Chapter 29: The Mo Family (II)
In Ying Zheng's education of Fusu, the cooperation between Qin Xiangong and Mo was the beginning of Qin's rise to strength, and then Qin Xiaogong's reuse of Shang Ying's reform and Qin Huiwang's attempt to claim the title of emperor. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The experience of Xiangong is more like the well-known Gongzi Chong'er and Peter the Great of Russia, who broadened his horizons because of his escape or travel abroad, came into contact with advanced technology and talents, and led the country to become strong; And those who nested in the palace and clamored for power Zhu Yunwen and Guangxu and others were doomed to failure.
At this time, Fusu had roughly guessed what was going on in the Qin State Railway, he didn't know much about Mozi and the Mo family, but Fusu had also heard some of the deeds of the Mo family, some said that Mo Zhai was actually crossing the public, and his name was actually not Mo Zhai but Mo Di, because he appeared from the territory of the Di people for no reason, and after the appearance, there was great progress in science and technology during the Warring States Period; Moreover, he himself does not become an official but encourages his disciples to become officials, which gives people a strange feeling; What is even more strange is that he put forward many ideas, which are clearly aimed at the Confucian viewpoint, as if he already knew how Confucianism would poison the minds of the Chinese people in the next two thousand years.
Ying Zheng saw Fusu's clear look, and was very satisfied with his understanding, pointed to the silk book on the case, and continued: "Yes, the Qin State Rail Road is indeed designed by Xiangli Shimo for the Qin State, in addition, there is also a plank road leading from Guanzhong to Ba County and Shu County, which is also designed and built by the Mo family, and the Mo family is also designing a straight road from Xianyang to all parts of the Qin State. ”
Ying Zheng also revealed to Fusu some construction projects such as Qin's five-year plan and ten-year plan to increase the effectiveness of teaching.
"Do you know what is the difference between the peasants and the army of the Qin State from other countries? They used agricultural tools and weapons made of iron, but the Shandong countries foolishly thought that the weapons made of iron were too sharp, and the casualties were far greater than those of bronze, and they called iron evil gold and discarded it. With the large-scale use of iron tools, the Qin State was able to become rich and invincible. This evil gold is also smelted and forged by the ink of the Xiangli clan. ”
"But you have to know that the Moshi did not help the Qin State for no reason, they helped the Qin State for the sake of Mozi's thoughts, for their beliefs, for example, the tracks, plank roads and the future straight road are in line with their Shangtong, and the military merit system of the Qin State that they vigorously promoted is in line with their non-fateful thoughts, you can learn from Li Si, he took Shang Jun as an example, and Shang Jun's reform has the mark of the Mo family, and he will teach you these things well, about how the track is built, you can let Meng Yi tell you."
Fusu nodded after listening to it, thinking of the movie "Ink Attack" in the old time and space, and he longed for it even more.
Ying Zheng looked at his state and felt that his educational effect was a little too good, so he added: "The world knows that Shang Jun changed the law, but they don't know that there are two reasons why Mo is strong Qin, one is that Mo is Mo but not Qin, Mo is in the Mo family and not in Qin, Mozi has been dead for two hundred years, but Mo is still firmly pursuing Mozi's concept, without discount, no matter whether Qin is strong or not, whether they themselves are rich, they are still thrifty, simple, and unswerving;
Second, compared with the Legalists, the Mohists have only one leader, while the Legalists often have people who change the law, the Mohists believe in Mozi and act single-mindedly, but at the same time they lose the ability to innovate themselves, and they have no new writings after Mozi; There are often people who change the law in the Legalists, and there will always be a person's theory that is suitable for current affairs, so most of the court of the Qin State are Legalists, and there are many Mohist people among the peddlers and pawns of the Qin State. ”
After listening to Ying Zheng's words, Fusu seemed to understand something, Confucianism was dominant in later generations, and there were endless Legalists, and the only thing left of the Mo family was "Mozi" and the legends in the countryside, which may not be without the reason that Ying Zheng said.
