There is such a saying that Fei Qian often heard in later generations.
"When an avalanche occurs, no snowflake is innocent."
It sounds reasonable and is often used in various aspects, but in fact this sentence is a bowl of poisonous chicken soup.
The literal meaning of this sentence is: a catastrophic avalanche is caused by all the snowflakes, so every snowflake is inseparable and is responsible for the result.
But in fact, most people who say this sentence don't know what the original text is, or even what deviations occurred in the translation process of this sentence, and this kind of deviation is called adulteration.
"smuggled goods".
Some people say that this sentence was said by Voltaire, but it is not true.
The original author of this sentence is the Polish poet Stanislaw.
The literal meaning of the original text is, "When there is an avalanche, there is not a single snowflake, so I feel that I am responsible."
I don’t know if you can feel the difference between the two sentences. The former sentence is a moral judgment from above, while the latter sentence is a narration of events.
Snowflake, do you really have to take responsibility for the avalanche?
And still "no one is innocent"?!
Snowflakes fall randomly, and they cannot control their own destiny. Some snowflakes fall on the fields, nourishing the fields, and turn into rivers. Some snowflakes fall on the hillsides, accumulating thicker and eventually causing avalanches.
, swallowed everything.
And then say that all snowflakes must bear the responsibility for the avalanche?
Those behind the scenes who designate snowflakes to fall on a certain article area intentionally or unintentionally, those media guides who use snowflakes to gain attention and traffic, those who fan the flames to push the first snowball down from the top of the mountain or fire the first shot.
Those who spread rumors, these guys spread their hands after the avalanche, just like other "snowflakes", indicating that "in an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent?"
In fact, the implication is that the "snowflakes" really want to get to the root of the problem?
Know that "no snowflake is innocent"!
Look at your own sin!
Just like some religions, they say that people are born with original sin, karma, etc. It almost means the same thing. Since everyone is guilty, it also means that everyone is innocent, or guilty when there is a need to be guilty, and not guilty.
when there is no guilt.
In this way, the thinking about the source, the incident, and the avalanche can be extinguished, leaving only a high-level accusation, with at most a vague sigh, and then the responsibilities are evenly divided, no more, no less.
Spread it on every "snowflake", pat your butt, and go looking for the next avalanche feast.
It's like after some major events, someone always comes out to take the blame, either as a temporary worker or as a minion, and then stops tracing and thinking about the source.
Therefore, it is indeed good to use the sentence "No snowflake is innocent in an avalanche" as a wake-up call for oneself and as one's own moral self-discipline. However, if it is just to attract attention or shirk responsibility, keep this sentence on your lips.
On the other side, there are snowflakes who accuse this or that every day...
That would be meaningless.
It's like the present moment.
Pei Yuan's incident can be regarded as a moderate "avalanche" incident.
If we follow what Wei Duan means, "Snowflake" doesn't have much ability. This avalanche incident happened by chance, and it didn't cause much damage. It's generally negligible. Let's just drink and dance, and we'll be done with it together.
, and for Sima Yi, he emphasized that "no snowflake is innocent", indicating that a strict investigation is needed, and it is best to weigh all the "snowflakes"!
Regardless of the reasons behind Wei Duan and Sima Yi's suggestions, this is generally the superficial understanding.
Being driven by interests will obviously point to interests, but being driven by morality does not mean that it will point to morality.
In the current political structure and social system, it is destined and must be a two-pronged approach.
Moral standards are not what Wei Duan and Sima Yi have to worry about, nor can they be established by these two people. Fei Qian summoned the two people here because he actually wanted them to find "Pei Yuan" based on the incident.
"Avalanche" channel, or find a way to deal with avalanche events.
But Fei Qian now discovered that these two people seemed to be somewhat different from what he thought.
Fei Qian glanced at Wei Duan, turned to look at Sima Yi, and said, "The Master said, "There are different ways, and we don't want to work together." Everyone follows their own aspirations. Therefore, "Wealth and honor can be sought, even if you hold a whip.
Scholars, I will do the same. If you can't ask for it, do what I like." "When the years are cold, you will know that the pines and cypresses will wither." The world is turbid, and the pure people will see it. How can it be as important as that, or as light as this?
』
"I wonder what Zhongda thinks of what Tai Shigong said?"
Sima Yi took a slight breath, and then said with a normal expression, "What my lord said is true. Only when the years are cold will you know that the pines and cypresses will wither, and only when you are in trouble will you know the kindness of people's hearts."
