Chapter 263 The public opinion of the nobles, business, government and the people (7)
The Mohist family wanted a lot of things, but they might not be able to get them at this time.
The rules of the Zhou emperor had broken themselves in the matter of the three families' titles of marquis more than a year ago. The new rules have not been established yet, and the whole world is in chaos.
The Mohist school took advantage of an old rule and a new rule.
Before the Tian family replaced Qi, the Sicheng Emperor clan did not dare to usurp the Song Dynasty.
Because before this, there were many things like regicide, but the people who came to power were still from the public clans. This is the rule that the world already has.
Mr. Song, whose neck was broken, was killed for playing with other people's mother... Although these people were killed and killed, the result of the foreign surname gaining throne was the siege of the world.
The three families divided Jin, but they did not usurp Jin, but they were still a little different after all. The Tian family replaced Qi, and the other surnames took over the country, which was different.
In a truly chaotic world, the real old rules completely collapsed and will not arrive until the Tian family takes over Qi.
Now, everything designed by the Mohist people in Shangqiu has maximized the legitimacy of the old rules, and at the same time brought another attempt in the new era.
In fact, there is no difference between the founding of Zhengyuan and the founding of Song Gong, and the founding of the country, which is actually no different from the founding of Jiang Qi and the Tian family, so it is impossible for the world to be siege.
With such a great advantage, the Mo family gave up the right to be elected by the Inquiry Yuan Order, leaving the veto power for the Gentleman Yuan, which also allowed the nobles of the Song State to accept this new system.
The Sicheng Emperor clan wanted to be the chief magistrate of the Zhengyuan, so the emperor's father Yue Ling came to discuss with the Mo family and exchanged their own interests.
But he didn't think it through clearly that he forgot another card from the Mo family in this exchange.
The inquiry about the rules of the Zhengyuan has not been completely decided.
If the Mohist school suddenly incites public opinion and encourages the public to elect Mo Di as the chief of the Inquiry Yuan and govern to benefit Song, it only takes a little push to complete it.
Even though the result will be very chaotic and even if it cannot last long, this possibility is still possible until the rules are determined that non-nobles cannot ask the Minister of the Yuan Dynasty.
After hearing the Mo family's plan for the rules of the Zhengyuan, the emperor's father Yue Ling subconsciously believed that "non-nobles are not allowed to be the chief minister of the Zhengyuan." This was the final result, but ignored that this incident did not happen at this time and was not cast on the tripod to publicize the world, and was achieved by the Emperor of Heaven and the Ghosts and Gods.
Therefore, when he wanted to use Peiyi's autonomy to exchange for the Mohist family's support for their family to rise, he was wrong, and this exchange was not equivalent.
Since it is clear that we want to exchange interests, we have to mention this matter after Mo Zi finished speaking.
His meaning is actually very clear: non-nobles are not allowed to be the chief minister of the Zhengyuan to exchange for Peiyi Autonomy.
Since this is the case, the Sicheng Emperor clan was promoted to the position of the Inquiry General of the Zhengyuan, so he could only exchange it for something else.
These are two things, not one thing, so it is impossible to trade one for two.
The appropriate tips were soon received, and the emperor's father Yue Ling said in horror: "Mr. Mo Zhai, is it possible that you are choosing the emperor as a commoner who is not noble in blood?"
Mo Zhai nodded and said, "I once said that no one distinguishes between old and young, noble and humble, are all ministers of the Emperor of Heaven. Therefore, equality is the power granted by the Emperor of Heaven."
"As long as his virtue and ability can become the emperor, why should he still distinguish between old and young?"
"In the past, when I saw the King of Chu in Chu, the ministers of Chu were afraid that they would not be able to use it because I was not a nobleman. I said: If you get sick, those herbs are all cheap grass, so can the King of Chu eat this cheap grass?"
Mo Zi smiled and answered, and had already understood Shi's meaning and the idea of exchange of interests that Shi always said. At this time, he had to threaten his father Yue Ling for a few words.
It is said that, but in fact, I have made it clear to the Mo family members before that in the era when bamboo slips and silk were expensive, choosing the emperor seemed to be a choice for all people, but it was not fair, so I would choose among the nobles.
It is just a nominal equality, not a true equality.
But in Shangqiu, because of the existence of the Mo family, such things may not be just intimidation: because Mozi had a sufficient reputation, even if he was a commoner, he had a lot of chatting and laughing with princes and nobles all day long, and had the greatest reputation in Shangqiu, so it is very possible to choose him as the Chief Inspector of the Zhengyuan.
The Mohist family had reached a consensus before, giving up Shangqiu and still focused on operating Pei, Liu and Pengcheng. Therefore, Mozi could not be the ordination minister, but would leave this "position that seems to be available to the Mohist family" for the nobles to compete for, or as a political bargaining chip for "fair exchange".
The emperor's father Yue Ling knew that Mo Zi would not change the core, and he did not expect to convince him, and he did not dare to say anything like status and bloodline at this time.
Shi added from the side: "The giant has always believed that if Ling Yin can understand the ambitions of heaven, he can make a country strong."
The emperor's father Yue Ling was even more panicked, and he felt that the meaning of this sentence was to say... The Mo family wanted to promote Mo Di to rule the Song State.
Just such a light sentence has already made sweat seep from the forehead of the Emperor's Father Yue Ling.
