Nine hundred and fiftieth chapters the ambition of ram school (3)
Four years ago, Hu Wusheng would not have dared to say these words.
Because at that time, the power of the Qingliu people was huge, and the pressure from public opinion was very strong.
However, with the emergence of waterwheels, new agricultural tools and cuirassiers.
The world's public opinion has quietly changed today.
Spurred by visible and tangible benefits, changes first occurred at the grassroots level, among ordinary people.
Ordinary people don't understand any big principles.
People only look at reality.
The current reality is that people, especially those in Guanzhong and Sanhe areas, have all used waterwheels, advanced agricultural tools, and reformed farming methods.
Land yields have been greatly increased.
The brilliant victory of the Cuirassiers in the Battle of Mayi shocked the landowners and bureaucrats all over the world!
Humans are not wood or stones, they are thinking creatures.
Especially those children from small and medium-sized landowner families who are a little bit educated and have seen the world.
In particular, the emergence of examinations has accelerated this process.
In the past two or three years, Hu Wusheng had faced more than once the problem of one of his disciples who passed the examination and became an official.
"Teacher, when I was an official in Guanzhong, I thought I was a Qiangfu. I saw with my eyes waterwheels, plows and various agricultural tools. They were convenient and beneficial to the people. The people all praised them. The three elders thought they were good... Why does the book say 'mechanics,'
Do you have a deceitful and false intention to ''mechanically transform''?"
If there are only one or two people thinking this way, then it doesn't matter.
But the point is, there are hundreds of thousands of people who think this way.
Moreover, they are all young and emerging, representing the future scholars.
Things in books can no longer keep up with the needs of the development of the times.
what to do?
For Ram Pie, it's very simple.
The founder of Xia pen sharpens the Spring and Autumn period, which is the best example.
Now that mechanical ornaments and miraculous skills are facing reality, they have already encountered a bankruptcy crisis.
Then, of course, before this ship sinks, you must find a new ship for yourself and your school of thought.
It is necessary to break the monopoly of public opinion and political correctness formed by mechanical decorations, grotesque tricks and mechanical hearts.
It is necessary to first overthrow the Lu-Confucian faction that regards this as a pretext, and also to destroy the so-called "not competing for interests with the people" thought that has stood in front of Confucianism for a long time.
For Confucians, there is really no pressure at all in doing this.
I think back then, after the Qin State became strong and prosperous, the Confucian scholars who entered Qin from the east were like crucian carp crossing the river.
After Qin Shihuang unified the world, in order to adapt to the system of the Qin Empire or to survive under the system of the Qin Empire.
Confucian scholars not only merged with Legalism, but also shouted the slogan of using both Confucianism and Legalism.
There are even many people who hook up with the Mo family.
At that time, there were no idiots who would call "mechanical jewelry" or "wonderful skills and tricks".
Otherwise, where do you think so many Confucian-born doctors under Qin Shihuang and Qin II came from?
For today's Gongyang sect, there is no pressure to pick up some things from the Qin Confucians back then, dust them off, and use them for their own use.
Of course, Qin, he should be scolded when he should be scolded, and he should be scolded when he should be scolded.
"Mr. Yang, am I right?" Hu Wusheng lowered his head and looked at the Dr. Lu Ru, with a smile on his face.
Hu Wusheng had been preparing for today half a year ago.
It was planned long ago to criticize Lu Ru on a daily basis.
The purpose is to peel off the halo and coat that envelopes Lu Ru's body layer by layer.
Now it seems that this strategy is very effective.
You see, even Lu Ru himself began to wonder if he had read the wrong book or believed in the wrong person?
As a result, Hu Wusheng touched the sensitive and core issues of Lu Ru so deeply.
And they could only listen to their comments submissively.
"The Lu-Ru lineage is finished!" Hu Wusheng sighed in his heart.
They have lost all their energy and spirit, and their hearts and organizations have been scattered.
This Dr. Yang is just trying to maintain his face and dignity.
The doctor named Yang looked at Hu Wusheng and then looked around.
His heart felt as if it had been cut by a knife.
But he was speechless.
Even the Huang Lao faction, which used to agree with him, remains silent.
They didn't dare to wade into this muddy water at all.
He looked at Hu Wusheng, and then at the others.
"Huzi, you are using the theory that a white horse is not a horse to attack our Lu-Ru lineage!" Dr. Yang said slowly: "This is what non-Confucians did!"
But they have completely forgotten how they confused right and wrong, confused logic and facts four years ago.
"Wulu Ru, I still have the same view: Anyone who has something to do must have a scheming mind. The scheming mind is just cunning and deceitful. It is not the work of a gentleman or the use of a minister!" He knew very well that if you can't argue with others, then you have to kill him.
Either ignore him or ignore him.
Lu Ru's current strength is not to mention that of attacking Hu Wusheng, the giant of the Gongyang faction.
Not even the opponent's hair can be hurt.
Then, I have no choice but to resort to a trick. No matter what you say, I will not move. In short, no matter what you say, as long as you stick to the principle of "anyone who has something to do must have a will, a heart of change, and deception and cleverness".
At least this way, there is no failure.
After saying these words, Dr. Yang waved his sleeves and walked away with his disciples.