After Fei Qian pointed out Sima Yi's question first, he continued slowly: "When people live in the world, they should follow the way of heaven and earth. The way of heaven has not been stated, but all things can live, why? It can be said that the officials of the four seasons
, supported by the five elements, if you go with them, you will live, if you go against them, you will perish."
"The Great Han Dynasty established three ministers and nine ministers, local counties and counties, local village elders, and large and small officials, all in order to ensure the smooth life of all people. This is the "way of heaven" for officials and assistants."
"What should we do with the officials? Maybe the people are not at peace, so how can we take care of them? Or the barbarians are not attached, so how can we defeat them? Or the war has not stopped, so how can we eliminate them? Or the fields are too many and barren, how can we clear them up? Or there are wise men in the field, what can we do?
If they advance or establish a dynasty with sycophants, how can they be denounced..."
"If there is disharmony among the six qi, and disasters are coming, you should think about how to avoid them, and how to deal with them. If there are five punishments that are not dealt with, and deception occurs every day, you should think about how to repair them and how to deal with them. I am worried about the worries of the head of Guizhou and the suffering of the people.
The reason for suffering is to take the celery from the countryside and offer it in front of the steps of the court hall. If this is the case, it will be a salary of thousands of stones and a salary of ten thousand yuan, which is also appropriate."
What Fei Qian said was of course extremely correct. Even if anyone came here, they would not be able to fault him. Wei Duan and Sima Yi who were present naturally nodded one after another, indicating that what the lord said was inspiring and golden.
So much...
Fei Qian did not continue, but continued: "However, there are also officials and assistants who hold important positions. Some have unresolved personal vendettas and want to expel them. Or old favors have not been repaid and they want to honor them. Or their children have treasures and silks. Why do they get them? Or
How can you take chariots, horses, and utensils for fun? How can you seize them if a traitor takes advantage of them? How can you depose an upright man if he resists..."
"If there are three times when a disaster is reported and the country is worried, then craft clever words to shirk it. The officials will play tricks and the people's resentment is overwhelming. Then use flattery to deceive them. The heart is about money, and you want power and harm.
The people under your jurisdiction are in vain for the kindness of the court. If you do this, you will be in the last position and do false things, which cannot be tolerated."
"You must know that the fate of a country, the fate of a county, and the lives of a county all hang in the hands of officials. How can we be careless?"
The following words are naturally wrong.
Wei Duan and Sima Yi also nodded, expressing their lord's wisdom.
In fact, Fei Qian has been catching up on the matter of officials very early on. However, this matter is just like the situation in later generations. It is not a separate law or a period of arrest, which will lead to long-term peace and stability and no future troubles.
Rather, it requires constant regulation, constant updating, and constant keeping up with the development of new situations.
Just like Fei Qian first implemented the "Corruption Law" in Guanzhong Sanfu, it only focused on corruption. There were three corruption projects with relatively heavy punishments, but it did not stop the desire of these officials to succeed one after another.
Later, Feiqian added an item of malfeasance on the basis of the "Law of Corruption", refined the specific items, covered as many aspects as possible, and combined them to form the current "Law of Corruption"
…
But it is obvious that the "Law of Corruption" cannot keep up with the new changes.
In the "Law of Corruption and Malfeasance", corruption refers to embezzlement of public funds, and malfeasance refers to dereliction of official duties. But like Pei Yuan, if we say he embezzled public funds, he does not count because he only received a lot of private money.
He has no qualifications to embezzle public funds in the Senate, nor does he have much money to embezzle. If you say he is derelict in his duties, he is not considered one, because he is just bragging and others think he can do it. In the end, he received a lot of money and failed.
manage……
Therefore, there is no suitable charge for using the "Law of Corruption and Malfeasance" on Pei Yuan.
Different eras have different situations. Of course, in later generations, this kind of behavior is a major economic fraud, but the problem is that in the Han Dynasty, there was no such crime...
It can even be said that this type of fraud is not a serious crime in the current understanding of the Han Dynasty, and it may not even be considered a crime. The intrigues in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period can even be regarded as classics by the children of the gentry.
For example, returning the jade to Zhao intact.
If someone has been defrauded, there is no point in looking for squandering in the current situation. No one will fight for the injustice and recover the losses, because this means that the person who was defrauded is mentally retarded, incompetent and short-sighted. So if Fei Qian said that he would help these deceived people,
Pei Yuan deceived the nobles to recover the defrauded money, and then accused Pei Yuan of his character, which is simply not true!
