Chapter 238: The Covenant of the Ink Alliance
Chapter 230: The Covenant of the Ink Alliance is fully concluded
Perhaps because of the relationship between majors, the study of history or the majors linked to history seem to be a bit subjective and ideological.
Of course, it can also be understood as reverence for the sages.
Especially in later generations, when the entire modern civilization was basically dominated and laid by Western culture, the glorious cultural inheritance of China was sometimes somewhat weak in the face of modern material culture, especially in science.
And the Mo family can be regarded as an existence that can win back a city in this regard, and it is blown out by the melon-eating masses who don't know the truth.
Although many of the mysterious sciences that exist in the literature of the Mohists have not been able to reproduce them until now, they cannot be proved to be non-existent, and the authenticity can only be slowly confirmed through archaeological research.
Therefore, for the Mo family, Wang Xu is one of the more familiar schools, and the excavation of the remains of the Mo family is also a major topic in the archaeological field, after all, this school that dominated the ns for a hundred years during the period of the hundred schools of thought, the documents and evidence that have really been handed down are relatively few.
If it weren't for the unearthed documents and cultural relics that confirm that this school did exist, it might have been kicked out by the historiography community a long time ago.
However, from the only surviving documents and the Mohist doctrine sorted out by later generations, it can be seen that it is not for nothing that the Mohists can dominate the NS for a hundred years in the era of hundreds of schools of thought and sages.
Generally speaking, Mohism is a very complete and comprehensive school, with both idealistic and materialist practical theories, and they can go hand in hand with both without bias.
It's a scary subject.
Because in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Legalists and soldiers, who mainly reformed the law, were the practical schools, so they were reused in the great country at the same time, and finally achieved the unification of the Great Qin.
Many people think that Shang Ying's reform is a necessary factor for the success of Qin, but in fact, no, before Shang Ying began to change the law, Qin Xiangong had already begun to change the law, and when Shang Ying took over Qin Xiangong's reform, Li Kui of Wei had already successfully changed the law, and then Wu Qi completed the reform in Chu State, and then Ju Xin and Le Yi also implemented the change in Yan State.
Moreover, these countries that have undergone changes in the law have all benefited from a period of time, and this is the role of the materialist pragmatists, who can see immediate results and prove the correctness of their theories in turn.
However, on the other hand, the Yang Zhu family, led by the idealist theorists, and Confucianism were not valued by the king at that time, but slowly verified their theoretical role in the next thousand years.
However, Mohist and these schools of individual development seem to be different, it is very comprehensive, comprehensive and even somewhat untraceable.
Confucianism, Legalism, Yin-Yang and other schools of thought have traces to follow and can find their source in Taoism.
But the Mohists don't seem to be good, and the Mohists seem to be a very comprehensive doctrine that suddenly appeared in this era.
At the time of the hundred schools, the famous put forward a proposition that the white horse is not a horse, which shocked the world's schools, which is a proposition about logic, and many gentlemen of the Jixia Academy were impressed by this proposition, and finally Mo Zhai used a more powerful and meticulous logic to p this proposition.
At the same time, it also laid the earliest and most complete logical system in China.
Logic is a very important thing, important enough to shape the values of the entire society and civilization, and Mo Zhai, who has such a powerful logic, even if he is really born to know, still needs to understand the basic origin logic of the society at that time to understand it.
And the logic of the society at that time should have been handed down from the ancient Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties.
However, judging from the conventional theory of the origin of life culture, there is nothing that is directly born without going through the process of development, whether it is theory or practice.
Unless the Mohists are foreign, or they have experienced a longer history of development than the Taoists, but there are some faults in this history, so the source cannot be traced back when the Mohists appear.
The historical fault in China, only the Xia, Shang and Zhou periods, although it cannot be proven, but at least in Wang Xu's point of view, the Mo family should be a doctrine that completely inherited the civilization of the Xia and Shang dynasties.
Moreover, in addition, the Mo family was born to dominate the ns, and when it was strong, it was able to mediate the major vassal states, mediate disputes, and even the overlord princes had to give some face, which further confirmed that this is a school with a foundation.
At the same time, what Wang Xu admires about the Mo family is not the concept of the school, what he appreciates most is the core spirit of the Mo family's self-suffering.
The so-called self-suffering is to sacrifice oneself and benefit the world.
Mencius described the Mohists as wearing fur brown and straw shoes as clothes, working day and night, and suffering for themselves.
It means that the Mo family lives a life worse than beggars, but they carry the righteousness of the world on their shoulders and are proud of their own suffering.
