It's just that he found the right person, Fang Xin didn't care, and in his heart, a little spiritual light that was invisible to the naked eye fell out of thin air and fell on the top of the girl, this is the coordinates. \\\\

When this was done, Fang Xin immediately relaxed, without the slightest hesitation.

After the lunchtime banquet, Zhang Zhuo invited Fang Xin to enter again, drank tea and said that this Zhang Zhuo was also born as a Jinshi, and he was tireless for decades, and his knowledge was really profound, and Fang Xin was even more backwards, and the subtle righteousness of the sages was like a stream: "Master Zhang, the students think that the foundation of the benevolent rite and the use of the benevolence of the proprietor are the original intention of the sage." ”

"Well, it's good, but it's a bit clumsy, such as on righteousness, it must be the word filial piety, filial piety, which is the foundation of etiquette!" Zhang Zhuo touched his beard and said with a smile: "He is also filial, and those who are good at offending are rare; It is not easy to commit, and those who are good at making trouble are not there. A gentleman is a gentleman, and he is born from the beginning. Filial piety is also the foundation of human beings. ”

"What the sages said is indeed true." Fang Xin listened, smiled indifferently, and did not debate.

This is the embodiment of rites, rites are order, and in a huge empire with underdeveloped transportation and communications, there is simply no way to rule down to the grassroots level.

It is inevitable that the king will not go down to the county, and no organizational system will help until there is a breakthrough in the productive forces.

In the previous life on earth, a certain party once surrounded the cities with the countryside, and even if it was not a matter of greed for heaven, it was also because of the breakthrough in basic transportation and communications. Or it's Zhao Kuo's method, or it's the evolved version of Qin's law.

If it is said that the rule is at the township level, in ancient history, there was only Qin Law, and why Qin Law was despised by the world in previous dynasties is not only the reason for brutality, but it cannot be generalized at all. ****

Early Qin period. The area is only about 300,000 square kilometers before Qin law can rule, and when the Qin State unifies the world, the total area is only 3.5 million square kilometers, but it is no longer possible to maintain this system.

To maintain such a large empire, if you can't do it, you can't do it. It is impossible to maintain the top-down decree alone, and only the rule that the smallest unit (home**) is automatically maintained can be achieved.

The so-called filial piety refers to filial piety and obedience to parents.

The so-called "timid" refers to respecting and obeying one's brother.

These two points maintained the basic order of the entire huge empire, so Confucius attached great importance to filial piety. Take filial piety as the foundation of practicing "benevolence". It is proposed that "three years have not changed the way of the father". Mencius also regarded filial piety as a basic moral norm. The "Book of Filial Piety" in the Qin and Han dynasties further proposed: "Filial piety is the first of a hundred lines." ”

Since ancient times, the law of humanity has been known to be none other than Confucianism, and it is fair to say that the doctrine of monotheism has played the same role, but the difference is that it is the debate between inside and outside.

The so-called internal and external is the maintenance of the doctrine of monotheism, not within the family** and the individual (this function is acquired only by faith and justification in the future). Rather, it was the external factors of priests and priests, which undoubtedly gave rise to a vast organization of faith control and the birth of the Holy See above all nations.

Even if it is not based on any position, just looking at the consumption, we know that the Holy See and the Church are simultaneously achieving the function of social stability. It also occupies one-third of the wealth of society. This cost is very high.

And Confucianism is the key. In Fang Xin's view, it is the maintenance force of spontaneity and automaticity - every family must maintain basic order, every father and grandfather who controls the family and the economy, and every heir of the family likes and maintains "filial piety" very much - maintaining filial piety is equivalent to safeguarding one's own interests, safeguarding one's own interests is equivalent to maintaining the stability of the family, and maintaining the stability of the family is equivalent to maintaining the order of the empire.

This is the society of the agricultural era, especially the huge empire that cannot be directly controlled, history proves that it is the best, most labor-saving and most economical method, "the sky does not give birth to Zhongni, and the eternity is like a long night", this sentence is a little exaggerated, but if it is only "eternal", it should be the same!

Therefore, those who have attached importance to filial piety in the past generations are all those who understand their reasoning.

In later generations, this kind of maintenance of order gradually ossified, and only then did it produce strict rituals and killings, and when the productive forces broke through, it must be emphasized that some people were liberated from their families, clans, and lands to devote themselves to the nascent industry and commerce, and this rigidity became an obstacle.

Benevolence may hurt the ceremony, and the weight of the ceremony will hurt the benevolence - the law of the saint moves with the world, this is really the only way.

