Struggle in the Late Ming Dynasty

What does Confucianism do? The most important thing is to provide ethical principles. The ethical principles of Confucianism are centered on filial piety, unlike the ethical principles of Western religions, which are centered on belief in God, or even Buddhism, which is centered on belief in Buddha. It is okay to criticize Confucianism, but you have to propose ethical principles that replace Confucianism and be accepted by everyone. Otherwise, Confucian ethics will disappear and other ethics will not be recognized by others, and you will become a spiritual refugee. The core ethical principles of class struggle after the founding of the People's Republic of China were abandoned after the reform and opening up, and now there are almost no commonly recognized ethical principles. \

Feel free to criticize Confucianism as much as you like. Confucianism is made up of people, and most people do not do serious things. But, but, but, don't spray Confucianism and Confucianism indiscriminately. Does Confucianism teach you to betray the country? Did you teach you to kneel down and become a slave? Did you teach you to exploit people? Did you teach you how to engage in text inquisition? Have you ever been taught to close yourself off to the country and form cliques for personal gain? Did you teach you how to frame Zhongliang? Don't use random hats. Does Confucianism not teach equality? No struggle taught? Not teaching justice? No integrity taught? Not taught kindness? Didn't teach harmony? How much of the good stuff is there in Confucianism? How many are bad? If you don't learn well, who is to blame? Have you visited the comment sections of many historical novels? Why are there so many people spraying randomly?

. China🇨🇳There are too many smart people. It's not that the Chinese are incompetent, it's just that they lack opportunities. Every capable person at the lower level is working hard! In fact, there is no difference between ancient times and modern times. The emperor or the president of the country are far away from us. After all, the county magistrate is not as good as the current one. What Chairman Mao said still makes sense. Class struggle is inevitable. Anyone who is capable doesn't want to climb up. There are so many people in China. I don't believe that we can't win the World Cup. There are more than one billion people! Choose a football team with a few IO players! Is it that difficult? Is it a conflict of interest? What is the difference from Ming Dynasty? Resources are controlled by a small number of people, without any background: no matter how smart you are, try to take advantage of other people's hands😄 Guarantee that the accident will come earlier than tomorrow.

48 Updates in one breath, OMG, the author is awesome.

I just read a book review that talks about Confucianism. In fact, who knows much about the six arts of a gentleman in Confucianism? In the Tang Dynasty and before the Tang Dynasty, the swords worn by gentlemen were more than just decorations. They were useless scholars who had no power to tie a chicken. I don't think of these scholars in the Qing Dynasty as Confucian scholars. They were just scholars, just scholars. And those who say treason, are those real Confucian scholars? The six arts of a gentleman are the true Confucian disciples

It's very well written, I hope I don't want to be a eunuch

If you use modern development to comment on ancient development, if ancient times were not lagging behind, then you are going backwards now. If you use modern thought to evaluate ancient thought, if it is better than you, then you are prodigal. You are out of touch with the times. To discuss advancement without horizontal comparison is to be a hooligan. In addition, the time we are currently standing at is not the end of humankind. From an ideological point of view, it is too early to evaluate who is advanced and who is lagging behind. The final conclusion can only be made when the coffin is closed. Comments made before that time point are meaningless.

