058 Xun Qing
Master Xun first affirmed, "The King of Qin is indeed powerful. As far as Qixiong is concerned, the people of Qin are already considered stable."
Then he denied, "Of course, if Qin Fa can be less cold and the military service can be relaxed appropriately, that would be really great."
Finally, there is "dissatisfaction", "The King of Qin seems to be dissatisfied with my etiquette, and it can only be used to lay the foundation!"
It is a moral etiquette that breaks out of the shackles of Confucianism and opens up a new way for Confucianism. It is a masterpiece of humanistic etiquette that Xun Fuzi combined with Taoism, Mohism, famous schools, Legalism and other outstanding scholars in the world.
The most proud achievement, Zhao Zheng even regarded it as a Dharma Confucianism, but it could only be used as the basis of the empire's new policy. Of course Master Xun was not satisfied.
Zhao Zheng, however, did not answer directly. Instead, he disagreed and said, "The laws of heaven are consistent, and they will not survive for Yao, nor will they perish for Jie."
The natural movement of heaven and earth has its own laws, which will not be changed by the sages of Yao, Shun, and Yu, or the tyranny of Jie, the last king of the Xia Dynasty.
Zhao Zheng admires the ancients for being able to sum up this point. "Master Xun seems to believe that heaven returns to heaven and humans return to humans. Is it true that heaven and man are inseparable from each other?"
Master Xun nodded slightly and said: "The good or bad luck of managing chaos does not depend on heaven, but on people.
The King of Qin is a king, and he should not be superstitious about the authority of heaven. Praising the gift of heaven is just a sign of incompetence."
Zhao Zheng "shuddered" and understood, "Even the 'heaven' represented by the 'laws of nature' must be used by humans.
Taught."
Master Xun put on his beard and smiled, and just as a boy was about to appear to be taught, Zhao Zheng said again: "Confucius said that one must kill oneself to become a benevolent person, and Mencius said that one should sacrifice one's life for righteousness.
Mencius believed that in the beginning, human nature was inherently good.
However, Master Xun’s view is exactly the opposite, saying that human nature is evil.”
Zhao Zheng's words have scratched the itch of Master Xunzi. "Xunzi" can be said to be the earliest treatise in the field of education. Master Xun's combat effectiveness in this regard can be said to be top-notch among Confucianists.
"At the beginning of man's life, his nature is evil."
"Human nature, that is, human nature, is evil.
Just like when a person is hungry, he wants to eat; if he feels cold, he wants to stay warm.
These are human nature’s needs and desires from the outside world, and these conflict with morality and etiquette.
A ration, if you eat too much, the next person will not have anything to eat;
It’s freezing cold, if you wear more cotton-padded clothes, others will lose warmth.
People will pursue interests and be lustful...Mu Shaoai and so on. If we start from human nature, these are factors that lead to social chaos, so human nature is inherently evil, not inherently good.
Human nature is evil, and the good ones are fake!"
There is reason and evidence, and Zhao Zheng is a little speechless, but Zhao Zheng's goal has been achieved.
"Wonderful, the difference between a gentleman and a villain was clearly analyzed by Master Xun.
Master Xun believed that the acquired environment and experience play a decisive role in the transformation of human nature, and only through people's subjective efforts can people's malignant transformation be transformed.
And knowledge, reading, and education are the most effective ways, right?"
Master Xun failed to detect the contradiction in Zhao Zheng's words and nodded slightly, "Anything that is good and upward has value and is the result of hard work. This is the process of turning from evil to good."
I have caught your little tail. Zhao Zheng clapped his hands and said: "But Master Xun also said that nature has its own rules. Comparing the two, isn't this a 'double standard'!"
Master Xun did not meet Zhao Zheng's "unreasonable troubles", but just talked and said: "It is a pity that the King of Qin does not go to the famous family."
Zhao Zheng shrugged, and then returned to the original question, saying: "So, Master Xun is interested in using the Nanyang New Deal as a pilot and using Xunfuzi's Legalism and Confucianism as the foundation of governance."
Without giving Master Xun a chance to refuse, Zhao Zheng added: "I know that Master Xun may look down on this small Nanyang County.
But if you don’t plan for the overall situation, you can’t plan for a corner. If you don’t plan for the whole life, you can’t plan for a temporary period.
If the government is well-connected and people are harmonious, then it is unlikely that Legalism and Confucianism will be included as the governing foundation of the empire in the future."
Having said this, Zhao Zheng's lips curled up slightly and he said proudly: "If you're not in a hurry, Master Xun can get familiar with Nanyang County first and think about it carefully before talking."
Unexpectedly, Master Xun nodded directly and said: "The King of Qin made an appointment with me with a bet, so I also have an appointment. If the King of Qin agrees, then I will sell this old bone to the State of Qin."
Zhao Zheng solemnly said: "Please tell me."
However, Master Xun emphasized the tone of a certain word and emphasized: "It is not difficult to understand politics and people, but when the 'empire' is formed, I have to match it."
Master Xun was asking for an official position, and Zhao Zheng agreed immediately, "No problem, then Master Xun is welcome to join the Qin people."
"There is a distinction between high and low. King Qin can just call me Xun Qing."
I forgot to mention that Master Xun’s name is Kuang, whose character is Qing, not Qing who loves Qing.
But with the big boss Xun Fuzi in charge, the overall situation of Nanyang's New Deal became smoother immediately, with the top and bottom results taking effect, and it was full of enthusiasm.
The main reason is that Xunfuzi's theory-supported example of Confucianism and Confucianism is still on top of a high house and the people of Nanyang also support it.
Now that soldiers who have been influenced by the thoughts of the Huben Army are responsible for rectifying the Fa, any force that obstructs the New Deal will be like a sick cat or a paper tiger, vulnerable to a blow.
Seeing that everything had "settled", Zhao Zheng was ready to return with a great reputation and take office ahead of schedule.
It is conceivable that the road back to Qin will not be peaceful, at least there will be a war.
After all, after Zhao Zheng returned to Qin, he would definitely overthrow Lu Buwei, who ordered Luo Wang to assassinate the King of Qin, and Lu Buwei would not be able to sit back and wait for death.
It seems that after the fall of Lu Buwei, the vacated position of prime minister will be vacant for a while. After all, it is not Li Si's turn anyway. The second and fifth sons of Changping Jun who have not yet exposed their characteristics are more promising than him.
And how could Zhao Zheng allow Lord Changping to take the throne? No matter how powerful the Chu clan was, it could still be greater than Zheng Ge, who had the merit of single-handedly surrendering the country.
Speaking of seals, Zhao Zheng remembered that at this time, there was a big treasure waiting for Brother Zheng to cut off his beard in advance.
Heshibi.
Priceless, priceless treasure!
The Heshibi of the Qin Dynasty was lost in the hands of the four princes of the Warring States Period after the completion of the wall and its return to Zhao.
However, Zhao Zheng knew that there was one person who knew, Ji Wuye.
Ji Wuye is also ambitious. He has been pursuing Heshibi for a long time, and sent Yingge, the female leader of Bainiao, to other countries to perform interception missions.
Zhao Zheng had no intention of meeting Ji Wuye. He was first crippled by the net, and then broke up with Bai Yifei. This man, who is known as the strongest general that Korea has not seen in a century, is not worthy of Zhao Zheng's high regard.
Zhao Zhengchong stood aside and Wei Zhuang, who was acting as the "door god" again, said: "I'll give you a task, He Shibi, are you interested?"
