Although Ge Yi and Yun Yi left, the brief words and the part of things that were revealed are like the top of an iceberg. Although it floats on the water and is inconspicuous, there is a huge thing underneath...
Taoism……
Confucianism…
It's like a disconnected thread, with such complex connections among them.
In the later generations of Fei Qian, even before he arrived, he always believed that Confucianism was inherited from Confucius. At the time of Dong Zhongshu, after presenting the theory of "Induction between Heaven and Man" to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he boarded the court...
But now it seems that something is hidden in it.
Fei Qian returned to Pingyang, drove away the maids and guards, and sat alone in the hall, thinking quietly...
In the early Han Dynasty, Liu Bang had no knowledge and skills, so he had no idea how to govern the country. At that time, Zhang Liang learned from Huang Lao and won Liu Bang's trust. It also happened that the whole society needed to heal the trauma caused by the long-term war, so Huang Lao's school "
"Government by inaction" followed suit and created a prosperous era called "Government by Wenjing".
At that time, because the entire court followed Huang Lao's teachings, under the influence of the Tao Te Ching, Taoism, which originated in the Spring and Autumn Period but was attacked by Qin Shihuang, was restored and developed again, and extended to multiple schools, such as the Yang Zhu School
, Guan Yin School, Zhuangzi School, Huang-Lao School, etc. These schools were integrated into a unified name - Taoism.
However, despite the integration of schools, it is precisely because of this that the ideological structure of Taoism has many mottled and complicated characteristics. Therefore, at the beginning, many people felt that Taoism was just a new variant of Zajia.
During the reign of Wenjing, which was the first peak of the development of Taoism, the pinnacle work of Taoist thought appeared - "Huainanzi", and the "Historical Records" written by Sima Qian at that time also had a strong influence of Huang Lao Taoism.
Thoughts of home.
After Taoism climbed to this peak, it began to decline.
In the early Han Dynasty, Taoist thought became the mainstream, which was based on the separation of powers between the emperor, the princes and the military class. However, after Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty put down the "Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms", the power of the princes was greatly weakened, and the military class also became worse with each generation.
The talented and ambitious Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty could not stand the constraints of Huang Lao's "quiet nature", so Dong Zhongshu realized this and put his hands on the Confucian moral principles of respecting the emperor and long li.
Lasted for nearly two thousand years...
Fei subconsciously tapped the table with his fingers. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with it, but why did Ge Yi actually say that "Heaven and One" actually first appeared in the "Taiping Jing"?
Fei had read the "Taiping Jing" at Pang Degong's place when he was in Jingxiang. Because it was written by Huang Lao, and at that time the focus was all on memorizing the "Six Tao", so I only took one volume and skimmed it.
one time……
The specific time when the "Taiping Jing" was written is unknown. The content of the book is "real people" and "celestial masters" asking and answering each other, and then recording it. It was not written by one person in one moment. In terms of form alone, it is the same as "The Analects of Confucius"
, but the earliest "Tiangong Li Bao Yuan Taiping Jing" that appeared in a set was during the period of Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty, which means that the formation period of this Taiping Jing was at least before Emperor Cheng...
Well, Fei Qian has no way of drawing a conclusion on this matter. Perhaps someone as knowledgeable as Cai Yong would be more impressed by these little bits of knowledge.
Let’s change the idea. The troika Dong Zhongshu provided to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty were “Great Unification”, “Induction between Heaven and Man”, and “Depose hundreds of schools of thought and commend the Six Classics”.
I won’t care about who proposed the idea of “celestial induction” first, but this “great unification”...
Fei Qian is quite clear. This statement first appeared in the Spring and Autumn Annals of Gongyang, "Gongyang Zhuan? Yin Gong Yin": "What can be said about Wang Zhengyue? Great unification."
But "Gongyang" is a biography, an annotation of the history book "Spring and Autumn", so the first person to achieve "grand unification" in the political system was Guan Zhong, but Guan Zhong was not a Confucian, but a complete Legalist
figure……
Then "depose hundreds of schools of thought and commend the Six Classics", this...
Mr. Dong's original words were "Promote the Kong family and suppress hundreds of schools of thought", but how could the talented Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty only do half of the things he did?
Cut.
Fei Qian was suddenly startled when he thought of this!
A "Great Unification" was played by the great god Guan Zhong. "Induction between Heaven and Man", well, it is considered an original creation of Mr. Dong, and then added with the "exclusive respect for Confucianism"...
It feels a bit like picking up the bowl to eat, putting the bowl down to curse, and smashing the bowl at the same time...
Fei Qian suddenly remembered that when he was still in Luoyang, it seemed that his senior sister Cai Yan once said something: "In ancient times, there was a literary thief Dong, and today there is a martial thief Dong..."
I didn't quite understand it at the time, and I was a little despised by Senior Sister Cai Yan.
So, is this what Senior Sister Cai Yan meant?
Oh!
This reality completely subverts the three views!
Um……
Something is wrong.
Cai Yan learned from his father Cai Yong, and Cai Yong was undoubtedly a great Confucian scholar, so Cai Yan was naturally a descendant of Confucianism. Why was he so direct in his speech, without any regard for human feelings?
A new question suddenly popped up in Fei Qian's mind. So from this point of view, it seems that Confucianism in the Han Dynasty has not yet been finalized?
In other words, are there still differences?
Suddenly, two words "bang" popped out of Fei Qian's head, and then they collided together in his mind, causing sparks to fly...
One is "ancient" and the other is "present".
Isn’t Confucianism now a dispute between the “Ancient Classics School” and the “Modern Classics School”?
Cai Yong had a brief discussion with Fei Qian before, and the dispute between modern and ancient times began in the Jianping period of Emperor Ai. At that time, Liu Zijun proposed "The Biography of the Zuo Family in the Spring and Autumn Period", "Mao Shi", "Yi Li", "Guwen Shangshu", etc.
Four kinds of ancient scriptures caused the establishment of doctors.
Because to increase the number of Ph.D.s, it was almost equivalent to competing for students from other Ph.D.s. Therefore, all the Ph.D.s at that time expressed their opposition by remaining silent.
As a result, Liu Zijun became angry and wrote an article "A Letter on the Transfer of Dr. Taichang" to criticize the doctors. However, because of this article, the rhetoric was a bit too much, which not only aroused the resentment of the doctors, but also aroused the resentment of some ruling ministers. Out of anger, the great Sikong Shidan at that time said, "Xin changed the old chapter, not to destroy what the late emperor had established," and reprimanded Liu Xin and Liu Zijun...
Thinking of this, Fei Qian frowned. Master Cai Yong taught him "The Biography of the Zuo Family in the Spring and Autumn Period". Was this intentional or unintentional?
If it was intentional, what did Master Cai Yong think at the time?
Cao Pi asked Cao Cao: Dad, can you sing Little Star?
Cao Cao said: The moon and stars are sparse, and the crows and magpies fly south.
…
Cao Rui asked Cao Pi: Dad, can you sing Little Star?
Cao Pi said: The bright moon shines brightly on my bed, and the stars are flowing to the west and the night is still young.
…
Cao Fang asked Cao Rui: Dad, can you sing Little Star?
Cao Rui said: Flying on the steps, how bright is the scenery?

Okay, now we know why there is a gap...

To be a good daddy, start by learning ancient poetry...
