The carriages were speeding on the way to the port, and there were some steam tractors on the way in the same direction as other vehicles, that is, to see the launch of the world's first large warship made entirely of steel, and the carriage had to slow down because the road was a little crowded due to the number of vehicles.

Ding Jianpeng suddenly sighed and said: "Some things are indeed sooner rather than later!" I thought it would be better to get it out after a while, but now it seems that it's not as much fun as having a bike! ”

"You can make it, why not? I'd love to have a bike to work out! Now he is in a high position, and he takes a car and a sedan car wherever he goes, and he has already put fat on his body! Xiao Ming accompanied her, and he sighed together!

The port road became more and more congested as it went to the back, and in the end it was blocked on the road and couldn't move! It seems that something happened in front of them, there was a traffic jam on the road in the twelfth century, which made Xiao Ding and the others sigh for a long time, but after waiting for a long time, the road was still not smooth, which attracted the attention of the two, "Don't have a car accident, right?" ”

Xiao Ming went to Ding Jianpeng's villa this time, he didn't even bring Gu Xiaolu and Guo Shouxin, he just came alone, and now he looked at the huge dock of the shipyard in front of him, but he stopped, and he didn't even report the news, which couldn't help but make him a little anxious, if someone reported the news, the shipyard would definitely send someone to pick him up.

The two of them were extremely depressed when they were blocked in the car, and Xiao Ming said impatiently: "Let's go, let's get out of the car and take a look, what's going on?" Ding Jianpeng said: "Okay, that's what I mean!" ”

The two opened the door and got out of the carriage, and walked forward along the gap in the vehicle, on both sides were some horse-drawn carriages and steam tractors that could not be stopped, because the tractor was a boiler, and now it could not be extinguished, so the temperature in the road was obviously very high, and the driving handle was constantly wiping sweat!

Xiao Ming and Ding Jianpeng continued to squeeze forward along the gap in the road, and at this time, there were more and more people on the street, and many people also abandoned their vehicles and walked forward on foot, less than a few hundred meters away from the shipyard dock, it was already crowded with people, as if they were watching some kind of excitement!

When Xiao Ming and Ding Jianpeng squeezed in front of them, they found that there were several people sitting on the ground, including an old man with a lot of beard, and most of the people standing behind these people were servants and servants of the family, because these people were carrying flags in their hands, Xiao Ming himself looked at those flags, and his nose was crooked!

These flags are written horizontally or vertically, and the words on them are: "Build an iron ship against the sky, and heaven will not tolerate it!" The banner reads: "Tricks and tricks, teach bad people!" There are also "Desireless and Strong!" "Heavenly principles are good, and human desires are evil!" What "save the heavenly reason and destroy human desires!" and so on.

Ding Jianpeng looked at all this in front of him in surprise, turned his head to look at Xiao Mingdao: "Masters of science! Has Taoism developed into a gathering of people to make trouble? ”

Xiao Ming frowned and couldn't help but shake his head at this! Of course, he knew that science began in the Song Dynasty, and was finally cultivated by Zhu Xifa to become a Taoist through the two Song Dynasty, but in the end it became popular in the Ming Dynasty, making it a shackle that imprisoned the mental state of the Chinese, and the most hateful thing is the sentence: "Preserve the heavenly reason and destroy people's desires!" ”

From the very beginning, Taoism regarded itself as the orthodoxy of Confucianism, and the ideas of Confucianism have always been regarded as the orthodoxy of China, so it is natural for Taoism to become the orthodoxy of China. This orthodoxy is maintained by a system of dignified sages drawn up by a Taoist, so this system is sometimes called "Taoism"

The change of the name of science to Taoism refers to the transformation of science from a purely academic school to a political or social party from the ideological field to practical behavior. Guided by the ideas of science, the scholars defended themselves on the one hand, and fought against heresy on the other. Under this colossal and solid guiding principle of Taoism, widows were forced to starve to death and were not allowed to remarry. Music, drama, and painting have all become drugs for bad people's tricks and are gradually despised.

Even in the Tang and Song dynasties of great cultural development, writing poems was a very elegant thing, but from the perspective of Taoism, writing poems is also a degenerate behavior, because if you don't concentrate, you can't do it well, and if you concentrate, you don't have time to think about moral and loyal and patriotic works, such as prose, etc., which are sins at a glance. Only lowly people engage in manual labor, and Taoists ---- the sage system and the quasi-sage system must devote themselves to "governing the country" and "leveling the world" on the basis of morality and morality.

People even have to have a certain posture when walking, and running and hurried steps are frivolous and cheap. Obedience to traditional authority, worship of the ancients, and worship of ancestors are all the noblest good. Any thought of change and resistance is evil and must be ruthlessly restrained when the thought is put together. Any invention is a trick to please villains and women.

In the early stage of the development of Taoism should be the heyday of the Northern Song Dynasty, Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi never thought that the Great Song Dynasty, which was so economically and culturally prosperous, would be wiped out by the barbarian nomads in the north. Years ago began to explore the original reason for this self-inflicted sin.

Taoists believe that there are only two kinds of human beings: "either sages or beasts." This is as harsh as the dichotomy between "gentleman" and "villain". The saint is a coagulant, and its main function is to maintain the stability of the social order, to maintain the established title and the established dignity and humility, so that no changes are made, so as not to disturb the status and dignity. The spirit and form of this moral law is called "etiquette"

The normal operation of etiquette and religion is the principle of heaven and goodness. It is human desire and evil that are trying to change. One must strive to reduce one's own **, and the more one reduces, the closer one gets to the realm of a saint. The most effective way to reduce ** is to think about the morality defined by the saints all the time, and to think about loyalty and patriotism all the time, and there is nothing else to think about except this thought.

