Chapter 16: The Master Father Steals the Book


The two great sages of Confucianism are Confucius, who advocates benevolence, and Mencius, who advocates righteousness.

Therefore, the central idea of ​​Confucianism is benevolence and righteousness.

Benevolence, justice and morality, poetry, etiquette and music.

It can be said that Confucian scholars behave like gentlemen in front of the world.

All of them are gentle and elegant, with profound connotations.

There are hundreds of schools of thought in the pre-Qin period, each of which has its own characteristics and is easy to distinguish.

But with the demise of a dynasty and the rise of new dynasties, the schools of thought will also change.

The once pure culture gradually disappears and becomes full of interests.

At the end of the day, it’s all about legacy.

During the pre-Qin period, Confucianism was disliked by the First Emperor, so many Confucian scholars were killed and even many Confucian classics were burned.

The Analects of Confucius and the like that were circulated in later generations were all compiled and compiled by Confucian descendants.

Because they have experienced indelible pain, Confucianism has changed.

They want to have power and hope to gain the power to support the king, so that they will not be tolerated by the rulers like in the pre-Qin period.

When the great ancestor Liu Bang was conquering the world, Confucianism was one of his helpers, but Confucianism was of little help to the great ancestor on the battlefield.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Emperor Gaozu believed in Taoism, so his later rule was so gentle, governed by inaction, and cultivated one's health, which lasted until the reign of Emperor Jing.

But after the Taoists helped Emperor Gaozu pacify the world, they disappeared.

Therefore, the influence of Confucianism still exists, but it has diminished over time.

Every emperor does not necessarily respect Confucian culture.

Especially during the period of Emperor Jing, Emperor Jing yearned for the Taoist techniques of Huang and Lao in the hope of immortality, so Confucianism was chosen to be forgotten.

But Confucianism also took action, that is, to influence the next emperor, Prince Liu Rong.

It's a pity that Liu Ronggui was the prince, but he didn't have the emperor's life.

He was deposed because of his woman, and Liu Che came from behind.

Because of this, Confucianism was doomed to be miserable.

One wrong choice caused Confucianism to be directly thrown into the cold palace.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty admired the loyalty to the emperor in Confucianism.

He implemented Confucianism to govern the country internally and used military tactics to stabilize the country externally.

However, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was not very powerful, and he still had a grudge against Confucianism, so he would keep Confucianism in his own hands.

Only in this way will your rule be stable.

Therefore, it takes time to boil the frog in warm water and slowly erode the power of Confucianism and appropriate it for your own use.

For this reason, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deployed many back-ups.

First, use Confucianism to ridicule hundreds of schools of thought, so that the power of Confucianism can be dealt a blow, so that we can clean up the mess.

What he needs is Confucianism, not a group of people loyal to Confucianism.

As a subject under his rule, he could only be loyal to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the end.

Time flies, and it’s the third year of Yuanguang in a blink of an eye.

This year, Chu Tianshu did not fully master the fourth level of skills.

If he wanted to convert the Mohist true energy into the Confucian literary spirit, he would need a lot of knowledge, but Chu Tianshu did not have this knowledge.

Now only one-tenth can be converted, and this is the result of hard thinking.

In order to enable himself to complete this important practice, Chu Tianshu began to practice calligraphy every day, hoping that it would be helpful to him.

Winter passes and spring comes, spring passes and summer solstice comes.

Summer is a rainy season.

It was in the summer of this year that the Yellow River burst.

As a result, floods occurred in areas on both sides of the Yellow River.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent 100,000 soldiers to rescue and prepare to solve this problem.

Unfortunately, no results were achieved, but the lives of many soldiers were lost.

Moreover, this year, natural disasters or unexplained strange phenomena occurred everywhere in the Han Dynasty.

It immediately caused panic among countless ordinary people.

So Dong Zhongshu felt that this was an opportunity for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to really pay attention to Confucianism.

So he wrote quickly and began to write about the insights of heaven and man, and the divine right of kings, in order to promote Confucianism, and to make Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty pay attention to Confucianism, promote benevolent government, and not be like Qin Shihuang who was heavily militarized, otherwise God would sense it, and for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty The rule is bad.

