Great Confucian in the Early Tang Dynasty

There is actually a conflict between the title and the introduction of this book. The ancestor of Confucianism is Confucius. Although Confucius was a descendant of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, he followed the footsteps of Zhou Gongdan. The ideal was the Zhou system of Zhou rituals and the cultural atmosphere of the Zhou Dynasty: "Zhou supervised the second generation, and was rich in culture. I follow the Zhou." - The Zhou Dynasty learned from the lessons of the Xia and Shang dynasties and created a strong humanistic atmosphere. I follow this. For more than two thousand years in later generations, Chinese civilization generally followed the Zhou humanistic line. Confucian scholars have nothing to say about this since Zhou Dynasty. The title of the author's book is Ri Da Ru, but the introduction conjures up the ghosts of the Yin Shang Dynasty, which is really strange. Shouldn't those who follow the path of the Shang Dynasty go to the Middle East and the rain forests of South America to find the Kingdom of God? Historically, there were reforms in the Yin and Shang Dynasties. From Pan Geng moving the capital to Zu Jia's restructuring to Shang Zhou's subjugation, there was constant reform. But that's just trying to cross the river, without a certain direction. Some changes will be better and some will be changed for the worse. As far as the Yin Ruins oracle bone inscriptions and the golden tripod inscriptions are concerned, there were still sacrifices during the Shang Dynasty. There is no basis for its ban on human sacrifice. The religious reform of Shang Zhou tightened the scope of sacrifices and fixed and narrowed the scope of sacrifices. This does not mean that he opposed sacrifices. In fact, the Shang King himself was the biggest sacrifice. The inscription shows that even if Shang Zhou went to war, he would still strictly follow the Zhou sacrifice system. He kicked some ancestor kings and ancestral gods of vassal states out of the scope of sacrifice, and exploited the political power of their descendants (nobles) by exploiting their sacrificial rights. In fact, it raises the threshold for sacrifice, further centralizes power and mythologizes oneself. Sacrifice in the Shang Dynasty was a semi-formed religion that was relatively loose at first. When Pan Geng moved the capital, everyone could offer sacrifices to their ancestors and receive blessings. To put it bluntly, it is the Orthodox Church. Although it has the name of the Ecumenical Patriarch (the Patriarch of Constantinople), it is actually a brother of the other Patriarchs and has no jurisdiction. What Shang Zhou wanted to do was not to overthrow his own religious religion. This was done by the Zhou people. The real purpose of the sacrificial reforms carried out by Shang Zhou was to transform the Orthodox Church with a flat patriarch into a Catholic Church with a dominant pope. The patriarch, who was originally equal to the universal patriarch, became a cardinal and chief priest, and at the same time, the corresponding secular power also suffered a great loss. This is why people (those who lost power) said that Shang Zhou did not pay attention to sacrifice (do not respect the ancient sacrificial system). Zhou also used this as an enemy slogan to split merchants - in fact, it was the same as the Manchus entering the country in the name of revenge for Chongzhen, just listen to it. In addition, the Shang Dynasty monarchs were all called "kings" when they were alive. In the middle and late period, there was a deification phenomenon in which the living Shang king honored his deceased father as "Emperor". "Di Yi" was from the Shang Dynasty, and "Di Xin" was a parallel import, because the Zhou people would definitely not give the Shang King Zhou the title of God. In the early Zhou Dynasty, influenced by the Yin and Shang culture, the previous generations actually had the title of emperor. In Yingguo, where King Wu's son was granted a title, the unearthed Yinggong tripod had an inscription: "The descendants of Emperor Gui of Ding are descendants of Yonghao." Jue is a special text for King Wu, just like Zhao for Wu Zetian. Ri is the day, and Zhou used to add the character "" to the deceased monarch. Therefore, King Wu can also be called Di Ding.

I was really embarrassed when I saw it. Some places were too stiff.

Is one generation of generals inferior to another? I'm so drunk, Li Jing, Su Dingfang, which of these generals in the early Tang Dynasty was not a ruthless person who massacred a city and destroyed a country, and who was also capable of killing Zhao Zilong and Xiang Yu? Xue Rengui's three arrows anchored the Tianshan Mountains, and he took off his hat and retreated ten thousand enemies. Isn't it more legendary than seven in and seven out? Zhao Zilong's seven entries and seven exits were modified through exercises, which was really an insult to the later generals. Even in the Song Dynasty, there were Yue Fei, Xin Qiji, and Han Shizhong. Which of these people could not crush Zhao Yun?

When I saw the introduction, I called out to you, "Hey guys, have you read too much street stall literature, or have you read too many prehistoric novels?" The Shang Dynasty ruled the country with gods, and divination was required before doing anything. Sacrifice was the upper class of the country. It was not until the Zhou Dynasty that China began to govern the country with people. The Duke of Zhou wrote "Zhou Rites" to standardize etiquette and laws.

