Chapter Ninety-Five: Li Zhuyu (I)
When Confucianism was in charge, he ruled the world with loyalty and filial piety.
After the Daomen replaced Confucianism, although the loyalty and filial piety were overthrown, a suitable replacement was not found, the Daomen is not a legalist, it is not good to rule the world by law, the Daomen talks about the rule of inaction, how can the world be governed by inaction? Therefore, since the rise of the Daomen Zhongxing, many Daomen sages have been committed to solving this problem.
In the end, a consensus was reached within the Daomen, taking the word "morality" in the five thousand words of the Taishang Dao Ancestor, and replacing "loyalty and filial piety" with "morality".
In the Confucian era, people were often labeled as "disloyal and unfilial", and in the Taoist era, they were labeled as "immoral and immoral".
However, this "morality" is not the "morality of benevolence and righteousness" of Confucianism.
Confucianism preaches the outline, which is actually the order of hierarchy, so the king is the minister, the father is the son, and the husband is the wife.
If the Taoist sect wants to oppose Confucianism, it is natural that it can no longer preach the outline, so the Taoist sect emphasizes equality.
Taishang Taoist Ancestor Youyun: "Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are used as dogs." ”
Nanhua Daojun Youyun: "Looking at it with Taoism, there is no value in things." ”
Heaven and earth treat all things equally, and there is no difference between high and low.
Because of this, the Daxuan Imperial Court abolished the lowly and military status, and no longer made specific restrictions on Shinong industry and commerce. Within the Taoist Gate, it was strictly forbidden for Taoist priests to regard the Taoist people as slaves, and the personal dependence of the master-slave relationship was not allowed, and at the same time, the kneeling and prostration, the system of multiple concubines, and so on were abolished.
In the past, children had to kowtow to their parents, kowtow when they saw their bosses, kowtow when they saw their teachers, kowtow to their parents and elders when they met their friends, and even kowtow to each other when they had friends with their peers. Now, it's all saved, just stand and salute. So Qi Niang reprimanded Qi Xuansu, he just stood up and lowered his hand to listen, and in the past, he had to listen on his knees.
Of course, there is no absolute equality in the world, only relative equality, so there is still a grade system within the Daomen, and many new systems can only be implemented in Yujing, and Yujing is still under the influence of Confucianism, and it is still very difficult for the Daomen to completely erase the traces of the Confucianism for thousands of years with two hundred years of reform.
In this way, there are two consequences.
The first consequence is that Confucianism still has great influence, especially after Xuansheng untied Confucianism in order to suppress Buddhism. In terms of the attitude towards Confucianism, there have always been two lines of dispute within Daomen, one is to completely de-Confucianization, and the other is the integration of the three religions, and the two sides are in dispute, which gives Confucianism a certain degree of room to maneuver.
The second consequence, "immorality" is an extremely serious crime within the Daomen, for example, the three-grade Youyi Taoist priest who was demoted because of the abuse of servants, if it is placed outside the Daomen, it is nothing at all, but inside the Daomen, it makes the career of a high-grade Taoist priest cut off. For another example, prostitutes are elegant things for Confucian people, but they are moral problems for Taoist people.
Now Qi Xuansu is about to become a fourth-grade wine priest, no better than the previous nobody, such a fast promotion speed, too dazzling, it will inevitably hinder the eyes of others, or provoke someone without knowing it, especially be careful in this regard. If you are accidentally labeled as "immoral", your future will be ruined.
There is no need for any ingenious tricks for this kind of thing, find a young and beautiful female Taoist priest, have something to do with Qi Xuansu, and then find a pen and write two articles that make people empathize, ignore the facts, make a big fuss about private morality, create public opinion in Yujing, and use public opinion to force decision-making, you can make a promising young handsome man capsize in the gutter, and there will be no return.
Therefore, Zhang Yuelu was aligning Xuan Su'er all the way, nothing more than being careful, careful, and careful.
At this time, the two of them had already boarded the flying boat to return to Yujing, of course, it was not a debriefing, at this time, the Jinque deliberations had not yet ended, and they would be discussed every two days, and it would take at least half a month to have a result.
The two of them are going to transfer from Yujing to the flying boat to Longmen Mansion, because both of them came to Jinling Mansion for official business, so the return flying boat does not have to spend money, just buy a ticket to Longmen Mansion.
This return trip was windless and waveless, and successfully arrived at the port outside Yujing City.
Zhang Yuelu took it home by the way, and Qi Xuansu did not go back, but went to buy a ferry ticket.
