He said that the security of food, clothing, warmth and shelter is human nature and a basic need for a person. Before a gentleman is a gentleman, he is a human being. Being able to achieve it without excessive pursuit is a state and a moral character. But moral character is the most important thing.
It advertises and misleads the people, thinking that the pursuit of basic needs must be linked to moral character, but this is wrong. Whether you are a gentleman or an ordinary person, it is legitimate and reasonable to ask for enough food and a safe place to live.
Excessive, inappropriate thoughts.
Then he said, how did people come step by step? In ancient times, people lived in caves and wore animal skins. People could not feed themselves and their clothes could not cover their bodies. If you seek it with the virtue of a gentleman, where did it come from now?
What about the Tang Dynasty? Where did the silk and cotton cloth, rice and cotton, vegetables and fruits, and the tens of millions of mansions come from?
The driving force for people's progress is to pursue better food and safer housing. On the basis of having enough food and safe housing, of course, one can also pursue better food and more comfortable housing.
The imperial court is busy all day long. What is it busy with? First, to make the world safe; second, to make the world feel at ease; and third, to make the world progress.
How can we consider progress? Eating more and living more comfortably is a kind of progress.
He said that if you don't seek to be satisfied with food, it's because you don't really feel hungry. If you don't seek comfort in life, it's because you don't understand what it means to have no roof over your head.
In the final analysis, this is meant for wealthy people who can still study and study, not for those at the bottom who are in poverty and about to starve to death.
Therefore, he said at the end of the article: What Confucius, a non-cultivator, lacked was a sense of common people. Fan Lubing put down the article and did not move it for a long time. His Majesty's life was not satisfactory in his childhood, and later he mostly gave priority to farming.
, therefore, the eldest prince is probably most influenced by His Majesty’s personal farming. In the eldest prince’s view, farming is the origin of everything. If a scholar does not understand farming and the pain of farming, he is not a capable scholar.
.Similarly, the eldest prince also believes that an emperor who cannot understand the suffering of farmers is not an emperor who understands the suffering of the people.
He pulled out this article and put it aside before reading further.
The next article is written by the second prince Ansheng. This highness is less than ten years old. He said that Confucianism cultivates the heart, and the heart depends on the body. Only when you can understand what you need is in line with human nature. Compared with Confucius' words,
He believed that Mozi's saying, "You must always be full when you eat, then seek beauty; you must always be warm, then seek beauty; you must always be safe, then seek happiness" is more reasonable.
The Third Prince Taisheng's argument is this: He believes that Confucius's request is false, and such a gentleman can hardly be a true gentleman. He even admires Guan Zhong's saying that "the etiquette is known through practical experience in the warehouse". He believes that if people's needs are
If everything is satisfied, then he is a gentleman everywhere. In other words, he thinks this is a retreat!
Fan Lubing suddenly had a toothache. It happened very quickly, and a big bump appeared on his left cheek.
Looking further down, it was written by the former grandson Li Chongzhao. After reading this article, he had a thought: This is right! This is a standard Confucian article. The interpretation is very good, and he understands the virtues of a gentleman.
Very thorough.
It can be seen that His Highness has been enlightened in the palace early and received a good education. His mother comes from a wealthy family and has given her children enough education. The children have also learned well, and their words about benevolent gentlemen are very insightful. How can I say it?
This is an excellent article.
If he were still the grandson, if the master only taught this one, really, if the grandson could learn like this, the masters would die in peace.
But not now! Putting so many of them together, especially compared with the deviant ones, this article is too flat! It lacks my own opinions. Then this is the biggest inappropriateness.
This time the homework was not handed out in a hurry. Instead, it was taken out and showed to several prime ministers.
So let me ask you: Who said it doesn’t make sense?
At this time, Di Renjie suddenly realized that the most important thing about inheritance is continuity. Any national policy that cannot be continued is actually a failed national policy. Only those who can understand His Majesty's concept and implement it well can
It is more beneficial to the world.
But besides his own son, who can continue it well?
So here comes the question, is it more important for one family to lead the world? Or for the world to lead the world?
No rush! No rush! No rush. Your Highnesses are still young. Let’s wait and see in a few years. We’ll see what happens in a few years.
In the past few years, we have been busy adjusting the division of provinces, busy demarcating boundaries, busy re-counting the population, busy measuring land, and busy appointing officials.
The reform of the military system was completed in the middle. How to deploy troops in each dangerous and dangerous place must be calculated and arranged, so it will naturally be changed accordingly.
So, it was really like overthrowing the existing ones in the Tang Dynasty and building them up again, just like stacking building blocks. This building must be done according to one's own will and must be mixed with one's own things. For example, the Xuezheng Yamen should be called "Schoolboys" as much as possible.
