Chapter 1764 Strange Anecdote
After much deliberation, Li Chun finally handed the pen into the hands of a group of undersea octopuses.
It also binds its owner with a binding talisman, which is an octopus. When one octopus dies, it will fly to the next one.
The Spring and Autumn Pen, as long as it is waved, will automatically write the truth, and giant characters will appear in the sky for people to see.
The octopuses will definitely not modify it intentionally.
They have strong vitality, and so much fishing has not made them extinct. Instead, they are spread all over the ocean.
The reason is that they have the habit of drilling into holes when they see them, and can hide in the crevices of seafloor rocks, thus avoiding the most terrifying threat of the "extreme filter membrane" in the future.
Although fishermen used earthen jars to catch them in large numbers two thousand years ago, they still cannot be exterminated.
Crock pots are far from comparable to Juehu filter membranes.
"Sad, human justice must be presided over by an octopus." Huang Ergou shook his head when he saw this scene.
Li Chun was too lazy to explain much to him and just looked up at the sky.
Not long after, five big characters floated from the sky - "Death of Marquis Xihuan".
The following is a piece of history.
Xi Huanhou was a great general of this dynasty. He was loyal and loved the people. He lived a simple life. He gave all the extra land to the people and never gathered it. Finally, he died of an illness for no apparent reason one night at the age of forty-two. .
The royal funeral was grand, and he was buried with the courtesy of a duke. The prince came to express his condolences.
Well, it was the seventy-year-old prince who died just a few years ago.
The great eunuch Gu En said: "Huan Hou, it's time to drink the medicine. This is a gift from the Holy One, you can't refuse it."
"Oh, the rabbit died and the dog was cooked, and the bird lost its bow. "Zang, it's the same in ancient times and now. I won't drink. I want to die, and I want to die clearly and openly, like Yue Wumu." said Huan Hou.
"Oh, when you become the King of Yue, do you want the emperor to fail to do the job? You are unfaithful. If you are unfaithful, you should die! Come and serve Huan Hou to drink medicine. You don't want to be dignified, Zajia I’ll help you look good!”
Huan Hou died.
Then came the "Death of the Prince", "Northwest Banknote Case", "Southeast Grain Case", "Southwestern Mountain Rebellion"...
One after another, they were all skipped in the imperial palace newspaper. , but another sensational news.
“Damn, it’s dark, there’s nothing that’s not dark.” Huang Ergou said bitterly.
"It's useless. What's the use of just breaking the news?" Su Xiaodan dismissed it.
She has lived in the palace for these days, and she understands very well that people at the bottom just muddle along, letting others come forward while she follows behind to take advantage of it.
Unless they are so hungry that they cannot walk, they will rise up in large areas to resist. Freezing to death, beating to death, and crushing to death will not stop large groups of people from resisting.
“Take a look and then talk.”
After the great things were written, something new appeared in the sky.
"Jin's Secret Collection":
The great Confucian Jin Huaicheng said to his eldest son: "There have been great Confucians in my family for generations, and they have learned the roots of Confucianism and Taoism. The roots of Confucianism and Taoism lie in Kneel.”
"Kneel to heaven, kneel to the ground, kneel to the emperor, kneel to your parents, kneel to your teachers; kneel to the Tatars, kneel to the southern barbarians, kneel to the western barbarians, kneel to the eastern barbarians, kneel to the northern barbarians..."
His son said: "The front is easy to say. , the latter is completely inconsistent with the theory of righteousness. "
Cheng said: "Those who hold righteousness can only be famous for a while; those who hold kneeling will be passed down from generation to generation. "
His son said: "A person's death may be heavier than Mount Tai, or lighter than a feather. How can a man live in heaven and earth and die in obscurity? I would rather die for the sake of righteousness and gain a temporary reputation and spread it. In future generations, this life will not be wasted. "
The eldest son was beaten to death with a stick that night, and he hated the northwest.
