Chapter 2078: Choose by the people, compete with the talented
Half a month later, in the Taihang Mountains.
Somewhere on a hillside.
In a long shed.
Tables, chairs and benches are available.
Xun Yu, Xun Chen, Xun You, and Cui Cheng were patiently listening to the lecture.
What surprised them was that there was "Yilong" who was also listening to the class in front.
The whole team is Hua Xin, Bing Yuan and Guan Ning.
People at that time collectively called it "One Dragon", among which Hua Xin was the dragon's head, Bingyuan was the dragon's belly, and Guan Ning was the dragon's tail.
Among them, Guan Ning listened the most seriously, Hua Xin listened the most excitedly, his eyes shining, and Bing Yuan was the calmest.
"The affairs of the world are governed by the people of the world. The people of the world are governed by the people of the world."
"Everyone is born and nourished, and they are all the same."
Wen Rensheng began to lecture at this time. , talking about ideas and overall structure.
"If the king is not noble, the people are not humble, and the king and the people are the same. If the king is not virtuous, the people can replace him. If the king is not virtuous, the people can replace him."
Yes, now I hear people Sheng directly revealed the taste of rebellion in his lectures.
Anyway, the momentum has been established, and now is the time to clear up the source.
This is what is called distinguishing the people who support you.
We can no longer let gangsters hang around and scatter our strength.
Xun You was greatly moved when he heard this.
This sounds rebellious, but it suits him very well.
Because there was a tradition of changing emperors in the Han Dynasty.
The most famous one is of course Huo Guang’s change of emperor.
The newly ascended emperor Liu He was greedy for pleasure and did not do his job properly. He was deposed after only 20 days in office.
Then it was replaced by Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty. History proved that this time the change was right, and Emperor Xuan was very accomplished.
Of course Huo Guang was also unlucky. After his death, his whole family was killed...
This means that you have replaced a good emperor for the people of the world, but your own behavior is not acceptable to the good emperor.
At this time, Xun Yu immediately raised his hand.
Wen Rensheng smiled and said, "Get up and speak."
"Thank you Master Zhao. If the emperor is unworthy, his ministers should advise him. If the emperor is unworthy, his ministers should teach him; A minister should not change a king, and using a minister to offend the king is a violation of dignity and treason," Xun Yu said firmly.
Xun You became anxious when he heard this. This uncle really dared to speak.
This is on someone else's territory.
You’ve made it clear that the drivers are going to rebel, don’t you know what it means to be a gentleman and adapt to circumstances?
He wanted to speak, but he saw Ren Sheng stretched out his hand and asked, "Do you have any heirs?"
When Xun You heard this, his heart became cold and he was finished.
This uncle is going to be killed.
I asked the heirs, if there is any, they can start killing.
"It doesn't exist yet." Xun Yu said seriously.
Wen Rensheng nodded, Xun Yu’s first son would not be born until 193.
“Do all the living beings here have any heirs?”
“Master, I do.”
"Me too."
For a while, more than half of the people raised their hands.
"Very good, if your heirs are unworthy and unworthy, how can you teach them to change them?" Wen Rensheng asked again.
Someone stood up and said: "If you are unworthy, you will be punished with a stick, and if you are virtuous, you will be rewarded with honey."
"Is there anyone else?" Wen Rensheng asked.
"Submit it with reason." At this time, a gentle student stood up and said.
"What if he refuses to change despite repeated admonitions?" Wen Rensheng asked again.
"This can only be taught with painstaking efforts, taking them into the fields, experiencing the sufferings of the people, and letting them understand how hard it is to be a father." The student thought for a moment and said.
"Very good, very good." Wen Rensheng nodded.
Then he said to Xun Yu: "Do you understand?"
Xun Yu's IQ certainly understood.
The Taihang Mountain people say that what you said is all false. If you want to make a person good and wise, the most practical way is to teach children.
But when you treat the emperor as a child to teach, you have violated the superiority and inferiority.
Because I am the Lord of Heaven and Earth and my teacher, and you are before me.
So the emperor is not good at teaching.
If your nature is already fixed, it will never be changed by the advice of your ministers.
This is actually the case.
There were many emperors who behaved wildly, and how many of them were remonstrated?
Of course, some emperors followed the advice of their ministers completely, but found out that the ministers were cheating on them. The ministers themselves re-enabled eunuchs and factory guards, completely distrusting their ministers.
"But if we do this, there will be no distinction between superior and inferior, and the order will not be clear, and the world will be in chaos?" Xun Yu asked again.
"What about the current world?"
"The current chaos in the world is due to the lack of distinction between superior and inferior..." Xun Yu stopped at this point.
He knew the reason very well. As long as the people had enough food and clothing, they were not afraid of kowtowing or saluting.
It is not just because of the annexation of land by the powerful, but the imperial court has also increased its expropriation, selling off officials and conferring titles, eunuchs causing rebellion...
These problems can be said to be those who have intelligence exceeding 90 points in the attributes of the Three Kingdoms. , can all be seen.