He only felt that he had made great calculations, but he never expected that the rules promoted by the Mohist school were not sure. It seemed that the Mohist school was ready to change the rules.
If they had said it earlier, I was afraid that the nobles would immediately give up their previous differences and unite to resist this possibility.
But now, it is only a few days before the first meeting of the Inquiry Yuan, and the rules rumored in the market are acceptable to the nobles.
During this period, part of the energy of the nobles wasted by the Mohist family during the funeral ceremony, while the other part was thinking about how to seize more of their own faction after the establishment of the Zhengyuan.
Now that the propaganda of the Mohist family has suddenly changed, the emperor's father Yue Ling didn't expect: If the identity restrictions are relaxed, in Shangqiu, who is more famous than the Mohist master?
Not to mention defending the city, nor to capture the King of Chu to form an alliance. It was just the development of Pei County, various means of farming, and the righteous acts that were previously operated... no one can argue.
When the emperor's father Yue Ling was thinking about whether he would go back and discuss opposition with his father, he changed his mind and said, "It's just that this matter still needs to be discussed. The Song Dynasty is thousands of miles away, and the Zhengyuan can only control several towns such as Shangqiu."
"If all the people in the world are ministers of the Emperor of Heaven, then the 30,000 households in Li Shangqiu seem to be no different from the 30,000 households in Li Peiliu and others..."
After a little bit of whisper, Mozi also said, "It's true that this is the truth. All the people in the world are ministers of the Emperor of Heaven. Then the 30,000 in Shangqiu and the 30,000 in Peiliu are equal."
The emperor's father Yue Ling is also a smart person. He can't hear the meaning of this. He cursed in his heart, but smiled on his face and said, "That's the reason."
The emperor's father Yue Ling thought to himself, what is the reason? I am afraid that this principle means: you have to agree to Peiyi's request, so that the Mo family will have the opportunity to continue to practice righteousness in Peiyi, rather than participate in Shangqiu affairs, and your Sicheng Emperor clan will have the opportunity to become the chief minister of the founding of the Zhengyuan.
As for whether you can get to power, that is another matter, and whether you are qualified to get to power is another matter.
Since he said this, he also agreed to the exchange between the Mo family, and knew that he could not argue or change it. He knew in his heart that he was afraid that the Mo family would have other conditions.
And this condition is to exchange for the real exchange that supports the Sicheng Emperor clan to rise to power.
Mo Zi glanced at the emperor's father Yue Ling, and then looked at Shi. He was very impressed by this old and closed disciple. He used the incitement advantages of Xuanyi's tribe in Shangqiu to gain more exchangeable things for the Mo family.
In fact, even if Mo Zhai was really asked to be the chief minister of the State Council, the Mo family would not agree. However, the emperor's father Yue Ling did not know the content of the Mo family meeting, so he had to be afraid that this would happen.
Mo Zi said to the emperor's father Yue Ling: "Inquiry about the ruling of the Zhengyuan Yuan is the ruler. If the ruler is the country and the public, the matter of the war cannot be ignored. The long-term sacrifice of the ancestral temple cannot be ignored."
"Although the Song Dynasty is thousands of miles away, there are three Jins in the north and Xiongchu in the south, and Qi and Yue in the west. This is a place of battles."
"If you cannot make a long-term plan for Song, you cannot become the chief minister of the Senate Yuan and rule."
Since the emperor's father Yue Ling received the reply that the Mo family could retreat but not give Ling Yin the answer, he had to praise: "That's the reason."
"Fortunately, the Mo family guarded Shangqiu this time, and the world was shocked, so that the warlike king and the country with wars could stop the war. Otherwise, Shangqiu would not know how many wars would be experienced in the future."
"This is all due to the power of the Mohist school. This is something that needs to be remembered and it is also the reason why I respect you."
Mozi knew that there was something wrong with this, and it was impossible for the emperor's father Yue Ling to land the pit that he had dug in advance, so he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Although the Heavenly Emperor and the Ghosts and Gods noticed the alliance, many princes and nobles did not abide by it, so that their descendants were suffering from disaster."
"In the past, when the Shangqiu Gate stopped war twice, was the world stable? Although there were rebellions between the Six Lords of Jin and the CPC in danger of destroying the country, the kings still would not abide by the covenant known to the Emperor of Heaven and the Ghosts and Gods."
"Everything is planned, and if it is not planned, it will be abandoned. This cannot be ignored. If it is not noticed, the people, the country, and the ancestral temples of the Song Dynasty are all in danger."
The emperor's father Yue Ling thought about it for a while, as if he understood Mo Zi's implicit meaning, but he was afraid that the next thing would be a real exchange of interests.
He is not afraid of the Mohist school's content on exchange of interests. He has asked for a lot of money to pay it back locally, and he can still regress and argue with each other. In any case, he can negotiate the results.
What he is afraid of now is that the other nobles know the conditions proposed by the Mo family earlier than him, so that they can reach a secret agreement with the Mo family first, and then their family will be passive.
So he bowed to Mozi and said, "I have read your article. You said that you have a will like a craftsman with rules. All things can be attributed to the rationality of a will of heaven, and the result of knowledge can be learned and inherited."
"Your disciple also said that human knowledge comes from the gift of the heavenly ghost and exists in everyone's mind. You need to learn as a key to open such a treasure house."
