When Jiang Liniang spoke, Shi Jun just listened quietly. After she finished speaking, he answered her questions one by one.
"She certainly doesn't have to accept her fate. She certainly doesn't have to comply. She certainly can resist."
"Those who were harmed because of her resistance were not essentially harmed by her."
"The cold and twisted system was like a dense rope inlaid with iron thorns, which tied her tightly, leaving her unable to struggle. She could only be forced to wait for her fate, so when she chose to break free from the rope, the rope bounced The moment the car is opened, it will inevitably hurt the person holding the rope. How should we blame her in such a situation?"
"Whether it's just her, or the master who is passively harmed, from inflicting harm, to being forced to bear the harm, to even breaking away from the rope, and the master being injured by the stabbing on the rope, this series of actions , neither the victim nor the person who inflicted the harm may know what happened."
"Most people can only see the shallowest surface - a daring slave wants to climb into the male master's bed. She succeeds and becomes a thorn in the mistress's flesh. Or she fails and is punished. Got killed. That's all."
Jiang Liniang murmured: "Is that so?"
Shi Yun said: "My opinion is this."
Jiang Liniang looked at him closely: "But teacher, if that's the case, what does the saint say about Chang Chang? Isn't Qinghong's behavior a treasonous act? Why do you think her resistance is a sign of her ability? Where’s the accuracy?!”
After hearing this, Shi Jun smiled instead: "Didn't I tell you that when we met on the first day? The principles of a saint are essentially just a combination of laws and regulations that maintain the movement of the world. It’s just a system of etiquette.”
He said earnestly: "Liniang, this system has never been static. Who do you think has the most respected status in this system?"
Jiang Liniang said without thinking, "It's the emperor."
Shi Yun said: "So, have emperors existed since ancient times?"
Jiang Liniang sniffed: "...You are so rebellious, teacher!"
Shi Jun didn't take it seriously: "What kind of rebellion is this? When Confucius appeared, there was only the Emperor of Zhou in the world, where was the emperor? Since the 'emperor' will appear, of course he will also die. This is not a matter of course." Love?"
Jiang Liniang was stunned.
Teacher, how dare you!
You're the one who came through it, right?
While Jiang Liniang was dumbfounded, Shi Jun continued: "This system has never been perfect, so it needs continuous filling and changes from future generations. But it is relatively perfect, because it does guarantee the safety of the world. As long as it operates smoothly, most people can survive. Qinghong is a victim of the imperfections of this system. To a certain extent, there is no difference between Han and her. . There is no difference between me and her."
"Qinghong is a slave of the Sun family, isn't it Han? The chain around Qinghong's neck is in Han's hands, but doesn't Han himself have a chain on his neck?"
"When have you ever seen a man staring at his maids at home all day long? Did he crawl into his wife's bed? What made Mr. Han trapped in the inner house, staring at the maids to see if they crawled onto her husband's bed? bed?"
"The shackles that bind Qinghong actually bind the Han family, the women of the world, and even many weak people. They have no way to advance, no future, and will always be on the chopping block. The fish on the road can only go to death on the set path. Once they deviate from the path designated by this system, they will be like a fish jumping out of the water and coming to land. The ending that awaits them is endless. It speaks for itself.”
"...By extension, aren't the common people in the world also the slaves and maids of the Tian family? I am just a higher-ranking Han family and Qinghong. But the princes, generals, ministers, etc. Who is born wanting to be inferior to others?"
"In this case, Qinghong wants to resist, what's her fault?"
"Of course there is no perfect system in this world, and laws and regulations are perfected year by year. However, in terms of the vastness of the Central Plains and the endless sea areas, the powerful central government unifies the political situation, and even the various strategies implemented today. It is indeed the most suitable for today’s world.”
He looked emotional and sighed: "As for what will happen after thousands of years, it is a matter for later people. I will definitely not be able to see it in my lifetime. Every time I think about this, I feel like I can’t help but sigh with regret!”
Speaking of this, Shi Yun looked meaningfully at the closed disciple in front of him.
Jiang Liniang lowered her head guiltily and tried to change the subject: "Teacher, isn't this back to the original question? Where is the green and red road?"
This time, Shi Jun clearly told her his answer: "I don't know."
Jiang Liniang was stunned: "Ah? You don't know?"
"Yeah, I don't know."
Shi Yun looked at her honestly and said, "I am a human being, not a god."
"But I think," he said with a leisurely smile: "Maybe one day, you will tell me the answer."
Jiang Liniang was completely confused.
What might the answer be?
What will be the green and red road?
She comes from later generations and has witnessed every political system that existed in history in the book, but she only knows the final result, but does not know how the final result was deduced.
Especially when the starting point falls on a teenage slave who doesn't attract attention.
You can't just shout "long live the people" and then directly rise up, right?
Isn’t this just delivering food on your own, and then being caught and hacked to death in seconds?
As Shi Yun said, she is a human being, not a god. How could she act like a chariot and go against the grain of the entire era?
When Jiang Liniang thought of this, her mind suddenly moved.
Why can't we rise up?
Because there is no basis for an uprising.
