Because the earthquake came so suddenly, it was necessary to "save people as soon as possible".However, post-disaster reconstruction is a long and difficult process, whether it is the resettlement of the victims or the post-disaster reconstruction requires a large amount of money, Li Lu mentioned this problem when facing reporters, he said that no matter how difficult it is, he must grit his teeth and share the fate with the people in the disaster area to survive this difficulty.Li Lu's words aroused a strong resonance among the British people,Because of Li Lu's many years of sinicization work,The people all agree with the basic concept of the Chinese nation,When the catastrophe came,The British people chose to unite around Li Lu,Go to the difficulties together,A sentence in the newspaper "One side is in trouble, all sides support",Immediately ignited the kind heart of the people。
The people of Britain set off a vigorous donation campaign, up to the princes and nobles, and the wealthy and noble; down to the ordinary people, ordinary people; They have all donated generously, and many touching deeds have emerged.A female textile worker held a flying money with a denomination of one hundred taels of silver in her hand, took the child to the Civil Affairs Department, found the relevant personnel and handed the flying money over, and said, "The babies in the north have no father, Your Majesty has to worry about state affairs, but also has to feed so many orphans, I have nothing to help as a woman, these fifty taels of flying money is a little bit of our mother's heart, please send the money to those who need it on behalf of our mother......"
The staff look at this textile worker, he knows, This woman named Zhou Huiniang died in battle a few years ago and became a martyr, she did not remarry in order to avoid anger for her children, and pulled the baby alone, although she could get a pension for her deceased husband every month, but Zhou Huiniang saved the money, she lived a very simple life, but now this woman took out fifty taels, this is not a small amount of money, this money can be used to buy a small courtyard in broken leaves."
Hui Niang, shouldn't you have taken out all the money, right??"
The staff said in surprise."
Hehehe, I haven't touched the baby's father's pension, this money is the money I saved as a weaver......
I'm a woman, and I don't know any big truths, I just know that Your Majesty is good to us people, and he has problems with the people in the north, and that's all I can do....."
Donations are not only Zhou Huiniang such textile workers, even children are also involved, a little baby named Liu Long of Connecticut Daomen School, his parents died a few years ago, has been relying on the Daomen and the civil affairs department to help go to school, when he heard the news of the earthquake, he donated all the money he had accumulated by picking up garbage in the past few years.He said: "I am an orphan and know the pain of losing my father and mother, and now my friends in the disaster area are more unfortunate than me, and I hope this money can help them return to school as soon as possible." ”Ordinary people are still generous, not to mention those rich businessmen, their money is even more than people imagine, it can be said that Britain, which was already very united, because of an earthquake, has become more united and more cohesive.But when the whole country was working together to relieve the disaster, some people were restless, these people were the diehards of Confucianism, and they thought that the reason why such a tragic earthquake occurred was because Li Lu did not respect Confucius and Mencius, did not cultivate virtue, arrogated the emperor, and used swords and soldiers in vain, which angered the heavens, so he was punished.Several corrupt Confucians even published articles in newspapers, asking Li Lu to be similar to "the East and East of the Guilty Edict", comprehensively revise the British national policy, abolish the pseudo-emperor name they think, etc., which means that it must be according to what our Confucianism says, otherwise you see, God can't stand it, Li Lu, if you listen to our teachings, you are a holy monarch, if you don't listen, you are a tyrant like a ruin, even if you try hard to relieve the disaster, it will not help.Confucianism is very good at talking about earthquakes, and Mr.
Sima's "Historical Records.
Zhou Benji" recorded the Qishan earthquake in the second year of King Youwang of Zhou, according to the old man's record, the then Taishi Bo Yangfu believed, "Zhou will die."
