Chang'an.
Qinglong Temple.
After a period of preparation and the preparation of some elementary scholars, young Confucian scholars, etc., Zheng Xuan was also preparing to start to make the right decision in the Qinglong Temple in Chang'an.
Before Zheng Xuan ascended the stadium, almost all other people's activities stopped, just like a brief calm before the variation, or a subconscious hiding of weakness when the boss appeared.
For most Han Dynasty students, Zheng Xuan was an unsurpassable peak.
Even if Mr. Shui Jing grind his teeth and muttered for many years, he still cannot surpass this. Sometimes, it is not said that pure effort can do everything. Basically, if one needs one hundred points to achieve a career, then personal efforts account for at least eighty points, but going up to eighty points is personal talent...
For example, some people are good at mathematics and have very strong mental arithmetic skills. They can calculate the final money without a cashier when they go to the supermarket to buy things, while others are irritated when they encounter calculations. After calculating the previous number, they forget the next number. Without a calculator, they will be a gloomy life. Perhaps the latter can reach 70% or 80% of the former level through a lot of effort, but it will be very difficult to continue to move forward.
The same is true for Confucian scriptures. If you want to read and recite them thoroughly and reach a level of 70% or 80% and take hard work, less than two years or less than twenty years, you can generally become a bookworm, but you need to flexibly apply them from books, quote them widely, or even verify them, and innovate them, not everyone can do it.
Zheng Xuan is almost a top figure in the classics of classics in the present Han Dynasty. This is not only because Zheng Xuan can read and recite scriptures carefully, but because Zheng Xuan can integrate them and reach the realm of great success in Confucianism.
"Only, Wang Jianguo, distinguished himself from the right position, established the country's economy, and set up officials and divided the positions to make the people the most. He then established the heavenly officials to be the chief minister, and ordered his subordinates to take charge of the country's rule, and assisted Wang and his country..."
Zheng Xuan sat on the platform, talking and talking. Every time he said something, his disciple Guoyuan recited loudly again so that all the children around him could hear it. Of course, it was a very tedious thing that most people could not do, and they could sniff it in just a few seconds. Guoyuan obviously had practiced it before, so his voice was not only loud, but also had clear pronunciation. Even if he was far away, he could hear it in general.
The reason for this is generally because Zheng Xuan said that lowness is something that some people subconsciously repeat, some people sigh, and some people can’t help but show off. Even if everyone’s voice is low, it will buzz around the periphery...
Another point is that the accents of different places are slightly different. The accent of Luoyang in Guanzhong is obviously the orthodox Han Dynasty. But if it comes from the marginal areas, it is naturally possible to adapt.
On the other side of the platform, in a wing room separated by the wall and the corridor, there were two people listening quietly.
On the table, there is a lot of tea.
Of course, Fei Qian did not sit down. On the one hand, it was to avoid any leader leaving first, and on the other hand, it was to hear the truth so that Fei Qian would not be able to come to the scene to decorate and whitewash. Fei Qian immediately withdrew the flag.
Therefore, Fei Qian did not inform anyone, secretly took Xu Chu and some guards, and hid far away from Pang Tong in the small room in the side hall of Qinglong Temple. While drinking tea, he listened to Zheng Xuan's lecture on the high platform.
The three rites are "Yi Li", "Zhou Li", and "Book of Rites".
The first two were found before the Han Dynasty, while the Book of Rites appeared in the Han Dynasty, which is probably not much different from the Book of Filial Piety.
Of course, the Three Lis are said to be written by Duke Zhou, and then discussed by Confucius and recorded by his disciples.
But, like most scriptures in the Han Dynasty, this matter is actually not very reliable.
Mr. Zhou was too busy. He not only had to govern the country, but also led troops to fight. Then he had to have a bunch of children at home, inspect the place, and then took time to write a book in his busy schedule, such as writing a peace scripture... Bah, it was the Book of Changes, and the Zhou Li, and he also had to help people interpret dreams...
If you are restless when you sleep, you have to look for Duke Zhou. Do you think Duke Zhou is busy?
So among these books, some were written by Zhou Gong, which is true, but it is said that all belong to Zhou Gong...
Isn’t this just like someone in the future, and everything he says. Who is Zhou, please sit down! Ask yourself, have you said so many things and misunderstood you one or two sentences? Is there any problem?
