Chapter 158: The Great Sage of Peaceful Heaven

"Spell power? Interesting trend of thought, you advocate this, then it is no wonder that the Jade Emperor likes you, I am afraid that there is no king in this world who does not like this doctrine that is specially designed for the monarch and regards the subjects as dogs and horses, but if this way is prosperous, all the people will spurn. ”

Listening to Jiang Shan's narration about the Legalists, Emperor Confucius frowned slightly at first, and then smiled.

"Not necessarily. This law can be said to be specially designed for the monarch, but its original intention is also to make the country rich and the people strong, and the world stable. "Jiang Shan Dao, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the etiquette collapsed, Confucius thought that the etiquette was not good, and if the Zhou etiquette was restored, everyone would be fine if they obeyed the rules, while the Legalists believed that the aristocracy was too powerful, the strength was too strong, and the strength of the king was too poor, so it was necessary to enhance the power of the king.

As for the spurning of all the people, it is better to be a peaceful dog than a person in troubled times, and no matter how bad the peaceful era is, it is better than the troubled times.

In this way, there is some truth. However, the cunning rabbit dies, the lackey cooks, this method flourishes on the top, and weakens itself, advocates this doctrine, is not afraid of death? Emperor Ru smiled.

"The seniors may have misunderstood, I just said that there is such a Legalist doctrine, but I didn't say that I support it. Moreover, Confucianism says that kings and ministers are ministers, fathers and sons, but since ancient and modern times, how many ministers have killed kings? Law is law, and reality is reality. It's just a matter of who means it. Jiang Shan said.

The name is the name, the reality is the actual, the name is the difference between the master and the servant, and the life and death of the servant depends on the master's thoughts.

But in the middle and late Tang Dynasty, the deposition of a group of emperors depended on eunuchs, and several were even killed by eunuchs.

There are also those ministers of the Ming Dynasty who keep talking about the ethics of the program, and their Ming Emperor is easily soluble in water.

"Which one do you support for Confucianism and Taoism?" Emperor Confucius took a fancy to Jiang Shan Dao.

"Kyushu has its own system, and it is a bully and miscellaneous. Whether it is Confucianism or Taoism, whoever is useful, will use which, and where there is fixed support. It's nothing more than adapting to local conditions. Moreover, this is what needs to be considered above, and it has nothing to do with the younger generation, not in their position, not in their politics, is the way of life. Jiang Shan said.

Confucianism and Taoism are clearly divided in doctrine, but in fact, where is the distinction too clear?

Strict and enterprising is the law, inaction is the way, and between the two is Confucianism.

Inner Sage and Outer King, a symbol of Confucianism, but the earliest source is Zhuangzi.

Confucianism has been doing it for 2,000 years, but Legalism has done the same, even more ruthlessly than Confucianism.

It doesn't matter which one you have, if it's useful, you can use it.

If it really doesn't work, he tampered with the words of his ancestors, saying that his ancestors also felt the same way, and if he didn't work anymore, he made up his own ancestors to say this.

"Kyushu has its own system, and it is supposed to be a bully." After hearing this, Emperor Ru's eyes showed a thoughtful look, and he immediately showed a smile and said, "Interesting, I haven't seen you such an interesting junior for a long time." I have also heard about your past, and now among the four continents, the most suitable for you is this Beiju Luzhou, so it is better to stay here, I will promise you the demon holy position. ”

"Huh? Stay here? Then I'm going to kill demons, don't I have to tie my hands and feet? Jiang Shan said.

"Then come back as the Bull Demon King." Emperor Ru's eyes flashed, and he chuckled.

"Then besides, I don't know what my predecessors are going to do with me next?" Jiang Shan Road.

"This time, the Demon Emperor thinks it's a big ceremony, and the Demon King thinks it's a big war, but I only think it's a big mess. You came here to calm the chaos, the chaos in the world, I named you the great sage of Pingtian, and inspected the 18 counties of Qingzhou. "Emperor Ru said.

"The Great Sage of Pingtian?" Jiang Shan was slightly surprised, this is the title in Lao Niu's original book, because Sun Wukong calls himself the Monkey King, and he is unwilling to weaken Sun Wukong, and he is not as young and vigorous as Sun Wukong, so he is a little gentler, so he calls himself the Great Sage of Pingtian, but its actual meaning is also the same as the meaning of the balance.

I never thought that I was born early, and the meaning became the chaos of peace.

"The world is chaotic, and the world is uneven." A cyan token appeared in the hand of the Confucian Emperor, the shape of the token was simple, the front was engraved with a Confucian character, and the back was a strange beast with horns on its back that resembled a fox.

"Most of the people who do this kind of thing will not die well, and the seniors don't want to harm me." Jiang Shan took the token from Emperor Confucian's hand, but said on his face.

"But you are a deacon, you are not a human being, how can you die a good death?" Emperor Ru smiled slightly.

Jiang Shan's face was slightly sluggish, he didn't expect Emperor Confucius to catch this language disease.

"Okay, let's take a break here and get acquainted with the environment." With a wave of his palm, Emperor Confucian immediately drilled out a little Taoist boy in green clothes on the ground, bowing slightly towards Jiang Shan, "Qing bamboo shoots, he will take you to rest." ”

Jiang Shan nodded, and immediately got up and left with the green bamboo shoot boy and went to his residence.

After Jiang Shan left, Emperor Confucius looked at the Jiao Demon King and said, "The Jade Emperor's eyes on people are rare and not wrong. You've got a good big brother. ”

"Big brother is naturally a good big brother, but why did Big Brother Fang say that he killed, so it was not good to stay here? Isn't the demon world just about killing? The Jiao Demon King was puzzled.

