Chapter 68 You World

Meng Sheng and others did not leave the capital of Fei for the time being, and were waiting in the Mo family's stronghold, observing the situation in the city.

With this disappointment, more and more people began to consider holding their destiny in their own hands.

More and more people who have served in the charity army have begun to gather between restaurants and street markets, and a large number of weapons are distributed through various channels.

Since Gongziluan came forward that day to express his support for the people, he has not yet appeared again. There are rumors that Gongziluan has detrimented the king, the six nobles and nobles because of his benefit to the people, and has temporarily hid in a safe place.

Although Gongzi Luan had not come forward, there were a lot of news about him or her words.

Some "rumors" about Gongziluan have gradually begun to spread among the people.

No news has been reported in the palace yet.

In a small tea pavilion near the west gate in the city, this place where the Mohist school usually teaches, gathers more and more people, but it has begun to pay no attention to whether the six kings and ministers can accept the change.

A group of people holding swords or muskets gathered here, all kinds of people listening to someone saying something.

The man standing on the high ground said, "Although there are rumors that if Gongzi Luan can get the throne, he will definitely change, but... I don't believe it. He said this today, but I am afraid that it will change tomorrow. Even if he does not change, if it is our descendants in the future, who can guarantee that the monarchs of their time will not be tyrannical?"

The news that Gongzi Luan would have changed if he was the king these days has spread throughout the capital of Fei Kingdom. That day, Ji Sunluan's previous performance in the palace also attracted the attention and support of many people. This rumor that came from some unknown place was becoming more and more prosperous, and Ji Sunluan didn't know where he was and did not come forward to tell the people whether he had said it or not, which made the people think they must have said it.

Although the Mohist school has been promoting words like "no matter whether a person is old or young, no matter how noble or low is, no matter how noble or low is," the difference between nobility and low is under hundreds of years of rules has become a custom.

The people of China can interfere in national affairs, but so far there has never been a situation where civilians have taken over the throne. Even if they drive away the monarch and kill the monarch, they will still select a successor from the palace.

This rule cannot be changed within one or two days. Perhaps it must be a fierce and bloody storm.

Under the wooden platform, Kui waved her fists and shouted, "The princes and nobles are simply unreliable. Letting them give in to profits and enrich the people is like persuading tigers not to eat meat and gadflies not to suck blood."

"Young Ziluan said it well today, what should I do if it changes tomorrow? If I want to say, just follow the rules of the Mohist family, we must formulate laws to clarify how to collect taxes and how to serve, so as to constrain for the future!"

"The law is the will of the people, and the people are the basis of the country. The king should follow it! The princes and nobles will say it nicely when they seize power in a coup, but there are many nobles in the world who seize power, and how many people are truly doing the policy of benefiting the people?"

"I think it should be like the Song State, when the people discuss politics and elect as representatives, the monarch must also comply with the laws..."

After he finished speaking, some people applauded, but some people laughed.

Ximen Tu said sternly: "Princes and nobles... why should they be monarchs? Why do they have to have a monarch?"

"Since the Mo family said that people are ministers of the Emperor of Heaven. In ancient times, wise men were chosen as emperors. These princes and nobles were just wise men in ancient times. They were no different from us, but they were even more wise."

"The purpose of choosing a wise man is to make people profit. So, for those who want to make people profit, why must there be a monarch? I even think that even monarchs and ministers do not need it!"

"In the past, Lao Dan once said that he was willing to forgive the world, but he did not hear about governing the world! The more he was governed, the more chaotic the world!"

"The Mohist school said that benevolence is for self-interest, and in ancient times, people were for self-interest, so they chose wise men as emperor..."

"So from this we can see that human nature is instinct for selfishness, and in addition to selfishness, we also know very clearly how to seek profit. Otherwise, how could we choose a wise man as the emperor in ancient times?"

"Anyone with a monarch and a minister will have noble and humbleness! In my opinion, there should be no monarch, no minister, no order, and everything follows the nature of an individual."

"The Mohist school said that it is for the benefit of the world, so it needs synonyms. If the synonyms are in accordance with laws, it means that it does not believe in human nature."

"The more the world is, the more chaotic it becomes. These messy laws make the people suffer. Since people can choose the most beneficial righteousness to everyone in ancient times, why can't we believe that as long as people do according to their nature, the world can be ruled with great power?"

"If the world wants to be governed by great governance, it is necessary to follow nature. There are no rules and regulations that make everyone do things according to their own nature, and then the world will be governed by great governance."

"The Mo family also said that we should follow the will of heaven and pursue the way of heaven, and use this as a guide to benefit the world. But the way of heaven is there, and it is on everyone. This clearly requires everyone to do anything freely and follow their own nature, then that is, to follow the way of heaven."

"The Mohist family needs to have an organization and a decree, but it also says that this is in line with the will of heaven and human nature to benefit the world. Isn't this like saying: A wheat plant has obviously grown in a place with abundant water and fertilizer, but the Mohist family wants to move the wheat into a place with abundant water and fertilizer and abundant sunshine?"
