Chapter 65 The Dye Vat
The eve of turmoil was chaotic.
It was like the darkness before dawn, no moon or sun, and it was pitch black, everything became unrecognizable, and no one could clearly distinguish it.
Perhaps the executioner who proposed to slaughter the people the day before, but the next day he turned into a pioneer in seeking profit for the people.
If this was just a coup, it would be normal for the alliance between nobles to join forces, just as Taizhu Tiao rebelled during the Song State coup that year, so that the winner of the coup became the Duke of Song.
For example, Zheyangzi, Ji Sunluan, who was kept in the dark, the actions of these people are indispensable factors in a coup.
The Mohist school is a virtuous person, which is one of the major core theories of the Mohist school.
But before Shi appeared in this world, agricultural and technological changes began to be carried out in Sishang. The Mohist school used most of the monopoly technical income of the workshop to start education, and sent a large number of people who received basic education to Sishang Village Club in a forced manner. Who can become a talented person?
At the very least, only a nobleman can become a talented person.
Because reading and literacy requires a certain amount of propriety. Without wealth, bloodline, or fief, it is very unlikely that it will become a "virtuous" talent.
People like Zheyangzi can become "talents" because the Mohist school talks about: "Not righteousness is not rich, and no righteousness is not expensive." The Mohist school also said that in ancient times, ten people have ten righteousness, and hundreds of people have hundreds of righteousness. This wealth and honor are related to righteousness, but this righteousness is not fixed.
The Mohist family spent a lot of money on Si and lie dormant for a lot of time, just to make the word "super virtuous" become the real "super virtuous". Otherwise, it would be just a continuation of the theory of bloodline - farmers are not unvirtuous, but do not have money and enough time to study, so how can they be virtuous?
Without the more than ten years of dormant and forbearing education of Si Shang, and without the years of opening up the military camps of the Yishi Army, Fei Guo’s affairs today would not have been able to escape the core of a coup.
However, the Shangxian of the Mohist family provided a "righteous" for such a coup. In the end, the "sages" who came to power were still nobles, because only they could obtain enough knowledge.
But this time, unlike in the past, the difference lies in the Chinese people waiting for news in front of the palace gate.
This is the first time in the world that the Chinese people have taken the initiative to pursue their own interests, because those wearing short brown clothes holding sweet potatoes and potatoes in their hands stood in front of the palace door, so all this became different and no longer a coup.
When Ji Sunluan was unpopular, he was half-voluntarily and half-tempted to change his economic class, and Wei Rang planned how to buy weapons and launch a coup.
When an old aristocratic ambitious man like Zheyangzi was able to ride others without being ridden by others, he was preparing to transform himself into a flag bearer who was seeking profit for the people and ponder the details from an executioner who was willing to spend a few days ago, who was experiencing the blood of the country for one day.
When Fei Jun hesitated whether to launch a "holy war" against the Mohist school and maintain the etiquette system, he was worried that the nobles would oppose the attacks of the Mohist school.
When the nobles of Fei Kingdom believed that this matter could be vague by "the law has no fault in the past and the etiquette is indecent. The ancient system is like this and cannot be changed; the etiquette and law are of no abolition" to swear the people of the country.
The real power of this change was silent before the palace, and it was silent for too long that the nobles who were good at coups had forgotten their existence.
The nobles always felt that the people could use it, but they could not rely on it. So they turned their hands to make the clouds and rain, and they killed the regicide one after another, and the coups kept changing the soup without changing the medicine.
But this time, some of these silent people decided to change the soup and the medicine.
So the incident of Fei Guoguo was very different from those in the past.
Among the crowd gathered in front of the palace gate, there was such an ordinary person.
In his thirties, he has a square face, black face, short brown, straw sandals, and his forehead is covered with wrinkles left by the sun that moistens everything.
Generally speaking, the people gathered in front of the palace gate are like this.
Perhaps this person is called Kui, Kui of Kui, which is a vegetable that farmers often use to replace insufficient corn and is also a common name among farmers.
Or because of the local language, because of the lack of surname, people occasionally often call it Akui.
At this time, Kui was holding a black sweet potato-based steamed bun in her hand, chewing it while cursing to the people next to her: "I think the king has no intention of change, and even if he gave birth, it was not so slow. My wife was pulled out while she was doing her job. How many days have they been?"
"I asked me to say that Xu Ruo said it well, but it was unreasonable. Didn't the Mohist school be reasonable and not polite? I don't see Xu Ruo's reason clearly, and it's not as clear as our representatives of the company when we were a righteous teacher."
"Believe in the king? Humph... It's better to believe that tigers do not eat people, evil wolves do not eat meat, dogs do not eat shit, and cows do not eat grass!"
The vulgar words of the mouth did not affect Aoi's appetite. The black sweet potato noodles steamed bun tasted a little bitter and was not very delicious, but it was better than his name Aoi.
