Confucian self-cultivation: Scholars start from Daqin

Gao Jingdao: "Our Confucian school has a saying that when you give vanilla to others, the fragrance of the vanilla will still be left in your hands--it just so happens that I know a way to make a bed from adobe bricks, and set up a stove in the room. A hollow chimney vents the smoke out of the house, with holes in the bed slump, the same as a hollow chimney...  

This method can make the house much warmer, and it doesn't need to burn firewood all day, if you believe me, I can teach you this method, and then you can leave it to others..."

When Gao Jing first spoke, the villagers were already excited.

After Gao Jing finished speaking, the villagers all got up and knelt down without saying a word, with tears in their eyes.

Xuenv walked to Gao Jing's side at some point, and said with a smile, "I think you don't need to ask if you are willing anymore!"

Gao Jing also sighed.

Still underestimated the respect ordinary people have for knowledge!

……

The whole village got active, those who could work worked, and those who couldn't work gathered around to watch, refusing to let go of the slightest detail.

"...The reason why we didn't put the stove inside the house before was because of the heavy smoke. As long as we keep the smoke out of the house, we can keep out the cold... Remember not to expose the smoke, or you will be poisoned..."

Gao Jing held the open wordless book in one hand, and at the same time directed the villagers to make mud, paste kang!

The enthusiasm of the villagers cannot be expressed in words.

The kang was built quickly. Although it was still damp, when the stove was lit with firewood, the high temperature baked the moist soil into white mist, and the temperature in the room began to rise obviously...

The villagers couldn't contain their excitement, and the cheers almost toppled the roof.

Gao Jing quietly pulled Xue Nu and Yan Ling Ji out, and said in a low voice, "It's time for us to hit the road."

Yan Lingji was stunned: "Aren't we here to stay overnight?"

Gao Jing said angrily, "I've eaten at someone else's food, and whose house do I still want? Go tell Xuan Jian and Eldest Brother, let's go first!"

After finishing speaking, he took Xue Nu to find the carriage and drove out of the village quietly.

……

When the villagers realized that Gao Jing had disappeared, there was a commotion!

Black and white Xuanjian was able to escape the crowd with lightness kung fu, but Dianqing's huge body was tightly surrounded by the villagers.

He can't run rampant among the villagers, he can only move a little bit, and at the same time explain earnestly, saying that they really need to hurry and so on...

It's hard for him to be an honest man of few words.

At this time, the villagers were no longer afraid of Dianqing's figure, and surrounded him tightly. An old man said with tears in his eyes, "We dare not hinder the benefactor's journey, but at least let us clear the road for the benefactor, and don't let him The stone hits the benefactor's feet..."

Dianqing was also troubled, except that he was walking, and everyone else was sitting in a carriage.

"Then at least leave the name of the benefactor. When we spread this method, we can also tell others who gave them 413 a warm nest in the cold weather and kept them from freezing to death..."

Dianqing was silent for a while, and said seriously: "My master is Gao Jing, a Confucian disciple!"

"Gao Jing! Gao Jing! Gao Jing!"

The villagers knelt down, raised their hands to the sky, and shouted three times...

……

When Dianqing caught up with the carriage, the carriage had already left the village several miles away.

Yan Lingji huddled in the carriage, only showing a beautiful face, she giggled and said, "Brother, can you escape?"

Dianqing pursed his lips and said in a muffled voice, "Remember to let me know next time!"

Yan Lingji said perfunctorily: "Yeah, definitely next time!"

Xue Nu leaned on Gao Jing's shoulder, her eyes blurred, and she said, "I've never been so happy!"

Gao Jing asked strangely, "Why did you come here?"

Xue Nu tilted her head, smiled and said nothing, but she didn't leave either.

When Yan Lingji retracted the carriage, she saw Xue Nu occupying her position, and immediately raised her eyebrows: "Hey, what do you mean? Get out of the way!"

Xue Nu smiled and straightened up, leaving Gao Jing's shoulder.

Yan Lingji was confused.

Chapter 89 Class Old Man

Mohism's concept of governance is called "Shangtong", also known as "Shangtong".

It means that from the emperor, to the princes, to the general, the doctor, and the head of the village, everyone's political ideas must be unified!

For example, the common people should obey the head of the township, the head of the township should obey the doctor, the doctor should obey the general, the general should obey the princes, and the princes should obey the emperor...

At the same time, the reverse is also the same, the township head must obey the wishes of the common people, and the doctor must obey the wishes of the township head... Everyone must act according to "righteousness".

But in this way, the highest emperor can't be restricted in his actions, so the Mohists have a saying of "Ming Gui", and give the emperor another level.

Mohists believe that ghosts and gods not only exist, but also can reward and punish the good and evil in the world.

Therefore, once the Son of Heaven does not act in accordance with the "righteousness of the world" and does not have the "supreme unity" with heaven, heaven will punish him.

"Since the husband is still the same as the Son of Heaven, but not yet the same as the Heaven, the natural disasters will not stop.