Hu Wusheng looked at it and shook his head.
"Lu Ru is dead!" Other onlookers sighed.
Huang Laopai, on the other hand, watched this happen with great concern.
Lu Ru's performance today was extremely different.
They were completely defeated! They lost completely!
From now on, I am afraid that the ideological world will usher in an unprecedented discussion.
Mechanical ornaments and grotesque techniques are purely imaginary and figurative things, but once they are put into practical discussion.
I'm afraid I will collapse in front of the facts.
Just like Dr. Yang.
Huang Laopai knew very well that Dr. Yang could no longer debate.
To be fair, the other party could actually extend the debate towards whether virtue or virtue is more important, a proposition that is impossible to discuss clearly.
Why can't he debate anymore?
Because Hu Wusheng had already issued a warning.
That warning is: Zhuangzi. Heaven and Earth Chapter.
Others are unclear, but Huang Laopai knows the meaning of these words very well.
Because, the so-called deceit and scheming originally came from a story in Zhuangzi's "Heaven and Earth".
That is a story about Zigong.
What is said is that when Zigong traveled to Chu and Jin, he saw an uncle in the Hanyin area working hard to dig a channel, and then holding an urn, he lifted water from the well and poured it into the channel for irrigation.
own land.
But, at the mouth of the well, there is a tree.
It was a simple machine and the predecessor of the waterwheels that are found on both sides of the Wei River and in rivers all over the world today.
Zigong was very surprised and went to ask the uncle: Why did you leave the pot without using it and went to fetch water by yourself? You must know that "a weapon here can soak a hundred acres a day, and the effort will be small but the result will be much."
The uncle then laughed, first introduced the machine to Zigong, and then uttered the famous saying that Lu Ru and Huang Lao sect have used to attack machines to this day: If you have the machine in your chest, you will be completely unprepared... and in the end, with the long-term
The identity of the wife taught Zigong: if you are utilitarian and skillful, you must forget your wife's heart. If you are a wife, it is not because of your will that you will not do it, and it is not because of your heart that you will not do it.
In the beginning, this was actually just a philosophical story.
Like many stories in Zhuangzi's works, seemingly absurd stories are used to explore philosophy and thoughts.
However, Lu Ru and Huang Lao School of Han Dynasty politicized the content and thoughts of this story and made it part of their own theories and thoughts.
Various theories and rhetoric have been derived.
However, today, now, the rhetoric in Zhuangzi's chapter on heaven and earth cannot fool even an illiterate peasant.
Because waterwheels have entered thousands of households.
Today, in order to encourage landlords, powerful people, and ordinary people to install waterwheels, they even use subsidies.
People who install waterwheels can receive a certain amount of subsidies. Although these subsidies are not cash, they can buy various agricultural tools, salt and wine at Yantie Yamen.
Therefore, at least in the Guanzhong area, private waterwheel installation crazes have occurred one after another.
Now, almost more than half of Guanzhong counties are equipped with waterwheels, and almost all landlord families own a waterwheel.
In the face of this reality.
Let’s take Zhuangzi’s chapter on heaven and earth as an example.
That's like firing a map cannon.
One shot covered all the common people, landlords and dignitaries in Guanzhong.
If you persist, you may offend the entire Guanzhong!
Not to mention Lu Ru, even the Huang Lao sect couldn't hold it.
Even some giants from the Huang Lao faction have begun to wonder whether they should stop publicizing and talking about this matter in the future.
After all, the will of the people cannot be violated.
Especially the interests of the powerful people in Guanzhong cannot be violated!
……………………
Watching the Lu Ru people disappear from sight.
Hu Wusheng knew that it was time to stop today.
As the saying goes, too much is never enough.
and……
Hu Wusheng turned his attention to the south.
Where is the territory of Mr. Zhang Hui, the giant of Legalism and the true voice of law enforcement?
"Tonight, Zhang Zi will probably come to my house to talk..." Hu Wusheng thought in his mind: "Just in time, my disciple Gongsun Hong can meet Zhang Zi..."
This is his purpose.
The goal of his dedication and hard work has always been to promote the integration of Confucianism and Legalism, with a view to the co-governance of Confucianism and Legalism in the future.
Just like back then, the Republic was in power.
Because Hu Wusheng already knew and understood.
Neither Confucianism, Legalism, Huang Lao nor Mohism can govern alone.
Now, the power and influence of various schools of thought check and balance each other in the government and the opposition.
No one school of thought can conquer the other schools of thought.
What's more, within Confucianism, there are many mountains and various theories and ideas are rampant.
Therefore, it can only be two university factions that unite and advance and retreat together.
In fact, the only allies that Confucianism can choose are Legalists.
There is no other reason.
Simply because it is almost impossible for Mohism and Confucianism to coexist under the same roof.
The Huang Lao Sect is accustomed to being the boss, so it is impossible for them to bend down and join forces with their younger brothers, the Confucianists or the Legalists.
Now, Confucianism and Legalism complement each other.
Confucianism needs the high-level favor of Legalists and control of the political situation, and Legalists also need a large number of disciples and successors of Confucianism to wave the flag and strengthen its policies.
Now, the only question is: who is the Duke of Zhou and who is the Duke of Zhao? (To be continued.)
