Chapter 901: Ready to Fly
Friends, can you appreciate some recommendation tickets?
……
"Confucianism is actually good, there are many merits in the moderation of academic centers, and Confucianism itself is very enterprising."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"It's a pity, the current empire doesn't need the mean, what is needed is continuous development, development, and re-development, and the golden mean does not apply to the empire."
"Confucianism was the first to set a precedent for teaching without class, and recruited a wide range of disciples in the generation of Confucius, and there were 72 disciples and 3,000 disciples under Confucius. The origins of the disciples and disciples are quite complicated, and there are all three religions and nine streams, and it is precisely because of this that the influence is not low, and it was also widely loved among the common people at the beginning, after all, except for Confucianism, the school at that time did not spread knowledge at will. ”
"Hmm. Confucianism has made great contributions to the education of the people, and has also made considerable achievements in some ideas and philosophies, and Confucianism cannot be completely denied because of the actions of some individual people. ”
"Then this time ......"
"Be cautious, don't involve too much, and don't overturn the entire Confucian school with one stroke."
"No! Chancellor understood. ”
The empire has a Ministry of Supervision, and the Ministry of Supervision is the first to conduct internal supervision and intelligence spying, although it is impossible to say that everything is well understood, but it is impossible to say that there is any movement of Confucianism this time without spying.
Many Confucian scholars of the Confucian school were unwilling to accept that Confucianism had not achieved a greater position in the nascent empire, and many had been brewing and acting on it several years earlier.
Led by a group of officials in the center, such as Shusun Tong, Jing Ju, and Lu Jia, they have been committed to recruiting more officials to move closer to Confucianism, and some local Confucian scholars have also taken advantage of certain conveniences to influence non-governmental students, so that more students can join Confucianism.
Jing Ju is one of the Nine Qings and controls the Hongru Pavilion.
The Hongru Pavilion had many duties, such as ceremonial ceremonies and the reception of foreign envoys, as well as the right to participate in the education of the Empire, such as the Empire's hiring of teachers. Some of the questions and assessments of the empire's private recruitment of teachers can be intervened in by the Hongru Museum.
Shusun Tong has a deep knowledge of etiquette, and most of the etiquette norms of the imperial officials are from his handwriting, such as the color of the court clothes of civil and military officials. In addition, he also determines what kind of etiquette needs to be used on what occasions, so although he is only a doctor in the Empire, he has no influence on some aspects.
Lu Jia's status is higher than that of Shusun Tong in some aspects. He was also a doctor of the empire in the early days, and later joined the Hongru Pavilion, and successively sent many princes and foreign forces, because of his ability to speak and have good achievements in diplomatic careers, such as the Central Plains War launched by the empire. He managed to get seven cities to fall without a fight. At present, he was transferred to the front line, and he was the first Confucian in the Tusheng to serve in the military during the imperial period.
The three of them have been in the center for a long time, and because of their duties, they are more or less able to meet with Lu Zhe often. It is not that they did not take the opportunity to see Lu Zhe from time to time to promote some Confucian ideas, such as Confucian students can account for sixty percent of the imperial education, except for many Confucian students competing for energy, who can say that there is no great credit to them?
It cannot be said that Confucianism did not develop in the nascent empire, and if it is said that only a few Confucian students were able to climb to the center as officials in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the number of Confucian students among the officials in the center of the nascent empire is not small. It can even be said to be the most ever one.
What was Confucianism like during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period? Even if Kong Qiu had power in the Lu State, he soon buried the root of the country's demise because of his own operation and governance. The so-called bane has its background and corresponding development process.
"Confucius doesn't make a good impression, does it?"
"This ...... It can only be said that the Confucian concept of governing the country at that time did not fit the trend of the times? ”
"Hmm......? Yes. ”
“…… It was also Confucius who traveled around the world to seek officials. The kings of the nations only dared to be polite but did not dare to appoint, which made Confucius's reputation in some experiences poor, and it cannot be said that his ideas were useless. ”
"In the world of great contention, it is about progress and struggle. In that era, everything was about survival, but if you don't do your best to become stronger, where will survival come from. ”
"yes. In the world of great controversy, some of Confucius's ideas were not accepted, and there was a background of the times. ”
It was Xiao He who was talking to Lu Zhe, and there were also many people next to them, such as Sima Xin, Meng Tian, and Ji Bu...... And so on and so forth.
