Chapter 253: All the people benefit, and the Mo family suffers
It's good to have love, not now.
This is already a very heavy criticism.
If the person who said this sentence was not Gu Dan, Yu Lisheng could argue with him for 10,000 words.
But as he was familiar with Moqiu before the establishment of the Mo family, and even watched the Mo family step by step in front of today's Gu Dan, Yu Lisheng opened his mouth several times, but there was no sound at all.
"Love, of course, is the highest vision, and the ink master has indeed achieved this, amazing!"
Gu Dan stretched out his thumb and expressed his appreciation, "But"
A lot of words, after the turn, are the real things to say.
"People are close and estranged, that is, there are a small number of people who can love without equal, and it is almost impossible to promote and implement it, and let the people do it spontaneously, and the difficulty is no different from creating a world of great harmony."
Gu Dan still said.
The core of love is that there is no difference in love, and loving others is like loving yourself.
The highest level of Mohist imagination is that everyone loves both, and everyone loves others as themselves, which is equivalent to countless personalities loving themselves, and how can there be any more disputes in the world?
You love me, I love you, everyone is like a family, it doesn't matter about gender, age, region, country, it seems that you are separating your share, why not gain more?
If everyone can do that, it's truly mutually beneficial.
But unfortunately, it can't be done.
It simply can't be done.
The world is unfair, and there is indeed a gap between people, and we must face this point squarely in order to come up with a solution.
To put it simply: if you are a person in a village, your parents are neighbors for several generations, and when you reach your generation, the river water that has been used in the village will be exhausted, but the time for irrigation will also come, and others will use it to irrigate their own fields, and your family will not be able to use it, and the harvest will not be good, and if the harvest is not good, people will starve to death if the harvest is not good.
What to do at this time?
One and a half, divided evenly?
Someone from both families will starve to death.
Supplying one family with all its might, and dividing the food equally?
It's still the same fate.
There are always people who are going to starve to death.
If we face up to this fact, how should we make a choice?
Draw lots, who draws and who goes directly to die?
Or do you want to go some other way and see who is unlucky?
Impossible.
Love, love.
There has to be a premise.
This premise is that one's own interests are not greatly threatened.
The previous examples are only when life and death are at stake.
There are many situations that are not comparable to life and death, but there is also competition between people all the time, everywhere.
Make a step today, take a step tomorrow, and the family will not be able to sustain it.
It is impossible for everyone to have the consciousness of a Momo, and not everyone can be Moqiu.
The selflessness of the Grand Duke can be regarded as a very high praise, which is enough to see a few doorways.
But why are the selfless and selfless people usually not approachable?
Everyone hates having people go through the back door, but they like to let themselves enjoy the convenience.
This is an indisputable fact.
If you want to be loved by everyone, the first condition is that material resources are absolutely satisfied, and you will never have to face the situation of competition.
But if you can do that, what do you have to do with love?
Gu Dan said that love is good, but not now.
The truth is understood.
But not now, where should the Mo family go?
The ten meanings of the Mohists are: love, non-attack, Shangxian, Shangtong, Tianzhi, Ming ghost, festival funeral, economy, non-life, and non-happiness.
Among them, Tianzhi and Ming Ghost were briefly used by Mo Qiu as the core concepts of the Mo family.
The problem is that these two things are put together, in fact, it is saying that the Mo family has mastered some of the principles of the operation of heaven and earth, and persuaded the world not to ask the immortals to ask, as long as they do their own things and don't do bad things, then the supreme ghosts and gods will naturally be able to understand everything.
How can the real people have the money to ask for immortals?
Not at all!
Love and non-aggression are the core concepts pursued by the Mohists.
If you can't do it with love, where is there still war around you? I don't need it either!
The rest of Shang Xian, Shang Tong, festival funeral, festival use, non-life, non-happiness. These concepts can only be regarded as a means of doing things, and there is no way to use them as the core logic of Mohist operation.
Nowadays, the core logic of the Mo family is hung on the word "love", as long as the love has not been achieved, the Mo family can work infinitely for it.
To say that love is not good, is to say that the Mo family is not good.
If someone else says this kind of thing, it can already be endless.
However, the one who said this was a burden.
Intersect with Inkhill.
Watching the Mo family come step by step.
Ended the attack of the four countries, and the burden of the chaos in this world.
In front of him, the Mo family had no reason to say that what he said was wrong.
The words of love are beautiful, but the difficulty in them is not only based on reason?
