Speaking of this, Wang Xiaoliu looked up at the sky.

The sun was covered by clouds, with only a vague shadow. The clouds were stacked, like waves, as if the sea was draped over the head.

There was still no wind and it was still stuffy and hot. The cicada insects on the trees suddenly screamed heart-wrenchingly as if they had the strength.

"What is heaven? What is Tao? In fact, we can't understand it. Xunzi said that heaven has constant actions, and it will not be Yao's existence, nor will it be destroyed by Jie. It will be auspicious to respond to it with governance, and it will be in chaos. In other words, the affairs of heaven are probably not very related to human affairs. It is said that it is the emperor, but it is actually that the King of Zhou treats heaven with his son with his son. It is difficult to say very much. If there is really a heaven and there is this son in the world, then when the world is in turmoil and the people are in chaos, there should always be some expressions. Some people ask God to divine, some burn incense and pray. Some people say that natural disasters are warnings, and auspiciousness is recognized by God. All kinds of methods are different. It seems that it is unreliable."

Speaking of this, Wang Xiaoli's mouth slightly raised. When the Jin army surrounded Kaifeng Prefecture, the Song Dynasty's monarchs and ministers didn't know what they thought, so they found Guo Jing and said that there were some Liujia divine weapons, and staged a farce in front of the army.

"In addition to these, there is another way. Tai oath said, "Heaven sees itself, the people see, and the people hear. From ancient times to the present, we have not yet understood this sentence. Instead of asking God for divination, it is better to believe what Tai oath said. What heaven sees is what the people see. What heaven hears is what the people hear. What the people see and hear, and seek the way of heaven may be more appropriate."

When people below heard this, they couldn't help but whisper. This sentence came from "Shangshu" and was quoted by "Mencius". Everyone is familiar with the classics, so they naturally know. But how to understand it, I have never heard what Wang Xiaoli said.

Wang Xiaoliu said: "The key here is that the people see the people and listen to them. Which people? Or, what are the people in the world? Which people are not the people? Who are the people in the world? Who are the people? Who are the people? Who are the people?"

Speaking of this, Wang Xiaolien sighed: "If you don't understand this question, this sentence is equivalent to saying nothing. He said that the people's view is black, and another person said it is white, and then the people's view is black or white? He said that the people's hearing is rain, and the other person said it is wind, so the people's hearing is wind or rain? It is not that easy to figure out this problem."

"To solve this problem, we must explain the relationship between the individual and the whole. To understand this problem, it is far from enough to explain the relationship between the individual and the whole. We must clarify what the people see and how to know what the people see and hear."

"We live in this world first of all, one person, my joys, sorrows, my hopes, and I hate them. In addition, we have parents, brothers and sisters. When we become adults, we will form a new family with a woman. Parents, husbands, and children will become a small family. Brothers and sisters, grandfathers, grandmothers, and other relatives will become a big family. Many big families will form a clan. Clans will form a nation. Nationalities will form a country. Many countries will form a world. The world will be accompanied by a place outside, and it will be a world. This world is a link, with both individuals and different wholes."

"The key is, in addition to the individual's wishes, do these wholes also have their own wishes? The so-called people's view of the people, in addition to the people's sight and hearing, should they also add these whole sight and hearing? How to distinguish these many sights and hearings? How to summarize them and become the people's sight and hearing? They are in chaos, how do you know what we need to know?"

Speaking of this, Wang Xiaoli stopped and recalled what he said just now, and felt as if he had said nothing, and he felt like he was talking nonsense. This question may start with nonsense and slowly sort out his thoughts.

"I think that to truly understand people's vision and people's hearing, we must understand the relationship between the individual and the whole. This issue is a big political problem. Once there is a blur, people will exploit huge loopholes."

Speaking of this, Wang Xiaolien suddenly stopped. Looking at everyone, he felt a little unable to say anything.

How easy is it to figure out this issue? Throughout history, how many things have been so confused. When talking, they are all over the place, and when doing it, they are all in a mess. How many systems look perfect and have many loopholes when used.

After a while, Wang Xiaolie said: "You will write down this question and think about what you want to do. In short, the political thought of our Han people is that there is heaven and governing the people with the way of heaven. What is the way of heaven? There are many statements."

"The merchants made divination in everything, and finally lost the world. The Zhou people governed the country with Zhou rituals, and finally the rituals collapsed and music broke. The First Emperor burned books and buried scholars, and ordered the world to take officials as his teacher. The national affairs were all based on his own intentions. Qin II died. These lessons tell us that it would be useless if we just borrow the name of the Heavenly Way and let your tongue bloom lotus flowers. The Heavenly Way must truly use the Heavenly Way to govern the country."

"When Sima Jun was actually the prime minister, he once said that the prime minister should assist the ruler with Tao, so how can he use cases? If he uses cases, he will be a clerk! Now it seems that Sima Jun is actually saying it may be correct, but he really doesn't know what Tao is. If you want to be an official, you must know the way of heaven. When doing things, you do not need to use cases, and you do not need to be like a public official. However, you must know examples and understand why the examples are like this. When you enter a school, you must learn both the theory and some examples. Learning examples is not to let you copy them when you become an official in the future, but to understand why it is like this."

"What I am talking about today is a big thing, not something that schools can teach. What I said before is an understanding of the way of heaven. We believe that the way of heaven is not asking gods for divination, not looking at natural disasters and auspiciousness, nor is it just a blind guess. It is to look at the people's sight, listen to them, and know what the people want. It is not possible to do whatever the people think, but to do it correctly. This is not easy, so we must select outstanding talents to be officials."

"From asking God for divination, to talking about etiquette, to the First Emperor's world depend on one person, to the assistance of the king and minister, to the dynasty and scholars and officials to govern the world together. We go further and talk about the way of heaven determines the people of the world. The problem we need to solve in the future is how to clearly know the people of the world's vision and hearing, and how to know their wishes. For the way of heaven, from looking up at the heaven, to looking everywhere for traces of natural disasters and auspiciousness, and then seeking from the people, I think it is a progress. This progress can solve many problems we are facing now."

Speaking of this, Wang Xiaoli shook his head and said helplessly: "But to be honest, no matter what solution we find, as long as the rulers and officials give up their ideals, the method will be useless. Under the laws of heaven, officials must have ideals. Without ideals and only thinking about the fireworks of the world in the world, that is not possible. If we change the system because there is no ideal, it will be even worse."

"When a person is an individual, he has his own joys, sorrows and sorrows, and can live his life according to his own ideas. But officials are different. They cannot act according to their own joys, sorrows and sorrows, but must act according to the rules. In other words, as an official, there is no way I think, but only what officials should do. Without me thinking so, only what officials should think as an official. Officials must consider the overall matter and cannot ignore the individual. This matter is definitely not as easy as you thought before."
