prosperous national teacher

In front of Su Yi, Yi Ran is a very sensible, straightforward and good boy, but in front of outsiders, he is very arrogant and domineering.Before, there were many elders from the previous dynasty who wanted to support him in the fight for the crown prince, but after seeing Yi Ran like this, they gave up.However, after Yi Ran was "taught" by Su Yi, she stopped wearing a mask and started to do things seriously, and some veterans or speculators from the former dynasty wanted to make trouble.

In response to this, Yi Ran waved his whip again, announcing to everyone that even though we are sensible, our arrogant and domineering temperament has not changed.

Yi Ran has always been in charge of the promotion of new grains. This time, His Majesty the Emperor transferred Yi Ran to Qingzhou under the pretext of promoting corn in Qingzhou.After all, salt or something is still too sensitive.

Although Yi Ran's mother's status was embarrassing, and the cause of death was also embarrassing, but Yi Ran was still very favored. In recent years, anyone with eyes has seen it.Moreover, those who wanted to provoke the relationship between Yi Ran and the prince found that although the two were fighting each other anytime and anywhere, if someone attacked any of them, the other person would immediately change their target and beat the outsider first.

Of course, many people think that this is because they are still young. When they grow up, Yi Ran knows the taste of power, and her relationship with the crown prince will deteriorate.

Let's not mention this for now.I just want to explain that although the second prince has never been crowned king, the emperor's love for him is obvious to all, and no one will despise him.The reason why he didn't become a king was because the emperor was still thinking about whether the prince would be granted the title of king. If he didn't, how would he get back the kings who were granted by the local clans.

Therefore, it was smooth sailing for Yi Ran to come to Qingzhou.Let’s talk about what happens when we do things later, but nothing should happen during the journey.

But Su Yi was really surprised that Yi Ran broke a human leg.

"Who would provoke the second prince with such lack of eyes?" Su Yi asked curiously.

Mu Yan leaned on Su Yi's shoulder and said, "Why didn't you know that he was the one who took the initiative to find trouble?"

Su Yi looked at Mu Yan and said nothing.

Mu Yan snorted coldly, and said: "Because the carriage broke down, I stayed at the inn for an extra day. His Royal Highness the Second Prince went out for a stroll and rescued a person who was beaten up. As a result, the beating dude didn't have eyes. If you fight with His Royal Highness the Second Prince, you will hit the iron plate."

Su Yi opened his eyes wide and said, "The one who saved was a beautiful woman?"

Mu Yan said: "A man."

Su Yi said suspiciously: "With the character of His Royal Highness the Second Prince, he should not take the initiative to find trouble."

"Then you have to ask him to find out." Mu Yan said.

Su Yi thought for a while and said, "Since this kind of thing has happened, should we pick it up...Well, you are busy with work, and there are many people staring at you, so let me go."

Mu Yan said: "I was planning to go, so I went to take care of his aftermath."

Su Yi laughed: "Yes, this matter still needs to be dealt with. Even the prince can't beat people indiscriminately. Besides, the second prince has a serious business to do when he comes to Qingzhou."

Mu Yan said: "You mean, you will go when I go?"

Su Yi said: "At the saltworks, they just need to slowly explore how to increase production; at the glass workshop, craftsmen have also found a way to increase production and quality; at the shipyard, they are still studying new blueprints; as for weapons That's where you are concerned. I'm fine anyway, most of the experimental equipment is blocked on the road with His Royal Highness the Second Prince, so I'll go too."

Most of the things at home were not taken with me when I left, and they were slowly transported by water after the beginning of spring.When Yi Ran came here this time, she was on the way, and someone could help escort her.

Although Mu Yan doesn't want Su Yi and Yi Ran to meet at all, but they have to meet sooner or later, and if he sees Su Yi sooner or later, there seems to be no difference on the premise that he can't see Su Yi himself.Mu Yan agreed.

When something like this happened to Yi Ran, as the governor of a state and the emperor's trusted vassal, it was normal for Mu Yan to go to meet Yi Ran and erase the negative impact of this incident.

