Public opinion, in contrast, was quickly stirred up. Once public opinion is stirred, it is very difficult to calm it down in a short period of time.

The high-level of the Mo family had already prepared for this matter, and in order to prevent countries from interfering, they had waited so long before they could do it, and with the fermentation of Wu Qi and others entering the Qin Dynasty and Handan Gongzi Zhang Gongzi, this opportunity was finally waiting.

In order to undertake the public opinion, the Mohists, in the capacity of the Mohist organization, sent a high-standard envoy to Fei Guo, led by Meng Sheng, and put forward a total of more than 40 "reform" proposals, in order to "save the people from the three troubles".

Since it was led by Meng Sheng, the specifications of this envoy group were already extremely formal, and it seemed that the Mo family did not exert pressure by force, but still taught and persuaded them, hoping that the monarch and nobles of the Fei Kingdom could change spontaneously.

The more than forty suggestions were taken for granted to the people of Sishang, and they felt that they should all be completely achievable, and they should be taken for granted.

However, from the beginning of the designation, the high-level officials of the Shihe Mo family knew that these more than 40 suggestions were impossible for the Fei country to accept.

Meng Sheng's trip, if it is just to persuade benevolent government, is afraid that it will be in vain.

But if it is not just to "persuade" benevolent government, then it may not be in vain.

Obviously, the Mohists believed in the theory of interests and knew the contradictions, but they also formulated a forty-point proposal that was like a fantasy, that is, the monarchs and nobles of the Fei Kingdom did not accept it.

If you accept it, it's not good.

Meng Sheng led the envoy, and Pengcheng's law-making public righteousness meeting was still going on and would not end in a short time.

The Propaganda Department went full force to carry out public opinion propaganda, and an article called "Three Tribulations of the Common People" with tears in his eyes was used for the first time in the form of "interview" to show the suffering of those common people and slaves from a detailed first-hand perspective.

It looks like this meeting of righteousness is going to last for months, maybe even longer.

And the Mohist newspaper is spreading every day the controversy and discussion at the public righteousness meeting that is more and more radical, more and more rebellious, more and more rude, and more and more involved in the analysis of interests.

Fei Guoguo, the second room pavilion.

Later generations called Lanling or Zaozhuang's second room, which is the capital of Fei State.

Tracing the history of the ancestors of the Fei country, it can be said that the spirit of the nobility is everywhere, and the history of the ancestors is a microcosm of the aristocratic era.

In the past, Qi Hou's sister Wen Jiang married to Lu State, and after getting married, she still had an affair with her brother, and after her brother sent someone to kill her brother-in-law, her sister's son was enthroned as Lu Hou.

Lu Hou wanted to marry, but Wen Jiang, who was a mother, insisted that Lu Hou win his brother's daughter, that is, the daughter of Qi Xianggong - his niece, who could also be called the daughter of his own man, depending on which side.

Wen Jiang gave birth to Lu Hou and Ji You, that is, the ancestor of the Ji Sun family. Ji You and Lu Hou are half-brothers, but they are half-brothers with Qing's father and uncle.

Lu Hou listened to his mother Wen Jiang's words and married his wild father's daughter and his uncle and cousin. But his wife, Wai Jiang, had an affair with Qing's father, and he had no children, so a daily routine between nobles unfolded like this.

Ji You and Lu Hou worked together to kill the fourth brother Shuya, and then Ji You survived the second brother Lu Hou, the eldest brother Qingfu and Wai Jiang killed Lu Hou's son, and Ji You found the second brother's other younger son from the field, and used this as a legal reason to kill his eldest brother Qing's father, and supported the underage nephew to succeed to the throne, which can be said to have the last laugh in this decades-long aristocratic daily life.

As a result, the Ji family gradually became autocratic in the Lu country, although Qing's father and Shuya died sideways, but the heirs still had fiefdoms, and the "Three Huan" was finally completed, and the power of the Ji family increased day by day.

