Three Kingdoms

Chapter 897: A gentleman should be ambitious (2)

What is righteousness?

The great righteousness of the Han Dynasty is the current moral outlook of the entire society.

When Fei Qian was in later generations, he naturally threw cigarette butts around, and then looked at other people's misfortunes and gloated, but this does not mean that Fei Qian did not understand morality, but he did not have such a profound experience as in the Han Dynasty.

Strictly speaking, morality has no binding force, and there is no pure good or evil.

For example, the earth revolves around the sun, icebergs melt and volcanoes erupt, the wind blows through the treetops and makes a sound, a wolf grabs a lamb and bites its throat, and a man chops down another man with a knife and spills blood on the floor. These things happen in an ordinary way according to the laws of nature, without any emotion, and are not worthy of praise or condemnation.

If a person lives in the forest, he can naturally do anything, he can pick fruits and eat rabbits, he can knock over a hundred bird's nests and collect a hundred eggs at will, he can even commit suicide by hanging himself off a cliff, and do anything. Everything is okay, it has nothing to do with morality, nothing is worthy of praise or condemnation, it is just that some things are good for the person and some things are bad.

But now there are a hundred new strangers living in the forest who don’t know each other?

At first, you can treat them casually. You can steal their food, set fire to their houses, or even kill some of them. This has nothing to do with morality, but some things are beneficial to the original person or It's just a disadvantage...

But here comes the problem. The original person can steal the food of the new person, but the new person can naturally also steal the food of the original person, and even kill the original person in the forest. This is very scary. Because it turns out that there is only one person in the forest, and there are a hundred new arrivals!

Moreover, the hundred new people discovered that this forest is actually very big, and there are thousands of people outside. What should they do? Do we have to live this kind of fearful life every day?

So everyone started to discuss and made an agreement that no one was allowed to steal other people's food or hurt others, otherwise everyone would beat him up together.

Okay, I fell asleep well at night.

This is the most basic morality.

The same is true for the morality of the Han Dynasty. Who will formulate the morality of the Han Dynasty at this time?

Not the emperor, but the nobles.

Fei Qian remembered that later generations seemed to have been emphasizing one sentence, called socialist values ​​and ethics...

In other words, there is naturally capitalist morality, even feudal morality, and slave morality. In short, under different social forms, moral values ​​are different.

So the current moral outlook of the gentry is the Five Constant Principles.

Although those who violate the current moral values ​​​​of the Han Dynasty will not be immediately struck by thunder and killed on the spot, but in a situation where they are like the god of plague wherever they go, and everyone wants to hide away immediately, it is estimated that As long as a normal person is not willing to face it.

Therefore, Fei Qian not only had to find a way to deal with it, but he also had to agree with the righteousness of the Han Dynasty. This was naturally the bottom line, when Fei Qian had no way to change the moral values ​​of the entire society.

However, the people of the Han Dynasty naturally did not experience the era of black and white, referring to deer as horses, and far-fetched ideas in later generations. The kind of model that grabs a small title and involves a big story to attract attention...

*******************

Although it has already entered March, it still seems extremely eerie.

At this time, at the Shaanxi-Jin Ferry, a group of carriages and horses stopped.

During this period, after Li Jue and Guo Si took control of Chang'an City, they began to act rogue, blocking the supply of materials in the palace, and then openly approached Han Emperor Liu Xie to ask for officials, rewards, and titles...

Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty had no choice but to appoint Li Jue as General Yangwu, Guo Bang as General Yanglie, and Fan Chou and others were promoted to General Zhonglang...

For a time, all the Xiliang soldiers were promoted to the third level, and everyone was very happy.

However, the shortcomings of these Xiliang soldiers were also exposed. Because they were coalition forces, after completing the big goal of conquering Chang'an, they lost the direction to move forward and began to quarrel with each other over property or territory.

Although Hu Zhen led a group of people to the west, Li Jue, Guo Bang, Fan Chou, Li Meng, Wang Fang and others who stayed in Chang'an were still entangled with each other.

The temporary promotion to general did not bring much satisfaction to Li Jue, Guo Si and others, and Taicang in Chang'an could not withstand the constant squandering of Xiliang soldiers...

When Hu Zhen returned with the news that Ma Teng and Han Sui were leading troops from Xiliang, Li Jue, Guo Si and others suddenly discovered that they did not have much strategic reserves in Chang'an!

In a panic, Li Jue, Guo Si and others remembered what Jia Xu had said before, and hurriedly found Han Emperor Liu Xie and asked him to sign and stamp on a large number of seals of various feudal princes, and This was used as a measure to ease relations with the princes of Shandong, so as not to fall into the difficult situation of fighting on two sides.

And sent a large number of envoys. In addition to ordering Ma Teng and Han Sui to immediately stop their march in the name of Han Emperor Liu Xie, they also sent envoys to some princes including Feiqian...

This group of carriages and horses are envoys heading to Pingyang, where Fei Qian is located.

An official got off the canopy car in front, and then walked slowly to a box car in the back, and then slightly arched his hands and said: "Mrs. Yan, this is Shaanxi and Jin, I must go north to Hedong, and say goodbye... …After hearing that Marquis Wen went to the east and the general left, I assigned twenty soldiers to accompany you to escort Madam Yan forward..."

The door curtain was opened at the carriage, and Mrs. Yan saluted inside the carriage: "Fortunately, I was saved by Mr. Pang, and I was able to avoid the danger of the sword. I will remember it for five years, and my tears are so deep that it is difficult to express in words..."

Pang Shu shook his head and said that he didn't need to worry about it. He was silent for a while and said: "Wen Hou will get rid of Dong's thieves, which will benefit the world. Now, alas... I have a lot of power, and I can only do such trivial things..."

Pang Shu was originally a servant of the minister in Chang'an. When Li Jue and Guo Si were attacking the imperial city, he accidentally met the Yan family who was fleeing, so he went into hiding. By chance, he was ordered to go to the north to protect the Hungarian general. Fei Qian passed the imperial edict and secretly took Yan out of Chang'an.

Perhaps in the eyes of some people, Lu Bu is a vulgar warrior. Although in Pang Shu's eyes, Lu Bu does not necessarily think much of Lu Bu, but Lu Bu at least did something beneficial to this big man, so his family members should not be Damaged by rioters.

Pang Shu did this not to ask Lu Bu to give him any financial reward, or to ask for help in his career. He didn't even ask for anything. He just felt that he had to do this.

This is the righteousness that Pang Shu pursues in his heart.

Watching the vehicle carrying Mrs. Yan go away, Pang Shu turned around and boarded the ferry boat in Shaanxi and Tianjin, slowly heading towards the north bank...
