Section 1208 Irony
Because it was not a sycophant, Zhu Wen's expression was still as usual, he looked at the ministers and scholars in the audience, and began the second part of his discussion. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I tasted and heard, and I said: things gather by like, and people are divided by groups!" He recounted softly: "Today's downward trend, the trend of name and group, is becoming more and more obvious! ”
"As a scholar, my generation does not dare to ignore it, and regard it as ......"
This is also the largest and most obvious feature of the Confucian students of the Xunzi lineage.
They have never shied away from studying and observing the essence of facts.
When Xunzi entered Qin and went deep into Qin, although the negotiation with King Qin Zhao collapsed, Xunzi still did not shy away from praising the system and system of Qin.
Instead of being like other Confucian scholars, he must be called a violent Qin......
At the same time, the Xunzi school was the only school within Confucianism that focused on sociology.
In other Confucian factions, when they focused on the Mandate of Heaven and the Way of Heaven, Xunzi had already penetrated the surface of the problem and went straight to the real core point.
The concept of fame and group was proposed.
This is the oldest sociology of humanity.
Today's world changes cannot escape the eyes of these scholars who believe in Xunzi's thoughts.
But......
Zhu Wen is not a madman, he only wants to be cool himself, regardless of others.
He knows very well that this problem can only be tasted superficially.
He also understood that his purpose in raising this question was to attract the attention of those in power, especially today, -- that the current social situation is changing faster than you can imagine.
It can even be said to be the most drastic moment of change in the world since the collapse of the Zongzhou ritual system!
The former gave birth to the landlord class and the yeoman peasant class.
Today's social changes are giving rise to another class and group.
Although it is still impossible to see the clues and the whole picture.
However, according to Zhu Wen's observations and estimates, in a maximum of 20 years, it is very likely that in some areas, the industrial and commercial population will catch up with the agricultural population.
This matter must be noticed by the state and those in power as soon as possible!
Otherwise, a disaster is likely to happen!
Liu Che naturally heard the meaning of the other party's words.
"That's right, Xunzi's disciple, it's really amazing!" Liu Che praised in his heart.
However, it is a pity that at least for now, it is impossible for the Xunzi school to become the mainstream, and it is impossible to really affect the national policy.
The reason is simple, the conditions do not allow it!
In today's society, even Mencius cannot become the mainstream.
What's more, Xunzi, who is more radical and advanced than Mencius?
You must know that Mencius is just shouting that the people are noble and the king is light, Xunzi directly pointed out that the people have the right to overthrow tyranny, and called on the people to overthrow tyranny!
As the world is well known - heaven is constant, not for Yao, not for death.
But how many people know that there are more river crab things in Xunzi's thoughts?
For example, 'soup and martial arts, then the world will be governed; If it exists, the world will be chaotic. ’
If Liu Che hadn't been a traverser, I'm afraid he would have severely cracked down on and suppressed this school, so that it wouldn't have any chance of resurrection!
Not to mention, in Xunzi's thoughts, things that are not river crabs abound, Xunzi's thirty-two articles, any one of them is placed in front of any king, it will be unbearable!
From the current point of view, within a hundred years, the Xunzi school wants to turn over.
Unless......
The Han dynasty was able to run into industrialization and complete the accumulation of capitalism......
From here, you know how far ahead of Xunzi's thoughts?
This is the real reason why the Xunzi school, after the death of Xunzi, gradually died out.
It's not his disciples, the disciples don't want to preach.
It is tantamount to death to preach!
They can only compromise and settle for the next best!
That is, now, with the relaxation of the shackles of the Han family's ideological and speech circles, a group of young people who do not know the height of the sky and the height of the earth have gathered together to engage in wind and rain.
Of course, this is also related to Xunzi's own educational strategy and phalanx.
Xunzi himself said: You can't learn. Green is taken from blue, and green is blue.
He taught his disciples, and he didn't want them to blindly follow him.
Instead, I hope that they will come out of the blue and surpass themselves!
This is in line with Xunzi's own thought of the queen of law.
Liu Che also appreciates this.
This world, if not one generation is stronger than the next.
So, what do people live for?
Do we have to pursue degradation?
Three generations of kings and ancestors have overcome obstacles and overcome obstacles, but not for the sake of future generations returning to their world.
On the contrary, the kings and the people of the past would never hope that future generations would return to their time and live their lives.
The evolution of living things is to pass on better genes and better things to future generations.
However, this is precisely the current stubborn disease of Chinese society.
Liu Che didn't have a good way, so he could only slowly change and transform the world by himself.
Therefore, Liu Che knows that after the leaders of this generation of Xunzi School, it is very likely that the Xunzi School will enter an era of green and yellow.
The reason is simple.
The disciples of these people, under the influence of Xunzi's thoughts, will definitely not stick to the rules, just like the members of other factions, follow the teachings of the teachers.
They will go their own way.
Just like Han Feizi, Li Si, Zhang Cang, and Fu Qiubo.
In this respect, Xunzi claims to be a descendant and orthodox of Confucius, and he really doesn't brag.
This ability to teach students according to their aptitude, in the entire Confucian sect, who else except for Confucius?
Thinking of this, Liu Che also sighed.
Academia is like the natural world.
Sometimes, not the best of the strongest survives.
In many cases, it is the most suitable and adaptable environment to be able to survive.
Like in the White Age, what are mammals?
At that time, reptiles had evolved into a large and powerful ecological chain.
But a single meteorite ended the age of dinosaurs and opened the world of mammals to this day.
On stage, Zhu Wen was still narrating the propositions of the Xunzi School.
Of course, it has been specially selected and has avoided many claims of sensitive speech.
But even so, these propositions are very harsh to the ears of the ministers and princes.
Like 'the saints, the accumulation of men' is an absolute rebellious statement!
Many of the princes heard that their eyes were a little red.
Fortunately, Zhu Wen has said a word in these aspects and has not gone deeper.
Otherwise, God knows what arguments and problems will be raised?
In the end, Zhu Wen ended with a classic Xunzi-style speech.
He said: "Etiquette is determined by morality, and the law is determined by points, so the etiquette and the body are practiced, the righteousness and the country are clear, and the noble name can be coerced by the courtesy, the world wishes, it will be forbidden, and the king's work is finished!" ”
However, the irony is that Zhu Wen said so many things earlier, none of which can arouse the approval and liking of the princes.
However, when he talked about the not so good things in Xunzi's thoughts, he got the consent of many ministers and doctors.
This cannot but be said, what a great irony! (To be continued.) )
