Chapter 15 Confucian can hold the boat in his belly, and I will run a horse in front of my forehead
"Love", "Non-attack", "Shangxian", "Shangtong", "Tianzhi", "Ming Ghost", "Non-life", "Non-music", "Festival Funeral", "Saving Use".
The ancestors' teachings are really good, every time he thinks of the holy words and sages in these books, Mo Sheng will be full of emotion, and he will begin to recite silently in his heart:
"The matter of the ancient saint king", "The lower plain examines the reality of the people's ears and eyes", "Abolish the criminal government, and look at the interests of the people of the country"
Although he didn't understand everything at first, his master taught him that he didn't have to read all the books, didn't have to understand everything, and didn't have to be right about everything. Many people have worked hard all their lives and read countless books, but in the end, they don't know how to learn, but most of the truth is not clear, and they are even more confused. There is never a shortage of people who have done bad things with good intentions, and there are even some books that they have read a lot, and their titles are as high as doctors, but they are not even a "person" when they talk and do things. Therefore, in life, there is no need to be too persistent, although we are Momen, but it is not impossible to learn some Taoist "non-action".
At the beginning, when he listened to Shizun talk about this paragraph, Mo Sheng was still extremely shocked, after all, he was a descendant of Momen, and he paid attention to dialectical materialism, rigorous and rigid, one is one and two is two, black and white are clear and wrong. Unlike those Confucian scholars, as soon as Confucius died, Confucianism began to be in turmoil, the sages were unknown, and the morals were inconsistent. The same moral word, the same person's attitude, came here and there. These corrupt Confucians did not directly deny the law of moral etiquette, but proceeded from the content of the verbal and written criticism itself, and they relied on a few words to show off the words, turning the sharp Confucian etiquette into a moral personal profit. Because there are gaps to drill and it is profitable, one person raises his arms, and the literati class rises up in a hurry. One person has one righteousness, ten people have ten righteousness, a hundred people have a hundred righteousness, and a thousand people give birth to a thousand righteousness. The essence of Confucianism was played by these unscrupulous descendants into Gongsun Long's "white horse and not horse", forcing the old Confucius who saw the way of heaven to be disgraced and heartbroken.
They Mohist scholars believe that it is this useless sophistry that has caused the ideological confusion of Confucianism in the future, and that those who claim to be Confucian orthodox have learned the tricks of famous scholars, and they have the obligation to crusade against and punish these corrupt Confucians who use the rhetoric of "pouring danger and circumventing danger" to seek personal gain. There are even more wonderful Confucian students, read some of the words of the sages, and seek an emperor to send, then raise their arms and shout full of dung, they say that the poor peasants only know how to use brute force, do not know how to use brain power, and have no contribution to the country's economy! The peasants sweat hard because of laziness and stupidity, these people contribute nothing to the country! In the face of such a poisonous Confucian surnamed Wang, Mo Sheng just wanted to say a word back,
Such words, let alone being a Confucian official, do not even have the qualifications to be a "person"!
Confucius said: "No intention, no necessity, no solidity, no self", but those rotten Confucians have long forgotten all the four absolutes of their ancestors.
In the view of the Mohists, today, when the emperor's order is taken as the standard, the ideology and caliber are unified, and the spread of etiquette and happiness is prevented, and then the actual decree that is in line with the benefit of the country and the people is formulated, which is the fundamental policy of the country. However, those corrupt Confucians only know how to quarrel and pick words, sell culture, expand their own influence, and those who are full of words are also boastful and do not do their business, and some even fan the flames and advocate the abolition of their own foundation and sharp weapons, so as to gain the trust and courtesy of the enemy. Stupid or not? To say that social development still depends on their Momen, everyone is equal and mutually beneficial, so that the essence of things discovered by those scholars in the inner door can be understood.
Carry forward the Mohist doctrine and enlighten the people. These people outside the door are responsible for the attack and defense of the organs, hoeing the strong and helping the weak, and helping people to be peaceful.
