After returning from Dali Temple, Ouyang Xiu's sons came over to welcome his father. In fact, they also wanted to watch it in person, but his father was the defendant in the hall, so it was inappropriate for him to watch as his son.

However, every process of the case has been reported.

When Wang Ning'an untied his silk and clarified all the slander, Ouyang Xiu's mansion turned into a sea of ​​joy, which was even happier than the New Year.

Ouyang Fa also made a brazier and asked his father to walk over from above, and all bad luck disappeared from then on.

"Get out, get out of here!"

Ouyang Xiuxin said that he was caught in prison, is it necessary to do so?

He drove away his sons and then invited Wang Ning'an to the study room. After sitting down, Ouyang Xiu felt as if he was distracted and he didn't even have the strength to move his fingers.

Rumors hurt people, and it is so terrible!

The old master couldn't help but sigh.

As he was talking, Ouyang Fa ran in again.

"Dad, just now, news came that Jia Changchao went to ask His Majesty to confess his guilt... This shameless person is indeed he who harmed Dad, so the child will settle the score with him now!"

He turned around and was about to run outside.

Ouyang Xiuzhen was so angry, "I think it's not embarrassing enough. Go and study, pretend to be mute, and say one more thing, and serve the family law!"

Ouyang Fa was full of grievances and thought that he had finally washed away his grievances. Why did his father come to him? Shouldn't he settle the score with those guys who harmed others?

Wang Ning'an turned his head and smiled and said, "Okay, let me talk to Zuiweng. You all go out, don't cause trouble."

After sending out a few small ones, only Ouyang Xiu and Wang Ning'an were left.

After a long time, Wang Ning'an said, "Zuiweng, what do you think of Jia Ziming? He is so shameless. Should I find a way to ruin him?"

Ouyang Xiu smiled, stretched out his finger, and shook it.

"Erlang, you are not good at saying this, but it is not what Tsuda Xing Wang Erlang should have said."

There is also a nickname.

Wang Ning'an coughed awkwardly and said hurriedly: "Drunk, in my opinion, it may not be done by Jia Ziming."

"Yeah." Ouyang Xiu nodded, "In this case, Fang Kunshan was pushed to the front line by the Qian family, Qian family was pushed to the front line by the Zhang family, and Zhang family was pushed to the front line by Jiang Zhiqi... Who is behind Jiang Zhiqi? Is it Jia Changchao? Is there anyone behind Jia Changchao? It's hard to say all!"

It is said that one learns from one’s mistakes and gains wisdom. Obviously, Zuiweng’s level is also improving rapidly.

Why is this complicated situation so complicated?

"I have moved the rule of three generations and the foundation of Confucianism for thousands of years. From top to bottom, Jia Changchao, Jiang Zhiqi, Liu Hui... all kinds of people want to kill me. Regardless of whether it was done by Jia Changchao or not, it would be useless to get rid of Jia Changchao. Instead, it would form more hatred and put me in danger. Erlang, what do you think of me?"

Wang Ning'an smiled, and smiled from the bottom of his heart.

In fact, what he was most worried about was Ouyang Xiu's anger, his crazy revenge, and his lack of stability in advance and retreat. In that case, it would be of no help to the overall situation.

However, Ouyang Xiu was a victim and suffered a great humiliation. It was reasonable for him to take revenge, and Wang Ning'an couldn't even say anything.

So Wang Ning'an was anxious to know Ouyang Xiu's thoughts, and he felt much more relieved when he saw the old master like this.

"Zuiweng, let's analyze the situation in front of you, why are you framed?"

"Yes, don't be afraid of death, what I'm afraid of is that I don't know how to die." Ouyang Xiu tried hard to straighten his body, took a deep breath, and then slowly said: "I thought it was easy to improve Confucianism. After all, "The Bamboo Anniversary" was there, which was irrefutable. But now it seems that I underestimated this matter and underestimated the traditions for thousands of years!"

Ouyang Xiu frowned, and his eyes were shining with light. It was funny to say that in the lobby, what he thought of was not a case, but a lot of messy things. When he came out, facing the setting sun, the fiery red clouds. Ouyang Xiu suddenly woke up at that moment. He found the root of his troubles. After years of confusion solved, the old master seemed very excited, and he felt happy that he could die in the morning.

"Erlang, why do you say they slandered me for having an affair with Zhang?"

"To destroy Mr.'s reputation."

"Then why do you want to destroy my husband's reputation?"

"Because in that case, what you say will be untrustworthy, and they can take advantage of the situation, add fuel to the fire, distort the facts, and continue to get along..."

"Well said!"

Ouyang Xiu smiled and said, "Then I asked again, why did my moral reputation be ruined and what I said was untrustworthy? The ancients also said that if I don't lose my words, why would it not work if I come to me?"

Wang Ning'an smiled and said, "The drunk man must have a great opinion, I will listen carefully!"

"Hehe, Erlang, I have thought about some of the experiences I have learned over the days. Please consider them with me."

