Chapter 733: You Forgot the Roots
"No rules, no rules!" Min Ziqian said.
"It's a generic reference!" The shopkeeper retorted.
"What do you call a generic finger?"
"It's true that there are no rules, but ! This society doesn't need the rules that your husband Confucius said! Don't think that what your husband says and teaches you is the rules of mankind! Wrong! So! What you said is that there are no rules and no circle, it is an application! It's a confusing concept! Got it? ”
"You?"
"You're not convinced, are you? If you don't accept it, I'll interpret it to you! What you say, 'There are no rules, there is no circle', may be able to stump others and make others mistakenly believe that it is the truth! And then! I think that what your husband Kong Qiu has set is the rules and standards of human beings!
In fact! You just mean this in general! You know what? There are no rules, there is no circle, this sentence is true. There are rules for conduct, and all kinds of things have their own rules. But! It's not that it is applied to the theory of your husband Kongqiu, don't think that the set of methods of governing the world that your husband Kongqiu taught you is the rules of human beings! You know what? ”
"You're fucking it!" Min Ziqian shouted angrily: "The Zhou ceremony advocated by my husband Kong Qiu! The Zhou rites have continued for hundreds of years in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Zhou system has continued for hundreds of years in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and there has been a heyday in the Great Zhou Dynasty, which is all history-based! My husband has reorganized the Zhou rites and improved the Zhou system, can you say that my husband's theory is not the standard of human beings? ”
"Min Ziqian! I ask you? How many dynasties have we humans gone through? The shopkeeper asked quietly.
"This?" Min Ziqian didn't find that the shopkeeper was tricking him, thought about it, and said seriously: "According to Mr., there are many dynasties with history. The Zhou Dynasty was preceded by the Shang Dynasty, and the Shang Dynasty was preceded by the Xia Dynasty, and before the Xia Dynasty, I heard that there were three emperors and five emperors, and before the three emperors and five emperors, there was also a knotted rope chronicle......"
The shopkeeper interrupted: "That? Why can't a dynasty survive? ”
"This?"
"That? Why did the Shang Dynasty fall? ”
"This?"
"That? Why can't the Xia Dynasty continue to this day? Why are the Three Emperors and Five Emperors so good that they can't continue their own dynasties? ”
"This?"
"Since you can't answer it, I'll tell you! Why is this happening? ”
"Then you say! Why do it? ”
Min Ziqian found out that he had become the shopkeeper. Therefore! had to restrain his anger and wait for the shopkeeper to speak. And then! Then find the flaws in the shopkeeper's words and refute him.
Confucius sat on the side, and when he saw that Min Ziqian was arguing with the shopkeeper, he stopped talking and drank Song Qing while listening.
According to Lao Tzu's Taoist theory, it is because a dynasty has come to its end, and its set of methods no longer meets the needs of the society at that time. This dynasty was doomed. You know what? It's not a dynasty that must go on, and never change the dynasty, you know?
Say so! You probably don't understand! So! If I say this, it will probably be easy for you to understand! When the system of a dynasty is conducive to the survival of the people, the dynasty can continue to continue. When the system of a dynasty is not conducive to the survival of the people, the dynasty will perish......"
Min Ziqian interrupted: "Today's society! Why is the etiquette broken, my husband said! It's because everyone doesn't obey the weekly etiquette that it has become like this! Everyone doesn't follow the weekly system, and it's become like this! ”
"Then why not break this old pattern and rebuild a new world?" The shopkeeper asked.
"You want to rebel?"
"Rebellion? I don't mean to rebel, do I? Min Ziqian? Do you want to charge me with a crime? Is that what your husband taught you? ”
"Then if you don't rebel, how can you change the dynasty?" Min Ziqian asked rhetorically.
"A change of dynasty does not necessarily require rebellion, sometimes it can be achieved through peaceful evolution! Got it? ”
"You say? How can you achieve the goal? Min Ziqian asked.
"That's it! It's not about changing the system, it's about changing your own ideas! Concept of life! Abbreviation: outlook on life! ”
"Outlook on life? What is outlook on life? ”
"The outlook on life is your view of life, your view of the world, and your view of all things in heaven and earth! Other words! You first have to understand what a human being is. What is Heaven and Earth? What is Society? The formation of society! The formation of the nation! How did the king come about? How did the Son of Heaven come about? Wait a minute!
You and your husband! No! I think it's your gentleman, Kongqiu! Right? Kong Qiu doesn't even know the true origin of people, and he still mixes yarn? Isn't it? I have heard that man comes from the creation of gods, and he also believes that man is from the creation of the gods of heaven and earth.
The ancestors and the world all believed that heaven and earth were gods, and he also thought that heaven and earth were gods, so he should be in awe! The predecessors and the world all thought that after the death of the ancestors, they would enter another world, enter the world of gods, and he also thought that was the case! Isn't it?
What's going on? Who? Isn't it? You don't know the origin of people and everything, are you still a mess? Isn't it? When people say that they want to listen to the words of the Son of Heaven and the King, you talk about the monarch, the ministers, the father, and the son. You don't have a brain! You? ……”
"Then you have a brain, you say? What can be done without kings, ministers, fathers, and sons? In this world, there must be a rule for human society, right? ”
"Rules! What are the rules! I'll tell you!" The shopkeeper continued: "Life is the rule!" It's all about living. Aren't the rules set by your husband Kong Qiu also for the sake of living? Isn't it? Isn't what he wants to save all the people in the world? Why did he want to save the world? Isn't it just for the people in the world to live well? Isn't it the same to live? Isn't it?
But! To your sir! Just go to extremes! You said? Isn't it? He is for the sake of the world! For the sake of peace in the world, in order to facilitate management, I will cater to social management and formulate such a rule for myself! Formulating such a rule and repenting oneself will result in self-suffering!
So! This practice is wrong! Because! It violates the principle of 'life'! Forget about the roots! Life is the foundation of people and all things! Give others a way to live, and the world can be harmonious! And what about Kongqiu? He is self-denial and self-denial, and he suffers himself, it's not that others don't give you a way to live, it's that you yourself cut off your own way of life......"
"You? What are you talking about? My sir, he's not? For the sake of the world? He took the lead? He was wrong when he gave himself to others? Is he doing good deeds and doing good deeds and doing things wrong? Min Ziqian retorted.
