"Killing is not difficult..." Fei Qian sighed softly, "Have you ever touched the blade? The sharp blade can even make you afraid... Well, yes, you can't touch the blade... this sword
Ah, they are all used to kill people... I have already killed a group of people, and maybe I will kill another group... But this is of no use. The same problem still exists, and if the problem is not solved, sooner or later it will happen again.
Intensify... Killing a group of people can alleviate conflicts? Impossible. As long as this kind of problem and contradiction exists, sooner or later it will break out... Those who kill will be killed. If you kill too much, you will make too many enemies.
One day I will die and my family will be destroyed..."
Fei Qian said softly.
Fei Zhen looked at Fei Qian with a pair of round eyes, seeming to understand.
"Do you understand?" Fei Qian also looked at Fei Zhen, "Still don't understand? The big man has declined, and it is difficult to make a comeback. This is a fact, although it is a fact that many people are unwilling to say openly... I also don't understand now.
It’s a headache, do you know? The feudal imperial power system only lasts for three generations at most... Do you know what the feudal imperial power system is?"
"Split the sword?" Fei Zhen moved her arms twice, indicating that she wanted to separate the sword. A five-year-old child can generally speak and express, but his thinking mode is still very weak and cannot understand Fei Qian's words at all.
mean.
Fei Qian laughed.
"What are your husband talking to Zhen'er?" Huang Yueying heard Fei Qian's laughter outside, and she couldn't help but feel happy. She walked in with a smile and asked.
"Father said, we need to separate the swords and then kill people..." Feizhen waved her little arms like a general on the battlefield.
Huang Yueying gave Fei Qian an angry look, "Why did you tell Zhen'er this..."
"Haha, I'm just talking..." Fei Qian smiled and changed the topic, "Has anything interesting happened around Chang'an recently?"
The Mo family brought some manpower, and Fei Qian just gave these men to Huang Yueying, asking her to collect some surrounding information first as a practice. Otherwise, if there are any problems when they are released and they want to take them back and teach them again, it will not only be
It's a joke, and it's hard to correct.
"Interesting? Does it count to slander your husband?" Huang Yueying sat down next to Fei Qian, and then reached out to pour Fei Qian a cup of tea. She also took the time to tidy up Fei Zhen's robes that were a little scattered due to playing.
.
Fei Qian laughed and said, "Forget it! Let's talk about it..."
Huang Yueying asked the maid aside to take Feizhen out to play first, and then slowly said: "Some people are talking about Huang Lao's way..."
"Huang Lao? Why did you suddenly say this?" Fei Qian was a little confused.
Huang Yueying looked at Fei Qian, "Isn't it the "Guangwu God Statue" made by your husband?"
Fei Qian laughed.
"Huang Lao's method has been in decline for more than three hundred years, and I'm afraid it is no longer useful... Ever since Emperor Xiaowu only respected Confucianism, Huang Lao has never had the opportunity to promote inaction governance..." Huang Yueying is not the only one except
Ax and plane, nothing else is known. After all, Huang Chengyan had close contacts with Pang Degong back then, so he knew something about it to some extent.
Fei Qian felt a little funny, "So these Confucian scholars are not worried about this? Are they still guarding against death? This is really..." Fei Qian suddenly realized that Huang Lao, as a school that had been in power, was the largest in the Han Dynasty.
The opposition party, and now both Fei Qian and Pang Tong are under Pang Degong, which naturally attracts the attention of these gentry children. They may even think that the division between Shandong and Shanxi is also a dispute between Huang Lao and Confucianism...
"Actually, Mr. Huang once fought back... When Emperor Xiaocheng came to the throne, the government was weak, so there was a saying that at the end of heaven and earth, he would be ordered by heaven. The emperor of heaven sent a real man's red sperm to come down to earth to teach Taoist Master Gan, and he had to offer "
"Bao Yuan Taiping Jing", with the intention of reviving Huang Lao and persuading the emperor to rule the world by inaction..." Huang Yueying sighed and said, "It's just that the ministers of the current court joined forces to punish Taoist Gan for his crime of "false ghosts and gods to confuse the public."
Killed... Later, when the emperor was mourned, the state affairs in the court became even more chaotic. The disciples of Taoist Gan were unwilling to give in. Haha, they once again used the "Taiping Jing" to persuade the emperor to revive the country... The emperor changed his title to
"Emperors Chen Sheng and Liu Taiping" wanted to rule the country by doing nothing, but under the joint attack of the Confucian scholars, another massacre of heads fell..."
