My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Chapter 602: Realizing the Ancestor’s Ideal

In the city of Xianyang of the State of Qin, the people of the State of Qin were immersed in the joy of victory over the country. They watched the people of the State of Chu and Qi come from thousands of miles away, put on their clothes and perform corvées in Xianyang City, and did heavy work every day. of work.

The heroes of Qin are also happily waiting for their wise and wise king to give them the qualifications to divide the people, land, and feudal countries.

At this moment, Fusu, who is far away in Linzi, Qi County, is preparing to enter the sage mode - living an ordinary life isolated from the world and doing only one thing in his life.

Fusu called the Mo family's great son, oh no, it was the former Mo family's great son.

The future of the empire needs the Qin Mo family to make some changes to get on the right track. The Great Qin Empire cannot be saved by mere tactics.

Now, not only is Yingzheng designing the system and actively preparing for the upcoming birth of the Qin Empire, Fusu is fighting for the future of the empire.

He needs to choose a theory and create a perfect ideological system. Through the cultural and educational support, Ying Zheng is preparing to build the emperor system, hoping that it can guide the people to make ideological changes and accept the emperor system.

The emperor system is definitely an extremely great political and historical legacy in world history.

Supporting the emperor system is definitely not for the benefit of Fusu itself or even the Qin royal family, but if you want to truly follow the mass line, you must stick to this path.

[There is a large section missing here, I will post it in video form later——]

From the perspective of interests, we should rethink that humiliating history, the definition of Chinese people given by Westerners, and the very strong cultural control and cultural export to China over the past century.

In the end, the result of the West's doing this is to make China's own country have a low status in the international arena for generations. The initial beatings were all due to its own fault, leaving the Western powers in a position of absolute justice and transcendence.

The simplest analysis of behavioral motivations boils down to just two words - interest!
In fact, China's emperor system was labeled as feudal and backward during China's darkest period.

In fact, China has got rid of the feudal system of land division since Qin Shihuang two thousand years ago! A centralized system was established.

Changing names, secretly changing definitions, distorting conceptual explanations, and changing China's two thousand years of great political and historical civilization into backwardness and poverty are things that only certain civilizations that are about to be destroyed can do.

Closer to home, Fusu would choose the emperor system, whether it was for the sake of family and country, or considering the future development direction of the entire nation.

Because the emperor system itself is a central system. And the emperor of China has never had the possibility of being a dictator. Even if you think about it with your own feet, you know that this kind of nonsense has no reality at all.

Even in later generations, the emperor system was only ended in name.

The reason for summarizing and thinking about these is that Fusu does not have to worry about history entering a reincarnation, it has been the same for thousands of years.

On the contrary, it is the conspiracy of some bad guys that makes people think that the past few thousand years have been a bad circle. Compared with the rest of the world, Chinese people can live a long-term peaceful and prosperous life at any time.

Give me a chestnut. First of all, there is no need to talk about the Han and Tang Dynasties. It was the first establishment of the Song Dynasty. Historical records record that the door curtain hooks of ordinary people's homes in the outer suburbs of the capital were all made of pure gold.

The war had just ended, and the families in the outer suburbs of the capital were probably ordinary families. They were neither businessmen nor officials. The combination of agriculture and handicrafts alone, and the combination of men and women, could make themselves so wealthy.

This also proves that China has always been a super strong trade surplus country.

Precisely because this country's system is so superior, so superior that it only changed its name but is still implemented in practice, it quickly regained its vitality and once again became the envy of everyone in the world.

Therefore, Fusu must support Ying Zheng in establishing the emperor system, and he and his descendants must protect this emperor system in the future.

Of course, this emperor system has many problems and needs to be improved. But without this system, the situation would only be worse.

Because we in China have always had many neighbors who are using their own histories of blood and tears to compile negative teaching materials.

These negative teaching materials from neighbors are of course only for reading, not for trying.

If there is only such a bridge, which can make everyone's life generally good, then please don't be dissatisfied with whether this only bridge is strong or not, because it will break occasionally and need to be repaired by future generations.

Please don't be dissatisfied with whether it is spacious enough, because there are too many people passing by, and someone will always be squeezed in.

Please don’t dislike it. This bridge is too old. Although it is old, it is as strong as Chinese ginger! It is working hard and is strong enough to ensure that everyone can live a stable life.

However, this is the challenge that Ying Zheng and Fu Su are now facing together.

It has just been born, like a baby, extremely fragile. Many people see that its growth is destined to hinder their own interests and want to strangle it in the cradle.

The nobles of the Six Kingdoms and the nobles of Qin will lose the power to discuss affairs from now on. They are the biggest opponents; those outstanding scholars, farmers, industry and merchants will also oppose this baby growing up, because it prevents them from becoming princes. The possibility of generals.

The emergence of princes and generals often costs the common people their families and lives. When people talk about the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, they always think of the splendid civilization - hundreds of schools of thought; the endless emergence of heroes. But no one paid attention to how many wars broke out in those short two hundred years, how many children were sold by human traffickers, how many women and children lost the protection of their husbands and fathers and suffered bullying.

