Chapter 922(2/2)
"I dare to say that the current monarch uses the post of Taiwei to take charge of the country's affairs. It is really inconsistent with the name and reality, and it is neither fish nor fowl!"
"oh?"
Heifu thought that these guys were coming in a hurry to persuade him to come in again. He took his eyes away from the thick documents, looked at Lu Jia, and said with a smile: "Fengchang has just taken office and is in charge of court etiquette. The first thing to do is to regulate the etiquette of the court."
I am the righteous person?"
However, Lu Jia did not give in at all, and said solemnly: "The name of the king should be definite and real, the road should be clear and the will is clear, and the people should be led cautiously. If the position of the king is not upright and unstable, everything in the world will be difficult to correct.
I have to say."
Seeing that Lu Jia was so serious and refused to give in, which was very different from his previous smooth and moderate attitude, as if he had become a different person after becoming Feng Chang, Heifu could only sit upright and said, "Tell me about it."
Lu Jia was fully prepared for this visit and spoke eloquently: "I have been regent for several weeks. The first regency was during the reign of King Cheng of Zhou. At that time, Duke Zhou was the Taifu, Taigong Wang was the Taishi, and Duke Zhao was the Taibao.
The Duke of Zhou assumed the position of Grand Tutor as regent and fulfilled the throne of Emperor."
"The second regency was after King Li of Zhou fled. Zhou Dinggong was the Taifu, Zhao Mu was the Taibao, and Gongbohe was the Taishi. Gongbo and Yi Taishi served as regents and fulfilled the throne of the emperor."
"If a prince wants to be honorable and honorable, he must fulfill his position and be worshiped by hundreds of officials. Only in this way can the regent be able to exercise the power of the emperor!"
Seeing that Hei Fu was silent, perhaps because he was thinking that the time was not mature enough and would cause turmoil, Lu Jia changed the subject:
"Even if the prince does not take up his position for the time being, he should add a superior prince to the three princes. He will be titled as Duke of the country and his position will be named Taifu, Taishi or Taibao. Only in this way can the prince's position be superior to that of hundreds of princes.
Above the officials, the etiquette of superiority and inferiority is correct!"
"Taifu, Taishi, Taibao..." Heifu touched his chin: "Which one do you think is the most suitable?"
"I think it is appropriate to be a Grand Master!"
What Lu Jia recommended was the title of "Tai Shi" to show that Wu Zhonghou was regent and the emperor was absent. He imitated the administration of Gongbo and Yi Taishi, and had ancient systems to follow. Another meaning is that he is like a teacher.
Fatherly, he is both the supreme commander and the person in charge.
At this time, Shusun Tong, who came with Lu Jia as Taizhu and was responsible for regulating etiquette, spoke:
"Feng Chang's words are very wonderful. There are too many princes in the country, and it is difficult to show the honorable ones. It is time to follow the example of Zhou Zheng and add a title of Duke above the princes to show the status of the king."
Since Heifu was determined to be regent and would not immediately replace the Qin Dynasty, as ceremony officials, they had no choice but to desperately find a basis for this special system and make up for the shortcomings.
Shu Suntong agreed to add a "dong" title to the twenty ranks to highlight the regent's status.
But he objects to titles such as division and protection.
He spoke plausibly: "Teacher, model, is also called a person who teaches people the Tao. Teacher-protector is also the assistant to the emperor and the children of the royal family. Only when a king takes the throne in the country can there be a teacher and protector. I have always proposed this.
I’m afraid it’s inappropriate.”
Lu Jia smiled. In terms of etiquette, he was not necessarily more skillful than Shusun Tong, who had studied Confucianism for generations and was a direct disciple of Confucius.
But what makes Lu Jia smart is that, firstly, he has a greater ideal, and secondly, he understands Heifu better and understands what Heifu has not said explicitly, but has always tried to do things for others...
This is also the reason why he, Lu Jia, can be ranked among the Nine Qings!
Lu Jia paid homage to Mr. Hei and said loudly: "The gains and losses of Yin due to Xia's rituals can be known; the gains and losses of Zhou's due to Yin's rituals can be known. The etiquette and customs of the three generations are different, and there are many deviations in names and positions, and there are also innovations. In this case...
…”
"Grand Master, why do you have to be the king's master?"
"Why can't you be the master of all people in the world!?"
