Bo Yu did not kill people on the spot. According to Chinese etiquette, the identities of these four people are Bojun. Even if Bojun commits a death sentence, others cannot be punished without authorization. According to convention, they should be taken to the imperial capital, and the heads of the tribes and the court's group
The ministers agreed and the emperor ordered the punishment.
Only the Chinese emperor has the right to order a Bojun to be killed. In most cases, the emperor will not easily kill a Bojun. The usual practice is to cut off his title, imprison him, and then decide whether to withdraw his ban.
If his troops are replaced by another king, they often only commit serious crimes such as rebellion and rebellion, the emperor will directly order the killing of Bojun.
Many of the Chinese tribes have died in recent years. The most shocking ones were Dijiang, Huando, Chongbogu and Sanmiao, all of which were caused by the incident. Boyi even killed twenty or four in all.
Among them, more than a dozen of them were officially enthroned, but they were not taken to the imperial capital as usual and the emperor ordered them to be punished.
Doing this is somewhat contrary to Chinese etiquette and law, which is also the reason why Bo Yi was afraid of the kings of all tribes in the world.
But Emperor Yao did not punish Bo Yi at that time. Because the situation was special and the flood was coming, the capitals of each tribe should cooperate with the people in the disaster-stricken areas to move. If Bo Yi captured them all in the imperial capital, the heads of the kings and the court group would be the heads of the kings and the group of the court.
The ministers made a decision and then made a penalty decision to convey it to each department, but it was too late to go to time. So Bo Yi made a quick decision and killed him.
But Bo Yu could not do what Bo Yi did today. He did not kill the four Chinese Bojuns on the spot, but instead entrust them to prison according to etiquette. As for how to entrust, Bo Yu had the final say at this moment, so he would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one
They were locked in a cage. The cage had long been built by Yunqi. At this moment, the curtain was opened and four large cages stood behind Bo Yu.
All four Bojuns were locked up, but today's work was not over yet. Boyu nodded to Ziqiu again. Ziqiu turned around and sat down again, raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and spoke in a solemn and soothing tone:
"Today, punishing these four Bojuns is also to rectify the chaos in the hearts of the people of Huaize. Their crimes are clear, but some people know where their crimes originate? If the heads of the kings here change their place,
How should I choose myself at the beginning?”
This is the focus of today's public trial. For those four Bojuns, the two serious crimes that have just been investigated are enough to imprison and be punished. But what is the purpose of punishing these four Bojuns?
Even if they are killed, what can be changed?
The serious crime they committed has been confirmed, and no matter how they defended themselves, they could not escape the crime. In fact, how the four Bojuns would defend themselves, everyone present could think of it. It was just a forced one, in order to protect the tribe. But why did they claim to protect the people of the tribe?
But the clan members committed the crime of being ruthless and punishing the clan members?
In other words, if they were willing to be driven by evil spirits and worship Wuzhiqi as the Huai God, but did not change the ancestral temple to the place to worship the Huai God, nor did they secretly use their tribe members to sacrifice to their lives, then what should we do in this case today?
What about the trial? Or Wuzhiqi chose not the heads of the four tribes, but the leaders of other tribes present. Looking back to the beginning, what should these people do?
No one present answered, not because he had no thoughts, but he always felt it was difficult to say it clearly, and he did not dare to speak nonsense. After a while, Ziqiu seemed to ask and answered: "Wuzhiqi is not because of his merits.
If you enjoy a sacrifice, you will be worshipped because of your atrocities. This is a great mistake! The priests will also follow their crimes."
Everyone showed a sudden look and nodded. Ziqiu said the key point, pointing out that the four masters had made mistakes from the beginning, and then they could only make mistakes deeper and deeper until they committed irreversible crimes.
Where does the so-called god come from? It is a concept created by people themselves, representing people’s beautiful sustenance and wishes. Without human behavior, there is no such thing as the appearance of "God". How can we place beautiful wishes on a cruel water monster?
The concept of Huai God was also created by people themselves. If Wuzhiqi calls himself Huai God, would he regard him as Huai God?
Not to mention whether the "Huai Shen" exists or not, what kind of existence should it be? But Wuzhiqi clearly understands that it is a demon who causes trouble and harms the people of the Ministry. The reason why people worship him is actually because they are harmed, which is the mistake.
The source. Do people want to be harmed? Of course they don’t want it! But some people just worship such a god of Huai, and even use it to harm others for profit.
Shang Zhang and other four major officials seemed to have gained benefits, but was this benefit given by Wuzhiqi? Of course not, but by relying on Wuzhiqi's atrocities to harm other tribes. And for the people of Huaize, the consequences were received.
The only one who does this is just a murder. In fact, the person who does this has committed the same crime as Wuzhiqi.
Seeing everyone nodding, Ziqiu said again: "The great affairs of the country are sacrificed in the Rong Dynasty. How can the saints proclaim benevolence, how can they establish teachings, and how can they respect filial piety? It is due to their merits but not in the position of the gods!"
