Confucian self-cultivation: Scholars start from Daqin

Duan Murong also knew that Gao Jing's purpose in going to Qin was to save Han Fei.

"My master also told me about the nine sons of South Korea, and I have read his works."

Duanmu Rong asked suspiciously: "But I heard that the King of Qin likes Han Fei very much, so why would he kill him?"

Gao Jing couldn't explain it too deeply to Duanmu Rong, so he had to say: "A fellow villager with the same name as "Zeng Zi" once killed someone, and the "[-]" people found Zeng Zi's mother and told her: Zeng Zi killed someone.

Zeng Zi's mother said: "My son will not kill."Then continue spinning.

Another person came to Zeng Mu and said: Zeng Zi killed someone.This time, Zeng Mu became suspicious and stopped weaving.

The third person came to Zeng Mu and said: Zeng Zi killed someone.

This time, Zeng Zi's mother dropped the loom she was spinning and fled over the wall.

The king of Qin likes Han Fei very much, but can the king of Qin trust Han Fei, just like his mother trusted her son? "

Duanmu Rong shook her head and said, "Impossible."

Gao Jing sighed, and said, "Han Fei is the son of South Korea. If a minister of Qin State told King Qin that Han Fei came to steal Qin State's secrets, King Qin might not believe it...

But what if the ministers of Qin State said so one after another?

Zeng Zi's mother can't even get the message from three people, let alone King Qin? "

Duanmurong was stunned, followed by doubts: "But why did the minister of Qin state say that?"

"Han Fei made it himself!"

Gao Jing was also very helpless, and said: "Han Fei wrote a few books that scolded many people, and many people don't like him."

Of course, there are deeper reasons.

For example, Han Fei proposed "the law is not noble", advocating that "the minister should not be evaded if he is punished, and no one will be spared if he is rewarded".

The King of Qin made no secret of his admiration for Han Fei, and after taking power, he obviously began to improve Qin Fa according to Han Fei's ideas.

It's no wonder that Minister Qin has a good impression of Han Fei!

Although they would not openly violate Qin Law and attack Han Fei, they were sure to contribute to the flames behind the scenes, or stand on the sidelines.

But there is no need to explain these to Duanmu Rong.

……

After all, there is no feast that never ends.

After leaving the state of Qi, crossing the state of Wei, and about to enter South Korea, Nian Duan bid farewell.

Although Duanmurong was thinking about it, she couldn't make up her mind after all, and was finally taken away by Nianduan with tears in her eyes.

Before leaving, with tears in his eyes, Gao Jing asked Gao Jing to go to Jinghu to see her.

After that, Gao Jing and his party entered South Korea and went straight to Xinzheng.

The former Ji Wuye was dead, Bai Yifei was dead, and Emerald Lake was dead. The people who Han Fei said were harming South Korea were almost dead, but the lives of the people in South Korea had not improved significantly.

There are still two styles of painting inside and outside Xinzheng.

The people outside the city are hungry, and the nobles in the city are drunk.

Xinzheng is as luxurious as ever, not much different from before.

It can be seen that the dilapidated and weak South Korea has little to do with Ji Wuye and others... Or, Ji Wuye is just a representative of some people.

The carriage entered Xinzheng and went straight to Zilanxuan.

The lively Zilan Pavilion in the past is still prosperous at this time, but this prosperity carries a feeling of helplessness.

In the past, Zilanxuan was protected by Wei Zhuang in the rivers and lakes, and later had Han Fei in the court, so he could naturally treat the noble guests who came to the door with a strong attitude.

But it's different now. They lost Han Fei and Wei Zhuang successively. When facing the guests, the girls of Zilanxuan were already trying to please them.

Gao Jing observed at the door for a while, and then led Yan Lingji and Xuenv into Zilanxuan...  

Black and white Xuanjian and Wushuanggui took the carriage to the backyard.

……

"You're finally here, if you don't come, I won't be able to hold on!"

Seeing Gao Jing again, Zi Nu finally showed a relieved expression on her tired face, she came over to hug Gao Jing, put her head on Gao Jing's shoulder, and said nothing for a long time.

Gao Jing patted her on the back and said, "Don't worry!"

It was just two words that immediately made Nong Yu's eyes blush.

After a while, Zi Nu let go of Gao Jing, her expression relaxed, she looked Gao Jing up and down, and said, "When you grow up, sister, you can choose whatever you want from Zi Lan Xuan."

Gao Jing said bluntly: "Then you can talk to Nongyu."

"Greedy!" Zi Nu tapped Gao Jing's forehead angrily.

Nongyu also lowered her head shyly and sniggered.

"Hmph!" Yan Lingji snorted dissatisfiedly at the side.

"Let me introduce you."

Gao Jing pointed to Xue Nu beside him, and said, "This is Xue Nu, her dance has entered the realm."

This made Zi Nu and Nong Yu understand.

Nongyu squatted down to Xuenu, and said, "Lejia Nongyu, I have met everyone in Xuenu."

Xue Nu also formally returned the gift: "Lejia Xue Nu, I have met Nong Yu everyone 3.9!"

