Mohist Tang

Chapter 614


“True filial piety!”

Li Shimin couldn’t help being muttered.

Even the officials were not only silent, but Mo Dun ruthless exposed the utilitarian and formalized filial piety today, and proposed true filial piety.

When children feel unsatisfactory, they are called unfilial! There are even more people who do filial piety for their own reputation, harsh parents before death, many people spend extravagantly after death, organize funerals, and do filial piety before others! Is this true filial piety?

Although this is the idea of the Mohist Family’s burial, Mo Dun extended it to filial piety during his lifetime, but the idea of burial after death made everyone think deeply.

Li Shimin couldnt help but sigh with emotion: Filial piety is the purest thing in the world, but now its mixed with utilitarianism. The essence of righteousness.”

Li Shimin is not familiar with this phenomenon.

“Reporting to Your Majesty, nowadays filial piety is mixed with utilitarian benefits, but it guides the people all over the world to uphold filial piety, which is conducive to enlighten the people, and overall, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.” Surprisingly, Zhangsun Wuji Suddenly speak for Confucianism.

A group of literati couldnt help but moved towards Zhangsun Wuji and cast gratitude. Li Shimin couldnt help being nodded. It must be said that Xiaoyi occupies a central position in the Chinese civilization. No matter any dynasty, filial piety will be strongly advocated. Righteousness.

Mo Dun gave Zhangsun Wuji an unexpected glance, but took advantage of the situation and said: “The youngster also agrees with Zhangsun Wuji’s point of view. It is precisely because of the wide spread of “The Book of Filial Piety” that the Chinese civilizations father is kind and filial The family ethics. However, its too late. Now everyone has a prejudiced understanding of filial piety, and there are many ridiculous things about filial piety. The minister again urges Your Majesty to personally preface the filial piety and re-read the “filial piety” for the world. The common people take the name of filial piety!”

The filial piety circulated in later generations is the version of the preface written by Emperor Li Longji of the Tang Ming Dynasty. Today, Mo Dun will review the “Book of Filial piety” in advance for several decades, based on the experience of Li Er I am afraid that the harsh filial ethics that children must obey their parents.

Li Shimin immediately eyes shined. He killed his brother and prisoner because he was criticized by the world for his filial piety. If he could personally preface the filial piety and review the filial scriptures, he would definitely change his image, Mo Duns The suggestion can be said to be in his arms.

“Chancellor Mo said that Your Majesty re-reviewed the filial piety scriptures. It is really the best candidate.” Zhangsun Wuji naturally knew Li Shimin’s intentions and agreed with him.

Other Important Ministers have echoed one after another. Since the Confucian and Mohist two are in dispute over filial piety, it would be better for Li Shimin to come forward and resolve it.

Even the civil officials had nodded approval. After all, this was the best result, and with Li Shimin’s re-edited preface to the “Book of Filial Piety” its reputation must be like the sun at high noon.

Li Shimin’s spirits were shocked, and his face was cheerful and said: “In that case, for the sake of filial piety in the world, I will do my part.”

Mo Dun said again: “apart from this Youngster believes that filial piety and unfilial piety should be redefined in the Tang law. Some people who abuse elders and fail to support their parents will be severely punished, and some filial people will be rewarded. Only by punishing evil and promoting good can the Great Tang filial piety spread. All over the world.”

Entire Court’s ministers couldn’t help but glance at Mo Dun unexpectedly. Such suggestion is a good way.

Li Shimin nodded, facing Fang Xuanling nodded and said: “Leave this matter to Minister Fang and add it to Zhenguan Law!”

Fang Xuanling nodded and said: “Chen Take the lead!”

It happens that the Law of Zhenguan is being revised now, and it will not cost much to change it.

Kong Yingda’s face suddenly became bitter. Originally, filial piety was a tool of Confucianism. Now it has been added to the Great Tang law. I am afraid that the School of Legalism will also be mixed with it. As a weapon, I’m afraid I will be at a loss.

Li Shimin couldn’t help sighing. After reviewing the “Book of Filial Piety” and following the guidelines of the Great Tang Law, I have to say that Mo Dun is not only neat, but also means one after another, and it is quite feasible.

However, as an emperor, he is not just talking about right and wrong, and he is also concerned about the huge team of civil servants in the Imperial Court. He now looks at Mo Dun and said: “Mo Dun, I want to die early in Mo Lie. Even if you do not violate filial piety, as an official of the Imperial Court, you have short hair, which corrupts my Chinese etiquette and fines me for half a year. Warn others from following bad examples!”

Li Shimin cuts hair directly It is not defined as filial piety, but in fact it has already expressed its attitude. The half-year penalty is actually an explanation to a group of civil officials.

“Ah!”

Mo Dun was shocked and looked at Li Shimin dissatisfiedly. His salary was already low, but now he has been fined for half a year. Isn’t it even worse.

But when he saw Li Shimins sharp eyes, he finally reluctantly said: “The minister knows his fault!”

During the Western Expedition, he didnt get anything. A little bit of oil and water, but just returned to Chang’an City and was fined for half a year on the basis of the original fine. His promised bride price is still far away. Sometimes he doubts that Li Shimin did it intentionally and specifically fined him.

Although the civil officials had no choice but to swallow this bitter fruit, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Confucianism was a complete defeat in this debate. Li Shimin’s punishment of Mo Dun was just the last of Confucianism. It’s just a fig leaf. If Confucianism is ignorant, I’m afraid it will lose face.

Since then, numerous officials discussed matters as usual, and Mo Duns hair cut, no one in the Imperial Court mentioned it again, even if Mo Duns flat head was as dazzling as a 100-watt light bulb in later generations, Kong Yingda only I can break my teeth and swallow in my stomach.

Li Shimin saw this and had to hurriedly end the Imperial Court Assembly.

“Retreat!”

When Mo Dun heard these two words, he immediately disappeared as quickly as possible, and asked Li who was going to find Mo Dun to talk about the recruit plan. Jing was disappointed.

Mo Dun not at all walked far, just not far from the Tai Chi Hall, and saw the maids of Changle Palace waiting by the side, and immediately moved towards Changle Hall with a swagger.

“Brother-in-law is here!”

In the Changle Palace, the princesses who had been waiting here saw Mo Dun’s arrival. There was a sudden uproar and they rushed out of the palace gate. Seeing Mo Dun’s tall and straight figure, with a flat head, when walking towards the Changle Palace, eyes shined suddenly.

At this moment, Princess Changle looked shy, but she greeted her with firm steps. Behind her head, the pony tail made of waist-length hair swayed.

“You cut the ponytail!”

Mo Dun saw this elf-like woman, walking step by step with her ponytail, and the world and previous life memory suddenly appeared Sorry.

Princess Changle proudly shook the head Ponytail and asked: “Not good?”

Mo Dun’s voice suddenly became hoarse, but he firmly said: “Good-looking! This is the sky Its the best haircut underneath.”

It was not the ponytail hairstyle familiar to later generations that moved Mo Dun more, but Princess Changle unconditionally believed in him, and cut her hair at the same time. How can this trust not move Mo Dun.

“I am lucky to have a woman like this!” Mo Dun secretly said in one’s heart.

The two immediately stood side by side, and the princesses suddenly discovered that Mo Dun and Princess Changle are a match made in heaven with a pony tail and a ponytail.