First of all, I am a pure foreigner, I should be the fifth generation. Talk about your own thoughts (non-history major). If you are wrong, please give me some advice. Please don't criticize me. Thank you. @Eternal Demon Lord I really have to give you a thumbs up for this third grade junior high school student. Your rebuttal is well-founded. Please learn more from a certain poster. You are black just for the sake of being black. Tsk tsk, we are just ordinary people. Do you think we are so powerful and the ancients are so ignorant? This is really not necessarily the case. There will be good and bad things left by our predecessors, but there are not so many absolute things. And if you talk about Confucianism, then you have to talk about Confucius. Do you really understand the true meaning of the original text of "Repaying evil with kindness", "Being old and not dying is a thief", "Think twice before acting", "Punishment is not worthy of a doctor, and courtesy is not worthy of a common man"? Mencius said, "There are three kinds of unfilial piety, and the greatest is not having offspring." Mencius, who can write, "I want life, I want righteousness, I cannot have both, and I have to sacrifice my life for righteousness." Would someone like Mencius think this way? Look for it yourself, it can also be regarded as popular science and improve yourself. In the early Han Dynasty, the "inaction" of Lao and Zhuang was popular. It was only during the reign of Emperor Wu that Confucianism was expanded to make it easier for the rulers to manage. Neo-Confucianism in the Song and Ming dynasties was a glorious and fruitful era of Confucianism. You can listen to what is said about Neo-Confucianism in the Song and Ming dynasties on the Internet. You have to look at the pros and cons and influences. Don't blindly regard Lu Xun and Hu Shi's criticism of the "ritual (rational) education" of feudal society as Neo-Confucianism and Confucianism. "If you listen to one side, you will be dark, and if you listen to both, you will be enlightened." I don't need to say this. Finally, let me give you an example that everyone knows: "Everything in the world is not the king's soil, and the shores of the land are not the king's ministers." This sentence was said by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty. There is actually another sentence behind it, "..., The doctors are not equal, and I am the only one who is talented." It means that some people are not evenly distributed, but the work I do is obviously unevenly distributed, and I am always more than others. In general, I am very busy and very tired. Finally, I can criticize Confucius' "ritual" (because it is cumbersome 🤤), and I can also slightly like his "benevolence" (the unity of knowledge and action), but I have to admire his "teaching without discrimination", which I think is the most important and valuable.

Chapter 1: I endured it, Chapter 2: I died from the poison

Write less love! Write more about doing things!

To be honest, it is all due to the advancement of technology and industry. Otherwise, in ancient times, our group would have died of drought and starvation. We are just that kind of ant people.

Some confusion! I read in other books that scholars in the Ming Dynasty had a very high status, especially those with fame, but even their own grandparents had to be humbled and treated with caution! But the behavior of the protagonist's father in this book is worse than that of domestically violent parents in the 21st century! What kind of behavior is true in the Ming Dynasty? Ask for Baidu!

I just read a chapter, and the author seems to be worried that the heroine's writing will not satisfy everyone. In fact, there is no need to worry. Write more of various types, and there will always be one that suits your appetite. This is a good suggestion.

Huang Ming died because he represented the interests of Confucianism. No one among the Confucian disciples would object! ! ! ?

Primary school Chinese Requirements: Connect the following four sentences with related words: (1) Sister Li is paralyzed; (2) Sister Li studies tenaciously; (3) Sister Li has learned many foreign languages; (4) Sister Li learned acupuncture. (The correct answer should be: Although Sister Li was paralyzed, she studied tenaciously and not only learned many foreign languages, but also learned acupuncture.) It turned out that the writing by a group of naughty kids was too stupid. Xiaohua wrote: Although Sister Li tenaciously learned acupuncture and many foreign languages, she is still paralyzed. Xiao Liu wrote: Sister Li not only learned foreign languages, but also learned acupuncture. She studied so tenaciously that she finally became paralyzed. Xiao Ding wrote: The reason why Sister Li was paralyzed was because she studied tenaciously. Not only did she learn many foreign languages, she even learned acupuncture. Xiaoxiao wrote: Sister Li studied so tenaciously. Not only did she learn many foreign languages ​​and acupuncture, but she also learned to become paralyzed. Xiaomi wrote: Sister Li has learned many foreign languages, learned acupuncture, and is stubbornly learning to be paralyzed. The highlight is always at the end: Xiao Ming wrote: Sister Li learned many foreign languages ​​and acupuncture through tenacious study, but ended up paralyzing herself by reading a foreign language version of an acupuncture book! Don't think that I'm here to advertise. No, you can only see my books by clicking on my profile picture and my author homepage.

