Eight hundred and forty-fifth chapter aftermath (2)
ps. Here is today’s update. By the way, I am asking for votes for Qidian 515 Fan Festival. Everyone has 8 votes. If you vote, you will also receive Qidian coins. I beg you all for your support and appreciation!
Half an hour later, Liu Che was in the front hall of Weiyang Palace and met the minister Ling Ji An, the Shaofu Ling Liu She, the Mo Yuan Ling Yang Yi and the Yuan Jian Cheng Feng who were ordered to come to see him.
The Mohist organization was the most rigorous among all the scholars, and it almost had the embryonic form of later partisanships.
The leader of the Mohist family is known as the Juzi. Since Mo Zhai, every Juzi has the power to command every Mohist.
Of course, the Mohist family is not an iron bucket.
In history, the Mohist family experienced several splits and internal strife.
Conflicts over ideas and differences in lines led to several splits in the Mohist school to establish a new central government.
Among the scholars, Nongjia is a school of thought that is separated from Mohism.
But now, the entire Mohist family has become more united than ever before.
Every Mohist who has survived to this day knows very well that his own orthodoxy and school can no longer withstand any internal strife and disputes.
Therefore, under Liu Che's regulation and leadership, the Mohist School has now carried out the most profound reforms and changes since the Warring States Period.
The most obvious change is that the juzi no longer has a lifetime tenure, but has a term of office. Each juzi has a term of three years and can be reelected for a maximum of two terms.
Moreover, the Juzi is no longer determined by the previous Juzi.
Instead, a recommendation system was adopted.
The specific system is that when the previous emperor is one year away from leaving office, the Mohist family will convene all those with the identity and title of "Mozhi" to hold an all-Mozhi meeting.
All Mohists can nominate their favorite candidate for the next Juzi in an anonymous manner at this meeting.
The top three with the most votes will become candidates for the next position.
When the current generation of magnates retires, the relevant candidates, their resumes and reports will be presented to Liu Che.
Liu Chelai designated and appointed the new Juzi.
This brand-new system ensures that all Mohists can unite under the banner of Juzi without division or internal strife.
Differences in concepts and ******** differences have been unified and coordinated to the greatest extent.
On the other hand, through this method, Liu Che realized for the first time the penetration and intervention of royal power into a certain school of thought.
When the great princes of the Mohist family needed the monarch's power to appoint and designate, in fact, the Mohist family, which had been unruly and free and unruly since the Warring States Period, had been subdued by Liu Che.
What's even better is that through this system, Liu Che can eliminate those dangerous elements and extremists of the Mohist family.
At the same time, it can also stimulate the vitality and competition within the Mohist family.
Avoid bureaucracy and other messy things that have overly infected this school of thought and affected its original mission.
The current Juzi of the Mohist family is Yang Yi's teacher, Zhang Xu from Qi State.
According to the new system, this giant's term is coming to an end.
Therefore, the Mohist family held an election meeting and elected three candidates for Juzi.
Yang Yi is one of them.
As a result, he became the order of Mo Yuanyuan. As Juzi's assistant, he began to gradually take over and learn how to manage the Moh family.
But in fact, the current Mo family is still easy to manage.
As of today, the total number of people who can hold the title of Mohist is only a hundred or so.
Basically, all Mohists came from the era when Mohists were suppressed and excluded. Those who are willing to live in poverty and still practice their own ideas are naturally true lovers.
There are no opportunists or bureaucrats with ulterior motives.
They are all lovely intellectuals and idealists.
However, as the Mohist family recovered, more and more nobles and ministers began to pay attention.
A large wave of speculators are already gearing up to join the Mohists.
This is something that is inevitable and will definitely happen.
The Mohist school in the future is likely to become like the Confucian-Legalist Huang Lao, from a purely idealist salon and club to a tool that is used as a springboard.
In the eyes of bureaucrats, whether it is universal love and non-aggression, benevolence, justice, morality, and a gentleman's conduct, they are actually the same.
It's just a slogan. If you take it seriously, you will lose.
Just like that *** two thousand years later, even servant of the people and serving the people wholeheartedly can become official slogans.
Are there any ideals and concepts in this world that cannot be used as slogans by bureaucrats?
But Liu Che had no intention of stopping this process, nor was he willing to stop it.
China has been a secular country and a realistic political power since ancient times.
Whatever gods, demons, Buddhas and Taoism, whatever etiquette and integrity a gentleman has, they all ultimately serve reality.
Idealists may exist, but they are never suitable for government.
If the Mohists want to develop and survive, they must bow to the secular world and move closer.
At least, a bureaucrat who values technology and scientific inventions is better than a useless person who talks about benevolence, righteousness, and morality, talks about nothing at all times, and repays the king with death in case of emergency.
Of course, the Mohists are not entirely harmless.
Its advanced organization and strong internal discipline may become a headache for Liu Che's descendants in the future.
It may even become a hotbed of revolution.
But this has nothing to do with Liu Che.
If one day comes, he will probably have no bones left.
Liu Che only needs to promise that while he is alive, the Mohist family will obey his will and develop in the direction he wants.
Except that Juzi’s system has changed.
