132 Extremely reluctant compromise (to come)
"The impact of the increase in productivity on social change is extremely huge, and after entering the era of industrialization, with the great liberation of productive forces, the speed of change and development in the world is particularly rapid......" Feng Xu closed his eyes slightly, listening to Ren Yugang reciting the latest learning materials of the People's Party in a calm tone.
As a minister, Feng Xu was not quite able to take the People's Party's program as his own pursuit, but only admired Chen Ke, the leader of the People's Party. But as a great Confucian, this person's view of the world is still quite close to reality. I was about to continue listening, but Ren Yugang's voice stopped. Without urging Ren Yugang, Feng Xu just leaned back in a more comfortable posture and really began to close his eyes and recuperate.
"Mr. Feng, what does Chairman Chen mean by this?" Ren Yugang asked very seriously. In fact, according to the rules of the old era, there was no need for Ren Yugang to be so polite to Feng Xu. His daughter Ren Qiying is now "guiwei" director of the Anhui Provincial General Office of the People's Party, and Feng Xu is only a political envoy in Anhui, and his status is only a little worse than Ren Qiying. The so-called "mother is more expensive than her son" is far-fetched to say, and "father is expensive by daughter" is not completely unreasonable. It's just that Ren Yugang naturally doesn't have this kind of stupid idea, because in the old era, Ren Qiying Mo said that he was in a high position, and even the test of fame was forbidden.
Ren Yugang also thinks that he is a true Confucian believer, he and Feng Xu are colleagues, and Feng Xu also used to be an official in Fengyang Mansion, so the relationship between the two became close.
"Chairman Chen has made it very clear that he wants the working people to be the masters of their own affairs." Although Feng Xu closed his eyes, he replied very decisively.
"But where are the people and the working people?" Ren Yugang himself loves labor, so he asked directly about the point.
Feng Xu opened his eyes, "I think in Chairman Chen's view, this working people are gentlemen, and the people are probably villains. That's why he repeatedly emphasized the idea of the ruling class. ”
The core concept of Confucianism is the concept of hierarchy, "If you can't be courteous to a commoner, you can't punish a doctor." This is the core idea of Confucianism, but the rulers of China in the past dynasties were not easy to fool, so there was the implementation of "external Confucianism and internal law". So the ruling class is not a conflicting idea of Confucianism. Confucianism, on the other hand, believes that the one who holds the authority should be the "gentleman". "The people can make it impossible to know it", then the ruled class is naturally a villain.
Ren Yugang frowned, although he thought that this explanation was quite reasonable, but as the document said, society and times are changing, if it were not for the great changes of this era, who would have imagined that a girl who does not rely on blood, does not rely on her husband's family, can now completely rely on herself to stand above everyone. Although Ren Yugang is uneasy about such a change, as a beneficiary, he does not want to oppose it.
"However, Chairman Chen is passionate about education and is committed to education. The words he used were science and democracy. Feng Xu continued to explain, "Learn science, understand science, and use science. This is in line with the trend of the times. We, as educators, are going to get that done now. ”
"What about democracy?" Ren Yugang asked.
"Democracy depends on democracy within the ruling class or democracy in China as a whole. In my opinion, Chairman Chen will never engage in any electoral democracy. The constitution makes it clear that since China is led by the People's Party, it is naturally the People's Party that is in charge of the world. Do you see Chairman Chen's description of the dictatorship of the proletariat when he discusses the dictatorship of the proletariat is completely the standard of a gentleman? Feng Xu's voice was quite relieved when he said this. Although Chen Ke only said that he was half of Xunzi's disciple, even if Xunzi no longer had any status in the Qing Dynasty, Xunzi was also a self-proclaimed Confucian after all. The most important thing is that Chen Ke did not express the intention of completely overthrowing Confucianism, which made Feng Xu more happy.
