Three Kingdoms

Currently, there are only two and a half Taoist scriptures in Dahan that can actually be regarded as Taoist scriptures.

That's right, the Taoist disciples of the Han Dynasty are so pitiful now.

One of these books is naturally the Taoist classic, the Tao Te Ching.

This is why Wei Kang felt that his opportunity had come. There are no such things as Du Niang in this era. You can find the original text of "Tao Te Ching" with just a casual search, and you can also find the translation and annotations along the way. Among the children of aristocratic families, due to the decline of Huang-Lao's studies, not many people specifically study the "Tao Te Ching" among the classics, and even less than a quarter of those who study the "Book of Changes".

Those difficult-to-understand hexagrams in the "Book of Changes" would not be easy to understand unless one already has a certain understanding of them. This is like when Fei Qian went south to Jingzhou and listened to Xunshi's lectures in Yingchuan. Then Xunshi said he wanted to talk about "Yi Jing" Sutra is the gathering of all directions. This shows that the "Book of Changes" cannot be understood by ordinary people, let alone the "Tao Te Ching" which has fewer researchers than the "Book of Changes".

The other book is, of course, Zhuangzi.

Lao Zhuang does not separate families.

But the problem is that "Zhuangzi" can be said to be a Taoist scripture, or it can be said not to be. Because in fact, "Zhuangzi" prefers to show Zhuangzi's own critical spirit, involving philosophy, art, aesthetics, aesthetics, etc. It is rich in content, broad and profound, and discusses many aspects such as philosophy, life, politics, society, art, and the theory of cosmogenesis, not just Taoist content. Of course, if we insist on saying that "Taoism" is in a broad sense, then Buddhists and Confucianists can also say that their sects are also in a broad sense. Then we have fallen into the weird circle of who is whose father, right?

Later, Taoists did not dare to directly say that it was based on Zhuangzi, so they secretly named Zhuangzi a Nanhua Zhenren, and then said that this was the Taoist "Nanhua Zhenjing".

As for whether it is a true scripture, Fei Qian doesn't think so, but Mr. Zhuang must be "shocked".

After all, Zhuangzi and Laozi were both called the same before. How come that in the blink of an eye, Laozi became the incarnation of Laojun, while Zhuangzi himself could only become a real person?

Taoist disciples call themselves Tianzun, which means that firstly I am older than Zhuangzi, and secondly I am the incarnation of Laojun...

This logic turns back again, as if to prove who is whose father.

Zhuangzi expressed his dissatisfaction, saying, "The Yellow Emperor and Duke of Zhou are still older. Why don't you talk about the Yellow Emperor and Duke of Zhou?"

The Taoist disciples made a sad face, do you always think we are not kidding? You're kidding, they're all incarnations, they're all...

Zhuangzi had no choice but to say "Tangerine Ma Wheat Peel" and let it go.

The remaining half of the Taoist scriptures? Yes, it is the "Book of Changes".

After all, do you want to be in a relationship with Confucianism?

In today's Han Dynasty, no matter what type of scriptures they are, many of them have been stamped and stamped by Confucian disciples. Not only stamped, but also spit in them. Come on, grab food. We are professionals, who is afraid? who? !

Take Dong Zhongshu’s thoughts as an example. They are not only originally from Confucianism, but also from Yin-Yang, Legalism, and Mohism. Then Mr. Dong coughed, who said it was yours? Do you have the copyright? Let’s talk about copyright. I will write another one now and add a clause. These things will be mine for all eternity, not to mention fifty years after death!

When a shameless person fights with a shameless person, the shameless person will definitely suffer some losses.

It's like using the banner of a century-old Chinese brand and selling Western craftsmanship and standards to create a set of knives that can't be used to chop garlic. The society under the rule of law really saved it. Otherwise, according to traditional customs, this would have to be picked on the spot. He kicked the sign to pieces!

Regarding this matter, is the rule of law right or wrong?

This is the problem Fei Qian is facing now.

He cannot easily delegate the power of interpretation because people's hearts are greedy.

This has been true since ancient times.

If you let your subordinates do it easily and let them set the standards for everything, then who knows if the knife that was originally used to chop garlic will develop into a knife that cannot chop garlic. It was originally milk that meets the protein standard. After that, it turned into milk that not only reduced the protein but also increased the number of colonies. It was originally an APP that took up a small space and had no ads. After it developed, it turned into an APP that not only took up a huge space but also couldn't turn off the ads...

Among the Chinese feudal dynasties, there are many people who look kind and polite on the surface, but inside they are like ghosts.

Let these people compile some "true scriptures", can you rest assured?

After all, even the society of later generations, where the rule of law far surpasses that of the Han Dynasty, is so magical, let alone compiling a religious system that is purely based on the heart as evidence and is based on idealism. A slight negligence will lead to a big disaster. .

