Chapter 679: Etiquette and Religious Guidelines
Confucianism has been pushed to the forefront, and it is obviously not an easy task for him Xie Yunxiao to pass this hurdle.
In some ways, Su Ze was not just the mountain owner of Fengyayuan, but the head of Confucianism, who used today's Confucian gatherings to find him Xie Yunxiao and make him tea.
Obviously, this bowl of tea is not so easy to drink, and only Xie Yunxiao is qualified to let Su Ze make tea for it without opening his mouth.
Su Ze can become the mountain master of Fengyayuan, the head of Confucianism, and naturally he will not be an ordinary person.
Xie Yunxiao took the initiative to add charcoal to the fire, which would change the heat, but Su Ze's ability to master the heat was also perfect.
It is no exaggeration to say that Xie Yunxiao's actions basically had no impact on Su Ze.
"Everything in this world, everything and everything, is just a process from death to life, and the changes in between, in the end, it seems that the result has not changed much!" Su Ze said.
"All sentient beings, if you don't embark on the path of cultivation, the way back is just a handful of loess!" Xie Yunxiao said.
Su Ze said: "That's why so many people want to become immortals, the road to immortality is long, immortality is out of reach, after all, the road of no return!" ”
"Things in the world can't be generalized, aren't there also immortals? I heard that in ancient times, there were a lot of true immortals, and even places like Confucianism, which involved the great cause and effect of red dust, didn't there be a few Confucian immortals? Xie Yunxiao said.
Su Ze had a faint smile on his face, nodded, and continued to make tea.
Although this pot of tea is also a good tea, the quality of the tea has not changed because of Xie Yunxiao's actions, but it has changed after all.
In this way, the silent contest between Xie Yunxiao and Su Ze is helpless to no one after all.
Su Ze personally poured tea for Xie Yunxiao, Xie Yunxiao picked up the tea bowl, and the hot tea swirled in the tea bowl, and the steaming water was like a cloud.
The fragrance of tea is pervasive, revealing an inexplicable fresh breath.
Just smelling it can be calming.
Xie Yunxiao couldn't help but secretly admire, the tea-making skills of this Confucian master had already reached the peak.
I used to think that I was 108,000 miles away from it, but now I understand it, how can it be more than 108,000 miles?
At this moment, Xie Yunxiao abandoned all thoughts, put down the mind of the competition, picked up the tea, and drank it gently.
The entrance of the tea is slightly astringent, but the moment it enters the throat, it has a sweet aftertaste.
Although this is just a cup of tea, at this time, Xie Yunxiao drank the taste of sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty, at this moment, Xie Yunxiao recalled the road he had walked.
He found that the road he had traveled had been so long.
However, this is not the end of the story.
The road ahead is longer than the one we have to take now.
Xie Yunxiao nodded, "Good tea!" ”
"Tea is naturally good, I like to make tea, not because it is well cooked!" Su Ze said.
Xie Yunxiao said: "If you like it, you may not do well, but if you don't like it, you will definitely not be able to do the best!" ”
"That sounds like some truth!" Su Ze said.
Xie Yunxiao said: "But in this world, there are many things, all of which make no sense!" ”
"That's why the truth is so critical, so important, isn't it?" Su Zedao.
Xie Yunxiao chuckled, "Could it be that the mountain lord will come here today just to be reasonable?" ”
"If you reason for the sake of reasoning, then it doesn't make sense!"
"It seems that the mountain lord is indeed a reasonable person!"
"The operation of all things always needs a rule, the rule of the operation of all things in heaven and earth, is the way of heaven, all sentient beings, under the way of heaven, as the spirit of all things, we also have our rules!"
"Really? I don't know what the rules are that the mountain lord said? ”
"Etiquette and Etiquette!"
The rules of etiquette and religion are the rules set by Confucianism for the people of the world.
It is precisely because of the etiquette that in ancient times, the emperor walked out of the royal road of the human race, won a way of life for the human race, and established a court to promote the continuous development of the human race.
Setting rules for people all over the world to do all kinds of things is not something you can just do.
In general, it is the operation of the Heavenly Dao.
Personally, the rules set are not recognized by the people of the world, even if they are oppressed and obeyed for a while, they will not last long.
The Confucian etiquette and religious guidelines can be passed down for so many years and can be followed by so many people, which shows that Confucianism is indeed good.
Xie Yunxiao suddenly didn't know what to say, he could only pour himself a bowl of tea, so as to hide his upset and irritability at this time.
The Confucian etiquette program is often not generalized, and changes with the development of the times, at the beginning, rites, refers to the five rites, which are auspicious rites, military rites, and so on.
Later, there were changes, and the relationship between people, as well as the communication in ordinary times, was also included in the ceremony, and the most typical is the so-called Three Principles and Five Constants.
The five constants are benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith, and the three outlines, the relationship between monarchs and ministers, fathers and sons, and husbands and wives.
What Xie Yunxiao wants to spurn the most is the so-called three outlines, the so-called monarch is the minister, the father is the son, and the husband is the wife, which is simply nonsense.
The relationship between each other is originally interacting and communicating with each other, so how can one side be used as an outline?
