Chapter 269 Prince Ben Zheng Mi Bing Yao (5)
The Fifty-fourth Defenders don’t know much about the ruler of Zheng State Si Ziyang, but they know that since Duke Mu, the seven sons of Duke Mu were divided into seven clans, collectively known as Qi Mu, just like the six ministers of Jin, who were in power, but they were different from Jin State.
These seven families were after Duke Zheng, so it was more like the situation in the State of Song. The family separated from the Duke and gradually took power.
Zheng Gong had little real power, and he was in power as Ziyang, one of the seven Muslims. The two men fought openly and secretly.
Liezi lived in Zhengdu all year round. He knew the situation in Zheng State and asked for advice again when he debated for fifty-four.
Liezi smiled and said, "In the past, someone told Si Ziyang that Lie Yuko is a talented man, but he is in poverty. This is your opportunity to treat the wise man well as a ruler. So he sent someone directly to give me a lot of pearls and jade food, but I refused."
"My wife sighed and said why she was so miserable? All the people in the world have wealth and honor, but she will suffer with me."
"I said, Sizi** didn't know me at first. He didn't send anyone to find out if I was wise."
"He can support me today just because others say I am wise; if someone says I am guilty tomorrow, will he come and kill me directly?"
"Besides, if he takes other people's things, if he treats me with useful things, I will not die for him. But he is originally a person who is unjust. If I die for someone who is unjust, it will still be unjust. So I did not accept his things and also believed that he was an unjust."
"Be good at buying people's hearts, but not seeking true virtues; believing in other people's words, and not making clear. Such a person is in danger of rule, Zheng State is in danger."
Liezi always had a calm attitude from beginning to end. This is his three views and his way of dealing with the world.
His clothes were no better than those Mohist families who suffered greatly. Not only did his wife ask me why Wen Dao lived a poor life, but some disciples also asked him.
Liezi's knowledge is the opposite of the Mohist school.
From the view of the universe, epistemology, and then to the view of destiny, they are all the opposites.
An article "Tang Wen" triggered a debate with Shi about the world view and the geography of the world.
An article "Li Ming" triggers a debate on whether destiny exists, whether human birth, old age, sickness, death, wealth, poverty, or whether it is destined or can be changed after all.
The debate fifty-four came this time to argue about these issues. However, when the Prince of Chu decided to flee to Zheng, he suspended his original plan and asked Liezi about Siziyang.
After asking, Liezi said, "Why didn't your Mo family name come this time? He asked me if I wrote "Yugong Moving Mountain" and "Liming" as well as the statement, is it contradictory? I was about to argue with it."
The debate 54 said: "I want to argue, but I am also interested in debate, but now I am the Mo family's Mo debater, first Mo and then debate. I am afraid that the argument will be delayed for a few days. I need to find out what the Zheng people mean."
Liezi smiled and said, "It is a blessing for birth to heaven; it is a blessing for death to death. It is a blessing for heaven. It is a punishment for heaven; it is a punishment for death without death. It is a punishment for heaven. It is a punishment for heaven. It is a punishment for heaven. It is a punishment for heaven. It is a punishment for life and death. It is a blessing for life and death. It is impossible to live, but death or life. However, life and death are neither things nor me, and they are all fate. What is the helplessness of wisdom!"
"Life and death are destiny, and the world has its own destiny. Can this be changed by human power?"
"You Mohist family often talk about the ambition of heaven, or the ambition of heaven is measurable. Isn't this ridiculous? If it is measurable, do you know when you will die? If you know, do you know how to reverse it?"
"Ji Liang praised this as a famous doctor! So a few days later, Ji Liang's illness was cured."
"Isn't this fate?"
"Besides, life and death, and even the life and death of relatives, are all destiny."
"Wu's son from Dongmen of Wei people died, but he was not sad. He only said: I used to have no son, and I was not worried when I had no son. Now my son died, just like when I had no son, what can I worry about?"
"This is the real person who knows his fate!"
Liezi stood up, bowed to Bian Wushisi again, and said, "You Mo family! You should be like Wu from the East Gate."
"In the past, there was no military service, and the world was in chaos, and the people also came here. Now, the military service has died because of the appearance of Prince Ding. Isn't it the same as when there was no military service? What's there to worry about?"
The Fifty-four people were furious and turned their eyes away from Liezi's courtesy, and said angrily: "The Mo family is not destined! The destiny of heaven does not exist! Man conquers nature!"
"Since we are not life, we have to save the world and benefit the world! Your knowledge can cultivate yourself, but it cannot pacify the troubled times!"
"If the troubled times are peaceful, I may come to listen to your knowledge and think that the stones from other mountains are in peace. If the troubled times are uneven, I really cannot come to listen to your knowledge again!"
After saying that, he turned his straw sandals, twisted the short brown, and turned around and walked away quickly.
Liezi sang: "How can the destiny be violated? Even if you benefit the world and save the world, it is already destiny. How can the destiny be wrong? If you don't know what the destiny is, how can you know that you have reversed the destiny?"
The debater did not look back without looking back, and he wore a sword on his body, and said to himself: "Mr. I once said that the scholars and gentlemen in the world really hope to make profits for the world and eliminate harm for the world. When facing the 'destined' theory, we must try our best to refute it."
"If these words and deeds are in the world, and people will live in peace, thinking that poverty is fate and wealth is fate, and cannot be changed, then the world will be in chaos! Such remarks are the enemy of my Mo family!"
"What can I do if I win the debate? It is said that Xuanyi is for the sake of publicity rather than debate. What the Mohist school needs is Xuan, not for debate. I will not argue with him today, but only wait for the world's famous scholars to gather in the future and will refute him in front of everyone!"
"Since my words are to win, my Mo family will have to do the best to benefit the world! If the world is happy in the future, he will still be destined to heaven, so I will assassinate and kill him!"
After thinking about it, the Mo person who was walking with him said, "Let's go to Siziyang's mansion and ask for a personal visit. My Mo family should know what the Zheng people should do!"
Not long ago, when Qin Huali passed by Zheng State, he had already met Zheng Jun and the ruling Si Ziyang, and told him about the meeting of the military stop. Most of the two agreed, only saying that if the Three Jins stopped the war, they would inevitably have an alliance.
Now, there has not been any news from the Three Jin Dynasties that the Prince of Chu has already entered Zheng. The Bings Conference, which seemed to be about to succeed, is about to become a bubble again in the view of the Fifty-fourth.
…………
Xiong Ding's escape to Zheng not only caused shock in the Mo family, but also made the political situation of Zheng, which was stormy and even more strange.
The Zheng State, which once shot and injured the Zhou emperor's shoulder and dominated the Spring and Autumn Period, has now begun to decline and has long lost its power as it used to be.
The previous Zheng Jun was killed by Han Wuzi's attack on Zhengcheng, and the Chinese people made the previous Zheng Jun's younger brother the new king.
Because of this blood feud, he became accused of Han, so he had to go to Chu. In addition, the relationship between Zheng Bo and the King of Chu has always been very good.
