Master Archaeologist

Chapter 246 Gongyang Confucianism is Ruthless!
After cleaning up the accidentally discovered bronze mirror, Chen Han continued to walk through the west corridor with the bronze mirror.

After a while, he arrived in the XZ room.

Different from the East Tibetan Room which is completely a whole, the west side room is divided into two large ones and one small three small compartments.

The compartment in the middle is a document archive full of bamboo slips.

As for the cultural relics in the two storage rooms on the left and right, one large and one small, Chen Han still doesn't know.

After arriving in the west room, he first handed over the bronze mirror to a staff member of the Jiangxi Archaeological Institute, and told him to store the bronze mirror, before asking: "How is the situation here?"

"How is the situation in the other two storage rooms?"

Facing Chen Han's curious gaze, the colleague from the Jiangxi Institute of Archeology didn't hide it. He pointed to the storage room next to the document archives and said, "The storage room next door is a storage room for entertainment equipment."

"Entertainment equipment library?" Chen Han repeated in doubt.

"Yes, literally, with some entertainment equipment installed."

The staff member of the Jiangxi Institute chuckled: "For example, we found something interesting inside."

"Pitch the pot!"

The so-called throwing pot is a traditional etiquette and banquet game of the Han nationality. It should have been formed in the Zhou Dynasty at the earliest, and evolved from the shooting ceremony.

In some literature records of the Spring and Autumn Period, the entertainment method of "throwing pots" appeared.

In the Han Dynasty, "throwing pots" became an elegant activity of Confucian scholars.

The specific gameplay of this game is to take a round pitching pot with a narrow mouth and a round body, which is a bit like a modern vase, and place it in the center of the banquet.

The guests located around each held arrows in their hands, aimed at the small opening, and shot arrows in.

Winning or losing is determined by the number of hits.

"Book of Rites · Tossing the Pot" says: "The person who throws the pot, the host and the guest drink and talk about talent."

It should be a game played with the guests while throwing pots and drinking.

Most of the throwing pots unearthed are mostly made of bronze.

The last prosperous period of this kind of game was the Han Dynasty. After the Han Dynasty, pitching pot gradually withdrew from the banquet culture.

The "Confucian scholars" after the Han Dynasty, whether they were Gongyang Confucianism or Guliang Confucianism, were all indifferent.

Only "Ancient Confucianism" is left, that is, Confucian scholars who are more in line with the "rotten Confucianism" and "sour Confucianism" in modern people's cognition and impression.

Naturally, this kind of Confucian scholars will no longer play the game of throwing pots related to archery.

Don't look at the general view of "Confucianism" among modern people. They think that Confucianism is self-styled, ruled by ignorant people, and confines thought.

But in the Western Han Dynasty, Western Han Confucianism was the most "transformative" academic thought. Whether it was Gongyang Confucianism, Guliang Confucianism, or the Simeng School, most of them were Confucianism that actively sought change and carried the legacy of the Warring States Period. .

The Confucian scholars at that time also paid attention to keeping the sword close to the body, paying attention to the fact that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, valued great unity, respected the king and fought against barbarians, and adopted a policy of bloody suppression of foreign nationalities.

Otherwise, the two dynasties of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty would not be able to conquer the world.

And these Confucian schools in the Western Han Dynasty are collectively referred to as the "Jinwen Jing School"!
During the Qin Dynasty, the first emperor burned books, causing many scriptures to be lost.In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, the officials asked the elders to dictate the scriptures, and recorded them in the official script used at that time, called "Jinwen".

The so-called Guliang School, Gongyang School, and Zuo's Spring and Autumn Period.

These three schools of Confucianism are actually three kinds of Confucianism combined with the social needs of the Western Han Dynasty and absorbed the theories of other schools to create a new ideological system with Confucianism as the core.

From an academic point of view, these schools of Jinwen classics are academic factions formed on the basis of Confucius' "Spring and Autumn" and reinterpreting "Spring and Autumn" with the school's own thoughts.

