Saint of the Confucian way

Fang Yun's handling methods have been highly recognized by both the government and the public. Even Yang Xuwen, an auxiliary minister who obviously prefers the royal family, publicly praised Fang Yun for his clear vision and pure heart in this matter, which is a real example of all officials.

Some of the censors of the supervisory yuan regretted not being able to report first, and some were jealous of Luo Yu's evaluation. However, most of them recognized Fang Yun's handling method, believed that Fang Yun made the most correct demonstration for the cabinet, and gave the supervisory yuan the most fair treatment on the premise of ensuring the high independence of the supervisory yuan.

Therefore, he Mingxiang, the censor in charge of the supervisory yuan, issued an order to the censors of Beijing, Dongyun Prefecture and Yanzhou, asking them to report the officials who violated the ceremony as soon as possible and perform their due duties.

Several imperial censors objected because they knew that the imperial censor in charge of the court was paying back for his kindness and deliberately avoided Mizhou, Xiangzhou and Jiangzhou.

However, he Mingxiang did not care about the voice of opposition. As an ordinary censor, he could do whatever he wanted. However, as a supervisory yuan, the daily ceremony continued. Just when everyone thought that the so-called respect ceremony and restoration of antiquity only involved minor details, the promulgation of the twelfth ceremony suddenly became the focus of debate all over the world.

Because this twelfth ceremony requires every grade official to learn the semi Saint son road once a year.

When Zilu was young, his family was poor. He often ate wild vegetables himself, but he would walk hundreds of miles away to buy rice and carry it home for his parents to eat good meals.

Later, Zilu received Confucius' education and became a senior official. He often missed his parents. He once said that although he can taste wild vegetables now, he can no longer carry rice for his parents as he did in those years.

The requirement of the twelfth ceremony is that every official with grade should go to a place hundreds of miles away on foot before and after his parents' birthday every year to buy 20 kilograms of rice and carry it home on foot.

Although some officials were dissatisfied with the previous eleven rites, none of them stood up against them. However, on the day of the promulgation of the twelfth rites, many officials objected and believed that it was not suitable to implement the old rites.

On the court the next day, the twelfth ceremony became the focus of debate among officials.

Among those who oppose it, some believe that this kind of respect is a waste of time. If you really want officials to be filial, it is enough to carry meters and ten miles.

Some people give examples. It takes ten hours to go a hundred miles away, wasting a whole day and returning the next day, which is equivalent to wasting two days in vain. In case of failure to deal with major events in time, who will bear the responsibility?

Some people say that Fang Yun is tossing all officials. Some officials are in poor health. If they want to walk 200 miles on foot, they are likely to be tired to death. This is the biggest unfilial.

Supporters have.

Some people think that if an official can't walk 200 miles for two days, it's better to resign and go home. Without a strong body, how can he handle complex government affairs.

Some people think that Fang Yun is not bothering officials, but just making officials become an example of the people. Moreover, he only delays two days a year and can give officials two days off. If every official can do this, the people will naturally be moved and will be filial.

Others believe that Zilu is a semi saint, a disciple of Confucius and one of the ten philosophers of Confucius. As long as we learn from him, we can't go too far. If officials can't even recite two hundred miles, doesn't it mean that it's wrong for the holy court to ask the great Confucian to go out for experience?

Chaotang fell into a quarrel.

However, some officials have never expressed their opposition or support, because they always feel that the purpose of Fang Yun's ceremony is not simple. They will never make a statement until the dust is settled.

Some officials have repeatedly thought about Li Wenying's words these days and finally chose to believe Li Wenying and Fang Yun, so they remain silent at present.

What's more strange is that although many officials opposed it, none of the senior officials at or above the third grade were exported. Even Sheng Boyuan, the Minister of rites who firmly supported the royal family, did not oppose it, and even occasionally showed a sneer, as if he was eager for the implementation of the 12th ceremony of Fang Yun.

Without the obstruction of senior officials and the royal family, the twelfth ceremony was officially sealed as a royal order, which must be carried out by every official.

As a result, more and more officials began to be dissatisfied with Fang Yun, and even some officials publicly criticized Fang Yun on the list. However, they were very careful in their words and sentences. There were no foul language and fictional facts. It was a legitimate criticism. This was the right given to scholars by the holy Academy. Fang Yun and the imperial censor could not punish officials as evidence.

That is, on the day when the twelfth ceremony was officially implemented, Fang Yun did not announce the thirteenth ceremony, but announced that he adapted the twenty-four filial piety into a simple and easy to understand picture of twenty-four filial piety, listing 24 stories of filial piety to his parents in history.

Fang Yun was directly published on the discussion list and soon spread all over the world.

This "twenty four filial piety diagram" was very good at the beginning. The first filial piety is filial piety moving the sky. The protagonist is Ming junshun. Even if he was framed by his parents, he did not fight back. After becoming the son of heaven, he was still filial to his parents.

The second filial piety is to entertain the parents. A man named Lao laizi often wears colored clothes to amuse his parents even when he is over 70. On another occasion, Lao laizi accidentally fell down. Afraid of his parents' worry, he immediately learned from his children to cry, but amused his parents.

The following filial piety stories are very normal, including the story of Zilu Baili negative meter.

However, when people saw the ninth filial piety story, their reactions were different, so that the whole list soon became a battlefield.

The ninth filial piety story is burying children and serving their mother.

In the Han Dynasty, there was a man named Guo Ju. His family was poor. After his wife gave birth to a child, Guo Ju was afraid that his mother would not be able to eat when the food at home fed the child, so he decided to bury and kill the child.

As a result, when he dug a hole to bury his children, he found gold, so Guo Ju said that his filial piety moved heaven. Heaven let him dig gold, so he put away the gold, no longer killed his son, went home to raise his son and support his mother.

Although Guo Ju didn't kill his son in the end, Fang Yun regarded this story as a model of filial piety, which caused great controversy.

Because this matter has also caused controversy in Shengyuan mainland. Some people think Guo Ju is a model of filial piety, some people think Guo Ju is an animal, others suspect that Guo Ju is to cover up the unknown origin of gold, and some people think Guo Ju fabricated this lie in order to obtain the recommendation of officials.

In short, whether it is on the list or Jingguo chaotang, there is a fierce debate on whether it is necessary to popularize the twenty-four filial piety pictures.
