This censor can handle it, he really sprays when something happens

Chapter 99 Make a statement!Willing to open up a path of cultivation for the world and create Confucianism!

Li Qing pretended to be in deep thought, completely ignoring the criticism and rebuke from all directions.

This aroused even greater anger from the scholars present.

Li Qing's series of remarks just now are really outrageous.

The only way is to first accept the idea that the destiny is not enough to be feared, the words of people are not enough to be sympathetic, and the ancestors are not enough to follow the law.

In order to recognize Li Qingmin's thought that the king is more important than the country.

In this era, the vast majority of Confucian scholars are extremely pedantic and pedantic.

I think what the sages said must be right.

In particular, the thought of Confucius represents the absolute truth, which cannot be opposed by anyone.

There are too few people like Sima Jing, the head of Jishan Academy.

After a fierce struggle deep in Kong Wei's heart, he imagined whether he could accept the idea that the people are more important than the monarch and the country is less important if he is not a descendant of Confucius.

In the end, he found that once he removed his background, he would stand from the perspective of an ordinary scholar, an ordinary citizen.

Then it is correct that the people are the most important, the country is the second, and the king is the least!

Without people, where does the country come from, and where does the king come from.

Finally, after a stimulating psychological struggle, Kong Wei still stood up.

Interrupting everyone's criticism and abuse of Li Qing, he said loudly:
"Everyone be quiet!!"

"The topic of this debate is what the king should do if he wants to make the country strong and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Let's put aside the rest of the matter for now. Let's listen to Li Qing's explanation of the way of governing the country first."

As a sacrificial wine for Guozijian, Kong Wei's status in the literary world is undoubtedly detached.

None of the great Confucians present here can compare to him.

A scholar of Dazhou, he also admires him a lot.

After he opened his mouth, the scene slowly returned to tranquility.

Li Qing had already thought of what idea to start his speech with, and after realizing Kong Wei's kindness, he smiled back at him.

Then he said: "I look at the history of the human race, from the endless battles of the princes in the troubled times of ancient times, to the creation of the golden age by the emperor, and to the current seven kingdoms. There are three ways for kings to govern the country in ancient times."

"The superior way of governing the country is the emperor's way, the middle way of governing the country is the kingly way, and the inferior way of governing the country is the way of hegemony."

Emperor way, kingly way, domineering.

These three ways of governing the country are the first time anyone here has heard of them.

Sima Jing asked: "What is the way of the emperor?"

Li Qing replied: "In ancient times, when Emperor Hong was in power, the feudal lords fought against each other and tyrannized the people. However, Emperor Hong could not conquer and wanted to invade the feudal lords.

Therefore, the "government" that has not yet ascended to the throne of the emperor is accustomed to fighting with war, fighting against Hongdi in Liuli Mountain, and winning his ambition in three battles.

If one has one's ambitions, one does not seize one's position, one does not seek fame and fortune, who can do this without benevolence and righteousness?
At that time, there was also the prince "Chi Wang", who had no enmity with "Zheng", but only poisoned other places.

And "Zheng" traveled thousands of miles to eliminate harm for the people, fought in Huangyuan, and captured and killed the Red King.

"Zheng" is not afraid of violence and dares to eliminate harm for the people. Who can do this without great wisdom and courage?
When "Zheng" was not on the throne of the emperor, he sought profit for the people and scrambled for the first.Eliminate harm for the people, go forward indomitable.

He never enjoyed a single day of peace, so in the end he ruled the world and was embraced by the people as the emperor.

Overcoming all difficulties for the people, working tirelessly, and never shrinking back, this is the invincible way of the emperor!

The way of emperor is compatible with kingly way and domineering.

But only with the virtues of great benevolence, great righteousness, great wisdom and great courage, like a human emperor, can one emulate this way.

However, such a king has not been born since the emperor. "

When everyone heard this, even Zhu Jiuyuan couldn't help nodding.

Li Qing used the most respected emperor among the human race as an example to summarize his way of governing the country.

Approved by everyone present.

After Sima Jing heard this, he became even more curious about kingly ways and overbearing.

Asked: "What is kingly way?"

The scholars who had angrily scolded and criticized Li Qing, now they all looked forward to it.

Li Qing replied: "The emperor's way is invincible, and the king's way must be victorious without defeat.

Since Kong Sheng, the kings have governed the country with rituals and morality.

The so-called kingly way refers to the noble virtues of kings and officials.

In the noble virtues, the behavior of the king is generally benevolent and loving to the people.

Therefore, the king of benevolence often uses virtue to educate the people, which is called virtue.

Those who convince others with virtue will be sincerely convinced with joy in the center.

Administering the country in a kingly way and implementing benevolent government can win the support of the people and make the country long-term stability.

However, there have been few kings with such noble virtues since ancient times.

Even if the current kings are virtuous, how can they guarantee that the future kings will also be virtuous?
Therefore, I think that the king has the virtues of great benevolence, great righteousness, great wisdom and great courage, so he pursues the emperor's way and dominates the world.

When the king's virtue is high, he can rule the country in a kingly way, and he will win without defeat.

