Qin Shizhi's Confucian junior master

Chapter 68, What is a hooligan?
Soon Zhao Gao rushed back to Xili from Xianyang, looking at Ziyou who was teaching Yili benevolence and morality in Xili, Zhao Gao couldn't help but leaned over to listen.

"Teacher, is the benevolence you mentioned really the benevolence that Confucius and his elders talked about?" Chu Liyi looked at Ziyou and asked dully.

"Of course, what kind of benevolence do you think of a person who is nine feet two tall, moves like a rabbit, and has the strength to be far away from the city gate? The technique of dividing a person in two is benevolence." Ziyou explained.

"Why is righteousness the power to hammer people's heads into their chests?" Chi Liyi asked with a click of his tongue.

"Why not? Mencius said that tyranny is fiercer than a tiger. Let me ask you what is the name of Mencius?" Ziyou asked.

"Ke?" Chu Liyi said.

"So what this sentence means is that Meng Ke is officially fiercer than a tiger." Ziyou said.

Not only Chi Liyi was stunned, but even Zhao Gao who was eavesdropping began to doubt his perception of benevolence and righteousness, but Ziyou, as a disciple of Confucian Xunzi and the second master of the little sage Zhuang, couldn't possibly distort these classics, right?Is this the true explanation of benevolence and righteousness?It's just that the world has been misunderstood?

"Are you sure?" Chu Liyi felt that he had worshiped the wrong teacher.

"What do you think Confucianism is?" Ziyou asked.

"Teach people to be kind, and persuade the king to practice benevolence?" Chi Liyi asked.

"Confucius traveled around the world. In this day and age, do you think a person who has no power to restrain a chicken can travel around the world? Can the kings listen to him seriously and give him a word of kindness at the end?" Ziyou asked.

"No." Chi Liyi thought for a while and said.

"So ordinary people don't talk about traveling around the world, they may be robbed if they go out, but what about Confucius? Traveling around the world with his 72 sages and 72 disciples, do you think he is the disciple he brought? He brought [-] masters , Three thousand Wen can scold an army of five, and Wu can pick ten troops, who do you think will not listen to such a person when he meets him?" Ziyou said.

Xi Liyi was shocked. He didn't expect this to be the case, and Zhao Gao was even more stupid. Is this really Confucianism?Why does it sound more and more like a gang of robbers?
"You have to remember that the ultimate debate is physical debate. If you want people to listen to you, you must have the capital to sit down and listen to you. You can only debate or fight, and you can only be called a lobbyist. And rangers, those who are knowledgeable and can fight are called great scholars!" Ziyou said.

Ziyou's words made Xi Liyi and Zhao Gao fall into deep thought. After thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is really the truth.

Take today's two great schools as an example, the Mohists are like shit-stirring guys, they will come out to help the small country every time a big country attacks a small country, not only it's okay, but it has become today's famous school.

Not to mention Confucianism. In the words of later generations, Confucianism is the biggest troll, and it is still the troll that cannot be scolded. One sentence can ruin a family. , and the Confucianism directly built the Xiaoshengxian Village in Sanghai, but no one dared to provoke it, isn't it the reason?

Ziyou looked at Ziyou and felt that something was wrong, but something was right. Ziyou shook his head when he looked at Qian Liyi's doubts. Qian Liyi was not Wu Hehou, he had too many things on his shoulders, family, mission, country, so what he learns is destined to be practical.

Confucianism can only help him cultivate himself and prevent him from forgetting his original intention. Ziyou wondered if he should get the knowledge of Guigu. Obviously, the knowledge of Strategists is more suitable for Chu Liyi. As for why the Confucian disciple Ci Liyi should learn Vertical and horizontal?Isn't Zongheng's surname Confucianism after Xi Liyi?How did Confucian righteousness come about?Isn’t it just the debate between Mencius and Mozi, who scolded the Mohists as beasts and broke the lineage of Qi Mo (Mo Bian), while quietly absorbing their theories, so that Confucianism can learn from the noble and widowed aristocratic inner sage self-cultivation , Gradually there is the study of foreign kings that can benefit the world, that is, Confucianism and Xia.

