- Su Xi carefully recalled her impression of the Spring and Autumn Environment, and summed it up in one sentence, the Spring and Autumn Environment is a virtuous circle.
In that era, the upper class remembered how they rose and knew where they came from.
And the strict etiquette system caused by the shortage of food and supplies also promoted everyone's recognition of the rules.
Thinking of this, Su Xi suddenly said:
"Big sage, the strict etiquette in the Spring and Autumn Period should be caused by the shortage of food and supplies."
"There is enough storage, and knowing etiquette is also based on this point."
When Su Xi said this, everyone was stunned.
There seems to be something wrong with the etiquette caused by the shortage of food and supplies
The son of heaven eats too much food, and he has all three animals: cattle, sheep, and pigs. The princes eat cattle, the ministers eat sheep, the officials eat pigs, the scholars eat broiled fish, and the common people eat vegetables.
Confucius wrote in Qi Guoji "Shao" that he didn't know the taste of meat in March.
Mencius also wrote that people at seventy can eat meat, and later expressed that if the people can eat meat every meal, the world will enter a prosperous and prosperous age.
Sufficient storage and etiquette also come from here.
And as we all know, the Zhou Dynasty was extremely disgusted with the desire for food and drink, and then planned the types of food eaten by each class in a complete manner.
Everyone knows these rules. Now that Su Xi said that there was a shortage of food and supplies, everyone suddenly felt that the high-level etiquette system seemed to be a bit cheap
Confucius was choked, and then smiled wryly.

"Although what you said is ugly, it is true. There is not enough food and supplies."
"The so-called Tailao is actually a random stew of beef, mutton and pork."
The corners of Confucius' eyes twitched as he spoke.
This is what frustrates him the most.
Do you think that the aristocrats in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period lived a life of indulgence?
Do you think that this is the era when rich men's wine and meat stink and the roads are frozen to death?
Do you think those nobles are singing and singing every night, playing different tricks every day?
Fuck it.
The reason why the etiquette and law here are made so high and so strict is because of one root cause: poverty.
When the emperor sacrifices, he can only eat one meal too fast, and you will know how poor you are.
And the reason for this is because he set an example.
It may be too exaggerated to say in the history books that King Zhou¡¯s wine pool and meat forest, but in the Shang and Zhou dynasties, if the king blindly enjoyed it, such as eating too much meat and drinking too much, it would cause dissatisfaction among the people.
People don't eat meat once in a lifetime, they don't know the taste of meat, and they dare not eat meat. This will really happen in this era.
Meat eaters are despicable, and you can know it when you directly refer to the nobles.
This is the most realistic thing.
As a great thinker in the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucius, aristocrats, upper-class interests, and countless wise men, knew these fundamentals best

"The more things you pay attention to, the poorer the country is. There is some truth in this sentence."
"Prohibition of meat, unified distribution, and limited scope can not show high status, but can only say that the country is poor."
"Food and clothing are always the place that best reflects national strength."
Confucius sighed.
If the upper echelons of a country are singing and singing every night, but the country is still running smoothly, and people can see meat in their bowls, then the country is strong and prosperous.
If a country pays attention to that every day, and restricts the purchase of this kind of meat today, and the purchase of clothes tomorrow, then for the country, no matter how frugal it is, it is dangerous

"Tsk, that is to say, Ji Chang in history, faced with the lack of national strength, he chose to restrict by division."
King Zhou smiled mockingly.
In his view, Ji Chang did not completely solve the predicament of the last years of the Shang Dynasty
Confucius frowned and smiled helplessly.

"There were many difficulties, and enfeoffment only solved part of the problem. In fact, there was still a part of the problem at that time, that is, the lack of national power."
"The enfeoffment is destined to have a group of nobles, and the people at the bottom, that is, the cornerstone, cannot reproduce quickly. In the words of later generations, the birth rate of fetuses is too low, and it is easy for both mother and child to die.Now, it is unrealistic to reproduce offspring on a large scale, and the sanitation conditions are too poor. "
"But the cornerstone is not enough, the upper class is prone to turmoil, and the basic national strength has to be resolved."
"So the Zhou Dynasty adopted strict etiquette."
"Incorporate everything according to etiquette."
"Pay attention to everything, make the class obvious, let the nobles know that they are different, and satisfy the sense of psychological accomplishment."
"In this way, a lot of power is saved, and these powers are gradually dispersed, and some of them are absorbed, and a false prosperous age appears,"
"The advantage is that with the increase of the underlying foundation, the advantages of this system will become more obvious."
Confucius was an aristocrat in the Spring and Autumn Period, and he had access to these things.
Others in the group understood how this works.
If Zhou Wen Wang Jichang directly ordered that you are not allowed to eat this or that, and you cannot use this or that, then there will definitely be problems.
However, Ji Chang planned these into the etiquette and said that this is the unique treatment of nobles. Do you think it is noble?
Then I will show you what you can enjoy in each class, and compare them to see if you are happier.
Then divide it into when you can eat, how to eat, how much to eat in one meal, do you feel that you are more noble.
Pay more attention to things, so that others can experience the difference.
Restricted in this way, a lot of national power can be saved.
This is a very gentle, tactful, and weird operation.
King Zhou was dumbfounded when he saw it.
I didn't expect that etiquette still has this kind of operation method
God's dear son¡ª
"So, the etiquette laws mastered by the Zhou Dynasty are actually part of the criminal law."
"Legislative power?"
"It's kind of like that."
Guangwu frowned.
Why does he feel that the etiquette and laws of the Zhou Dynasty are a bit like the legislative power of later generations?
Fighters in the wine pool and meat forest¡ª
"The words governing the world through ritual and music."
"Then it's not a little bit."
King Zhou's expression was gloomy. His operations were rough, while those of the Zhou Dynasty were all meticulous. Everyone is of different types, and there is a big gap.
Judging from the effect, he is finished anyway. Although the Zhou Dynasty is not perfect, it is indeed alive
"The history of the Zhou Dynasty is not easy to check, but theoretically speaking, the etiquette and laws of the Zhou Dynasty do have the taste of legislative power."
"That should be the scope of the system. The right to make legislation has always been in the hands of the Zhou royal family."
"Combined with the Zhou royal family's own force, it is indeed very strong."
"It's just the same sentence, political power grows out of the barrel of a gun. After the collapse of the Zhou royal family's force, the legislative power was dispersed to the princes."
Su Xi lamented that Zhou Dynasty's operation is really quite good and very strong, but how to put it, the most fundamental thing is force
