  The elder brother and the surviving son of the family asked for a military letter. Feng Yun thought of his kindness and agreed to it. This was benevolence and righteousness.

Benevolence and righteousness, in this great Zhou Dynasty, when Mohism and Confucianism had not yet appeared, were strange.

 Those who are righteous are mostly knights.

And benevolence and righteousness... The Zhou Dynasty talked about rites. Although there were kinship relationships, they were mostly between scholar-bureaucrats. Common people rarely even had surnames. How to talk about kinship and benevolence and righteousness.

What's more, looking at the scholar-bureaucrats, the benevolence and righteousness between relatives are also bound by etiquette. Among the sons of the emperor, only the legitimate son is the emperor, and the rest are princes.

 The legitimate sons of princes are princes, and the rest are officials...

With this cycle, descendants who are not direct descendants will eventually become common people.

 The benevolence and righteousness of relatives only exist in the ritual system.

The same is true for Feng Yun's lineage. Although he is from the Feng family, he is just a commoner because of the eldest son inheritance system.

 Soon, the emperor would not get close to the concubine and let him perish.

 This is also the core of Zhou Li.

 After all, the land that can be enfeoffed in the world is limited, and it is impossible to enfeoff infinitely, and the number of people is constantly increasing, and this will inevitably lead to an unstable situation. Then, the reduction of the title can effectively suppress this.

And the system of direct son inheritance, in this era of three wives and four concubines, is a powerful tool to stabilize inheritance and curb the killing of descendants.

Now every king of the vassal states, even the scholar-bureaucrats with ancestral shadow, are legitimate sons and the product of legitimate heirs. They will naturally defend the ritual system of the Zhou Dynasty. [Remember the domain name of this website s520.

For Feng Yun to be so close to his nephew who is a commoner, and to use his own interests to exchange opportunities for him, it is really not in line with Zhou etiquette.

Although it is benevolent, it is not etiquette.

 That's why Zongbo said that Feng Yun had the spirit of a knight-errant and a small kindness in his heart.

 Respecting the Zhou rites is a great good.

And Uncle Zong, a respectful man, is willing to open the back door for Feng Yun...

It's because Feng Yun has the potential to become a doctor. When the time comes, Feng Yun will re-enter the family tree and become an independent branch line with the position of doctor. This is the same class as Zong Bo and the others, so Zong Bo will help Feng Yun. This is what Zhou Rites says.

Benevolence and righteousness.

  In other words, it is etiquette.

Righteousness only exists among classes.

 …

 Another night, Feng Yun read "Etiquette" all night long. This time, Feng Yun seemed to really see the idea behind "Etiquette".

"The country is governed by etiquette, and etiquette is used to bind people's behavioral norms... The common people are not without etiquette, but this etiquette is called punishment. The scholar-officials enjoy the benefits brought by the etiquette system, while the common people are suppressed by the punishment, and with their own lives,

Provide the scholar-bureaucrats with their own livelihood."

“Slave is the embodiment of punishment and a warning to the common people.”

 Remember that common people also regard slaves as inferior and inhuman beings. They are complacent about being "free" and feel superior to others when they see slaves. Updated faster xs520.

Feng Yun felt as if he had seen through the underlying rules of Zhou Li.

 Understand what the Zhou Dynasty was like.

“It’s nothing more than a group disguised as etiquette, music and virtue, but internally exploiting the bottom class.”

“If the king is virtuous, it is because being virtuous can bring him better harvests. If he is devoid of virtue and is debauched and immoral, this is also normal under the etiquette system.”

 “Because of etiquette, it is impossible for the following to restrain the superior.”

“The king should only salute the emperor, because disrespecting the emperor will be punished, but the princes do not need to salute their subordinates and will not be punished.”

“Similar to the scholar-bureaucrats, this means that the punishment cannot be compared to the officials, let alone the princes.”

“And the emperor is even more like this. He only needs to maintain the operation of Zhou Li and follow the rules of Zhou Li, and he will be invincible among the princes.”

 With the herd mentality, even if one or two disrespectful characters appear, they will not threaten Zhou Li, but will be attacked by a group of people.

 Full version????????????.????