In the current social perception of the Han Dynasty, although Pei Yuan's actions were morally wrong, they were not considered a big deal. They would even become Pei Yuan's meritorious deeds and be praised by the Shandong nobles!
Right, how stupid are the gentry sons of Sanfu in Guanzhong, who and so and so, how and how they were easily deceived, and carried them to the bed and performed seventeen or eighteen postures. When they talk about it, they must be filled with laughter and applause. It’s like
In later generations, a lot of "Friends from Fanbang" posted on a certain website and it was like hundreds of people killed thousands of people. From the perspective of Fanbang, they were heroes! I don't know how many people would leave comments under their posts asking for help from brothers.
Therefore, Fei Qian could neither say that he agreed with Wei Duan's way of turning big things into trivial matters, nor could he adopt Sima Yi's model of making a fuss out of molehills and stirring up trouble. Instead, he took this opportunity to put forward a new standard and a new question...
What is Li Zuo?
What about Li Zuo?
Just like the sentence at the beginning, is it more interesting to blame all the snowflakes from above, or is it more meaningful to stand among the snowflakes and consider why such a problem occurs?
"Since both of you agree with this theory..." Fei Qian smiled, "Wei Yuanzheng is responsible for drafting the laws and regulations related to the evaluation of officials and assistants, and Sima Qing is responsible for verifying those who have served in recent years and resigned without reason. Is this against the rules?"
An act of responsibility... take this opportunity to correct the conduct of officials..."
Fei Qian simply took a different approach and started from the responsibilities of being an official. He did not say whether Pei Yuan was a fraud or not, nor did he say what his personal moral character was. He just said that when you become an official, you should behave like an official, and that's how he should be.
What shouldn't be the case, and then let Wei Duan designate legal orders based on the approved conclusion, and then let Sima Yi track down these officials, including Pei Yuan, who have resigned or fled recently. Such a move is undoubtedly a higher priority.
A fixed point in the dimension struck...
……(o′?□?`o)……
When Fei Qian was looking for Wei Duan and Sima Yi to inquire about relevant matters, Zhao Yun, who was far away in the desert, also encountered some new situations.
The red cloth is not enough.
Red and black are the basic colors of the big man.
It's the base color, not the underwear...
As for yellow or other colors, at least at this stage, they cannot represent a big man.
During the Qin and Han Dynasties, due to the development of productivity, the dyeing and weaving technology developed by leaps and bounds. The advancement of dyeing and weaving technology was the basis for improving the quality of clothing. People in the Han Dynasty became increasingly particular about clothing, and their clothes became more and more gorgeous. There were even multiple colors.
The dyeing and weaving process.
It's just that the military doesn't pay so much attention to it. Even if there are some flaws in the color, it won't hinder normal use. The main reason is that there is not much dye left.
Of course, the dyes currently used by Han Dynasty are all natural dyes, that is, mineral or plant dyes.
Cyan is mainly dyed with indigo extracted from indigo. Planting indigo in fields and even wasteland has become a very important economic crop for Han farmers. There are also some plantings in the three auxiliary areas of Guanzhong.
But for the whole Han Dynasty, the place with the most cultivated bluegrass should be Cao Cao's hometown, Chenliu.
Yellow is mainly dyed with gardenia. The yellow dyed with gardenia has a slight reddish glow, which is a high-grade dye. Of course, some ordinary yellows are also available. In the "Han Guan Yi", it is recorded that "Exi comes out of the dyeing garden,
"Dyeing Royal Clothes", E means "Yazi", which means that the yellow dyeing cloth used for the royal family at that time was dyed with gardenia.
White is generally not dyed specially. If it is, it is dyed with minerals, but this is very complicated, so generally in Dahan, you only need to use bleaching and boiling. For example, to bleach linen, use plant ash and lime to boil.
If you don't succeed once, you will succeed twice...
Black mainly comes from many sources of dyes, such as oak, acorn, gallnut, persimmon leaves, holly leaves, chestnut shells, lotus seed shells, sage leaves, tallow leaves, etc., which can all be used as black dyes, although
Some are not the pure black of later generations, but they can basically meet the needs.
The trouble, or the lack of raw materials, is red...
What?
Blood?
If blood doesn't work, if you think blood can dye cloth, just try it yourself and dye it.
The color red in the Han Dynasty was also a kind of grass called madder.