It is a pity that on the earth, when the great changes of the three thousand years were in place, countless people did not understand this, and completely abandoned their own order and introduced a foreign order, so that in thirty years, there was no foundation to follow, and there were thousands of sons who worshiped the gods and followed the ten precepts, or great love, from this point of view, it was already a sin.

The law of the saint moves with the world, and there is no attachment and no attachment, and it is a saint who has no self.

Fang Xin naturally would not say filial piety or even loyalty in this era and this world, such as saying at this time, this is not a merit, this is a great sin.

Insight into this principle, casual words, naturally won Zhang Zhuo's praise, from time to time to praise, more and more important in my heart.

Before he knew it, it was already afternoon, and Fang Xin saw that although he was full of interest, he was already old, so he stopped talking and quit. ****

After finding Xia Yubing and further understanding humanity, Fang was confident and sentimental, with a smile on his face, he felt that a foot of white light on his body was clear for half a point, and the world bead on the top was condensed for half a point.

The world talks about the heart, but it is mediocre.

What is the Dao heart, is the way of eternity for the heart, so that it can be eternal, and move with the world, from this point of view, the so-called Dao heart is fascinated by the seven emotions and six desires, not for the end, not for the truth - those who can mess up, not the Tao heart!

"I've already passed the information to the past, and I have a little experience in the method of awakening the third world, but I haven't done it before, so let the empire take her back by itself, presumably they also have their own methods." Riding a donkey and walking on the street, Fang Xin thought: "As for whether to take the test or not, it doesn't matter anymore, if you get it, in this world." It's easier to move around, just to get in touch with people in higher places, but if you can't pass the test, this vast world, can you really be restrained by me? ”

In the summer, the afternoon sun is blazing, and everyone avoids the streets. Walking under the eaves, everyone was sweating, and Fang Xin was alone in the sun, a little bit of daylight, in his eyes, it was like a sea of photons. fell on his body, slowly sucked it, and there was no bead of sweat on his body.

Riding on a donkey, he didn't know anything about the new overseers, but he didn't look at it.

Wait, I know, what is enough!

This is the one who rides on a donkey. Fang Xin's thoughts are surging. Think more deeply about humanity.

Leave aside the changes on earth in previous lives.

The main world of this world has really taken the path of vassals and colonies. *****

Civilization has risen since the Tang Dynasty, large-scale expansion and colonization of foreign countries, Taoism and Confucianism have perfected reforms, improved their cohesion, and invaded Asia and even parts of Europe on a large scale.

Due to the limits of technology and traffic. The central government of the empire could not directly control the Sinicized regions that were thousands of miles away, so it had to establish nobles and vassal states.

In this way, a situation of thousands of flowers blooming and a hundred schools of thought contending was laid, and a strong aristocratic and merchant class was created (distant areas had to use commerce as the road), and when the time was ripe, luck would emerge like stars. Constitutional monarchy. Democratic ideas, noble councils. Hence the birth.

This has proven to be an effective path, but in Fang Xin's eyes, he still feels a little regretful - this is really a half-Chinese and half-Western road.

And now in this kind of world, there is no Southeast Asia and Europe to colonize, so can you regenerate the phoenix?

How can we make the Han civilization glorious for a thousand years, and we must be able to regenerate and evolve ourselves.

A thousand years of advanced historical knowledge on Earth, there are no answers.

The civilization of this main world can only be said to be partially borrowed, and I believe that even if there are countless traversers, if this problem is not solved, it will still be in the vast darkness, and I don't know where the road is.

"Crossing the river by feeling the stones" is also a good policy, but it is a last resort, not the best policy.

On the earth, there are Song Dynasty talking about the economy, and there is Ming talking about the cabinet, all of which are promoted by thousands of people with lofty ideals and the great forces behind history, but none of them have failed. ===

The Song Dynasty had the largest economy in the world, and the world trade was also the first, which was not inferior to that of the British Industrial Revolution.

Feudal civilization and Confucianism have developed to the top, and during the Ming Dynasty, there was even more cabinet politics.

When Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di and other founding monarchs (Zhu Di is also counted to a certain extent), in fact, the scholar class at that time already had a consensus and had already matured, they no longer needed a wise monarch, only a monarch with a plain personality as the representative of the Mandate of Heaven. Frankly, it is better for the emperor to have no opinions, and therefore more representative of the Mandate of Heaven. In the history of the Ming Dynasty, the ninth Hongzhi Emperor was modest and gentle, at the mercy of the ministers, the ministers praised him as a wise monarch, and the famous ministers came out in large numbers, and the court was able to prosper.

