The example cited by Cai Yong is from Zuo Zhuan, and Fei Qian certainly knows it.
Zheng Zichan’s surname is not Zheng, nor is his given name Zichan.
In fact, this person is called Ji Qiao. His surname is Ji, his surname is Gongsun, his given name is Qiao, his courtesy name is Zichan, and his nickname is Chengzi. So if they are combined, the actual full name of this person is: Ji Gongsun, Qiaozi Chanchengzi...
Well, it is more convenient to call him Zheng Zichan.
Zheng Zichan was the famous prime minister of Zheng State. When he passed away after 26 years in power, his family did not even have any savings to pay for his funeral. His son and family had to personally carry soil in a basket to bury his body.
.The news spread to the ears of the people, and many people donated jewelry and jade to help his family with the funeral.
But Zichan's son refused to accept it, and in the end the people had no choice but to throw a large amount of donated jewelry into the river where Zheng Zichan was granted a fiefdom to commemorate this famous prime minister.
Before this famous prime minister died, a passage was recorded in Zuo Zhuan: "...Only a virtuous person can subdue the people with mercy, and the next best thing is fierceness. If a person is fierce, the people will look at it and fear it, so it is rarely seen.
Death is inevitable; water is cowardly, and if people play with it, many will die, so it is difficult to forgive..."
Cai Yong probably meant this when he told Fei Qian about this person.
Fei Qian said: "Master's intention, could it be controlled by fire?"
Cai Yong nodded, then shook his head and said: "If the government is lenient, the people will be slow, and if it is slow, it will be violent; if it is fierce, the people will be crippled, and if it is crippled, it will be lenient. If it is lenient, it will help the fierce, and if it is fierce, it will be lenient."
It is peace."
This is what Confucius later said about Zheng Zichan. To put it simply, it is a sentence, both hands must be grasped and both hands must be strong. Cai Yong is an ancient classics scholar, and Confucianism in the Han Dynasty has not evolved to the perversion of later generations, so for these
People, Cai Yong's meaning is also very straightforward. It is necessary to be strict and to be appropriately lenient. Only in this way can it be possible to do a good job in the political affairs of Bingzhou.
Excessive leniency and kindness can easily lead people to mistake them for weakness, which can lead to exaggeration and exaggeration. Excessive force and severity can easily lead to cruelty, which can lead to strong resistance and chaos in law and order. Therefore, leniency and severity can complement and adjust each other to avoid the negative consequences caused by going to extremes.
The consequences make people convinced to abide by the law. For a place like Bingzhou where Hu and Han people live in a mixed manner, this measure requires a more careful balance.
Fei Qian asked again: "I dare to ask the master, if a child falls to the ground and is born, does not know the words, howls and cries, is it a Hu? A Han?"
Cai Yong moved his eyebrows, and then said: "Could it be that Zi Yuan meant enlightenment?"
Confucians are tireless when it comes to education. Confucius himself is famous for teaching his disciples and sharing knowledge. Later, there were Mencius's theory of good nature, Xunzi's theory of evil nature, and later Dong Zhongshu's theory of neutrality, but no matter
What kind of system emphasizes the need for "King's Religion"...
Don't talk about the far ones, just talk about the near ones.
Liu Yu, Liu Bo'an, Youzhou Mu. When Liu Yu first served as the governor of Youzhou in Youzhou, he had high prestige among foreign tribes such as Xianbei, Wuhuan, Fuyu, Haoqi and so on. As a result, the imperial court was worried that Liu Yuwei would not be replaced, so he withdrew.
Liu Yu, and later Wu Heng rebelled, and Liu Yu had to be sent again to quell the rebellion.
The reason why Liu Yu has such a high prestige is related to the gentle education policy he has been implementing in Youzhou, but such gentle education can only last for one generation...
Historically, after the death of Liu Yu, the Wuheng people have been avenging Liu Yu. First they fought against Gongsun Zan, and then they joined forces with Yuan Shao and killed Gongsun Zan together.
Of course, it is also related to Gongsun Zan's strategy of "anyone who refuses to surrender will die"...
Later, the Wuheng people gradually forgot that there had been such a kind and friendly Han, and they turned into a gang of robbers. In the end, they were caught by Cao Cao and beaten severely. Finally, they became honest and fled far away to Liaodong and North Korea.
The peninsula is gone.
So gentle education is not feasible.
Fei Qian didn't want to do any enlightenment, Huairou, in his concept, in fact, the education model implemented in China by an island country in later generations is very suitable for transplantation and use...
That set of models has been proven by history. Until later generations when Fei Qian traveled through time, there were still many Wanwan people who called themselves self-operators.
Cut off the roots of its matrilineal culture and use force as a guarantee to let Han culture start from the simplest recognition of characters and cultivate a sense of ritual that is in line with Han culture. Within strict ritual norms, various interests will be used as follow-up thrust until it allows Han culture to
These Hu people identify with Han culture from the bottom of their hearts.
This was actually a model adopted by the Tang Dynasty later, otherwise the territory of the Tang Dynasty would not have expanded unprecedentedly. An Lushan and others were the assimilated Hu people, but it was only after the Tang Dynasty itself failed that they were named by others.
Got some thoughts...
Fei Qian explained the plan and strategy of cultural invasion that he planned to implement in Bingzhou, then he bowed to the ground and said: "Master wants to practice loyalty and righteousness, and students cannot stop him. However, the policy of enlightenment is related to the frontiers of the Han Dynasty.
Safety is a matter of time and effort. Although the student has the intention, he is unable to catch up, so he is willing to make an appointment with the master..."
Cai Yong weighed it again and again, and was very excited about the brand-new education model that Fei Qian just mentioned. If it can really be like what Fei Qian said, then it may only take two or three generations, or maybe even a shorter time.
There will be many people who are influenced by Han culture and care about the Han Dynasty from the original Hu people. This is no less than a matter of far-reaching significance for the tranquility of the Han Dynasty's frontiers.
What's more, if this model can be implemented smoothly in Bingzhou, then the Qianghu in Xiliang, Wuheng in Liaodong, Xianbei in northern Hebei, Baipu Sanmiao and Baiyue in the south can also refer to it.
Implement?
The significance of this to the Han Dynasty and to Cai Yong, who devoted himself to the study of literature, was no less than the second Xiping Stone Classic...
Cai Yong pondered for a long time and finally said: "What do you want to arrange with Ziyuan?"
The fact that Cai Yong can say this sentence shows that Cai Yong is actually moved.
Indeed, for Cai Yong, being a high-ranking official with high salary is not very attractive. Even when facing death, he does not think it is a very scary thing. The only thing he finds more difficult is his daughter Cai Yong.
Yan's arrangement, as for his own life, is not very important.
For Cai Yong, one very important thing in his life was the inheritance of culture. Therefore, in history, when he was imprisoned by Wang Yun, he still said that he could accept any punishment, including castration, as long as he could continue
Just write a history book...
This is also the fundamental reason why Cai Yong readily agreed to Fei Qian's move of his book collection.
Because Cai Yong believed that this was his responsibility.
Fei lurked and bowed: "If the student is established in Bingzhou, please ask the master to come and help, and teach the best!"
This is the best of both worlds... Cai Yong escorted Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty to Chang'an, fulfilling the righteousness of the emperor and his ministers, and then went to Bingzhou to complete the ideal of educating all people and spreading culture... He would neither feel aggrieved nor feel that he was wrong about any of them.
There are some shortcomings... Ami Tofu, the author has turned several hairs white because of thinking about this... The key point is why the damn hair is all white together, or right in front of the forehead... it's a cross in a circle...
