Chapter 148: Puzzle Clearing
Everyone sighed, this is the first time I've heard of such a sentence. However, according to Yue Buqun's way of breaking sentences, it seems that there is nothing to do. Yue Buqun continued: "At this time, many things can no longer be used as in the ancient flood period, which blindly asked the people to do it, without letting them understand why they did it. Why? As I said before, 'When time shifts, things change', and current events have changed dramatically from the beginning. One change is that things have become more and more complex as cultural knowledge has grown and technology has advanced. If the people are simply asked to follow rigid orders, they will probably not be able to do this well. Another change is the improvement of the cultural literacy of the people, who have been able to understand the meaning behind the orders. Therefore, 'the people may, let it be done, but not, let it know.'" That is to say, if the people approve of it, let him follow it and follow it, and if he does not approve of it, he must patiently explain it to him and let him know. This stage can be called the society of knowledge and action. All the scholars were impressed, and the words of Sage Kong were explained by Yue Buqun one by one, and they could really keep pace with the times.
A Shizi asked: "Teacher, I think that for the people, they only need to let them work hard, and they don't need to know too much." If they know too much, they will inevitably think about everything every day, how can they have the heart to work? Once they think about what is wrong and go crazy, how do they know that Xiao Xiao will not use it to make trouble? Doing so will only cause trouble. Isn't this exactly the case with the rebellion of the mob and the rebellion of the cult in the past dynasties?"
When the rest of the gentlemen thought about it, this statement seemed to make sense. Yue Buqun smiled and shook his head, there was a kind of compassion on his face, the era in which people live determines their ideology. If Yue Buqun is not from the next generation, but a person of the same era as the person sitting here, he will only go back to Yue Buqun's old path. Besides, there is a tradition of pursuing a policy of ignoring the people in China for thousands of years, and even in the midst of that cultural turmoil, didn't some people shout that "the more knowledge, the more reactionary"?
Yue Buqun thought for a while and said, "Have you ever thought about why Zhuge Wuhou in the Three Kingdoms period died early at the age of fifty-four? Why did Zhuge Wuhou die in less than thirty years after Zhuge Wuhou died?" Shu Han's affairs, big and small, Zhuge Wuhou did not worry about others to do it, and he had to do it himself to rest assured. Therefore, even if Zhuge Wuhou is talented, he can only support him until he is fifty-four years old in the complicated military affairs. Zhuge Wuhou not only overdrew his life in advance, but also laid the root of the demise of Shu Han. Because he is personally involved, his subordinates do not have the opportunity to exercise. When Zhuge Liang lets go of Xihuan, Shu will no longer have any available materials. In fact, Zhuge Wuhou had already discovered this problem in the late stage, so he accepted Jiang Wei and cultivated him as his successor. It's a pity that it's too late, and how can one Jiang Wei alone restore the decline of Shu Han? On the other hand, in the Wei State, after Sima Yi's death, there were still Sima Yan, Sima Zhao, Zhong Hui, Deng Ai, and so on, each of whom was a talented general who stood alone on one side, so it was natural that the Three Kingdoms would return to Jin in the end. ”
Yue Buqun paused for a while and said: "Therefore, with the promotion of a country's prime minister, it is necessary to make the subordinate generals know. If a state is too guarded, it needs to be known to its subordinates. If you push it by a county order, you need to know the people. Only everyone knows, understands, and grasps it, so no matter what part changes, the court can deal with it as usual, and will not be caught off guard by the departure or death of the person who 'knows'. ”
Zhu Shizi praised: "The teacher's words are indeed the truth!"
Yue Buqun said: "In the past, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty once said, 'The people, the water, can carry the boat, and can also overturn the boat. It is the mighty waters of the people that carry the boat of kings and the boat of history. Therefore, when we interpret the language of the ancient sages, we must interpret it from the perspective of the common people, so that we can draw correct conclusions. Otherwise, even if we take into account the 'time shift' situation, our interpretation may not be correct. It is still said that 'the people may, let it be by, and not, make it known'. If it is not from the point of view of the people, but from the point of view of the ruler, it is likely to be interpreted as, 'If the people are obedient, let him go, and if they are not obedient, they must be taught, taught, and made them obey.' This so-called 'a small difference, a thousand miles of error'!"
Wang Shouren seemed to have an understanding, but he didn't seem to be enlightened, Yue Buqun said: "Bo'an, you have your own way to go, and the teacher doesn't want to impose his own ideas on you." You can travel to various places for another three years, and you can also visit the Turpan Khanate in the Western Regions, and then visit Jiliao after three years. Compare them with each other, and you may have something to gain. ”
Wang Shouren hurriedly bowed to Yue Buqun for his guidance. Tang Yin arched his hand and said: "Teacher, we have set up a 'Mr. Xiyue Doctrine Literary Association', can you please give the teacher an aphorism? ”
Yue Buqun thought for a while and said: "I'll leave a few sentences, the first sentence, the rise and fall of the world, the husband is responsible." In the second sentence, the officials only obey the people and the law, and the officials do not love fame and money. The third sentence is that if you don't make decisions for the people, it's better to go home and sell tofu. ”
Yue Buqun's next step is to inspect Wang Shouren's martial arts, Wang Shouren was only a fourth-rate level before apprenticeship, after nearly two years of practice, swordsmanship, boxing have made great progress, with a third-rate high-grade realm, in order to touch the second-rate level. Yue Buqun was happy and regretful, happy that Wang Shouren was worthy of the name of a saint, and his talent for practicing martial arts was also extremely high. This is still a dislike of martial arts, and he has not taken any natural treasures, and his internal force is not slow, and he has the level of third-rate middle grade. In this way, within six or seven years, Wang Shouren will be able to have first-class martial arts, and in another ten years, he will be an absolute first-class master of the top grade. It is a pity that Wang Shouren cannot become a disciple of the Huashan faction and inherit the martial arts of the Huashan faction.
Yue Buqun thought about it, and asked Wang Shouren to teach what he had learned in the future among the literati, which could be regarded as another branch of the Huashan School's martial arts. At this time, Tang Yin, Zhu Yunming, and Wenbi also intended to worship Yue Buqun as a teacher, and Wang Shouren also intended to worship Yue Buqun as a teacher and become a formal friendship between master and apprentice. Although this master and apprentice are not as strict as the masters and apprentices in the rivers and lakes, Yue Buqun is still overjoyed, and immediately chooses a quiet room and sets up an incense case to accept the apprentice. and informed the four of their own identities of the Huashan Sect and the Five Virtue Sect, which surprised the four of them, and made a heavy oath not to reveal Yue Buqun's identity to others.
Yue Buqun saw that Tang Yin, Zhu Yunming, and Wenbi were all good at calligraphy, and Wang Shouren's calligraphy was not bad, so he taught the four of them the secrets obtained from the Demon Sect, and renamed them "Spring and Autumn Brushwork" and "One Yuan Fingering" and "Gentleman's Righteous Steps". He also asked Wang Shouren, the senior brother, to teach what he had learned to the other three on his behalf. However, the high-level internal skills are taught to Tang Yin's "Bliss Dafa", Zhu Yunming to practice "Spiritual Void Dafa", and Wenbi to practice "Cold Ice and Snow Courage". With these three or four disciples with strong literary skills, Yue Buqun promised that the Xiangxi Zombie Gate could also be arranged to find books. There is no real book, but there is a fake.