When Ren Yu first saw Chen Ke discussing the proletariat, he also had the same feelings as Feng Xu. But he wrote to his daughter Ren Qiying in private, and the answer he got surprised Ren Yugang. After listening to Feng Xu's evaluation, Ren Yugang felt that Feng Xu was a little taken for granted. After sorting out his thoughts, Ren Yugang said: "Although a gentleman has the feelings of serving the world and the public good, Chairman Chen specifically emphasized that the social background of the dictatorship of the proletariat in the new era is socialized large-scale production, and this socialized large-scale production itself pays attention to social equality. If there is no equality in this society, it is still Confucianism, and I think it is not quite right to compare the proletariat with a gentleman. ”
Feng Xu slowly stated his point of view: "We talk about physical use, and Confucianism comes from Confucius, but don't say that now, that is, after Qin, if the princes can still fight against the Son of Heaven, it will be a troubled era." So who is in power, this is the body. But the key to our Confucianism is this. Whether it is the truth in this world or the things, if it is useless, let alone two thousand years, I am afraid that it will not last for two days. Chairman Chen talked about social change, and this is the right reason. My teacher once said that if you take the Analects as a truth, then it is better not to read the Analects. The Analects are all usable things. Later generations of Confucianism only knew a few words, read a few books, and could write a rank, so they held up this tablet and regarded themselves as disciples of Confucius. The difficulties of my Confucianism all started from this. ”
Although Ren Yugang is reading Confucian books, the teacher is an ordinary talent, and compared with characters like Feng Xu, he is still much inferior in terms of education.
"Mr. Feng, you see what Chairman Chen said, but where is it used?"
"Yugang, the ruling class is very different from the rulers. Rulers come from the ruling class, but not everyone in the ruling class can become rulers. In all dynasties, there are many gentlemen who can be called gentlemen, but most of these gentlemen can't be officials, just like Yugang, you can be an official, but you don't want to. Chairman Chen is still young, and he hopes that all the people in the world can become the ruling class, or at least the working people. After all, now that the republic is republic, Chairman Chen will not be the emperor, and he will not have the selfishness of one family and one surname, which is right from the perspective of public heart. I think Chairman Chen hopes to use this era of great change to change the world. ”
Ren Yugang originally admired Feng Xu very much, but now he admires it even more. If the times hadn't changed, the Ren family wouldn't have changed much today. Many people see strange phenomena in these times of drastic change, and feel great unease. Only those who can see the world can see the opportunities it contains. This is perhaps the perspective of the ruling class.
"Then Mr. Feng wants to revive Confucianism in this era?" Ren Yugang asked.
"It's impossible." Feng Xu replied neatly, "What Chairman Chen is doing now is to erect what he is advocating, and I am trying to take the opportunity to revive Confucianism...... Hehe, isn't this a mantis arm as a car? ”
Ren Yugang was deeply moved by Feng Xu's words, if Feng Xu really had the lofty ambition of "reviving Confucianism", Ren Yugang would naturally not be stupid enough to do such a stupid thing with Feng Xu, he was determined to draw a line with Feng Xu.
"Since Confucius, Confucianism has never become a body, but whenever Confucianism gains power, it is in this word. Yugang, if we are Confucian. The usefulness of Confucianism should be explained thoroughly. Since Confucius, Confucianism has served the ruling class, and now we should continue to serve the ruling class. This is what Chairman Chen said, class consciousness. ”
Listening to Feng Xu's words, Ren Yugang was already dumbfounded. This is really the truth, and it is also the words that can only be said by those who really read the books of the sages. It's just that if these words are heard by the corrupt people, they will definitely be scolded as deviant.
"I have a plan, Chairman Chen has written the book "Chinese Cultural Inheritance and the Rise of Materialism", but there are many errors in this book, most of the examples cited are far-fetched, and I don't have any intention of being an official. Feng Xu asked.
This voice was not loud, but it was like thunder in Ren Yugang's ears. A book that has been famous for thousands of years, and Chen Ke's reputation back then was born from this book. Feng Xu is already the compiler of the "Xinhua Dictionary", and at present, it is only a matter of time before the People's Party takes over the world, and Feng Xu can leave his name in the academic circles by relying solely on the merit of compiling the first edition of the "Xinhua Dictionary". If Chen Ke's book "The Inheritance of Chinese Culture and the Rise of Materialism" can be revised, then Feng Xu's feelings for Confucianism and his evaluation of Confucianism will certainly be able to rely on this book to be widely circulated.