Because restraining powerful mergers has always been a consistent measure of the imperial court.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once forcibly relocated large numbers of landlords and wealthy households. One of the effects was that their local land became vacant and could only be given to the common people.
Unfortunately, this must be opposed by the powerful instinct of the scholars.
So how to solve this problem has always been a top problem that troubles smart people.
If the powerful cannot be restrained, the annexation of land cannot be stopped. If the annexation of land is not stopped, the people will starve to death sooner or later.
At this time, no matter how superior or inferior you are, no matter how much education or intimidation you usually give, it is impossible to intimidate anyone.
Because the premise of deterrence is that the person is still alive and his family is still alive.
Now the whole family can no longer survive, no matter what kind of family you are, what saints you say, it is useless.
"It seems that you have understood that the reason for the chaos in the world is not that there is no distinction between superiors and inferiors, but that the superiors rely on their strength to deprive the inferiors of their land. That's why I say that the people can choose their ruler, but only Only by doing this can the superiors be afraid and prevent the superiors from annexing the land. In ancient times, the three emperors and the five emperors only had a prosperous age if they had wise men as their kings. "
Here is Wen Rensheng being deceived again.
Don’t you say that the three emperors of ancient times were the wisest among wise rulers?
Just pull them out to endorse.
Cao Pi also used these three people to endorse his usurpation of the throne.
"This, the world is so big, who is a virtuous person? There is no standard for virtuous people. As a result, the inheritance will be chaotic. There will be civil strife in every inheritance, and there will be so many casualties among the people?" Xun Yu said again.
“In today’s world, how many people are killed or injured?”
When Wen Rensheng said this, he stood up directly, "As far as I have seen before, in the land of Jiuzhou, there are white bones exposed in the wild, and there are no roosters crowing for thousands of miles. There are hundreds of people who have left one thing, and the thought of it will break people's hearts."< br>
I directly used Cao Cao’s poem "Hao Li Xing".
"Sir, what you said is correct, but what do you mean, sir, can this situation be avoided? You must know that even a virtuous king cannot avoid land annexation, and as long as land continues to be annexed, sooner or later there will be The people have nothing to eat," Xun Yu continued.
“People don’t have land to cultivate, so they can farm outside. There is countless land outside. What a wise king does is to constantly migrate excess people and distribute them in all directions. And this is definitely not something that a clan with one surname can do. Because it is too bitter and tiring, and we have to worry about the people who go out and cannot control it. They will grow their power overseas and come back to seize the throne of emperor."
"As long as the emperor's position is not inherited from the family, the wise will have a share. , If you are not a wise man, you will not worry about this problem. If you are a wise man, you can come back and become a king."
Wen Rensheng smiled.
Everyone was shocked, shocked and surprised.
Wen Rensheng’s thoughts are simply like the Dragon Soaring Universe, limitless. But they felt very happy and good.
In the era of the Three Kingdoms, there were many crazy people and crazy ideas.
There are many kinds of ideas.
Confucianism was impacted.
Legalism is very popular.
Taoist thought is full of vitality.
Metaphysics also emerged.
Of course many are immature.
Cao Cao stands out because he is eclectic.
Using the name of punishment and relying on Confucian nobles like Xun Yu, it can also absorb the Yellow Turbans of Taoism.
This is far from being comparable to the dominance of Confucianism after the confinement of later generations.
It is just other ideas that cannot perfect themselves, cannot form an effective governance system, and cannot continuously meet the needs of governance, taxation, military and food collection.
In the end, they were defeated one by one by the Confucians.
The Confucian etiquette, respecting superiors and inferiors, allows people to spontaneously maintain order at the lowest cost, facilitates the collection of taxes, and reduces the difficulty of rule for emperors and scholar-bureaucrats. It naturally has great vitality and continues to And never stop.
When will it be over?
Only those at the bottom who are so oppressed by etiquette that they can no longer survive will be finished.
The public's bones were trampled down in the sky street, and the inner storehouse was burned into beautiful ashes.
Once there is a way to survive, he will take the initiative to pick it up.
Wen Rensheng now wants to establish a new system, a new system of taxation and conscription, to replace the former.
With "everyone is equal and the people choose the ruler" as the upper structure, education is widely opened, a large number of talents in various categories are cultivated, and examinations are selected to fill the managers in the ruling system.
Then the enlightened people will be used to restrict the managers in reverse to achieve relative balance.
Finally, we use continuous external development, foreign trade, and internal commercial exchanges to dilute the contradictions and allow the people to survive.
Anyway, Xun Yu understood this after listening to the class for half a month.
Others also understood.
But how many of these resourceful people with IQs above 90 points agree and how many oppose it?
Xun Yu thought hard and felt that this was completely contrary to what he had learned.
But it can justify itself and make sense.
He really couldn't find anything to mess with, so he could only think hard about the loopholes in the other party's ideological system.