Many years ago, sweet potatoes and potatoes were introduced to Feiguo and became an important grain for the wasteland. If you want to eat sweet potatoes like grain, you have to dry sweet potatoes. This dried sweet potato is not the bright yellow one that is dried after being cooked. Instead, it is dried when raw and then crushed into powder to store. It will become moldy when it rains slightly, and then it will smell bitter on the tip of the tongue that the nobles are difficult to swallow.
The existence of this food allows Aoi to stand here now, otherwise he would have chosen to escape long ago.
Nowadays, those words that were cursing in their mouths, and some people who knew him in their early years, may remember the words that Aoi often said many years ago, but they are completely different from these.
Many years ago, when the name and morality of the Mohist family had not yet been spread to Feiguo, Kui always said something that made people "respectful" when they saw people.
At that time, he would tell others that he was also a descendant of Bo Qin, and he was all the same ancestors as the six kings. There was no such word as the original family at this time, but the general meaning was not bad.
Bo Qin was descended from Duke Zhou and the nephew of King Wu. Ji You was born to Wen Jiang. Although Wen Jiang and his brother were adulterers, it is well known to everyone in the country, there is no evidence that Ji You was the seed of Duke of Qi.
Furthermore, it doesn’t matter who has a seed, but it’s important to recognize who is a father under the patriarchal system. It’s like the concubine Tian’s concubine who is a guest who keeps a seed, but these sons will not look for their own fathers but will only recognize the law-based father under the patriarchal law. Therefore, “superhero” like Kui said that he and the king are the family, which is not bad.
At this time, there were countless generations since Bo Qin. Under the patriarchal feudal division, the prince gave birth to a doctor, the doctor gave birth to a concubine's son, and the concubine's son who was born to a scholar was the common people.
At that time, Aoi's words were often admired. What kind of person are the nobles? Naturally, they would not lower their identities and slapped Kui and asked if you are worthy of Ji's surname?
At that time, Kui often told stories about Bo Qin's supposer. Whenever he talked about it, his face was radiant as if he had drunk sour wine. In short, it sounded like his ancestor.
If you tell too many stories like this, you will get tired of listening to them, and no one will listen to them over time.
A few years ago, after the Battle of Hanshui, it was not up to the attack on the Tongmeng Alliance, and Fei Guo also wanted to train a righteous teacher.
This person in charge of military service did not exempt Kui from labor service after being Boqin. Kui cursed and went to the Yishishi to serve, and only cursed the ancestors of those who asked him to serve.
When he arrived at the Yishi, Kui thought it was a labourer, but he didn't expect that he would eat food first, soap and wash his face, and gave him clothes to do military tuition. The Soldiers Committee was in charge of food subsidies. Then he learned to read, write, learn a few "idioms", learn how to plant reasonably, learn how to weave reed mats from his partners, and repaid the loan with the member of the Yishi, he got two iron sickles, a shovel, an iron plow, and many seeds of sweet potatoes, potatoes, and carrots.
The officers and soldiers in the charity division were equal and there was little corporal punishment. Kui was dealt with again and again, but was punished for three days of squatting and closing in, and picked up manure for ten days for the nearby villages and communities.
That punishment was in the third year of his entry into the charity master, which means he could immediately retire and go home to take away the food and vegetable funds he had accumulated on weekdays, and borrow an iron plow with his neighbors.
Things are not a big deal. It was just a neighbor who served with him once joked, saying, "You used to say that you were a descendant of Boqin and were the same ancestor as the king. Why didn't you even give you a bone when the king was eating? You are his relative, why didn't you eat well as his dog?"
This book is also something that Yishi often said, or the tasks represented by the company and the content of Xuanyi every Xun, which attracted laughter from people in the company.
Youdao is to hit someone but not the face. If someone else is doing this, he might smile shyly. But Kui has served in the charity teacher for two or three years. Whenever he recalls the "stupid words" he said in the past, he will blush himself, wishing he had never said those words that made him feel disgusted before.
He heard his neighbors laugh at him for thinking he was a "scar of shame". His face turned red, but he did not scold him. He relied on his ability to train a righteous teacher for two years and then took action.
As a result, the company commander punched him open. After squatting for a few days, he didn't even say anything, but he had to pick up the feces to reflect.
Fortunately, after returning, Lian Deputy gave him a sentence, which was exactly "knowing shame, then being brave." Lian Deputy also told him: "Knowing the shame of the past is a good thing, which means that you can tell what glory is and what shame is, and you will not do things that make you feel ashamed in the future. What is scary is not knowing shame, but being proud of not being ashamed."
Others also talk about shame and courage, while the Mohist school also talks about shame and courage. The only difference lies in what shame is and what courage is. This is the key, and this is the important factor in why there are representatives in the righteous teacher.
After three or four years of service, I went home and wanted to live a good life but increased taxes. Most of the wheat flour I planted was paid taxes and worked hard, but I could only eat dried sweet potatoes. The man slapped him in another way.
