Chapter 114: Mo Zhai
The Mo family came to the country of Luo, like an army, with nearly three hundred people, and came to the school palace on a rampage.
Mo Zhai was taken by Luo Huaichen to see Luo Chang, and the rest of the Mo people listened in the school palace.
For the students in the academy, the attire of the ink artist is very strange, and this is not the clothing that a scholar should wear.
A large number of Legalist scholars are outstanding, in fact, Confucian scholars are also in office, the monarch just does not accept the royal way, and Confucian scholars are also proficient in various skills, such as Duanmuzi in the past was very proficient in vertical and horizontal arts, and was known for his sharp words.
The Confucians, who did not know that they were coming for them, began to explain their understanding of the classics according to the normal process.
So the ink scholars kept frowning, and then couldn't stand it, Yang Sheng directly said loudly: "Now there are frequent wars between the kingdoms of heaven and earth, and the poor people don't even have a place to stand.
Instead, you're here to put a lot of emphasis on useless red tape.
When the ancient holy king Dayu ruled the water, he wore straw sandals and wore a robe, and finally became the co-lord of the world.
Death is like an oil lamp going out, so what's the use of even the most complicated funeral?
It is better to leave these goods to the living.
Could it be that Confucian scholars think that people who are extravagant and wasteful should instead rule the world?
Then you should go to a monarch like Ji Xuan, rebuild the wine pond meat forest, and mobilize the whole world to build a high star-picking platform, presumably so that the world can be ruled greatly. ”
All the Confucian scholars were stunned by the sudden speech of these ink scholars, and even those people of the school who usually did not deal with Confucian scholars were also stunned on the spot.
Boy.
Where did this group of people come from, they speak so sharply.
Yang Sheng's map cannon naturally angered the Confucian scholars, and they all shouted loudly: "Rebellious people, report your name." ”
"Yang Sheng!"
His voice was loud, and when the Confucian scholars saw that Yang Sheng's bearing was extraordinary, they guessed Yang Sheng's thoughts, and whispered: "This person should have come to debate with us."
Remember to be careful, all debates will be recorded. ”
At all corners of the palace, there are many women who are silently memorizing here, and others are beginning to record, and the Confucian scholars have been in the palace for hundreds of years, so they naturally know about it.
Although they were wary in their hearts, the Confucian scholars were not afraid, with their backs to the royal tree of Luoguo, and the birth of Confucius, a sage, only Confucianism has the most complete theoretical system.
The debate was almost never lost, and even the Legalists were not opponents of Confucianism in terms of mouth cannons, so the Legalists changed the battlefield, did not fight with Confucianism, and wanted to crush Confucianism with real practical results.
But this time Confucianism made a mistake, and the Mohists had the strongest logic of the era, as well as a stronger debate system, and the Mohists had specialized in this science.
Moreover, Mo Zhai was born in Confucianism, and he is too familiar with the doctrine of Confucianism, and the Mo family specially picks the weakest point of Confucianism to hit, and the place that is most inconsistent with the current reality to break through.
However, one day, the Mo family couldn't even say anything to the Confucian disciples, and if it weren't for the Luoguo Clan's use of theories other than Confucianism to help, these Confucian students would not be able to stay.
For three days in a row, the result was exactly the same, and Confucianism was repeatedly hung up and hammered.
This directly stunned the people of other schools, "Where did these people come from?" He is so talented that it is useless to refute the doctrine of Confucianism. ”
Of course, this is not the real level of Confucianism, the Mohists do not emphasize martial arts and engage in sneak attacks, but the results are shocking.
Yang Sheng's eyes were very calm, and he didn't care about the angry eyes and praise of the people around him, he laughed loudly: "Juzi is right, Confucianism is useless and vulnerable. ”
The Confucian students in the school palace had already calmed down, "Mo Jia Yangsheng, you are indeed a talented person, and your eloquence is unparalleled.
But what Confucianism inherited is the Suwang Dao, and the Ming Gong made the scriptures, could these two saints also make mistakes? ”
Confucian scholars have realized that these self-proclaimed Mohists have a deep understanding of the Confucian classics, so they can always get to the point.
Those key points are all confused and urgently needed to be solved within Confucianism, and now they are raised by the Mohists, so they naturally can't be defeated.
However, Confucianism, who has completed the combing of Taoism, has great confidence in his own theory, Confucianism pays attention to self-denial and retribution, and Confucianism has always believed that his great way is inherited from King Su, and it is normal to have problems with the doctrine, and it is good to correct it.
Yang Sheng naturally knew that these two sages would definitely be brought up by Confucius, especially King Su, who was the sage that Confucius admired the most.
Hearing what the Confucian in front of him said, Yang Sheng immediately sneered: "King Su's avenue? Aren't Confucian scholars so arrogant?
Suwang Avenue embraces all things, is it an inconvenient thing like Confucianism?
King Su talked about filial piety, but never told Ling to mourn for three years, crying day and night, but also to wear linen and filial piety, endure hunger, and wait until the end of the mourning, the human form is almost destroyed, you live in the country of Luo, don't you see that Luohou has never been so filial piety?
King Su attaches great importance to sacrificing and burying ancestors, but King Su first talks about noble life, that is, the living must live well before they can sacrifice their ancestors well.
Is it true that a large amount of possessions are buried underground, and if it is a puppet's house, a funeral will have to exhaust the wealth?
