Chapter 355 Heliocentric Theory
The large-scale application and legalization of mutilation began in the Southern Song Dynasty, which corresponds to the ideological dominance of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism. By the Qing Dynasty, it had reached its peak, violating ethics and morals, and failing to pay taxes on time.
They will also be chopped alive! From this, it is not difficult to see that the main function of beheading is to maintain the rule of the feudal famous religion and use the most cruel means to intimidate the common people into being obedient people!
Yunfeng's crucifixion on Liu Xia, on the surface, does not damage the body and seems to be more humane. It is in line with the long tradition of scholars that a complete body should be left alive even after death. (.) However, death by crucifixion takes a long time and is painful.
The level is not weaker than that of beheading, and he has a very strong concealment, which is not enough to make people regard Yunfeng as a tyrant.
Often the execution cases of past dynasties will be carefully preserved by historians as examples of cruel and terrifying tyrants. Yunfeng naturally does not want to be recorded in history, saying that so and so was beheaded alive on such and such a day in such and such a year and month.
.Although it is cruel to exterminate an entire clan and use a person’s head as a ball to kick, how can it be better than killing a living person?
In fact, in Yunfeng's view, although Confucianism and Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism both belong to the category of Confucianism, the former is obviously broader than the latter. The main purpose of Confucianism is the divine right of kings and to promote the legitimacy of the monarch's family and the world. Those who hold different political opinions are mostly punished verbally and writtenly.
The main form of attack was, of course, the disaster of party control in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. It was not a common phenomenon. It was precisely because of this that it caused the collapse of Confucian classics and provided the possibility for the rise of metaphysics.
However, Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism is more reflected in the suppression of human nature, preserving the laws of nature and destroying human nature, pushing the Three Cardinal Guidelines and the Five Permanent Constitutions to an unparalleled height. The slightest disobedience will be completely obliterated with the most cruel methods.
Before the Tang Dynasty, during the stable period of the previous dynasties, killings were almost not followed in the name of religion. Scholars and common people had relative opinions about freedom. There was a man named Bao Jingyan in the Eastern Jin Dynasty who advocated the theory of no monarch and preached that there is no monarch and no government.
In a fu society, where people are not burdened by corvee, rent, or taxes, they have sufficient food and clothing inside, and there is no snobbery outside. It can be said that this is the simplest political thought. It is likely that Marx and Engels were inspired by him. This person
However, he did not suffer any political persecution. Only Ge Hong came forward to refute his views. However, Yunfeng has not yet found this person.
Although the Sima family conquered the world with **** and was criticized on a moral level, they did not dare to risk the world by using religion to kill people. For example, Ji Kang sympathized with Cao Wei politically, was dissolute, criticized current affairs, and repeatedly
Sima Zhao, who was the general at the time, was offended. Even so, Sima Zhao still framed the charge of treason by killing Ji Kang. Zhong Hui came forward and used Guanqiu Jian as an opportunity to rebel. Only by falsely accusing Ji Kang of joining the army was it considered valid.
An excuse.
However, since Zhu Xi in the Southern Song Dynasty promoted Neo-Confucianism, famous religion has become a tool for killing people. It is precisely because of Zhu Xi's Neo-Confucianism that China's tolerance and generosity since the Han and Tang Dynasties began to be gradually replaced by layers of shackles. This is a tragedy in the history of human development.
, is also a great setback in the history of human civilization. It is no exaggeration to say that the rigidity of China’s social structure and ideology originated in the Southern Song Dynasty.
Yun Feng has always regarded himself as a fighter against Mingjiao, and he did not cut Liu Xia in fear of causing notoriety. Another important reason was that he did not take the cut as a murder weapon of Cheng and Zhu Lixue. However, he also knew that
Confucianism is an effective tool to maintain the monarch's centralized rule. Although he himself rejected Confucianism, what about his descendants? Will the ruling class hundreds of years later regain the wisdom of Confucianism? After all, Confucianism's views on joining the world are deeply loved by scholars.
Likes.
Yunfeng can't guarantee it. He believes that in order to completely eliminate the influence of Confucianism, the most basic theoretical basis of Confucianism must be overturned, that is, the geocentric theory of a round sky and a square place, and the development of modern astronomy. The modern scientific system is built on the basis of astronomy.
. He couldn't help but think of Zhuge Fei's father, Zhuge Xian. It was said that Zhuge Xian was good at observing astronomical phenomena. If he had his own suggestions, would Zhuge Xian establish the theory of iris?
Just as he was searching for the life story of Copernicus in his mind, Yunfeng suddenly felt a murderous intention locked on him. He subconsciously turned around and saw Su Jun standing in the distance with nearly a hundred followers.
Not daring to come over, he immediately smiled and cupped his hands: "General Su, do you want to avenge Liu Xia?"
Su Jun said with a cold face: "I don't dare take revenge, but General Yun brutally killed General Liu in front of everyone. Jun will remember this today."
Yunfeng said casually: "Oh? That's up to you. Please remember that you only have one chance to take revenge. If you miss it, you know the consequences. Also, I would like to remind General Su, please maintain military discipline and do not commit any offenses against me.
On hand."
As he said that, he ignored Su Gujun's angry and blue face and saluted to the top of the city: "Your Majesty, I will retire now. Please take care of yourself!" Then he turned around and waved his hand: "The rear team becomes the front team.
Let's go!" Following the order, sporadic sounds of horse hoofbeats began, and the eight thousand knights gradually rode off into the distance.
This time, Sima Shao was surprisingly not angry. Perhaps he was no longer angry. There was a trace of fear on his face, and he stared blankly at the direction of the cavalry.
It's quiet, but is everyone's heart as good as it seems? I'm afraid only you know. Farming is in full swing, and the market is gradually showing some vitality. Except for the lack of some rich people, everyone else
As before.
**** returned half a month later. When he went there, there were only two thousand horse-drawn carriages, but when he came back, there were more than a thousand four-horse carriages. During his trip, he turned around Shen Chong's house, except for
The iron money was not given up to the land that could not be taken away. The remaining gold, silver, copper coins, cloth and grain were all looted. The grain and cloth that could not be packed were distributed to the servants and tenants of Shen Chong's family nearby. Everyone had a share.
The bowl is full.
This is not because the police have a high level of consciousness, but because the manpower is limited. Each of the guards drives a car, and someone has to lead the horses, and then arrange for the men to disperse and guard, so this is the only way.
As for the singing and dancing girls that Yunfeng specially confessed, none of them were left behind. After repeatedly preaching the policy and wooing the soldiers freely, except for nearly a hundred who were unwilling to marry the personal guards and planned to follow back first to see the situation, the rest including concubines
Nearly eight hundred women were already married to famous beauties on the way, and the guards who did not win the favor of the beauties could only look forward to the next battle. They would rather wait than marry ordinary people who were not beautiful but had an innocent fortune.
woman.
In Yunfeng's previous life, a boring person once launched a boring investigation. Two women, one was the virgin Feng Jie and the other was Hatano Yui, asked who they would marry. As a result, all the men involved did not even think about it.
The choice of Hatano Yui
!When it comes to the personal guards, it adds a sense of comparison. It doesn't matter if someone crosses you, but no one wants their wife to be an ugly woman, and they can't afford to embarrass her in front of their colleagues. In the end, Yunfeng is still used to it.
