Chapter 368: You let Kong Meng, I let Jun Father
The Catholic Tao advocated by Yinghua is often mentioned in the "Baicheng Journal", such as the Harmony of Heaven and Man, Tianyan Capital, Astronomical Calendar, and various kinds of Gewuxue, but they are all scattered and unsystematic. It is easy to speak for the heavens, but the words are vague, which is also the reason why traditional scholars show disdain when they hear the Word of God, and associate it with Taoism, Buddhism, gods and ghosts.
Today, Li Xi is speaking in Taiwan and the Catholic Path, and thousands of people below are secretly saying that the drama is coming, and the battle of words in the past two and March months, Li Xi is going to end here, just like the "Wenfu" promoted by Yinghua. Many people hurriedly took out their hard notebooks and prepared to record them on the spot, and they were all the chief writers or "informants" who wrote articles for various newspapers.
Most of them think that Li Xi should have opened the way for his teacher Duan Hongshi's "truth studies" here, and thus laid the foundation for Yinghua Chinese studies. Thinking that most of the Confucianism of Confucius and Mencius is to be trampled underfoot, and the heart is sad and hesitant, and he has read Confucius and Mencius all his life.
Li Shi opened his mouth but said: "The song and dance of the three clans just now, do you think it is beautiful?" ”
Now there are still afterimages in the pupils, and the aftermath is lingering, it would be too contrary to their hearts to say that it is not beautiful, and everyone has raised their voices and said: "Beauty-!" ”
Then Li Xi asked: "Then you say, these three clans are my Chinese compatriots?" ”
Everyone did not respond to this question immediately, Miao Yao and the other tribes are the same Chinese people as the Han people, there is no doubt about this, they are all thinking about whether the Kham Tibetans are counted. If you think about it carefully, during the Tang Dynasty, Tubo worshiped Tang Taizong as the heavenly khan, and it can be regarded as a tributary vassal. There was a difference in the Song Dynasty, and the Xuanzheng Yuan was set up in the Yuan Dynasty, and the Tibetans were under the rule of China. According to the theory of Yinghua, the Yuan is not considered to be the Zhengshuo of China, but in the Ming Dynasty, Wusizang and Duoganwei both commanded the envoys, and also named the great teachers and Dharma kings of Lamaism, whether it is politics or religion, the Tibetans have been under the rule of Huaxia.
After a moment of silence, the clear lifters shouted, "Yes! ”
Li Xi nodded and began to get to the point: "Huawei is beautiful, summer is great, my China has lasted for thousands of years, Zhuo Ran is proud, Yu Yang Guangze, you can see it from these three clans." ”
Even Duan Yuyou and Zheng Xie are nodding, this is the south, and it is Guangzhou, even if they are nerds, they know that the world is big, and there is no one in China, and there is a lot less arrogant thinking of "ignorance and barbarians outside of China". But it is also a little eye-opening, looking at China itself, and another kind of pride, looking at the land outside the sea like a tide, although China changed the dynasty in two or three hundred years, and suffered from the five chaos of China and the death of the Mongolian people, but the inheritance has not been broken after all.
Then Li Xian said: "And where did this Huaxia come from? ”
The lifters are almost about to blurt out, so how else can it come about? Huaxia is the state of etiquette, this etiquette is the way of Confucius and Mencius, Huaxia because of the way of Confucius and Mencius and the inner and outer kings, naturally the four seas of the guests, Yidi also because of the education and into China, this is our Lang China. All in all, this is the power of the Dao system.
But when it came to their mouths, they felt that this was too far-fetched, they were not the kind of talents who only read the four books and five classics, they all had a certain amount of knowledge, at least they were familiar with history. Thinking about it again, today's Huaxia is based on the territory theory, which has been basically determined as early as the third generation, and the Qin and Han dynasties have been finalized, and the so-called "Taoism" at that time is still in Dong Zhongshu's hands.