Since there were a lot of things to write and they had to withstand scrutiny, Dong Zhongshu stayed behind closed doors and stayed in the Imperial Palace.

But even so, the weak schools of thought continued to suppress or annex and exterminate them.

Dong Zhongshu's performance attracted the attention of many people, so people continued to go deep into the Taixue Holy Mansion to find out more.

It is a pity that although Taixue Shengfu is a group of Confucian scholars, the combat effectiveness of Confucian scholars is not weak, especially as long as the more knowledge, the stronger the buff status.

They are not scholars who are powerless.

Those who found out what happened all disappeared into the Taixue Holy Mansion.

Gradually, more and more people are curious.

Therefore, Dong Zhongshu could not calm down and write his masterpiece.

I have been writing intermittently and will finally finish it at the end of the year.

Just when Dong Zhongshu was about to read it through to see if there were any corrections or additions, an uninvited guest came uninvited.

The person who came was none other than Master Fu Yan.

Dong Zhongshu knew very well about Master Fu Yan.

This man was now a middle-level official.

Although his official position was not as good as that of the three princes, his status was among the nine ministers.

Zhufu Yan was very much used by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, especially for his idea of ​​unification.

Later, he raised the dangers of the kingdom's enfeoffment, and asked Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to issue an order of favor.

In recent years, the kingdom's power has become smaller and smaller. , and even caused civil strife among the children of the kingdom.

Therefore, after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty quelled the civil strife, he restored all the enfeoffed lands to the state.

It's a pity that Zhu Fuyan doesn't like Confucian people very much.

Dong Zhongshu understands this, and the two of them don't have much interaction on weekdays.

In particular, Zhu Fuyan was also the political talker in the court.

Strategists were very expert in arranging troops and formations, so they were highly used by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Moreover, all of them were eloquent and eloquent.

Although I don't have a good impression of Master Fu Yan, I still have to take the initiative to receive him.

The visitor is a guest, and Confucianism cannot weaken the etiquette.

In the living room, the master's father drank tea and waited quietly.

The master's father is an ordinary-looking middle-aged man.

Although his hair is still black as a whole, his temples are already white.

Not long after, Dong Zhongshu arrived.

"I wonder what's going on with your arrival?"

Dong Zhongshu asked doubtfully, his tone neither calm nor calm.

The master put down his teacup, smiled slightly and said: "Haha, this is my first time to come in and take a look at Taixue Holy Mansion.

I am very envious of such a large-scale building."

After saying that, the master father Yan stood up and looked at the four characters "righteousness" hanging on the beam in the living room. .

Hearing this, Dong Zhongshu was very confused and frowned.

He felt that Master Yan's arrival must have a purpose, otherwise he wouldn't have come to see him just now.

It has been four years since the Taixue Holy Palace was established.

And it is located right next to Chang'an City.

If you want to come and have a look, Dong Zhongshu will not stop him.

But someone who had never come in the past four years came.

Apart from ulterior motives, Dong Zhongshu couldn't think of any other reason.

Seeing Dong Zhongshu's displeased look, Master Fu Yan immediately laughed and said: "Haha, don't you welcome me?

Then I'll take my leave and don't need to send you off."

After saying that, he left the living room.

Only the stunned Dong Zhongshu was left.

"It's really strange, why do I have a bad feeling in my heart?"

As soon as he said this, Dong Zhongshu's face changed.

After saying "It's not good to be sick", there was a feeling of wind under his feet, and he turned into an afterimage and ran towards his residence.

As soon as I returned to my residence, I saw that the documents originally placed on the case were missing.

"It must be you, Master Fuyan," Dong Zhongshu said through gritted teeth.

On the other side, a masked man in black clothes appeared in front of Master Yan.

He was a very strange person, as if he appeared suddenly.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, I've already finished the work."

The masked man said respectfully, then presented a scroll of bamboo slips.

This is the divine inspiration written by Dong Zhongshu, a document of divine right to kingship.

After taking the bamboo slips, Master Fuyan was very satisfied.

"Dong Zhongshu, although we have no grievances, you Confucian people once humiliated me and looked down on me.

Now it's time for my master father Yan to take revenge.

Haha" After saying that, master father Yan left.

The masked man in black disappeared into the air instantly, as if he was invisible.