The demonstration held outside the dock of the Hangzhou shipyard today is actually a major incident of "strange tricks and tricks" that has been criticized by Taoists over the past few years! In addition, the Mohists have also been repeatedly attacked and abused by Taoists over the years, they believe that it is these people who make people's ** hopeless expansion, thus making those strange and ingenious things popular culprits, they advocate the idea of the unity of heaven and man, rigid and old-fashioned rules, and follow the teachings of the saints is the right way.

"These people are probably Zhu Xi's disciples or Ercheng's students, right?" Ding Jianpeng said.

Xiao Ming naturally has no good feelings for these people in his heart, the closure of the spiritual world of the Chinese for thousands of years, the powdering of power and the infinite worship of power are themselves the biggest dregs of Confucianism, but now that social development has changed rapidly through science and technology, how can there still be a market for Taoism and etiquette?

The crowd surrounded the road chaotically, watching the Taoist gentlemen sitting under the parasol, and discussing their banners, the old men were even more proud, and even ordered their subordinates to pour tea for them, where to twist the beard and drink tea.

The shipyard has prepared a large viewing platform for the launch of the new ship, and now a large number of groups are blocked on the road, so naturally they can't sit idly by, when the people of the shipyard come to see this formation, but all dare not move, although the economy is developed in the south of the Yangtze River, but the cultural atmosphere is higher, and a few old masters sitting there are all famous university scholars, and have a high status in the society!

If you come forward to persuade, who can argue with these Hongru who are full of poetry and books? If you push and shove people away, not only will the servants behind these people not do it, but when the time comes, those white-bearded old men will come again and fall to the ground, and if you don't say anything, your reputation will stink from now on! So although they were anxious and sweaty, they were helpless.

When there was a commotion, suddenly there was a neat running sound from the back of the crowd, and someone shouted loudly: "The official family is doing things, and the idlers are avoiding!" Officials and idlers avoid it! "A group of neatly uniformed people ran over.

Xiao Ming is very familiar with this dress, that style is the military uniform he designed for the Royal Tiger Guards and the Guards, but the clothes of the army are completely red, but the clothes of these people in front of him are dark blue, but the chest is still neatly lined with silver buttons, two cross straps over the shoulder, and there are pendants such as kettles on the waist loops.

Xiao Ming suddenly remembered, this is the royal armed inspection and law enforcement brigade trained by Wu Lan and Li Xianzhong! Now the law enforcement brigade in the Jiangnan area has been formed, and it is fully organized, equipped with rattan cards and water and fire sticks! Since then, the army has officially withdrawn from the work of maintaining law and order, and the matter has been handed over to the law enforcement brigade.

Nowadays, in this kind of **, it is not surprising that the appearance of the law enforcement brigade is not surprising! As soon as the supervision and law enforcement brigade arrived at the scene, they immediately used the water and fire sticks in their hands to drive the crowd to both sides, but did not take action against the Taoist faction that was waving large banners and demonstrating, but separated the onlookers from them.

The young man, who thought he was clearly an officer, walked over, and his men saluted him and reported, "Captain Qiqi has separated the crowd!" ”

The man nodded, looked at the old men who were still sitting on the ground, and he stepped forward to them and said, "All gentlemen are men of good manners, and the knowledge of morality is quickly admirable. ”

The Taoist gentlemen naturally ignored him and still sat still! The officer was quite embarrassed, but he quickly adjusted his mood and said again: "According to the laws and regulations of General Wu Luan's Jingshi and Hangzhou Public Security Road Management, it is illegal for you to do so, and this officer has the right to punish you!" ”

At this time, an old man sitting on the ground said sharply: "We are wise to lead the heavens, it is really the way for the heavens, the world is addicted to selfish desires and do not repent, and we have to greatly appreciate the so-called evil iron ship, so the world should have us sacrifice our lives to wake up for its thunder drums, may I ask what kind of crime should we deserve for this move?" ”

The officer suddenly laughed at him and stepped forward and said: "The road is facing the sky and going to one side, and it is not right to block people's roads, although a few gentlemen insist on their own opinions, they should stand on the side of the road and persuade people to guide, why do they block the road and affect traffic?" I advise you to move to the side of the road and clear the passage of this road, and the people who are blocked behind can also come forward and see your banners, right? ”

What he said was reasonable, giving both the face and the steps of the others, and the old men suddenly lost their minds, they got together to discuss it, and the officer stepped forward again and whispered a few words in front of them, and only then did the old men stand up and retreat to the side of the road with the servants of the family! Seeing this scene, the people immediately burst into cheers.

Xiao Ming also nodded to him secretly, at this time, the shipyard steward standing in the crowd suddenly saw Xiao Ming, and immediately greeted him in surprise, and the people he brought opened up a special passage to invite Xiao Ming to go to the dock to watch the ceremony in person, and the supervision and law enforcement brigade at this time served as a traffic policeman, and was directing traffic, Xiao Ming asked the shipyard steward next to him: "Who is that young officer?" ”

"Master Hui, that is the deputy captain of the Hangcheng Law Enforcement Team who was only transferred last year, named Xin Qiji......!"
