479 What is the Confucian saint

Ling Zhiyun and the others just heard the soldiers of the Heavenly Army talk about relevant things, but they didn't watch or listen. Therefore, when Mao Caigui said this, they didn't know how to argue for a while.

"Reading, who doesn't respect the saint Confucius? But have you seen the temple of Confucius, or the portrait of Confucius, or the reverence for Confucius? Seeing that they didn't speak, Mao Caigui asked one after another proudly.

Ling Zhiyun and others were illiterate, but they also knew that on the first day of school, they were going to bathe and change clothes, worship the saint Confucius, and it was very solemn. From their point of view, they feel even more mysterious and noble about reading and writing. If it is really studious, why is it that only a small percentage of people have been literate since ancient times?

At this time, when I heard Mao Caigui's meaning, I said that the Heavenly Army was not sincere at all, just like a child playing at home, and I wanted everyone to be able to read and write, which was absolutely impossible.

They couldn't refute it, they could only be silent. At this moment, the door was pushed open, and a cold wind suddenly rushed into the room, making the people inside feel excited.

Mao Caigui just said that the others had nothing to say, and he was proud in his heart, as if he had returned to before the invasion of Jianyu. He was high up in the sky, and was about to reprimand the servants in the house. As soon as his mouth opened, his eyes saw that the person who pushed the door in was a soldier named the Heavenly Army, and he immediately froze there and returned to reality.

The door of the Heavenly Army soldiers was not closed, so he stood by the door and looked at Mao Caigui, who had shrunk his head again, and said to him with a hint of disdain: "What is Sage Kong, can he compare to our chief?" ”

These words were like an earth-shattering thunderbolt in the room, making these people become stunned.

What did he say, what was the Sage of Confucius? That's a saint, a saint worshipped by scholars all over the world!

No matter how timid Mao Caigui was, he seemed to have forgotten his fear at this time, and pointed at the soldiers of the Heavenly Army. He stammered, "You...... What do you say, dare ...... Dare to blaspheme the saint Confucius? ”

Whoever dares to blaspheme the Confucian saint is the enemy of the world's scholars. Even if there is a change of dynasty, the status of the Confucian saint will not change. The thieves on this grassland dare to say that Sage Kong is like this, this is ...... This...... It's the other way around!

Mao Caigui thought so and blushed.

"Blasphemy? It can't be talked about. I'm just telling you. Your family's Sage Kong is not popular with us, and none of him can compare to our chief! This soldier named the Heavenly Army said in a small voice, but he said very resolutely.

Ling Zhiyun and the others who were watching were stupid, looking at Mao Caigui, and looking at this person named a soldier of the Heavenly Army. They knew this soldier of the Heavenly Army, and he often came to talk to them, as if he were some kind of revolutionary.

When Mao Caigui arrived at this point, he slowly recovered from the excitement and was already re-aware of his situation. But he didn't see what this soldier named Heavenly Army did to him. Just arguing with words, his heart became a little worried, and he immediately said as a matter of course: "Confucius Sage created Confucianism to teach scholars to understand the truth and know honesty and shame......"

"Humph!" The soldiers of the Heavenly Army snorted, immediately interrupted Mao Caigui's speech, and asked, "You dare to say that those scholars he taught are really reasonable." Shame on you? How did corrupt officials come about? ”

He took a step forward, stared at Mao Caigui and asked, "I'll ask you." Did your Confucian sage create a whole set of writings? The head of my family has! Does your Confucian Sage understand mathematics, physics and chemistry? The head of my family understands! Does your Confucian sage know the art of war? The head of my family has single-handedly established a base area! How many people on the verge of life and death have your Sage Kong saved? The head of my family has already saved tens of thousands of people, and there will be many more in the future. How many people have been taught by your family to read and write? The head of my family will teach all the people of the world, whether rich or poor......"

This person is a soldier of the Heavenly Army or he is not knowledgeable, but he continuously asked Mao Caigui about what he knew, and he couldn't refute it at all.

To really talk about it. Confucius was only one of the hundred schools of thought in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, but his statement was in line with the interests of the rulers, and was finally used by Dong Zhongshu during the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to create a set of exclusive Confucianism, and has been used by the later feudal dynasties. Reign over people's hearts.

As far as Hu Guang is concerned, he came from later generations, has broken away from the shackles of the Confucian family, and has hundreds of years of historical evolution, the integration of Chinese and Western cultures, and the vigorous development of natural science, his knowledge naturally surpasses that of the Confucius family.

In terms of doctrine, Hu Guang also put forward the program of the revolutionary party, and some of his views and arguments were also mixed in the written law. These things are a combination of some views of Confucianism, Legalism, Mohistism, etc., which can be described as a hodgepodge that is not bad.

Or these things are not perfect enough, and they need to be slowly improved by Hu Guang or later generations. But this is nothing, is it true that Confucius was perfect when he first proposed it?

In the eyes of the soldiers of the Heavenly Army, Hu Guang is completely the embodiment of God, omniscient and omniscient. If you take Confucius to press Hu Guang, you are here to spray. If it weren't for the restraint of military discipline, maybe a violent beating would have been inevitable.

Mao Caigui was completely speechless, and the momentum alone forced him to shrink his body and squat on the kang with his head down.

The soldier named Heavenly Army crackled and spoke, and when he saw his cowardice, he ignored him, turned to look at Ling Zhiyun and said, "After you stay for a while, you will know whether what I said is true or false!" At the moment, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you, and I'm about to take the basic exam. Let me tell you, although I have only been studying for a year and a half, my goal is not to pass, but to be good, and that is a lot more than passing. With enough work, you can change your own land. ”

With that, he turned and closed the door and walked away.

After a long time, there was a voice in the quiet room, and Ling Zhiyun asked his companion a little uncertainly: "Is it that everyone can read and write for free, take the exam in a year and a half, and get a land reward for doing well?" ”

His companion nodded, but his face was also incredulous. According to this soldier named the Heavenly Army, this free reading and literacy is really real, and there is also a land reward! What's the matter, study hard!

At this time, in their hearts, they were even more determined to stay in the Heavenly Army. No matter what Mao Caigui says, it will not affect them.

Even if Mao Caigui didn't have an official at home, he would be a little hesitant to stay here and take a look.

One of the parties in their conversation just now, Hu Guang naturally didn't know that such a thing had happened. He is focusing on the affairs of the exam, and every aspect, such as invigilation, grading, etc., has to be questioned to form a system.

In the future exams, he will not spend much energy on it, otherwise no matter how much Hu Guang is, it will not be enough. (To be continued.) )