Fei was originally a vassal state of Lu, and at the beginning of the division of Zhou Gong, each of the major marquis states had vassal states, and the vassal states did not have a direct dialogue with Zhou Tianzi, but were subject to the suzerain.

However, the vassal state of Fei was not an ancient country in the era of King Wu Cheng or even the Xia and Shang eras, but was divided after King Xuan of Zhou interfered in the internal affairs of Lu, because King Xuan of Zhou killed Lu Hou, interfered in the internal affairs of Lu, and named Lu Hou's grandson as Fei Bo, so there was such a legal principle as Fei Guo.

The fief of the Jisun clan is in Fei, and it is divided into four parts of the Lu country, the Jisun clan occupies two points, and the descendants of Qing's father and Shuya occupy the other two points, with seven thousand private soldiers, and Lu Hou cannot be controlled.

Later, more than 100 years, the power of the Jisun clan gradually weakened, Lu Hou regained power, and the contradictions between the two sides became increasingly serious, and finally adopted a compromise method, using the legal principles of Fei Bo, who had been the king of Zhou Xuan, to recognize Fei as a country rather than a yi, in exchange for Ji Sun's departure from Lu's internal affairs.

However, Fei Yi was finally recovered by the Lu State, and the Fei State of the Jisun clan was not encroached, but used the legal principles of Fei Bo at the time of King Xuan, but the fief was not in Fei, but on the land south of Wucheng, borrowing the inheritance of the name Fei Bo.

This is like a similar reason after the Chu State destroyed Chen and Cai before, and let the king of Chuping serve as the Duke of Chen and the Duke of Cai: the two countries of Chen and Cai died, but the legal principles of the Spring and Autumn Period were still there, and the prince of Chu abandoned his illness to serve as the Duke of Chen and the Duke of Cai above these two legal principles.

If the Jisun clan claims the country with its own fiefdom Feiyi, it is "encroachment".

If it is borrowed from Faber's existing legal theory, called the country, and nominally a vassal state of the Lu State, then it is not "encroachment".

At that time, the three had not yet been divided, and the Tian family had not yet been replaced, and the Zhou ritual system in the world was really not good to directly make it too publicized and violated.

At this time, the world was in chaos, and the etiquette of not having Chu Fa to follow him and just asking "I am not guilty" was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and this nominal vassal relationship had long since ceased to exist.

Nowadays, all major powers are changing the law and seeking to become stronger, but for a small country like Feiguo, there is no driving force to change the law.

For example, Qin, Chu, Zhao, and Qi changed the law, that is, the countries themselves still have the foundation, and after the change, they can compete for the world, and the monarch is still ambitious.

But it doesn't cost more than a few provinces, there are Qilu in the north, Manyue in the east, Song Mo in the west, and Jingchu in the west, and the country is small and the people are few, and the monarch has no ambition at all, and he doesn't dare to have it at all.

A rich country and a strong army? It is ten times stronger and twenty times stronger, which is not enough for Qi Chuwei to pinch with one hand.

In this situation, the nobles were really drunk and dreamed of death, and completely degenerated.

What I think about every day is the self-interest of those flies and dogs, and there is really nothing to ponder other than that.

Over the years, there are many heirs of the Jisun family, and there are many retainers back then, each of whom is divided.

If external expansion is possible, the nobles may still support the war, and there is still the so-called "martial virtue", but Feiguo's external expansion is a dream, so the normality of the nobles such as degenerate, closed, conservative, afraid of change, no overall situation, drunken life and death, and the benefit of the remnants of the people can be seen in Feiyi.

has food in hand, fiefdom in the body, food and clothing are worry-free, and they dare not coup d'état and cannot expand.

Once trapped in such a situation, such a food aristocracy is the most greedy and degenerate group, which not only loses the enterprising spirit of their ancestors, but also loses the driving force for active change.

If it is really Lu Qiang, he is pro-Lu, and the stronger he is, the more he obeys, as long as they ensure that their fiefdom does not move, anyone can be the one on top of their heads.