The book "The Book of Zhou Li" was called "Zhou Guan" in the early Han Dynasty. It was not until Wang Mang took the photo and was changed to "Zhou Li" and then it has been used to this day. As for why Lao Wang wanted to change "official" to "ritual", everyone naturally knows this idea.
The Zhou Li of the Han Dynasty was obtained by King Xian of Hejian, Liu De, from the folk...
Then I have to say that Liu De, well, without Hua, just the word Liu De.
Liu De is Liu Qi's second son. He and his eldest son Liu Rong both came out of the same mother. Liu De also had a younger brother. The three brothers were all the same mother, occupying the top three of Liu Qi's royal bloodline.
But what is very interesting is that after Liu Qi, the tenth son of the emperor inherited the throne, which is the famous Emperor Wu of Han...
As the eldest son of the emperor, Liu Rong was sent to Hejian because of his irritable mother Li Ji's tricks and was eventually deposed. Liu De was also sent to Hejian.
In this context, a King of Hejian gained a lot of reputation among Confucianism. Not only did he personally meet ordinary Confucians, but he even had no standard of eating more than guests. Then, Liu De presented Liu Che with the "Book of Zhou"...
Liu Che took it with a smile and immediately threw it into the secret palace for refrigeration. It was not until the reign of Emperor Cheng of Han that Liu Xiang and Liu Xin and his son's school secretary Liu Xin re-listed them again.
The reason is naturally remarkable. So if it is said that "The Book of Zhou" was written by Mr. Zhou himself, it would be a joke, but it cannot be said that it is all fake. After all, Confucius also traveled around the countries and praised the Book of Zhou. Well, from this perspective, Liu De presented the Book of Zhou at that time and then Liu Che threw the Book of Zhou, which was a good hand!
Just like at the moment, Fei Qian pushed Zheng Xuan forward to play cards, which was actually almost a similar purpose.
What is Zhou Li? Simply put, it is the rules for being an official.
"The words of the Three Etiquettes are not Zheng Gong..." Fei Qian listened for a while and said with some emotion, "If you recite the topic carefully, there are many capable people in the guarding mountain palace. However, if you want to be proficient in quoting, citing scriptures and historical books, and correcting theories of various schools of thought... I am afraid that the world will not be able to go to the right..."
Pang Tong nodded, and then said, "Just like this sentence, "Let the people promote wise men, and send them to the people to strengthen them; let the people promote their abilities, and send them to govern them." Zheng Gong quoted Lao Tzu's words to explain, "The sage has no permanence and takes the heart of the people as the heart." This is wonderful. To govern the people, we should value the hearts of the people. There are no leftovers in ancient and modern times, and we can govern them..."
Fei Qian nodded.
Zheng Xuan was not only familiar with the Three Literatures, but also proficient in Huang Lao, but even involved some of the Legalists, peasants, soldiers and soldiers astronomical calendars, etc. So when explaining the Three Literatures, he often involved these contents and explained them, which caused a burst of discussion and amazement from the audience.
After listening for a while, Fei Qian suddenly laughed and said, "Mr. Zheng has changed here..."
Pang Tong also turned his head and listened, and after a moment he laughed and said, "Yes, it's different from what Mr. Zheng said last time."
Speaking of which, Zheng Xuan changed his words now, because Fei Qian.
Prophecy and divination.
This thing was pulled by Fei Qian Yiyi, and was a little separated from the serious literature. Although it was not completely removed, it was much stronger than the previous parasitic state.
Religion is religion, and academic is academic.
For the time being, if the productivity and cognitive level are not met, some unknown things can be attributed to religious mysticism, but it cannot be said that it depends on mysticism to explain everything. Because human nature is lazy and greedy. If you find a way to save trouble, you will naturally choose a way to save trouble. If nothing explains nothing, you will be classified as a religious system that is mysterious. It is obviously a relatively "future-saving" way. So what do you need to work hard to study and develop new technologies?
When the religion is in great power, it is not just Brother Paine who is burned to death. Ah? If you haven’t burned to death, just think it’s burned. Anyway, barbecue is very skilled in religion.
And there are other problems here, and Fei Qian is also preparing...
Originally, when Zheng Xuan and Fei Qian first talked about the Book of Rites, whether it was a preview or early communication, Zheng Xuan also received some influences from previous trends, using prophecies and divinations to annotate the "Li of Zhou" and constructing his ritual system.
