Chapter 352: Tian Yuan Forced and Cornered Teng (12)
After a month, it was August, and the weather was gradually getting a little cooler.
The Mozhi people from all over the country who were notified to participate in this synonymous meeting returned to Pei County, either from Pengcheng, or from Chudi, or from Song Qi.
Shibi came back a few days earlier than his grandson, Tengdi is very close to Pei County, Tengdi's city walls and the three fortresses guarding the four borders are being built, everything is in order, and there is no mistake.
The riders scattered out to report the movements of the Yue people every day, and the ink people in Wu Yue in Qidi also brought back the information they needed.
Now it seems that the Yue people are in contact with the Qi Guotian clan, but it is impossible to move troops for the time being, at least until the spring and summer of next year.
Hu Feizi did a good job in the Qi Kingdom, the Tian family was repairing the Great Wall near the Yue Kingdom, and the section of the Great Wall near Pingyin that was demolished by the Sanjin Dynasty was also quietly being built.
Wei Zheng and Chu fought fiercely, and Qi did not dare to send troops directly this time, but it still provided enough help to Chu State, and wanted to rely on Chu State to contain the power of the Three Jins, and at the same time, he also took advantage of the situation after the Mo family seized the Teng State and restored the country, and planned to guard against Yue State.
Although Tian knew that the Mo family's help to restore Teng Guo this time had nothing to do with Qi State, everything had already been done, and Qi State was naturally happy to see the decline of Yue State.
There is no need to send envoys to communicate with each other, this matter involves Tian's own interests, and the distance of thousands of miles still makes Yue Guo not know what kind of attitude Qi will have, and he does not dare to move troops easily.
In this case, I think that this year can be spent safely.
Nowadays, if countries want to send troops, they need enough time to prepare. Although Jin and Chu have been fighting for many years in recent years, the real decisive battle has not yet begun, and the scale is 350,000 people every year, so it cannot be bigger, and no matter how big it is, it will be difficult for the logistics of the two countries to support.
At present, Peixian County has not yet made full-scale preparations for war, and this matter can only be carried out after this synonymous meeting, and it must be approved and approved by the appropriate opinions.
After returning to Peixian, Shi did not go to visit the rest of the Mozi or friends, but went directly to meet Mozi.
Mozi was sick and a little emaciated, but he seemed to be in good spirits.
After Shi entered the room, Mozi beckoned to Shi and said with a smile: "You came back early." Needless to say, there are reports every few days. Since you have returned early, there must be something else, so just say it. ”
Shi smiled, knelt down beside Mozi, took out a few books from the package behind him, and said, "These books, please take a look at them." ”
Mozi took it, looked at the bibliography, and saw that the name was taken from the four characters of "Mojia Jingyi", and he already understood the meaning of Shi in his heart, and said with a smile: "You are looking at me and I'm afraid of dying of old age, do you want me to see it before I die?" ”
Shi lowered his head and said: "The Mo family is not afraid of death, the ghosts respect the sky, and the funeral does not ask for death as life." The disciple knows what Mr. thinks, and it is nothing more than benefiting the world, so the secretary was compiling this set of books before, and Mr. knew. In order to be able to have more people understand, he wrote this volume of "The Essence of the Mohist Family" in some plain language, and asked Mr. to look at it. ”
Mozi nodded, flipped through it casually, and continued on the side: "Zhong Ni said, say it but don't do it." He can be a Confucian, but the Mohists can't do it. ”
"Confucianism is ancient, so it can be recounted. Confucianism is conservative, so it is inevitable not to do it. The gentleman said, 'Yao is good at governance, and it has been in the past.' Since ancient times, Zeyao can't govern it', so the Mo family has to do it. ”
Confucius said but did not do it, and the meaning of this work is change and revolution.
Saying but not doing means stating the wisdom and experience of the ancients and not adding it to one's own thoughts. To do not do it is not to change and not to add to one's own understanding.
This is very different from the Mo family.
Both Confucianism and Mohism praised the ancient holy kings, but the Mo family believed that 'Yao is good at governance, and since now it has been in the ancients.' Since ancient times, it has been impossible to govern Yao'.
It is believed that the "benevolent" heart of the ancient holy king, who loves the world, can be learned and praised.
However, the "righteousness" of the holy king in ancient times could not govern the current world.
Shi knew that Mozi had been a non-Confucian all his life, and after saying this, he couldn't help but tell a joke about a non-Confucian in later generations, and said: "The Chu people have a person who wades into the river, and his sword falls from the boat, and he deceives his boat, saying: 'It is the place where my sword falls'." The boat stops, and the one to whom it is contracted enters the water to seek it. The boat has been done, but the sword is not, if the sword is like this, isn't it also confusing? ”
Mozi laughed when he heard this, and said, "That's exactly the truth. Confucian carved a boat and sought a sword, but he couldn't govern the world. Yao's politics and righteousness cannot be regarded as good governance at this time, can the morality of Confucianism govern the world? ”
In the midst of laughter, he coughed a few more times, and looked down at the set of compiled "Mojia Jingyi" that was sent.
He understood what he meant, he was going to die, so if he wanted to keep the Mo family from having six points of Confucianism, he, the founder of the Mo family, must leave a complete theory, so as not to be taken out of context.
In the twenty-eighth year of Lu Xianggong, Cui Zi of Qi was in turmoil, and the Qing family and the Lu family were married, and some people objected and said: The Qing family and the Lu family are both descendants of the Jiang family, how can you marry Qing Jiang of the same clan as a wife?
