Confucian self-cultivation: Scholars start from Daqin

As soon as these words came out, everyone was surprised.

Gao Jing smiled and said to Gai Nie: "Mr. Gai Nie has the common people in his heart, it's a pity to be involved in Zongheng!"

Gai Nie cupped his hands, noncommittal to Gao Jing's words.

Mr. Shang said in disbelief: "Just alive?"

Gao Jing shook his head and said: "Living is not that simple, in addition to being able to keep your body, you must also be able to put your mind on it!

Shelter is very simple, food and clothing and security, but in addition, a heart must have something to sustenance! "

Mr. Shang asked suspiciously: "Do you have something to entrust to your heart?"

Gao Jingjing nodded and said: "For ordinary people, a family, a wife, and a few children are enough to put their hearts on. For those with ambitions, continuous learning can also put their hearts on it.

Why is the Qin army so powerful?Beheading and knighting is what they want!

The people are very simple, as long as they have sustenance in their hearts, they can survive no matter how difficult the conditions are. "

Mr. Shang nodded thoughtfully, and said, "What Mr. said makes sense!"

Gao Jing continued: "On the basis of being alive, people still need to communicate with each other. Mr. Shang, are you willing to associate with people who are benevolent and honest, or are you willing to associate with people who are treacherous and cunning?"

Mr. Shang replied: "Of course it is the former!"

Gao Jing nodded, and said: "Being able to put one's heart on one's body and have interpersonal communication, the needs of those with ambitions will go further. They want to realize their ambitions based on what they have learned..."

Mr. Shang blurted out: "This is Confucianism's self-cultivation, family harmony, governance of the country and peace of the world!"

Gao Jing smiled and said, "So Mr. Shang now knows what Confucianism is?"

Mr. Shang sighed: "Sure enough, as you said, Confucianism is what people need! There are also many Confucian scholars in Qin, but none of them can explain what Confucianism is as clearly as you do!"

"Young Master Shang has won the prize."

Mr. Shang let out a long breath and said, "May I ask you sir, if the state of Qin wants to change its laws in the future, how should it be changed?"

"I don't know." Gao Jing said simply.

Mr. Shang was stunned: "Sir, don't you know?"

Gao Jing pointed to Han Fei who was on the side, and said, "Han Fei also said that things will change when the world changes, and things will change when things change. There has never been a unified seven kingdoms in ancient times, and naturally there is no regime that can be used as a reference."

Mr. Shang subconsciously asked: "Then what should we do?"

"If you don't know, you will learn!"

Gao Jing said calmly: "The word "learning" runs through the entire Confucianism. Confucius said that he is sensitive and eager to learn, and he is not ashamed to ask his subordinates. Senior brother Xunzi also said that learning is not enough..."

Mr. Shang was stunned: "That's why you said to the king of Han that the time for Confucianism to govern is the time for the six kings to complete the four seas. Among the hundreds of schools, only Confucianism is good at "learning", and "learning" for the world that has never been seen in ancient times. A complete system!"

Gao Jing nodded.

Mr. Shang thought for a while, and then asked: "Sir, have you ever read Mr. Han Fei's works?"

Gao Jing nodded, looked at Han Fei, and said, "Han Fei is indeed a genius of Legalism, integrating "magic power" into one, it can be called a masterpiece of Legalism!"

Mr. Shang asked expectantly: "Sir, what do you think of Mr. Han Fei's "law"?"

Gao Jing thought for a while, and said: "Two words can be summed up, that is, "law of the king"! Implementing laws and governing the country with the king's will is very popular with the king. If you want to govern the country in the future, you can't do without "Han Fei." "These two words!"

Han Fei listened from the sidelines. Although he tried his best to restrain himself, a smile could not help but appear on the corner of his mouth: "Young Master Uncle is too famous."

"Wang Fa?"

Mr. Shang murmured, and said: "Sure enough, it is the "law of the king". Mr. summed it up brilliantly. I don't know what kind of law Mr. Confucianism advocates?"

Gao Jing sighed, and said, "Naturally, it is the "civil law", a law made for the common people... But it is too idealistic at the moment, and we can only include a little "civil law" in the "king's law"!"

Mr. Shang's expression was a little excited, he stared at Gao Jing, and said, "Sir, when Qin State unifies the six countries, if there is a need for reform, what can you teach me?"

Gao Jing thought for a while and said, "If Mr. Shang really has this heart, there are two people that Mr. Shang must get."

"Which two people?" Mr. Shang asked impatiently.

"The first one is him." Gao Jing pointed to Han Fei and said, "Han Fei!"

Han Fei smiled wryly.

Mr. Shang nodded approvingly: "Sir, you have great insight, so I don't know who the second person is?"

Gao Jing silently spit out a name: "Li Mu!"

Mr. Shang was surprised and said, "Li Mu, the guard of Yanmen Gate in Zhao Kingdom? Why him?"

Gao Jingdao: "The reform method is most afraid of external interference. With Li Mu here, the northern wolves dare not set foot in the Central Plains!"

Mr. Shang said unconvinced: "My Daqin also has elite troops, enough to repel the wolves."

Gao Jing shook his head and said: "Li Mu used 10 wolves to build a landscape, and the prestige gained has penetrated into the hearts of the wolves, but Qin has no such people, and Li Mu's cavalry can take the initiative to attack the wolves, while Qin The army can only defend..."

Just as he was talking, there was a sudden "tattling" marching pace outside.

