Fang Jun, a small bureaucrat in his previous life, and a little gentleman in this life, with a little ideal and ability, that is, he hopes that the country will be strong, and he loves his wife and children.

At the end of the day, even if rebirth gives him knowledge and vision beyond a millennium, he is just an ordinary person.

Yu Ming held the tea bowl in his hand, and became more and more confused: "Then what are you going to do?" ”

Fang Jun said indifferently: "It's just a matter of developing natural science, and then knowing the character, knowing and then sincerity, sincerity and then sincerity, heart and then body cultivation, body cultivation and then family Qi, family Qi and then national governance, national governance and then world peace, this is the words of the sage." But if you look at the officials now, they have been familiar with the subset of scriptures and history since childhood, and they are full of economy, but how many officials in the Ministry of Industry know how to build and repair, and how many officials in the Ministry of Household know how to count the mysteries? The layman guides the insider, how can the work be done well? A "Analects" to rule the world, such a thing is absolutely unacceptable. ”

The phrase "half of the Analects rules the world" is about Zhao Pu, which has not yet appeared at this time, and the original intention is not to be sarcastic, but to say that Zhao Pu, a big man, has only read a copy of the "Analects" and has not yet understood it, but he can also be quite good......

The first time Yu Ming heard about it, he thought it was true. In particular, the sentence "laymen guide insiders" is even more to the point.

However, Confucianism occupies all the resources of officialdom, although the officials are not necessarily Confucian children, but as long as they are scholars, they must read Confucian classics, such as "Book of Songs", "Book of Rites", "Book of Rites", "Book of Music", "Zhou Yi", "Spring and Autumn", "Analects", "Book of Rites", "Zuo Chuan", ......

How many people will read the Tao Te Ching, the Art of War, and the Zhou Ji Sutra?

It's not that no one reads it, it's that it's useless to read it......

What he didn't know was that after the rise of the imperial examination controlled by Confucianism in history, it was even more dominant, and all the classics of the hundred schools were discarded, although they were not accused of "heresy", but they gradually fell into the dust.

Yu Ming said strangely: "Although what you said is very reasonable, don't you still want to go against Confucianism?" ”

Fang Jun hurriedly shook his head: "How come?" In the future, even if the college is set up with subjects such as military science, engineering, mathematics, astronomy, etc., the overall program will still be Confucianism as the core, supplemented by various natural disciplines, and the leading position of Confucianism will never be shaken. ”

In such an era of prosperity of Confucianism, the priority must be clearly distinguished, if Confucianism believes that the so-called natural disciplines of the academy will affect the absolute leadership of Confucianism, then Confucianism in the world will definitely rise up to attack it. Without the support of Confucianism, no matter how huge the academy is, it is just a fortress on the beach, and a tide will fall apart......

"This kid wants to emulate the Legalist!"

In the Liangyi Palace, His Majesty Li Er looked at the Yu Ming clan in front of him, and said the purpose of breaking Fang Jun.

Yu Ming knelt on the mat and nodded with a smile.

His Majesty Li Er shook his head and said with a smile: "That kid is a ghost, isn't he angry when he uses the old patriarch like this?" ”

"Being used by others shows that there is still value in being used, and that is a good thing. If this old bone is useless and is ignored and abandoned, then it is time to mourn. is old and talented, and can be seen in the eyes of young people like Fang Erlang and used with all his efforts, not only is he not annoyed, but he is very pleased. ”

Yu Ming said with a smile on his face.

His Majesty Li Er laughed and greatly appreciated Yu Ming's willingness to be "used".

Fang Jun's words were said by Yu Ming, which could indeed minimize the impact, and also made Confucianism not hurt himself even if he had a backlash.

What is not against Confucianism?

It's just a matter of covering your ears and stealing the bell.

The sentence "A "Analects" rules the world" is Chiguoguo's irony, which means that Confucian children can only retreat, and the four books and five classics of the subset of classics and history talk about the Tao, but they have no real professional talent.

"Laymen guide insiders", what a brilliant way to say!

Whoever came up with such an idea would be concerned by Confucianism. If Confucianism dismisses this, it is okay, but if Confucianism reacts violently, then this person will become the target of public criticism, and it will not be slaughtered as a "heretic", but if you want to mix in the officialdom, it is absolutely impossible.

However, Yu Ming's is not in this category......

Yu Ming's inheritance has been inherited for thousands of years, his status is transcendent, and the way of heaven and man pursued by Confucianism is not in line with him.

However, according to Fang Jun's description, the entire construction process of the academy is a process in which countless physical limits are applied, which can give Yu Ming's too many opportunities to explore the "way of heaven and man", how could Yu Ming's miss it?

Instead of missing out, they are willing to be used.

The words were passed to the ears of His Majesty Li Er through Yu Ming's family, and he picked himself cleanly, Fang Jun, this kid, is very ......

"According to the old patriarch, how much can Fang Jun's mind be successful?" His Majesty Li Er waved his hand, ordered Wang De, who was standing on one side, to pour tea for Yu Ming's family, and asked.

Yu Ming greeted Wang De slightly, and asked rhetorically: "Your Majesty asked about how much success the academy has, or does Fang Jun follow the idea of the Legalists to attach natural disciplines to Confucianism?" ”

His Majesty Li Er said: "Naturally, it's the latter. As for whether the college can be built...... Fang Jun's other skills may be commonplace, but his ability to accumulate money is still very set, even if the amount of money required to build the academy is huge, there must be a way to raise it. Just if you want to build an academy, money alone is not enough, and without the support of Confucianism, it will definitely not be able to build it. Will Confucianism acquiesce in or even support the natural sciences in the same way that Legalism is attached to Confucianism in a posture of 'outer Confucianism and internal law'? ”

Confucianism is the foundation of the emperor's notice, but the emperors and Confucian scholars of all dynasties have realized that relying on Confucianism alone is not good for governing the country.

Confucianism develops the political ideological system of people-oriented and benevolent government with the concept of "the will of the people is the heaven" and the concept of virtue matching the heavens, emphasizing important political principles such as "establishing the monarch for the people", "the people are the only country", "the people are noble and the monarch is light", and "benevolence and love for the people", showing the important position of the people in the national political system. It is hoped that the political power of the monarch can be limited through the political principle of the people, and finally the "will of the people" can be conformed and expressed.

He even inherited the idea of "matching heaven with virtue" in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and proposed to let the monarch imitate the "holy king" of three generations, and let the emperor and scholars become "gentlemen". In short, this requires the ruling class to consciously pursue the moral ideal personality of sages and gentlemen from top to bottom, and ultimately achieve the goal of national governance of "respecting heaven and protecting the people" and "benevolence and love for the people".

However, the ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny, and it is obviously too idealistic to make a society completely based on morality as the code of conduct.

Therefore, when Confucianism realized its own problems, Legalism had to compromise in the general trend of Confucianism dominating the world, and the two came into contact with each other and instantly hooked up......
