It's scary, the group is actually full of ancient bigwigs

Chapter 247 Chapter 240 Six Meat Eaters
Environment can really affect people.

One-handed chariot—

"From the beginning of my education, I began to pay attention to the impact of the environment."

"Parents are good-natured, and children are generally good."

"The teacher leads by example, and the disciples can be excellent."

"People are imitators at first, so I put forward the idea that nature is inherently good."

Confucius thought about the environment of the Spring and Autumn Period and sighed.

.........

Su Xi thought about the environment during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, especially the environment of noble scholars, and thought it was really good.

The people of that era were really nice.

"To be honest, scholars in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods can survive in any era, and they live very well."

"However, in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, the scholars of later generations would never survive, and would die miserably."

Su Xi felt that the scholars of that era were really perfect.

.........

Rich playboy-

"Not so much."

Huo Qubing didn't believe it.

……

True - self-made -

"Again, I don't think so."

"Many scholars in later generations are still good."

……

I will not change history—

"I think my scholar from Datang is pretty good."

Everyone needs face, and Li Shimin also wants to fight for it.

.........

Su Xi shook her head.

"No, there is a fundamental gap between the scholars of the Spring and Autumn and the Warring States Period and those of the Qin and Han Dynasties and later."

"That's the gap caused by the general environment. This gap will change the mentality of many people, so that the scholars in the two environments are fundamentally different."

Su Xi spoke with a look of emotion.

That's a really huge gap.

……

Son of God—

"Speak and listen."

Guangwu was interested, since Su Xi dared to say it, it would be absolutely fine.

……

"Meat eaters and emperors don't know goods, but goods and people who know goods."

"There's a fundamental difference between the two."

"Which of these two kinds of scholars do you think you like more?"

"And you think the environment of the two scholars is better."

Su Xi's indifferent words revealed a terrifying fact.

Everyone's mentality exploded a bit.

……

The ancestor of China—

"The first meat eater is contemptible, this kind of mentality is very good."

"Being scolded by subordinates and courtiers is not a big deal. The big thing is that the country is dead, and the big thing is that scholars are unwilling to serve the country."

"Holding people is a compulsory course for emperors, but meat eaters are despicable. At least when the country is in crisis, scholars will scold the king and save the country."

Shi Huang spoke first.

.........

"The style of a hermit in the Han Dynasty must be invited by the king before he is willing to go out of the mountain, otherwise he will stay in the deep mountains and old forests for a lifetime."

"This kind of atmosphere, how can you compare it with the scholars of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods?"

"At the beginning of the Three Kingdoms, the meritocracy and arrogance of talents made the king look at the cottage. This is not a good phenomenon."

"During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Sui and Tang Dynasties, there were many people who lived in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain to make a name for themselves, and then were invited out by officials from various places."

"The same is true in the Ming Dynasty. How many people in the opposition crazily scolded the court, and then made a lot of money."

"This kind of person will be beaten to death in the era of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period when meat eaters are contemptible."

Su Xi couldn't help teasing.

……

All the emperors from Liu Bang turned black, especially Zhuge Liang, who was the one who visited the thatched cottage three times.

Su Xi directly called names, what you did was wrong.

Since you are talented, and you have the heart to serve the country, why don't you go out of the mountain as soon as possible, and you will only be willing after visiting the thatched cottage three times. This is too much.

I can only say that you are too proud.

.........

One-handed chariot—

"Indeed, the reason for the high status of scholars in the Spring and Autumn Period is that there are few scholars and that scholars are truly willing to defend their families and the country."

"Meat eaters are despicable. No matter how stupid the monarch is, they are willing to serve the country. After the king is willing to use it, they will serve the country and the people wholeheartedly."

"This is the accumulated reputation, the reputation of the entire scholar group."

Confucius shook his head and sighed.

That was maintained.

Just like he is willing to be an official in Lu State, he will go to other countries after Lu State does not use him.

The first choice is always your home country.

……

The ancestor of China—

"Shang Yang, Li Si, Wei Ran, these people's first choice is their original country."

"It's still the same sentence. After they were not reused in their original country, they chose to leave and seek refuge in a wise monarch."

"But the emperor doesn't know the goods, the goods and the people who know the goods, they live in a unified country, and they have a complete promotion system."

"In general, in my opinion, the emperor and his officials are responsible for the cause of this situation."

Shi Huang said a fair word.

"If I'm a courtier and don't get the emperor's respect, I'm not willing to give everything."

"If the emperor is incompetent, it's not bad to find someone who is capable of saving the country."

Shi Huang laughed lightly.

Some things are all dependent on one person, which is an excessive thing in itself.

It can't be all due to the courtiers, the emperor is also responsible.

Just like Chongzhen, one can tell by looking at his actions that there are problems with this person's own operations.

If it was really a monarch with explosive combat power, he would have recovered his country long ago.

……

Shihuang opened his mouth to let this matter be exposed.

Everyone knows that no matter what, some literati in later generations are indeed not as good as those in the Spring and Autumn Period.

And now they speculate that the saying that the ancient sages said that the granary knows the etiquette, and the food and clothing know the honor and disgrace, I am afraid it is true.

I am afraid that this sentence is really possible in the environment of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods.

The more I think about it, the more I feel that I have fallen.

The scholars and emperors of their era have long been inferior to those of the previous era.

No wonder it is called the pre-Qin era in ancient times, no wonder the Qin Dynasty is used as the dividing line.

It turned out that there were really two environments.

The struggle in later generations became more serious, and the power gradually became polarized. The power at the bottom was getting smaller and smaller, while the power at the top was getting bigger and bigger.

In the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods and before, rights were almost equal.

The king is only more noble than the people, and the people are qualified to abolish the king.

Under the equality of rights, there are advantages and disadvantages, so the two sides cannot evaluate who is better.

.........

Zhuge Liang thought carefully about what had changed.

……

One thing came to Yue Fei's mind, no wonder only the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period had a republic. There was a reason for this. The monarchs of that era could not be the only one.

Only by restricting part of the royal power in advance can a republic be carried out.

This requires equal strength.

.........

The first emperor sighed, now he is less and less aware of the merits of the emperor.

The emperor's power exploded, and when he met a wise emperor through the ages, the upper limit of the combat power of the entire country would be terrifying.

If the emperor can't do it, the lower limit is also terrible.

This is a double-edged sword.
