People in the Republic of China start by building a top power

Chapter 532

Countless literary disciples came with various banners and slogans.

“Cultivating My Tradition and Restoring Our Heritage”

“Everyone gathers to revive the cultural spirit”

“The fusion of Confucianism and Taoism, the restoration of China, and the culture of the motherland for thousands of generations.”

The above slogans have long been inserted on both sides of the West Lake.

Whenever a breeze blows, the banners with the slogan will make a slight noise.

At this time, many people can’t help but look at these banners, and then look up at everyone in the middle of the West Lake.

Everyone’s face is full of hope, and everyone is eager for this cultural exchange to collide with a new spark.

And reporters from all over the shore, in Hangzhou, and in Jinling, Shanghai, and Jiangnan.

There are even countless reporters from Shandong, Henan, and Beiping in the north, all of them holding pen and paper and cameras, recording the grand occasion of the scene non-stop.

The exchange of Confucianism and Taoism has been unseen in the past three hundred years. Of course, newspapers in various places will not miss this event.

Therefore, they have sent reporters to record and interview.

If someone counts the past carefully, they will find that among the crowd present today, there are hundreds of reporters alone!

It can be said that reporters from all over the country are here!

This is only a unilateral manifestation of this West Lake event.On both sides of the West Lake today, countless banners and lanterns are hung on the willow branches.

Around these banners, there are rows of Zhao family members, children and so on.

The Zhao family in Hangzhou is also a representative of the literary family. Since this poetry meeting is held on the West Lake side, the Zhao family in Hangzhou will naturally play a role in organizing this meeting.

In order to make this event a success, Zhao Zhen started preparations a few days ago.

Before the grand event started today, he ordered the Zhao family to line up on the banks of the West Lake, holding up countless banners, and hanging flags on the willow trees on the bank.

It was the first month of the month, and the willow trees on the banks of the West Lake had not turned green yet, but the countless flying banners and flags had already given the dry willows a different kind of vitality.

On the top of the big trees, although there are no green branches flying, countless flags and banners are enough to serve as their branches and leaves.

Many literati and Taoist disciples who came here could not help but admire the countless banners and banners.

It is conceivable that today the Zhao family has put a lot of effort into organizing the event here.

And just now, representatives of both Confucianism and Taoism have already attended the meeting.

In the past half an hour, the representatives of the two groups made a clear exposition on the ideological and profound meanings of their respective factions.

At the same time, countless people came from all over the lake.

They were either too far away from Hangzhou, or they had a temporary business, and they could not come to the shore of the West Lake at the first time to participate in this grand event. At this time, they all looked in a hurry and wanted to enter the venue to watch.

However, when these latecomers arrived, they were stunned by the scene.

I saw the originally wide shore of the West Lake, where is there any place to stay at this time!

Every place where people can stand is occupied by countless people who have come early, and every place that can get in is occupied by countless slogans and banners!

A scholar from the north came from his hometown. Due to the late departure time, the conference had already started when he arrived here.

When he hurried to the shore, the situation in front of him almost made him freeze in place.

The entire West Lake has been surrounded by three floors and three floors. The literati stood at the outermost edge of the crowd, and he couldn’t even see the vast West Lake, but could only see the endless sea of ​​people!

He wanted to try to squeeze in, but the crowd here is like ants crowded together, not to mention squeezing people in, it’s almost impossible to insert a needle!

“It’s late, it’s late! I regret not being able to see everyone’s demeanor with my own eyes!”

In desperation, the reader had no choice but to sigh helplessly.

But even so, he still did not leave.

This event is a once-in-a-lifetime event. Even if I can’t go inside to watch it, it’s good to be able to hear the news from the crowd on the outside.

143

Countless people collide with each other, and he can benefit a lot with just a little bit of wind.

Of course, he’s not the only one who thinks this way.

After him and before, thousands of people who came here late at night and couldn’t squeeze into the inner circle all held a similar mentality.

Because of this, with the cultural exchange on the lake, the crowds on both sides of the West Lake not only did not decrease, but spread out all the way along the periphery, once extending to the street a thousand meters away!

This is the grand occasion of this West Lake Poetry Festival.

For the countless people who come here, it is almost the only chance in this life to be able to see Shao Wen and others in the literary world, as well as the demeanor of the Taoist priests.

If you miss this time, you may never have it again.

So everyone would rather wait here than leave easily.

And when more and more people gathered around the lake, on the platform in the center of the lake, the exchanges between everyone were far from over.

Previously, Shao Wen, Daoist Fuqing and others represented Confucianism and Taoism respectively, and expounded the respective principles of Confucianism and Taoism. This conversation gave the people on the shore a new understanding of the two factions.

And now, Shao Wen and Daoist Fuqing are having a heated exchange and discussion based on the different viewpoints in the previous exposition.

Chapter 581: Confucianism and Taoism

On the platform in the lake, representatives of Confucianism and Taoism are having a heated discussion on the previous ideological elaboration.

