Chapter 30: The Grotesque of Youth
Zhou Budo finally elaborated on his thoughts on the relationship between the monarch and the people, and the more Xun listened, the more familiar he felt - your surname is really Zhou? Really not surnamed Li? Aren't you really from the afterlife?!
Zhou Budo said that the so-called monarch is just a tool used to unify the interests of the people, and the monarch and the people are only "different from top to bottom without distinction between respect and inferiority", which can't help but remind Shixun of two sentences - one is: "The ruler of heaven thought it was the people"; One sentence is: "To the principle of one, the Shu people are not low, the Hou Wang is not high, the Shu people can be said to be noble, and the Hou Wang can be said to be cheap."
Who said these two words? It is the words of Li Zhen and Li Zhuowu, a liberal thinker of the Ming Dynasty. To say that during the Han and Wei dynasties, they had just broken away from the ancient aristocratic society and had not yet been able to enter the medieval bureaucratic society, so the hierarchical order of respect and inferiority was still very strict, and the concept was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The king is the king, and he was sent by God to control the people, so he is naturally nobler than the common people. Mencius's statement that the king is light on the people is actually just saying that the country is composed of the common people, and there can be a country and a people without a king, and there is no country and no king without a people - as far as the country is concerned, the people are many and the monarch is few, so the people are more important than the monarch. It is not a complete denial of the hierarchy of dignity and inferiority, believing that the monarch and the common people can be viewed together in terms of personality.
Even in the medieval bureaucratic society, the inequality between people is not only at the practical level, but also not at the theoretical level.
Of course, Buddhism and Taoism also pay attention to this, but it has more religious significance than social significance, and few monks and Taoists really take the words "all living beings are equal" seriously......
As a result, "Hula" went back more than a thousand years. A seventeen-year-old boy said this. How can you not be surprised? It must be admitted that there is indeed a genius in the existence of zài. And even if you are not a genius, that is, a fool speaks, there are times when there is a certain objective truth, or advanced thinking. The problem is that you are a scholar of this era, if you think about it casually, if you dare to declare it wantonly, you will be jealous of the people of the time, and your eyes will be heretical and rebellious. Even crazy people.
Therefore, Li Zhen was scolded as "non-saint and incapable, dare to disagree", or "it is probably the wrong of people, not the right of people, and the success or failure is just right and wrong, and the academic is really miserable at this point". There are many words that even Shixun doesn't dare to say, so he can only vaguely say - to promote freedom, equality, and fraternity with the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty? Isn't that death? I didn't expect that Zhou Budo this kid could get a glimpse of the true meaning, and I was quite happy that someone finally had something similar to me, "Right and wrong." Hurry up to learn from the teacher.
Zhou Budo is dying, and there is no doubt that his behavior is very unfavorable to class rule. If you make a fortune in a muffled voice, let "the whole world is turbid and I am alone", if you dare to publicize it wantonly, you must be stepped on by others. If he is a real madman or a fool, it doesn't matter, but he has a reputation for being smart when he is young, the smarter he goes, the greater the danger that may be caused to society, it is Xunxin who said that if I were Cao Cao, I would have to send an assassin to slaughter this kid!
Why did Confucius kill Shao Zhengmao? Why did Zichan kill Deng Xi? Even if there is not much information about the world, it is possible to guess that if it is true, it is not because Shao Zhengmao or Deng Xi broke the law, but because the ideas they preached were contrary to Confucius and Zisan, so that the rulers thought that the foundation of the rule would be shaken. If you follow this line of thought to consider the problem, then it is really not surprising that Cao Cao murdered Zhou Budo.
Fortunately, Zhou Budo was young, so Cao Cao only dared to send assassins to assassinate, if he was older and had a little more fame, maybe Cao Cao would follow the precedent of dealing with Kong Rong, and first put a basin on his head before the canonical punishment.
Therefore, Zhou Budo had just finished expounding his concept, and Shi Xun immediately scolded: "This is not my intention." "It's all your own thoughts, don't pull it on me, I can't afford to have narrow shoulders! Then wake up the other party, theory must not go beyond reality, go too far, otherwise it will be like walking too fast, and you will definitely fall on your heels. Zhou Budo is not crazy, not a stalk of the neck said: "It turns out that you have this little knowledge." Instead, he immediately bowed his head and listened.
Shi Xun really doesn't want to accept him as a disciple at this time - if I keep clinging to that set of "heresies", what will I do in the future? But I'm a little hesitant, first, Cao Chong's face is not easy to refute, and second, it's rare to meet a guy whose thinking is ahead of the times, and maybe he can have some common language with me, so it's a bit of a pity to really blast out the door directly.
I couldn't help but turn my head and look at the Ji. When Xiao Yuantu saw Shi Xun's eyes, he immediately bowed slightly, which means: You just accept him.
Is Xun Xin saying that what do you mean? Could it be that you weren't shocked when Zhou Budo said that set of words just now? Or is it just his child's arrogant and foolish words, and he doesn't take it to heart? Therefore, he paid attention to confirmation, but saw that Xiao Ji nodded more than once, and then simply said: "Although what he said is grotesque, it is because of his youth, and it is not easy to think about it......" Even if the child is unreliable, he can think about this kind of problem at a young age, which itself shows that his ability is different - "Why is the lord not taught?" ”
It is Xun Er's roots that are relatively soft, because he knows how much energy he has, so he attaches great importance to the opinions of those wise men who have been famous in history - speaking of Xiao Ji Yuantu, it was also the number one strategist in the Yuan group back then. So he bowed his head slightly and turned to Zhou Budo: "If you want to be taught by me, you have nothing to say." "If you want to be my apprentice, you can also close your mouth and stop talking nonsense.
