Chapter 175: Ding Old Innovation
"Lu Zhi greets General Cavalry." After Lu Zhi went out, he hugged his hands together, bowed his hands high, and bowed to Liu Fan from top to bottom.
He bowed three times in a row, and he was very sincere.
The bowing starts from the Zhou Dynasty and belongs to the Zhou ritual.
At the beginning of Zhou, after King Wu's death, his son King Cheng of Zhou ascended the throne at a young age. His uncle, Duke Zhou, took many measures to consolidate the regime. Duke Zhou established various rules and regulations of the Zhou Dynasty and established a political system centered on the patriarchal system. The courtesy and rituals began to spread throughout the world.
The etiquette of shaking hands in later generations gradually replaced the etiquette of bowing, which is also a loss of culture.
Because bowing has too many advantages over handshake gifts.
The bowing ceremony can be ten in a generation, even hundreds in a generation, and tens of millions in a generation.
Shaking hands with the person with a height and a low body is a great rude and even a difficult situation. The person with a high body is tired of bowing his back, and the person with a low body is at risk of being suspended. It is inevitable that some solemn diplomacy or some kind of joy will be reunited a bit funny.
There is no need to worry about bowing. You can raise your head and chest, stand like a pillar, be majestic, heroic, and be taller than your hands and cantilevered with your fists, fully displaying your beautiful body shape and beautiful demeanor.
Many people have had this experience. When shaking hands, one party has reached out, the other party has not seen it or deliberately pretended not to see it, so that the other party's hand can stop in the air and shrink, and it is not to shrink. Time passes in seconds, which is extremely embarrassing. And bowing can completely avoid this dilemma.
Lu Zhi performed three rituals in a row, not only because Liu Fan was appointed as the General of the Cavalry, but also because Liu Fan helped him escape from prison and restored his post.
"The great scholars in the country, the scholars' expectations have ruined me." Liu Fan replied with a bow.
"Please ask the General of the Cavalry to come to Taiwan to manage the government." Lu Zhi asked Liu Fan.
This is Lu Zhi, although he is taciturn, he is upright and has a clear distinction between public and private.
Liu Fan had the right to review memorials from various places, but he had no right to review. Reviewing memorials was the right of the emperor. As for whether he read it or not, Liu Fan could not care about it.
Many memorials listed are the general situation of counties and states after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and some people asked for funds from the court.
From the review of memorials, Liu Fan could feel that many official positions were disobedient. Just looking at these memorials, he didn't know anything about the world.
At this moment, Liu Fan became more determined to make the decision in his heart.
...
"The Han Dynasty is decadent and the people are living in poverty. I want to prosper the great power of the world. Please inform me what I should do?"
The General's Mansion of the Cavalry. Xun You, Yang Xu, and Zhang Jun became Liu Fan's guest of the curtain. Liu Fan invited them to the hall and asked questions as soon as they met.
"The rebellion in the world is caused by the ten regular attendants who sell official positions and harm the people, and they do everything they can. Their fathers, brothers and children are spreading to prefectures and counties, and they are greedy and humiliating. They should murder them and their followers. This dark cloud will be eliminated, and the world will be bright." Zhang Jun said angrily to Liu Fan.
"It's so difficult to get rid of it all." Liu Fan sighed and shook his head. He sighed not only with the Ten General Assistants, but also with more potential factors.
This Zhang relies entirely on his passion and hates evil. He is an official in the local area and is definitely a capable official in Qingming and easy to offend people in the court.
Little did they know that this was no longer as simple as the Ten Constellation Rebellion. Even if the Ten Constellation Assistant was killed, there were still mountains that blocked the way forward for the Han Dynasty.
"The general should be based on the people. During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, most of the people who follow the thief were unable to feed themselves. If they do not appease the people of the world, the Yellow Turban will probably rekindle again." Yang Xu said incisively.
"Officials forced the people to rebel, and the court no longer had the majesty of Emperor Guangwu's period. Many government orders were issued to the local governments, but the counties refused to implement them. Instead, they were harsh and cruel. They forced the people to rise up because of the road to go. In the cold year, I knew that the pine and cypress would wither. If I wanted to innovate, how many people would support me?" Liu Fan still sighed heavily.
"The tripod has been innovated, I wonder what the general wants to change?" Yang Xu asked.
"What do you mean by Gongda?" Liu Fan did not answer, but asked Xun You.
"This is the last chance of the Han Dynasty. If the general doesn't grasp it, there will be no chance. If he grasps it, there will be only a slight chance." Xun You stood up and said ambiguously.
"Gongda knows what I want to say?" Liu Fan asked with a frown.
"I don't know, so I said there was only a slight chance." Xun You shook his head and said.
Xun You is a wise man, and a wise man judges the situation, and his eyes are different from others.
Xun You's words made Liu Fan feel unsure, but Xun You's next words made Liu Fan firm. He said: "There is only a slight chance of overthrowing the tyrant Qin and defeating Xiang Yu, but Emperor Gaozu succeeded."
This sentence made Liu Fan think of Liu Bei, who fell and got up again and again, never admit defeat. He lost all his money, wiped away his tears, and started over again. He had no chance, but he also succeeded.
"A gentleman does not blame the heavens, but cannot help others. I said: Governing a big country is like cooking a small freshman. I don't have that kind of state. However, there is a little bit like governing a country. Governing a country is the same as governing a military. Governing a country, governing a military is the most taboo to look forward to the front and lose the other." Liu Fan said firmly.
If the heaven wants to govern, then the holy king will come out. If the heaven does not want to govern, then the holy king will not come out.
If the heaven does not give birth to saints and kings, can’t we fight for it by ourselves? Only when there are people will there be a saint king.
If there will be a king in five hundred years, there will be a famous person in the world.
Could it be that the five hundred years in this prophecy must be bound by five hundred years? He valued more the kind of mood of worrying about the country and the spirit of courage to take responsibility in this sentence: "Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world."
Liu Fan couldn't wait to push the wheel of history forward.
Natural disasters and man-made disasters have been coming for decades, and he doesn't want the war to last for decades.
"I don't know what the general is thinking, but I strongly support the general." Zhang Jun said solemnly.
"The general should not act too hasty. He should call on the aspiring people in the court to join him." Yang Xu persuaded Liu Fan.
"Well, I only have one opportunity and one opening opportunity. You can contact the people of aspirations in the world and work with me to develop the Han Dynasty." Liu Fan stood up and said loudly.
Liu Fan waited for another ten days, but before Jia Xu arrived. Liu Fan was speculating that Jia Xu had gone to Yanmen.
But his edict to be appointed as General of the Cavalry has spread all over the world. Jia Xu has no reason and does not know that Liu Fan can only think that Jia Xu is still on the way.
In the past ten days, countless princes, nobles and wealthy families have brought them to visit each other. They are crowded with people every day, but they are all blocked by soldiers.
On the contrary, those scholars Liu Fan personally met with each other. Those who were knowledgeable were recruited to the General's Mansion and served as officials, leaving behind the reputation of being respected and respected by the wise and humble.
In the court, Liu Fan enthusiastically expressed his views, but he always kept his own voice.
At the Shangshu Desk, Liu Fan meticulously reviewed the memorials sent from various places, and then sorted them out and gave them to Liu Hong.
Liangzhou, Guzang.
Liu Fan was appointed as the General of the Cavalry, and the edict of the Shangshu Affairs was just passed here.