That was clearly the most criminal history. The white, pure flowers that grew out of that period of history were nurtured by the blood, bones, greed, cunning, betrayal, and ruthlessness of countless people. Because the sky is so dark, people know how good light is!
Therefore, based on the actual geographical situation of Qin as a victorious country and annexing the six countries, Fusu will never deviate from this direction at such a major historical crossroads - maintaining the emperor system.

This means that Fusu must protect the county system in the future.

The reason why Fusu was in Linzi, Qi County at this juncture this time was to reduce the resistance he caused to Ying Zheng.

It is unimaginable that once a high-prestige successor like himself stays in Xianyang of the Qin State and participates in the establishment of the future Chao Gang system, when Ying Zheng opposes the parallel system of prefectures and states, he will become a thorn in the side of Ying Zheng and the court officials at the same time.

So now, for Fusu, his leaving Xianyang has done Ying Zheng the greatest favor. He did not oppose the establishment of the emperor system, but he absolutely disapproved of the feudal system, which was Fusu's greatest contribution.

Fu Su believed in Ying Zheng, and he would definitely be able to bring down the framework of the emperor's system.

Now it is Fusu who pretends to "follow orders" to complete the transformation of Mohist thought. He hopes that in the future, on the basis of Mohist thought, fluttering red flags can also be born.

The great son of the Mo family in front of him is called Xiangli Che.

Xiangliche is naturally the descendant of Xiangliqin. His appearance seems to be very different from that of the Qin people, with a fair complexion. Because he spends many years developing equipment for battlefield siege and siege under the shade of trees or in the armory, he does not look like a warrior or a farmer.

Xiangliche was suddenly summoned by Fusu, and he was murmuring in his heart. Although the prince didn't punish him when he was embarrassed last time. I have been feeling uneasy for the past half month.

Now that I am summoned, I always feel terrified.

"Your Majesty is above, but I have made a big mistake, which has brought shame to the Qin State in front of the people of the world. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Fusu's prepared remarks were suppressed by Xiangliche, he emphasized. "Qin is the world, and the world is Qin."

Xiangliche suddenly raised his head and looked at Fusu with clear eyes. That seems to be the case.

Fusu looked at the thoughts flowing out of his eyes and felt ashamed.

The two chatted for a while, and Fusu gave Xiangli Che some wine. The frightened Xiangli Che saw that the prince did not punish him, he broke out in a cold sweat, and drank freely.

In fact, the Mohist family had long since declined in the Qin State, and the Qin Legalist family was at its peak. Had the prince not invited them this time, they would not have been taken seriously again. In the eyes of the Mo family, the Qin Mo family was an accomplice in tyrannizing the Qin State, and they deserved to decline in the end.

But even so, it is the Qin Mo family that has not been loved and reused for a long time, and it has nothing to do with them, the marquis. . .

Xiang Liche only understood this truth when the Qin Mo family was collectively rejected by hundreds of schools of thought. The Qin Mo family has actually integrated into the Qin State a long time ago, and the organized gang that used to strive to realize the dream of Shangtong and Feifeng has long since disappeared.

All that remains now are technology, books and titles passed down from ancestors. As for the ideal, I don’t know whether it was broken, but it is gone anyway. Fusu listened to Xiang Liche's conversation and expressed his thoughts. He stopped going around the bush and went straight to the point.

"Our country of Qin has always been governed by law. In the past, King Shang reformed the law, and our country of Qin has since become a powerful country in the world. Therefore, many people regard Lord Shang as a disciple of Legalism."

"We also regard Shang Jun as a person who is determined to make the country rich and strengthen its army. Therefore, many people think that Shang Jun is the hero of Qin."

Xiang Liche chuckled, "Shang Jun's policies are all based on the experience that our Mohist family has put into practice."

"Mozi: Preparing the City Gate" says: "Ten people on the city are very tall"; "Mozi: The Temple of Welcome the Enemy" says, "Sima considered the city to be built with a team of troops... There will be a team leader at five steps, and a team leader at ten steps. Very long, a hundred steps have a hundred lengths. The "Shi Wu" and "Lian Zu" in our Qin State are not derived from the practice of Mohism. "

"Bei City Gate": "Abiding by the law, there are ten husbands at fifty paces, twenty young ladies, and ten old and young men. In total, there are forty men at fifty paces." The soldiers at the bottom of the city (or should be called the upper floors) were led by one person at one step and twenty at twenty steps. The small and large in the city lead with this, which is enough to defend the siege (imperial). "

"During the war, young girls and young ladies must be mobilized together. This is the integration of soldiers and peasants. Moreover, the "household registration of more than 100 people" was also implemented during the period of Duke Xiangong of Qin Dynasty. When the late king Xiangong accepted our country of Qin, we, the Mohist family, gave us full support. It's just that Unexpectedly, Shang Yang came from behind."

Fusu told Xiang Liche directly, "I know all these situations. I also know that the Mohist family has made great contributions to the Qin State. Our Qin State has given the Mohist family officials and titles and extremely generous treatment."