Therefore, if the husband is not tempered by cold and heat, the snow, frost and rain are not seasonable, the five grains are not ripe, the six animals are not successful, the disease is plagued by epidemics, the wind is bitter and the rain is recommended, and the punishment will be punished by the heaven. Same as heaven. "

Later, Dong Zhongshu learned this trick and came up with a "response between heaven and man" to limit the power of the king.

"Response between heaven and man" comes from Hong Fan's article in "Shangshu", saying that heaven and human beings are of the same kind and interact with each other.

Therefore, the Confucianism of the Gongyang lineage linked the disasters that occurred in the heaven and the earth with the actions of the emperor.

Its fundamental purpose is to limit the rights and actions of the supreme ruler.

Yan Qi Junction.

"...So, this is Shang Tong Mo Fang々‖?"

Gao Jing played with the Baoshi Cube in his hand—it was actually a Rubik's Cube, and looked at the old man Ban with a big belly in front of him.

According to the agreement, Six Fingers Heixia sent old man Ban over, bringing a bunch of bamboo slips, to teach Gao Jing mechanism skills.

It's just that the old man Ban asked Gao Jing to untie Shangtong's Mofang as soon as he came up, otherwise the bamboo slips could be read, but he couldn't teach Gao Jing's tricks.

"At the beginning, in order to let everyone remember Shangtong's teachings, the patriarch invented this ink prescription in his spare time."

The old man Ban was short, with a big belly, and his left hand was disabled. He replaced it with a mechanical hand and explained: "The core of Mofang is a cardan shaft, which is composed of 26 small squares. This is the simplest mechanical technique, but it contains the most complex. Operational and spatial principles.

If you can't restore Shangtong Mofang, it means you don't have the talent to learn mechanism skills, so I won't waste this time, old man. "

Gao Jing smiled, and didn't care about the displeasure in the old man's tone. He handed the ink prescription back to him, and said: "The six arts of Confucianism also have "numbers". I shouldn't be troubled by strategic planning, so I'll give it a try."

In fact, Confucianism has a lot of research on mathematics.

It's just a pity that as Confucianism's status in the world is getting higher and higher, and the more it travels, many Confucian scholars just use Confucianism as a tool to package themselves, and there are fewer and fewer who can really settle down to study it.

No matter what, as long as the street is rotten, it will no longer attract people's attention!

Rare is precious!

Old man Ban randomly messed up the ink formula with one hand, and said displeasedly: "I think I am quite talented in mechanical skills, and it took a full month to solve Shang Tong's ink formula..."

"Enhm, amazing!"

Gao Jing admired, and asked seemingly unintentionally: "By the way, Gao Jianli is safe?"

The old man Ban was disturbing Mo Fang, when he heard the words, he subconsciously said: "It has been safely sent back to the organ city... What is Gao Jianli? The old man doesn't understand!"

Old man Ban, who came to his senses, glared at Gao Jing viciously.

Gao Jing smiled, and cast a look at Xue Nu who was beside him.

Xue Nu smiled slightly, she knew that Gao Jing was asking for her.

No matter what Gao Jianli's intentions are, it is a fact that he entered Yanchun Jun's mansion for Xuenv, not to mention that he took the blame for "assassinating Yanchun Jun" for Xuenv.

This love, Snow Girl has to admit it!

Now that it was confirmed that Gao Jianli was fine, Xue Nu also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Take it!"

Angrily, old man Ban threw the messed up Mo Fang to Gao Jing, and said with aggrieved heart: "You are full of pitfalls in your words."

"No wonder no wonder."

Gao Jing looked at Mo Fang with a smile, then fiddled with it with one hand, looked at the old man Ban, and asked, "Master Ban came riding a Suzaku?"

"Yes, so what?"

Gao Jing asked curiously, "Where is Suzaku? Can we take a look around?"

"It's not here anyway." The old man ban said, "Want to see Suzaku? Let's talk about it after solving Shang Tong Mo Fang!"

"Oh."

Gao Jing nodded and raised his hand: "It's untied."

In Gao Jing's hand, Shang Tongmo, who was disturbed, had already replied, and he held it up in front of the old man Ban.

The old man's eyeballs almost protruded, and he looked like he had seen a ghost: "You...you..."

Gao Jing chuckled and said, "Can you take us to meet Suzaku now?"

"……how did you do it?"

(Good job) Gao Jing thought for a while, and said with a smile, "Probably...you didn't give up?"

In the original book, Tianming seems to answer like this.

The old man suddenly blew his beard angrily.

This old man is very cute.

Gao Jing laughed loudly and said, "Once upon a time, two people tried to cross the river. The first person to cross the river was the slowest and took a long time to reach the other side, while the second person only took half the time, so the former person asked: Are you familiar with this river?

The latter person shook his head and said: I am not familiar with it.

The previous person asked again: Since you are not familiar with it, why did you only spend so little time on it.

The latter person replied: The reason why I only spent so little time is because I crossed the river along the way you walked.