Those who criticize Confucianism should first read the Analects of Confucius before coming back. Do you have the right to speak if you haven't read it? Then those who say that Confucianism is a slave should know Wen Tianxiang and Lu Xiufu. Those who say that Confucianism is unhelpful to the country should know Zhang Zai and Wang Yangming. These are all late Confucianists. Let's not say that this is a minority. Let's not say whether it is really a minority. Even if it is a minority, these few are enough to hold up the sky of our Chinese nation, let alone not a minority. I have never read this book, but I heard that some people criticize Confucianism and wanted to learn from it. I have read a lot, but in fact, most of them are incomprehensible. One even said that the two Jin Dynasties also respected Confucianism (I remember that some people thought so. If I understand some history, I will naturally understand what I mean). Most people think that Confucianism just teaches you to be a good person and is of no use to the nation, country, society, work, and family (that's right). A small number of people think that Confucius and Mencius were right in the pre-Qin period, but they were completely hopeless later on (some of them). Then there are some people who think that Confucianism is the dregs of the nation and will bring harm to the ages (not just the minority but the majority). First, let's talk about Confucianism's views on the country and society, maintaining national stability, promoting clean and benevolent government, being loyal to the emperor and serving the country (people) (does anyone refute this), work and family, (no need to say more about this) patriotism, dedication, integrity, friendliness, civilization, harmony, justice, and the rule of law. If you look closely, what Confucianism advocates accounts for the majority of the twenty-four words of the mantra. The rest are factors of the times. You can't talk about equality in a feudal society. Besides, is it true that Confucianism in later generations is no longer good? Zhang Zai, some people may not have heard of it, Wang Yangming, you know it. He who promotes inner learning has fans abroad, unites knowledge and action, and develops conscience. These are all very good. Mind science and Qi science both have their merits. Later, I don't know what to say to the lofty opinions of those wise men who think that Confucianism is dregs and have no merit. How can you make sense of talking about civilization to those who purely advocate money and force? They are no different from the Japanese invaders and Nazis. This may be the bad nature of human beings. Finally, let's talk about Confucianism. Confucianism is not just about moral education, but it is even more cruel to the hopeless Confucius. Will Legalists talk to you about human relations? (Don't think it's bad to think that the principles of the law are nothing more than human feelings. Isn't the reason why human beings are human beings the softness in their hearts?)

This is one of the most uninteresting ways of writing.

What the hell is bacon? Scared to follow suit.

Titles of officials in the Ming Dynasty (2) According to the inspection envoys—Nengtai, Nasi, Lianfang, and Xisi. In the Ming Dynasty, the provincial chief executive, the Chief Envoy, had left-right and right-hand political advisors and left-right and right-hand counselors, both of whom were officials who assisted the Chief Envoy. In the early Ming Dynasty, the Chief Secretary and the Chasi had large jurisdictions and complicated affairs. The left and right political and council members of the Chief Secretary were responsible for the Qiangu of each road, which was called Fenshou Dao. This is the beginning of the Taoist title. During the reign of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, the positions of political counselors, counselors, deputy envoys, ministers, etc. Were abolished, and special guards and inspectors were set up. Many of them also had military ranks. They had jurisdiction over prefectures and prefectures, and they became senior administrators below the provincial level and above the prefecture level. Also known as "Taotai" and "Observation". Salt Transport Envoy - Salt Division. Taoist - Taoist platform, observation. Magistrate - Taishou, Taizun, Huangtang, Wuma. Tongzhi - Second Prefecture, Branch Prefecture, and Sima. Tongsuan - Biejia, Sanfu. Zhizhou - animal husbandry, governor. The same state - state driver, state Sima. State judgment - Bie Jia, State Sima. County magistrates - Mingfu, Ling, Daling, Zai, Yi Zun, Yi Zai, Yi Ling, Ling Yin, Dayin. Academic officer - instructor, school officer, academic teacher.

