Just when Shanhai City was preparing for the contention conference, Xianyang City issued the [Confucianism Order]. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Qin Shi Huang announced that Xianyang City had the exclusive legal system, and all Confucian scholars must leave Xianyang City within three days, otherwise they would be arrested and imprisoned.

As soon as the news came out, the world was in an uproar.

The [Confucianism Order] promulgated by Qin Shi Huang pushed the Confucianism controversy to a peak.

The Confucian students in the world are angry.

From the [Expulsion Order], it has to be reminiscent of the famous "Book Burning Pit Confucianism" in history. First of all, it should be noted that book burning and Confucianism are two things that happened at different points in time.

Everything has to start with Qin Shi Huang's unification of the six countries.

After dominating the world, the political and economic reforms implemented by Qin Shi Huang were not all smooth sailing. At the beginning of the reunification, there was a debate over whether to divide the princes as kings.

A group of officials led by Prime Minister Wang Juan asked Qin Shi Huang to divide his sons into kings in the hometowns of Yan, Qi, and Chu, which had not long been occupied, believing that this would help consolidate Qin's rule.

However, Tingwei Li Si insisted on opposing it, believing that the reason for the disputes among the princes of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period was entirely the result of the Western Zhou Dynasty's feudal system. Only by abolishing the feudal system can we avoid the trouble.

Qin Shi Huang adopted Li Si's opinion, believing that to establish a feudal state was to create enemy soldiers.

As a result, the county system was established throughout the country.

Eight years later, in the thirty-fourth year of the First Emperor, at the palace banquet held by Qin Shi Huang in Xianyang Palace, there was another debate about whether to teach the ancient or the present.

This is what led to the burning of books.

At the banquet, the servant shot Zhou Qingchen to face Qin Shi Huang and praised Qin Shi Huang, which was inferior to His Majesty's virtue since ancient times. In response to Zhou Qingchen's remarks, Dr. Chun Yuyue put forward the idea of restoring the sub-feudal system.

Chun Yuyue said: "The minister heard that the king of Yin Zhou was more than 1,000 years old, and he was a meritorious man of his son, and he was an auxiliary branch. Now His Majesty has the sea, and the children are the husbands, and the ministers of Tian Chang and Liuqing are dead, and there is no help, how can they save each other? Those who can last for a long time without learning from the past are unheard of. Today, the young minister is blushing again, and he is not a loyal minister. ”

Qin Shi Huang remained silent after hearing this, and handed over Chun Yuyue's suggestion to the ministers for discussion.

Prime Minister Li Si made it clear that he did not agree with Chun Yuyue's point of view, and retorted: "The dispute between the three generations, how can it be lawful." If it is not prohibited, the main power will be lowered to the top, the party will become the bottom, and the unity may be destroyed. ”

Qin Shi Huang adopted Li Si's suggestion and ordered the burning of the historical records of the nations other than the "Records of the Qin", and handed over and burned the books of folk medicine divination and the private collection of "poems" and "books" that did not belong to the doctor's museum.

There are those who dare to talk about the execution of "poems" and "books", and the extermination of the race in the past and not in the present; Private study is forbidden, and those who want to learn the laws and regulations must be taught by officials.

This is called "book burning".

In the second year of the book burning, there was another incident.

The pit of Confucianism was not a direct continuation of the book burning, but was caused by some scholars and Confucian scholars slandering Qin Shi Huang. After Qin Shi Huang seized great power and enjoyed the glory and wealth, he was very afraid of death. After unifying the world, he whimsically sought the elixir of immortality.

Fang Shi Hou Sheng, Lu Sheng and others catered to their needs and promised to find this medicine for Qin Shi Huang. According to Qin law, those who fail to honor their lies, or whose medicines are invalid, shall be punished with death.

Hou Sheng and Lu Sheng knew that they couldn't get the elixir of immortality, so they not only fled, but also slandered Qin Shi Huang for being stubborn by nature, serving as a full-time prison official, and that no matter how big or small things were decided by him, he was greedy for power, and so on.

Fang Shi also said that immortality cannot be cultivated by Qin Shi Huang, and immortality cannot be achieved by a small elixir. They approached the First Emperor, not only to refine medicine and seek pills, but to preach the "Tao Sutra" to the world.

When Qin Shi Huang found out, he became angry and thought that the monks were playing tricks on him.

So he burned the "Tao Sutra" first, and then pit the monks.

Qin Shi Huang ordered an investigation in the capital on the charge of "evil words to chaos in the capital", and personally circled more than 460 people and buried them alive in Xianyang.

This is called "Confucianism", and the pit is not Confucianism, but Fangshi.

The essence of "burning books and pit Confucianism" is actually a movement to unify thinking.

After Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, politically, he abolished the feudal system and implemented the county system throughout the country; In terms of culture, the script was unified, and the official script with the small seal as the standard; In the economic sphere, the unification of money, the unification of weights and measures, and so on.

These measures are the basic elements of the unity of the State and the elements that can control the violence of the State.

But there are some things that are difficult for the powerful institutions of the state to control, especially in the early years of the Qin Dynasty, when the Warring States period had just ended, and the hundred schools of thought were still in contention, and there was extreme confusion in the ideological field; The most important condition for the degree to which a country can unify is the extent to which it can form common values, and ideological confusion is the great enemy of the formation of common values.

Therefore, it is not enough to have large-scale unified measures in the political, economic, and cultural fields, and the most crucial and long-term reunification factor is ideological unity, and the formation of unified core values can make the unified measures in the political, economic, cultural, and other fields effective.

At that time, the two largest currents of thought were Confucianism and Legalism.

Confucianism and Mohism are also known as scholars, but Mohists focus more on the innovation of agricultural methods, farming and farming. Taoism pays more attention to the study of body and mind, and the exploration of the formation of human nature. Famous scholars pay more attention to metaphysical philosophical thinking.