Just like the Yellow Turban Rebellion...

By the way, some people in later generations still say that the three Zhang Jiao brothers are also the incarnations of Lao Jun...

The incarnation of God?

The reason why Fei Qian focuses on the serious interpretation of Qinglong Temple is to cut off Confucianism's use of prophecies to make small talk and big ideas, and move towards the so-called idealism route. The education, enlightenment and inheritance of Confucianism are already very remarkable, so why bother Fighting for jobs with religion?

Based on this, Fei Qian needs to be more cautious about Taoist scriptures. It is easy for anyone to mess around, and it is easy to say irresponsible words, but it is not easy to build a shining beacon for China for hundreds or even thousands of years.

This time I deceived people from the Snowy Area casually, next time I can deceive anyone from the Northern Wilderness, and then I deceive my own people, and finally I even deceived myself to the point of believing...

For example, China has "a vast land and abundant resources" and "a kingdom in heaven".

Fei Qian knew very well that China in later generations would be short of oil. To what extent is it lacking? So lacking that even though they knew that monopoly would lead to corruption, they still had to let the energy sector have a monopoly. In recent years, the oil mice caught from oil drums are not just one or two, but nests...

Then he said that as long as the poisonous wine does not cause an attack, it can still quench his thirst. If you don't drink it, you'll die on the spot. If you drink it, you still have a chance to find an antidote.

Is this right?

As for iron ore, manganese ore, chromium ore, copper ore, aluminum ore, potassium ore, etc., not to mention some rare minerals, China even lacks wood, because the Outer Xing'an Mountains, which has the most wood in China, was cut off by prodigal sons. .

Of course, these missing things cannot fall from the sky.

Therefore, China must carry out proactive expansion.

Active expansion naturally includes the use of force, culture, and yes, religion...

This is a civilized world, isn't it?

If Fei Qian used force to expand or recover the Western Regions, and Fei Qian used cultural enlightenment to erode and naturalize the Southern Xiongnu, then the Snow Region was the result of Fei Qian's attempt to use religion to infiltrate and eventually assimilate.

Hey, Fei Qian couldn't help but think of his own Civilization game save that he had never cleared...

If you have a save file, try it first. If it doesn't work, you can just load the save file and start over.

"Edit" cannot be made up.

Everyone is staring at Fei Qian. If Fei Qian makes it up, the people below will make it up even more. And they will try every means to make it up, but in the end they have to bear the bitter fruit and let ordinary people eat it.

In fact, there were emperors who did this in history.

For example, Wenzi, Liezi, and Gengsangzi were included in the Taoist and Classical system by the Tang Dynasty...

During the Tang Dynasty, the emperor wanted to promote Taoism, but it turned out that Taoism was too pitiful. Only two old men, Lao and Zhuang, were left to support it? He still had to argue with the Confucianists about the Book of Changes, which was simply asking for nothing. How could he live in this situation? So the Emperor of Tang Dynasty announced with a stroke of his pen that from now on, Wenzi, Liezi, and Geng Sangzi would all belong to Taoism. Who agrees? Who objects?

The ministers glanced left and right, looked at each other, and then lowered their heads in unison: "My Holy Emperor!" 』

This approach is indeed trouble-free, but what is the actual effect?

Originally, the thoughts of these people were not necessarily Taoist. In order to be related to Taoism, more lies were spawned and more loopholes were created. Take Wenzi as an example. In fact, he and Confucius were contemporaries. Like Confucius, he came to Laozi for advice. But does it mean that Wenzi is Taoist? Does that mean that Confucius, who also asked Laozi for advice, was also a Taoist?

It was like what was supposed to be a very gorgeous Taoist robe, but ended up with several patches of inconsistent colors on it.

Patch number one.

Then, there was a gap in Patch No. 1, and later generations patched it again in order to make things far-fetched.

Patch No. 2, No. 3...

Finally, it should be on the extremely gorgeous Chinese Taoist robe. At first glance, it is all patches. Only the patches are visible. What it originally looked like. My thoughts, which should be the understanding of heaven and earth, are covered bit by bit in this way. Without a trace. Only the gods in the sky are left, all colorful, but with gold and jade outside...

Can I wear it?

It can indeed be worn.

However, it shouldn't have been like this originally. What brilliant thoughts and beautiful clothes ended up being like this patch or that patch in later generations?

Fei Qian frowned.

"Shi Yuan, please stay here for a moment..." Fei Qian coughed, "Some... well, come as soon as you go..."

Pang Tong's eyes wandered for a moment, he didn't dare to smile, he just nodded seriously.

Of course Fei Qian was not going to change clothes for convenience, but was preparing to find foreign aid.

Known as the library where the great man walks, Cai Jiajia.

Fei Qian sauntered into the backyard with his hands behind his back, turned around the corridor, and entered the back hall. He looked up and saw Cai Yan teaching Fei Zhen.

