Chapter 18: On the Word
The old man also smiled with a sigh: "It may be too early for you to understand these things now......"
"The teacher is serious. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Mr. info wants the people of China in the world to no longer suffer from war, and Zheng'er admires it very much. Zhao Zheng said respectfully.
"The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit!" The old man in the middle said helplessly.
This time, Zhao Zheng did not respond. Because, he really didn't know how to answer the old man in the middle of the hide. The Warring States, this troubled era, is even worse than the Spring and Autumn Period. In the Spring and Autumn Period, no matter how big or small the country is, no matter how high or low the world is, fame is greater than profit. And now, it has gradually become more profitable than famous. The most typical example is that Qin Xiang Zhang Yi deceived Chu and deceived the king of Chu three times, if he had died in the Spring and Autumn Period, he would have died many times. That's why the Confucian sage Mencius had the famous "Fish and Bear's Paw".
"That's it, that's it. How to solve the future affairs by the people of the future generations, I just need to do a good job in the present. The old man seemed to see through everything and comforted himself.
"Zheng'er, you are the son of Qin, although you are living in embarrassment now, you still have a noble status. What do you want to learn? The old man looked at Zhao Zheng again and asked with a smile.
Zhao Zheng replied without the slightest hesitation: "Emperor's Learning!" ”
When the old man heard Zhao Zheng's answer, he was shocked. "Is this the Emperor Star? Is it just a seven-year-old child, already with such a goal? The old man thought in shock.
"Are you sure? Then why didn't you want to be an emperor who was famous for the ages? The old man asked in a hoarse voice and suspiciously.
Zhao Zheng looked at the old man in the middle of the hidden seriously, and said seriously: "It is Zheng'er who has seven emotions and six desires, so Zheng'er wants to try to become an emperor of the ages!" ”
"How?!" This time, the old man was not only shocked, but also full of questions.
"Zheng'er wants to repay his mother and let his mother sit in the most honorable position in the world, which is filial piety!"
"Zheng'er wants to unify China, annex South Vietnam, North Xiongnu, and get rid of the harm of my China for all eternity, this is righteous!"
"In the world, filial piety and righteousness are great good, and if Zheng'er wants to do all these two, how can he become a ruthless and senseless person."
"In the end," Zhao Zheng smiled lightly and said a little mischievously, "Since the teacher wants to cultivate Zheng'er into an emperor's talent, if Zheng'er doesn't do it, won't he live up to the teacher's teaching." Moreover, the heavens are with it, and they do not take it as a thief! ”
The old man listened to it and was silent for a long time.
Zhao Zheng's heart was also pounding, he had just arrived at the teacher's house for only one day, oh no, he didn't make a lot of nonsense before he had an hour, would it annoy the teacher?
"Well, maybe I'm wrong. Since Zheng'er can have such ambitions, I am very happy for the teacher. Not...... From ancient times to the present, there are three ways to be a human king. I'll tell you everything, you can choose which one you like the most. The old man was no longer entangled, sighed, and continued.
"Zheng'er listens." Zhao Zheng rubbed his hands together and made a look of listening carefully.
"First, such as the three emperors and five emperors, educating all the people, and spreading benevolence, this is the emperor's way." After speaking, the old man looked at Zhao Zheng.
Zhao Zheng thought lightly for a moment and shook his head, seemingly dissatisfied.
The old man was not angry, and continued: "Second, like the Zhou State, the implementation of the division of the seal, to bind it with etiquette, this is the royal way. ”
Zhao Zheng frowned, thought for a while, and shook his head again.
The old man continued to say the third method: "Third, it is just like today's Qin State, fight for hegemony with force, and stop the war with war!" This is overbearing! When the old man said the last method, his voice trembled and excited involuntarily.
This time, Zhao Zheng obviously thought about it for longer than before, but in the end, he shook his head.
The old man was confused by Zhao Zheng's reaction again. Among the methods used by the emperor, the king, and the domineering to rule the world, Zhao Zheng actually looked down on any of them?
"Zheng'er, do you think none of these three methods are suitable for you?" The old man asked.
"Teacher Hui, although these three methods are good, they are not permanent methods."
After hearing this, the old man nodded and motioned to Zhao Zheng with his eyes to continue.