Therefore, when the battle of Lushui ended, Fei immediately joined the non-offensive alliance, hoping that the Mo family, who were interested in fighting the world, could ensure their survival and prevent them from being annexed by other countries.

After the Battle of Huangshui, the Mo family was worried about the interference of various countries, so they only formed a loose alliance of these small countries in Sishang, and quietly waited for changes in the world for follow-up actions.

At this time, in a large mansion in the capital of Fei Guo, a well-known sage in the capital of Fei lived here.

The name of this sage is Tian Rang, if there is no suitable appearance and change, he should have been the fourth giant of the Mo family, which is what later generations called "Tian Xiangzi", that is, the person to whom Meng Sheng passed on the position of giant son to his disciples.

But now, Tian Rangming is just a businessman who lives in Fei and is active in Sishang, Song and Weiguo.

The secret identity is a secret ink man, except for a few people in the Mo family, no one knows his secret ink man's identity.

There was a very famous dialogue between Tian Rang and Wei Jun in history, and now this dialogue is bound to no longer exist.

But the meanings revealed in these words can show some of Tian Rang's views on the world.

Wei Jun asked Yu Tian Rang and said: The widow has sealed the land for thousands of miles, and rewarded all the imperial palaces, but the scholars are not there, why not? Tian Rang said: The reward of the king cannot be meritorious! The king's punishment cannot be ignored. He still raised his staff and called the dog, and opened his bow and blessed the chicken. Although there is incense bait but cannot cause it, it will be harmful.

Wei Jun asked Tian Rang, I give people fiefs and rewards, why don't the sages of the world come?

Tian Rang said: Your Majesty, the reward you give people (all according to personal preference) cannot be obtained in the form of meritorious service. The punishment you give people (and it is all based on the words of the king) has no law or reason to rely on. It's like calling a dog and a chicken.

From the level of personality, Tian Rang felt that Wei Jun's attitude towards scholars and courtiers was like that of a man to a chicken and a dog, which was unacceptable to Tian Rang, so what thunder, rain and dew were all Jun En and the like, in Tian Rang's view, this is a personality problem - just like a raised animal, it can be very good to the animal, but it is rare to treat the animal as a human, but just as the dog will not bite the owner if it is killed, this is exactly the idea that the world does not need at this time, and it is also completely suppressing the temperament and personality of the scholar.

This kind of view of personality was a great rebellion in later generations, but it was common in the Qin and Han dynasties, and it was very popular among scholars.

It was precisely because he had such an idea before joining the Mo family, so with the spread of the Mo family's ideas such as "rewards and punishments have laws to follow, the world has reason to follow, human nature is emancipated, and there are only different rights and responsibilities between the upper and lower levels, and everyone is equal in personality", he was quickly attracted by the Mohist idea.

Just as flies are always attracted to stinky meat, or butterflies are always attracted to flowers.

Originally, he was a Song person, and he was famous in the Song Kingdom as early as possible, and he was the first to get the moon near the water, and when the Mo family made those big things, he came to Sishang as a scholar.

Similar to Chang Sangjun and his disciple Qin Yue coming to Si to be greeted by the high-level of the Mo family, his virtuous name in the Song Land also ushered in a low-key welcome from some high-level officials of the Mo family, and in the following year, he had many exchanges with him, and he joined the Mo family as a secret ink master.

Externally, he is still a sage and a businessman, traveling between countries, and doing some transshipment business, and in some places where it is inconvenient for the Mo family to come out directly, he will make contacts.

Whether it is for a country, the world, or even their respective personalities, these Mohist interpretations are in line with Tian Rang's heart, and he participates in the most magnificent cause in the world of "benefiting the world" as an identity hidden behind the Mohists in the world.

After the Mohist reform organization, the organization became more and more strict and no longer loose, and it cannot be said that you can become a Mohist by identifying with the Mohist as a private person, but only by agreeing with the Mohist morality and obeying the Mohist rules and organization can you be regarded as a real Mohist.

And now that he is in the capital of Fei Country, he naturally has his mission.