If the king does not have noble virtues, the way of kingship will be defeated but not victorious. "

According to Wang Daozhi, Li Qing added the concept of benevolent government to Kong Sheng's way of governing the country.

Inherited and perfected the thought of Confucius.

It caused Kong Wei's eyes to sparkle, sometimes excited, sometimes excited.

"The kingly way is to conduct benevolent government on the basis of virtue, and the evergreen theory of kingly way makes me suddenly enlightened!
The king's virtue is noble, and the king's way will win without defeat.If the king lacks virtue, the way of kingship must be defeated but never won. "

Thousands of scholars, as well as great scholars present.

They all felt that Li Qing's thought of kingship expounded on the basis of Kong Sheng's rule of virtue was very correct and there was no way to refute it.

Although he was dissatisfied with Li Qing's disrespect for etiquette, he was also sincerely convinced at this time.

Before Sima Jing could ask, Kong Wei asked first, "Ask Changqing, what is domineering?"

Hearing the analysis of Emperor Dao and Wang Dao, everyone present listened more and more seriously.

The entire Guozijian Square was silent, waiting for the third way in Li Qing's way of governing the country.

Li Qingdao: "Kingly conquers people with virtue, and domineering conquers people with strength.

Those who convince others with virtue will be sincerely convinced with joy in the center.Those who use strength to convince others are not subdued from the heart, and strength is not sufficient.

The kingly way emphasizes benevolent government and governs the country with virtue.Hegemony respects the law and rules the country by law.

To govern the country in the way of kingship requires the king to be virtuous.Moreover, it takes a lot of energy and time to educate the people, and all officials must also have noble virtues.The effect is slow, but the effect is long-term.It has the effect of long-term stability.

Hegemony governing the country, ruling the country according to the law, using wisdom and power, persuading people with benefits, seducing people with benefits, and using force, criminal law, and power to enrich the country and rule the world are all people who fear the law and follow it.

Hegemony governing the country, the improvement of national strength is immediate.Invincible in wartime, invincible.But the fatal thing about domineering is that it cannot last.

Once the interests disappear, or the laws are too strict, officials will bend the law for personal gain and use power for personal gain. "

Finally, he concludes.

"When the world is in peace for a long time, govern the country with the kingly way and implement benevolent government."

"When the world is in chaos, rule the country with hegemony and reward and punish."

"When you meet a holy lord who is benevolent, righteous, wise and brave, kings and hegemons will go hand in hand, and rule the country with the emperor's way."

After the three ways of governing the country were finished, the people present couldn't calm down for a long time, and they kept thinking about it in their hearts.

Suddenly, Zhu Jiuyuan said: "If you meet a holy lord, you will govern the country with the emperor's way. If you meet a virtuous lord, the world will be safe for a long time, and you will govern the country with the kingly way. I agree with these two points.

But when the world is in chaos, heavy rewards and punishments, and ruling the country with hegemony, won't it lead to the collapse of etiquette?At that time, the country will not be a country! "

Li Qingdao: "But today, there are signs of great chaos. Leaving the country to reform the law, and the country's power is at its peak. This is the best proof of domineering governance.

The most fundamental difference between benevolent and overbearing lies in the starting point of their respective aspirations.

Where a thought is initiated is action.

If one thought is the heart of utilitarianism, starting with the heart of utilitarianism to strengthen the country is the overbearing.

If one thought is benevolence, starting with benevolence to strengthen the country, even if you do hegemonic things, it is the kingly way.

Leaving the country to reform the law, now Chen Bing is on the south side of Jinting Mountain, staring at the Great Zhou, this is overbearing.

Our Great Zhou was beset by enemies from both sides, monsters and barbarians invaded from the north, and Liguo intercepted from the south.With the heart of protecting the people from being slaughtered, it is the kingly way to govern the country and improve the country's strength. "

When Zhu Jiuyuan heard this, he scolded loudly: "Govern the country with benevolence and love, and the people will return to their hearts.

To rule the country by law, there must be officials seeking selfishness, which will lead to panic and chaos in the country.

The kingly way is the kingly way, and domineering is domineering.

Overbearing and vulgar, how can it be confused with the benevolence of the kingly way?
Such a sophistry is really absurd, it is simply nonsense! "

Zhu Jiuyuan's words immediately won the support of many great scholars present.

The thoughts in their bones are etiquette and morality, benevolence and love for the world.

Governing the country according to the law is too utilitarian, which leads to the collapse of ritual and music.

How can I get their approval?

Li Qing sneered and said: "Overbearing and vulgar, Wang Daokong talks big. Both are for the country, how can there be distinction between vulgar and vulgar?"

Zhu Jiuyuan's eyes widened, and he glared at Li Qing, "You say that morality and benevolence are empty talk, are you talking big?"

Li Qing's remarks are tantamount to tarnishing and denying the thought of Confucius.

The rest of the people also looked at Li Qing with dangerous eyes.

If there is a disagreement, there is a tendency to draw swords and face each other.

Li Qing didn't take a step back, and looked directly at Zhu Jiuyuan, "Rule the country tyrannically, you are worried that the law will be used by the officials for selfish purposes, causing panic among the people and chaos in the country.