The people of the Lu clan replied, "Qingshe does not avoid the same clan, and wants to marry my daughter to me, why should I avoid it?" It's like someone truncating the Book of Songs and only picking out the parts they need to express their meaning. I only take what I want, so why should I be of the same sect and not of the same sect?
The matter of taking words out of context has long been known, and Mozi is also well aware of the reason why Confucianism is now six points, so he cares very much about the volume in his hand.
Originally, as a secretary, he was to sort out the remarks of the giant. This was decided a few years ago when the position of secretary was first created.
The secretary has been sorting it out, and Shi has not relaxed, so there is this volume of "The Essence of the Mo Family" that Mozi sees now.
He flipped through it and found that the book was divided into three parts.
The first part, which is regarded as his daily remarks, was recalled by some disciples and sorted out by the secretary, and the genre is similar to the "Analects", and it is a bit like the "Warring States Policy", which can be said to be the remarks of Mozi's life, and it can also be said to be a model for the debate between some Mozi and other schools.
The first part is broken down into several volumes.
According to the habit of the Analects, the first two words of the opening chapter should be used as the title.
The five articles "Ploughing Pillar", "Gongmeng", "Guiyi", "Luwen", and "Gonglosing" all existed originally.
However, in addition to these five, there are two others.
The first two words of the opening article are "Shengxuan", although it is a name of rebellion, but in fact it is a suitable private goods.
From the time when Shangqiu gathered Sheng Xuan to betray the Mo family, Shi mainly wanted to write the praise of Mozi for himself, but after all, he was not too embarrassed to use his own name as the title of the book, so he had to borrow the name of Sheng Xuan first.
In Shangqiu that year, Mozi vigorously praised Shi as a person who was "beneficial to the world", in order to satirize the victory and boost the noble and righteous heart of the Mo family, and also to use Shi to remind the rest of the Mo people.
This compliment was the first record of the right one, so I remembered it very clearly, and I wrote it out.
The second additional article, titled "Juyi", is mainly a record of the speeches made by the Mohists at several conferences in recent years, which contains both Mozi's remarks and a large part of the appropriate remarks.
These are all truthfully recorded, Mozi took a closer look and made sure that there was no big problem, after all, Shi was not embarrassed to boast about himself, but left a lot of space to record other things.
Mozi looks further back, and the second part is the "morality" and "political philosophy" of the Mohists, which is the essence of the righteousness of the Mohists.
Inside, a series of modifications and corrections have been carried out to form a complete system as much as possible.
The original space includes "Shang Xian", "Fei Attack", "Love", "Saving Use", "Fei Le", "Ming Ghost", "Shang Tong", "Fei Life", "Tianzhi", "Festival Funeral", "Non-Confucian" and other eleven articles.
Shi has secretly changed a lot, and even some of the names have been changed, and a lot of content has been added.
The content of "Saving Use", "Saving Funeral" and "Non-Happiness" is integrated into one article, and the content also follows Mozi's original principle of saving money and developing people's livelihood, and is integrated into "The Wealth of Nations", which is used to add part of the labor to create wealth, integrate wealth and develop industries.
The title of "Shang Xian" has not been changed, and the content is not only Shang Xian, but also the "imperial examination system" approved by Mozi after the appearance of pen and paper and printing.
In the words, Mozi first explains the importance of Shangxian, and then points out "how to achieve Shangxian", which includes a system similar to the examination selection.
However, the Mohists themselves pay attention to "all kinds of work can be virtuous", so the content of the exam includes a lot of "Tianzhi" content in the third part.
The "Chronicles of Heaven" and "Ming Ghosts" are combined into the "Chronicles of Heaven", which expounds what is meant by "Chronicles of Heaven" and what is meant by "Ghosts of Heaven", but it is mainly suitable for the set of contents that secretly replace Chronicles of Heaven with "scientific conclusions".
The title of "Non-Confucian" has not been changed, and this one is not suitable for change, the level is not enough, and it is still the same as before.
"Shang Tong", the title was changed to "Yiyuan". It borrows the core of Mozi's belief that "in ancient times, there were hundreds of people and hundreds of righteousness, and everyone chose the righteousness that best met everyone's interests and formed a moral law", and developed it.
In fact, the content of "Yiyuan" can be regarded as a kind of historical idealism of the theory of the origin of the state in which sovereignty resides in the people, which integrates the content of some bourgeois enlightenments in later generations, and perfectly integrates with the spirit of "choosing the Son of Heaven to return to righteousness" of the Mohists.
It expounds the emergence of the Son of Heaven, the emergence of morality and law, and the fact that morality and law will continue to change with the development of the times, so that "Yao has good governance since the beginning of the ages." Since ancient times, Zeyao cannot be governed."
Finally, he also expounded the legitimacy of the public centralism within the Mo family and the public will of Peixian, which can be regarded as a declaration of aristocrats against reason.
"Non-Attack" and "Love" are integrated into one article, called "Paradise", which depicts a perfect social concept.
It is counted as a sister article of "Yiyuan". "Yiyuan" talks about the anti-justification of creating aristocracy, and "Paradise" talks about what kind of new system should be established after the rebellion overthrew the old system.
The title of the article "Non-Destiny" remains the same, and the content is also about "human efforts can change fate, and there is no such thing as fate in the world", which is to oppose the Confucian mandate of heaven and the "power life" of Yang Zhu and Liezi.
"Non-Fate" is in conjunction with the revised "Chronicles of Heaven", which is used to create a "no longer care" emperor who "no longer cares after the rules are formulated", so as to complete the rationality of "fighting and changing his life".