The young Mo Sheng thinks that the specious attitude of the master is not right, this is not the correct inheritance of the Mo family, it is against the ancestral teachings, and it is following in the footsteps of those corrupt Confucians! But in the following decades, Mo Sheng went incognito, walked in this world, and saw all kinds of life, rich and poor, birth, old age, sickness and death, wife separation, family ruin, glory and dreams, all of which passed by, and gradually understood the truth of the master.
What kind of ending is worthy of this life of exile!
It's okay to get by and get by, overkill correction is too much, and it's okay if you put your heart into it!
Coming to Suiyang City, Mo Sheng also hopes to devote his strength to protect thousands of living beings in Suiyang. The rebels are rampant, and there is no possibility of persuasion, so he can only do his old job and come to Suiyang to help defend the city.
The inheritance of the Mo family, knowing righteousness is not attacking!
Let me shout again for the ancestor Mo Zhai today!
In Mo Sheng's heart, Xu Yuan is quite a gentleman. Xu Yuanzu is Nanyang Xu's family, the ancestors of the past dynasties are all talented scholars, the ministers of the country, Gaozu Xu Jingzong is the old prime minister who was given the name "Gong" by Gaozong, a very human minister, and the scenery is infinite. His father is also a big man from the official to the right Yulin general, Xu Yuan has a rigorous style from a small age, full of poetry and books, twenty-nine years of Kaiyuan, thirty-one years old will enter the Shi and the first, after the rebellion of the thief, Xu Yuan is in danger to accept the position of Suiyang Taishou, and was entrusted with a heavy task by the new emperor Li Heng, and handed over the strategic place of Suiyang to his hands, hoping that he can continue the family style, take care of the kindness of the Li family, and guard the country for the emperor. Since Xu Yuan himself was appointed, he has made every effort to take precautions, he has ignored the inheritance of the family business accumulated by his ancestors for more than ten generations, and even sold his ancestral property, spread his private wealth, recruited troops, and made a loser who was made fun of by everyone. But Xu Yuan ignored these sour words, and only thought about living up to the emperor's trust and being a conscientious old scalper like Gaozu.
The momentum of the anti-thieves is like a wasteland encountering a strong wind, the raging war is burning more and more, and he is about to reach the city of Suiyang in Xu Yuan, he has been ordering people to inquire about the information of the counties and counties in the world, and get to know and contact those who resist the righteousness, among which Zhang Xun, the county commander of Yongqiu County, is upright, stubborn, and has ravines in his chest, and he is hard in Yongqiu Ningling and other places
The anti-rebel army also achieved outstanding results, in order to maximize the protection of Suiyang City, he sent people to exchange letters with Zhang Xun early to discuss some plans for joining forces. What's even more rare is that after Zhang Xun's people arrived in Suiyang, Xu Yuan handed over Suiyang's Taishou Fu Order to Zhang Xun in front of dozens of civil and military officials. More than ten generations have worked hard to build a political foundation, and the power of life and death of more than 100,000 people has been handed over to a small character who has never even met in person, how stupid people must be to do this.
Xu Yuan is also a person, after a famous family, and he is a genuine royal magnate, not to mention those gentlemen who are good at enjoying the shade under the big tree. He is an official from the fourth grade, one side is too guarded, and the vermilion official robe is added, what a status and respect. Zhang Xunqi is just rumored to be born as a Jinshi, quite strategic, a small county order of less than seven grades, wearing shabby green clothes, how can He De cross nine levels and be respected as the leader by a party leader. But Xu Yuan had a resolute attitude, he resisted the public opinion and insisted on his opinion, and the people below were in awe of Zhang Xun's strong power, but it was inevitable that he was full of hostility and slander towards this new county commander.
When Mo Sheng came, just after the New Year, Zhang Xun had not yet arrived in Suiyang, although Xu Yuan did not know the true details of Mo Sheng, but he still treated him with courtesy, did not despise him, and would personally visit him, ask him about his food and clothing, and ask for some strategies for defending the city. After several conversations and temptations, Xu Yuan also knew something about this mysterious Momen disciple, and the wisdom that seeped out from the other party's speech and demeanor should not seem to be fake, maybe it was really the descendant of the Mo family, Xu Yuan made up his mind, and when Zhang Xun arrived, he must recommend Mo Sheng to Zhang Xun.