...

As we all know, Confucius lived in a chaotic world where rituals and music were broken. In the era when he lived, he had never experienced burning books and burying scholars, and obviously retained more ancient documents.

If the things in "Bamboo Anniversary" are true, Confucius should know them all.

But what is strange is that Confucius tried hard to modify ancient history, constantly beautify the emperor, fabricate abdication, and fabricate the myth of the mutual accompaniment of the king and the ministers, saying that the people are healthy and the people are prosperous. The rule of the three generations is a model for later generations...

Obviously, there are too many problems in the governance of the Three Dynasties that cannot stand scrutiny.

Why did Master Confucius have to fabricate something that does not exist?

This involves Confucius' thoughts and the logical core of Confucian discourse power.

First of all, Confucius was an active person who entered the world. Although he encountered many walls, Confucius hoped to make the world better. He prescribed a prescription for this chaotic world, that is morality.

When you read the Analects of Confucius, you will find that Confucius talked about morality from beginning to end, how to be a person with moral integrity.

Confucius believed that everyone is a gentleman and pays attention to benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom. There will be no chaos in the world and everything will be in order.

Having an idea and having to convince others, this involves the issue of how to build a voice.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, various vassal states were constantly warring, which was comparable to wisdom, power and insidiousness. Obviously, no country became strong by virtue of morality, and the only Duke Xiang of Song became a joke for the ages.

Confucius looked around and saw that no country could be used as an example. In desperation, Confucius could only look for the rule of the world, the wise king from the past history, and then constantly beautify them.

The Spring and Autumn Brushwork is a taboo for the respected one, this set of things.

He just attributed the success of a wise king to his personal morality, and then let other kings follow his example.

If you are interested, go through "Mencius" again, and this book will bring this set of things to the extreme.

Master Meng is worthy of being Confucius' heir. When he met this prince and that king, he was in that style. How did the former king perform the king's way, how the world was ruled, how kind and kind were the ancient kings... If they did well, they would inherit the will of the former kings. If they did not do well, then Mencius said that they would learn from the former kings...

It seems that this set is impeccable, but in fact there is a very sinister scam. As a king, he inherited the foundation of his ancestors, so he can't say bad things about his ancestors, right?

As long as you admit that your ancestors are perfect and morally perfect, you will fall into the trap of Master Meng and can only be taught a lesson by the old man like his grandson.

But the question is whether the ancestor successfully started his business because of good morals?

Obviously not!

Which one starts from scratch is not a lot of problems.

Any deception, insidious fraud, and everything they can do... If they are honest and follow the rules, they will not be able to achieve hegemony!

After figuring this, I figured out why Confucius and Meng were busy until they were eighty years old, and no one used them!

Because during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, many ancient documents were retained, and their statements were obviously loopholes. All the monarchs were pragmatic, so of course they would not accept them.

Next, something even more amusing and terrifying happened.

Qin Shihuang, who had been scolded by Confucianism for two thousand years, helped Confucianism a lot!

Qin Shihuang burned books and buried scholars, but the result was that ancient classics were lost in large quantities. No one could figure out what the three generations were like... This time, Confucian scholars fully utilized their imagination, constantly beautified, exhausted all their power, and created an ideal country.

In this ideal country, Confucianism can fill in it at will.

The king is kind and wise, and has self-knowledge, so he abdicated.

Ministers were loyal and capable, so Yi Yin exiled the emperor but did not proclaim himself king.

There are also Duke Zhou who is dedicated to assisting his nephew, the loyal and brave general, and the rich and healthy people... Except for the three unlucky guys, Jie of Xia, Zhou of Shang, and You of Zhou of Zhou, they are all good people.

Moreover, in order to alleviate the sins of the three kings who lost their country, they also blamed the women, turning them into disasters of the country.

After thousands of years of indoctrination, Confucianism has finally established a relatively complete theoretical system.

As ancient history faded away, no one questioned their words. Gradually, the rule of the three generations and moral rule of the country became the golden rule.

If nothing unexpected happens, with the emergence of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism, Confucianism will eventually complete the unification of ideas.

But after all, scams are scams. The rule of the three generations is false, and Confucianism based on falsehood is also false. As for the essence of Confucianism, Neo-Confucianism, is the most poisonous fruit born from this tree!

As mentioned earlier, Confucius' basis of argument is moral determinism.

Under the theory of moral determinism, all the events are created by wise rulers and famous ministers. When the court selects officials, it is necessary to choose those with strong moral character. Virtue comes first.

It even develops to the point where as long as it is morally invincible, it can do anything!

It really doesn't work, there are sweet rains from the sky, and carp emerge from the ice hole...

As this set of theories gradually goes to extremes, things like freezing to death are small, things like losing one's integrity are big, things like maintaining the laws of nature, destroying human desires, and chastity archways that fill the world become natural things.

But obviously, this set of moral determinism has fatal weaknesses!
