warring states careerist

Chapter 61
After these stormy words, most Mohists clamored and supported Shi's opinion.

Sheng Chuo really didn't expect this to happen. He had no grievances or enmities with him. He had never met him before, and now he praised him a few times when they met, and finally gave him a good-sounding sentence.

But this person was like a mad dog, he didn't appreciate it at all, and directly reprimanded him, making him sound like that kind of scheming person.

Every word punishes the heart, and every word is hard to refute.

Sheng Chuo recalled carefully, did he ever hurt this person's parents?Sleep with this person's sister?Or throw the man's child down the well?

But none of them, how can I say that I am also from a small noble family background, how could I have had an intersection with this kind of person before?Could it be that this person is really a jealous person?

Sheng Chuo gritted his teeth and asked, "Shi, what enmity do I have with you?"

Shi turned around and asked, "Do people today have any enmity with Xia Jie, Shang Zhou? If not, why do they insult and accuse them but praise the holy king? Without enmity, can't they point out what others are doing wrong?"

When Sheng Chuo heard this, he was furious, and no longer cared about it, he looked up to the sky and laughed wildly: "Xia Jie and Shang Zhou? Xia Jie and Shang Zhou?"

"Duanmuci once said: It's better to be evil than to be evil. It is because a gentleman is evil that he lives in the low class, and all the evil in the world belongs to him! I couldn't understand this sentence before, but now I finally understand it!"

Zigong's words mean that the dirty water on King Zhou's body may not all be true.It's just that he lost momentum, the wall fell and everyone pushed, and all kinds of shit basins were pinned on King Zhou.Therefore, as a human being, you must not lose your power. Once you lose your power, you will be charged with various crimes.

Although the fifteenth ancestor of Confucius was the second elder brother of King Zhou with the same father and mother, Zigong said this, and there may be some affection in it, but it is still very reasonable from this sentence alone.

All kinds of things in later generations have also verified this sentence, which is indeed too reasonable.

After Sheng Chuo laughed and said the very reasonable words of Zigong, he sighed and said: "In the sense of Mohists, I have already lived in the low class, and I am surrounded by Mohists. Of course I should bear the guilt, otherwise you How can you believe that what you did was wrong?"

"Only if I am wrong, you can think that you are right. Only if I am a bad person, you are the good person who punishes the bad person!"

"But in terms of the world, isn't the righteousness of the Mohists just indecent? Going against the principles of the world, thinking that the noble is not always noble, the cheap is not always cheap, love the world at the same time, and treat the king, this is the indecent trend of thought in the world! One day, you mohists, all the evil in the world will come to you!"

After saying these words that have completely torn his face out, Shi knew that Shengchuo would no longer be in the team of Mo Zhe anyway, and even if he didn't leave, the remaining Mo Zhe would force him to leave.

But what he said is not wrong, these thoughts of the Mohists are indeed not the mainstream of thought in the world.It's okay now, but once the situation becomes strong, all the evil in the world will come to him.

Sheng Chuo stared viciously at Shi, and said: "You start with this, and you must end with this. You begin with this! You must end with this!"

"Shoemaker Shi, I still give you this sentence! If you treat me like this today, someone will treat you like this one day!"

"Raised by Jishan, he died under the arrows of soldiers; King Zhou made cannons, and died in the fire of Lutai; Evil came to fight tigers with empty hands, and finally died in the hands of warriors wearing tiger skins! One day you will be like I'm the same today! Someday!"

This is a curse, but also a prophecy.

Prophecy is very scary at this time, especially in Song Dynasty, which believes in ghosts and gods.

But the person he was talking about was Shi, a man who started his fortune by making up prophecies and prophecies.

Shi has never been interested in this kind of prophecy, and doesn't care.

I am a person who makes up prophecies all day long, so why would I care?

Even if it is said that although Chu has three households and that the dead Qin must be Chu, in the eyes of people like Shi who like to erase the beauty, it just proves that the Chu State has not completed the reform of the centralization system until its death, the enfeoffment is serious, and the nobles are hidden.Enfeoffment is easy to restore the country and weak, centralization is easy to replace and strong, that's all.

The centralization reform has not been completed, and the separation of powers is serious. There is really nothing to praise.He doesn't even care if he has verified this, so how can he care about Shengchao's prophecy?
He was also a person with a bit of a bad taste, so he took a pen to write down what Sheng Chuo said just now, held up the bamboo slips and said with a smile: "Leave this as a proof."

All the Mohists were amused by his way of responding with ease, laughing and cursing.

They didn't care that Shengchuo was still there at all, and they all joked, shouting that it would be better to let Shengchuo live a few more years to verify.

At this time, I still care a lot about prophecies. In the Song Dynasty, in Shangqiu, and not long ago, there were also kings who went away to join alliances because of the theory of stars, let alone those who left behind divination prophecies, etc. The customary Yin and Shang adherents.

This performance of appropriateness, in the eyes of these people, is really extremely bold, and it is really the Mohist's view of fate.

Mozi also shook his head with a smile, and he didn't care much about the sentence that you start with this and you will end with this, but thought it was interesting to leave this as a proof.

He didn't look at Sheng Chuo anymore, but said to Shi: "I said, you remember."

All the Mozi held back their laughter, knowing that Zimozi was going to preach righteousness, they all held their breaths.Some people in the back also leaned forward so as not to hear clearly.

Shi picked up the brush, dipped it in the ink, selected a few clean bamboo slips, and waited for Mozi to speak.

Mozi did not talk about righteousness, but about fitness.