This kind of dedication can be used as a very high moral spirit, putting aside the material n, complete spiritual enjoyment, such a person, it is easy to arouse the respect and yearning of others, but want to become such a person, for most people, it is very difficult.
That's why the word hero always makes most people inexplicably shocked to tears.
It was not the heroic actions that moved them, but the unhesitating spirit of sacrifice behind them.
The person Wang Xu ideally respects is such a person, so he has a good impression of the Mo family.
But now this group of people is ready to sacrifice others to fulfill themselves, which makes Wang Xu a little disgusted.
There is a kind of knowledge and values that I learned from school when I was a child, and when I enter society, I find that what I am taught in school seems to be wrong.
Such a sense of disparity made Wang Xu very annoyed.
Looking at the Zhu family, Wang Xu frowned and asked, "Have the Mo family's creed and regulations changed?" ”
The Zhu family was slightly stunned.
"Go to the soup and fight the sword, and die without spinning the word, the Mo family doesn't value it anymore?" Wang Xu squinted, and his voice was slightly cold.
The face of the Zhu family did not change, "The disciples of the Mo family dare not forget, and they have never changed, even under the pull and differentiation of the Qin royal family over the years, the Mo family has never wavered in the slightest. ”
"Then now that the Qin royal family has broken the covenant, are you going to betray them?" Wang Xu frowned and asked, "Then if I can't meet your requirements in the future, won't you also betray me, so why am I taking the risk to contain you?" ”
"The Qin royal family violated the covenant, and it has nothing to do with our betrayal of him, when the Mo family respected the elders and Qin Xian, the Qin family helped the Mo family to multiply, and the Mo family helped the Qin family to become stronger, and now the Qin family is strong, and the Mo family can be regarded as relieved, and the mutual benefit ends with mutual benefit, and it is in line with morality to part ways, and there is no betrayal." The Zhu family said with a serious expression, "As for the betrayal that the emperor said, the Mo family's ink rules do not violate the giant." ”
Wang Xu raised his eyebrows slightly and chuckled, "I thought you were a Mo man, but it turned out to be an ink debater, so you are not afraid that after I became a giant, I changed the Mo family's ink rules?" ”
The Zhu family smiled, "That's a matter of the giant, and the ink master has no right to ask." ”
Wang Xu shook his head, "Since then, I have violated the principle of love, I don't think your Mo family will allow such a giant to exist, from my point of view, once I take over this Mo family giant, it is likely that you will be put in a position of last resort and become a puppet." ”
"The Emperor thinks too highly of our Mo family." The Zhu family shook their heads, "The Mo family just doesn't want to involve anything in the Central Plains, they just want to thrive under the protection of the emperor with peace of mind and wait for the time." ”
Wang Xu narrowed his eyes, "Who gave you that list?" The people above are all children of the Mo family? ”
The Zhu family pondered for a moment and said, "Those are the people who have made a covenant with the giant in the past dynasties, as long as the Mo family has one day, we will protect them thoroughly." ”
"The Mexican Covenant." Wang Xu frowned and read the name, without any memory points, "What is the story behind this covenant?" ”
The Zhu family lowered his eyelids, and his expression was a little embarrassed, "They are all people who were ashamed of the Mo family back then, the Mo family walks the world, and mediates the disputes between countries with the shield of non-attack, but it is not always successful, so the giant son will draw up a covenant with these people, and the Mo family will definitely give them a justice in the future." ”
Wang Xu smiled dumbly, "Your Mo family is difficult to protect itself, and you still have the leisure to take care of these people?" ”
The Zhu family frowned and said in a deep voice: "Even if there is only one person left in the Mo family, they will keep their promise until Mo is extinct." ”
Wang Xu nodded, and subconsciously touched his chin, "I believe this sentence for the time being." ”
The Zhu family's face was a little sad, but he was not angry.
"Who are the main people of the Mexican Covenant?" Wang Xu asked.
The Zhu family looked at Wang Xu in some surprise, "What does the emperor mean?" ”
"I'm just asking, it's okay if you don't want to say." Wang Xu chuckled.
"When the giant asks questions, the disciples must know everything." The Zhu family grinned.
Wang Xu held his forehead and chuckled: "You will climb up the pole." ”
The Zhu family smiled and sorted out his thoughts, "The first generation of giants once swore with the Song Hou Zhao Gong that even if the country was destroyed, they would protect the heirs of the Song Hou Zhao Gongzi without worry, after the Song Dynasty was destroyed by Qi Chu, the Mo family kept the bloodline of the Song Wang clan with the help of Chun Shenjun, and in this generation, the Song prince Huan Chu was in Shangqiu, the Song capital, and was taken care of by the ink Yin Tong. ”