Mo Sheng was very hostile to Zhang Xun at first.
On the one hand, there is the struggle of schools in the bones. He is a Mo scholar, and his background is even more noble, he is a descendant of Mo Zhai's lineage, and his ancestral surname is a noble "son". The ancestor Mo Zhai founded the school, and their descendants took "Zi" as their surname and the word "Mo" as their name, which was passed on to his generation and was given the name Sheng. Because the ancestors founded the "Mohist Doctrine", the influence was unprecedented, and he learned the "Dao" lineage, although he studied Confucianism, but Mozi felt that those Confucian scholars did not do their jobs properly, and only played lip service, so they set up a new school, and protested against the "Confucianism" that was also in full swing at that time. Hundreds of schools, either ink or Confucianism, what a scenery. The two disciples are also erudite and talented, and they have each other's merits, but later, Confucius died, and his ancestors were gone, and the people below began to fight, they all took "scholar orthodoxy" as the rhetoric, for a time-for-tat, in full swing, you hold the "Analects" and I read the "Book of Ink", I laugh at you Confucius The pot stove is not black, you scold me Mozi bench is not warm, the two sides quote the classics, the meat words are more and more outrageous, but there are few people who really do learning.
The Mo family sect is unfortunate, but after the death of the ancestors, soon a Mo is divided into three families, the ink of the Xiangli clan, the ink of the Deng Ling clan, and the ink of the Xiangfu clan, each of which boasts of orthodoxy, not to mention inheriting and carrying forward the Mojia doctrine. Of course, it is not his ink study that is played bad by the descendants of later generations, those rotten Confucians who shout "Heaven and Earth Monarch Teacher" every day are also insulting their ancestors, and they do not engage in good Confucianism, and they have also become Confucianism, deceiving and fooling the people all day long. But it's worse than miserable, their Mo family is not the most, the hundred schools of thought at that time are contending, and now, eight or nine out of ten inheritances have been broken, and even the "Taoism" of the ancestor of ten thousand learning has been sorted out of countless sect branches, thinking of this, when the ancestor of Mo Zhai sees the way of heaven, he will not be too embarrassed.
But the angry thing is that although most of those rotten Confucians talk exaggeratedly, but later generations also produced a few real scholars, a Mencius and a Xunzi, all of whom are great true Confucians, but when it came to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the surname Dong was ruthless, and a "deposing a hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism" actually forced them to a dead end. They are descendants, the ancestral foundation can not be broken, so they have to hide it, no longer earn those false names, let alone fight with Confucianism so far, it is already lucky to be able to continue, it is not like those lost other doctrines, if it is not included in the "Daozang" by the big brother Taoist, I am afraid that it will become a rootless grass and a lonely ghost.
Although it is a long time, the hostility towards Confucianism in the bones of their Mo disciples has not been let go, after all, in the eyes of their Mo people, if it weren't for these bad blanks of Confucianism, they would not be so miserable. At present, although Zhang Xun has a good reputation and is a good scholar, after all, he is from Confucianism, and he is afraid that he will not be too friendly to him, the "old enemy of the Mo family".
In addition to the difference in the knowledge portal, the more important point is that although Zhang Xun has some ability, why was he regarded by Xu Yuan as the head of the horse and led the three armies? Why is he? Although Xu Yuan is also a Confucian student, he is from a scholar family, and his family is knowledgeable, and he is courteous to himself these days, humble and respectful, and has the grace of knowing him, so gentlemanly, Mo Sheng naturally respects him very much. As for that Zhang Xun, he fought for power and profit as soon as he came, and he really had the face of a Confucian villain.