"Okay, today's lesson is up to here. Students, when you go back, teach it to Class 2, and you can discuss it with each other."
"get out of class is over, students. Goodbye. "
"Goodbye, teacher."
Everyone stood up.
In any case, their respect for their teachers comes from the bottom of their hearts.
In any case, Wen Rensheng's method has been successfully implemented in the Taihang Mountains.
And most people can have enough food and clothing. This is the world of great harmony and Taoyuan hometown that conscientious scholars can only hope for.
…………
Back at the temporary building, Xun Yu was still thinking hard.
Xun You sighed and said, "Uncle, don't bother yourself anymore. I think Master Zhao's set of Confucian classics is a gift from heaven. It is complete and can help the world and save the people. It is really rare."
"I also understand. , but it always feels like it’s too subversive of what I’ve learned in my life.” Xun Yu sighed.
"What you have learned in your life cannot save the world, nor can it prevent the people from falling into fire and water in a few hundred years. Why not abandon it?" Guan Ning said from the side.
He is a person who is serious about studying and is willing to give up everything in order to study.
"Yes, if you think about it carefully, if according to what Master Zhao said, we ourselves are extremely sage, wouldn't the people also choose us as kings?" Hua Xin said excitedly.
Guan Ning frowned slightly.
Xun Yu scolded: "Your family has been receiving the salary of the Han Dynasty for generations, how can you say this..."
"Wait a minute, Master Zhao has long said that the salary is the people's salary. The people have the right to give their salaries to whom. My family has been receiving salaries from the Han Dynasty for generations, but from the salaries of the people. Naturally, I have to do things for the people. If I can do it to the extreme, what can I do if I am the king? "Hua Xin said directly. Chi Nuonuo said.
Everyone was speechless.
But according to Master Zhao, this is really the case.
Xun You looked at Hua Xin and thought to himself, "Everyone says that you, Hua Xin, are the leader, but I don't accept it."
If I am wiser than you, can’t I be a king?
"Wait a minute, Master Zhao didn't say who is the most wise before?" Xun Yu said again.
"Does this need to be said? Of course it is up to the people to decide. Whoever can make the people eat better, wear better, and live better will be the virtuous one." Hua Xin is truly worthy of being the leader. Known as, grasp the key point at once.
Xun Yu retorted casually: "The people are ignorant and easily deceived by villains."
"If the people are ignorant, let them know it."
"The Master said, the people can be led to it, but they cannot be made to know it; Lord Shang also said that only when the people are weak and ignorant can they be driven. If the people know too much, they will not be able to do anything. Drive." Xun Yu couldn't help but said.
“Hahaha, you have really shown your true nature, Xun Yu, you are a villain. You only want to drive the people, you only want to satisfy the powerful people of one family, but you don’t care about all the people in the world. I am ashamed to be with you. !" After Hua Xin finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the building.
“You!” Xun Yu almost vomited blood after being scolded.
Guan Ning stepped forward and patted him: "He was just angry for a moment, there is no need to take it seriously."
The person who understands Hua Xin best is naturally Guan Ning.
He understood that his companion was actually just trying to gain fame and reputation, and deliberately got close to the Taihang Mountain people.
In his heart, he is most passionate about power and wealth. How can he truly serve the people?
This is just a cover-up.
It’s just that he still has to pay attention to friendship after all, so he can’t expose it directly.
Besides, Hua Xin didn't say anything wrong. If he exposed it, it would be slander.
Xun Yu sighed. In fact, these two sentences are indeed very problematic.
And these words of Shang Jun are also very criticized.
It was only in his impatience that he showed his flaws.
In short, he just feels that people are still very ignorant and can easily be taken advantage of.
The Taihang Mountain people's tactics will only cause chaos in the world and will never stabilize.
It is better to determine the superiority and inferiority, and it can still be stable for hundreds of years.
If we use the Taihang Mountain people’s tactics, we might end up in chaos once every ten years.
Because everyone will feel that they are wiser.
Just like my nephew Xun You.
He knew that the other party was very ambitious.
Want to control the emperor.
Everyone is usually together, and everyone knows how many hairs there are on their tails.
After all, there are some things that you can’t help but say in private.
So he said directly: "In this case, if everyone competes for the title of wise man, wouldn't that mean there will be no peace every day?"
Xun You retorted: "In this case, don't you have to consider the people every day? Will you still have the hedonistic mood of your majesty today?"
Xun Yu had nothing to say.
Yes, your Majesty is not stupid now, he is very smart. In order to restrain the powerful scholars, he also opened up a lot of restrictions at the beginning, which was to prevent the scholars from occupying the court.
But in order to do this, eunuchs were appointed.
In order to gain favor, the eunuchs did what they wanted.
Slowly becoming more and more lazy, becoming more and more hedonistic, doing whatever it takes for pleasure.
Selling an official position and getting a title is a real thing.
After all, this is not a good thing, right?
It will only make officials think about how to plunder the people and how to split with the powerful when they first take office.
