However, no one listened to him.

And now that he stands up and doesn't want the sue to win this debate, but he is still scolded by his peers as a defector and a villain, what can he do?

There is only a long sigh.

The plaintiff avoided the question and led the question from whether equality is a will of heaven to the question of "whether the people want equality", and the answer could not be the two of them, but the thousands of people in the world.

So what's the argument about?

In terms of the demagoguery of the bottom, this Confucian scholar understood that he could not compare with the Mohists at all, and their advantage was to lobby the king to keep it for generations.

This is based on one's own shortcomings and the strength of attacking the enemy, and the victory or defeat has already been lost when these people decide to come to Sishang to argue.

The hundred schools of thought have made great progress compared with 20 years ago, and the direction of Confucian innovation has been occupied: there are Mohists in the world, there are farmers in the interests of small peasants, agriculture over business, Taoism in Taoism, and the self-transformation of all peoples, Guanzi School in the Rich Treasury School, and the Morebellious and Wu Qi and Xihe Schools in the Law of Strengthening the Army......

Confucianism has no other way to go except retro.

This Confucian understands too well the horror of this situation: whoever shouts the most retro is the real Confucian, and when the time comes, morality will only become more and more conservative and retro, and he will not dare to take a step forward, otherwise he will be heretical.

But if this continues, Confucianism has only a dead end.

Unless there is a change, under the concept of "self-denial", it becomes a "new rite of self-denial", the core remains the same, waiting for the future, so as to adapt to the new era and wait for a certain day in the future.

However...... Now in this atmosphere of "all schools of thought are developing and perfecting, and whoever is the most conservative is the true Confucian", he has to carry the spurning of his fellow disciples, the insults of his fellow disciples, and the possibility of being expelled from Confucianism.

Do you really want to be like those sons, leaving the current Confucianism and starting your own sect?

Listening to the insults of his fellow disciples one after another, Confucian smiled bitterly in his heart.

When the scolding was noisy again, the Confucian finally chose not to argue with the confession, but turned back and laughed at his original colleague.

When he smiled, the people below were stunned.

The Confucian shouted with all his might: "Concubine! Deficiencies and conspiracy! You are all waste, and the Master's learning will be destroyed in your hands! ”

"In the past, they relied on their tongues to argue, but they were expelled from the palace, hoping that their doctrines would be used by the king."

"Now Sishang's doctrine does not want to be used by the king at all, they are speaking to the people, they already have 50,000 troops and thousands of miles of land, and they don't need to be expelled from the palace at all!"

"Times have changed!"

"You who speak to kings, and try to convince the people? Isn't it ridiculous? You don't know how Confucianism can be practiced in the world, and it is useless to say to the people? ”

"If you continue to argue, sooner or later the master's learning will be ruined in your hands!"

"Confucianism cannot change the immutable dead learning, it must change with the times, but maintain the core that can be used by the king, so that it is possible to make Confucianism flourish. You people shouted hardest, calling me a traitor, but you fools are the ones who are the ones who have ruined the Master's learning! ”

After scolding his fellow disciples, this Confucian madness was fully revealed, and he pointed to the people below who had just praised Taoism and the Yang Zhu school for his words, and they also scolded madly.

"You people from the Yang Zhu School are just as stupid."

"You want everyone to lose nothing, and everyone is not good for the world, but your righteousness is not in the army, who do you think your doctrine can be adopted?"

"It's ridiculous that you people can only cultivate on your own, but you want to be born and participate in the battle of the world."

"The Mo family can bewitch the industrialists, industrialists, and peasants, but you can only bewitch those who have some property but are afraid of being taken away by the king. The king will not use your righteousness, nor the farmer will use your righteousness, so what is the use of your birth? ”

"You don't understand at all, how many people in the world are qualified to hope that everyone will not lose a single bit?"

"According to your decision, the peasants in the fiefdom can't take a single cent from the lords and nobles, do you think they will listen to you? What the Mo family wants to do is to bring chaos to the world; What about you? You can only follow the Mo family and shout, after they divide the land, you are qualified to say that everyone does not lose a penny, everyone is not good for the world, otherwise no one has a penny, a fart? ”

"You still hide, cultivate yourself, keep your nature authentic, and wait until the Mo family is in chaos in the world before you stand up!"

After scolding Yang Zhu's disciples, this Confucian scholar still didn't stop, and pointed his finger at the Taoist disciple who had just applauded "self-transformation", and also opened his mouth to scold: "You Chen Cai's Taoist faction is not unaware that people's desires will cause chaos in the world, but you dare not admit it. ”

"It is said that all things are self-transformed, and all things are self-transformed. But what is the rule of the saints, humble their hearts, and their stomachs. Weak in wisdom and strong in bones, often make the people ignorant and desireless. ”

"You also know that if all things are self-transformed, they will be the weak and the strong, but you can't solve it, so you have to say that you have to retreat to the rule of small countries and widows, so that the people are ignorant and have no desires, so that the world can be governed!"

"I only ask you, is this people's desire the people's heart? Are people all things? Is the desire of the human heart owned by man? Self-transformation and self-transformation, even human desires are not considered human nature, what else is self-transformation? ”

"If you want people to be pure-hearted, to make people all true, not burdened by external things, to be satisfied, and not to pursue more, what is the difference between that and our self-denial?"