If you were born in this era from the beginning and were a beneficiary, who wouldn't follow the etiquette?

 Even Feng Yun, a later generation, also enjoyed the convenience brought by the etiquette system.

Even if one knows the inner problems of Zhou rites, it is difficult to break this solid etiquette character.

Of course, not to mention that Feng Yun is now a sergeant in a small country. Even if he becomes the monarch of a powerful country, he cannot shake the etiquette system. That would be an enemy to all classes in the world.

Even the scholar-bureaucrats in the country would kill their disrespectful monarch with their own hands.

"What caused the collapse of rituals and music?" Feng Yun couldn't help but think of the turning point in the ritual system of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Logically speaking, etiquette is the destiny of the princes, and it is the core of the orthodoxy of their legitimate sons.

Even if the Zhou Dynasty declines, they must still follow the rules and support the great Zhou Dynasty...

 Feng Yun, who didn't know much about this in his previous life, fell into confusion at this time.

But when the first ray of light in the morning came through the window and hit Feng Yun's tired face, his doubts slowly disappeared.

 Husband, don’t worry about unknown numbers, only then can you have an open-minded mind to look at them and solve them.

Just as it is difficult to see the whole mountain when you are in this mountain, Feng Yun must look at the future rationally in order to find his place in the future.

 “Dong dong dong!”

“Your Majesty, Shi’an, Da Zai and Zong Bo asked me to send you the Thirty-Six Hexagrams of Da Ting and the Book of Strangers.”

Hearing the sound, Feng Yun stood up and said softly: "I have a job for you."

 “It’s polite to be a sergeant.” This man was followed by several guards, carrying a large wooden box. There should be books in this wooden box.

After the books were put away, these people hurriedly left.

 The palace room of classics is not something they can stay in.

Feng Yun opened the box. Above it was the "Book of Strangers", which was written in silk. Under it was a bamboo slip, which was the "Thirty-Six Hexagrams of Da Ting", which was deduced by Da Zai based on the last four hexagrams of "The Book of Changes".

The words of Yi Gua.

 Soon, Feng Yun opened the "Book of Strangers".

 The front of it is a description of the third-level and ninth-level aliens, which is no different from what Feng Yun saw before.

 After that, there is a discussion of the first level and the acquired three streams.

 This is also the core of this book and what Feng Yun needs.

  But before discussing it, the book first records the descriptions of aliens’ different skills and their natal weapons.

 There are three types of different skills: skills, methods, and ways. Each type is divided into lower, middle, and upper grades, a total of nine grades. Each grade has ten grades, making a total of ninety grades.

Every magic can be understood from everything in the world, but reading is the best, because the words in the book are inherited from the ancestors and can help others understand.

  There are nine levels of quality of alien magic itself.

 After learning, the performance will also grow up and down. When you first learn, you will be humble, and after you learn, you will become proficient...

 The more proficient a foreign art is, the more powerful it will be under the use of Wen Qi.

Just like now, after the duel with the monster last night, both the hexagram and the hexagram Weiji have improved a bit. This is learning and applying, which is the most proficient.

 After that comes the natal weapon.

 The alien has a device that can give birth to his or her destiny. It is a thing that protects the Tao and is also the embodiment of the Tao.

Zongbo’s ritual lock is the weapon of his destiny, condensed from his understanding of rituals.

As mentioned before by Baojun, there is a legend about Fu Xi’s natal weapon in Da Ting. This is also the case. This weapon is a manifestation of the Tao that Fu Xi has achieved.

Today, Feng Yun can give birth to her own destiny as long as she becomes a stranger.

 But the natal weapon needs Feng Yun to already have part of the Tao before it can be condensed.

“Today, only in the Book of Changes, I still have some literati, and the rest are very few.”

Feng Yun did not want to use "Zhou Rites" or "Rites" to enter the literary world, and "Zhou Yi" was his best choice.

Therefore, after Feng Yun finished reading the "Book of Strangers", he picked up the "Thirty-Six Hexagrams of Da Ting", using this to embrace all rivers, enhance his study of Yi, and speed up the cultivation of "Zhou Yi" in his mind, and strive for

Hurry up and gather the next hexagram magic.

 Reach the level of a third-rate literati as soon as possible...