Instead of expecting the Mo family and the Mo family to create a world that everyone loves, it is better to expect Gu Dan to directly rise to the top and give the world a peaceful and prosperous world.
Of course, if you can't say that you can't love both, you are by no means saying that the Mo family is useless.
On the contrary, the emergence of the Mo family brought a ray of despair to the people of Dayue, who were once mired in the quagmire, and really greatly improved the atmosphere of the people.
Because of the existence of the Mohists, the people's requirements for morality and morality have been raised a lot, and it is true that a group of heroes have emerged among the people who 'prosper the world and remove the harm of the world', and the ten righteousness of the Mohist family are enshrined as the guideline, and all the people benefit.
However, just when the people were benefiting, the Mo family finally began to face their own setbacks, unsolvable setbacks.
"Lin Fan's death, you must know better than me. What did Lin Fan do wrong? He has contributed to the people and the country, and is worthy of the name of the ink man. Of course, we can say that her wife did not know what to do and was not greedy enough to cause trouble, but why did this happen? β
Gu Dan sighed and said, "The Mo family, it's too harsh!" Not to others, but to yourself, it's too harsh! β
That's right, in addition to love, there is another problem, which is the key factor that led to Lin Fan's death.
The Mo family is too harsh!
How harsh is it?
The national teacher of the Xia Dynasty, the giant of the Mo family, dressed in short brown, stepped on straw sandals - straw sandals are still made by themselves, pursuing 'one day without pretentiousness, one day without eating'!
This is a giant of the Mo family!
The status is placed in the Xia Dynasty, and theoretically it is second only to the existence of the Xia Emperor!
He is like this, what kind of life does the ink man live, so do you still need to think about it?
The Mo scholars endured hardships and stood hard work, were strict with themselves, and regarded the maintenance of justice and morality as an unshirkable responsibility.
So much so that everyone praised that the ink writers "take fur brown as their clothes, take their feet as their clothes, work day and night, and take self-suffering as the extreme", which is a hard life.
The ink can "go to the soup and fight the blade, and die without spinning the heel", which means that he will not turn his heel and retreat until he dies.
More than 20 years ago, the Mo family was like this, and more than 20 years later, the Mo family is still like this!
Gu Dan looked at Yu Lisheng with complicated eyes.
It's not that he didn't do well enough, and it's not that he was unqualified, on the contrary, he did too well, too qualified, and it was probably impossible for him to make more breakthroughs when he was qualified.
In order to maintain the Mo family, Yu Lisheng didn't know how much effort it took to keep the Mo family from deteriorating.
The number of ink scholars has never been large, it's not that no one wants to join, it's just that the requirements for poultry victory are extremely high.
This almost infinite requirement for personal quality is the fundamental reason why the Mo family can maintain its reputation and become more and more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, rather than gnawing at the old book of Moqiu's fame.
If the Mo family really did something wrong, Gu Dan would have stood up and said it a long time ago.
But no.
The Mo family, led by Yu Lisheng, did not make a mistake.
Therefore, it was inconvenient for him to speak.
I could only silently watch the Mo family move forward as always.
It wasn't until the news of Lin Fan's death came, as well as the changes in the Hanging Pot Jishi itself, that Gu Dan was the first to mention this matter.
If the Mo family is unwilling to make changes, there will be many 'Lin Fan' in the future.
Unless all the ink masters do not marry wives and have children, it is impossible to put an end to it.
Countless sugar-coated shells are coming, where can ordinary people withstand it?
You can't put the demands of the inkers on their families as well.
Therefore, Gu Dan will say that the problem does not appear in Yu Lisheng's body, but as early as when Moqiu founded the Mo family, hidden dangers were buried.
"When the Mo family was first founded, the people in Dayue were not able to make a living, and the country would not be a country. In order to promote the atmosphere of the people and show his determination, Moqiu wore the cheapest short brown, the most ordinary straw sandals, as a way to express his determination, and from the beginning to the end, he did not ask all ink masters to do the same.
It's just that Brother Mo has indeed done this, which has attracted ink practitioners to follow suit, and now it has become a tradition, and even a symbol of ink scholars.
But at that time, the four countries were conquering, and the interior of Otsuki was also a mess, and even eating was a problem, and it didn't hurt to have difficult conditions, because it was not easy to have a bite to eat. β
Gu Dan sighed and said, "But this time is different from the past, and the Xia Dynasty is not a big moon. The common people have become rich, but the Mo's requirements for themselves are still so strict as the state religion of the Xia Dynasty, and the Mohists are like this, which will make many people have to be simple. β
For example, Wang Mang, the palace is old and not repaired, and the palace collapses and is placed there.