(
If the king is not a Ming monarch, why should the minister be loyal to the king? If the father is not kind and does not fulfill his father's duties, why should the son be filial? If husband and wife do not respect their wives as husbands, then why should wives respect their husbands?
The relationship between people is mutual.
Maybe a good person may not necessarily have a good reward, but you are not even a good person, how can you ask for good fortune?
Now, the old school of Confucianism still adheres to these cannibalistic rituals and rituals, and tries to continue to dominate the court with them, how can Xie Yunxiao allow it?
Although some of the rules between heaven and earth cannot be changed now, Xie Yunxiao believes that one day they will definitely change.
At that time, there will definitely be new changes in all the rituals and religious programs, and everything will follow the hearts and wishes of the people, and truly achieve what Confucianism advocates, the people are precious, and the monarch is light.
I just don't think Xie Yunxiao knows when this day will come.
As the mountain owner of Fengyayuan and the head of Confucianism, Su Ze has never expressed his position.
But the new school of Confucianism can emerge, and the momentum is gradually huge, without Su Ze's permission, how can there be today?
Gan Tang is a typical representative of the new school, and he is also Su Ze's apprentice, so many problems can also be seen clearly from here.
But now, Su Ze suddenly talked about the etiquette and teaching, and for a while Xie Yunxiao couldn't make up his mind, what was the head of Confucianism thinking.
"It turns out that the etiquette and religion are constant, is it the rule of the mountain master?"
"It's not my rules, it's the rules that have become people's daily routines!"
"Does the mountain lord think these rituals are often reasonable?"
"Something is unreasonable, so there has to be a change! However, etiquette is indispensable! ”
When Xie Yunxiao heard this, he looked at Su Ze, his eyes flashed with respect, and said, "Juniors understand!" ”
At this moment, Xie Yunxiao's self-proclaimed name had changed.
The so-called three guidelines are nonsense, but the five constants are indispensable.
However, in the three outlines, there are necessary existences, such as Mingjun and loyalty, father and son filial piety, husband and wife harmony, and eyebrows.
Most importantly, ethics are essential.
Although Su Ze never expressed his position, he knew that some things in Confucianism needed to be changed.
But the current new school is obviously extremely extreme, the same as the old school.
How to balance is a headache.
Su Ze's game today is not aimed at him Xie Yunxiao and Qin Zheng, but just to find a new way out for Confucianism, and at the same time, he is also looking for him Xie Yunxiao and Qin Zheng.
This is Su Ze's attitude, and it is Su Ze's intention.
Understanding this, how could Xie Yunxiao not respect Su Ze?
Xie Yunxiao picked up the tea and took a sip, the taste of the tea at this time was obviously different from before.
"I talked with the mountain master today, and I benefited a lot!" Xie Yunxiao stood up and saluted.
Su Ze also stood up and returned the salute, "It should be that I want to thank the emperor, and when I talk to the emperor today, I can finally see more clearly about many questions about Confucianism!" ”
Xie Yunxiao smiled indifferently, "So today's meeting is good for you and me!" ”
Su Ze nodded, the two of them got up, walked out of the pavilion, and walked a distance into the depths of the bamboo forest, the wind blew, and the bamboo swayed, making a rattling sound, like the water rushing against the mountain rocks.
"I heard that the emperor has also taken a new path in terms of cultivation?" Su Ze said.
Xie Yunxiao said: "It's not a new road, I'm just standing on the shoulders of my predecessors, walking my way, the so-called realm, the bureau is like we go up the stairs, some people can take several stone ladders at the same time, but some people, one step can only take one stone ladder, if a stone ladder is a realm, then is this reasonable?" ”
"High Theory!" Su Ze's eyes flashed with bright light, and at this moment, the aura on his body suddenly changed, and the aura of Confucian sages had already circulated in his body.
The whole bamboo forest, at this time, seems to be in a sea of light, revealing mystery.
Xie Yunxiao knew that Su Ze was planning to test his cultivation.
At that moment, he didn't seem to know that the entire bamboo forest had changed, and continued to walk forward with Su Ze.
Su Ze's breath seemed to turn this place into a blank sheet of paper.
At this time, Xie Yunxiao's arrangement fell, and he waved ink on this white paper.
Every step that fell, although there was no sound, it was very indifferent, but in the meantime, there was an inexplicable atmosphere.
Every step Xie Yunxiao took would leave traces on the white paper.
After the series of footprints fell, no matter how extraordinary Su Ze's Confucian laws were, they couldn't erase the traces left by Xie Yunxiao.
Continuing to move forward, the scope of the white paper is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more footprints left by Xie Yunxiao.
Su Ze knew that he couldn't win the battle in this regard.
"I am only half a step away from the realm of true immortals, and it is only a matter of time before I become a great Confucian, the laws of Confucianism and immortals have long been understood, but this son is so indifferent, strolling leisurely, his realm, really don't use it!"
Thinking of this, Su Ze's hand behind his back stretched out and gently stroked through the void.
In an instant, the blank paper that belonged to him had changed, there were mountains and rivers on it, insects, fish, birds and beasts, so that the footprints left by Xie Yunxiao were set off insignificant.
