Li Xian's words after that, there will be many versions in the future, the government is stable, Shilin is full of literary brilliance, and the version widely spread among the people is the vulgar vernacular, but no matter which version, the logic is the same, and the appeal is also very clear-

In the actual scene, Li Shi's words were mixed with white and white, and he still substituted himself as a citizen.

"We have to set some rules, but before we make rules, we can distinguish between the inside and outside, and who is 'us'. Is it us who stole the Manchu Tartars who occupied China? No, are we the foreigners who speak Yi language and worship the king of Yi? Of course not. 'We' is Huaxia, and 'we' is Yinghua. Huaxia is a country of blood compatriots, and Yinghua is a country formed by 'we' and the emperor, and it is a country of compatriots who are willing to coexist and coexist and become rich together."

"Therefore, regardless of farmers, workers, businessmen, officials, and ordinary people, or even prisoners of the emperor, as long as they are British and Chinese nationals, they are 'we' and a family. No matter how much the family quarrels, they can't regard their family members as enemies, and they all have to abide by the rules. This is the righteousness of Yinghua, and with this righteousness, we will talk about the rules. ”

"What kind of rules should it be? Rules don't come out of nowhere, rules are what everyone wants. ”

"But everyone's wishes are different, as far as I'm concerned, what do I want the most? If you don't pay silver or field rent, you can sell a stone of rice for a hundred taels of silver, and a pound of salt and a piece of cloth only costs a penny. What does the government want most? If you want me to pay this and that, it is better to pay my trousers, my house, and my ox. What do businessmen want most? Harvesting rice from my hands costs only one penny per stone, and one pound of salt is sold for 100 cents. What does the workshop owner want most? Labor does not need to be paid, and it is better not to eat at all. ”

"What is our greatest wish in the face of our hearts? Unearned! Follow one's heart! And can such a wish be fulfilled without harming others? Not now, and thousands of years from now, I'm afraid it won't work. ”

Therefore, we have to follow the rules that everyone wants, but they do not harm others. There is heaven in the country, and there is the spirit of heaven and man, and this is what it is talking about. ”

When Li Shi said this, the people waited with bated breath, and the scholars, officials, and the quick pens of various newspapers all took out their pens and papers, and they all realized that the emperor was using the spirit of heaven and man to understand the foundation of the founding of the Yinghua country

"Everyone is one in the world. This 'one' is what everyone desires. ”

"There is only one human life, and people cannot be resurrected after death, and we all wish that our lives will not be taken away for no reason."

"We also hope that the fruits of our toil will not be taken away without cause."

"We wish again, as long as we are upright, our reputation will not be taken away for no reason."

Li Xian's voice was raised: "No matter who speaks what reasoning or shouts righteousness, he can't break this rule!" No matter who promises any glory and wealth, or what wonderful future, as long as these rules are broken, it is all clever and deceitful! This is not only the rules of Yinghua, but also the truth in everyone's heart and the righteousness in everyone's heart for thousands of years! ”

"For example, heaven and earth, this 'one' is the earth of the world, this is the bottom of the human heart! This is also the right that God created man, and it was promised that it was as natural as a person who had to breathe in order to live, and this power was in Yinghua, even if it was the emperor, it could not be taken away! Whoever will oppose this righteousness is our enemy! ”

If it was in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, these words were said, I was afraid that the small people would have been terrified, the scholars would grit their teeth and hate, and the officials would have lost their souls. Confucianism also talks about the people's nobility and the gentleness, and also talks about the people's hearts and society, but under the influence of the official Confucianism and the divine authority of the monarch and the three outlines and five constants of Confucianism, these remarks are just a cover for reflecting the king's compassion for the people. The king supports the people, and the subjects are in the hands of the king from their lives to their wealth and even their reputation, and after they are killed and killed, they must be grateful, and have a little resentment, which is disloyal and disrespectful. …,

But this is Yinghua, although it is Jiangnan, the Yinghua trend of thought has been spread in Jiangnan for several years, and everyone is familiar with the relationship between heaven and man. Now the emperor has cut the humanity of heaven and man into the foundation of the country, and the truth of the people's hearts. The scholars and officials all felt suddenly enlightened, and the original void had no way forward, but also suddenly brightened up, and the people also felt feverish, if even the emperor could not take away his life, family wealth and even fame for no reason, this was already the kingdom of heaven in a dream.