"Shi is a new Mohist, fifteen or sixteen years old. In order to promote the benefits of the world and eliminate the disadvantages of the world, no one dispatched him. He just understood the righteousness and went to great lengths to become a Mohist. Listen to me in the Spring Festival last year. Give lectures under the tree, and then go to the village to do justice.”

"A person who is not a Mohist, for the benefit of the world, is willing to suffer from the sun and the wind to blow the crops. What is this? This is to love the world at the same time, and this is to do righteousness without regret. Every Mohist must learn and use This is the way."

"Appropriately loving the world, doing righteousness without regret, in what he did in the village, and in doing righteousness instead of using a hundred gold as a treasure. This is a real Mohist."

"On the other hand, some people, more than ten years before he became a Mohist, prefer salary to righteousness, and forget righteousness for salary. Before a matter, first plan for yourself and think about what benefits you can get. If you have a little ability, you will feel The world is so big that you can’t go anywhere, and you have forgotten the purpose of studying in the first place. This kind of person is a Mohist, but his heart is not a Mohist, at least he cannot be regarded as a true Mohist.”

"When people in the village community talked about Shi, there was no one who didn't admire him, and no one didn't know the righteousness of heaven because of him. Those Mohists who had just met Shi also praised his behavior of not taking a hundred gold."

"The suitable bloodline is not noble, it is just a shoemaker's background, but it can accumulate hundreds of gold in a few months, and can understand the will of heaven that those princes and nobles can't understand, understand the principle of righteousness in the world, and teach the ability of Jiarong. It is also an excellent lesson for some people who are lowly always humble, noble always noble, common people are vulgar and ignorant, businessmen have no temperament, and life and death, rich and honor have destiny."

"I and Shi only met a few times half a year ago. At that time, I only praised him for carving jade, so I went to Qi State and didn't care at all. But he carved himself. He was not an ink artist at that time, but he did it Many Mohists can’t do it. I even forgot that there was such a person in Qi State, and I was a little surprised when I heard Li talk about it when I came back.”

"A person's abilities vary in size, how much intellect is, and the depth of understanding. But people make the best use of them. Every Mohist who is like him is a person who loves all things, a person who is unlucky, and a person who does justice. A person, a person who promotes good and eliminates harm to benefit the world, a true Mohist."

These are the words of Mozi recorded by Shi according to his own behavior and habits. Some words are not the original words, but they are recorded according to his own meaning and written in the words he is familiar with. The overall meaning has not been modified.

At this time, among the previous scholars, Confucius is arrogant and funny. He often jokes with his disciples, plays a little temper when he can't say it, and sometimes says something wronged and arrogant like a child; Mozi is His words are sharp, he rarely jokes with his disciples, and he rarely hides his words, which often hurts people's hearts, but when he encounters something truly praiseworthy, he will often over praise it.

These words of praise for Shi have nothing to do with Shi itself.

He is using the comparison of appropriateness and superiority to educate his disciples.

A win is gone, and a fit is here.

One is an official Mohist for more than ten years, and the other is a lonely person who claims to be Mohist for half a year.

One forgets justice for the sake of salary, and the other doesn't care about a hundred gold at all for the sake of righteousness.

One can be regarded as a low-level nobleman, and the other is a shoemaker who is a shoemaker of the third-to-last class of untouchables.

All kinds of comparisons can be almost completely reversed from bloodlines to behaviors, and it is also the best example for educating disciples.

Shi is not dead, it takes a lot of courage to say these words at this time, and it also puts more pressure on Shi.

But Mozi still decided to speak.

Geng Zhuzi, the disciple he once valued, needs to use scolding to spur continuous efforts.

And Mozi believes that for such a person, when necessary, use praise to keep him working hard.

Both are whips, but one is scolding and the other is praise.

The form is different, but the essence is the same.

He knows that people can change, and what is right at this time may not be what is right in the future, but what is right at this time is indeed worth comparing with Shengchao.

Except for Qin Huali, those who received the most praise from Mozi died young.

Gong Shangguo, who was praised by Mozi for knowing the origin of things without needing to read books, died of malaria that was prevalent in Wuyue.

Gao Shizi, who was once a minister of the state of Wei, gave up his salary and left the state of Wei because the king of Wei did not follow the righteousness of Mozi, traveled south with Mozi, and died of illness in Luguan of Chu.

Wei Jun, who spoke with a pair of tongues, thought that Gao Shizi was a great talent and hired Guan Qianyu, who could argue with 54 all day long, died in a civil strife before Qi.

If Gao Shizi was still alive at this time, Mozi would definitely praise Gao Shizi.Of course, if Gao Shizi was alive, Sheng Chuo would not be able to come forward.

Fortunately, the appearance of Shi Shi gave Mo Zi a more vivid example, which was just right for comparing Sheng Chuo.

The group of disciples pondered Mozi's words carefully, they didn't care about Shengchao who was still on the side, nor did they care about the ironic Shengchao in Mozi's words.

For Mo Zi, Sheng Chuo is no longer a Mohist, but his actions are enough to be a warning to Mohist.

So before he expels Shengchao from the Mohist team, he should be punished with this kind of irony and comparison, not for a single Shengchao, but for the sake that the more than 300 Mohist players present no longer have Shengchao.

Punishment is not for punishment, but for no more punishment.

Punishment itself is not directed against the erring, but against those who have not committed the erroneous.Therefore, the punishment for those who make mistakes depends on how we can not punish others in the future, rather than treating the people who make mistakes to the extreme.

Why bother to bring back those who are bound to be lost?

Those who have not yet lost must hope not to follow the path of the lost.