There has been no king since the Shang Dynasty... What a cool statement. Heaven is called the emperor in the emotional oracle bones. Could it be that the person who claims to be the descendant of the emperor is not Shang? We also liberated the slaves and abolished human sacrifice. Is it true that the oracle bone inscriptions unearthed in the Yin Ruins are all fake? The oracle bone inscriptions of the Yin Ruins also have records of King Zhou personally sacrificing slaves to heaven. You know the Shang Dynasty better than the Yin Ruins, and you know more about oracle bone inscriptions translation than Hu Houxuan, a member of the Academy of Humanities and Social Sciences, the first Chinese and foreign oracle bone research? Where did the unofficial history come from? Besides, isn't it normal to call yourself emperor? Because ancient China either worshiped ancestors or worshiped nature, and nature and ancestors were often connected together. In the Book of Zen in the Historical Records, Taiyi Zuo was called the Five Emperors, and the Five Classics Tongyi Emperor was also named Taiyi. Who were the Five Emperors of the Five Directions? In the east, Taihao is called God Fuxi, and his assistant is Jumang. In the west, he is called Shaohao, and his assistant is called Xuanming. In the north, he is Zhuanxu, and his assistant is called Xuanming. In the south, Shennong, and his assistant is called Zhurong. In the center, Xuanyuan, and his assistant is called Houtu. Are you not even a descendant of the Five Emperors? Are you saying that the emperor has wronged you? Those people who claim that King Zhou of Shang was both a liberator of slaves and a human king, are the Yin Xu fake? Is it possible that Hu Houxuan, the first person in the history of oracle bone inscription research in the Shang Dynasty, existed? Does the Academy of Social Sciences, China's highest institution for cultural and historical research, not exist? May I ask if you have read the History of the Shang Dynasty edited by a member of the Faculty of the Academy of Social Sciences (that is, an academician? There are no academicians in the Academy of Social Sciences, and a faculty member is equivalent to an academician)? Is the oracle bone inscription posted around page 72 of Volume 11 fake? At that time, the Academy of Social Sciences was edited by Song Zhenhao, a member of the academic department, who compiled a history of the Shang Dynasty based on the oracle bone inscriptions unearthed from the Yin Ruins 😥

The title of the book is Great Confucianism. Does what he is doing have anything to do with Confucianism? The main line has gone astray.

Li Shimin asked Qin Qiong to be the chief arrester? The military boss is going to be the head catcher? How did you come up with it!

Good guy, isn't the king of men the emperor? The Yellow Emperor was the emperor, and the Shang Dynasty even believed that their ancestors were the emperors of heaven.

Please copy poems that fit the protagonist's situation, or that are not so famous, otherwise it will look embarrassing.

In some places, although the rhyme is wrong, the author did not pay attention to this, but there is no problem with the poem. The second half of "Hunting in Youzhou" is written by Luo Cheng, but many places are foreshadowing set by the author and he did not explain it immediately. Don't squirt when caught. The classification of this book is fiction, as Lao Wu also said at the beginning, this is fiction, that is to say, all the stories are Lao Wu's nonsense! Of course, if your balls are pulled, it will hurt a little, so please bear with it. Thank you readers for your support and understanding. And thank you everyone for voting. Thank you very much for helping to correct the error!

Is it interesting for you, a historical novelist, to give me the framework of a prehistoric story? Since it is a historical novel, it should be written based on the history of the real world, rather than copying prehistoric novels written by modern authors.

After some research, the reason why the Son of Heaven was created was probably to be superior to human kings. In ancient times, or in the Zhou Dynasty, Heaven was also called the Emperor, and was also called the God of the Five Directions. The God of the Five Directions was also called the Five Emperors. I won't say which ones they are. , I didn't remember either. Anyway, you just need to remember that the Five Emperors are the Five Emperors among the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors They created this title just to tell you that I am the descendant of the Five Emperors. You rebellious people don't kneel down and surrender. I checked and found that the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were among the ancients. It had a very high prestige, but after the Qin Dynasty, it seemed to have dropped a lot. Instead, they had more admiration and belief in the gods of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors This is my own inference. I feel that the reason why they lowered the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors was because Qin Shihuang was called the emperor, and other kings were not. The reason why they were called emperor was because they felt that their merits were not as good as those of the Three Emperors, and their virtues were not as good as those of the Five Emperors, so they were not worthy of being called Emperors or Emperors. However, Qin Shihuang felt that he unified the world, his cars were on the same track, and his books were written with the same text. His merits exceeded those of the Three Emperors and the Five Emperors. He should have a brand new title, just called Emperor.

It feels like the plot is getting more and more deviated from the main plot, and it has nothing to do with the title. It is just an upgraded fantasy novel cloaked in Confucianism. It creates a secret realm out of nowhere, and it takes up such a large space. What kind of trouble is it? It has nothing to do with the main plot. According to the introduction, it should not be just poetry and poetry, write policies and pretentiousness, and then become a great Confucianist.