The place where Yi Ran stayed was half a day away from the state capital.That night, Su Yi met Yi Ran.Yi Ran is in good spirits, and she doesn't feel guilty at all for hitting someone.

I really don't feel guilty at all...

"What's the matter? Who made you so angry?" When Su Yi got off the carriage, Yi Ran was waiting in the courtyard of the inn she had hired.

When seeing Su Yi, Yi Ran was obviously surprised: "Master Daoist, why are you here?"

Su Yi narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Let's see what trouble you have caused."

Now that Su Yi came, Yi Ran didn't bother to be polite to Mu Yan, and immediately approached Su Yi with a smile, took Su Yi's arm and said, "Isn't he just a person with short eyes. It's cold outside, the Taoist priest, come in quickly sit."

Mu Yan followed behind the two, sighing depressingly.

That's why he didn't deal with Yi Ran.

"I went out for a casual stroll, and when I saw people gathering to fight, I went over to have a look out of curiosity, who knew it was a group of people beating one person." Yi Ran poured water for Su Yi himself, and Su Yi took it with a smile.

"Then you saw injustice and drew your sword to help?" Su Yi said, "I have never seen you so passionate."

Yi Ran raised her eyebrows and said, "Who let me hear that kid's mouth is dirty."

Su Yi laughed and said, "Who arranged it?"

"It must be you." Mu Yan interjected, "The person whose legs were broken by His Highness the Second Prince's anger, and who dared to talk nonsense, is you."

Yi Ran nodded and said, "I'm really tired of working."

Su Yi said earnestly: "I'm just a little Taoist priest. If you believe me, you will be close. If you don't believe me, you will be humiliated. There is nothing to be angry about. Even if you are His Majesty, there will be people whispering behind your back. Even if you are a saint, there will be people who don't like or respect him." Man, why are you so angry?"

"It won't work if I hear it." Yi Ran thought to himself, who made that person's mouth dirty, saying that Su Yi has no skills, that Su Yi followed Mu Yan like this, in fact, he was Mu Yan's male favorite, maybe it was Mu Yan who dedicated it to him Your Majesty, the male favorite shared by the two of them.When Yi Ran heard this, she only crippled the man's leg, which was very restrained.

However, he would never say these words and dirty Su Yi's ears.

Thinking of this, Yi Ran gave Mu Yan a gloomy look.

Mu Yan glanced at Yi Ran calmly, then looked away.

The matter between him and Su Yi had been known to the empress for a long time, and she had already acquiesced.After all, he had already decided not to have an heir, and Su Yi also did not want to have an heir because he was afraid of trouble. Since the two of them don't need an heir, it doesn't matter if a man falls in love.

In this era, it is not uncommon to have a broken sleeve and divide a peach, but it just needs an heir.Since the step of heirs is saved, the hostess does not need to have one.

In this era, there are many people who never marry for life.

It's just that the empress asked Mu Yan to keep this matter a secret, and not to make Su Yi feel aggrieved.If there is even the slightest rumor, both the emperor and the empress will stop it.

The crown prince and Yi Ran also knew about this matter. Although they were very dissatisfied, the empress said that in the end it was up to Su Yi herself. If Su Yi wanted to, then don’t interfere. A few traces of depression and resentment.

Speaking of which, the emperor's family is more enlightened than modern times in this respect, but this is based on the extreme guilt towards Su Yi.

Su Yi said to himself that he would not marry a wife or have any heirs. The emperor and empress family believed that Su Yi was worried that there would be problems if his eldest son's identity was exposed by someone who wanted to.After many persuasions by the empress to no avail, she thought that if Su Yi had someone who would accompany her for the rest of her life, it wouldn't matter whether it was a man or a woman.What's more, Mu Yan himself is very good, and he can also help Su Yi.

This mentality is probably similar to marrying a daughter.

Although Yi Ran knew about Mu Yan and Su Yi, no one knew about it except their family and Mu Yan himself.But hearing this kind of remarks, I still feel angry in my heart.