Inspection - arrest department, patrol, branch. Admiral - Military Gate, Titai. The general soldier - the general town, the Zhentai, and the general army. Lieutenants - Xie Zhen, Xie Tai, Xie Rong. Participate in the general - participate in the army. The status that scholars in the Ming and Qing Dynasties obtained through scientific examinations, that is, the "titles" also had different names: students were called "xiucai", and candidates were called "Xiaolian" (Xiaolian Gong was another name for candidates in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, candidates were also called Xiaolian, so Xiaolian Gong was an honorific title for candidates who had not yet entered officialdom. This name originated from the system of promoting filial piety and integrity in the Han Dynasty). "Jinshi" can be called the "secret school" for "handsome", and the first place in the first class of Jinshi, that is, the number one scholar, can be called "dianzhuan". Among the academic officers, the Imperial Academy's priest was called "Da Sicheng", Si Ye was called "Shao Sicheng", and other instructors could be called "Guangwen". Du Fu once wrote a poem: "Everyone in the first class is tired of rice and meat, and Mr. Guangwen doesn't have enough food." Of course, it is impossible to include all the nicknames of officials in the above examples, but the common nicknames are included. When the ancients called an official, they did not have to use another nickname. They could also use a formal official title or another nickname. Moreover, the names he uses are also different depending on his identity. In Lin Zexu's diary, a certain governor was called "Zhijun", a governor was called "Fujun", and an admiral was called "Tijun". As for subordinates, the governor is generally called "Dashuai", the governor is called "Zhongcheng", and the admiral is called "Junmen". It should also be pointed out that the use of nicknames to refer to each other can be popular in official circles and is also common in literati's poems and essays, but in official official documents, including official historical records, the use of nicknames is not allowed.

Very well written, good luck to the author!

Can you think about it: If there were no Confucianism, but other schools such as Mohism and Legalism took the stage, what would China be like now? Ask yourself, maybe China's territory is larger than it is now, but the most likely thing is that Tibet and Xinjiang are gone now, isn't it?

I kind of know, the books that are limited to free are basically free because not many people read them.

Speaking of Confucianism. . . Please distinguish before spraying. People in the Western Han Dynasty respected Gongyang Confucianism, and he was a Confucian with a yellow skin and a yellow heart. Moreover, you may not believe it when I tell you, but the most militant school is Gongyang. Duke Xiang restored the vengeance of the ninth generation, which was great in the Spring and Autumn Period. This is their core idea. The revenge of the ninth generation can still be avenged. It is completely different from the Guliang waste in the Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties.

As for what you are talking about about Confucianism, I actually don't know much about it, but you mentioned many relatively backward representatives of Confucianism. In fact, every time traveler has brought a great impact. If time travel really happened, many people and many things after the time traveler may not have happened. Of course, it is impossible to say after all, someone mentioned the inertia of history (this is worth thinking about)

This novel is so well written. I hope the author will work hard. By the way, I would also like to tell all my friends that the bones of the Han Dynasty that traveled through the Ming Dynasty will last forever. Friends can also take a look. The author already has a completed novel of 3 million words. Don't worry.

The early stage of Confucianism was very good, because there were hundreds of schools of thought contending, so it was constantly improving and perfecting itself. When there are no opponents, no constraints, and no pressure, their mentality will fundamentally change and they will become confused and arrogant. It is believed that the development of all things should be based on the "self-understanding" of what the sages have said, and anything beyond its scope is against the will of the sages and is wrong. Thus falling into self-contradiction and constantly moving forward. Thoughts are restricted and rigid.

The previous plot is really speechless. Why should the protagonists care about them when they already have their own basics? Just let the people who arranged it die and let the protagonist take over, and there is so much bbw.

The author takes it for granted. If this were true, he would have died hundreds of times. You have no ability to protect yourself at all

The writing is very good, I hope you will continue to work hard. Thank you.