Sacrifices and military affairs are both national affairs. There is no need to say the importance of rectifying the military, but sacrifices are more important in a sense. They involve the issue of historical inheritance, the justice and legitimacy of the regime and the system. Even for thousands of years
Later, although the expression of the sacrifice has changed greatly, the core remains unchanged.
The importance of sacrifice does not lie in what specifications should be used, but why should sacrifice and how should sacrifice? What kind of sacrifice activities should respect the behavioral norms and social norms? There is also a god of national sacrifice in China, which is
Taihao, Shennong, Xuanyuan, Shaohao and Gaoyang.
In the official official sacrifice hosted by the emperor, the five heavenly emperors' throne are arranged in this order. Emperor Taihao is in front, and Emperor Xuanyuan is in the center. In the mural on the altar, Emperor Xuanyuan is the god of Emperor Xuanyuan.
The position is also in the middle, while the other four heavenly emperors are divided into four directions.
Because of the position of sacrifice, there is a saying gradually; the Qing Emperor in the East, Taihao, who lives in the wood virtue, and wood produces fire; the Yan Emperor in the South, Shennong, who lives in the fire virtue, and fire produces earth; the Huang Emperor in the Central, who lives in the earth virtue, and earth produces earth.
Jin; the White Emperor Shaohao in the West lives in Jinde, and Jin produces water; the Xuan Emperor in the North lives in Gaoyang in the North lives in Water.
This represents a inheritance relationship. The simple source of the theory of the Five Elements in later generations was originally from sacrifices and then symbolized the evolution of everything in the world. But what Ziqiu said today is not the five elements, but why did they enjoy sacrifices?
They all created the rule of China and had great merits in the world!
In Ziqiu's view, the sacrifices that people in the world are not the illusory "divine position" or "divine nature", but the real merit and holy practice. He attaches great importance to sacrifice rituals, and what he values is the educational core contained in sacrifice rituals.
.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Ziqiu said again: "Why do you say sacrifices if you are not kind or filial? If you sacrifice merits and holy practices, how can you say that you are strange and powerful? What people sacrifice to the world are what you need? Isn't Bo Yu?
The holy conduct of the water control by the Lord is the harm caused by the evil spirit?”
The "benevolence" mentioned by Ziqiu when talking about worldly affairs and the "benevolence" mentioned by Huwa when talking about practice are two concepts. The benevolence mentioned by Huwa is closer to the meaning of "partiality". The way of heaven is always constant, not just because
Who survives? And what Ziqiu said about benevolence is closer to the meaning of "need". How everyone needs or wants others to treat themselves, this is the origin of "benevolence", which then evolves into how everyone should treat others. First of all,
It is the people around you who are promoted to the world.
Why do you say sacrifices if you are not kind and filial? You don’t know how to treat the people around you, or how to treat your ancestors who give you everything, or how to solve the real needs of the world. In Ziqiu’s opinion, you don’t deserve to talk about sacrifices, let alone claim what you believe in
.Man never becomes nobler because of his belief in any god. Nobility only depends on virtue cultivation and can truly solve the needs of the world.
Ziqiu continued: "Master Bo Yu leads all the tribes in the world to control the water, which is a holy practice of merit. The water demon who harms the people is also worthy of calling himself the Huai God in front of Master Bo Yu? Who should you follow?"
Ziqiu is not only here to interrogate the four Bojuns today, but also to solve the problem. He must make it clear so that everyone can understand the truth. Many tribes are even unwilling to follow Boyu to control the water due to the Huai God.
Is it unclear what Wuzhiqi did, what Boyu did, who should he follow, and what kind of holy deeds to respect?
Ziqiu is a disciple of Hougang, Gao Yao's student and assistant. He also gave an appropriate evaluation of Bo Yu and Wuzhiqi. He told everyone that what should be respected is not the so-called monster, but the real one.
The merits and holy practices. In later generations, Gao Yao was respected as a saint by both the Legalists and Confucians, while Bo Yu was respected as a saint by both the Mohists and Confucians, which originated from this.
Wuzhiqi stirs up trouble and harms the people of the Ministry. It is not the gods that should be sacrificed, but the disasters that should be eliminated. When facing such powerful threats, people sometimes have to surrender helplessly. But this does not mean that they need to change their mindfulness.
, because that is not what people want, nor what people need.
In later generations, certain religions or certain sects in certain religions will also promote such a coercive idea. The focus is not on "If you believe in me, you will get benefits", but on "If you don't believe in me, you will get things done."
Disaster.”
Pay attention to the subtle differences in the doctrine. If it is just a kind of advice to the end of the act, such as persuading others not to do evil. If it does evil, it will go to hell, etc., it is not listed here. If you only talk about belief and declare that you do not follow me, you will receive it.
If you serve me, you will have both gain and virtue. In Ziqiu's view, it is a thief virtue, and you will be with Wuzhiqi and the four Bojuns.
People with thieves and virtues are often seen in later generations, but the wise men have already said that.
Ziqiu's words today are both Bo Yu's advice and Gao Yao's teachings, representing the enlightenment of a kind of civilized thought. The above sects were often scattered in China in later generations, but they have never become mainstream, which is probably because of China.
The origin of civilization and cultural traditions is here, and the saints have been enlightened for a long time.