What’s on is the Book of Songs.

Fei Qian listened to a few sentences, it was "Chen Feng·East Gate Pond"...

Speaking of these ancient scriptures, such as the Three Rites, the Book of Changes, and the Book of Songs, they all need to be explained and taught by a master, otherwise it is easy to understand them one-sidedly, or only see their superficial meanings, just like This is "Chen Feng·East Gate Pond". If you only read the literal meaning, then it is just a scene of men and women at the city gate soaking and washing hemp, and then singing to each other while working.

But if you add the historical background of Chen State, some new meanings may be derived...

After all, the article needs to be connected with the context, and it must be interpreted according to the background of the time when the article was written, so that it can be regarded as a more correct way to understand an article. As for the historical environment of Chen State at that time, if someone does not know how to explain it, just follow it On the surface, it means that this is a group of bad men and women singing obscene songs to each other, which is somewhat excessive.

After all, the Book of Songs was also revised by Master Confucius. If you say this is a pornographic song, wouldn’t you be slapping the old Master in the face?

Fei Qian thought about this, and suddenly seemed to be touched by something. He couldn't help but stop and frowned in thought.

After a while, Cai Yan's teaching to Fei Zhen came to an end, and Yingying walked out and saluted beside Fei Qian, "I've seen my husband... What are you doing...?" 』

"ah? Oh oh..." Fei Qian came back to his senses, "It's nothing, um... By the way, madam, do you know what Taoist scriptures are available at the moment? 』

"Tao Jing?" ” Cai Yan opened his eyes slightly, apparently feeling that Fei Qian’s question was a bit superficial and incomprehensible, “The Tao Te Ching…”

"Except the Tao Te Ching." Fei Qian said, "I know the Tao Te Ching." 』

"Apart from the Tao Te Ching, does the Tai Ping Jing count?" ” Cai Yan said again.

Fei Qian waved his hand, "How can you calculate peace? It's far-fetched. There are many prophecies. It's obviously a forgery by later generations, just using the name of an immortal." 』

Cai Yan rolled his eyes, "If you say so, it really doesn't exist anymore... What's wrong?" 』

In fact, during the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was actually a "Zhouyi Shen Tongqi" that was enshrined as the classic by later Taoists. However, Fei Qian did not have this scripture, and Cai Yan did not see it. Because this book is still in the hands of a Taoist priest named Wei, it is still unclear whether it has been completely written at this stage. Moreover, this Wei Taoist priest is no longer in Chang'an Sanfu, but in Jiangdong. It is also an ordinary Taoist scripture, similar to articles such as the commentary on the Yi Jing written by Confucian disciples.

Therefore, when it comes to the Taoist "True Sutra", it is really in short supply.

Fei Qian told Cai Yan the general situation.

Cai Yan nodded, "If we talk about the real Taoist scriptures, there is only the Tao Te Ching. The rest... most of them were written by later generations, just borrowing the names of their ancestors... Since we are seeking truth. Sutra, can’t we just give the Tao Te Ching? 』

"Only give me the Tao Te Ching, so what..." Fei Qian laughed, and halfway through his words, an idea suddenly came to his head, yes, why not?

Wrong thinking!

Affected by the movies and TV shows of later generations, Fei Qian also felt that he wanted to go to Elder Tang to learn the scriptures. After arriving in Xitian, the warehouse was opened and the scriptures were carried out one by one, and then it was called the completion of the scriptures.

Then I felt that there were so many Confucian scriptures, and Taoism had to produce ten or eight volumes in order to be considered a rich "true scripture" and reflect the magnanimity of a great country...

But Cai Yan's words awakened Fei Qian.

Why are there so many "true scriptures"?

Why should we follow the path of Confucianism or Buddhism?

"Hahaha, what the lady said is true! Fei Qian couldn't help but hold Cai Yan's hand and laughed. If it weren't for the guards around him and Fei Zhen stretching his head to watch, Fei Qian really wanted to hug Cai Yan and kiss him, and pulled Cai Yan close to him. Then he whispered, "In the evening, I'll talk to my wife again in the evening...I'm leaving!" 』

After saying that, Fei Qian turned around and left, leaving behind a somewhat shy Cai Yan.

"Really..." Cai Yan said coquettishly. When he turned around and saw Fei Zhen stretching her head and looking over with her eyes rolling, she couldn't help but put on a straight face, "Look at your father. Only call me ma'am when something happens. It's okay." He just waved his hands and left... You can't imitate him! Can you memorize what I just taught you? Come back and let me listen! 』

Feizhen immediately lowered her head as if she had been hit by frost, "Oh..."

……(;￢＿￢)……

Fei Qian walked faster and faster, and then the smile gradually bloomed on his face.