The twelfth emperor Longqing Emperor also has this characteristic, so the Ming ministers came out and were full of talents, including Xu Jie, Zhang Juzheng, Gao Gong, Yang Bo, and Tan Lun, Qi Jiguang, and Li Chengliang.

Such an emperor is no longer a disposer of state affairs, but an authoritative symbol of state affairs. The civil officials, who had reached the stage of maturity, had formed a powerful force that forced the emperor to submit to the courtiers.

Later, the Wanli Emperor, who was also a wise king, had to be discouraged and lazy, and did not go to court to show that he had been slacking off for a long time and was engaged in passive confrontation.

This is not a good thing for the king personally, but for history, this is only one step away from a constitutional monarchy.

On the contrary, Emperor Chongzhen did everything personally and diligently, but offended the entire Shilin class, coupled with the collapse of the empire's economy and finances, so that the Ming Dynasty was able to perish - I am not the king of the country, the minister is the minister of the country, this sentence is not wrong, but the world has shifted, and the scholar class that has developed to a mature stage no longer needs the emperor to govern himself.

The Song had a mature economy and politics, but it was not able to do so

There is a mature military and political maturity, but it is lost to money

The Manchu Qing Dynasty, on the other hand, engaged in literary prisons, undermined the intellectual class that had reached a mature stage and was on the verge of becoming a constitutional monarchy, and also destroyed the economic system of the Song Dynasty, which was the wealth of all countries.

How tragic is this?

The Holy Son of Heaven ruled by the arch - this is the constitutional monarchy, and it is also the highest ideal of the scholars.

Unfortunately, Confucianism itself has its own problems, and the problem of Confucianism is not change at all, in fact, Confucianism is very close to humanity.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucius created Confucianism, Mencius and Xunzi inherited and developed Confucianism during the Warring States Period, and in the Western Han Dynasty, since Dong Zhongshu Tianren inducted and said, and "deposed the hundred schools of thought, and respected Confucianism alone", it carried out reforms.

During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Confucianism absorbed the learning of Taoism and Buddhism and carried out a revitalization movement, and in the Tang and Song dynasties, Zhou Dunyi, Zhang Zai, Shao Yong, Cheng Hao, Cheng Yi, Zhu Xi and others founded and perfected science

In the Ming Dynasty, Wang Yangming founded the Yangming School, the master of the study of mind.

It can be said that Confucianism has been innovating from generation to generation, but unfortunately, it has not been deeply targeted at the word "profit".

This is the fundamental defect of Confucianism, and it is precisely because of this defect that no matter how it is studied, it is limited to the "people's hearts and ruling academics" of each era, and does not help to fundamentally promote social progress.

Therefore, most of the existing achievements are limited to the agrarian society suitable for its survival, and once it surpasses the agrarian society, it loses the golden soil for its survival.

One yin and one yang, one sex and one life, one inside and one outside, one thing and one heart, the way of heaven is also!

Confucianism only uses the heart and does not use the object, only uses sex and does not use life, only uses yin and does not use yang, only uses the inside and does not use the outside, so it is not humane and authentic.

Confucius and Mencius pioneered it based on benevolence and courtesy.

Dong Zhongshu said the principle of heaven and man induction.

The righteousness of the heart is not precious enough, but the righteousness of the heart is implied in the Tao.

Yangmingxue is the culmination of the study of the mind, but only **, not the way of all things, and in fact, at this time, the development of this time, the system can be self-consistent, this self-consistency, is the yang way in one breath - the study of the material society of all things, and you can start with "benefit"!

Of course, one yin and one yang are no longer completely Confucian, but are good at humanity and look up to heaven, which has been connected with traditional Taoism.

Heaven and earth are turned into one breath, and the world is yin and yang, yin and yang, and the heart and things are also!

With the heart is good, the so-called nature, and the Tao is converging

With the goodness of things, the so-called benefit, and the Tao is different

Fang Xin never artificially plotted the so-called integration of the three religions and the five religions, but only used his way to know people, and knew people as humane, so that he could see the way of heaven.

Comprehend this, its air is as clear as a promise, the light in the world pearl is like a source, the inside and outside are refreshing, if there is no one next to Fang Xin, take out Xiao Lai, blow on the street, the clear sound is like a dragon's chant, and it can be heard within ten miles.

Life is like seeing it for the first time, and the old way is also clear, and there is nothing left behind. It's time to make great progress, but the so-called cultivation path, the hope of the six levels, is already visible, and the only way to do it is to move forward.

The so-called sword-moving soldiers, the so-called life and death without regrets, it's time to take the position of the emperor.
