It has to be said that Confucianism really spares no effort to maintain the concept of "ritual".
As early as the time of Confucius, there was a mixture of love and hate for the Zhou rites at that time. Confucius and his elders could not eat for three days because of the collapse of the Zhou rites...
Of course, Confucius started eating on the fourth day.
"Rites" need to be based on food and clothing...
Etiquette governs the king and his ministers, etiquette is the moral code, and etiquette is the default rule. But if you don’t even have enough food to eat, and you can’t even wear clothes, who will care about who is the king and who is the minister?
The Yang family and the Yuan family are both four generations and three nobles, but the problem is that the Yuan family has begun to break away from the so-called rules and embarked on a new journey. Will the Yang family still continue to unswervingly follow the original "rituals"?
How about going on?
Fei Qian looked at Xun Chen who was in the queue. In a sense, Xun Chen was also a destroyer of "rituals", because normally, since Xun Chen was chosen by the family to make sacrifices,
, he should not serve as an official again.
However, having said that, if Xun Chen comes here, can he completely get rid of the influence of the Xun family's "rituals"?
Fei Qian thought about it and was still not sure.
Yang Biao's sudden appearance also sounded a wake-up call to Fei Qian himself.
If the Fei family comes, what should I do?
Fei Qian raised his eyes and saw that the sky was blue, the fields were empty, and the mountains and waters were green. It was a beautiful scenery. However, Fei Qian knew that in fact, there were still many invisible rules and regulations between the sky and the earth, covering this world.
world.
Sometimes I think I have walked out, but in fact it seems that there are still several ropes on my body, like the strings of a kite.
But after all, it's much better than struggling in the mud, isn't it?
From a historical point of view, Yang Biao is undoubtedly a smart man, so Fei Qian basically determined that Yang Biao would not do some stupid things, such as rashly carrying out assassinations, or starting to show off before determining the overall situation.
etc.
The Yuan family is now like a liger, showing its claws and roaring, occupying the mountain as the king, and gathering beasts in the forest, but the Yang family is still like a tame snake, curled up, and only showing off when necessary
Deadly fangs.
Fei Qian felt that he still had to follow the "etiquette".
As the saying goes, if you challenge the rules when you are unable to create them, you are either out of your mind or you have no brains?
Okay, that’s pretty much what it means.
The law of Han Dynasty is the law of human relations.
Relatives protecting each other is not guilty, and it can even be extended to friends. In the Han Dynasty, the word "killing relatives for justice" would be poked in the spine for a lifetime. That's why Xu Shu was able to escape from the pursuit of officials, and Dian Wei was able to kill people in the bustling city and still act arrogantly.
of leaving...
This is even more obvious when it comes to the nobles. Even if Yang Biao is an imperial prisoner, as long as he still carries the status of a nobleman, no one will arrest him even if he travels all over the world.
Fei Qian suddenly understood that although Emperor Han Heng and Emperor Han Ling might have some troubles, they were not necessarily just idiots. Judging from the current situation, there might not have been any during the Xiqiang Rebellion or the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
Better candidates to pacify, think of Liu Biaodan riding into Jingxiang, Liu Yu twice conquering Liaodong, and the ambitious Liu Yan. In addition to these capable clan members, Yang has disciples and former officials all over the world.
, if the Yuan Er family were released to lead the army, it would probably be terrible...
Therefore, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty had to use people like Zhang Wen, Lu Zhi, and Huangfu Song who were not from the most prosperous families to lead the army.
"So I am the second Gongsun Zan..." Fei Qian muttered silently in his heart, "Or... the second Han Fu..."
***************
"Mr. Yang..." Huangfu Song stood next to Yang Biao and whispered, "...in the past, the champions did not adhere to ancient methods, but mostly used fruit generals, and the soldiers who were sent down were those who were talented. Today, I have never thought that Fei Zhonglang did the same...
…”
As Huangfu Song, he was able to survive the revenge of Zhong Changshi and avoid Dong Zhuo's purge in the court of the Han Dynasty. For these political matters, his level was naturally much higher than that of Lu Zhi and Zhu Shan.
…
Is it a good thing to regain Yinshan? Of course it is a good thing, but what happens after it is recovered?
Do you need people to govern?
So who is going?
Above the court is also a battlefield.
Starting from Liu Xiu, the Kanto gentry had been controlling the affairs of the Han Dynasty. Except for the Guandong gentry, all the gentry groups in the region either surrendered or were suppressed. This was true for the Kansai gentry, and the same was true for the Bingzhou gentry.
Therefore, if a large number of troops, population and various materials are accumulated in the land of Sanfu and Bingzhou border, it will undoubtedly increase the strength of others. How can such a thing be liked by the Kanto nobles?
Therefore, although Fei Qian regained Yinshan, not everyone, including Yang Biao and others, and even an old political cunning figure like Huangfu Song, were optimistic about it.
The Champion Hou Yunyun mentioned by Huangfu Song is not actually saying that Fei Qian has the potential of a Champion Hou, or that he will get a high position like a Champion Hou. He is just making it clear to Yang Biao that there are many Qiang people in Fei Qian's army.
Waiting for Hu Qi with the Xiongnu, this behavior is the same as what the champion Hou did...
Of course Yang Biao understood what Huangfu Song meant, nodded, and then pointedly said: "Although the people of Maowan are good at fighting, they are also greedy and cannot be trusted."
At that time, under the champion marquis, there were actually five marquises, Yiguanhou, Huiquhou, Congpihou, Zhuanghou, and Zhonglihou, all of whom were Huns. They also accounted for most of the people who were ennobled among the champion marquis' subordinates.
And these princes gradually declined after the death of the champion prince, and did not leave much mark.
This reason is naturally related to the fact that although these Huns were granted lordships for their military merits, they were still incompatible with the intellectuals of the Han Dynasty. But the most important thing is that these Huns were not organized.
In the Han Dynasty, system was the most important.
Wei Qing and Huo Qubing were very famous when they were alive, but they didn't even dare to take care of their guests. This in itself explains some problems.
Comparing this with Tian Fu Dou Ying during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the struggle between these two foreign relatives and dignitaries, as well as the mutual constraints and struggles between the various forces attached to them, including the intertwined conflicts between them and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and the queen mothers of the two dynasties.
The power is restricted by family ties, and the intrigues and plots are against each other. Compared with Yu Weiqing and Huo Qubing, there is simply a world of difference.
Having soldiers is not the key, because you must have power.
Being powerful is still not the most important thing. There must be a system to form a community of interests.
At this point, in the eyes of Yang Biao and others, Fei Qian's so-called small group is still extremely weak...
"It's a pity that the champion died so young..." Yang Biao said with a faint sigh, "...the tomb is like the Qilian Mountains, which is how it should be... Now that Fei Zhonglang has returned to the Yinshan Mountain, I will be happy to have someone after him..."
Huangfusong quickly raised his eyes and glanced at Yang Biao, then nodded slightly silently...
