Section 1000 Legalists should also adapt to the times
Song Zihou Xu Jiu walked briskly, walked to Chao Cuo, arched his hand, and said: "Song Zihou has seen Ming Gong!" ”
Chao Cuo turned his head and looked at Xu Jiu.
To be honest, three years ago, Chao Cuo didn't even know that there was such a prince as Song Zihou in the Han Empire.
The old Xu family, there are no prominent figures in the ancestors.
The ancestor Hui Hou Xu Zhi followed the grinding Cheng black gangster.
And Cheng Hei is not a great character, his greatest merit is to defend Ao Cang and beat Zang Di.
But what is it?
At the beginning, Gaozu was a great hero, and Cheng Hei's ranking was still behind Lu Matong and other slaves who betrayed their masters.
There are only 1,000 households in the food town.
As for Mo Hou's younger brother, Song Zihui waited for Xu Zhi, and almost fell into Guan Neihou's circle.
At the critical moment, Teng Gongying Yinyi waited for the baby to say good things to Xu Zhi, but he was barely included in the second batch of lists of marquis.
In December of the eighth year of the Han Dynasty, Xu Zhi was named the Marquis of Song in Weiyang Palace.
540 households.
It's a little bit higher than the Hou of Guannai.
Even, the number of households in some Guannei Hou surpassed him.
For decades, the old Xu family has been the invisible people of the Han family's marquis class.
When the alliance of princes and ministers punished Zhu Lu together, the second generation of Song Zihou Xu Budo still played mud in the feudal country of Julu!
When Taizong ascended the throne, he was told: The new monarch is on the throne, hurry up and go to Chang'an to say hello to the new monarch!
As for the contemporary Song Zihou Xu Jiu?
It can be seen from his name that his father's education level is really limited.
So much so that the dignified gentleman, like the common people, took a number as the name.
"Maybe you were born in the ninth or ninth month of the new year?" Many people made fun of Xu Jiu like this.
However, there is no doubt that in the past three years, Xu Jiu's status in the Han Liehou Group has risen like a rocket.
Three years ago, the Son of Heaven Xu Song Zihou entered the dynasty to participate in politics.
Since then, Xu Jiu's name has gone all the way from the bottom of the lieges to the first group.
There are even good deeds in Chang'an City, who compare his name with Taohou Liu She, Fuyang Hou Chen Jia, and Wuyang Hou Fan City, and call him the four major sycophants today!
And Xu Jiu is not only favored in front of the Son of Heaven, but his popularity in the army is also surprisingly good.
In the northern and southern armies, Yulinwei, and Hubenwei, he may not have a strong sense of existence.
But on the side of the Bashang Army and the Thorn Gate Army, and even the Flying Fox Army and the Juzhu Army, Song Zihou Xu Jiu is his father-in-law!
I don't know how many old singles of the Han army are in trouble, because of the appearance of Xu Jiu, he has solved a lifelong event!
Therefore, Chao Cuo did not look down on this rumored 'minister of luck', the 'minister of high media' who was ridiculed by scholars and nobles.
"What is the important matter for you to come here suddenly?" Chao asked in return.
"On the orders of His Majesty, I came to bring a note and a sentence to the Imperial Doctor!" Xu Jiu smiled, then stood up straight, and looked at Chao Cuo seriously: "The Imperial Doctor received the wrong command from the Son of Heaven!" ”
Chao Cuo hurriedly knelt down, bowed three times, and bowed: "The minister is obedient to the holy oracle!" ”
"The imperial historian is wrong, I have edicted the world last year and said: Although Zhou is an old state, his life is renewed, and I present it to Yu Qing today with the truth of this poem and book: Although Shen Han is old, his life is renewed!" Xu Jiu solemnly read out this dictation, and then handed a note to Chao Cuo: "This book written by the Son of Heaven himself, please look at it from the Duke of Ming!" ”
Chao Cuo respectfully took it and opened it to take a look.
A gleam flashed in his eyes.
"But the people of the sky are cloudy, and they live together, and I don't know how to say it! Only the ears of Shun! Chao Cuo pondered three times, and then said to Xu Jiu: "You have worked hard from afar, why don't you have a drink with a certain pair?" ”
Xu Jiu smiled and waved his hand, and said, "Don't dare to have Lao Minggong, a certain person still has the emperor's order, so he won't accompany him!" ”
"The meaning of the Son of Heaven, Ming Gong pondered and pondered ......"
After speaking, Xu Jiu said goodbye.
Chao Cuo hurriedly asked his retainers to see him off.
Sending Xu Jiu away, Chao mistakenly pinched the blank paper, and then recalled the message Xu Jiu brought.
"Although Zhou is an old state, his life is renewed!" Chao Tsub flicked his fingers, of course, he was no stranger to this sentence.
This is the famous elegance in the "Book of Songs". The second sentence of King Wen's Shi.
When today's son ascended to the throne, he picked it up and made it a core of his policies and theories.
This is also good for the Legalists.
It is even better for Confucianism and Mohistism.
It is no exaggeration to say that without this, Confucianism, Famo would not be able to have today's scenery.
The old Huang school may continue to dominate the discourse.
Therefore, this sentence has also been interpreted by the hundreds of schools of thought.
Among them, the arguments interpreted and expounded by Hu Wusheng are now widely accepted by hundreds of schools of thought.
Hu Wusheng added a sentence after this sentence.
Together, it is: the old state of the year, its life is renewed, if it will be endless, and the ancient is new!