I didn't read the novel, but read the synopsis and some comments First of all, it's not that people are getting weaker and weaker, it's that fewer and fewer people are deified, like Xin Qiji, is he awesome or not? If 50 people rush into ten thousand people, we all know now that tens of thousands of people can drown him by spitting, but why can he rush into it? Anyone who knows Xin Qiji knows that he is a Confucian general. He does have military power, but he is definitely not good at it. He just relies on wrangling! Can it be done tomorrow? Can you put it in the Qing Dynasty? It's all irrelevant Finally, during the Southern Song Dynasty, Xin Qiji was not famous for his military force at all, but for his literature. Anyway, even according to the current literature, his military force during the Southern Song Dynasty was not famous at all, or no one cared about his military force at all I can tell you this, I have a machete in my hand, and my opponent is a special forces soldier. He also holds a machete. I fight with him for my life. The winning rate is 50-50, either he will chop me with a knife, or I will chop him with a knife 50 vs. 10,000. He is not holding a gun, but riding a horse with a knife. If you are not afraid, let alone 500, 300 can kill them So in the final analysis, it is definitely not 50 people using force to rush to tens of thousands of people. You can say they are brave, but you cannot say they are fierce. Do they really count as fierce? Xiang Yu's 8,000 men broke the cauldron. This is life-threatening and fierce. What matters to them is their IQ and the courage to negotiate with 50 people into an army of tens of thousands.

The emperor consecrates gods to heaven and ancestors, and the king of men worships gods. Do you think the emperor is more powerful or the human king is more powerful?

I suggest the author to read hard and then write the novel he wants to write. It is difficult for readers to identify with it without cultural background. It is really too poisonous. Really, people who don't know history may read it. I hope the author can work hard and write well.

What a good guy, wearing the skin of Confucianism and following the path of Taoism. 🤭🤭

I don't understand why your mythological novel appears in the historical zone. Isn't this uncomfortable?

Wrong zoning, it shouldn't be in the historic district

In ancient times, you had to be eighteen years old or older before you would like you. Congratulations, 80% of the women you like are the mothers of children, and the other 20% are married women.

After reading Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors and The Human King, the Emperor's comments shattered my outlook on life. The Human Emperor has great merits and admirable virtues, and is "titled" after death The Human King is what he calls himself, and he is also the "title" given to him by the ministers of the tribe. The Emperor refers to the origin, and is also a deceptive term for people's status in the feudal era. He is the son of God. Heaven is the biggest. No one, thing, or thing is bigger than the sky, so Only then does the title "Emperor" exist. It is estimated that there are still people who say who is the emperor, who is the emperor, who is the emperor of earth, and who is the emperor of humans. This is a secondary processing in modern novels. Among the three emperors, Fuxi is definitely the same as Shennong. As for the other one, there are different opinions. Some people say he is the Yellow Emperor, and some say he is Suiren. The five emperors also have different opinions. Lastly, the novel is a novel. It's good for some people to know about it. Don't publish it to embarrass people.

In ancient times, it was basically the rise of military commanders and the destruction of Confucian scholars.

In the Tang Dynasty, if a woman did not get married at the age of fifteen, her whole family would be imprisoned. There were exceptions for the children of courtiers, but they were generally not too old. Princess Changle is married to Changsun Chong at Du Shishi. Do you think the protagonist can find a wife without changing the setting? This has nothing to do with three views, at least you have to abide by the rules. You don't follow the rules yourself and you embarrass us. Also, don't use modern laws to restrain the ancients, otherwise the human race would have become extinct long ago. Laws change based on current circumstances. Only suitable for the moment

I have read less than thirty chapters, and I haven't seen anything about Confucianism except for a few poems. Also, the transition is a bit too stiff! Goodbye author, I hope your next book improves!

I don't agree with some of the author's statements! For example, the ultimate goal of Taoism is to avoid harm throughout life! As the saying goes: "If you learn more and more, if you do Taoism, you will lose more and more. If you lose more and more, you will do nothing." Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism all pursue the unity of nature and man! Taoism focuses on heaven and opposes man-made things. The happiness of human life comes from heaven, and troubles and distress come from man himself. Therefore, how to live a whole life is equal to how to avoid harm. Harm comes from man's own creation! The focus of Confucianism is on people. As the saying goes: "People can promote the Tao, and the Tao is not far away from others." If human nature is fully utilized, the Tao of Heaven will naturally be promoted!

The writing is a bit messy! The article is a bit off topic! The main plot is not clear, and the pig's feet are written as omnipotent, and it seems that all opportunities belong to the pig's feet. The plot is a bit blunt!

The article is not on topic and the writing is messy.

How about the King Kong girl in the movie "Journey", who re-expands the sword, as the prototype of Xiangli Yanran?

Good guy, don't you update at least two chapters every day? Occasionally one chapter, sometimes two chapters
