"Confucianism admires the four holy kings of Yao, Shun and Yutang, and believes that when they are alive, they are the great harmony of the world. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Yao, the ancient book says that he "does not cut the mouth, does not cut the rafters, eats the food of the squinoa, the soup of quinoa, the fur in the winter, and the kudzu clothes in the summer", that is to say, he lived in a simple house built with untrimmed thatched reeds and unplaned rafters, ate coarse grains, drank wild vegetable soup, wore a deerskin in winter, and wore a coarse linen coat in summer.

But he was very concerned about the people, and some people in the tribe were starving and cold, and he said that he had caused them to starve and cold, and some had sinned and been punished, and he said that it was because he had not disciplined them well, and he came out to take responsibility.

Shun, also known as Youyu, was born in Yaoxu. Legend has it that when he was inspected by Yao before succeeding Yao as the head of the tribal complex, he cultivated the fields in Lishan, fished in Leize, and made pottery in Taocheng by the river. Shun is strict with himself and generous to others.

He was framed several times by his stepmother and half-brother, but it was only thanks to his virtuous wife's clever cunning that he saved the day. But after he was elected chief, he treated his stepmother and younger brother leniently, regardless of his former enemies, so that some of his enemies were moved and devoted to goodness.

Yu took the world as his own responsibility, led the people to control floods, and developed production, which was highly praised. Due to the good governance of Yao, Shun and Yu, the society at that time achieved great development, presenting a peaceful and peaceful scene, "the world is peaceful, and the people are fine"

Tang Yuan was the leader of the Shang tribe in the East. The ancestor deed, once assisted Dayu to control the water, sealed in the commercial land, because he thought it was a family name. Tang Ren Xianchen Yi Yin was the prime minister, entrusted with the national government, took Bo as a base, accumulated strength, and prepared to destroy Xia and replace it. He successively defeated the neighboring Ge State and the Wing Kingdom of Wei and Gu Xia, and finally took advantage of the fact that the last monarch of Xia was desolate and unreasonable, and the internal contradictions of Xia intensified, and defeated the Xia Dynasty and established the Shang Dynasty. During Tong's reign, he promoted good governance, reduced expropriation, encouraged production, pacified the people, and stopped martyrdom to protect the labor force. These measures strengthened the rule of the Shang, and the Qiang tribes in the remote west also came to follow. ”

Situ Xing said in a clear voice, looking at Bao Ya with a yearning look in his eyes, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Sir knows a lot. ”

"No wonder people outside call Mr. Wenqu Xing. ”

Bao Ya noticed Situ Xing'er's gaze, and said with some curtle:

"Bao Ya is just a rough man, he only knows how to cook. What others say, I say. ”

Situ Xing looked at Bao Ya and couldn't help but smile.

"Everyone is in the clouds!"

"Confucianism is thick in the past and thin in the present!"

"Confucianism is extremely conservative, afraid of change and innovation, thick and thin on the present, the so-called "heaven does not change, the Tao does not change", "the law of the ancestors is immutable", "below three generations, how noisy the world is." ”

Bao Ya suddenly froze like a lightning strike, his body froze, and his eyes also revealed a complicated color. After a long time, he sighed faintly.

Although what Situ Xing said may seem to others to be a bit "deviant", if you think about it carefully, you will find that Confucianism does have these problems.

Respect the ancient system!

Respect the ancient law!

Degrade the new dynasty!

Devalue the new law!

In the view of Confucianism, as long as they are alive, the living can never compare with the deceased.

It is also for this reason that there are still many Confucians today who criticize the reform of the Qiandi Pan for violating the laws of their ancestors.

It is said that there were once people who held the sacred position of the ancient saint and petitioned the gods, hoping that the Qiandi Pan could restore the law of the ancestors.

Now that I think about it, isn't it just thick and thin!

"Have you ever heard of the Legalists?"

Situ Xing saw that Bao Ya understood a little, and suddenly asked for no reason.

"The pre-Qin period of Legalism was the first of a hundred schools. Legalist giants Shang Ying, Han Fei, Li Si and others are even more arrogant, mastering the power of the law, vertical and horizontal, and no one can beat it. ”

"It's a pity that with the demise of the pre-Qin dynasty, the Legalists also went into decline. ”

Bao Ya didn't know why Situ suddenly mentioned the Legalists, but he still returned truthfully.

Even after the pre-Qin period, Confucianism has been deliberately downplaying the existence and influence of Legalism.

But the strength of the Legalists and the prosperity of the pre-Qin dynasty are something that no one can question.

And it is far more realistic than the "ancient system" proposed by Confucianism. After all, the strength of the pre-Qin is well documented, and the rule of the ancients exists in an ethereal legend.

Legalists and Confucianists are just the opposite, they are biased towards the present and the past, oppose conservative retro thinking, and advocate resolute reform. Shang Ying clearly put forward the proposition of "lawless in the past, not in the present". Han Fei further developed Shang Ying's proposition, proposing that "time changes and it is not easy to cure chaos", and he caricatured the old-fashioned Confucianism as a stupid person who waits for the rabbit. ”

Situ Xing's eyes were gloomy, looking at the air, and he said in a whispering voice.

Bao Ya stood there in a daze, as if he had an understanding, but as if he had no understanding.

However, he felt that this head of his family was different from ordinary Confucian scholars, what was the difference?

Situ Xing looked at the stunned Bao Ya and couldn't help but smile.

"Bao Ya, tonight to celebrate the arrival of your husband and wife, we have a big dinner, you have to show all your skills!"

The arrival of the Bao Ya couple did save Situ a lot of trouble.

has become the rich man who has come to stretch out his hands to eat and open his mouth again, and he has more time to review his homework.

But there was also an inconvenience, that is, three days later, Situ Xing took out the treasures buried in the back garden by taking advantage of Bao Ya and Xiuniang going to the market to buy ingredients and clothes.

Situ Xing looked at the rusty and locked bronze treasure box in front of him, and his eyes showed a look of expectation.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and he saw a cyan treasure light soaring into the sky, and he also felt the fierceness of the dragon qi and the majesty of the law inside, and there was a trace of indescribable charm.

All of this shows that the items in the bronze treasure box are not simple.

But what exactly?

Situ couldn't guess it for a while.

Fortunately, the bronze lock has become decayed by time.

Situ didn't waste any strength, and broke the bronze lock with exquisite workmanship. Don't care about the rust that comes off, and the smell of decay.

Situ couldn't wait to open the treasure box.

I saw that the inside of the treasure box was covered with thick yellow satin.

Without the restraint of the treasure box, the blazing and domineering dragon qi suddenly burst out. Like a giant dragon, it stretches its body in the air.

Its cold and domineering dragon eyes drooped suddenly, looking at Situ Xing, who looked like an ant, and suddenly let out an angry dragon groan.

"This bronze box contains a royal object. ”

Situ Xing's face suddenly turned pale, and his eyes showed even more horror.
