Chapter 287

When Li Shimin said the latter, his face was already full of regret.

This regret is not pretended.

He has read books about the Gongshu family during the Warring States Period, and he is particularly good at building weapons and military equipment. He is a strong siege player. Therefore, he must be invited to come out as a high-ranking official.

"Of course they dare not come out." A voice suddenly appeared.

Everyone turned their heads and saw that it was another old man, also wearing common clothes, followed by two men. The old man was thin and thin, but his eyes were unusually sharp, staring closely at Gong Shuxing.

Extraordinary air.

Even if the eyes of Li Shimin and others moved over, they didn't panic at all, they just said slowly:
"The inheritance of Gongshu is all about wars. However, success is also caused by wars, and defeats are also caused by wars. Wars and chaos in the world must end. Once the war ends, it will be the end of Gongshu. With such a fate, how dare you be born?"

After saying these words, Gong Shuxing's face suddenly turned ugly.

Because this remark hits the sore spot of the public loser.

They are good at equipment, but what they are good at is the machinery of war.

From small concealed weapons, to crossbows, to siege equipment, so once the world is in chaos and wars happen frequently, it is often the time when the public losers are the most prominent.

However, this kind of prominence cannot last long, and it may even bring crisis.

Once the war is over and the world is stable, the public loser will be suspected by the superiors.

This is also why, since the Spring and Autumn Period of the Warring States Period, the public loser has never appeared again.

He even changed his name and hid himself in the market.

But in this kind of pain, it was pointed out face to face, even Gong Shuxing was a little annoyed.

He cupped his hands and said, "Dare to ask this old man's name?"

"It's easy to say, easy to say." The skinny old man stroked the beard on his chin, "My surname is Mo."

In one sentence, Gong Shuxing's face changed slightly.

And Li Shimin and others were even more shocked.

Mo, this is not a simple surname.

Li Shimin quickly asked: "But heir of the Mohist school?"

"Exactly." Mo Hui admitted without hesitation.

"Sure enough, he is a descendant of the Mohist school." Li Shimin sighed all over his face, "I once read history books, and said that the Mohist school loves non-offensive, and uses wise ghosts sparingly. one sight."

During the Spring and Autumn Period of the Warring States Period, Mohism was also a well-known school.

It's a pity that in the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty dismissed all schools of thought and respected only Confucianism.

It will gradually weaken until it disappears.

But I didn't expect that when the immortals came to the world, these schools that had disappeared would still have their inheritance appear one by one.

"Your Majesty's words are serious." Mo Hui cupped his hands and said calmly, "Although the Mohist school and Gongshu are both famous for their skills in weapons, Gongshu emphasizes weapons and ignores reasoning.

"you!"

Gongshuhang's face turned red.

During the Warring States period, the Mohists and the public losers did not deal with them because of the difference in ideas.

This is written in the book.

One is proficient in armaments, as long as he makes a move, it will inevitably mean war, while the other is equally proficient in armaments, but advocates non-aggression and opposes war. The enmity between the two is not only the enmity of ancestors, but also the opposition of ideas.

After Gong Shuxing calmed down his anger, he said:
"You say that I am opportunistic and opportunistic, and you don't know that you are not offensive. How ridiculous. Since ancient times, the hero will win the world immediately. Fighting is the nature of human beings. Your Mohism's words have nothing to do The connotation, how naive and ridiculous, isn't it the reason for the decline of your Mohist school."

Since Gongshu and the aristocratic family are feuds, they naturally know each other better.

At this time, what Gong Shuxing said was indeed the disadvantages of the Mohists.

— out of touch with reality.

Universal love and non-gong is too ideal, and it emphasizes complete fraternity, regardless of each other, but in reality it is impossible to achieve, and it is not in the interests of the ruling class. This is the root cause of the Mohism's decline.

In modern terms, it is unrealistic utopianism.

It is precisely because of this.

The Mo family has not fallen to these people until now.

However, in the face of Gongshuhang's attack, Mo Hui just chuckled twice, and even raised his voice, saying calmly:
"My Mohism's learning is indeed difficult to realize compared with thousands of years ago. However, today is not what it used to be. Today's world is exactly the time when my Mohism's theory is prominent."

A word, immediately caused a lot of uproar.

Especially those Confucian scholars.

For thousands of years, Confucianism has been the world, but from what Mo Hui said, it seems that Mohism has reappeared now, competing with Confucianism for the status of the doctrine.

Even Gongshuhang's expression was astonished.

Because this sentence is not only aimed at them, but also declares war on all other theories.

Could it be that this Mohist doesn't know how to live or die?
But Li Shimin's eyes flickered slightly.

He simply asked aloud, "Could Elder Mo elaborate?"

"Since your majesty has asked, there is nothing wrong with it."

When Mo Hui faced Li Shimin, although he bowed his hands and saluted, his expression was still calm. He looked around. He was obviously thin, but he had an inexplicable confidence. He said slowly:

"I say today is not what it used to be, but it's because there are real immortals descending into the world today, and evil ghosts appearing."

One sentence made the corners of the mouths of many Confucianists twitch.

Confucianism does not pay attention to ghosts and gods, and advocates "respect ghosts and gods and keep them at a distance", but Mohism believes in ghosts and gods, especially ghosts, and advocates "understanding ghosts". King, don't take the lives of your subjects because of some anger
Under the current situation, this is indeed in harmony with the morals of the world.

After all, as long as there are ghosts, there are also gods.

Even, they are now above the immortal palace.

Li Shimin's expression was indeed serious.

And Mo Hui's words didn't end yet.

He continued: "I heard that the immortal has an order to prohibit the army from attacking."

This sentence made the corners of Gong Shuxing's eyes twitch slightly.

Immortals did have such a ban, and the news that the frontier army returned without a fight has also reached Chang'an.

This coincides with the Mohist's "non-aggression" approach.

And Mo Hui stretched out his hand again, gestured to those carpenters, farmers and others who were still a little panicked, and said:
"Let's see, the talents selected by the fairies don't ask about their backgrounds, but only look at the virtuous? And my Mohist school also started from the common people. There is a saying that even though the people are humble, they should not be treated lightly. This is the principle of our Mohist school to honor the virtuous."

The Mohists were born among the people, and they did have such a basic idea of ​​"respecting the virtuous".

It is proposed that although the people are humble, they should not be despised, treated lightly, or treated lightly.

And now.

The rest of the people looked around, and many of the "contemptible people" in their eyes were now selected by the fairy as talents, and they were in the same fairy seat with them.