Zi Nu also said from the side: "Zi Nu from Le family, I have met two of you."

Snow Maiden was taken aback.

Gao Jing came to his senses and sighed helplessly.

Zi Nu explained with a smile: "Without the protection of Le Jia, one of the hundreds of families, my Zi Lan Xuan would have been wiped out long ago."

In the past, it was Zi Nu who protected Nong Yu and Miss Zi Lanxuan, but now it is the other way around, and it is Nong Yu who protects Zi Nu and other girls.

"Okay, tell me what's going on."

Gao Jing said seriously: "Did you fall out with Zhang Kaidi?"

Zi Nu was stunned, then smiled helplessly: "Sure enough, I guessed it right away.".

Chapter 98 Branches of Confucianism

Although all schools of thought have the practice of electing ancient sages as spokespersons, the origin of each school is very clear.

For example, Confucianism originated from Situ officials, Taoism originated from historians, Legalism originated from Li officials, famous schools originated from ritual officials, Mohism originated from Qing temple guards, Zonghengjia originated from personal officials, miscellaneous schools originated from councilors, and peasants originated from officials. Since the official of the farm...

It is not difficult to see that the origins of these schools have a remarkable feature: they basically all originated from officials.

When you become an official, there will be differences.

So is Confucianism!

After Confucius, Confucianism was divided into eight lines: Confucianism of the Zizhang family, Confucianism of the Zisi family, Confucianism of the Yan family, Confucianism of the Meng family, Confucianism of the Qidiao family, Confucianism of the Zhongliang family, Confucianism of the Sun family, and Confucianism of the Lezheng family.

The Confucianism of the Lezheng family has been lost, and even the origin is unclear. It may be a disciple of Mencius or Zeng Zi.

The remaining seven lines, while following the meaning of Confucius, can also have a focus.

For example, "Zi Zhang's Confucianism" emphasizes that "a scholar sees danger and is fatal, and sees justice", "loves and tolerates the public, and is strict and lenient." It is now the head of Confucianism, and Fu Nian, the head of Xiaoshengxian Zhuang, belongs to this line.

"Zisi 17 Confucianism" emphasizes "sincerity" and "moderation" in behavior. Later, under the influence of this school of thought, the "Gongyang School" was born, which is the school that is now open to South Korea.

"Yan's Confucianism" emphasizes spiritual cultivation and fasting of the mind. Yan Lu, the second master of Xiaoshengxianzhuang, is of this department, practicing the "sit and forget" mental method.

"Meng's Confucianism" is Meng Ke's lineage, emphasizing "human nature is good" and "benevolent government is kingly".

"The Confucianism of the Qi Diao Clan" advocated that "human nature is good and evil", and he is brave and heroic, which is looked down upon by other Confucians.

"Confucianism of the Zhongliang family" advocated "changing traditions and customs", and Qu Yuan belonged to this line.

As for the "Confucianism of the Sun family", it is naturally Xunzi's lineage, which advocates "separation of heaven and man", "controls the destiny and uses it", believes that "human nature is evil, and those who are good are false", and "study to the end". use".

Whether it is "Zi Zhang's Confucianism", "Zisi's Confucianism", "Qi Diao's Confucianism", they are all "low Confucianism" in Xunzi's mouth!

……

Zhang Kaidi belongs to the "Gongyang School", but he is also a "Confucian of Zisi". Whether it is a person or an administration, he is inclined to the "moderate" way.

But Han Fei and Wei Zhuang were both radicals.

After getting rid of Ji Wuye, Han Fei and Wei Zhuang began to try to reform in South Korea, killing many people.

When Shang Yang reformed in Qin State, it took 20 years to achieve success. Han Fei knew that South Korea did not have 20 years, or even ten years.

He wanted to condense the achievements of 20 years into a few years, and his methods were naturally radical.

What Han Fei and Wei Zhuang did was not supported by Zhang Kaidi.

But it should be just "not supporting", and Zhang Liang is easing it, so it won't come to the current situation.

This is where Gao Jing was puzzled.

"It's King Han."

Zi Nu reassured Gao Jing and said: "Han Fei's reform has great resistance, but with the help of Wei Zhuang and Zhang Liang, he can still continue to carry it out, but King Han is also worried that Han Fei will threaten him. status……"

Gao Jing was speechless.

Being able to continue to carry out reforms despite huge resistance showed that Han Fei's strength had reached a certain level.

But no matter how strong his strength was, he was still not as strong as the original Ji Wuye.

It was nothing more than Ji Wuye's lack of royal blood, and Han Wang believed that Ji Wuye could not threaten his throne.

But Han Fei is different. He is the ninth son of the orthodox Han royal family and can inherit the throne!

Gao Jing sighed, and said, "I'm afraid that "Fashion Banshee" also put in a lot of effort."

"That's exactly what Mr. said!"

It was Zhang Liang who spoke, and when he heard the news of Gao Jing's arrival, he rushed over in a hurry, entered the door and saluted Gao Jing: "Zhang Liang has seen Mr.

Gao Jing waved his hand and said, "Don't be too formal, tell me what Zhang Xiangguo thinks."