Li Shi said the history that everyone is familiar with: "The ancients hid in the cave and suffered from the wind and rain. There are sages who build nests, and all the kings have nests, and the name is Chao. The ancients also drank blood, and there were sages who drilled wood to make fire, and the kings of the people were named Suiren. Then there is Fuxi to make words, Shennong tastes a hundred herbs, Dayu controls the water, everyone is a king, and later generations will regard it as a holy ......"
Li Shi raised his voice: "Later generations will praise the three generations, thinking that they are virtuous, virtuous, and folk music, why is this?" That's because from ancient times to three generations, my state of China has sought the well-being of all people! What you ask for is what you hold, and the benevolence of the sages of Confucius and Mencius! ”
The events from ancient times to the three generations are legends, and there is no way to argue about the details, but what Li Xian said is indeed a truth recognized by the sages of the past dynasties, and the lifters have to nod their heads.
This is not a debate, if you want to discuss the war of words, the people present are all relying on the way of Confucius and Mencius, relying on the logical self-consistency of science to eat, Li Xi is not necessarily the opponent of the best among them, he did not make any more discussions, but went straight to his proposition.
"I, Li Xianli Yinghua, have already said, this country is open for all people, and this country is also for the well-being of all people, not to mention Confucius and Menglaozhuang, Yang Zhu Mozhai, and not to mention my Li Xi and Er, this wish should be the heart [***]."
This is the basic consensus of connectivity, the lifters nodded silently, Lao Zhuang doesn't care, Yang Zhu Mozhai is the sworn enemy of Confucius and Mencius Avenue, to stand with them, very unwilling, but just say what everyone wants, this point is difficult to deny, no matter what the way each family has, the road is not correct, at least the end is one.
Li Shi mentioned his Divine Avenue: "It is said in the Yinghua Liguo Essay that man stands in heaven and earth, what is the avenue he inherits? That is, mutual peace and mutual benefit, and common well-being. Under this way, there is the theory of practice, the words of Confucius and Mencius that you have learned, and the reason of Cheng Zhu are higher than this way? Isn't it a detailed discussion of the practice of this way? ”
The lifters were silent, of course, but they were reluctant to speak publicly.
Li Xi said again: "It was said earlier that the way of Confucius and Mencius is based on the bloodline patriarchy, and the bloodline of father and son, husband and wife, and brother is extended to a country. However, the Song and Ming dynasties have a theory, this is the ancient Confucianism, ancient times and even three generations, are feudal countries, and then the first emperor, turned into counties, this foundation has long changed. Confucius and Mencius said, if there is no Dong Zhongshu and others who are newly created as officials and Confucians, how can they raise the banner of the inner saint and the outer king and practice the government of the Confucian family? ”
This is a heart-wrenching statement, but the foundation of external Confucianism and internal law, those who have read the book thoroughly have to admit it.
Seeing that Li Xi was going to use the way of Confucius and Mencius to step on the Confucianism family, Zheng Xie stepped forward.
"It is precisely the king's disobedience to the way of heaven, the use of imperial power and evil laws to fulfill his selfish desires, and clamp people's hearts, so that benevolence and righteousness do not work, and the world is a rebellion of beasts and cannibalism. If the kings of the past dynasties were based on benevolence and sincerely cultivated virtue, how could I continue to have disasters in China!? ”
This refutation is an old routine, it's not that I can't do the way of Confucius and Mencius, but that no one really does it.
Li Xian smiled: "You also regard the Legalists as evil? ”
Zheng Xie led the crowd and said aloud: "Yes! ”
Confucianism talks about morality, but of course it is reluctant to admit that Legalism is an old partner, at least on the surface. For those who have not yet entered the ranks, the roots of the Legalist system are not in their Confucianism, but from the imperial power, from the court, from the court and the government. That is the selfish desire of power, and it is the erosion of Confucius and Mengdao by the evil demon of power and money.