The Mohist school also began to reform its internal evaluation mechanism for Mohists under Liu Che's will.
Now, want to become a Mohist? It's very simple, just take the exam.
Of course, the Mohist internal examinations are completely different from the examinations.
Because it not only tests theory, but also tests practical ability.
If you want to become a Mohist, you not only need to study the relevant works of Mohism and memorize the essentials of various commonly used techniques, but also have above-average hands-on skills and be able to repair or assemble designated machinery within the specified time.
The introduction of this system allowed Liu Che to ensure that even if there were speculators and bureaucrats who sneaked into the Mohist school and even gained power, these speculators and bureaucrats would have above-average scientific and technological knowledge and capabilities.
In this way, at the very least, the bureaucrats born are also engineer bureaucrats.
It is enough to ensure that even if the Mohist family changes color, it will not deviate from its essence.
Now, under the guidance of Liu Che, the Mohists have slowly become a school of thought composed of engineers and scientists, and have embarked on the right path.
Confucianism has always been the most imaginative, seeking innovation and change.
The Legalists were not idle either, shouting loudly the slogan of promoting Confucianism and Legalism simultaneously.
Only the Huang-Lao School is still a pool of stagnant water and has not seen any signs of change similar to Confucianism, France and Mohism.
This made Liu Che a little worried.
He even wants to get rid of it and teach the scumbags of the Huang Lao sect to keep up with the development of the times.
Because the Huang-Lao sect has a very important position among all the schools of thought.
It is a lubricant that can reconcile and accommodate many different opinions and differences.
If it were not for the Huang-Lao sect to act as a buffer and mediator between various schools of thought, Confucianism, Legalism and Mohism would probably have lost their minds.
But after hesitating again and again in his heart, Liu Che gave up this decision.
It's not like he suddenly gained some moral integrity and lost face.
Rather, the Huang Lao faction has not yet tasted the unforgettable taste of failure.
They still feel good about themselves.
You can't wake up a person who is pretending to sleep. Only after the Huang Laopai has tasted setbacks and failures and fell into the abyss, and they know it hurts, will they want to change.
But Liu Cheruo took action personally and used the imperial power to force the Huang-Lao faction to make internal reforms.
Maybe it can extend their lives.
But doing so will most likely harm the Huang Lao Sect.
How can people who have never experienced hardship understand the importance of development?
Thinking like this, Liu Che looked at the guys kneeling in front of him.
"Young Master, Shanglinyuan's expansion report. I have read it, and the intention is good, but let's discuss the plan later!" Liu Che said calmly to Liu She who was kneeling in front of him.
Upon hearing this, the latter immediately bowed and said, "No! His Majesty Fu Wei is the Holy Judge!"
In politics, many times, some things do not need to be said too carefully.
Just like the boss of Tu Chao in later generations said: Generally speaking, the development trend of a certain job is good.
But in fact, the underlying meaning is that there is a big problem in your work, go back and let the labor and management reflect on it!
Liu Che's meaning at this time is the same. The intention is good and the idea is correct. Let's discuss the plan again. But your plan is so bad that I can't stand it. Go back and redo it!
"How is the situation at Mo School recently?" Liu Che turned to look at Yang Yi with a smile and asked. For an idealist like Yang Yi, you can't answer these riddles. When you talk to them, you must explain clearly, so Liu Che paused.
Then he continued: "I heard that you turned away many princes and nephews who came to apply. This is not good! If you are a noble of the country and are determined to learn, no matter what, this attitude is always good. Confucius said
: There is no distinction between education and distinction. Mo Zhai also once said that we should 'love all'. I think the Mohist family should have a larger mind and a more tolerant attitude towards talents. We can't just leave it to our own temperament..."
Mohism, the current mainstream is idealist.
Everyone from top to bottom is a true fan of Mo Zhai's thoughts.
Such a group has very high moral standards and requirements.
Let alone disciples, even students of Mo School who are registered disciples, their requirements are outrageously strict.
Recently, many lieutenants came to complain to Liu Che, saying that their nephews went to Mo School to register, but were kicked out.
Even those who managed to sneak in were often kicked out within a few days.
The Mohists of the Mohist School also imposed their own requirements on the students of the Mohist School.
He asked them to be like him, live in plain clothes, eat a diet, love the world, go barefoot and wear raincoats.
How is this possible!
Moreover, such high requirements are not conducive to the development and growth of the Mohist family.
What's more, idealists tend to go to extremes.
And China has never needed extremists of any kind.
In the past, what Liu Che hated most were self-righteous guys or factions like Cihang Jingzhai.
Whether you are a person or a scholar, it is better to be realistic.
From this point of view, it is beneficial to the development of the Mohist family to allow the nobles' descendants and bureaucrats to infiltrate into the Mohist family.
Don’t you see, in later generations, even Buddhism will have to comply with the requirements of the Chinese people and be localized.
In essence, Chinese Buddhism and Indian Buddhism are two different religions.
[515 is coming soon, and I hope to continue to hit the 515 red envelope list. On May 15th, the red envelope rain will be given back to readers and promotional works. It is also love, and I will definitely update it!] (~^~)