Since he knew that Zhang Xun was coming, Mo Sheng's heart has never stopped fighting, he is afraid of being humiliated by this Confucian student, but he can't lose the faith of the Mo family, and he is even more reluctant to give up the innocent people in his ancestral land. Later, he also figured out that this ancient city of Suiyang is the ancestral land of their Mo family, and the ancestor Mo Zhai is from this Suiyang, so this time the world is in turmoil, and the clan discussed and sent him to stick here, first, to comfort the ancestors, and secondly, to keep the people safe, and not to let the title of the ancestor "civilian saint" be humiliated. It's just that if that hateful Zhang Xun is really embarrassed, why not suffer from him for the sake of the people, anyway, he was ready to sacrifice his life before he came, not to mention these painless wretches.
I don't want my life, and I want a false name.
"Zhang Xun is a true Confucian, I am thirty miles worse than him!"
These are the heartfelt words of Mo Sheng later. On the first day when Zhang Xun came to Suiyang, Xu Yuan led the crowd out of the city to greet him, and at the gate of the city, he handed over the sigil token of Suiyang City to the outsiders who had not yet entered the city. At the reception dinner afterwards, Zhang Xuntang sat on the main seat unceremoniously, with a posture of being the master of the house, not to mention Mo Sheng, an outsider, Xu Yuan's cronies under Xu Yuan's account were even more furious. The civilian official's words were fierce, and the military general almost flipped the table on the spot, but Xu Yuan scolded loudly, and even removed a few generals who left the table in anger, almost causing a bigger conflict. Seeing that the situation on the banquet was gradually uncontrollable, a huge military general stood up under Zhang Xun's tent, this person slammed his palm on the hardwood table, slammed the wooden table open, and then got up and left the table and came to the courtyard. He looked at the objects in the courtyard and took a fancy to a bluestone horse in the small courtyard scene, he didn't say a word, walked to the stone horse, and walked around. Everyone was also stunned by his actions, forgetting to quarrel, and watching the giant's actions. The giant didn't speak, and after looking at the stone horse for a while, he held the front leg of the green horse with one hand and the hind leg of the green horse with the other.
Because Taizong is good at martial arts, there is no one who does not like horses, Qin Emperor and Empress Taizong of Han Wu, who is not a person who loves horses. The upward and downward effects, so the bloodline of the Tang Dynasty contains a fanaticism for horses, up to the royal palace, down to the mountains and villages, the Tang people also use stone horses to decorate and decorate. Many of these stone horses are carved according to the size of real horses, and each of them is extraordinary, tall and mighty. These stone horses in Suiyang Taishou Mansion are all carved in imitation of the six horses of Zhaoling, standing in the center of the courtyard, implying that the force is strong and not humiliated. Each stone horse is carved out by a stonemason, the material is a whole stone, it is extremely inconvenient to carry it, a carved stone horse, weighing more than seven or eight hundred catties, it is usually consigned by a vehicle, today someone actually lifted it with bare hands, and the people in the hall who forgot to shout looked at such miracles, one by one were dumbfounded, trembling and heartbroken.
There have been many warriors in the army since ancient times, and there are even outsiders among the generals.
Yin Zhi's evil came, Qin Shi Xiang Yu, it is rumored that they are all gods who tear tigers and leopards alive, but after all, it is written in books, and many people laugh when they listen to it, and the generals in the army are even more sneering at such nonsense. They have never seen anyone in their lives, they have never heard of any exaggerated legends, those wrestlers in the army will lift more than 300 catties when they reach the sky, and those feats of 1,000 catties at every turn, they really come with their mouths open, and it is okay to fool those who have not studied, and they are naturally unbelievable. But today, when they were able to see it with their own eyes, they knew that they were sitting in the well and watching the sky, peeping at the leopard in the tube, and underestimating the heroes of the world, and they were the blind toads.
He lifted the stone horse silently, held a thousand pounds of stone horse around a few steps, found another place, after a little breathing, and then with both arms luck, slowly put the stone horse down, the stone horse fell to the ground, and smashed a shallow pit on the ground. After the man stabilized the horse, he held the horse's back with his hand, grew in and out for three weeks, collected the internal qi, unloaded the dark energy, and then raised his legs and returned to the inner hall, standing behind Zhang Xun, speechless and indifferent throughout the whole process, but the meaning of the subtext could not be more obvious.