King Su is the first holy person throughout the ages, and the things that accompany the burial are just the gold skull that was offered to King Wu in the past.
Later generations of princes and nobles liked luxury, so the style of thick burial took shape, and it can even be said about King Su.
How ridiculous it is that you have misinterpreted the way of the king and are still complacent here! ”
This word, sentence by sentence, is like a needle pierced in the heart of Confucianism.
What the Mohists most opposed was the complicated rituals and sacrifices of Confucianism, believing that it was a great waste of social resources.
The Zhou rites formulated by King Su were indeed very cumbersome, but that was to establish a new system of Bang Zhou, and there were not many subsequent grand ceremonies.
Here, when the Mo family was rubbing Confucianism to show its fame, Mo Zhai met Luo Chang with Luo Huaichen.
In the Guardhouse.
Looking at the ordinary person in front of me, I suddenly remembered whether the ancestors had the same mood as their current self when they faced Lao Tzu and Confucius.
Mo Zhai raised his eyes and looked up and down in all directions, countless bamboo slips were densely piled up here, and his mood was also very complicated.
Luo Chang had already read Mo Zhai's books, and now he listened to Mo Zhai talk about his doctrines, including the practice of the children of the Mo family.
Listening to this, Luo Chang exclaimed: "Love and non-attack, this is the doctrine of the sages, can anyone not be fascinated by it?"
For hundreds of years, the Luoguo Office may have been so harmonious because of love.
If it can be used among the nations of Zhuxia, the idea of the ancestor King Su hoping for the great harmony of the world can be realized.
How many of the nations of the summer can match the nobility of your character?
The Mo family and ink are all righteous people who should be rewarded heavily, and Lone should call you a son in order to show respect for you. ”
Luo Chang thought from the bottom of his heart that the character of these people in the Mo family was too great, and this kind of extreme altruism could not even be done by the Luo Guo Office.
But there is another meaning implied in these words, for the great harmony of the world, the ancestor King Su can only hope, can you achieve it?
Of course, Mo Zhai could hear the meaning of Luo Chang's words, so he frowned slightly, in fact, he had expected it a long time ago, because Luo Huaichen's attitude was the same.
Luo Chang continued: "Mozi, you want to make the world stable by stopping the war, this is very rare, there is a war between Wei and Qin, and then there will inevitably be a war between Qin and Wei, how do you stop this war?" ”
Mo Zhai said: "The Mo family has enough weapons to defend the city, if the Qin State and the Wei State cannot break through the city with each other, the monarch will think about the gains and losses of the war, and the war will stop." ”
This is indeed true, just like the Qin State, if he could not break through the Hangu Pass, he would not have launched a war against the Wei State.
Luo Chang smiled and said, "Mozi, your idea can only stop the war that suddenly unleashed.
Let me tell you about something that happened in the Chu Kingdom.
In the state of Chu, there was a person who liked to persuade peace, and on this day he saw the two arguing, so he stepped forward to persuade them, and finally the two reconciled.
He was very proud, one day, he met two people who were arguing again, so he learned the attitude of the last time to persuade reconciliation, but he didn't expect to be beaten directly by the two.
Why is this so?
Because the first time the two people just had a slight quarrel because of a misunderstanding, but this time the two were fighting for the ownership of the field.
It is not an important trivial matter to have some quarrels, but the amount of land is a major matter related to the life and death of the two families, so he failed.
If you can get the war to stop, it means that the war is not necessary.
But if one day, the contradictions between the two countries have become so big that they will never die, then what should you do?
In such a world, if you want to realize the ideal of both love and non-attack, it is probably even more difficult than Confucius in the past. ”
Luo Chang only said that he loved and did not attack, because these two items were impossible, and he still hoped to persuade Mo Zhai that there were more things in this world that needed him to do more.
But this is the core of the Mohists, and if these two are lost, what is the difference between the Mohists and those schools that exist for political gain?
Hearing Luo Chang's persuasion, Mo Zhai only said lightly when he heard this, "Bang Zhou's destiny should have landed a long time ago, if it weren't for Luo Guo's strong support, would the Son of Heaven in Wang Ji be able to have the current freedom?"
The successive Luohou are all descendants of King Su, and they must know these truths, but they still know that they can't do it.
Although I am against Confucianism, Confucius was a real sage, and there is a purity in him that ordinary people do not have, and perhaps this is the reason why I used to study Confucianism. ”
Luo Chang admired Mo Zhai more and more, "You are really a sage, you are just a mortal, and you want to change your will." ”
Unexpectedly, Mo Zhai shook his head and said: "The one who can achieve things is the sage, just like King Su, who never fails, never makes mistakes, I hope to be able to find what I want in the storage room." ”
Luo Chang left here, Luo Huaichen walked in, knelt beside Mo Zhai, and the two were silent and did not speak.
……
In the twenty-first year of Yugong, the Duke and Mozi discussed the Tao.
And stop.
Asked: What is the ink man?
Gong said: Ink man, Ming also, saint! - "Luogong Spring and Autumn Festival: Shengxue"
In fact, although the Mohists were the main opposition to Confucianism, the theories of the two schools did not conflict so much.
It's a pity that the demise of the Mo family is too much, but he is destined to perish, so I will save it for him in my book, and I don't know if you can see it, Luo's and the Mo family are very similar.