The second son got the true message.
Everything in the world is like this, wouldn’t future generations be sad!
…………
Somewhere in the northwest, in the courtyard of Jin’s ancestral hall.
"It's over, it's over. From now on, our Jin clan will no longer have a great scholar!" The clan leader of the Jin clan hid his face and looked at the sky, crying bitterly.
The other tribesmen also looked at the sky, their faces ashen. "The patriarch is worried. The words in the sky are only temporary. Most of the people are illiterate. Most of the people who are literate are good friends of my family. As long as someone is sent to tell them, ten years later, no one will know about it?" Jin The second prince of the family, but the old god was talking.
"The second great-grandfather said yes, the patriarch does not need to worry."
"Yes, who is cleaner than whom? Those who are literate and reading, who are not all the way? What is really dangerous about kneeling down is that the roots of Confucianism and Taoism that we have spent hundreds of years exploring are being exposed like this, and we will have no advantage in the future!" said another wise man in the clan.
“What I’m talking about is that this sincerity’s survival is at stake.”
"Yes, everyone is kneeling, which means that everyone is not kneeling. When the strongman comes, he will kill everyone who should."
"Oh, it's over, everyone is kneeling, and the first one to kneel is also It’s worthless.”
“Yes, yes.” Everyone in the clan said in unison.
"Hurry up and talk to the other families, let the family branches spread the word of righteousness, and strive to make the people only know righteousness and not know how to kneel." The wise man in the clan said confidently.
“That’s right, wonderful, wonderful!”
“The theory of righteousness is good and wonderful. The more righteous people there are, the more valuable they are.” . ” the patriarch said at last.
…………
Three years later, the theory of righteousness became popular.
“The heaven and earth have righteous energy, and are mixed and endowed with manifolds. Below are the rivers and mountains, and above are the sun and stars...”
Everyone can recite the righteousness song.
The power of Confucianism and Taoism is deflected.
The theory of kneeling is no longer popular, and fathers, sons, monarchs and ministers have also been defeated.
“If a father is not a father, a son is not a son; if a king is not a king, a minister is not a minister.”
“A son can also be a father, and a minister can also be a king.”
All kinds of treacherous and unethical ideas are circulated among the people, in the streets, restaurants, inns, and hooks...
Especially in the Jiangnan area, strange people are rampant. Men are dressed in colorful clothes, and there are even openly naked people. Lying on the street, proud of the celestial body.
People regard strange talk as beauty.
If you were to be a master honestly, no one would think highly of you and you would be scolded as a sour scholar.
"We shouldn't have an emperor! What is the emperor? He eats countless people's fat and oil every year. How can he eat as much as he can do by himself?" A Confucian scholar cursed.
"Well said, Brother Liu, there shouldn't be an emperor. The world should be ruled by scholars."
"No, there must be an emperor, otherwise, the barbarians on the grasslands and plateau will not recognize him. "
"Yes, only the emperor and his married daughter have status. Once they get married, there will be ten years of peace. This is the role of the emperor."
"In this case, the emperor should be a good one. The Clay Bodhisattva is usually worshiped high and only comes forward when something happens."
"Yes, the Xujun is the best, because the prime minister can be replaced at any time and will not affect too much government affairs. The emperor can be changed once. To bleed.”
Confucian scholars began to discuss the role of the emperor.
This was unimaginable before.
The existence of the emperor, that is, the Son of Heaven, is a matter of course.
Who dares to talk about not having an emperor, or letting the emperor be a puppet?
“The emperor must also be replaced. If the emperor goes against integrity, he must be replaced.”
"Yes, in this way, the world will no longer have to worry about the appearance of faint kings and tyrants. There will only be faint and violent appearances. But if the prime minister can be changed, the world will be able to have long-term peace and stability."
As the Confucian scholars discussed , new theories appeared and became popular in the world.
Surprisingly, the emperor turned a deaf ear to this.