There are five emperors, five emperors and five sense gods in "The Book of Zhou".
At that time, Zheng Xuan thought that Fei Qian had introduced the Five God Cult, so he thought that Fei Qian was also slightly inclined toward the mysterious prophecy and divination. Therefore, Zheng Xuan said this at that time, "Five Emperors, Cang said Lingwei Yang, Taihao ate it; Chi said Chi Qingqian, Yan Emperor ate it; Huang said Han Shun, Huang Emperor ate it; Bai said Bai Zhaojue, Shaohao ate it; Black said Yu Guangji, Zhuanxu ate it...
Zheng Xuan's explanation is that there are five spirit emperors in the sky and five emperors below. He was born by his mother who was born by the psyche of the Five Emperors. The Five Emperors are the sons of the Five Heavenly Emperors. The Five Emperors have five senses below, and after their five senses die, they will be five gods. During the sacrifice, the five gods each eat their emperor.
It seems that there is no problem. The five gods are famous, origin and even direction, just like real things, but they are actually fictional. This statement comes from the messy "Spring and Autumn Weiyuan Mingbao", "Spring and Autumn Weiwen Yaohou", "Yiwei Gan Jidu", etc. related to "River Tu".
Although Zheng Xuan’s previous statements can also be used to explain “Five Emperors, Five Emperors and Five Character Gods”, Fei Qian clearly stated that it was inappropriate.
"Governing the country has regularity, but benefiting the people is the basis; politics and religion have classics, so that behavior is in order." Fei Qian said to Zheng Xuan at that time, "If it is beneficial to the people, there is no need to follow the ancients; if Zhou is concerned, there is no need to follow the old... The five directions of Zhou may not necessarily be the Five Emperors of the Han Dynasty, and there is no need to impose supporting meetings."
Zheng Xuan carefully prepared the "Annotation of the Five Directions and Five Emperors" was actually "far-fetched" by Fei Qian, which made Zheng Xuan a little embarrassed, but there was no way. After all, Fei Qian had the final say on Fei Qian's territory. In addition, the first Qinglong Temple Theory also officially confirmed that prophecies and divinations were prophecies and divinations, and scriptures were scriptures, so we must "seek truth and truth", so Zheng Xuan now had to change the original "theory of heaven and earth to the "unknown theory of distant regions"...
Huaxia is naturally the Central Emperor, but there are four emperors in the other four directions, living in a very distant unknown place. The emperors in the Four Directions were driven away by Yanhuang back then, so naturally there will be an official system like Yanhuang to build a huge world...
Therefore, people in all directions are enemies and friends. If the middle is weak and the four directions are strong, then the four directions are in charge. If the middle is strong and the four directions are weak, then the middle is in charge, and so on.
Such a statement is to detach from the original prophecies and divination. Although it cannot avoid carrying some mysterious smell, at least the core of it has changed from the original determined and unchangeable to the unknown, which may cause changes.
This is the real "Zhou Li".
Even if Master Zhou held it at home for three years and three years, and finally pulled it out with a pen in one hand and a carving knife in the other, what was the purpose of Master Zhou's practice of Master Zhou's first?
It's fun to write?
No, it’s setting rules and setting standards!
So a thousand years ago, Master Zhou had already understood the importance of standards and practiced them. As a result, in later generations, he was pressed on his head and stuck on his neck by the standards of the East and the West. I don’t know if Master Zhou knew about it under the spring, and would he angrily lift the coffin board?
From a tribe to a country, it is like from a small local enterprise to a country, or even a large multinational group. What is the most important thing in this process?
Talent?
Perhaps, but not the most important.
After all, who said the saying "talent is the most important"? Uncle Ge! Then he just knows what the end of Uncle Ge who values ​​talents will be?
Therefore, rules are important! Standards are important! How to better use talents is more important than simply pursuing talents! In addition to freaks like Fei Qian, how can we ensure that the so-called talents will not touch the breasts of female subordinates after they arrive at the branch, will not greed for the company's money, will not report fake accounts, and will not inflated expenses?
The more talented you are and the smarter you are, the easier it is to discover loopholes in the company!
If you don’t set the rules first and determine the standards first, it will be inevitable that you will be fooled.