"Later, when Emperor Xiaoxun was in power, the unwilling Taoist priest presented the "Book of Taiping Qingling", saying that it was a divine book that could bring long-lasting peace and order to the world. Emperor Xiaoxun thought it was very good, and asked the ministers to take a look. As a result, the ministers
With the same voice, they all said that this book was monstrous and unreasonable, and they criticized the filial emperor, and then sealed the "Taiping Qingling Book" in Dongguan..."
"The Taiping Jing talks about peace in the country and hopes for peace in the world, but when it comes out, it is often not peaceful..." Fei Qian listened and couldn't help but shook his head, "No one in the court is a fool. Within the brothers,
You can beat people's brains into dogs' heads, but if an outsider shows up... these guys will jump up again and beat the outsider to death together..."
Huang Yueying was silent for a moment and said: "Then, husband, do you really want to revive Mr. Huang and reuse Taoist priests... I heard that those Taoists also gave my husband a very long name..."
"Haha..." Fei Qian laughed dumbly, "Well... Actually, the "god statue" thing is just a target I pushed out... There is a target blocking it, and these people can't see what's behind the target.
Already..."
Fei Qian narrowed his eyes slightly, then laughed again, "Let's not talk about it... Originally, a grander celebration was supposed to be held, but something happened over there in the Western Region... We can only deal with it in a compromise, to make it look more attractive.
It’s solemn, but it shouldn’t be too procrastinating... Can you help me find out which of these elegant songs is better?"
The drumming music of the Han Dynasty was divided into three grades. One was for the royal family and was called "Huangmen drumming". This Huangmen drumming was equivalent to a large band that accompanied the emperor on the side when he entertained his ministers. In total,
There are one hundred and forty-five people, and there is even a special music and dance organization to manage it, which is the Huangmen Propaganda Department.
Naturally, Fei Qian couldn't use such a high-end gadget, so he used the next-level "Yale". Yale was used for sacrifices in suburban temples, spring and autumn feasts, and various large-scale ceremonies held by the court.
In music and dance, many of the musicians are not full-time musicians, but are performed by good family members with a certain status.
For example, it is like a classical symphony orchestra. Although the instruments also include silk and bamboo instruments, the bells and pans are still the main ones. However, unlike pure symphony, Yale usually combines music and dance to perform. Yale
When the music is playing, the dancers advance and retreat in unison, advancing when hearing the drums and retreating when playing the cymbals. The civil and military performance is orderly, the music is harmonious, and the atmosphere is solemn.
Then the next level is the ordinary princes’ banquet, or the musician band at the minister’s private banquet, which is called “secular music”. It is basically equivalent to the so-called pop music in later generations, such as country jazz, blues, etc.
They are all not very high-end "secular music". The musicians are often elites and female musicians living at the bottom of society. Although the instruments are sometimes bells and pans, they are mainly orchestral instruments. The dances are messy and the performances are lively and lively.
.
Finally, folk music, called "drum and percussion music", generally does not have bells and pans. Most of it is played in ensembles or alone with panxiao, transverse flute, bamboo flute, horn, etc. Many of these instruments were also introduced from the Hu people.
, so it is often called "Hu Le". It is basically played in pubs, streets, and other chaotic places. Because the instruments are simple and can be played with just three or five, it is often seen in the military.
Played during the banquet.
"Is the auspicious time determined?" Huang Yueying asked, while hugging Fei Zhen and looking at the documents on the desk, "What about Da Wu, will you be overstepping your bounds? Let's just use Xiao Wu..."
"It's settled... It's the fifth day of July. It's said that there are no taboos and it's suitable to be sealed..." Fei Qian couldn't help but laugh again, "Fortunately, Qinglong Temple still has some information, otherwise Shiyuan would have gone crazy... I'm afraid this trip
When I came down, I lost another chin..." Although Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, and others said there was no rush or rush, and Pang Lingjun took his time, but in reality...
There is no need to worry, even Pang Tong himself is anxious...
"Hi..." Huang Yueying also shook her head, then clicked on the paperwork on the desk, and said, "Let's use the "bow dance", it should look better than the "dry dance"..."
"Oh?" Fei Qian raised his eyebrows, good-looking? That's okay? "But I'm a hussar... shouldn't I use "gan dance" more?" The bo dance is a literary dance, with sixty-four people, one of them
Sixteen people dance with their bows in hand, and Gan dance is also called military dance. As the name suggests, it is a martial dance.
Huang Yueying smiled mischievously: "The so-called martial arts is governed by martial arts. My husband has so many martial arts skills, so it's time for him to be governed by martial arts!"
