Chapter 2665 The foundation of loyalty and filial piety(2/2)
Modern and ancient Chinese, Shandong and Shanxi
They are all important nodes of cultural conflict.
The ruling model of the emperor's central counties and counties that the Han Dynasty originally adopted began to collapse, and the definition of the word "loyalty and filial piety" began to deviate. What is loyalty and what is filial piety? Can the original loyalty and filial piety of the Han Dynasty still be used at present? If it cannot be used, how should this loyalty and filial piety be defined?
The original political relationship began to collapse, the glory of the statue of the Han Dynasty was no longer there, and the local tyrants of the family began to dominate the place. The word "Zhong" seemed to start to moxihu, but the word "filial piety" was increasingly emphasized.
"Loyalty" and "filial piety" have been cut into independent concepts from the ambiguous concepts of political integration during the Shang and Zhou dynasties.
Why not be loyal and filial?
Can integrity replace loyalty? Or can filial piety be ahead of loyalty?
If we investigate the root of "loyalty and filial piety", many people will mention Confucius. Although Confucius mentioned "loyalty" as many as eighteen times in the Analects of Confucius, there is no accurate definition of "loyalty", and seven of them are used in "loyalty and trustworthiness", which shows that Confucius actually did not fully think about the concept of "loyalty".
As for the Mohists who were in conflict with Confucianism as early as the Spring and Autumn Period, the concept of loyalty and filial piety was not complete. The word "loyalty" appeared many times in "Mozi" and its connotation was different. Although the Mozi school eventually showed a loyal and fierce side, it eliminated the uneasiness in the king's heart by committing suicide or being suicide, but it also indicated that the Mohists' "loyalty and filial piety" actually had no connection with the "loyalty and filial piety" that the king wanted, and was even very different.
Later, Mencius and Xunzi began to split. Not only in terms of good nature, but also in terms of "loyalty and filial piety", Mencius and Xunzi also became in opposition. Simply put, Mencius focused on filial piety and believed that filial piety was more important than loyalty, while Xunzi focused on loyalty and believed that loyalty was the first priority.
Most of the concepts of "loyalty and filial piety" were later derived from the concepts of these four people. For example, Han Feizi combined loyalty and filial piety into one, which was actually a change.
In order to better provide a political foundation, these Chinese scholars have derived different political logics based on the two major concepts of loyalty and filial piety. Therefore, it can be said that the view of loyalty and filial piety has played a crucial role in promoting the social development of the feudal dynasty in the entire Chinese.
The moral entries based on the foundation of "loyalty" and "filial piety" gradually went from nothing to something during the Shang and Zhou dynasties. Then, after a series of development, as generations of scholars continue to deepen, explain and explain the conflicts and mutual tolerance between loyalty and filial piety, thus derive a unique cultural context structure in China that is completely different from other civilizations.
"Serious and correct explanation!" Sima Hui shouted loudly in a hoarse voice, "Serious and correct explanation! We should seek the origin! Abandon all complicated modifications and get rid of the roots! How about the loyalty and filial piety?"
"The foundation of loyalty and filial piety... remove the complexity and take the foundation directly..." Zheng Xuan's face showed some abnormal red light, and his emotional excitement made him feel that the world was rotating and twisting, but he still said the two most core sentences-
"To do your best to be loyal!"
"To fulfill your responsibilities is to be filial!"
Sima Hui clapped his hands, "Okay! Good! All the people and things are all done, and they can be said to be loyal and filial!"
The two looked at each other and laughed.
The two finally reached a consensus...
Without sacredness, no expansion, no extremism, no modeling, is a very simple concept and a very straightforward explanation, and finally the definition of "loyalty and filial piety" was determined.
"Loyalty and filial piety" is a two-way concept, a relatively fair concept, a moral standard, and should not be an absolute and without preconditions.
When everything attached to it is completely removed, what remains is its essential meaning.
When something is in front of you and do your best to do it well, it is "loyalty" to this matter.
This matter may be something the king has told, or something the people need, or it is from the top to the bottom, or from the bottom to the top.
"Filial piety" is a person's responsibility in the family.
No matter whether it is male or female, it is meaningless to be young. Anyone who is a member of the family will naturally have to fulfill their responsibilities for the entire family, to their parents and to their families.
"Loyalty" focuses on the outside, and "filial piety" focuses on the inside, and from "loyalty" and "filial piety", "faith", "righteousness", etc. can be derived...
The two old men laughed, clapped their hands, and then fell backwards at the same time.
Fortunately, both of them were sitting on the mat and the ground was full of wood, so there would be no direct external damage to the two of them falling down, the focus was on the loss inside the body.
『Quick!』 Hua Tuo rushed in quickly and immediately began to diagnose Zheng Xuan, "Qi and blood deficiency, soil and water deficiency! Phlegm and blood stasis block the meridians, and wind evil enters the brain! There is still Guyang's lineage... Immediate use Duo'er Decoction!"
On the other hand, Taicang Chunyu also diagnosed Sima Hui, "Mr. Shuijing was just suffering from some hard work, so there should be no major problems."
Sima Hui is younger, so Zheng Xuan's current situation is even more serious.
Someone rushed to send the boiled soup, but Zheng Xuan was already closed his teeth and his face turned blue and could not feed him.
The decoction flows out along the corner of the mouth...
"Turn it with the tube!" Hua Tuo took the small bamboo tube, then opened Zheng Xuan's mouth and led the medicine in.
Zheng Xuan also had the instinct to swallow, and the soup slowly came in.
Hua Tuo and Taicang Chunyu both breathed a sigh of relief.
If you can drink decoctions, you will be saved.
"I'll do it first," Taicang Chunyu pressed Zheng Xuan's wrist with one hand, and took out the silver needle with the other hand, and said, "I'll use the needle to stimulate each other... to get Yunmen, Taiyuan, Neiguan... to remove wind and phlegm and boost his vitality..."
Hua Tuo thought for a moment, "But!"
Why is it that Taicang Chunyu went first? It is not that Hua Tuo was not inferior to acupuncture, but Zheng Xuan is older and is in a state of both qi and blood loss like women during childbirth, so it is more suitable for Taicang to use acupuncture. When Hua Tuo went on, it was really a hurry and a big cut. Even if you snatch it, it would be a big damage to Zheng Xuan's body and original energy.
Therefore, if Taicang can save him after applying a needle, it is naturally the best. If it doesn't work, Hua Tuo will take action.
Fei Qian stood in the hall. He didn't understand medical skills, so he couldn't help. He could only watch Taicang Chunyu take out the silver needle, then stab it on Zheng Xuan, and then use the needle to get the air...
Sima Hui on the other side was half-held and was drinking medicine soup.
Suddenly, lightning and thunder were roaring in the sky, and heavy rain poured down.