When Mu Yan knew that Yi Ran had "caused trouble", he knew why that person's leg was broken.He came this time to clean up the mess for Yi Ran, and also to settle accounts.

As for Yi Ran's dissatisfaction with him and Su Yi, he didn't care as long as Su Yi himself agreed.

Su Yi was very curious about what the man had said bad things about him, but Yi Ran didn't say anything.

Mu Yan said: "It probably means that you are trying to gain fame, or that you are a charlatan."

Su Yi said: "Some people in Beijing used to say this a lot, I thought you were used to it."

Yi Ran followed Mu Yan's words and said, "The past was the past, and the present is the present. Can it be the same? Now the Taoist priest is a celestial master personally appointed by the imperial court, and there are still people talking nonsense."

Su Yi said: "Feel free. He Qing, how should we deal with this matter?"

Mu Yan said: "Beating someone is a violation of the king's law, and insulting the heavenly master is an even more serious crime, and disturbing and trying to attack His Highness the Second Prince is even more serious crime. Naturally, I will ask the teacher personally."

Yi Ran said coldly, "I'll go too."

Su Yi pointed to himself: "Shall I go?"

Mu Yan said helplessly: "Of course you won't go."

How could Su Yi go about being a villain?

Su Yi complained: "You guys must talk all day, then I am bored."

Yi Ran said: "The man I rescued was also in the inn, saying that he came to seek refuge with the Celestial Master. I chatted with the man, and I heard that his ancestors seemed to be descendants of the Mohist family. He came to seek refuge with the Taoist priest this time, because he brought a The book "Mozi" that has been lost among the people."

Because in the chat with Su Yi, Yi Ran once heard that Su Yi said that no matter what Mozi thought, he was beneficial to the development of science and technology. It is a pity that "Mozi" was lost.Therefore, after hearing what the man said, Yi Ran deliberately left him in the inn to recuperate, and said that he would take him to see Su Yi directly.

Yi Ran thought that Su Yi would definitely be interested in this gift.

Su Yi was indeed very interested.It was late today, and the man was injured again, so it was inconvenient for him to disturb him.He decided to meet the man the next day.It would be better if the man had something with him, so he wouldn't be bored that day.It would be even better if that person's injuries improved, and we could have a chat.

On the second day, Mu Yan and Yi Ran went to the Xingshi's house to question their crimes.Breaking someone's leg and still being so arrogant, abominable ruling class.Su Yi, on the other hand, went to see the suspected heir of the Mohist school who was going to join him with great interest.

Mohism was a school as famous as Confucianism and Taoism in the pre-Qin period.Even in the period of Mencius, Mohism was more influential than Confucianism, and because of its many times of thinking and Confucianism, it was the biggest enemy of Confucianism.In the book, Mencius attacked Mohism many times, so you can think of the influence of Mohism at that time.

At that time, Mozi was a great sage who was as famous as Confucius, and even more famous than Confucius.

However, at the turn of the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Mohism declined.When Sima Qian wrote "Historical Records", the Mohists even disappeared. Even Sima Qian, who wrote historical materials so detailed that he suspected that he was lying under the emperor's bed and peeping on the beams every day, found that he could write very little.

As one of the earliest scientific groups in ancient China, Mohism, Su Yi was of course very interested in Mohist legends.The sudden disappearance of the Mohists may have something to do with the fact that they were too close a group. Although they were easy to form a group, they were also easy to be wiped out. It must have something to do with the fact that his thoughts were difficult for the emperors and the people at that time to accept.

Su Yi thought that there was no trace of the Mohist school at this time, but he didn't expect that there were still Mohist heirs who came to vote, and I heard that they still brought the complete Mohist classics, how could this make Su Yi not happy.

I don't know if the Mohism is as magical as it is said in the legend, and has produced many advanced instruments.

When Su Yi came to the man's room, the man just woke up.