"But because the Qin Mohist Family has long been digested by the Qin State, because it wants to establish a centralized country, the Mohist Family, as a powerful organization, only takes orders from the Mohist Family."

"This is a big challenge in itself for our late king of Qin. I can completely understand why the Qin Mo family disappeared from Qin in the later period."

"And your original identity as Ju Zi was actually only temporarily selected by our Qin Mo family based on your pedigree. Just to participate in this conference."

Xiang Liche felt something was wrong, "Could it be that the prince appointed himself as the most powerful son of the Mo family because he wanted to make me, the Mo family..."

"You were right."

"I want to bring all the schools of thought back to life, and the Mohist family needs to be revived."

Xiang Liche looked confused, "The Mo family needs a prince?"

Fusu sat upright, "Isn't it?"

Looking at the car and stroking the beard, thinking. The organizational rules of the Mohist school were a challenge to the Qin system, because the rules of the Mohist disciples were that they could only obey the orders of the Mohist disciples.

And now that the prince has become the most powerful son of the Mohist family, all the Mohist disciples only need to obey the prince's orders and will not have any impact on the Qin State.

It turns out that the recovery the prince was talking about was not Fusu, but recovery. I also asked why the prince was so polite to me all of a sudden.

Xiang Liche's eyes suddenly shone, "Did the prince fall in love with our Mo family?"

"The Mohists advocate unity and non-aggression, which is what the people of the world long for. Compared with Qin Legalism, I think the Mohists are more popular with the people of the world. After all, when Mozi and the people were working hard in the fields, the people of the world Mo Zi is remembered all the time.”

Xiangli Che also nodded.

"But our Qin Mo family is now. You have also seen that this organization is gone now. Only the descendants of the former Mo family's great sons are still alive. There are no more Mohist disciples in the Qin State."

"Prince, what do you want to do with the Qin Mo family?"

Fusu asked Xiang Liche, "Now, I am willing to give the Mohist family a chance to realize their original ideal of joining the Qin Dynasty. It depends on whether you, the descendants of the great sons of the Mohist family, are willing to help me."

Xiangliche looked at Fusu.

The clouds in the sky stopped moving, the grass and trees were frozen, and the aroma of wine floated on the table. Xiangli Che felt that something in his body was beginning to boil.

"Advocating the virtuous, advocating unity, universal love, non-aggression, economical use, economical burial, heaven's will, Minggui, non-happiness, non-fate. These are the Mohist slogans. In my opinion, every slogan is for the sake of the common people. ”

"I want to realize the ideals of your ancestors."

Xiangli Che still felt unbelievable. To be honest, Qin State ate and absorbed the Mo family, including their flesh and bones, for a hundred years.

If his surname hadn't been Xiangli, he would have long forgotten that he was a descendant of the Mo family. His external identity is always the creation left by his ancestors!

"Prince, can you accept the idea of ​​universal love?" Xiangli Chai was in the strict hierarchical official system of the Qin State, and he felt very clearly about the oppression between levels.

In a country like Qin that emphasizes an extreme hierarchical system and integrates the military and civilians, universal love is simply impossible.

Even Xiang Liqin believed that the ideal social form of universal love must be realized in a peaceful, stable and abundant country.

The Qin Mo family gave up on universal love.

"Mozi put forward these ideas for the sake of the common people: respecting the virtuous, advocating unity, universal love, non-aggression, economical use, economical burial, heaven's will, Minggui, non-joy, and non-fate. Each of them is actually aimed at the nobles. "

"When the old order has become unbreakable, in order to solve one extreme, one has no choice but to go to the other extreme. Mozi's idea of ​​extreme equality was to force Zhou's aristocracy."

Xiangliche was even more surprised when he heard this.

The king became famous in Qin for digging up his own ancestral graves. He vigorously executed, excluded and abandoned the nobles of Qin. Why did he get to the prince's place and become even crazier?

He actually actually approved of the outrageous idea of ​​universal love.

"However, we Mohists later saw for ourselves through practice that universal love is impossible." Xiang Liche was well aware of Mohist classics, technology and even the actual operation of Qin's political system, so he responded very quickly.

"Prince, our Mohist family has indeed put forward many ideas. But the most valuable thing passed down to us by our founder is not these ten slogans, but hard work and practice."

“You won’t know until you do it.”

"This is what the founder Mozi said most often."

"Universal love is impossible to achieve. I think it may not be possible to achieve non-attack in the future."

Xiangli Che said while stroking his beard.

Fusu looked at Xiang Liche and said, "Don't deny it in a hurry."

"As Mozi said, you can only know by doing."

"Legalists say that techniques are used to identify traitors, and punishments are used to stop punishments. Only war can end wars. I can guarantee that when Juzi Xiangli Qin came to Qin, his wish to have the world not to attack can definitely be realized."

No matter who said this, Xiang Liche would think that the other person was talking nonsense, but when Fusu said it, the effect was different.

Xiang Liche's eyes were shining.

"As for universal love, people really cannot love everyone equally. So what do you think of the ethical and orderly love advocated by Confucianism?"