"The road is simple..." Fei Qian clapped his hands, walked into the hall, sat down, and said to Pang Tong with a smile, "You and I are asking for trouble... When the sky is clear and the earth is peaceful, Gods can gain spirit, grains can be full, all things can live, and princes can make the world pure! Why are there so many true scriptures? The true scriptures are one and the same! 』

When Pang Tong heard this, he was startled for a moment, thought about it, and then started to laugh, "A small argument breaks the words, a small word breaks the meaning, a small meaning breaks the Dao, a small Dao is impenetrable, and the faith will be simplified." This is exactly what it is! There are dozens of apocryphal books, not as good as the only true book! The true scripture is the "Tao Te", and the rest of the Taoist scriptures are all apocryphal scriptures! This formula is consistent with Qinglong’s theory of the correct solution! Only in this way can Taoism be passed down in an orderly manner and traced directly to its origins! Wonderful, wonderful! 』

The more Pang Tong talked, the more excited he became, "Just now, Cai Chen felt that something was wrong, but now that I think about it, that's where I went wrong!" Many gentry disciples are dissatisfied with the theory of the Qinglong Temple's serious scriptures and the absolute prophecies. Now, if we pretend to rely on other scriptures and pass them on to the people who learn the scriptures as true scriptures, wouldn't we be insulting ourselves? How will we talk about the correct solution in the future? The Taoist scriptures are the only moral scriptures. They were established by Laozi. Confucius asked Laozi for advice, and Zhuangzi also asked Laozi for advice. Many of the Spring and Autumn Classics originated from Laozi. If morality is not a true scripture, what scripture can be called a true scripture? 』

Pang Tong clapped his hands and continued, "The True Scripture is the only one." Taoism is the morality, Confucianism is the Analects, and the rest of the classics are either side scriptures, other explanations, or later annotations. They have the merits of the sages who established the theory, and they also have the merits of later generations. They are inherited in an orderly manner, and each has its origin and can be eliminated. It's far-fetched, but you can avoid attaching it to others, avoid confusing the order of precedence, and avoid copying other people's works! This formula is the correct solution to the main theory of Qinglong Temple! Fortunately, my lord gave me some advice, and I almost missed something important! 』

Fei Qian smiled and felt that his thoughts were clear.

Aren't all the confusing accounts and disgusting incidents in later feudal dynasties caused by the lack of a clear standard? Speaking of the rule of law, among the feudal dynasties, which dynasty did not formulate various laws and regulations? But the actual effect is not good, because no matter how many laws there are, it is still ruled by people, because these officials, from the beginning of studying the scriptures, have to find reasons and excuses for the scriptures to obey the orders of their superiors. All kinds of weird needs, to satisfy the various desires of the upper class and find the basis for the strange circle.

In the end, the right to interpret all things can be attributed to this or that, but it does not belong to the common people.

The household registration system was formulated by the above-mentioned requirements, and various procedures were also formulated by the above-mentioned requirements. As a result, all the things that were implemented turned out to require the people to do this and do that to prove that their father is their father, their mother is their mother, and their grandfather is their father. It's grandpa, grandma is grandma, and the guy sitting inside doesn't even move his buttocks.

Does this make sense?

It doesn't make sense, but that's the process.

And where did this process come from?

Because at the beginning of China, where all theories originated, it was already unreasonable and chaotic. Whoever fisted the shit belonged to him, and whoever grabbed it belonged to him. Then we can still expect that the subsequent theoretical development will be consistent with logic. , obey the law?

At the end of the day, Tiantian said that innovation should be encouraged, and then someone was really foolish enough to innovate. Immediately, someone relied on their power and wealth to rush in like a pig, either to purchase, annex, or slap him to death. , or tear it into pieces, is this called encouraging innovation?

As a result, there is no innovation at all. Everyone is shouting that they will not give birth and that they want to lie down, so they panic, try their best to deceive, shout some slogans loudly, and throw out three melons and two dates to express their feelings. What's the use?

If he really left for three melons and two dates, who would it be? Will they be those who were originally obsessed with research and innovation?

How much time and enthusiasm are wasted by doing this?

China could have been better!

But this group of wild boars still think they are not wrong, because this has been the case since Confucius and Mencius!

Regardless of whether it is true or false, they are all based on the name of the superiors and the ancestors. They are all about serving the people and sharing the worries of Guizhou. In fact, they are passing all the responsibilities to the superiors, to the ancestors, and to the subordinates. Push it to the people, and then you just sit and wait and watch, doing nothing. When you see the benefits, you pounce on it and take it all on yourself!

The source of everything is right here...

"That's how it is..." Fei Qian clapped his hands and burst into laughter, "Seeking truth and rightness is the only source!" 』

The king and his ministers looked at each other and smiled, as if they had let go of a huge stone in their hearts.

Relaxed and enjoyable.