The spirit of heaven and earth does not lose its order; If it goes through the order, the people will also be in turmoil.The sun is subdued and cannot come out, and the yin is forced but cannot be steamed, so there is an earthquake.Today's Sanchuan earthquake is the yang that loses its place and fills the yin. ”He probably meant that this was a sign that the Zhou dynasty was about to fall.The yin and yang qi between heaven and earth is balanced and orderly; If it is chaotic, the yang energy will not be able to come out, and the yin energy will oppress it so that it cannot rise, so there will be an earthquake.Nowadays, the earthquake in the Sanchuan area is because the yang energy is not in place, but is suppressed by the yin energy.King Zhou You is a famous faint monarch in Chinese history, a womanizer, and he made it up to "buy laughter".One of the famous harem beauties in Chinese history, Bao Xi, is his favorite concubine.To what extent does King Zhou You love Bao Xi?
unexpectedly abolished his queen Shen and the crown prince Yijiu, and appointed Bao Xi as the queen, and set up Bao Xi's son Bofu as the crown prince.At that time, Taishi Boyang said that "the Zhou Dynasty is going to be in a big disaster", and attributed the Yin Qi of the Zhou Kingdom to too heavy and the Yang Qi to be weak, which led to the earthquake, which was attributed to the excessive favor and praise of King Zhou You.Later, Confucianism often talked about it, and now after the Nuozhou earthquake, they thought that this was a good opportunity for their Confucianism, and began to smear Li Lu and the British soldiers who fought the earthquake in a different way, just like some unscrupulous public knowledge in later generations.The reason why they asked Li Lu to "condemn himself".That's because Confucianism believes that heaven, earth, and man are one, and that the earth should be rather than moving, and if the earth is "restless" and moving, it means that yin and yang are out of balance, or it is related to the failure of the human monarch, which is a punishment and warning given by God.Therefore, as the king of a country, the emperor must quickly admit his mistakes and take away his sins in order to obtain God's forgiveness, prevent God from sending disasters to the world again, and alleviate the misfortune of the victims.Such a "guilty edict" is not uncommon in history, and the first emperor who issued an edict because of the earthquake was Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty.
Emperor Xuan's Chronicles records that Liu Xun said, "Those who cover disasters are also the rings of heaven and earth."
I inherited the Hongye, Fengzong Temple, entrusted to the people, and failed to live with the masses.It is the earthquake in Beihai, Lang evil, bad ancestral temple, I am very afraid. ”What Liu Xun wants to express is that the earthquake is a warning issued by the gods of heaven and earth, and it is me Liu Xun who has not stabilized the people's livelihood, and I am very afraid now.Obviously, the practice of "sin against oneself" did not directly help in the fight against earthquake relief, but until the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the feudal emperors were willing to do so.Why did they issue the edict of guilt, as a traverser, Li Lu is clear, these edicts seem to be the words of these emperors, but in fact they are the tricks of fooling the so-called heavens and deceiving the people, mainly to appease the emotions of the victims."
These rotten people are restless again, they think they can use the earthquake to blackmail me?
Hmph, I'm sorry, I'm going to tell you, I'm afraid you've miscalculated......"
Li Lu said with a sneer, he thought about it and wrote down the twelve big characters "Heaven is constant, not for Yao, not for death", and then brushed and wrote an easy-to-understand earthquake science article, and finally gave it to Li Songyi, who accompanied him, "Take it to let the newspaper headlines publish my article......"
"Your Majesty, do you want to warn them about these dogs??"
”Seeing that a few rotten Confucians actually wanted to blackmail their Majesty to give some bullshit and sin against themselves, Li Songyi was furious."
Don't care, whether I am guilty or not, the people have rods and scales in their hearts, they ......know best whether I am good or not," Li Lu said proudly, "The dog bites someone, do people still have to bite back??"
”When Li Lu's earthquake science article was published in the newspaper, the British people said that His Majesty was right, this is a natural disaster, not some bullshit punishment, a rotten Confucian saw Li Lu's article, he was furious, "Dusk Jun, you claim to be the emperor in vain, disturb the number of days, this is the punishment of heaven, you don't want to repent, and dare to quibble...."
Before the old guy finished speaking, he was heard by a few retired veterans with a bigger temper, and they were also furious, "Old thing, you dare to blaspheme our Majesty, I'm so tired of it.... .”"
Yes, if it weren't for your age, Lao Tzu would have to teach you how to be a man today....."
Under their leadership, the people, you say a word, I say a word, this rotten Confucian said that he was self-ashamed, he didn't come up in one breath, he was angry to death, because he belittled Li Lu, so his family only secretly collected his body.This Confucianism's encounter is not an isolated case, it can be said that in Li Lu's Britain, the Rotten Confucians have no soil for survival at all.