Because Zhao Yun still has a long way to go before being transferred to Zhongxin in Yinshan, and there is usually a shortage of fabrics of any color in it. It is impossible to report to him and send a batch of black ones, and then report again next time and send a batch of yellow ones...
The most convenient method is naturally to directly send a batch of undyed raw cloth, and then Zhao Yun can dye it himself according to his own needs at Changshan Camp.
As for why there is a shortage of red cloth now, it is because Zhao Yun, Zhang He and others accidentally expanded too fast.
Just like when a dog takes over the territory...
Well, tigers have taken over the territory...
Well, that’s what it means anyway.
Occupying a territory does not mean that you can pull everything on the territory into your arms and carry it away. Of course, I have never seen a tiger take away all the trees and rocks on the mountain.
But at least you have to declare your sovereignty.
Every tribe must have three to five Han flags. The Han flag has a red background with black edges, so if you are not careful, the red cloth will not be enough.
Another more troublesome thing is population.
The population of the Hu people.
There are also livestock.
The reason why Zhao Yun, Zhang He and others were so successful was because these barbarians suffered serious disasters. In the face of the disaster, these barbarians had only two options left, one was to rob, and the other was to wait for death.
I won't mention it until death, but as for robbery, in the desert now, there is no property that can be defeated, and there is no property. You can't defeat it.
Then Zhao Yun gave the third way...
Most of these barbarians live in the north of the desert. It can even be said that if it were not for this white disaster and black disaster, Zhao Yun would not have seen these barbarians at all.
Hu people and Han people all have the same two eyes and one mouth, and they all need to eat. When there is some disturbance in the grassland and desert, the cattle and sheep are exposed. The natural shortcomings of the nomadic people are fully exposed in the face of the disasters in the grassland and desert.
Being able to solve the problems in the desert through food and drink is a great achievement, but on the other hand, if you feed tigers to cause trouble, or feed white-eyed wolves, then it becomes the biggest crime.
It's like the front and back of a horse coin.
This piece of Qiusi Qian was rolling in Xinpi's hand.
These barbarians who came from the desert of northern Xinjiang are different from the Xianbei and Huns. Some of them wear felt hats all the time, while others are cold to death without wearing hats, letting their thick, dark hair grow
drift……
Don’t think that this kind of life on the prairie is beautiful and unrestrained. In fact, when you get closer, you can smell the smell of yak and sheep emanating from these guys’ hair, the sound of their leather robes, and the skin of their bodies.
The smell, and seeing the lice and fleas crawling in and out of the hair and fur robes of these guys...
Just like many people in cities in later generations envied rural life, but if they really wanted to go to the countryside, it would be Ye Gong Haolong.
Most of these barbarians have black eyes and black hair, but there are also some people with high noses and different-colored pupils. These people with colored eyes stand far away, with humble and wretched expressions.
Language is a big problem, but fortunately these guys can understand each other, so Xinpi directed a few people and asked them to elect their own representatives and conduct discussions.
noon.
The sun shone down, shining on the shining hussar coins in Xinpi's hands, and also on these guys. It seemed that they were a little hot from the sun. These guys wearing sheepskin battle clothes took off half of their battle clothes.
Then the smell of cattle and sheep in the venue became stronger and stronger.
In the middle of these barbarians is the leader they recommended. An old man with some white hair, a middle-aged man with a yak bone necklace hanging around his neck, and a blind man.
The disheveled man with the left eye.
In the battle, surrender or death. Among these people who came into contact with Zhao Yun and Zhang He, many chose to surrender, but surrender did not mean that they did not have to eat and drink, and some of them heard the news and came over to contact them on their own initiative.
Killing cannot solve the problem, it can only solve the person who caused the problem, and the problem is still there.
It's like the Xiongnu occupied the entire desert, but it has only been so long that no one remembers what happened to the Xiongnu. Then came Xianbei, and then Xianbei Tanshihuai died, and it was also a piece of scattered sand.
Therefore, if you want to really solve the problems in the desert, you cannot just rely on killing people. Just like firing a temporary worker cannot completely solve the problem, it only treats the symptoms but not the root cause.
"Ding!"
Xinpi bounced the Qiusi Qian in his hand high.
The Qiusi coins flipped in the air, reflecting the sunlight, shining with a dazzling brilliance, attracting everyone's attention, and then fell down, falling back into Xinpi's hands.
"This..." Xinpi pushed the Hussar coin forward a little, exposing it to everyone's eyes, "This is the greatest preferential treatment I will give you on behalf of General Hussar..."