Zhou Budo was overjoyed, so he wanted to see him as a disciple, but was stopped by Shi Xun. Yes Xun said that I am going to leave Anyi, and you say that you are willing to follow me, then you must first go back and tell your parents and elders, and ask them to send me a letter, so that I can accept you—if you take it directly, and your family sues the official that the child has been abducted, what is the matter? Then he waved his hand, there is no master and apprentice status now, you can sit back to the side first.
Zhou Budo returned to his seat, Shi Xun turned to Cao Chong, and pointed to the era: "Yuan Tu is suitable for Anyi." Families are still on the way. It is inconvenient to return home with me. I want to enter the door of my son. Huh? ”
Cao Chong frowned slightly, and said that Mr. Xiao is willing to assist me, of course it would be great, but ...... I'm just a boy, I haven't been crowned yet, and I don't have a reason to receive customers. Xiao Ji smiled slightly: "King Wei loves his son, and he is expected to be crowned soon." Ji wants to be a friend of the son first, but I don't know if the son is willing to give in? Cao Chong hurriedly surrendered his hand: "Dare to disobey your fate?" ”
Wait until Cao Chong and Zhou Budo are sent away. Shi Xun turned around and asked Xiao Ji, why did you ask me to accept next week? Don't you think his thoughts and words are dangerous? Xiao Ji nodded, leaned closer to Shixun, and said in a low voice: "Therefore, it must not be allowed to be on the side of 'Xianfu'......" This kid is so dangerous, if you let him get by Cao Chong's side, God knows what will happen. I want to assist Cao Chong, arch his superiority, and put such a time bomb next to him, do you think I can rest assured? Let him return home with you. Fuck off.
Shi Xun was stunned when he heard this, and immediately sank his face. Snorted coldly: "Yuan Tu has not left my door, but has already sought for others?" The rest of the life and death are not counted. "You haven't officially left my door, just thinking about Cao Chong, and you want to put me in danger? That's too much.
Xiao Ji laughed and said, "The lord is too worried. He is a brave young man, but he can confuse the boy's ear, and can he confuse the lord? "His dangerous thoughts are also confusing and confusing Cao Chong, a child who is smart but immature in mind, how can it affect you?" I look at his people, he is gifted and intelligent, and although he goes astray, he is not difficult to save. Moreover, he admires the heart of the lord and is pure and sincere, and if he is educated by the lord, it will be of great benefit the next day—if the lord has no intention of sparing his talents, how can he stop his nonsense? "If you don't like this kid very much, and think that he can still be saved, why do you have to teach him to "speak hard, do not do it, say it will be ruined, and if you do it", you will be ruined? Don't push it all on me, I'm just proposing a proposal, and the final idea is up to you.
Shi Xun flicked his sleeves: "Yuantu can rest." Why don't you be a good medicine, and you are willing to poison! ”
He felt more and more that letting Xiao Ji follow Cao Chong might be a very bad move, but the problem was that he had already agreed, and it was inconvenient to talk back, and he was a free man, not his own slave, even if he couldn't ask for his own recommendation, could it be that with his former fame, he would definitely not be able to beat Cao Chong's legs? Why do you have to tear your face with Xiao Yuantu because of something that is difficult to stop?
This person is really not a good medicine, but a poison, and he takes it as a friend, even if he is a strong medicine, it can cure the disease, and if he is an enemy, it seems quite terrible...... Maybe one day this poison will be given to my diet!
Now that the plan has been decided, Shixun hurriedly packed his bags, and set off in just five days and left Anyi. He brought his wife and concubines, daughters, and dozens of guests headed by Guan Jing, nearly 100 servants led by Yuta, and more than 100 subordinates led by Jing Junxiao.
The seven young disciples, including Zhou Budo, also followed. Most of the family members of these disciples are officials and officials in other counties, and they are originally full trust, and it is normal to follow him; Only when Zhou Budo and Xiahou Wei's family were in Anyi, it was Xun who obtained the consent of their family before they were allowed to go together.
But the Guan father and daughter refused to leave. Guan Hai said, I don't have anything to do now, I just want to guard my daughter and grandson, and plant my land well, and I want to cook the fields in the suburbs of Xudu, so you will move to Anyi, how long has it been, and I have to travel far away to plant the soil...... Are you going to tire and hate my old bones? If I don't leave, why do you want to go to Kanto?
Guan Si said that if her father doesn't leave, she won't leave either. Especially when I heard that it was Xun who returned to the east this time, not to go to the Yingling family, but to go to the Cao family in Tanxian County, the Guan family girl was even more reluctant to accompany - even if you also arranged for me to live separately at that time, but if you are not familiar with the place of life, live in the hometown of the eldest woman, how awkward it is! Besides, didn't you promise to come back to Anyi for two years at most? Then I'll wait for you here.
It's Xunxin who said that his wife is really a husband if he has a child...... also planned to take it away, but Guan Si refused to obey. In desperation, he had to leave most of the tribes to guard the Guan family's Zhuangyuan, and he took Cao Miao, Ganyu and the two daughters on the road.
A group of hundreds of people, with more than 40 carts loaded with luggage alone, left Anyi to the south, crossed the Yellow River from Maojin, and then turned eastward, passing through Michi and Xin'an and entering the boundary of Gucheng - this is already the jurisdiction of Henan Yin, Henan is not among the six counties of Wei State, and is theoretically directly governed by the imperial court.
Gu Cheng Chang Jia personally went out of the city to greet him, and reported to him: "Da Yin also passed the book before, Yun is a public but passing, and he will make a banquet." Shi Xun smiled and waved his hand: "I should have visited Duke Wen in person, why should I have a banquet?" (To be continued......)