On the table where the needle could be heard, the generals who were still full of anger just now did not dare to breathe at the moment, and they all sat down again in the sound of consolation, raised their glasses and exchanged pleasantries, only daring to take advantage of the time to raise their eyes and secretly look at the giant who moved the thousand catties of stone horses to the nest, everyone was secretly afraid in their hearts, annoyed by their own recklessness, deeply afraid of offending the mighty general who had more than a thousand catties, and then offended the arrogant and rude Zhang County Order.
The banquet was dissolved, and everyone returned to their residences tremblingly, remembering the unknown giant general in their minds, but as for the county commander sitting on the main seat, they were not deeply impressed. When they returned to their courtyard, they were really not at ease, so they sent their subordinates to inquire, and the report they got was indeed like their own
guessed the same, that is Nan Jiyun, known as "the first arrow in the world".
There is no reason for the fame!
Zhang Xun's first footprint in Suiyang was very firm because of Nanjiyun, and on the road after that, Zhang Xun walked by himself and walked more steadily.
On the second day after the banquet ended, Zhang Xun and Xu Yuan inspected all the armament barracks, men and horses, and heavy city defense equipment, each of which was registered in the register, and tried to ensure that nothing went wrong. Zhang Xun has a natural ability to "never forget". Thanks to this talent, every time he meets someone, from a general staff officer to a small groom, as long as he meets once and learns the name and position of the other party, he can remember it in his heart and give orders. This talent is one of the keys to Zhang Xun's ability to win the hearts of the people. Who doesn't want to be respected, and the most basic thing to respect a person is to be able to remember his name.
There are more than 7,000 defenders in Suiyang City, plus those reserve duties, a total of 156,000, Zhang Xun can remember them all, it is really incredible.
It's hardest to remember the name of this thing. The rich and noble are better, because they have read books, even if they have not read books, they can afford to ask scholars to name their babies, and the names have their own meanings, which are somewhat exquisite, not too repetitive, and it is better to remember. Just like the honest young owner, the ancestor seems to have accidentally got some chance and saved some fairy and monster, and he also heard legends, and he didn't know whether it was true or false for a long time. But since then, life has been smooth, but it is true, several generations of conscientious and diligent, to the generation of Shaodong's family has more than 100 acres of land, a few workshops to make a living. Because he was richer, his family invited Mr. Qi, whose name was Wang Xianshu, was a Ming scripture and his knowledge was not shallow. This teacher named the young owner and their brothers and sisters. Because the surname of the main family is Zhang, according to the arrangement of the previous generation, to their generation, it is time to the word "Lu", the young owner is naturally active, everyone hopes that he is more stable, when he was three years old, the teacher gave him a "Jing" word, the sound is harmonious "quiet", the meaning is calm and stable, calm and atmospheric, because it is the eldest grandson, the whole clan also hopes that he can be upright, stand up to the sky, so as to lead the entire Zhang family to be peaceful and peaceful. It's just that Zhang Lujing, a young owner, is not a peaceful master, fighting chickens and dogs, going to the house to uncover the tiles, demolishing the east and making up for the west, going from house to house, the butt is not hot, the hands and feet are idle, and there is no copper coin relationship with Jing.