The man's name was Yang Huan, and he looked quite young, but his hands were covered with calluses, as if he had worked a lot.Yang Huan's clothes have changed, but according to people's words, although Yang Huan's clothes are not very luxurious, they don't look bad.

Since Yi Ran had already saved him, he naturally told him to take good care of him.Every day Yang Huan is delivered food and water, and someone helps to wipe his body and hair.So when Su Yi saw Yang Huan, Yang Huan looked neat and tidy.Although his face was pale, he was in good spirits.

When Su Yi entered the room, Yang Huan thought it was Yi Ranli who was about to salute, but when he found that it was a young man in a long gown, he was immediately puzzled.

"Poverty Dao Su Yi." Su Yi cut to the chase, "Lady Yang, is your health better?"

Yang Huan was shocked and immediately struggled to salute.

"You don't need to be too polite, it won't be good if the wound is opened. Pindao is just an ordinary Taoist priest." Su Yi motioned others to hold Yang Huan down and let him lie down again.

Yang Huan smiled wryly and said, "It's really embarrassing for Tianshi to see Caomin in such a mess."

Su Yi smiled and said, "The embarrassing one should be the perpetrator. Why should the victim be embarrassed?"

Yang Huan frowned, and said: "Heavenly Master Gao De, it's a grassroots figure."

Su Yi said: "Are you a descendant of the Mo family?"

Yang Huan said, "Exactly."

Su Yi said with emotion: "I heard that the Mo family has not been out of the world for many years, and I thought I had no chance to see them."

Yang Huan smiled honestly: "Actually, I have been walking outside, but not in the name of the Mohist school. After all, the times have changed."

Su Yi nodded, stopped mentioning this matter, and instead asked about Yang Huan's coming to vote this time.

The Mohist thought was not liked by the king. When Qin unified, the Mohist suffered heavy losses and temporarily hibernated.After the Western Han Dynasty dominated Confucianism, the Mohist school, which was singled out by Mencius and criticized many times, was naturally hit again.

Now Mohism, in fact, no longer mentions Mohist thought, only inherits Mohist skills.

In fact, this trend already appeared in the late pre-Qin Mohist period.Mohism has changed from respecting ghosts and gods to simple materialism, from writing books to starting to study tools.

This probably has something to do with the fact that the Mohists have always been very pragmatic.At that time, wars became more and more frequent, and the Mo family was busy making various instruments to resist Qin's attacks.

But Qin finally swept Liuhe, no matter how superb his skills are, he can't stop the car with his arms.

Now there are only a dozen or so kittens left in the orthodox successors of the Mohist school. These people don't talk about ideas, they just want to find a reliable person to pass on the classics of the Mohist school to this day.If this continues, it will be difficult to say whether the classics of the Mohist school will still exist in the world after their generation disappears.

If there is no group to help each other, it is difficult to preserve so many things with only one person and one family.

The Mo family is now at a critical moment of life and death, and they only hope to pass things on.Even if no one sees it, no one learns it, at least let future generations know that there used to be such a school, with so many amazing talents that are as stunning as Confucianism and Taoism, once existed in the world.

Now there is no printing technology. Although books have gradually become paper, which is much more convenient, books are still copied by hand, and it is very difficult to circulate them.If these books are to be circulated, they must all be turned into paper books, and not just one.People from the Mo family have been doing this kind of work, but it is too difficult for them alone, they can only hope that the rich and powerful are willing to help.

But in the Han Dynasty, Confucianism was the most respected. Although Confucianism is not the only one now, it is also a revival of Taoism.And which rich and powerful person has a liking for the Mohist family?

But even if the hope is slim, they still hope to try it.

As for why they found Su Yi, it was probably because what Su Yi was doing now was in line with their Mohist thoughts, and they guessed that Su Yi might be interested in some things of the Mohist school.Moreover, Su Yi is a Taoist priest. Although the relationship between Taoism and Mohism is not good, it is not bad. Zhuangzi once evaluated Mozi fairly and objectively.