Fei Qian was stunned for a moment, then laughed, nodded and said: "Yes! Then just use "嗗 dance"!" Fei Qian could generally guess what Huang Yueying meant. The so-called "Wen Zhi Wu Kung" is just an excuse, let alone
In fact, Huang Yueying hopes that Fei Qian can be a little more stable and does not need to continue fighting...
This is a beautiful expectation of Huang Yueying, so there is no need to argue whether we should use literary dance or martial dance, just be happy.
Huang Yueying also smiled, her big eyes widened, and then she couldn't help but come over and hugged one of Fei Qian's arms, like a lazy cat.
Fei Qian raised his head. Although he did not continue to discuss the issue about Huang Lao with Huang Yueying, in fact, this matter was still swirling in his mind.
The shortcomings of Confucianism are actually very obvious...
Take a simple example, such as "filial piety". Filial piety is naturally good, but it is too much emphasis on filial piety, so that it would be meaningless to come up with twenty-four filial piety or thirty-six filial piety. And by extension, funeral expenses
The high status of the people has also become a very acute contradiction in the Han Dynasty to a certain extent.
For ordinary people, family wealth generally ranges from tens of thousands to more than 100,000 yuan. The trend of lavish burials began in the Qin Dynasty and became more and more intense in the Han Dynasty.
In order to bury the dead "honestly", they went bankrupt, sold themselves into slaves, took bribes and perverted the law, and took desperate risks. As a result, the living were often unable to maintain their lives and were in miserable situations. Several emperors of the Han Dynasty targeted this situation.
In order to overcome the shortcomings, they advocated "paying a small amount and ending the life", and even issued edicts and orders, but with little effect.
Because this "filial piety" is the foundation of what Confucianism calls "benevolence" and the most basic requirement for an ordinary person. Even the country uses "filial piety and integrity" to recruit talents, so the more grand the funeral of the parents, the more solemn it is.
Is it "filial piety"?
Can a law curb people's respect for "filial piety"?
As the saying goes, things must be reversed at their extremes. This problem may not have caused serious harm to the country during the period of stability in the Han Dynasty. However, in the current period when the world is uncertain and all kinds of wastes are emerging, this contradiction may become more acute. So, is it possible?
Take advantage of a wave?
Fei Qian stroked the beard on his chin.
At the same time, Confucianism also has a fatal weakness, but it is also the strongest aspect of Confucianism...
As the saying goes, the weakest point is hidden in the strongest point?
Confucianism can be reused by the imperial power because of the so-called "influence between heaven and man" and "the power of the king granted by heaven". At that time, Emperor Xiaowu had a great talent and a great strategy. He needed to attack the Huns from the north and expand the territory. Therefore, if he wanted to have full centralization, he also needed to have
Brand-new academic ideas laid the foundation for national policies across the world. With his support, Dong Zhongshu's Confucianism took off...
But the problem is also here.
In the past, God appointed Emperor Xiaowu, and later Emperor Guangwu. So why didn't he continue to "entrust" Emperor Liu Xie to the current "wise and powerful" emperor?
Who else can defeat the clown?
So, if Liu Xie cannot get the so-called "divine gift" from God, then what is Liu Xie?
If this kind of inference continues, it will inevitably cause some embarrassment. Is there even a possibility that someone will stir up trouble in the name of the so-called "God's gift"? "The sky is dead, and the yellow sky is standing."
Isn’t it a living example?
Liu Xie did not come to Chang'an, otherwise Fei Qian would have started to take advantage of Liu Xie and slap Confucianism on the face... Of course, it would be best for Liu Xie and Confucianism to slap each other, and eventually both sides would be shameless...
Now, the matter regarding the Guangwu Statue can only be put aside for the time being. It even needs to be suppressed, so as not to expose it too early.
While Fei Qian was thinking about it, Huang Yueying, who was not paying attention, raised her face, stared at Fei Qian's expression carefully, and suddenly asked: "What are you thinking about, husband?"
"Ah?" Fei Qian's eyes shook, "I didn't think about anything... Well, I was thinking about the religious ceremony that will be held in a few days..."
Before the so-called ceremony of worshiping the General Altar, a smaller-scale, personal sacrificial ceremony must be held for Fei Qian, that is, the sacrificial ceremony for Fei Qian's ancestors. It is a relatively personal matter, but it is also indispensable and quite important.
An important link.
"Really? Zong Li..." Huang Yueying was a little doubtful, and then she hugged Fei Qian's arms tightly, raising her head and staring at Fei Qian's face, "Didn't your husband think about Sister Cai... Do the girls of the Cai family want to stand up?"
Behind me? Hmm?』
"Σ(??д??llll)?!" Fei Qian couldn't answer for a moment, "This..."