Master 300 common words and be able to calculate basic addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Boys and girls are treated equally. If you learn well, you can pass the exam. Those who pass the exam will be allocated wasteland and their families can help with farming. There is no restriction on men and women. Women
The land should be given to the husband's family first, and when he gets married in the future, he can adjust the land through the Yamen, and try to adjust the land to the location of the husband's family as much as possible, and buy and sell it freely.
There were also dozens of female officials in the court, headed by Taiping and Shangguan Wan'er, followed by the grown-up Li Shou, Princess Kangnan, and even Li Xian's two daughters. They were not surrounding the palace.
Turn, they are in charge of many civil affairs.
Li Shou was in charge of Sibin Temple, mainly in charge of the affairs of his country. When he arrived at the Yamen that day, he was informed that Princess Taiping was here.
Li Shou was stunned for a moment, "Who is coming?"
Princess Taiping.
Li Shou frowned at first, then hurriedly greeted her, "My sister-in-law is here... I just met her yesterday, and here she is again today. You are more verbose than my mother-in-law. Are you going to give me something delicious?"
Taiping tapped his niece's nose and said, "I have something good for you somewhere. I just happened to be passing by to see you."
"Didn't you enter the palace today? The Emperor's appetite has been a bit bad these past two days." Li Shou said and invited the person inside, "Sit down!" After that, he poured the tea himself. Taiping grabbed the person and said, "
Stop being busy! I heard from your mother that you are not happy with several marriage proposals. You are an eighteen-year-old girl, how long do you want to postpone it? I even told your mother with a smile, if you really can’t find the right one.
, Forget it, I will allocate my elder brother to you..."
Li Shou rolled his eyes inwardly. His sister-in-law had been anxious in the past two years. Her family was not qualified to think about that position, so he turned his attention to his sisters and thought about getting married to the Xue family. Wouldn't this become a string?
Already?
Ha! What good things are you thinking of?
Mr. Xue family, that’s a scammer! Besides, that kid doesn’t have such crooked thoughts! He is taken care of by the British father-in-law every day, and he can’t even get out of the carpentry workshop.
Besides, I don’t have that idea either! Isn’t it beautiful when I, Aye, wander around day after day? Or do I think His Majesty’s days when he goes to bed at midnight and wakes up at five are too beautiful, and I want to try it too?
"Sister-in-law, let me tell you the truth, I don't want to get married. I want to find someone who is handsome, smart, and will support me. If I am willing, I will take him into my house. I will also be happy to have two children with him.
Children...there can only be two children, no matter male or female, I won't have any more, it will delay my errand too much."
Taiping answered immediately, "That's why I said it was wrong for Your Majesty to release so many women from home to do errands! What is most important in a country? Population! If there is no population, how can there be a prosperous age? Nowadays, the population has increased
Quite a few, but if all the women go out to do errands, they are like you and are afraid of delaying their errands and not having children... I dare to ask, what will happen after the Tang Dynasty? "
"Then you can't talk to me about this! Now that the world has caught up with me, I just want to live my life according to my own wishes. I won't go to your house. You can be an aunt. If you are a mother-in-law, I'm afraid you will eat it.
Me!" After saying that, she laughed, hugged her sister-in-law's shoulders and shook her, "Sister-in-law, please don't be angry, I'm joking with you."
Damn girl, who is making fun of you?
Taiping stood up and left, but Li Shou smiled from behind, "Sister-in-law, please slow down, wait for me, I'll see you off!" He said goodbye, but his feet didn't move at all.
As soon as the person left, Li Shou chuckled and looked at who was the fool?!
She raised her hand and grabbed the folding book on the table, took off her riding crop, stood up and left, "Enter the palace."
In the palace, Lin Yutong is being blocked by Kang Nan in the imperial study. Kang Nan supervises the Tai Hospital, which has medical offices in various places. It is a very large organization with vertical downward management. She is stuck here for a moment, only
I want to ask for one thing: "I want to go down and have a look."
Your mother-in-law doesn’t agree.
"I am your subject first."
No! You are my niece first.
Kangnan came over and folded his arms and hummed. Then Li Shou came and said, "Auntie, I've been a little active lately."
Lin Yutong waved her over, "Want you to go to her house to be her daughter-in-law again?"
Kang Nan snorted coldly, "I'll ask the Taiyuan Hospital to make an announcement later. Only those who are five generations apart can get married. I wonder how my sister-in-law will get married?"
My aunts and uncles have quite a temper!
Joking aside, after sending these two children away, Lin Yutong felt that he should still ask about this matter.
As a result, Fourth Master shook his head: "No need!"
No need?
Fourth Master nodded, "It's time to learn to let go! If you don't fight out of it, you won't be able to hold your position."
Lin Yutong pondered for a moment, then asked Liu De: "Where is the eldest prince?"