But if the king governs the country, don't those officials have selfishness?Are they really all benevolent people?
Since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it has ruled the country with kingly ways.Over the past few hundred years, how many officials have used power for personal gain, and how many officials have engaged in partisan disputes for their own interests in the court.

The kingly way educates the people. After so many years, even the officials can't educate them well. How can they educate the people?

Kingly ruling the country is not empty talk and big talk, what is it!
How can there be good or bad ways of governing the country?Only according to the ability and virtue of the king, comprehensive consideration should be made according to the current situation.

When the country lives and dies, how can you save it with a word of kindness?
Li Guo and Youman are attacking Da Zhou from the back and the back, can you use morality and benevolence to persuade them to retreat?

At this juncture, don't be overbearing, do you want to hold high the banner of etiquette, music, benevolence, and wait for the great Zhou to subjugate the country? "

Li Qing asked questions one after another.

Every time he questioned, Zhu Jiuyuan took a step back.

At the end, his face turned pale and he was speechless.

Confucianism educates all people in the name of morality and benevolence, but in the end, even those scholars who are officials in the court begin to use their power for personal gain.They even formed factions to compete with each other for power and profit.

Even Zhu Jiuyuan himself was the same.

How can we use ritual, music and benevolence to educate the people when we cannot do it ourselves?

In such a situation, it is better to rule the country hegemonicly, so as to make the country stronger and not be bullied by the monsters and Li Guo.

"Whether it is kingly governance or hegemonic governance, the ultimate evil lies in the king and officials."

"If kings and officials care about the people and seek benefits for the people, then when the world is stable, the kingly way will make the country long-term stability. When the world is in turmoil, hegemony will make the country rich and powerful."

"The premise of governing the country is self-cultivation and morality! If you are not upright and have incomplete virtues, how can you govern the country?"

Li Qing's voice reached everyone's ears through the sound reinforcement array.

Make them feel deafened.

Is it really for the common people or for your own future to become an official in the imperial examination?
Many people feel panic and uneasiness in their hearts as if the fig leaf has been lifted.

If you are a common people, stick to your heart and not be moved by utilitarianism, what is the difference between being kingly and overbearing?

If you are selfish and pursuing utilitarianism, what qualifications do you have to talk about the way of governing the country?
Kong Wei sighed deeply, and said: "Without a Holy Lord who is benevolent, righteous, wise and brave, the world will not be able to usher in the golden age of the emperor.

If the officials are utilitarian and do not love the people, it will be of no benefit to the people whether the king governs the country with hegemony or kingly.

At its root, whether the country has long-term stability and whether the people live and work in peace and contentment all depend on the king and officials.

Evergreen, do you have a solution? "

Sima Jing, Wang Linfu, and other great scholars.

They all sighed heavily.

Most of them come from aristocratic families, and they know that the problem of officials seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages comes from their families.

This problem cannot be solved at all.

All of a sudden, these great Confucians felt that their beliefs had collapsed.

I thought that by reading the books of sages and sages, I could govern the country.

Unexpectedly, in the end, those who harm the country and the people are those who have read the books of sages and sages and have selfish interests in mind!

If the officials are all benevolent to the people and have no selfishness, no matter whether they act kingly or overbearing, how can the country not be strong?
"Is there a solution?"

Li Qing looked up at the sky above.

It seems that there is a Confucian avenue looming there.

After a long time, he murmured: "Maybe there is, let me try it."

Li Qing straightened up abruptly, his eyes were shining brightly, his gaze pierced through the thick clouds and reached Jiutian.

He took a deep breath, facing the sky and the earth, and said loudly:
"There is meritorious deeds, followed by meritorious deeds, and then words. Although they are not abandoned for a long time, this is called immortality.

Today, Li Qing, Linping Mansion, Great Zhou Dynasty,

With the body of no good and no disgust, there are good and malicious actions, knowing good and knowing evil is conscience, and doing good and eliminating evil is investigating things and establishing words.

It is thought that the heaven and the earth shall be established, the life shall be established for the living and the people, the knowledge of the past saints shall be inherited, and the peace and peace shall be established for all generations.

Based on Confucianism of all ages,

I swear to heaven and earth that I am willing to open up a path of cultivation for heaven and earth and create Confucianism.

Confucianism was founded, there is no discrimination in teaching, regardless of race, high or low, all scholars in the world can join our Confucianism.

This oath is witnessed by the sun and the moon, and the heaven and the earth will learn from it, and the immortals, devils and gods will listen to it! "

Boom! ! !
The moment Li Qing's words fell, within the territory of the Seven Kingdoms of the Human Race, flowers were falling from the sky, and golden lotuses were gushing from the ground.

Wenquxing suddenly burst into billions of rays of light, covering the brilliance of the scorching sun.

The mighty purple air came overwhelmingly, stretching across the sky of the Seven Kingdoms.

In the nine heavens, thunderclouds rolled.

One after another purple-red thunder, like the God of Destroying the World, swallowed it.

The heavens and the earth trembled!

The howling and crying of ghosts and gods came from all directions!