With the prosperity of Qin and the approaching war of unification, the Qin State is deviating more and more from the thrifty and non-offensive ideas of the Mo people, and it is a matter of time before the Mo people leave the Qin State or be banned by the Qin State, but as a group that can create a track road that is more than 1,000 years ahead of the world, no ruler will let them be controlled by other countries.
On the other hand, Confucianism, like all later histories, was always the first to surrender and always found an excuse for its surrender as soon as possible, such as the surrender of the Western Jin Dynasty, the fall of the Ming Dynasty, and so on.
After the unification of the Qin State, the stone carvings that sang the praises of Yingzheng came from the hands of Confucianism, and the merits of advocating Yingzheng also came from the hands of Confucianism. It is no wonder that during the Warring States Period, the two major scholars known as non-Confucian and Momo had such different endings.
"What about Confucianism?" Fusu saw that Yingzheng stopped talking after commenting on the two of Mofa, and continued to ask.
"It's just a bunch of dry bones in the mound that sells words, and it's not worth mentioning." Ying Zheng seems to have little interest in Confucianism.
Fusu's eyes widened when he heard this, but he quickly expressed his understanding, he could do it by burning books and pit Confucianism, and it was inevitable to hate Confucianism, unlike the barbarian Qing Emperor in the old time and space who was talking about Confucian governance while engaging in words # prison, the rotten Confucianism killed by Yingzheng was not as good as the fraction of the Confucianism killed by any of the three generations of people, but these three barbarians were all known as promising kings, but Qin Shihuang became a tyrant, and Confucianism was so deceitful and unfair.
The problem of the track was successfully solved, and a pair of military chess that conformed to the national conditions of the Qin State and had the characteristics of the Qin State was born in the spare time of the study career of Fusu, and after Zhang Huo's hand-carving, it would not take long to make its debut.
Compared with the military chess, which requires Fusu to ask Meng Yi for military knowledge, the invention and creation of chess is relatively simple, except for the need to replace the artillery with stone artillery, the Chu River and the Han realm were gently replaced by Fusu with the word river water, and the others have not made any changes.
When he was exploring the track, he promised to give the military chess as a gift to Yingzheng, but after all, the military chess appeared for the first time, and Fusu was not sure whether it could get Yingzheng's like, so Fusu had to find a reason for his gift, which was the reason to use a toy as a gift, and he had to find someone to bless him with this toy. And the person he thought of was his master Li Si.
In the name of visiting the master, Fusu applied to Yingzheng to leave the palace, accompanied by personal bodyguards Xiling and Meng An, Fusu came to Li Si's house all the way, heard the housekeeper next to Li Si said that Li Si had not gone home, so he asked to go to Li Si's study first, under the guidance of the housekeeper, Fusu walked into Li Si's study for the first time, and flipped through Li Si's collection of books, and sighed at the same time Papermaking, when will you succeed in papermaking, the bamboo slips in this room look at a headache.
Fusu found a volume of "Lu Lan" compiled by the former Prime Minister Lü Buwei in Li Si's study, and took it out to look at it carefully, perhaps he was still immersed in the great influence of the Mo family on the Qin State, maybe it was just a coincidence, as he read more, he found that the content of the book in his hand was so consistent with the thoughts of the Mo family, this is a treatise on the funeral, Fusu looked at the title and called "The Funeral", the ideas in this article are very interesting, very similar to the materialist argument, but at the same time there is a very relevant reality, than the old time and space#朝为了火葬而火葬的形式主义要好太多.
While he was fascinated by what he was watching, Xiling reminded him next to him that Li Si had returned home.
"Teacher." Fusu stood respectfully in the courtyard and saluted Li Si, not a political show, but after several years of study, Fusu respected this legal scholar who would make great contributions to the unification of the world in Qin.
Li Si looked at Fusu, who bowed to him, and was very satisfied, his maturity and intelligence made it hard to believe that he was just a six or seven-year-old child. looked at a big man next to him, very proud of himself as another disciple, thinking of Meng Yi and the palace maids who were tricked by him, his face couldn't help but be a little strange, walked to Fusu's side, patted his head gently, and asked softly, "Why did you get to me, does the king know?" ”