Li Shi shook his head: "But a country must have a law in the end, well, you will say that this law is not a law, so should the army of a country practice legalism, or should it practice the way of Confucius and Mencius?" ”
Seeing that the lifters were silent, Li Xi continued: "Confucius and Meng are ashamed of Yang Zhu, so should the circulation of goods be based on abacus or morality? You are all well-educated people, so you don't have to talk about the distinction between righteousness and benefit alone, right? ”
Then Li Shi said: "What kind of way does the Yingci Hospital rely on to treat the injured and sick? In the eyes of the doctor, everyone is the same, isn't this the way of Mo Zhai? And the craftsman creates things, according to the principle of things, what kind of way is this? It's the way of heaven! If there was no Chao Clan, Suiren Clan, Fuxi and Shennong Dipping Silver in ancient times, I would still be drinking blood and spitting beast words!? ”
There is a man who said unwillingly: "The ancient sages asked for the people to be warm and peaceful, and no matter how much, the sage said, full of warmth and silver desire, then the craftsman's thing, why is it not a miracle skill?" ”
Li Xian sneered: "Are you here to take the exam?" ”
The man shook his head repeatedly.
Li Xi asked: "Now that you are full, why don't you pass on the family lineage and come to take the exam to do something?" ”
The man was stunned, held back for a while, and said with a red face: "The student is not a pig!" Students have the world in mind, and what they seek is to show what they have learned and benefit the people! ”
Without waiting for Li Shi to speak, the others laughed, you are not a pig, so should you treat others as pigs? If you have high-sounding ideals, others can't be careful and want to live a better life?
After this little episode, Li Xi concluded: "The avenue that God has given to people, even if it is a saint, is difficult to cover it all. You must be thinking, this Anglo-Chinese country, the way of God to do is to rebuke Confucius and Meng, and rejuvenate Yang Zhu, this is a big mistake! The Avenue of God traveled by Yinghua accommodates Confucius, Meng, Yang Zhu, and Lao Zhuang Mo Zhai, which is the corresponding avenue of heaven and man......"
Li Shi raised his palm to the sky: "The Avenue of God, this one of the heavens, is the heavens!" We have a god on our heads! Heaven distinguishes between good and evil, and God talks about merit and sin! ”
This is the consensus of the Chinese people, as the saying goes, there are gods in the head, from the scholars to the people, they all know like this. And this is also like Dong Zhongshu's respect for Confucianism, putting God in the supreme position of dominating the world, and the sons nodded silently.
"There is a great way in heaven, not only for people, but also for all things. And this way, mortals of my generation can only pursue it for a long time, but they can hold on to one vein and get one scale, but no one can do this way. ”
This is the Taoist saying, and the lifters thought to themselves, this is to drive the way of Confucius and Mencius off the altar. But on another thought, what is the article of the hidden sense, what about the king? If the heavens are established, and then no one has authority, where does the power of the king come from?
Then Li Shi turned his palm and pointed at himself.
"This way is related to people, there is the way of blood, the way of learning, the way of industry and commerce, the way of military and political, the way of the road, how can we help each other? There has to be another one, to reconcile yin and yang, to arbitrate black and white, to eliminate the harm of each way, and to promote the benefits of each way. This is the king's way, and I'm ...... Hold this way and govern the country, hold this way and rule the world. ”
There was silence for a while, and the lifters were in an uproar, Li Shi's argument contained too much content, but the lifters understood two first.
First, Li Xi did not want to abolish the way of Confucius and Mencius, but only wanted this way to go down from the position of governance.
Second, the "king" mentioned by Li Shi is a person who mediates and mediates, and is no longer a saint who rules everything.
Zheng Xie's eyes widened, and he lost his voice: "Since then, there has been no monarch father!?" ”
Li Xian nodded with a smile, that is for sure, if the Confucianism of Confucius and Mencius is driven down, the emperor will no longer be able to become a "teacher in the world" and "a perfect person in the world", let alone become the patriarch of the people in the world and become a "monarch father" according to the principle of Confucian bloodline and patriarchy.
"This guy, he still treats things as a business, he wants Confucius and Mencius to no longer be in charge of the country, and he will also hand over his father, isn't this a deal?"
Duan Yu felt something in his heart, and thought with great emotion.