If some Confucian students did not put their actions into practice, it was not good for Lu Zhe to make some things that did not happen public, but what was happening in the corridor at the entrance of the city tower had already been revealed, which was a signal that some Confucian students wanted to put the brewing things into action, and there would be nothing for the civil and military ministers to understand.
Sima Xin's face was full of frost, and his tone was gloomy: "Do they really want to do that?" ”
Yan Bi replied: "Yes, they really want to do that. He smiled a rather weirdly: "One of them is the one who came to snitch, otherwise we wouldn't have been so well aware of what they were going to do." ”
"On the day of the great ceremony, the knighthood of my generation of martial artists and many meritorious people is about to be crowned......" Sima Xin himself is also a person who has a good impression of Confucianism, but this time some people in Confucianism are really ......, so he is so gloomy that his face is about to drip water: "The glorious moment of so many people, how dare they!" ”
"Confucianism, hum, some people in Confucianism, they are crazy!" Ji Bu gritted his teeth, with a kind of anger that he tried to endure patiently: "Why does Confucianism always do some ridiculous things at inappropriate times? Aren't the lessons of the previous examples enough? ”
There was not a single person present who knew what some Confucian students would do, and they were not angry in their hearts.
Lu Zhe does not have many immediate family members, so there are actually very few family backgrounds and relatives. But not having a family background and many relatives to help you is both a good thing and a bad thing.
The good thing is that the lonely family can come up with more resources to reward the meritorious, and there will be no entanglement caused by the huge family, and there will be no obstacles to some capable people from ascending because of the large number of relatives, so that the group of people who follow are dissatisfied because most of the interests are taken up by the family.
Of course, the bad thing is that there is no natural or blood-related intimate person who can help, and there are often fears in some things, for fear that letting someone sit big will affect their own status, or even be usurped and betrayed.
Lu Zhe has struggled all the way, and his success is due to chance and good luck. However. What's more is that he knows how to make trade-offs in interests, and he also understands the balance of His Majesty, and various schools have also been working on balance, but obviously the effect is not good.
In fact, Lu Zhe did not embark on an absolute centralized system, thanks to the fact that he did not have too many relatives, if he had many relatives, the family members would inevitably try their best to meddle in the affairs of the country, and the power of the state would be relatively concentrated in the family.
It is precisely because Lu Zhe does not have a huge family, he wants to have more opportunities to rise to the throne in the nascent empire, and the competition is relatively fair, and everyone who was knighted this time has done something that is obvious to all. They really can't stand someone coming out to make trouble when they're about to be knighted.
"Hehehe, so many vassal states have been killed by tossing, and it would be a disaster if the empire let Confucianism raise its head!"
"That's it! A bunch of guys who can only talk and have no actual hands-on ability, what their patriarch didn't do, I want to repeat it again! ”
"You can't say that, can you? It's just that some people's brains are muddy, and there are still some rational people. ”
"No matter what, if those bastards disrupt today's ritual, Lao Tzu will be finished with them!"
Black history, who doesn't have some? It's just that there will always be a school of thought that is particularly targeted in a certain period. When something happens, it will be unraveled in history.
The Lu State in the Spring and Autumn Period was not a big country, in the early days, it was a second- and third-rate vassal state that followed the Jin State and relied on the protection of the Jin State, if it was not for the protection of the Jin State, it would have been destroyed by the Qi State long ago. Facts also proved that without the protection of the Jin State, the Lu State was quickly destroyed. It was wiped out by the Qi State not long after the three families were divided.
There are three constants in the Lu country, and the three constants are all from the line of the monarch of the Lu country, but when it comes to the royal family of the Lu Ai princess, the royal family has been weakened, and the national situation of the Lu country is the situation of the three constants.
Confucius's rise to power was accompanied by the need for the monarch of the Lu State to suppress the three constants. At the beginning of his coming to power, he did not target Sanheng, but only wanted to govern the country into a ceremonial state where everyone understands etiquette, knows etiquette, and acts with etiquette, even if it touches Sanheng's interests. It is also very small.
It doesn't matter whether Confucius governed the state of Lu as a ceremonial state, the important thing is that the monarch of the state of Lu supported him to come to power in order to take back some of the power that belonged to the monarch from Sanheng, if Confucius did not suppress the monarch of the state of Sanheng, there would be no need to support him.