Although they are all descendants of Confucianism, the knowledge they are doing is the contemporary knowledge of the Western Han Dynasty.

Dong Zhongshu was able to persuade Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to respect Confucianism only because he came up with a new set of Confucianism suitable for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty when he was in power.

It can be said that Confucianism in the Western Han Dynasty was very advanced with the times, and often made drastic reforms to its own academics.

However, this Jinwen Confucianism school basically disappeared in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

During the period of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, Liu Yu, king of Lu Gong, destroyed the residence of Confucius and obtained the Book of Rites, Shangshu, Spring and Autumn Annals, Analects of Confucius, and the Book of Filial Piety on the wall.

And Hejian Xianwang also called him the biography of ancient Chinese scriptures.

At that time, many scripture teachers did not believe in ancient Chinese.

But at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Fuqian, Ma Rong, and Zheng Xuan all respected and studied ancient prose, and the study of ancient prose and classics flourished.

The commentaries on the Thirteen Classics of Confucianism that have been handed down up to now are mostly based on the theory of the ancient literature school.

As for the theory of modern literature in the Western Han Dynasty, only the Gongyang Biography left by Dong Zhongshu, who relied on dismissing hundreds of schools and respecting Confucianism at that time, is the version annotated and written by the descendant He Xiu, not the original version of Dong Zhongshu.

The remaining Confucian schools, whether it is Simeng, Gongyang, Zuozhuan, or even Luru, have basically lost their inheritance.

Later, during the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, Confucianism was the so-called "ancient literature and classics", that is, the school of advocating the ancients.

It can be said that the rotten Confucianism in the Ming and Qing Dynasties was completely imprisoned from thought to body, and the dregs that kept women in the cage of etiquette were all attributed to the School of Classical Classics.

It really has nothing to do with the Jinwen Confucianism School of the Western Han Dynasty.

The Confucian scholars in the Western Han Dynasty were also able to kill when mounted on a horse, traveled three thousand miles with a sword, and ruled the people when dismounted.

And shouted: "Is it possible to take revenge for nine generations? Even for a hundred generations!" The slogan!

The Confucian scholars at that time were the ruthless people who really fought against the Huns and vowed to take revenge for a hundred generations!
In the Confucianism of the Western Han Dynasty, no women and no talents are virtues.

Nor did Confucian scholars after the Song and Ming Dynasties emphasize that "starvation to death is extremely small, and injustice is extremely great."

Not to mention the kind of "big Confucians" who are brave enough to fight internally but are afraid to fight externally, and are beaten black and blue by foreigners or played around in circles, or who dislike "the water is too cold" and "abandon the dark and turn to the bright" faster than anyone else!
It's funny.

When Emperor Wu of the Han clamored to avenge the Xiongnu, there were many peacemakers in the court, and they all thought that war was the best way to go.

He even brought out the saying in "Zhou Li" that revenge can last within the fifth life, and beyond the fifth life, it is meaningless to do it to oneself, and it is innocent to do it to others to choke Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

In the end, it was Gongyangru who stood up and came up with his own theory of great revenge, clamoring that the monarch's humiliation can be repaid for a hundred generations!

Gongyang Confucianism believes that national feuds can last for hundreds of generations, and revenge must be done!
And the Xiongnu bullied the father and grandfather of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty all the way back to the ancestor Liu Bang!
Several emperors of the Western Han Dynasty were invaded by the Huns. Could this not be a national enmity?

This revenge must be avenged!
With the theoretical support of Gongyangru, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty overwhelmed the peace talks faction in the court, and finally Wei Qinghuo Qubing came to seal the wolf and live in Xuxu, breaking the backbone of the Xiongnu in one fell swoop.

It can be regarded as avenging the great revenge of the five emperors for 60 years!

This kind of Confucianism is completely different from the Confucianism of the Song and Ming Dynasties
Such Confucianism, like throwing pots, which involves conquest on the battlefield, and playing games such as boxi, which uses chess pieces to simulate an army confrontation, seems to be a common sense thing!