Although Zhang Yuelu is not the kind of woman who likes to let men pay, this time it was Zhang Yuelu who accompanied Qi Xuansu to attend the classmate meeting, so Qi Xuansu consciously bought a ticket for two people.
In this way, Qi Xuansu only had the last 100 Taiping money left, he couldn't blame Qi Niang, otherwise Qi Niang would say something about having a daughter-in-law and forgetting her mother, and he couldn't say it to Zhang Yuelu, the case silver in the past few months was still handed over to him by Zhang Yuelu himself, he couldn't explain where the Taiping money went, he could only eat Coptis chinensis dumbly, and he couldn't say if he was bitter.
Qi Xuansu took two tickets, sat on the bench in the waiting area, bored, took out the "Legend of the Ghost Fox" again, and flipped through it casually.
Chapter Title: "Painted Skin"
The story is not complicated, a scholar meets an unidentified beautiful woman, takes her home, and sings every night. Later, a ghost hunter told the scholar that he had encountered a ghost. The scholar was suspicious, and peeked out of the woman's window at night, and saw an ugly and vicious ghost in the room drawing a human skin, and the portrait on the human skin was the woman.
The scholar was frightened and went to the Taoist priest for help, but he was still cut out by the evil ghost. The Taoist priest used a peachwood sword to slash the caracal to a soul, the scholar's wife begged a crazy monk under the guidance of the Taoist priest, the old monk asked his wife to swallow the phlegm he spit out, the scholar's wife did so, returned home and spit the phlegm into the scholar's mouth, and the scholar grew a heart and came back to life.
Qi Xuansu subconsciously touched his chest, not to mention anything else, he also changed his heart. And this story is undoubtedly a warning to men not to be deceived by beauty, so as not to be victimized by evil spirits in human skin.
At this moment, a woman walked towards Qi Xuansu. does not wear a middle coat, only the main waist, covered with a gown, revealing a piece of white greasy on the chest, quite a grand legacy.
Although it is summer now, the top of Kunlun is still cold, and the woman is undoubtedly extremely eye-catching when she is dressed like this, which attracts the attention of many passers-by.
The woman looked around and walked straight towards Qi Xuansu, and then sat at the other end of the bench where Qi Xuansu was.
Qi Xuansu, who had just been mentioned by Zhang Yuelu's ear, looked at the dazzling word "painted skin" again, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
It can't be such a coincidence, right?
Qi Xuansu closed the "Legend of the Ghost Fox" in his hand and wanted to leave.
The woman lightly lifted her lips: "I have heard the name of the head of Qi for a long time, but when I saw it today, it was really extraordinary." ”
Qi Xuansu stopped moving, and then looked at the woman carefully, about twenty-five or sixteen years old, with a melon seed face, red phoenix eyes, willow eyebrows, and a very tall figure, a few points better than Zhang Yuelu.
Seeing Qi Xuansu coming, the woman reached out and stroked the black hair on her sideburns, revealing a snowy wrist with a red rope tied to it.
"I haven't consulted." Qi Xuansu said cautiously.
The woman grinned: "Beichen Hall, Li Zhuyu." ”
Qi Xuansu asked, "Is Zunjia a member of the Li family?" ”
"Yes, but it's just a bearer daughter, so it's not in order." Li Zhuyu said.
Qi Xuansu has long heard of the large number of righteous sons and daughters of the Li family, generally speaking, the more important righteous sons and daughters will still be in order, such as Li Minghuang, who abandoned Zhang Yuyue, although he was born as a righteous son, but he got a seniority model. Another example is Li Qingnu, although he is a generation of the word "life", but it cannot be compared with Li Minghuang, so there is no generation model in the name.
Qi Xuansu was secretly surprised in his heart, Beichen Hall was so well-informed that he returned to Yujing on the front foot, and they knew about it on the back foot, which was worthy of the third hall.
However, Qi Xuansu's face was not obvious, and he asked again: "I don't know what Miss Li has to do?" ”
Li Zhuyu's eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and he replied: "In Beichen Hall, the file of Chief Qi was originally only one page, which was no different from the file in Tiangang Hall, it was nothing more than the birth of the Bingzi Year A Branch of the Vientiane Dao Palace, and the master died, but now it has been compiled into a three-inch thick book, especially the fact that the head of Qi is not dead, it is even more curious." ”
Qi Xuansu's heart had already risen.
His experience is indeed a bit outrageous, Zhang Yuelu is not unable to see the strange, but she chose to believe Qi Xuansu, but the people of the Li family will not be polite to Qi Xuansu, even if Qi Xuansu is fine, they all have to make some articles, not to mention that Qi Xuansu's foundation is not clean.