"The demon world is chaos, but if there is only chaos, the demon world will be extinguished long ago, and no matter how chaotic it is, once it persists, then there will be order. It's just that the order of the demon world may seem chaotic in the eyes of some people. A demon king who slaughters the demon king of the same level without asking about it, even if he has great magical powers, but he doesn't pay attention to the rules, it is difficult to last in the demon world. Especially in Qingzhou, where it is rare to talk about the rules, only your eldest brother can come, because he is just a passer-by in Beiju Luzhou, and he can kill without thinking about the consequences later. "Emperor Ru said.

"That's why I let Big Brother come over?" Jiao Demon King Road.

"Yes, this is something that only he, an outsider, can do, and if you do it, it is not appropriate. It's just that he never thought about it, he himself saw it, and Confucianism and law are used together, if it weren't for the fact that your eldest brother is really a deer, and the old boy of the Jade Emperor doesn't have the guts, I really suspect that it is the illegitimate son of the old boy of the Jade Emperor, exactly the same cheekiness, exactly the same pursuit of practicality. "Emperor Ru said.

"Big brother is naturally extraordinary." Jiao Demon King Road.

Looking at the proud expression of the Jiao Demon King, the Confucian Emperor sighed slightly and said: "Your eldest brother and the Jade Emperor have the same temper, and you are also quite similar to me, so you should be more careful when getting along with him in the future." ”

"Why is that? Could it be that the Jade Emperor did something to be sorry for his master? The Jiao Demon King wondered.

"There are some things I don't want to tell you, but depending on your eldest brother's temperament, I'll tell you about it." Emperor Confucius sighed faintly, "I was originally a passerby of heaven and earth, and I was free to swim." Although there were often fools who thought that if they rode me, they would be able to live 2,000 years longer and come to arrest me, but the days were also interesting. Until I met that bastard, and after he talked nonsense, I followed him and became a god in heaven. ”

Jiao Demon King's expression moved slightly, why is he so much like the eldest brother and him?

"At that time, at the beginning, I had a long and pleasant time with him. At that time, the two of us, traveling the world, expressing the righteousness in our chests, doing whatever we wanted, enjoying the scene, wanton flowers, so happy. Until one day, Weishi fell in love with a fairy, but he actually secretly went to see the fairy bathing behind his back! Emperor Confucius said slowly.

"A good man, it is shameful to spy on a woman bathing, he actually spies on the person who his brother admires, this Jade Emperor is so shameless, how can he sit on the throne of the Emperor of Heaven?" When the Jiao Demon King heard this, his squinted eyes suddenly widened, and the cold light was cold.

Hearing the words of the Jiao Demon King, the Confucian Emperor's face was slightly embarrassed, like when he was young and ignorant, he peeked at people bathing, he really did it, but the main thing was that the Jade Emperor was shameless, he was taken badly, and continued to tell the story: "Yes, how can this despicable and shameless villain be worthy of being the master of the Three Realms?" So when I got the news, I rushed over in a rage to settle accounts with him. But when I got to that place, I didn't see the bastard of the Jade Emperor, only the appearance of the fairy bathing......"

"Could it be that the Jade Emperor left first? And then what? The Jiao Demon King asked.

"Then, that fairy is now your master. The Jade Emperor didn't go at all that day, he just coaxed me to go and forced me to marry the fairy. I found out afterwards that it was clearly a partnership between the two of them. Emperor Ru sighed with a complicated expression.

"Huh?" The Jiao Demon King was stunned for a moment, he never thought it would be such a turning point, but since this is the case, it doesn't seem to be anything.

Aren't you in love with it? The best of both worlds!

"It's hateful, I had so many red faces back then, Qingqing, Yanyan, Meimei, Ayu...... In the end, because I got married, they all left! I originally had such a big harem, and they were all bastards, so I am now such a big and big harem, gone! Gone! Emperor Confucius gritted his teeth and said, there is no longer a talent to be calm and comfortable.

The Jiao Demon King was dumbfounded when he heard it, it was because of this that your old man and the Jade Emperor cut off their robes and left the heavenly court?

And how many years have passed, do you remember these names so clearly?

In addition, even so, Master, don't you still have a queen and two concubines?

Although it is much worse than the harem of the Poison Emperor Xiangliu tens of thousands next door, it is useless to have more.

"Beware of your eldest brother, I think he has the style of the Jade Emperor, and he is brazen, I'm afraid that he will sell you at some point." Emperor Confucius said earnestly, this disciple, he didn't want to accept it, after all, the Jade Emperor was too unreliable, but after some contact, he found that the Jiao Demon King was too similar to him when he was young, so he was included in the door.

"But I don't have anything to admire, and the woman is okay, when I was in the East China Sea, the snake demon, the clam spirit, the fox girl, and the fish spirit were all meaningless, and if it was broken, it would be broken." Jiao Demon King Road.

Emperor Confucius paused slightly, almost forgetting that his disciple had a huge backyard, and said, "Jun'er, I went to pick up your eldest brother today, is my cultivation delayed?" Now that the demon world is in chaos, you need to hurry up and cultivate, go to the North Hells Cave to cultivate today. ”

The Jiao Demon King was slightly stunned, this Northern Hell Cave is a cave that imitates the North Abyss, and it is extremely cold inside, even if he is a demon saint, he can't stay in it for long, but looking at the expression of the Confucian Emperor, he should be obedient and go down to cultivate.

In this way, the Confucian Emperor picked up the book on the table and watched, the wind blew the bamboo forest, quiet and pleasant, like a hermit in the bamboo.

Just looking at it, Emperor Confucian couldn't help but think of what Jiang Shan had just said, his fingers flicked slightly, a few spiritual lights fell, and his own demons left the demon world and went to Nanzhan Buzhou to understand the doctrine of Legalism.