As for a poor family like Wang Erxiao, the situation is very different, eating and drinking without worrying is already the ancestor of the accumulation of virtue, who has the money for the baby to study, just begging to fool the baby to grow up and work on the ground, as for the name, it doesn't matter. My father's name is Niu Er, my name is Niu Dan, and my son's name Niu Hulu is not very good, as for those female dolls, they can't even mix with a "gourd" for a lifetime. When I was young, I followed my father's surname, called a big lady and two daughters, because the village is mostly a family residence, often all the villages are full of a surname, and the result is the second daughter of Niu Niang Niu in the village, in order to distinguish, it is called the aunt of the Niu family, the second daughter of the Niu Iron Hammer family. Anyway, the female doll basically doesn't go out, and it's not so troublesome to distinguish it. When I got older, I found my mother-in-law's family, and I became famous when I married in the past, and those who married into the Ma family were called Ma Niu's, and those who married into the Li family were called Li Niu's, and they could also make do with the difference. Later, when she gave birth to a boy, her name was changed again, the son of the Ma family was called Ma Hu, she was called Ma Hu Niang, the son of the Li family was called Li Dong, she was called Li Dong's mother, until she died, the sign was written on the Ma Niu family Li Niu family, and as soon as the coffin was covered, it turned into loess, and this Sunday was ready for the next reincarnation. The daughter of the rich family is actually about the same, and the names are mostly Qiao Niang Yu Sister These big road goods, only those who are really particular about people, will give the girl a serious name of 800, but at that level, the poor people can't climb high in this life, and they don't know what the name is.
The name Wang Erxiao is called Erxiao because of the second in line, and that's it. The name is also very mysterious, thousands of years of heaven and earth have given birth to countless people, many different people have the same name, that is not a coincidence at all, but the stories of the owners of these names and surnames are different, it seems that the same name is not the same life, very chewy.
There were two people in the time of Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, one was crowned the king of Chu, the other was crowned the king of Han, one was powerful, one was forbearant and restrained, one was born in poverty, one was a royal noble, one was killed by a woman, one was killed on the battlefield, one was wiped out, and one was full of descendants. is like two peerless beauties, both called Zhaojun, one married three emperors, one gave birth to three emperors, one surnamed Wang and the other surnamed Lou.
Whether it is Han Xin or Zhaojun, although it seems to be noble and noble, it is also involuntarily killed, and it may not be happy compared to the pawns of the peddlers of cats and dogs. So a lot of things may be determined by sex from the time you are born.
It's like recruiting between the army, the name is very important, you go to sign up, people ask you what your name is, you say my name is Zhao Ergou, as soon as you hear the name of this local flavor, your family farming is almost the same, yes, there is no culture, go feed the horses and run errands. What's your name next, my surname is Qian Wenxiu, the word Xuanhong, where is the ancestral hometown, yes, this is not bad, the family must be rich, not only has a name and a surname, but also a table word, listen to the surname, well-known, join the army or be persecuted by others, and if you have read a book, go to make an account and give an order for the adults to send.
This is the various states of life, the world is impermanent, life is different, and fortune is different.
So one day, while you were feeding the horses, you suddenly heard a voice behind you:
"Zhao Ergou, your horse is so well fed!" I turned my head and opened my eyes, my God, this is Lord Zhang Zhongcheng, he actually knew my name, and he talked to me, I was not dreaming, is this true, this heavenly lord actually praised me, what a great honor! That day, the sunlight shone on the general's golden armor, shaking Zhao Ergou couldn't open his eyes, and a voice in his heart shouted, for this person, I am willing to die even if I die.
On the afternoon of the second day of Zhang Xun's arrival, after checking the garrison, he sent a barracks to a barracks, using all the posts of his peers, and did not claim to be superior, and the posts were sincere, modest and courteous, and the handwriting was neat. Those who received the worship post of Suiyang Wenwu later communicated with each other privately, and found that each worship post was the same one, in comparison, I learned that these hundreds of famous posts were written by Zhang Xun himself, and many inquiries learned that these were the first day after the banquet Zhang Xun picked up the pen overnight, sleepless all night, after writing, the sky was already transparent. After Zhang Xun finished writing the greeting post and sent it out, he went directly to inspect the barracks without delay.
Looking at the letter in his hand, those officials and generals slowly understood that this person may really not be to be underestimated, compared to the spiritual tremor brought by Nan Jiyun's peerless force, this thin name post is a moisturizing sweet spring, not as hot as spirits, but there is a gentle precipitation!
Mo Sheng's heart was full of calculations and precautions, and it finally came in handy on the fourth day.
It was a beautiful day, and the bitter cold of winter began to recede little by little as the years passed.
Spring is starting to wake up!
