Chapter 802: The Old Prince Was Scolded by Confucius
Since returning from traveling around the world, Confucius and Le Ge have not met.
After Confucius was picked up, he first went to the Lu Palace, and then went home without coming to the school. There is no need for him to come to the academy first, unless he passes by the entrance of the academy, he will not come.
Although he has been outside for more than ten years, he still knows about his family. Qi Guan's family moved to the countryside and died, and Kong Li also moved to the countryside, he knew it. Furthermore! relationship with Fang Qin, so he won't come to the school first.
Coming out of the Lu Palace, Confucius still had some entertainment. After the entertainment, I went straight back to my hometown in the countryside.
Confucius has always had descendants to pass on the idea, so! He wouldn't go to the academy to see Fang Qin either.
That's it, what does the seer daughter-in-law do? Isn't it? Furthermore! This is also not in line with the weekly etiquette. If your wife dies of illness, you have to go back to worship first, and you have to see your son first. You have to go home first, what are you going to run to the school?
Confucius did not come to the school, so naturally he did not meet with Lege.
Furthermore! What has Lege done over the years? Confucius naturally knew!
Although Lege has continued to run the school, the purpose of universal education has been continued, and the direction of Kelege's education is wrong.
He taught his students to "self-denial and repentance" and to promote his Confucian ideas. And Lege! The university under education is Taoist thought!
Without Confucius, the philosophy courses taught at Lege's universities were all Taoist thought. No! The consistent ideological line in the school is all Taoist thought, not just the university.
So! Based on this alone, Confucius did not want to see music. Even though Lege is an old prince, if you do something wrong, he will ignore you.
may be due to his age, plus he has to deal with some affairs in the school, and Le Ge has not visited since Confucius returned.
Furthermore! Lege has already seen that Confucius's thoughts have been stereotyped, and it is impossible for you to change him. There is a certain resistance to the thoughts of the two, so! It's better not to see. When we meet, something will definitely happen.
Time flies! In the blink of an eye, the carp pawn.
Lege has a relationship with Kong Carp, he grew up watching Kong Carp, and he has always liked it. And the hole carp! has always respected his fake uncle as a real uncle, and also treated him sincerely. Later hole carp! I was greatly influenced by music songs.
Later hole carp! It can also be said to be a Taoist.
It's just that! In real life, he can't be himself.
Knowing that Kong Carp was dead, Le Ge naturally wanted to go. Outcome! I met with Confucius.
When Kong Li remarried, because Confucius did not invite him over, Lege did not pass.
Kong Li was very low-key when he remarried, probably because he was afraid that the Fang family would have an opinion, so he didn't publicize it. After all! Confucius lived in the same village as Fang Jishi. And also! Fang Zhong and Fang Shu both have a certain influence in society. You just gave someone else's sister a wife, and you immediately got married again, will it make people misunderstand and unhappy?
After worshipping Confucius carp, Le Ge met Confucius.
As an old prince, although Confucius didn't want to see it, he still wanted to see it.
"Mourning!"
"Woo!"
After some words, Confucius asked about the school. In fact! It's just the same polite remark. He knew the changes that had taken place in the school.
"How many students are there in the academy now?"
"About a hundred and ten!"
"How many gentlemen?"
"Five fixed gentlemen, the others are my children and grandchildren......"
"Is there a weekly ritual class?" Confucius asked.
"Yes!" Lege felt that Confucius was about to have a seizure.
"Yes?" Confucius asked suspiciously.
"Yes!" Lege replied affirmatively.
"Is the weekly ritual you teach still the weekly rite?"
"Why isn't what I'm teaching Zhou Li?"
"You're just teaching shape!"
"Shape?" Lege asked, "What is form?" ”
"It's just pretending, and there is no longer the quality of etiquette!" Confucius said bluntly.
"What is quality?" Lege asked.
"It's about having etiquette in your heart! Instead of putting on a show! Confucius said.
"The weekly etiquette you taught, you have etiquette in your heart? How do you know that someone else has etiquette in their hearts? Le Ge asked rhetorically.
With such a result today, Lege already had a guess, so he was mentally prepared. Furthermore! Isn't it? Confucius had just lost his son and was in a bad mood, so it was normal for him to want to reprimand him.
Confucius traveled around the world for more than ten years, although he was not reused by the princes and kings, but on the surface, he respected him very much and listened carefully. Outcome! Let Confucius think that others listened to his words. And because of this! I have developed the habit of being a teacher and being respected.
But he just didn't think about it seriously: others didn't take his words as words from their hearts at all, and did not listen to them, but only agreed on the surface, so as to get a reputation of "respecting and using meritocracy".
In Confucius's mind, although music has changed, in the end he still did not take music seriously. In the memory of Confucius, Le Ge is still the Le Ge he met for the first time, the Le Ge who is younger than him and doesn't understand anything, and the stupid brother of the Qi Guan's family......
In Confucius's mind, music is like this. So! Instinctively, with good intentions, Confucius wanted to teach or tune the music.
Not this time? Lege got the school's ideological direction wrong, can he not say a few words about Lege?
"I know! You are influenced by Lao Tzu's Taoism, and you are spreading Lao Tzu's Taoist thoughts! You? Confucius looked at the music song and said.
"What happened to Lao Tzu's Taoism?" Lege asked.
"I also listened to Lao Tzu's Taoism, but I just think: society must have a standard! It is necessary to have a weekly system and a weekly ceremony! A society without norms is not chaotic? And Lao Tzu! He also said that if you want to change society, you must start from reality......"
"Didn't the Zhou Dynasty have a Zhou system and a Zhou ceremony? Why is it messed up? ”
"Not yet? Because most people don't follow the weekly system and weekly etiquette, it causes the etiquette to collapse? ”
"Why don't others follow the weekly system and weekly etiquette?"
"Why don't you follow the weekly system and weekly etiquette?"
"Why didn't I follow?"
"You didn't follow the syllabus to teach students the weekly rites!" Confucius pointed to the right point.
"I just pointed out the essence of the ceremony! If you understand the essence of etiquette, you don't need to take those superficial forms of etiquette seriously! And you! It is also only focusing on the form, letting the world do superficial articles, not knowing the essence of the rite and the source of the rite! ……”
"Please come back!" Confucius saw that Lege couldn't listen to his words, so he stretched out his hand and gestured.
"You?" How could Le Ge never think that Confucius would give him an order to expel guests and drive him away?
He wanted to have a good debate with Confucius and explain the problem clearly.
He felt that this was a good opportunity to use his travels around the world as an example to give Confucius a thorough understanding of Lao Tzu's Taoism.
Now him! I felt that I had the ability to convince Confucius.
But! Confucius did not give him this opportunity.