What Ziqiu said today also represents an attitude towards ghosts and gods. When many foreign ideas, religions and theories were introduced to China in later generations, people looked at and transformed and absorbed them, and their attitudes were closer to philosophy rather than theology.
When Ziqiu said this, everyone left their seats and bowed: "We should follow Lord Bo Yu to control the flood, and we must do our best to do our best!"
Ziqiu Yi stood up and returned the greeting, then retreated to Boyu, and replaced him with Boyi and sat in front of the desk. Boyi took out a book made of sheepskin, and ordered people to put a sand table on the open space, which showed the
The topography and landform after the successful water control in Huaize. Now we need to talk about the important things, but it is still the old routine to first allocate the gains after the successful water control.
Bo Yu said first, but the two principles are still the same. First, the migrant tribes voluntarily moved back to their old lands, and secondly, the interests are divided according to the efforts of each tribe when controlling the water. Bo Yi also announced another thing, in order to fight against Huai
The water demon is going to form a ten-format army to measure the amount of efforts it will contribute to water control in the future. This is the most important contribution.
Lord Tushan stood up and said, "Those water demons have great magical powers. How can ordinary military formations be defeated in the depths of Huaize?"
This is also a question that everyone else present wants to ask. He has drawn elite troops and masters to form an army formation, but he has no way to fight against the water demon in Huaize. The so-called water battle in the world has always been to attack each other on warships, and the opponents are still
people.
Lord Bo Yu finally spoke: "Faced with the evil and evil disaster, if you do nothing, Wuzhiqi will always cause trouble to Huaize. Although the formation of ten formations of troops cannot enter the water to capture the monsters, they can mount on the shore and protect the people of various departments.
.I have seen the methods of water demons. Although they can form formations and storms and waves to rush to the nearshore, they are difficult to climb to the high land. If those demons leave the water and go ashore, most of them will be difficult to show their magical powers, and the military formation should be able to compete with them."
Bo Yu's plan is to ask each department to start with what he can do, no longer believe in Wuzhiqi, form an army formation to defend on the shore, making it difficult for the water demons to cause disaster in the deep inland, and will not give them any benefits.
.
Lord Tushan immediately expressed his opinion: "Mr. Boyu's words are very good, and my Tushan tribe is willing to come out of the four formations."
Mi Lian also stood up and said, "Peng Keng's troops are willing to go out for two battles."
The tenth army and horses were solved in a blink of an eye, and no one had to claim the rest. The Shangzhang Department, Hongmeng Department, Douhu Department, and Lilou Department were originally powerful tribes in the local area. Bo Yu directly ordered them to be allowed to be
After a while, this is not a punishment for these four ministries, but a chance to give their ministries a chance to commit crimes and avenge the water demons.
Of course, the punishment for these four tribes cannot be only captured. All senior tribes who participated in the crime must be imprisoned. After taking down the four tribes, the relevant people have actually found out. But participating in those two
After all, Xiang Dajue is only a few senior executives, and some tribes have not participated, and they are even dissatisfied with Junshou’s approach.
Bo Yu dealt with the four Bojuns in public today. After the matter was broken, the people of the four tribes were also shocked and ashamed. Bo Yu first arrested all the guilty people, and then asked his tribe to elect another Junshou, responsible for the transfer.
The elite masters each form a military formation. Whether the Chinese emperor will add any additional punishment in the future depends on the performance of his subordinates.
The military formation system in the land of China is different from that in Bayuan. One military formation is a hundred people. After being hit by floods for many years, elite troops were drawn to form a hundred-man army. Only most of the forces with relatively complete preservation can be achieved. And the Tushan tribe is the only way to do it.
Four military formations were released at once, and all the elites in the clan were exerted.
...
Above the clouds, Huwa nodded slightly and said, "This Tushan Lord has seen it clearly. After controlling the water, Tushan tribes will become the most powerful tribe in the Huai River area." Today he and Xuanyuan also came, but only
Watch in secret on the clouds.
Many things cannot be seen in front of you. Tushan’s ministry has made the most efforts recently and has also received the most benefits in the future. As for the four ministries including Shangzhang, Bo Yu only arrested Junshou and a few senior officials who participated in the crime today, and did not punish them any more.
But the small tribes that were originally dependent on them will definitely not depend on them anymore, and their power has been disintegrated.
Not only was his power disintegrated, even if the emperor did not sue him, he might not be able to enthrone his king as the Chinese Bojun. With the successful water control, the strength of various tribes and the expansion of territory, Tushan's generals also absorbed more.
The forces originally belonged to these four divisions.
Xuanyuan also nodded and said, "Tushan's tribe will become the most powerful tribe in Huaize and will also be the support of Bo Yu. Previously, Chonghua had to appoint Bo Yu as the minister of flood control, but whether the flood control was successful or not, it determined the situation of China in the future.
.”
Huwa: "If that is true, Bo Yu deserves it."
Xuanyuan asked again: "What do you think of your husband just now?"
Huwa replied: "Work to the world with the Tao, the ghosts are not gods, and the spirits are not harming people." (~^~)
