Chapter 2545: One-of-a-kind Chang'an City(2/2)
Fei Zhen must learn to think independently. Even if he has suggestions and assistance from others, thinking independently and drawing conclusions is still a very important ability. The sooner he masters it, the better.
As for the correctness of the conclusion, it is not important in the early stage, but to know how to do it.
Fei Qian glanced at Fei Zhen and still said, "Don't think about it too complicated... The more complicated the problem is, the more simplified it... Whatever you think is, say what you first, otherwise how can you know whether you are thinking right or wrong?"
『Complex...simple...』 Fei Zhen repeated a few times, "Learning? Not right...is it a scripture?"
Fei Qian nodded, "Look, isn't this simple? Where are the emperors, monarchs and ministers, even the people in the world, the land of the world, etc. written? Where are they written? Where are they from? The scriptures! They have learned the same scriptures from generation to generation, and they have regarded them as classics from generation to generation, so naturally they are passed down from generation to generation... So, who wrote this scripture? Confucius and Mencius and others. So why can Confucius and Mencius write, and why are the books of other philosophers rarely retained? Are they the other philosophers illiterate, or do not write books?"
"This... shouldn't be..." Fei Zhen replied.
『So, what's the reason?" Fei Qian asked, 『Think about the questions I asked before, and connect them... Don't stop after thinking of an answer, continue pushing down... Don't just focus on the surface when looking at the questions, and try to find the kernel as much as possible...』
Fei Zhen's little face wrinkled again.
After another moment, Fei Zhen suddenly clapped her hands, "I thought that the scriptures are for inheritance! Inheritance! Among the hundreds of schools of thought, only the teachings of Confucius and Mencius have been passed down!"
'Inheritance... is right, but it is not just Confucius and Mencius who passed down...' Fei Qian laughed and said, 'Didn't you discover it yourself? What are the six arts of gentlemen that can be considered to be what Kong Zhongni was originally good at? It's not those books, but
『…』 Fei Zhen couldn't answer.
"It's fusion..." Fei Qian said slowly, "If you merge what you are not good at, you will become what you are good at..."
Fei Zhen clapped her hands, "It's what Qinglong Temple said,!"
Removing the drought and retention of the essence is the language of later generations, but after Fei Qian spoke it out, Pang Shanmin quoted it and spread it, and there was no special cognitive impairment.
Ruth, weed, cyanine, refers to leeks, or cyanine.
Fei Qian nodded slowly, "This is the most fundamental...serious, for this, for the right explanation, for this, for the introduction of Taixi, and for this..."
In the world, only the four ancient civilizations of China were preserved in later generations. Although this is affected by many external factors in geographical contexts, the core issue is the inheritance of culture.
Confucianism is a very important part of the inheritance of Chinese culture.
The reason why Confucianism was able to defeat many competitors at the beginning and became the mainstream of inheritance of Chinese culture is not because Confucianism itself is so powerful, but because Confucianism was very weak at the beginning.
The Legalists rely on the power of the monarch and control punishment.
Although the Mo family did not rely on the power of the emperor, they met with an arrow through the clouds.
As for the famous masters, although there is only one broken mouth left in the weekdays, a tongue can make the Six Kingdoms obey at important moments...
When other scholars were highlighting, Confucius was wandering.
The other philosophers are officials, and those who are in power are in power, and Confucius is still in the countryside...
Confucius was in Lu State in his 20s and was only a free official who managed warehouses and cattle and sheep. Later, he was not valued. He was not appointed as the chief executive of the local government by Lu Ding Gong when he was almost 50 years old. He was promoted to Sikong three years later, equivalent to the Minister of Engineering and Construction of Lu State. In the fourth year, 51-year-old Confucius became the Grand Secretary of Lu State, equivalent to the Minister of Justice of Lu State, and served as the Minister of Justice of Lu.
This is the biggest official Confucius ever served in his life. Obviously, he is incomparable to the prime ministers of the Six Kingdoms.
Of course, many people are not of the same age as Confucius, and may not be comparable, but Confucius and Mencius can be connected together. They are both from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and they are not a big deal for comparing each other.
So why are the other philosophers shining ahead and becoming dim, while only Confucius is becoming brighter and brighter, and then it influences China for thousands of years?
Because at the beginning, Confucius had nothing, but later Confucius "had everything".
Confucius not only became a "saint", but also had various "subtle and profound meanings", so that the subsequent dynasties stared at it, but they did not look up and slowly stopped moving forward...
"The emperor, there should be, but this is not from the sky, but from the world. If you put the cart before the horse and think you are the emperor, it is often difficult to become the real emperor..." Fei Qian touched Fei Zhen's head and said slowly, "If you really take the world as yourselves, then even if you are not the emperor in your reputation, you will be better than the emperor..."
"Whether weapons, scriptures, or even the entire China, and the Western Western Regions, should be tools in your hands... and should not become a kind of confinement..."
"Or, it becomes a burden that drags down your progress..."
"Just like this wind, once it stops, it will disappear and you cannot continue to whistle..."
Fei Zhen opened her eyes wide, looked at Fei Qian with a little thoughtful look, and then looked into the distance.
The north wind whistles.
There are always some people who refuse to look up, there are always some people who refuse to change, there are always some people who refuse to be humble, and there are always some people who refuse to tolerate, but it doesn’t matter. As long as there are some people who can sense the wind in the distance, explore the changes in the world, and are willing to seek knowledge, innovation, and change, then China will have a better tomorrow and a brighter brilliance!
In Chang'an City, there are far more than just Fei Qian and his son looking forward to dawn in the face of darkness...
There was a Huang's workshop facing the red iron block, and there was a loud bang.
Hammering the anvil and sparks splashed everywhere.
Only after thousands of tempering can one be tenacious.
There is a small courtyard in the library, with books spread out on the table, and candles flashing.
The pen fell on the paper and the ink was stained.
Only after tens of millions of writing can one obtain muscles and bones.
Unique Chang'an City.