"At the polo ground." Liu De whispered, "Prince Chang'en and his people are also at the polo ground."
Prince Chang'en is talking about Li Chongzhao.
Lin Yutong pulled the fourth master, "Let's go! Go watch the children play polo."
Strolling through the Luoyang Palace, climbing up the stairs step by step, and standing on the viewing pavilion.
Zesheng, Ansheng, and Taisheng, together with Li Chengqi, Li Yixun, and Li Qiu are in the same team. Li Chongzhao, Li Chongfu, the three princesses of the Li Xian family, and the daughters of the Taiping family are in the same team. The others are watching on the two sides of the stage.
The three pillars stand against each other and do not give in to each other.
When Emperor Wu came, Tongtong and Fourth Master saw it just in time.
She stood on the side and said, "This is the result you want!"
It's not the result I want, but no matter how it works, it must be such a result. Fortunately, the children are taught with a bottom line and are not stupid, which is enough.
Emperor Wu then smiled, not knowing whether it was ridicule, but a smile of relief.
She looked at the fierce football match below, but she said to Tongtong, "In my opinion, you are still not as good as me."
Lin Yutong nodded, very sincerely, "I have already said that I am far behind you."
"But in these years, the courtiers have supported you, the world has been stable, the world has been at peace, and the Tang Dynasty has conquered the world. You have done really well."
It is a great honor to receive a compliment from you. Emperor Wu said again, "I seem to have lost, but in fact I have not! In the past few years, I have often thought, why did I get to this point? I am observing you, or maybe I am.
, observe you. What makes you luckier than me is that there is someone behind you. I have nothing to rely on, but you have someone to rely on." After that, he looked at the Fourth Master, "right? The British Lord."
Fourth Master nodded towards her and then smiled.
Emperor Wu moved his gaze to Tongtong, "Ming Chongyan's calculation back then was not accurate, but the difference was not big. He was right. Each of you has a dragon shadow on your body, including the consort! He is a hidden figure.
The real dragon behind you! Every big move of the Tang Dynasty is in his chest. If you really want to distinguish the priorities, you really can't tell the difference."
Tongtong nodded, "You have unique vision and you are right."
Emperor Wu was curious, "Aren't you afraid that he will have different intentions and usurp the country? He is a man, a man with a big heart."
Tongtong shook his head, "I'm not afraid, I trust him."
Letter? This word is so unfamiliar.
Emperor Wu looked at the fourth master again: "With your ability, it was not difficult to coax her into giving the country to you, but why didn't you move? It means that in the future the country will belong to your descendants, but in the hands of the descendants, and in the hands of the descendants,
It’s different in your own hands.”
The Fourth Master smiled and said, "I do!"
"You make a plan to make wedding clothes for others."
The Fourth Master nodded, "I've thought about it, but I can't think of anything else to give her! Then I'll give her a kingdom." The kingdom in this period must have a different meaning to her! So far, she has
Everyone respects Emperor Wu, which shows that she also has many regretful things that she has not done. Now that she is here, it would be too incompetent for her to leave with regrets.
I'm just willing to give her a kingdom and let her do what she wants to do, isn't it?
What's more, "She can shoulder the weight of the country, I believe in her."
Letter? Letter again!
Emperor Wu could not help but feel sad, "If there is one more trust between me and the late emperor... maybe everything will be different."
Actually it's not the case! If there is a right between you, you can't trust it.
Emperor Wu looked at his grandchildren galloping on the court, "I'm really old... I'm afraid I'm going to see the late emperor soon..." As he said that, he looked at Lin Yutong solemnly: "Bury me back to your father.
Remove the title of emperor and be buried as a concubine."
Lin Yutong turned to look at her, "No matter what identity you are buried in, you are the bravest woman in history, bar none."
"She is also the most ruthless woman in history, bar none." Emperor Wu said this and smiled again, "I don't want to leave a single word on my tombstone..."
Understand! It’s up to you to comment on whether it’s right or wrong!
Yes! I dare to do it if I dare to do it. Why should I fear what others say?
After saying that, she turned around and walked away! As she gets older, she walks very slowly, and even though her figure is lonely, she doesn't look heroic at all.
After a long time, Tongtong finally looked away, turned her face and asked Fourth Master: "When we die in the future, what should we write on the tombstone?"
No matter what you write, it is a matter for future generations. Whether it is praise or damage, what does it have to do with you and me? He asked Tongtong, "Where do you want to go in the next life?"
Where are you going? Tongtong looked at the increasingly fierce battlefield below, hugged Fourth Master's arm and shook it, "I just want to take a rest, I'm so tired!"
Are you tired? This is easy, just rest when you are tired, I will be there for everything! No matter what you want, I can give it to you!
