Kong Beihai of the Three Kingdoms: I Expound the Confucian Classics

People generally say that parents are as indebted as mountains, and that rulers are as boundless as the sky. I alone think otherwise. Kindness is something bestowed upon others and received in return. The giver must have intention, and the receiver must have awareness; only then can kindness be established.

Kong Rong's claim of being ungrateful to his parents was actually an opposition to blind filial piety. He wanted to illustrate that children don't necessarily have to blindly obey their parents, which was an enlightened idea. However, in Confucianism, which emphasizes loyalty and filial piety, this was considered a grave offense.

The Confucian family were essentially religious priests; the so-called Confucian school was, in fact, a religion of Confucianism. A characteristic of religion is its double standards.

When Kong Rong was serving as the Chancellor of Beihai, he saw a man weeping by his deceased father's grave, yet his face showed no signs of grief. Kong Rong then had the man killed. It's a disgrace that such a scoundrel as Kong Rong is still alive.

It's still a case of intellectual angst. In ancient times, a county could support 800 to 1,000 soldiers, and a prefecture could easily support 50,000 soldiers. And that was during peaceful times; in chaotic times, the number was even higher.

Your opening wasn't very engaging. Do you know about the "golden three chapters"? If your first three chapters or the synopsis aren't captivating, no one will read it. Your writing style is good, but you need to make it more exciting. Reading is fast-paced these days, otherwise nobody will read it.