So after discussing, they thought that maybe Su Tianshi would be more willing to help them than other dignitaries.If Su Tianshi is willing to help them, maybe they can be used by the court.Even if you teach craftsmen and make all kinds of equipment, you can still give what you have learned to the people systematically.

Now the Mohists are not staying behind closed doors, they are all using their personal identities to gradually apply what they have learned to the world.

A group of simple ancient scientists.

Although the Mo family felt that they had little hope when they made this decision.Su Tianshi has such a high status, how could he receive these unknown pawns, not to mention Mu Yan who is standing in his way.Those who heard that Su Tianshi was receiving them would be screened by Mu Yan, the governor of Qingzhou.It is rumored that no one in Qingzhou has seen Su Tianshi, so how can they see him?

Although Yang Huan is young, his skills and knowledge are the best in the Mo family, and he is also the most eloquent person in the Mo family.The Mo family handed over the probing job to Yang Huan, but they didn't know that Yang Huan interrupted when he was listening to people insulting and slandering Su Yi in the restaurant, and was almost beaten to death.

But it's a blessing in disguise, and you know it's not a blessing.The person who saved Yang Huan was actually the second prince Yi Ran.And Yi Ran promised to take Yang Huan to see Su Yi, which made Yang Huan feel that the beating was really worth it.

With the recommendation of the second prince, if he can meet Su Tianshi, the plan will be half successful.As for the remaining half, it is up to fate.

But Yang Huan obviously had better luck.He didn't expect Su Tianshi to come in person, and even had a good chat with him.Even Su Tianshi knew a thing or two about Mohism.

"Your idea is very good, but others can't do it." Su Yi sighed, "Since you know that people in the world are after profit, you know that they can't 'love' at the same time, let alone 'offensive'. And everyone in the world has Laziness, even hardworking people, is for a better and more comfortable life. If the purpose of labor is only labor, then no one is willing to labor. Throughout the ages, only great sages and great sages can only give and not enjoy. But how can everyone be a sage?"

Yang Huan didn't feel offended when he heard this, but just smiled wryly.

He could tell that Su Yi had no objection to the Mohist thought, but it was too ideal to be realized.This is no offense.

In fact, why doesn't the Mo family know?But just like the Datong world that Confucius once described, they only put forward their own ideal world.The reason why it is called an ideal world is that they themselves know that reality does not exist.

"Tianshi, can the ideas of the Mohists be realized in the future?" Yang Huan asked a question that he wanted to know but was afraid to know.

Su Yi thought for a while, and said: "Actually, regardless of Confucianism, Taoism, Mohism, Legalism, etc., the ideal world they dreamed of will not be realized in the future. After all, people are selfish and cannot achieve the ideal world."

Yang Huan stared blankly, and said, "Really..."

Su Yi said: "Yes. But in the future, it is not possible to integrate the ideas of various schools and absorb the strengths of various schools. But in today's terms, it is infinitely close. High or low, in the future, it will almost come true, at least everyone will have a chance. However, people with status will definitely have a higher starting point. After all, they have different connections. However, people with a low starting point are not without opportunities. At that time, national leaders Elected. Of course, status capital power itself must be necessary to be the leader of the country, but at least it is not hereditary."

"The future may still not be an ideal society, but as long as the society does not encounter major disasters to interrupt the process, it will always be progressing." Su Yi smiled and said, "It must be much better than modern times. If you were born 2000 years later, your status will be higher." It's completely different."

Scientists.

Yang Huan couldn't help but smiled wryly: "Is the Celestial Master comforting the grassroots?"

Su Yi said: "Believe it if you believe it, and don't believe it if you don't believe it. Does Pindao need to comfort anyone? Pindao is hitting you. You were born 2000 years earlier."

Yang Huan was silent for a long time, and then laughed out loud, tears came out: "I believe! I believe! As long as the future recognizes our Mohist family, what does it matter even in 2000?! Our Mohisthism will eventually be recognized by others. remember!"

Su Yi smiled and said, "That's natural. Don't worry about it at all."

The Mo family is also a big hit in film and television novels.
