Chapter 477

In Yunyao's view, Confucianism has core values ​​but no operational ability, while Legalism has operating ability but no core value.

It is difficult for the Legalists to make everyone accept their operation methods, just like parents wanting to feed their children vegetables, but the children don’t eat them anyway. Parents know that eating vegetables is nutritious, but children don’t know that they only know that vegetables are not as delicious as meat.

Parents can use their children to beat their children at this time, or they can also tell their children how to eat vegetables to grow taller, and they can't grow taller if they don't eat them.

It is natural to have a fight. After all, it is your own child, so what if you want someone else's child? If you go up and have a fight, there will definitely be conflicts. Others will think that you are using the excuse of feeding vegetables to hit people.

Therefore, we can only guide other people's children by following the instructions, saying that eating vegetables will grow taller, but not growing taller if you don't eat them, but children may not listen, and it is also very time-consuming.

Qin treats the Qin people with their own children, and treats the people of the six countries with their children. They cannot use the same thing to do, otherwise they will backfire.

So we need a core value, a contract that can make everyone believe, and Confucianism will eventually be selected.

After Mencius used righteousness to supplement benevolence, he had the basis of destroying relatives for justice. It can be said that he completed the shortcomings of benevolence and nepotism. When it is time to kill, his relatives must be killed. Confucius would never agree with it. Confucius believed that if a father was guilty, his son should give up everything and secretly go abroad to take refuge with his father. He also opposed his son reporting his father and his father reporting his son.

But under Mencius's concept of benevolence and righteousness, he sacrificed his life for righteousness, and later many problems of loyalty and filial piety and filial piety appearing because Confucius and Mencius actually have two sets of values ​​being softened together. If they really encounter the problem of loyalty and filial piety and filial piety, Confucius must have chosen filial piety, and Mencius must have chosen loyalty.

Because Confucius spoke for the hereditary aristocrats, he naturally would not destroy his bloodline. The most important thing to maintain bloodline is filial piety and brotherhood, that is, the relationship between father and son and brother.

Mencius encountered the problem of the Warring States Period, and the rise of landlords to challenge the hereditary aristocracy. Mencius discovered that benevolence is not only unreliable, but also caused everyone to only care about the family and ignore the country. In the past, the aristocracy was the country, but now it is not possible. Landlords have also begun to grow bigger. If everyone only cares about the family, it is a country that is not a country. Therefore, it is necessary to transcend bloodlines and a broader value concept that includes aristocracy and a landlord. It is necessary to make both the aristocracy and the landlord reach a tacit understanding and act under the same rules, so that the country will be stable.

In Mencius' era, righteousness must surpass benevolence. Unfortunately, Mencius did not want to shed blood, so he could not implement benevolence and righteousness.

Yun Yao gave Simei a tutoring lesson, letting them know the difference between the Warring States Period and the Spring and Autumn Period, and there were no spoilers so far. They communicated through secret speech and voice transmission, so no one around them could hear their discussion.

Only after the Four Beauties realized that some chaos will occur in the future. To promote righteousness, one must first revolutionize the fate of benevolence. The emergence of Mencius was Confucius, and this process was destined to bleed.

Unfortunately, Qin State is just bleeding and has not introduced a value that everyone can accept.

"What are values? Is it really that useful?" Nan Zi asked a question.

"Of course it is useful. Values ​​are rules that everyone accepts and can be used to restrain everyone, just like Zhou Li."

"Is it not possible to use it? I heard that there are many Qin methods. Isn't it enough to restrain everyone?" Nan Zi continued to ask.

"Of course, but no matter how complicated the Qin law is, it always makes people think carefully. For example, the Qin law stipulates that theft and robbery are illegal, but there is no provision for fraud. If I go to cheat people, Qin law will have no way to do anything about me, right? By the time the Qin law stipulates that fraud is illegal, I will have already escaped. At this time, a core value is needed. If everyone thinks that it is wrong to obtain money from others through some improper means, then even if Qin law does not stipulate, people around will spontaneously criticize the fraudsters. Do you think so?"

The four beauties all said that they knew the meaning of their core values.

"The Dharma cannot be covered in everything. I think that good others will think bad. The Dharma is like a fence. Because the boundaries are very clear, some people think that it should be more careful, and some people think that it should be less important. Everyone has different cognitions. However, values ​​can be recognized by everyone, such as filial piety, brotherhood, loyalty, righteousness, benevolence, politeness, wisdom and trustworthiness. Although vague but flexible, they can play a guiding role in the general direction." Yun Yao finally concluded.

The law is a clear fence, because it is clearly visible, so everyone can point fingers and express dissatisfaction. But the core values ​​are invisible and intangible, just like an invisible sword that regulates everyone, and at the same time they can also ask others.

Confucius restrained himself and restored etiquette and could only demand himself, which was to pursue moral awareness. When Mencius ruled the previous kings, everyone would learn from role models, not only required themselves to learn, but also required others to learn. This became a sentence that future parents and teachers often say: Look at how others do it, and then look at yourself.

The source of other people's children lies in Mencius, who are the Fa-Lao Kings. They can learn from role models and ask for both themselves and others. Of course, it is mainly because they are too difficult to demand themselves. Although they cannot do it, they do not hinder others from demanding them. After all, the Fa-Lao Kings is not Fa-Lao Kings. Mencius himself did not, but it does not hinder him from demanding others for doing it.

Just as Yun Yao and Simei were talking, the close ministers had quietly asked the dogs to take bloody raw meat and throw it behind Zhuang Zhou, hoping to attract famous dogs to hurt people.

The dogs keep staring at the inside, and as long as the meat comes, the dogs will pounce on them. These dogs are raised by dogs, so they will not be polite to eat.

Zhuang Zhou was still thinking about the bizarre politics, shocked by the aristocrats when they thought about problems, but instead used the right and wrong as the standard, but used the pursuit of profit and avoiding harm as the standard. This was quite subverted Zhuang Zhou's education. After all, when he was studying, the teacher would not directly talk about interests without any concealment.

Since there is no right or wrong, then the monarch is not a monarch, ministers are not ministers, scholars are not scholars, and nationals are not nationals. Everyone will do incredible things for profit at critical moments.

That's right, that's it. Most of the time in history, people show off their operations for their own interests. If they show off well, they are wise and loyal ministers, and if they show off well, they are foolish and mediocre officials.

Of course, the core value of right and wrong cannot be lost. After all, if the core value is lost, there is no way to sit together and play.

Wow wool wool wool...

Zhuang Zhou was awakened by the barking of a dog, and saw three ferocious black-skinned puppy rushing towards him like a hungry tiger. He was stunned and had no time to react. The three shiny evil dogs were already in front of him.

I will definitely not be able to run away, and Zhuang Zhou has no idea what to do?

When you are chased by a dog, it is best to yell and scare it. Open your arms to make yourself look bigger. Running is not a good way. Of course, standing there like Zhuang Zhou is not OK, and you will definitely be knocked down.

Even if he could see the saliva, he could see clearly, and Zhuang Zhou's mind was blank.

But Yun Yao moved, and she had three arrows in her hand, and three arrows were shot with one string.