Of course, this is due to sympathy for the people's power and wealth, but it is absolutely impossible to say that this is without the influence of the Mo family.
The giants of the Mo family are all simple like this, your emperor's three palaces, six courtyards and seventy-two concubines are not enough, the house will be renovated if it is broken, what virtue do you have?
Then the question arises again, the Xia Emperor of the Xia Dynasty, the national teachers of the Xia Dynasty and even the Mo family giants are all simple like this, what face do the officials and hundreds of officials dare to enjoy life?
Gu Dan had seen the appearance of the Xia Dynasty when it held a court meeting.
Let's put it this way, except for Wang Mang, no new clothes can be seen on all the civil and military officials.
Many of them even wore several patches on their official uniforms - they looked really shabby.
But is the Xia Dynasty really that poor?
Those civil and military officials, really can't afford to wear good clothes?
No.
They just don't dare.
The people have clearly prospered, and even Gu Dan can eat fruits imported from other countries in an ordinary farmer's family in Yuzhou.
But when the Xia Dynasty was meeting, that group of people seemed to have just been dug up from the previous era, and one was more embarrassed than the other, otherwise it would not be enough to show that he was a good official.
This is undoubtedly quite a morbid thing, but no one dares to mention it.
When Wang Mang took the throne, he borrowed too much light from the Mo family, so it was impossible for him to point out the hidden dangers of the Mo family, and even have to be obedient to show his benevolence.
"I want you to reconsider these two questions. The times are changing, and the Mohists should also have corresponding changes, and they should not stick to the old ways. Even Brother Mo himself, who has changed the concept of the Mo family and turned into the ten righteousness of the Mo family, in your hands, why can't the Mo family change? β
Eventually, Gu Dan said.
The Mo family is not the enemy of the Xia Dynasty, and he does not want to put any pressure on the Mo family.
On the contrary, what he hopes is that the Mo family can stop being so hard and stop being so themselves.
As a giant of the Mo family, Yu Lisheng is quite capable, as long as he can see through this, he can lead the Mo family to complete the transformation, which is more suitable for the transformation of the Xia Dynasty.
Because of the existence of Moqiu, the Mo family has carried too much moral and moral baggage, and now it has been severely pressed on the Mo family, the Mo family, and even the Xia Dynasty.
Advocating virtue is certainly a good thing, but is it still a good thing to worship for the sake of worshipping?
Hypocritically wearing patched clothes, secretly enjoying the riches and luxuries that dare not be exposed in front of others, is too morbid, I am afraid that it will not suppress the greed in people's hearts.
Sometimes, moral standards cannot be set too high, as high as the sky, but lose human flesh and blood.
Having said so much, Gu Dan actually hopes that the Mo family can have some selfishness, a little personal enjoyment, and stop being so selfless.
This is not only a burden for the Xia Dynasty, but also for the Mo.
Lin Fan didn't have to commit suicide.
His wife, Yu Lisheng, can also be savedβeven if she commits a great crime, she can choose to be exiled for thousands of miles, and she doesn't have to be so simply executed.
Sometimes, being too strict and impersonal can seem a bit hypocritical.
One can't help but wonder if they want to pursue morality, or do they want to become morality itself?
When the sun that feeds all things is too close to the world, the sun of the past shines, and all things germinate, and it will also become a thousand miles of red land, and the flames are majestic.
Faced with Gu Dan's bitter heart, Yu Lisheng was silent for a long time.
Or rather, he barely spoke again.
It wasn't until Gu Dan finished his words that Yu Li Sheng stared into Gu Dan's eyes and said, "What you said is very right. β
"Huh?"
Gu Dan was slightly surprised.
For a long time, Yu Lisheng was not a good talker.
Didn't you think it would be so easy to convince him?
"But"
Who would have thought that Yu Lisheng's voice changed, and he said, "I refuse." β
"As you said, the Mo family has high requirements for the Mo people, but this requirement has never been imposed on others in vain. You said that love is not now, but when will you need this love? β
Yu Lisheng said categorically: "The Mo family has not done anything wrong, and the internal problems will be solved by themselves, why should they change because of the eyes of others?"
Could it be that doing too well is also a kind of fault? β