There is no mass foundation, organizational foundation, or economic foundation. How can we hold high the banner of long live the people?
The emergence of ideology may precede the process of productivity, but the success of its fruits can never be separated from the promotion of productivity levels!
The economic base determines the superstructure - the fundamental reason is still insufficient productivity!
Jiang Liniang looked at Shi Yun with bright eyes, organized her thoughts into easy-to-understand language, and carefully revealed them to him.
Of course she knew that food had to be eaten one bite at a time, and that changes in social form could not be achieved overnight and would take a hundred years or even longer, but she came to this world once. , at least leave something behind, right?
Even if it is just to cut off one year from those hundreds of years, it will be enough!
After hearing this, Shi Jun smiled and shook his head, unable to tell whether he agreed or disagreed.
He just said: "Then go and do it."
Seeing this, Jiang Liniang felt a little uneasy: "Teacher, you seem to feel..."
Shi Yun said: "Don't worry about what I, a rotten person, think, just follow your own path. Liniang, don't erase the most precious thing in you."
The most precious thing about me...
Jiang Liniang remembered what Shi Jun said when the two met for the first time, and she seemed to have some realization: "Do you want to resist?"
Shi Jun no longer talked about this matter, but asked her: "Have you ever thought about giving yourself a name? After a while, some of my old friends may come to visit, and their disciples I'll probably come too, calling Li Niang, Li Niang, always feels more intimate and less solemn."
Jiang Liniang immediately said: "I don't want to change the name, but I want to change my name."
Shi Jun said "Oh" in surprise: "You seem to have already thought about what to call me?"
Jiang Liniang said: "My name is Jiang Xing."
Shi Yun said: "Which word is it?"
Jiang Liniang said: "It's the 'walk' that has difficulty traveling."
This was her name in her previous life.
This commemorates Jiang Xing, who was as free as the wind in her previous life, and the world that allowed her to travel through.
Also tell her to always remember what she was like in the past.
No matter what, don't lose your heart.
Shi Jun thoughtfully said: "Whether it's 'traveling is difficult' or 'reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles', Jiang Xing..."
…
People can't help but talk about it.
Shi Yun had just said that old friends might come to visit him in the near future, and that afternoon, someone sent him a greeting card.
But it's not Shi Yun's old friend, but his enemy Geng Zhang.
Jiang Liniang's brother and sister didn't know these things, so Senior Brother Shen Kuo Shen taught them a lesson in a low voice: "Mr. Geng and the teacher are old acquaintances, but they don't talk the same way. Every time they meet, they will quarrel soon, but Geng Gong's character is no problem, and his disciples are all outstanding..."
"Hey," he said, "you'll know when we meet later."
Senior Brother Zheng Gui Zheng told them: "Although these two fight like black-eyed chickens every time they meet, they still admire each other's abilities. Every time they accept a disciple, they will call him to the other party's house. I have been taught for a while."
Speaking of this, he pondered: "This time Mr. Geng took the initiative to come to the door. Could it be that he has accepted a new disciple and wants to bring him to the teacher to have a look?"
Jiang Ning reacted immediately as if she had been stabbed: "Doesn't this mean that the three of us will also go to Gong Geng's house to be taught in the future?"
"That's right," Shen Kuo looked at them pitifully: "If you dare to disgrace our master, your legs will be discounted!"
Jiang Ning: "..."
Jiang Ning raised her hand to wipe her sweat and weakly promised: "I, I will try my best."
Jiang Liniang: "..."
Yuan Niang: "..."
well.
…
Zheng Gui guessed wrong.
This time, Geng Zhang came to show off his proud disciple.
Not long ago, Geng Zhangzhuang felt sulky at home when Jin Yu came to visit.
Shi Jun upheld justice, and the little man on the back came to ask him to make the decision. Although it was Jin Yu who was causing trouble from beginning to end, he always felt uncomfortable in his heart, as if he had lost to his old enemy in vain. It looks like a head.
At this time, Geng Zhang's favorite protégé Pei Renfang returned to Beijing, and he immediately brought it out as a limited edition leather bag to show off to his old enemy.
When Jiang Liniang passed by with several senior brothers, she saw at a glance that the words on the top of her teacher's head had changed, from "hit the noble man" to the moving subtitles "Good luck, lose! Good luck, lose." Got it!"...
Jiang Liniang: "..."
Teacher, are you a child? !
Do you want this?
How come you are so angry even at this age?
Look at Shi Jun's face again - the old man's usually proud and upturned beard has drooped down. He is sitting on a chair. Although his shoulders and back are still very straight, his expression is still strong. He was standing, but the corners of his eyes and eyebrows showed a bit of dejection.
Jiang Liniang suddenly felt uncomfortable.
The teacher was kicked out of his home. This is because the disciple is incompetent!
Over there, Geng Zhang was still selling melons to Wang Po: "He who passed the first prize but did not stay in the court to study books, but took the initiative to go to a remote place to engage in politics. Yuzhi is the first one in this dynasty!"
Shi Jun: "..."
Shi Jun weakly pulled the disciple out: "I have almost finished compiling the history of the country. This is to carry on the unique knowledge for the saint!"