But as a doctor of imperial history, Chao Cuo has heard that today, it seems that in private, he commented on Hu Wusheng's exposition of Hu Wusheng to his close ministers.
If Chao Cuo remembers correctly, the Son of Heaven said this at the time: Hu Zi is really a sage, but unfortunately he is too old-fashioned, not as good as Dong Zi!
So, how does Dong Zhongshu interpret it?
Although Zhou is an old state, its life is renewed, although Han is an ancient country, its ambition is open!
Open the sky!
Chao pondered this word.
Look at the words on your hand again.
"But the people of the sky are cloudy, and they live together, and I don't know how to say it! Only the ears of Shun! Chao Cuo smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, this is thinking that I am troublesome!" ”
He looked up, at the notes on the walls, and at the evidence gathered on the desk.
Then, he shook his head.
When the emperor feels that the minister is troublesome, no matter how hard the minister tries, it is useless!
Even the harder you try, the more counterproductive it becomes!
It's just that......
"Although Shen Han is old, his life is renewed!" Chao Cuo suddenly grabbed something.
Then, he walked over to the wall and looked at the notes.
"My Legalist pays attention to the teaching of doing the best of the earth, and strengthens the army with a rich country, since Li Kui, for generations, to assist the king and make the king dominate the world for the purpose!" Chao Cuo muttered to himself for a moment, and then suddenly he realized that if he gave up his preconceptions, he gave up the fear that the whaling industry had brought about the people no longer engaged in farming.
Look at the problem from a different angle.
All of this seems to be different all of a sudden.
"Whaling is different from other businesses!" Chao looked at the notes on the wall, which recorded the number of whale meat that Chen Huan had provided to North Korea, Andong and South Korea in the past two years.
On average, every month, Chen Huan sells a whale to the people of North Korea and Andong at a cheap price.
As a result, many people have plenty of meat.
What's more, Chen Huan used a large amount of oil residue, a by-product of refining oil, as a meal for the workers to eat.
What does this mean?
It shows that if you put aside prejudices, Chen Huan's actions and actions can be regarded as 'teaching to the best of one's strength' in a sense.
Many of the oils and fats he refined were used in the military.
The tendons and skins of the whales he killed could be used as raw materials for bows, arrows, and leather armor.
The remaining whale bones, after being ground into bone meal, can be used as fertilizer.
Thinking of this, Chao Cuo took down the notes on these walls and sorted them out carefully.
"The Son of Heaven is right!" Chao Cuo sighed softly: "I, a legalist, can't stick to the rules, I should keep pace with the times!" ”
"When Shang Jun entered Qin, he first went to the Township Pavilion of Qindi, drank with his father, looked at the scenery of Sanqin, and then the strategy of ploughing and warfare began!"
"Today's Legalist, An Neng lies on the merit book of the sages, does not want to forge ahead, and takes the old as a solid?"
"Legalism, Legalism, Legalism that does not change the law, is it still called Legalism?"
"This change is not only the law of the world, but also all the old rules and systems, which must conform to the changes of the times!"
Thinking of this, Chao Cuo ordered: "Come here, pass the order, and leave for Beijing tomorrow!" ”
"No!" Immediately swayed the bureaucracy to take orders.
Chao Cuo walked out of the gate and looked at the mountains and rivers of North Korea.
"Wu Quilt!" Chao Cuo said softly: "I will still come back, with me and the new Legalist system!" ”
Today's events have made Chao Cuo deeply aware of a crucial issue.
In the current world, Confucianism is changing, Mohism is progressing, and even the dying Huang Laopai is also young and strong who are speaking out, trying to save the world and continue to dominate.
Even the miscellaneous family, which has disappeared for more than 100 years, has also tried to take a new step in this corner of Dongyi.
The Legalists remained in place, immersed in the glory of Shen Han and the light of Li Kui.
How can this work?
Twenty or thirty years later, wouldn't it be possible for everyone to pee on the head of the Legalist?
………………………………
After leaving the Joseon Palace, Xu Jiu got into a carriage and came to a mountainous area north of Pyongyang.
Then, he stepped out of the carriage.
At the foot of the mountain, old friends who had not seen him for many years were all looking at him with smiles.
"Wait!" Wu was the first to greet him and bowed: "We are fortunate not to be dishonored, and now we have taken root in this land of Dongyi in North Korea, and today, under the disciples of our sons, there are thousands of disciples, and the revival of the miscellaneous family is just around the corner!" ”
Xu Jiu was also very happy when he heard this, and he bowed deeply to these people, and said: "I treat the ancestor and thank you!" ”
Back then, Wu was and others drove out of Chang'an.
But five or six people, two cars.
At that time, the miscellaneous family could be said to be in danger.
Even, if you are not careful, you may be cut off, disappear in the long river of history, and be buried by time.
From then on, Lu Zi's learning will always be a swan song!
Xu Jiu looked at Wu Shu and the others, and then looked at the academy called 'Pyongyang Academy' in front of him.
Listen to the recitation of the unmath of the students.
"Etiquette is born of abundance!" Xu Jiu straightened his waist and looked at Wu Shu and the others.
"Theft begins with poverty!" Wu was waiting for the others to answer.
"Our generation is determined to enrich the people!" Everyone patted their chests and swore loudly, and several big hands were tightly clasped together: "Virtuous and foolish in the heart, not in the noble and low, in the belief and deception, not in the intimacy!" ”
After nearly 90 years, the glory of the miscellaneous family is blooming again! (To be continued.) )