"Kong Shengyan, do not suffer from widowhood but suffer from inequality, do not suffer from poverty but suffer from anxiety, I think, this all, this peace, is actually talking about these three articles, and it is also talking about this rule. Everyone abides by the rules, this is the average, because of this rule, everyone has the bottom in their hearts, this is peace. ”

Li Xi talked about Confucianism again, and Liu Dazhu, the head of Huaiyang Academy, trembled violently in his heart, like an initiation, feeling that he had read the sage books for decades in the wrong direction.

Li Xian's remarks, read roughly in Confucian terms, seem to be nothing remarkable, isn't this what Confucius and Meng said? Li Shi said these three "rights of heavenly promise" in Kong Shengyan, isn't it very natural and appropriate?

But if you take a closer look, the difference is simply upside down. Confucianism, etiquette, routine, and Ming monarchs and ministers, this big basket is set down, and the ideal of governance is the rule of the people and all industries, and the harmony that does not harm each other.

But Li Xian's remarks are saying that in today's world, this is just the most basic truth in the hearts of the world, only the bottom of the human heart, and it is something that is born into existence. This reminded Liu Dazhu of the criticism of the old Confucianism by the Heavenly Daoists, saying that Confucianism used the bottom as a cover and the earth as the sky, which was meritorious in the past and established the tradition of the great unification of China, but now the east and the west come and go, the industry and commerce are prosperous, and the manpower is close to the sky, so it is no longer suitable to govern. In the past, Liu Dazhu was still unconvinced, but now that he thinks about it, he is full of loss.

Sanniang looked at Li Shi who was talking eloquently on the side, and felt in a trance that time had returned to more than ten years ago, when she was in Yingde Li Zhuang, she forced Li Shi to ask what heavenly principles she believed in, and Li Xi replied with three beliefs, and the young man's sunny voice at that time was mixed with the calm voice now.

More than ten years have passed, from three beliefs to three heavens and three people, and now it is about the power of heaven, Li Xi has gone from an ethereal half-immortal to today's emperor, regardless of temperament or thoughts, he has firmly stepped on the ground.

Sanniang has no expectations for Li Shi's next words, Li Xi has already finished what she wants to say, she has been doing it for more than ten years, and she also knows that there is a difference between saying and doing, but if you don't even say it, how can you do it.

Wang Shishen vaguely grasped something, felt that there were still great loopholes in the emperor's words, he didn't feel that the emperor was so superficial, there must be a following, plus he was confused in his heart, and mustered up the courage to interject and ask: "What Your Majesty said is indeed reasonable, but in all dynasties, legislation and administration, all of them must take the protection of the people and the interests as the key, Shishen thinks that this is also the rule that His Majesty said." But how has this rule been established for thousands of years? In addition to strict punishment and moral education, the soldiers are cautious and dull, and I don't know what good laws Your Majesty has, so that this rule can be established and will not be changed through the world. ”

This is attacking Li Xian's empty cannon, the rules are not enough on paper, just in the mouth, you have to rely on the law and morality, and the past dynasties have worked hard, but history has proved that even if this rule is established, it is also used to be broken by the emperor, bureaucrats, warlords, mobs and other people. Everyone has no bottom limit, as early as the Spring and Autumn Period, Song Xianggong wanted to keep the bottom limit, and he was scolded as pedantic by the world.

Li Xian secretly said You asked well, I'm worried about how to turn to this level to talk about it.

"These three powers of heaven are related to the interests of the world, and the reason why they can't be kept is because of the harm of profit."