Of course, this is not without risk, Confucianism is best at Spring and Autumn brushwork, and Feng Xu will never add his own ideas to this book. Whether it is written well or not, whether it praises Chen Ke or not, this is still secondary. As long as Chen Ke thinks that there is the slightest idea in this book that goes against Chen Ke's original meaning, Feng Xu's fate is no longer miserable.
The Manchu Qing Dynasty has officially collapsed this year, and the history of the Manchu Qing Dynasty is a history of the literary prison. The "History of the Ming Dynasty" case in the early Qing Dynasty, and later Fang Jing and other cases, the Qianlong period was a literary prison, and the family was destroyed at every turn, these bloody histories are lessons from the past, Feng Xu is 69 this year, and he is 71 years old. Of course he is not afraid of death, and Ren Yugang himself doesn't care too much about death. But what he cares about is the fate of his family and the future of his daughter.
I wanted to refuse in my mind, but Ren Yugang couldn't say this. The temptation to be able to write a book and speak, especially to write a book based on Chen Ke's fame, is so great that it is by no means completely dispelled by facing life and death.
Faced with a dilemma, Ren Yugang heard Feng Xu say, "I will write to Chairman Chen to inquire about this matter." If he agrees, we'll start writing. If he does not agree, it is not appropriate for this book to be written by Chairman Chen, and we have revised it ourselves. ”
"That's great!" Ren Yugang immediately replied, the weather was very hot, Ren Yugang found that his back was completely soaked at some point, and sweat was completely uncontrollable from his forehead, head and neck, and from every sweat pores.
When Chen Ke received this letter, he was discussing with his comrades the specific content of this great rectification. Rectification is not a precept, and any organization has its own organizational credibility. The process of building credibility depends entirely on the officer, and the act of admonishing is completely depleting the credibility of the organization. The more admonitions, the lower the credibility. As the 21st century joke goes, "If an apology is useful, what do you want the police to do?" ”
After receiving Feng Xu's letter, Chen Ke didn't understand what Feng Xu wanted to do for a while. There is a lot of copying of articles in the world, and Chen Ke's book was originally a plagiarism of the knowledge he learned in his original time and space, but Chen Ke was the first to write a new perspective on Chinese history in this era, so it can make people feel refreshing. As for the specific content of the book, it is not commensurate with the evaluation it has received.
But this matter is by no means a simple question of "whether it can be adapted" to the work, once this matter really starts to be done, many things will be out of Chen Ke's control. Since this is not Chen Ke's private matter, he can only take it out for everyone to discuss.
The comrades' opinion was strikingly unanimous, "This is absolutely not possible." ”
"Chairman Chen, at this time, your thinking has not yet become the party's ideology theoretically, and Feng Xu's approach is to set up another door." Shang Yuan's answer was categorical.
Seeing Chen Ke's somewhat hesitant expression, Shang Yuan then persuaded: "You are the chairman of the People's Party, and your book is the book of our People's Party." No matter how many mistakes there are in that book, this is not something Feng Xu is qualified to revise. ”
But this freedom of speech is in the Constitution, and Feng Xu has his own freedom of speech. He really changed it privately, and not only could we not stop him from doing so, but we also had to ensure that Feng Xu's personal rights were not violated within the scope of application of the Constitution. Chen Ke replied. In terms of freedom of speech, Chen Ke himself is absolutely supportive. Of course, Chen's support is very different from the freedom of speech of later JY, who believes that freedom of expression is indeed an inalienable right, but this right does not have the status of freedom above the law. For example, in the United States, you can say the wrong thing, but if you say the wrong thing, you have to go to jail. What the Constitution guarantees is the right to allow people to speak freely, and this power applies to the time period when they speak freely. With that said, the guarantee of freedom of speech is over. The latter has nothing to do with freedom of speech.
In Europe, it is illegal for you to propagate the Nazi system. But to determine whether it is illegal, the facts must first be clear, if a person shouts in his heart long live the mustache, long live the Third Reich. This must not be used as evidence of a crime. He can only be convicted if he has actually spoken out. The very act of speech should be protected by "freedom of speech".
And Chen Ke looks down on JY because they dare not do it. Chen Ke's education since childhood contains elements of liberalism, such as