Gai Nie, who was fascinated by the sound, looked out the window and said seriously: "It's the Korean Imperial Army, Mr. Shang, we should go!"

Wei Zhuang also said: "It's Ji Wuye and Bai Yifei, both of them are here... It's too late, the imperial army has already surrounded Zilanxuan."

Han Feizi's girls all looked anxious.

Mr. Shang sat calmly, not worried at all.

Gao Jing sighed, put down his teacup, got up and said, "Young Master Shang will come later, Jing will come as soon as he goes."

With that said, he left the room without haste, went downstairs to the door of Zilanxuan, and opened the door.

Facing Ji Wuye, Bai Yifei, and thousands of Korean guards alone.

Chapter 42 Scolding

Confucianism is different from Taoism and Buddhism. Confucianism does not reject its own nature.

"University" also said, "If you like sex, like bad smell, this is called self-modesty."

Whether it is a beautiful woman or an aversion to smell, this is human nature!

Recognizing that beauty is "knowledge", and then liking beauty is "action", this is the unity of knowledge and action, the original heart, and the body without goodness and disgust.

There are good and malicious actions.

Because of liking for beauty, the "mind" is moved, for example, liking for beauty and wanting to get close, if there is a crooked thought in the heart, it is "maliciousness", and it is necessary to "check the heart", and get rid of this kind of crooked thought.

On the contrary, because you like beauty, but don't hold any bad intentions, and follow the rules to get close, that is "goodwill" and you need to keep it!

Confucian "self-denial" is the intention of "good and evil" in the original mind of "no good and no evil". The conscience of "knowing good and knowing evil" will tell you which are "malicious" and which are "good" , and then "removing evil for good is to investigate things", the grid removes "maliciousness" and retains "goodwill".

Instead of directly erasing the "intentional movement" like Buddhism and Taoism, it is equivalent to erasing the source.

Taoism's "concentration" doesn't even have "consciousness", let alone conscience, only the pure heart of neither good nor evil, so I said before that Taoism doesn't teach people "good and evil". points!

The reason why it appeared later was also influenced by Confucianism!

Confucianism does not reject nature, such as "a gentleman loves money and obtains it in a proper way", such as "when he is in love, he stops at propriety, if he wants to do what he wants and does not violate the rules!"...

Therefore, when Confucians see beautiful women, as long as they have no bad intentions, do not violate the rules, and take the initiative to get close to them, not only is it not a bad thing, but it is also worthy of praise.

There are more than 300 articles in "Book of Rites", most of which are about the love between men and women.

Confucianism has three wives and four concubines, there are many great Confucians visiting brothels, and it's still an elegant thing!

Confucianism is a knowledge of the world, so don't confuse Confucianism's "fixation" with Taoism and Buddhism. Confucianism's "fixation" is based on the basis of conscience and respects "human nature"!

Like money?Yes, as long as it does not violate conscience, take it in a proper way.

Like beauty?Yes, as long as it doesn't go against the other party's wishes, it's okay to stop at the ceremony.

like entitlement?Yes, as long as you take responsibility accordingly.

like status?Yes, as long as you can "rectify your name" and have the ability to meet your status.

……

On the day that Xueyihou's Mansion was burned, Yan Lingji had actually secretly visited Gao Jing and told what had happened.

Especially the secret passage they entered the ice cellar, both sides were covered with white bones, countless.

Yan Lingji, who has always been lawless, can't help showing fear when she recalls it afterwards. One can imagine what kind of tragic situation it was.

There is such a thing in the original plot, Bai Yifei needs to suck human blood, and also needs to use people to raise Gu.

The Emerald Tiger collects beauties from all over South Korea, leaving a small half to Ji Wuye and the other half to the palace, but is given to Bai Yifei by the trendy banshee.

And they're all young and beautiful.

The white bones in the tunnel are those women who have been sucked dry of blood and raised Gu all over their bodies after death.

Gao Jing knew about this, but he didn't have any real sense of it from the plot.

But when Yan Lingji described it with lingering fears, Gao Jing's heart was finally touched, and he kept holding back his breath.

Who are those women whose blood was sucked to death?How fearful are those women who are alive and parasitized by Gu insects?

Gao Jing couldn't imagine what kind of torture it would be if he was a parasite of Gu insects when he was alive.

Until now, Ji Wuye and Bai Yifei led the forbidden army to besiege Zilanxuan.

The anger that Gao Jing had been holding back in his heart finally found a way to vent!

……

The door of Zilanxuan opened, and Gao Jing walked out from inside without haste.

Ji Wuye stepped forward with some apprehension, and said: "Mr. Gao, Ji got the news that there is a traitor hiding in Zilanxuan, and he specially brought troops to arrest him. Please forgive me if there is any disturbance."

Ji Wuye didn't even dare to assassinate Zhang Kaidi, a Confucian disciple, and only dared to compete in court, let alone Gao Jing, a "little Confucian uncle".

If Gao Jing stayed in Zilan Pavilion all the time, it would be really hard for him to rush in rashly.

"General Ji is easy."

Gao Jing saluted, then looked at Bai Yifei at the side, and said, "Gao just has a few words in his heart, and he can't vomit quickly...Blood clothes, Bai Yifei!"

The stern Bai Yifei was stunned for a moment, then looked at Gao Jing.

Gao Jing said in a deep voice: "I heard that your mother is the only female marquis in South Korea, and she should have made a lot of contributions, making everyone from the kings and ministers of South Korea to the Li Shu of South Korea have to admire her to achieve this unprecedented feat. Merit!"