Shao Wen and Zhao Pu have said before that, Confucianism governs the country and the world, and treats the people pay attention to benevolence and righteousness.

At this time, Shao Wen continued to add: “In Confucianism, we not only pay attention to benevolence and righteousness, but also pay attention to ethical principles. Father, son and brother, wife, child, mother and daughter, have their own rules.

The ceremony cannot be abandoned, and the festival cannot be destroyed. Anyone who corrupts the principles of normal human relations, who abolishes rituals and festivals, should be severely punished! ”

“Extremely!”

Behind Zhao Pu, a group of literati representatives agreed.

Before the previous dynasties, the Confucian ethical guidelines had always been the most important thing for the rulers of all dynasties.

In the course of thousands of years of development, this ethical principle has always existed. Although it has undergone many changes, the core idea has not changed.

To put it bluntly, it is a matter of etiquette.

Until now, with the changes of the times and the continuous progress of civilization and technology, many of the ethical guidelines in Confucianism have long been inapplicable.

But the word etiquette has always been valued by scholars and people of status.

Taoists have a similar view on this.

The Taoist priest Fuqing also said before that although Taoism advocates that Taoism is natural and does nothing to govern, everything must be done within the scope of the rules.

This point is essentially the same as the point of view of “do what you want without breaking the rules” put forward by the ancestors of Confucianism.

So on this point, there is not much difference between the two.

After listening to Shao Wen’s elaboration on this aspect, Daoist Master Yi Fuqing and the other representatives of Taoism all nodded.

Daoist Master Shanyang of Kunming Jindian said: “What you said, sir, is in line with our philosophy.

You Confucian immortals once said, “If you don’t follow the rules, you can’t make a circle”, and IThe ancestors of Taoism also taught me and other children that when we go with the flow, we should not break away from the shackles of the rules.

On this point, our two ancestors have already reached a consensus~々. ”

“Well, good.”

At this point in the exchange, many representatives of Confucianism and Taoism agreed very much.

Above the West Lake, there is a harmonious atmosphere.

But this is only for the internal governance of the country and the management of the people. In terms of external means, Confucianism and Taoism have many different viewpoints.

From this point of view, the ideological collision of this exchange meeting has not officially begun!

And since we talked about internal thinking, external thinking will naturally not be missed.

On the Taoist side, Taoist priest Fuqing asked first.

“Mr. Fang Cai, Mr. Shao Wen once said that your Confucianism treats you with kindness and kindness to the inside, but you are bloody and strong externally. You follow the principle that people who are not my race must have different hearts. Such words are too extreme.”

“The Taoist priest forgives me for being rude. What you just said is wrong. This is the principle of my Confucianism for thousands of years. How can it be extreme!”

Behind Shao Wen, Zhao Pu waved his robe sleeves with a solemn expression.

“What the ancestors said was not my race, and their hearts must be different. It has been verified in all dynasties and dynasties. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, the northern strongholds abducted my frontier people, and the wars continued for thousands of years.

During the two Jin Sui and Tang Dynasties, and even in the two Song Dynasties, the Hu people went south, messed up my clothes, slaughtered my compatriots on my land, and made the people of all places miserable.

The Meng and Yuan Dynasties were the barbarians in the north. They relied on their savagery to oppress my people, and they even acted fiercely in various places, turning my fertile fields into pastures and enslaving my compatriots and children.

Daoist Master Fuqing, there are countless examples of this. All those who harm my people are from foreign nations. How can my Confucianism ever be extreme? ”

“What Mr. Zhao said is justified!”

Zhao Pu gave countless examples in succession, and his face was slightly resentful.

Behind him, a group of literati representatives were also full of resentment.

In the past dynasties, all the invasion of the land of China by barbarians and foreign countries has made the people’s life difficult.

Whether it is Qin and Han Dynasties, Sui and Tang Dynasties, Song and Yuan Dynasties, except for the wars that occurred in the change of dynasties, there are shadows of foreign gangs and barbarians among the other things that harm the people.

This is the truest portrayal of “not my race, its heart must be different”!

At this time, the reason why the representatives of the literary circles were angry was not for the words of Daoist Fuqing, but for the misery that the barbarians brought to the people in all dynasties and dynasties.

It is said that one hundred and no one is a scholar, but a real scholar has always regarded helping the world as the highest ideal.

Since they are representatives of the literary world, they naturally harbor the people of the country and the country, which is the most basic ideal sentiment of a qualified literati.

Thinking of the bloody slaughter of compatriots by barbarians in all dynasties and dynasties, how could these people not be filled with righteous indignation!

Seeing the resentful expressions of many literati representatives, Daoist Fuqing sighed softly.

“Infinite Heavenly Venerate!”

Daoist Master Fuqing shouted his horn, and then continued: “The Great Dao is fifty, Tianyan is four-nine, and you should escape to a chance of life.