Confucianism respects the ancients, while Qin Shi Huang's unification of China is a new matter, and the measures he took are all new measures, which are not in line with Confucian ideals. At that time, the nobles of the Six Kingdoms also used the Confucian "self-denial and revenge" in a vain attempt to restore the feudal system of the Zhou Dynasty, so as to gain lost power.

Therefore, for the newly unified Qin Dynasty, the idea of unification was the key measure to maintain the great unification. Therefore, after Qin Shi Huang found a few Confucian stubbles, a cultural movement to unify ideas began, and the means were a little fierce, but the objective effect was obvious.

Although the unified Qin Dynasty lasted only a dozen years, all the rulers after the Qin Dynasty regarded the idea of unification as a key means of maintaining their rule.

By the time Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed the Hundred Schools of Thought and respected Confucianism, the idea of China's great unification was formally formed. Since then, all rulers have basically taken Confucianism as the core idea of the state.

The essence of the Qin Dynasty's "pit Confucianism" and the Han Dynasty's "respecting Confucianism" is the same, both of which are to unify their thinking.

In fact, since the Han Dynasty, all feudal rulers have basically implemented the "Yang Confucianism and Yin Law", or "Confucianism in the real law", that is, on the surface, they adopt the Confucian viewpoint, but in fact they are the means of Legalism.

The emperor ruled the world in a Legalist way, and used Confucian doctrine to educate the people.

Legalism emphasizes law, art, and potential, and the ancients regarded these things as imperial techniques and as a way to control the people and ministers; Confucianism mainly emphasizes benevolence and propriety, and the greatest benefit of benevolence and propriety is to form behavioral consciousness from the moral point of view, without taking violent measures, and is a good tool for maintaining the hierarchy, so successive rulers have used Confucianism to educate the world.

Qin Shi Huang left a reputation for "burning books and pit Confucianism", and he was regarded as a great tyrant, but in fact, he wronged Qin Shi Huang, and this number is actually very small.

In the long history of China, there have been countless murders of thousands of people.

However, this incident offended the literati Confucian clique to the greatest extent, Confucianism has been a very rampant group since the Warring States period, it reflects that if you want to govern the country, you must take Confucianism as the center, so it is not in harmony with the Mohists, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed the hundred schools of thought by respecting Confucianism, and let Confucianism have important power.

After they won their will, they pointed the sinners at Qin Shi Huang, so Qin Shi Huang became a tyrant for eternity and left a stench for thousands of years.

Qin Shi Huang did not kill Chun Yuyue, and the pit killing of warlocks was also dealt with in accordance with the law. Defrauding the state property was a crime of deceiving the king in ancient times, and the crime of deceiving the king was the crime of killing the head.

Although it is lamentable that books have lost a lot of value, it is reasonable for Qin Shi Huang to burn books and pit Confucianism.

As a result, Qin Shi Huang entered Xianyang City, knew the history of China for 5,000 years, and knew that after his death, he was so miserable by Confucianism, how could he not be like thunder.

This is the birth of the [Expulsion Order].

did not kill the Confucian students in Xianyang City directly, even if it was the imperial mind of Qin Shi Huang.

The Confucian students in Xianyang City also knew that their predecessors had done bad things, and retribution was coming. This pot, they have to carry it if they don't carry it.

All of a sudden, a large number of civil officials in the major government affairs institutions of the Xianyang Imperial Court automatically resigned.

The wave of resignations did not affect the operation of Xianyang City. Just because Qin Shi Huang was not alone, those who lived in Xianyang with him were Li Si and a group of important ministers.

I have to say, this is a clever move. Qin Shi Huang's [Expulsion Order] not only drove away the Confucian students who disgusted him, but also successfully controlled Xianyang, killing two birds with one stone.

After the resignation of Confucian scholars, their whereabouts attracted attention.

Going to other royal cities?

Difficult.

Every royal city is saturated, and there is no room for newcomers.

There are only two choices left for Confucianism.

First, completely retire and be an idle cloud and wild crane.

Second, add the player's territory.

The lords of the Chinese district, none of them are fools.

[Exorcision Order], the lords are like crocodiles that smell blood, and they gather in Xianyang City.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the player's territory.

The Confucian scholars of Xianyang City, especially the officials who served in the imperial court before, although they were not historical figures, their role in the territory was not bad at all.

They are highly qualified and experienced, and they are truly invaluable.

To put it bluntly, civil officials like Zhou Haichen and Xu Zhenchang in Shanhai City, in Xianyang City, are a lot of grabs.

There are no longer a few who are better than them.

With such talent, how can you not make the lords excited? Even Ouyang Shuo was excited.

It's a pity that in the battle of Confucianism for Xianyang City, Ouyang Shuo was destined to encounter Waterloo. It stands to reason that the conditions of Shanhai City are unique, and it should return with a big victory, but it is not.

First, the sworn enemy of Confucianism, the Legalists, has a dojo in Shanhai City. Wei Ying, one of the representatives of the Legalists, is even more in an important position in the southern Xinjiang capital.

Think about it, just this one, just keep most of the Confucian students out of the door, and I have a bad heart.

Second, Bai Qi, Wei Ran, Zhang Han and others are all from Qin.

Although these people basically don't have much intersection with Qin Shi Huang, in the eyes of Confucianism, Shanhai City and Xianyang City still wear a pair of pants.

This one, Ouyang Shuo is really innocent of lying down.

Although it is said that Shanhai City is characterized by inclusiveness, it is only Ouyang Shuo's words, and it is difficult to be convincing if he has not seen it with his own eyes.

In this battle for talents, Shanhai City is doomed to lose. (To be continued.) )