Zhao Zheng took a deep breath and said: "When the three emperors and five emperors were in ancient times, all the people were not educated, and they were no different from savages. Therefore, the Three Emperors and Five Emperors went to educate them and gave them benefits, and the simple people would naturally support them. ”
Zhao Zheng paused, and seeing that the old man Zhongyin did not interrupt him, he continued: "In the Zhou Dynasty, after nearly a thousand years, some people began to disregard morality for their own interests. Zhou Gong satisfied the desires of these people with a seal, and used Zhou etiquette to standardize etiquette. Therefore, both the nobles of the upper echelons and the common people at the bottom can benefit. ”
"However, when it came to the Warring States, the Seven Heroes stood up. The kings of all countries are no longer satisfied with the land they once had, and even the common people below are eager to make a difference. Feng Hou worships the prime minister, Meng Ze's heir. Therefore, all countries are fighting endlessly, countries are united vertically and horizontally, and etiquette and law are abolished. Only by being hegemonic and stopping war with war can we achieve true peace. ”
"So, do you want to dominate Huaxia with domineering first, and then promote the royal road?" As soon as the old man heard Zhao Zheng's analysis, he slightly guessed Zhao Zheng's thoughts.
Zhao Zheng nodded at first, and then shook his head quickly.
"In this era when etiquette is abolished and morality is flouted, the only way to end it is to kill all your enemies with the sword. Therefore, Zheng'er also believes that only hegemony can push a country to the top and turn the king of a country into a real son of heaven. ”
However, Zheng'er is not optimistic about the old etiquette of the Zhou Dynasty. Therefore, it will not promote the royal road. ”
"You want to introduce a new political policy?" The old man asked with a narrow squint.
Zhao Zheng nodded firmly and said: "Zheng'er wants to establish a political and legal system centered on the Son of Heaven, everything in the world depends on the Son of Heaven, and truly represent the herdsmen of the heavens." ”
The old man frowned, trying to think about the feasibility of this method.
After Zhao Zheng finished saying his thoughts, he suddenly breathed a sigh. There is still a lot of pressure to play a big knife in front of such a peerless wise man as the old man in the middle of the shadow.
However, Zhao Zheng was not worried that his proposed idea would be vetoed by the old man in the middle of the hermit.
Zhao Zheng is a person who came from later generations, whether it is the real history or the world of Qin Shi Mingyue, it has proved the superiority of the monarch ****.
The Qin Dynasty in history was also a complete transition from slavery to feudalism in China.
Of course, Zhao Zheng did not think about the so-called constitutional monarchy or democratic republic system in later generations. However, after living in such a big dye vat in the Warring States period, Zhao Zheng has completely given up such an idea.
The Warring States period is not a later generation, it is difficult for the vast number of civilians to get a real education, there is no difference between them and illiteracy at all, coupled with the vast territory and large population of China, the democratic republican system is simply not possible.
Perhaps, a constitutional monarchy would seem like a good option. In fact, it is not true, the hearts of the people of the Warring States are greedy. In this society with a weak legal system, the nobles of the upper class were much more greedy than the merchants of later generations. Once the so-called constitutional monarchy is implemented, then the country will definitely be bitten apart by this group of greedy wolves!
Zhao Zheng just looked at the old man in the middle of the hidden in this quiet, and after waiting for a long time, the old man finally woke up from his contemplation.
It's no wonder that the old man in the middle of the hidden world would meditate on such an old thing, and it is always difficult for people who have adapted to the old life to accept and change, not to mention that it is still the national policy of thousands of people in the country. The fact that the old man can seriously think about the feasibility of it is enough to show his extraordinary side.
The old man sighed again and said: "This method is indeed unusual, if it can be really implemented for hundreds of years, then in the future, even if China is divided again, there will always be someone to unify China, which is not only the old system of the predecessors, but also the greed of the people's hearts." A very nice idea, just ......"
"Zheng'er, of course I understand what the teacher is thinking. Once the whole world is in charge of the Son of Heaven, then the division must be canceled, and the absence of the princes means that there is no old six kingdoms, or even the nobles of the seven kingdoms, which is undoubtedly the enemy of the nobles of the world. ”
The old man nodded silently, this was what he was worried about.
The old man looked at Zhao Zheng again, hoping that Zhao Zheng could answer again, and in an instant, the identities of the two seemed to have been exchanged.
Zhao Zheng shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Teacher, that's all Zheng'er can think of. As for how to solve it, we can only think about it later. ”
When the old man heard this, he was also happy, and secretly said that he would fall into a daze because of a seven-year-old child.
In fact, there were many ways to deal with the contradictions between the princes and the Son of Heaven in later generations, the most outstanding of which was the Tui'en Decree put forward by Chao Cuo during the reign of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty. After the implementation of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it was very successful.
However, Zhao Zheng is now a seven-year-old child, and it is already amazing to be able to put forward such an idea as a monarch. If you say the Tui En Order, it is estimated that it will be seen as a demon.