"If only everyone could be fully true and not burdened by external objects; So why can't everyone do it if they are self-denying? ”

"If it really conforms to the self-transformation of all things, is human desire within the scope of self-transformation? Don't you see the root of the chaos in the world? No matter how reasonable your way is, what difference is your solution to this troubled world from ours? ”

After scolding Chen Cai's Taoist family, this Confucian student faced the confession again, and scolded: "Your Mo family is the same!" ”

"Humanity, humanity! You shout that human nature is a need, so that you can bring chaos to the world, incite the people, make everyone seek profit, and say that the unity of the world and yourself will benefit the world, so that the stupid people of the world will be deceived by you. ”

"The needs of human nature are endless, what is the difference between you and us?"

"The Yang-Zhu school understands that people's needs are endless, so they should cultivate their minds so that they do not have more desires after reaching satisfaction."

"Chen Cai Taoist understands that people's needs are endless, so they want to retreat to the world of small countries and widows, so that people's needs will change due to material conditions, so that there will not be so many needs at this time."

"We understand that man's needs are endless, so we need to repent, so that everyone is courteous, hierarchical, so as to agree on what kind of people can have what kind of desires they want."

"What about you? You guys are even more ridiculous! ”

"Your solution to the endless desires of people is to tell the people of the world that there is no fear of demand, demand is not afraid of continuous improvement, and everyone's needs are not afraid of continuous improvement, as long as you master the principle of heaven and use it for people, people will win the day, you can produce more food, produce more cloth, and ......."

"Do you really think that this ascension is endless enough to keep up with human desires? Do you really think that one day in the world will be able to produce 1,000 catties of grain per mu and a large piece of cloth per person a day? At that time, people's desires will also increase, and when they are hungry, they will think about being full, when they are full, they will think about eating well, and when they are full, they will think about delicacies...... There is no end, and your paradise never ends! ”

"The world will always move forward as you do, and it will never stop!"

"The future you give will be endless, and the whole world will be extremely tired, all seeking profit, seeking the learning of those villains, and learning the learning of those crops, such a world, don't do it!"

"In a world like yours, people will never know what people are, and they will never know what their nature is other than their needs, because everyone in such a world is meeting their needs from beginning to end, and they will never stop! Such a person is no different from an animal! ”

After scolding almost all the schools of thought, the Confucian scholar looked up to the sky and laughed: "The master has passed away, and no one can say that I am not a Confucian scholar!" ”

"I said yes, I am! Only I can truly revive the Master's learning, and make it possible for the Master's learning to be practiced in the world in the future! ”

"Because I know the essence of the master's learning, the relationship between the hierarchy and people's desires, and I also know that the gentleman should consider the superior and should not think about debating with the slut, and the etiquette is not for the subordinates."

"You insult me today, and one day Confucianism will worship me and sacrifice me."

After laughing, the Confucian scholar pointed to the confession and said, "I put forward the statement that human nature is inherently good. ”

"If your doctrines really work in the world in the future, my doctrines will naturally be useless."

"But you are going to oppose the princes of the world, and if you fail, your doctrine will be burned, and those who believe in your doctrine will be killed."

"The inherent goodness of human nature is to leave a seed for the summer of Kyushu, when one day you are destroyed, the prince and the administration always need this human nature to persuade them, at least to make them a little more kind to the people. True or false, at least not too brutal. ”

"If you all die, and my doctrine can make the world less miserable."

After laughing out loud, the Confucian walked down with a frenzied expression, and looked at the hostile gaze as if it were nothing, as if the naysayers were worthless ants, and those resentful gazes were but the embodiment of jealousy.

Pointing out the country and judging hundreds of schools, he seems to have stood on the top of Mount Tai, and the breath of the small world fills his heart.

However, after only two steps, a shout came from the side.

"Kill this traitor!"

"You're a fool who doesn't understand the master's teachings!"

"The rules of the ceremony can be changed, so what kind of Confucian is it?"

"You're not a Confucian at all!"

"Die! Traitor! ”

The Confucian scholars who had just been insulted rushed up, and with the anger of contempt, and the hatred of the betrayer, the man was immediately drowned in endless fists and kicks.

By the time the soldiers who maintained order pulled away the Confucianism, the madman who had sworn to pioneer Confucianism was dead.

Facing the corpses, the crowd was not chaotic at all, and in the troubled times, there were more things about the dead.

An old man among the Confucian scholars looked at the disciples who were defending orthodoxy, took a deep breath, and was stunned.

"A hundred schools of thought contend, chaos and righteousness are rampant, it is necessary to distinguish between friend and foe. We have no other way to go except for self-denial and the retro of keeping the etiquette unchanged, because all other roads have been preempted by those thieves and villains. All my Confucian students, I must refrain from self-denial, and the etiquette must not be chaotic and immutable. Those who want to change are not Confucian students! ”

Rumble...... Those Confucian scholars immediately let out bursts of cheers, and the battle between schools can be tolerated, but if even self-denial and revenge are not the ultimate ideal, then what kind of Confucian students are they? Whether it's your own faction or someone else, it's always ...... No longer Confucianism.

Only the victor is qualified to be inclusive and broad-minded.

In this troubled era, in this troubled era when the king needs a rich country and a strong army, and the people need land wealth, it is difficult for them to become victors, so they can only choose the most conservative path.

They have found a correct way for "Confucianism" in the "hundred schools" dispute, and only the purest retro can be possible in this troubled era of continuous development of the hundred schools of thought not to be assimilated by other schools, so that they can be clearly identified and distinguished.

However, their "Confucianism" has reached a dead end.