But Ziyou felt that it was unnecessary to ask Ziyou to argue with Guiguzi. He was not stupid enough to provoke a great master.

Zhao Gao came out of his contemplation and knocked lightly on the door.

"Sir, Zhao Gao asks to see you." Zhao Gao said, saluting outside the door.

"Come in."

Zhao Gao pushed open the door and entered, bowed to Ziyou and said

"Sir, the court meeting is over. Just as you expected, Lord Chang'an lost his threat to the king. Lord Changping of the Chu family went to the harem after the court meeting, and then paid homage to the king. The Chu family fell to the king."

"As expected, the Empress Dowager Huayang was impatient, and wanted to use the power of Mi Shuo, the old four nobles, to try it out, but she didn't expect that stealing a chicken would not result in a loss." Ziyou said.

In fact, this matter is also the short-sightedness of Mi Shuo and Mr. Chang'an. They are so close at this juncture, and they do not avoid suspicion at all. As long as someone wants to make use of it, it is a trick, especially their opponents are Lu Buwei and Zhao Ji. What is this?This is a combination of foreign relatives and dignitaries and heroes. No matter what dynasty this combination is placed in, it is a combination of kings. Everyone has to be careful, otherwise there will be no good results.

"After this time, Your Majesty has his own confidants in the court. This time, Your Majesty asked me to ask Mr. Chang'an, although the work of Lord Chang'an has been completed, it is still difficult to push forward the locust control. The people are still afraid of the locust plague. What can I do, sir?" Zhao Gao asked.

Ziyou pondered for a while. Things like worshiping ghosts and gods are indispensable in this era. The only thing we can do is to distinguish between worship and superstition, so that the people will no longer be obsessed with and superstitious about ghosts and gods, but treat them with awe. Ghosts, there is only one way to do this, use magic to defeat magic.

"You tell the king to wait for another three days, and there will naturally be a way to solve this matter." Ziyou said.

"No! There is one more thing. Qin Mo sent people to visit the king. They hope to meet with you." Zhao Gao said.

"Qin Mo?" Ziyou was a little surprised.

After the death of Mozi, the Mohists in various places gradually dispersed into three factions, Qin Mo of the Xiangli clan, Chu Mo of the Dengling clan, and Qi Mo of the Xiangfu clan.

Chu Mo's Deng Lingzi, this faction is more of a knight-errant, doing righteousness everywhere.They oppose the wars of various countries, and believe that these wars are launched by the rich and powerful for their own interests, and are not conducive to the common people. They measure the world with their own values. Now the largest branch of the Mohist school, this branch is also the most famous for its work, helping Chu Yangjun defend the city, Deng Lingzi leading the god-killing troops to attack Shang Yang, and so on.

Qi Mo's Xiangfuzi, this school is a school that mainly focuses on scholars' debates. They travel around the world and teach the Mohist thought of universal love. They oppose the use of violence to solve problems, and hope to use gentle methods to achieve peace. The most fanciful school, and then Qi Mo was beaten by Confucianism and fled, and the inheritance was cut off. So far, no descendant who claims to be the lineage of Mo Bian has appeared.

As for Qin Mo's Xiang Liqin, they are more like engineers and scientists of later generations. They pay attention to scientific and technological research and are very pragmatic.The reason for helping Qin is also because they saw that only Qin's system at that time was the closest to their Mohist's final vision, so they were willing to help Qin complete the unification war and establish the country they imagined.

"Yes." Zhao Gao said.

"Qin Mo? I don't see you." Ziyou rubbed his chin and said, Qin Mo is still beneficial to the Qin country. If they really meet, Ziyou feels that he can't help but attack them. There are so many technical talents who are not greedy ah?