Confucius's ruling process in the state of Lu is not a change of law, but also a reform, and he wants to govern the state of Lu into an ideal township, which belongs to a kind of "utopian" ideal country pursued by Confucianism. Let's not talk about whether there is an ideal country in the world, a country where everyone understands etiquette, knows etiquette, and acts with etiquette is actually not seen as a national need, but whether the times can allow such a country to exist.
Later, Confucius may have been under pressure from Ji Jiang, or he may have thought that "in a country, the minister must not be stronger than the king, otherwise the country will not be a country", and gradually turned his energy to everything against Sanheng.
I can't say whether Confucius's idea was wrong, but in the Spring and Autumn Period, the pattern of strong ministers and weak monarchs was not one or two, and even the Jin State, the most powerful country in the "world", was not also a situation in which the lords of all parties were strong and the monarchs were weak? However, the Jin State, which is strong and weak, has maintained this pattern for one or two hundred years, and the Jin State is still the strongest among the vassal states. So, there is never a definite absolute.
Sanheng comes from the royal family, and naturally hopes that Confucius's coming to power can make Lu Guo strong, so in the early days of Confucius's power, Sanheng has been patient, and the result of patience is that Sanheng's fiefdom city was forced by Confucius to demolish the city wall, but after the city wall was demolished, Qi immediately raised troops to attack, and the city that lost the city wall as a support almost did not resist for a long time and fell immediately......
Because Confucius's continuous suppression of Sanheng caused chaos in the national situation of the Lu State, this was when the Qi army raised troops to attack, and the chaos of the national situation in the Lu State coupled with Sanheng's deliberate actions, Confucius's fate can be imagined. At that time, the public opinion was that Confucius tossed the second-rate Lu State enough to attract the Qi State to invade, in fact, such a statement is slightly unfair, but the situation of the Lu State was chaotic, and it is a fact that the Lu State was lost everywhere after the Qi army raised troops to invade, and as a result, Confucius not only stepped down and was expelled from the country, but also had a stain on his reputation.
The past is gone, the common saying is "nothing is set in stone", there is a pejorative saying called "the scar forgets the pain", and the many people who have been stirred up in anger on a good day, they glance sharply at some people, so that those who are ready to move are like a sharp edge.
Somewhere on the wall section, several people gathered together to talk to each other.
"What to do? The king and they seem to have noticed something, do they want to take action? ”
"It's ready to fly, do it!"
"So...... All right! ”
"Up!"
With a ""up", some people who were supposed to stay in place to watch the ceremony stepped forward, and they walked extremely fast, heading directly towards Lu Zhe's location, but were stopped by the armor on the way.
An official in a green robe shouted: "Your Majesty, Weichen, etc., there is something to do!" ”
Many people immediately said "start" in their hearts, and then looked at the group of people who wanted to break through the armor guard.
"Let them come?" Xiao He's face was full of worry.
Lu Zhe couldn't see joy or anger on his face: "What should happen will always happen, let them come over." ”
The armor was released, and the Confucian scholars in official robes walked in the front, followed by some folk Confucian scholars, who came to Lu Zhe not far away, and shouted, "See the king!" In the greeting, they all opened their clothes and bowed.
In fact, until the Ming generation, it was not necessary to kneel to meet the king, and only on some special occasions did it need to kneel and bow. Today's occasion is solemn and special, but it is obviously not necessary to bow down to the king during non-ceremonial periods, and it can only be said that the Confucian scholars who have to bow down to the king every time they meet the king are a special case in this era.
"Ministers, gentlemen," Lu Zhe was laughing, and his smile was still relatively gentle: "Today is a big day, do you have to start now?" He is prompting, and finally giving these people a chance.
"This ......"
Some of the Confucian scholars who stood up one after another hesitated and some were firm, and the green-robed civil official who shouted at the beginning saluted again, and then said: "Throughout the ages, there has never been a single force that can make a country prosperous, but it has been seen that excessive force has led to constant wars. In the past, there were vassals and lords who were too big, and the military was also out of control, so that it was as strong as the Jin Kingdom. Later, the tyrannical Qin paid too much attention to the use of force and lost its national ......" (to be continued......