"Wang Shishen, you talk about the harm of the government and the harm of industry and commerce, but you also recognize the benefits of the government and the benefits of industry and commerce. The right of heaven and earth owned by everyone is the private interest of people, the most fundamental private interest, and the industry and commerce create the circulation of commercial goods, create profits through the joint efforts of heaven, earth and people, and the government will help the people, adjudicate disputes, and promote profits and harms, which are all public interests. ”…,

"You should also see that my Yinghua went from Lingnan to Jiangnan, and for more than ten years, I have returned to the Song Dynasty and accepted all the people, what do I rely on? It is by creating this public interest, the broad public interest. Everyone can benefit from this public interest, and this public interest conforms to the general righteousness of China, and people's hearts naturally turn to my Yinghua. Although there is corruption in our Yinghua government and there is violence in industry and commerce, not only are there few victims, but the majority of the victims, and they are more profitable than in the Manchu era. ”

"As you said, the government and industry and commerce are harmful, and the interests are one and the same. If the public interest is great, although the harm is detrimental to the profit, it does not reach the selfish interest of the person, at least not the fundamental private interest. If the public interest is small, the harm will invade the private interest, and even encroach on the fundamental private interest, that is, the life, family wealth, and dignity of the person. ”

Therefore, in addition to using law and virtue to curb its harm, the key is whether a country can create as many public interests as possible. Why do I Yinghua want to chase the South Seas, why do I want to fight with Yangyi, this is for the sake of foreign interests. Why does Yinghua want the government to go to the countryside and prosper industry and commerce, this is also for the sake of internal expansion and public interests. ”

Speaking of this, there was a trace of sadness in Li Xian's tone, in his previous life, the Manchu Qing Dynasty had no righteousness, and it was even more difficult to seek public interests. So much so that in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, China became the nest of the world. The great powers plundered China for their own public interests, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty had no public interests, so they could only press down on everyone's private interests, which was the essence of the Manchu Qing Dynasty becoming a paradise for the great powers. After the rise of the Republic of China, the pattern of global interests has been formed, and it is difficult for China to condense its own public interests, so that there will be a world of warlord disputes.

"For example, roads, in the past, there were only ridge paths, people came and went, and the strong people could go down, and the weak people were pushed off the ridges."

"Now that we want all people to be able to walk on the road, we must not only prohibit the strong from bullying the weak and teach people to stand in line, but also open the way. Only when the road is widened can more people be allowed to follow the path and benefit. ”

Li Xi took the road as an example, which is very vivid, and even ordinary people understand the truth.

But Wang Shishen came up again: "Even if the road is wide, there is a greater difference between the people who come and go." Some are still on foot, some are on horseback, and some are charioteers. At this time, the rider will hit the walker, and the chariot will crowd the rider, so what should I do? ”

Li Xianxin said that you are really a qualified mouthpiece, and said with a smile: "In addition to law and morality, isn't there you?" ”

Wang Shishen was stunned, but listened to Li Shi say again: "You are right, although the government and industry and commerce are constantly expanding their roads, it is inevitable that the strong will be domineering. If there really is a rider who wants to hit a person, and no one is allowed to walk on this road, and it is difficult to correct it, you should stand up and lead the people on foot into a group. Can a rider or a chariot knock off one person, or a hundred or thousand? On this avenue, after all, there are still many pedestrians, and few people riding horses and cars. ”

Wang Shishen was stunned for a moment, and Li Shi was not finished: "But you are leading the people on foot, and you want to stop all the horsemen and chariots, and dominate this road, then don't blame the people for joining forces, and they want to knock you out of the road, so ah......"

"Even if the strong are faster and the weak are slower, as long as this path can accommodate everyone and can follow this path to benefit, why should you abandon this path and set up another way?"

Wang Shishen sighed, he was already convinced, but he still had a question: "But strength and weakness are both self-reliant and innate, and they are even more harmful to others." People's hearts seek justice, the strong are fast, the weak are slow, the strong and the weak are very different, and the weak will be jealous. The weak are the people, and they ask the foundation of the strength of the strong, and there is a dispute on this road, won't they be able to go on anymore? ”

When the blind man entered the Mo family, he was not just emotional, but worried about the disparity between the rich and the poor, and even social turmoil.