And Zheng Xuan’s annotation this time is not only the “unknown”, but also the “replaceable”!
Even the Gods of the Five Directions take turns to serve as the tyrants. What are the advantages of "hereditary" for the lower five directions?
Rules and standards change according to the times. If you want to not be replaced, you must make efforts.
Just like what Fei Qian was doing in Longxi and Longyou, at the beginning, there were a lot of officials who thought they were very stable and felt that Fei Qian had no choice but to deal with them. Even if they replaced a small group, there was a large area to beg for luck. At most, a few minions were arrested to warn them. At most, the others were just scolding them and they were done...
So when Longyou and Longxi were in chaos at the beginning, all the officials were not afraid, and they all felt that they would not be so unlucky. Maybe they just needed to be more concealed and not the most casual one, so they would be fine.
But unexpectedly, Fei Qian had already prepared the manpower, and directly transferred it from Guanzhong Sanfu and Hedong, and then replaced it directly from top to bottom. One county, one county was replaced, from the county magistrate to the county magistrate, from the warehouse to the household official, all of them were replaced!
The officials in Longyou and Longxi were immediately stunned...
In fact, how many real officials are there in a county?
In the Han Dynasty, a large county, that is, more than ten thousand households, was called county magistrates, and became county magistrates under ten thousand households. However, their powers were similar, and they were all the highest commanders of a county, and they also had the title of state, town, and Tao. The country was a marquis, the country was the fief of the empress, empress dowager, and princess. The territory was inhabited by ethnic minorities in the territory was called Tao.
Among such counties, in addition to the county magistrate and county magistrate, there are the history of Gongcao and the chief minister. The county magistrate is in charge of county military affairs, and sometimes the county magistrate serves as the county magistrate. Then there are the county magistrate, the chief clerk, the court clerk (or others serves as the joint), the chief clerk, and the Shaofu.
As for the lower reaches of the school, they are basically inferior officials, and there is no fixed number. Simply put, they are temporary workers, the kind of big deal hired by the county magistrate and magistrate.
Simply put, in a county, there are about six to eight officials, and as long as a four-person team is sent, they can take over and replace them completely! Then, relying on the power of the surrounding army, the replaced officials do not even need to bring any special guards. After all, being replaced is just a personal loss of office. If you cause trouble, the result will be a family raid and extermination of the clan!
Therefore, when the officials in Longxi and Longyou saw that Linjing and other counties were replaced, they immediately became obedient. Those who admit their mistakes and those who surrendered, in order to maintain their position, they performed a thousand times more diligence than usual...
Once you do things seriously, things will naturally be easier to handle. The original difficulties are no longer insurmountable or impossible to solve, and you have come up with solutions that you could not think of before.
This is very interesting.
Is it easier, or is it smarter? Or is it both, or is it neither?
Sometimes that's it.
Fei Qian stood up and said it was OK. He was ready to go back. Compared with Pang Tong and others, his fatigue was not about handling specific matters, but about thinking about the overall planning. Others can assist, but it cannot be replaced.
If it cannot be replaced, it is precious, and if it can be replaced, there is nothing to be complacent.
For these officials, it is not that there is nothing to do, that it is not that they can’t change anything, nor that they say anything, but that they say something. These smart officials will naturally find ways to change their thinking for the sake of the official hat. If they just listen to these officials saying something, and don’t really take a look, then how can they understand the truth and how can they make a decision?
Just like this Qinglong Temple Grand Theory, Fei Qian would come secretly and leave quietly, otherwise he would just listen to his subordinates’ descriptions? What is it? Then whether the subordinates could understand what Zheng Xuan said was one thing, and whether he could express it to the key points was another matter.
The officials below said there was no problem, but it was really no problem?
If you let others say anything, what do you need to do with your own brain?
Fei avoided the crowd and walked out.
Anyway, the planning architect of Qinglong Temple is right next to you. Of course, the pavilions and pavilions in Qinglong Temple are clear. He took Fei Qian around and turned left and right, avoiding the noisy main venue area, and then exiting Qinglong Temple through the side door.
"Prime Minister Cao did indeed take action..." Fei Qian said as he walked, "Now I just want to see how this group of people will respond..."
Pang Tong said from the side, "Prime Minister Cao pried open the Xun family fortress, and Yuzhou was shocked...but these people may not be willing to give up..."
Chapter completed!
