Chapter 160: The Controversy of Zen Concession
Zhao Yong officially ascended the throne, and the turbulent situation in the whole world was calmed down again. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
However, just when the political situation in the world is stabilizing, the academic atmosphere in the Jixia School Palace has become more and more tense!
All of this has to be said to be related to Dai Yan's school of science coming to the bottom and breaking the balance between the various schools.
Since Dai Yan came to Jixia, what he has done is only to promote science and interpret the laws of nature, and in order not to be attacked by various families, he has not participated in the debates on political theories in various schools.
However, the scientific theories put forward by Dai Yan are too powerful in interpreting the laws of nature, and even more so in terms of argumentation. In this way, the Eastern Mo of dialectics and interpretation of the laws of nature will be suppressed extremely miserably. Seeing that he could not argue with the school of science, Dongmo had to return to politics and compete with various schools.
The Mo family worships Xia Yu, and they especially respect Xia Yu's acceptance of Yu Shun's Zen concession! In their opinion, if Emperor Shun hadn't given Yu so much power, and even handed over the power of the entire world to Yu, how could Yu be able to control the floods, and finally settle Kyushu and settle the world?
Therefore, in Dongmo's view, the best political system is the Zen system! If a country wants to be truly prosperous, rich and strong, it must find a real sage and give him the power of the country, so that he can reform the maladministration and govern the country with confidence! And the greatest transfer of power in the country is to let the monarch practice the real Zen concession!
As soon as Zen Rang's thoughts were raised, they immediately detonated the entire Jishita! What is amazing is that Confucianism, the sworn enemy of the Mo family, actually stood on the side of the Mo family for the first time this time, and also began to advocate the Zen system!
The union of Confucianism and Mohism is actually very easy to understand. Because although Confucianism advocates the highest governance through morality, it is not really a waste in the specific governance of the country after all, and they also advocate the governance of virtuous people!
Of course, the "sages" they understand are not the same as those of each family, and it doesn't matter whether the "sages" in the eyes of Confucianism are talented or not, but they must be virtuous! As long as your moral level is high enough to influence your subjects through your morality, you can make the country stable!
Moreover, in the eyes of Confucianism, the era of the three kings of antiquity is the most beautiful era in the whole world! The rule of three generations should be the template for the governance of the world! For example, the world is so chaotic today, it is because there is no Zen system advocated by the ancient holy kings!
In Confucianism, a Confucian scholar wrote an article describing the process of the three kings of Yao Shunyu, and called the Zen concession "the most benevolent person".
Although there were many factions due to the split in Confucianism, not all of them were really on the side of Dongmo; However, Confucianism and Mohism are both prominent scholars in the world, and when these two forces are united, the power of the Jixia School Palace immediately becomes unstoppable!
Even the Zongheng School, which was more and more valued by the nations with the conquest of the world, could not compete with it, and after the Confucianism and Mo Union, the expansion of the Zongheng School in the Jixia School was significantly inhibited.
The Zongheng School did not expect that the Zongheng technique promoted by the Jixia School Palace could not be applied to the country's struggle for power, but it was first used by Confucianism and Mohists to deal with it.
Seeing that the wind of Zen concession in the Jixia School Palace was becoming more and more intense, and it was almost sweeping Jixia, the Taoist school from the official school of Qi finally stood up and began to strongly refute the Zen system!
In the Qi State, as an official Taoist, it is not like the "inaction" that everyone thinks, they are a group of schools that pay attention to power and strategy, and they pay attention to "doing everything"! Otherwise, there would not be two schools of thought, the Zonghengjia and the Legalist, which would have branched off from them!
The Legalist scholar in the Taoist school was cautious and immediately criticized the theory of Chan Rang, he called Chan Rang "a conspiracy against the law", and joined forces with the Qi Guanzi school, and said bluntly: "Since ancient times, the so-called holy monarch and the master have forced the emperor to kill the king and seek his own benefit. Shun forced Yao, Yu forced Shun, Tang Fangji, King Wu cut the Xuan, these four kings, the ministers killed their kings, and the world is famous. ”
This statement of the Legalist immediately completely opposed it to Confucianism, because according to the Legalist point of view, not only the three kings of ancient times have stains on their bodies, but even the founding of Shang and Zhou is a rebellion committed by the following! This map cannon is just too big!
And the Taoist faction that represents the official learning of the Qi State is also extremely unpeaceful. Peng Meng and Tian Piao, the pair of masters and apprentices, also immediately began to refute the Confucianism and Momo's theory of Zen concessions, because if you look at the Zen concessions they defined, the process of replacing the Jiang Qi Kingdom by the Tian Clan's Qi State did not have a "Zen concession", which is obviously extremely unfavorable to the current Qi State.
It was only with great difficulty that they forcibly used the "Mandate of Heaven" to explain the process of the Tian clan's dynasty and legitimize the Tian clan's rule, how could they let Rumo subvert their views like this?
They immediately put forward various facts, one by one to prove that Zen Rangzhi is nothing more than a beautiful legend that does not stand up to scrutiny. Moreover, the way of power in the world has its own laws, and if it is forcibly changed, it will inevitably cause disaster!
Today's Jixia School Palace is in its heyday, although the influence of the two Daofa families in the world has not yet risen, but their current leaders are all real elites! When it comes to refuting Confucianism, it is all reasonable, evidence-based and responsible, and Confucianism immediately began to passive.
At such a moment, Mencius, as the leader of Confucianism, should stand up for Confucianism, but strangely, Mencius's reaction to this matter was surprisingly calm, without the slightest change.
However, Confucianism can grow into today's prominent learning and become a scholar under the grass, of course, it is not the only means. As soon as they saw that the official school began to exert its strength, and the debate was a little difficult, the Confucian factions immediately gave up the discipline of scholars and began to give full play to the characteristics of Confucianism's "Spring and Autumn Brushwork", and blatantly falsified!
In order to prove that Chan Rang is true, some Confucian scholars even openly forged the "Yao Dian" and "Da Yu Mo" in the "Book of Shang", and wrote Chan Rang according to their wishes!
This makes everyone intolerable, the two schools of Taoism and law are elites, how can they let Confucianism use such a means to succeed? As a result, various schools refuted it, and even other schools began to write classical texts to promote their ideas.
In the entire Jixia, the only ones who were not involved in this ideological battle were Zou Yan's Yin Yang School and Dai Yan's School of Science.
Since Zou Yan lost to Dai Yan in the debate, he took the initiative to overthrow the set of the Yin and Yang family, and Wude always said that he was not born under Ji, which has to be said to be a pity.
Although Zou Yan wanted to create a new doctrine based on the astronomical and geographical system described by Dai Yan, he had only been able to accept this doctrine for a short time, and it was obvious that he could not create a new doctrine in such a short period of time.
And Dai Yan's silence about the dispute over Zen concession is not because he really doesn't want to participate in this debate.
Since Dai Yan came to the Qi Kingdom and entered the Jixia Academy, his intentions have been extremely obvious: to promote science, occupy the high frontier of the world's thoughts, arm himself with ideas, and defeat the enemy!
The doctrine he preached did not involve political science, not because he did not want to do so, but because he knew very well that although the doctrines of the peasant school and the Southern Mo school were combined, the foundation of science was still extremely weak, and it was far from being able to fight against such prominent schools as Confucianism and Taoism.
He needs to wait for a better opportunity to make a move and complete a one-hit kill!
