Why was Song Qi, the minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, reprimanded by the peasants for ignoranc

Because Song Qi asked the peasants an extremely stupid question, it may be natural for Song Qi, but it is extremely ridiculous for the peasants, so the peasants will reprimand him for ignorance to his face。This happened in the Jiayou period of the Northern Song Dynasty, when it was popular to go to the countryside to visit and investigate the people's conditions, and Song Qi was selected to become a representative, so he led a part of the people to walk on the ridges of the countryside, and the crops grew very well, Song Qi couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart, he felt that it was all due to the emperor's rule or the favor of God, so he ran to ask a farmer uncle who was working.

Song Qi walked over with a smile and said to the farmer uncle, look at your crops are very good, you said that you should thank God or the emperor。Song Qi gave these two options, let the farmer uncle choose one of the two, the farmer uncle seemed to feel a little ridiculous when he heard it, he couldn't believe that this was the ** words, so he said to Song Qi, the crops are planted by me day and night, with my back to the sky and facing the loess, a hoe and a hoe, what is the matter between the emperor and God, the crops grow well all thanks to my hard work. After the peasant uncle finished speaking, he walked away, leaving Song Qi and the others to look at each other.

Song Qi made an analysis of what the peasant uncle said, he felt that what the peasant uncle said was still very reasonable, and he did not arrest the peasant uncle for punishment, which showed that he was not pedantic to the point of being incurable. In fact, Song Qi's thoughts are not just his personal thoughts, most of the ** and even the emperor are like Song Qi, and the idea of being divinely endowed by the monarch has been eroded to the point that there is not much left。It is not surprising that they have this kind of thought, because they are in that extremely feudal environment all the year round, and the emperor and the heavens are the most noble images for them, so they often ignore their personal sense of existence.

The story of Song Qi and the peasant uncle can be said to be a typical collision between the supremacy of monarchy and the personal interests of the common people, and it can also be seen that the working people at that time already had such an advanced consciousness of labor ownership in themselves.

Because at that time, Song Qi asked the peasants a question, how good the Zhuang family planted was the credit of the emperor or God, who knew that the peasants were very angry, saying that they planted it themselves, not their credit.

No, the peasants and the **, the contrast is strong, one is low, the other is noble. In front of the peasants, it seems that they should be on their knees, and only the majesty of prostrate at the feet of the peasants. Straighten your waist and speak, the peasants can't and don't dare.

Because this only focused on the cultural and military development of the time, and did not pay attention to the economic development, it was reprimanded.

The farmer in "Waiting for the Rabbit" was ridiculed by the Song Dynasty for the following reasons:

Because he was lucky enough to get a rabbit that hit a tree stump and died, he thought that another rabbit would hit the stump and die, so he put down the furniture in his hand and stopped plowing the field, but the result must have been that the rabbit did not get it, and the field was abandoned again. His idea of pinning his hopes on luck and wanting to get something for nothing is stupid and ridiculous.

This text also tells us that we should not be brainless in doing things, we should look at things from a changing point of view, we should not stick to dogma and not know how to be flexible, and we should use our spiritual limbs to answer questions and solve problems with flexible thinking. Hard work can make you rich, and hard work can lead to success.

Waiting for the Rabbit idiom story:

Once upon a time, there was a Song man who had a fertile field. He worked diligently on the field, and the harvest was impressive. There was a tree stump in the field, and when he was tired from work, he rested next to the stump for a while.

One day, while he was working in the field, a rabbit came out of nowhere and ran in a hurry, only to crash and die on a tree stump. He ran over to take a look, and was overjoyed: he was so lucky today, he had a rabbit for nothing.

As he walked home with the rabbit in his hand, he thought triumphantly: If I waited here every day to harvest a rabbit, I would not have to be so tired from now on.

So, from the next day, he put down his hoe and stood by the stump at the edge of the field every day, waiting for the rabbit to come and crash and die on the stump. Time passed day by day, and the fields were overgrown with weeds and barren. The Song people were still waiting by the stump, but no rabbit was ever killed again.

There was a peasant in the Song Kingdom who worked in the fields every day.

One day, the farmer was working in the field when a hare came out of the grass. The hare was frightened at the sight of someone. It ran desperately and ran into a tree root at the head of the farmer's field, breaking its neck and dying.

The farmer put down his work and went over to pick up the dead rabbit, rejoicing in his good fortune.

When he returned home in the evening, the farmer handed over the dead rabbit to his wife. The wife made fragrant hare meat, and the two of them talked and laughed and ate a beautiful meal.

The next day, the farmer went to work in the fields as usual, but he was no longer as attentive as he had been. He did it for a while, then he glanced and listened to the bushes, hoping that another rabbit would come out and crash into the stump. In this way, he worked absentmindedly for a day and then changed, and he did not finish hoeing the ground that should be hoeed.

He didn't see any rabbits come out until dark, and he went home very reluctantly.

On the third day, the farmer came to the edge of the field, and he had no intention of hoeing the ground. He put his farming tools aside and sat on the ridge next to the stump, waiting for the hares to come out. But I waited in vain for another day.

Later, the farmer stayed by the stump every day, hoping to pick up another rabbit, but he never got it again. But the seedlings in the fields withered because of him. As a result, the farmer became the laughing stock of the Song people. May I?

The Song people would laugh at the farmers for the following reasons:

His idea of pinning his hopes on luck and wanting to get something for nothing is stupid and ridiculous. At the same time, he treats what happens by chance as a successful experience, and his inflexible behavior is ridiculous. This fable tells us to do things by our own efforts, not by luck.

History of the Song Kingdom:

The Song State, the vassal state of the Zhou Dynasty, the surname of the monarch of the country, is located in the area of Shangqiu, Henan Province and Huaibei, Anhui Province. At the beginning of Zhou, he was made a duke by Zhou Tianzi. A total of thirty-four monarchs have been passed down for 829 years.

At the beginning of the Western Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Gongdan assisted King Cheng of Zhou to quell the rebellion of the three eunuchs, followed the tradition of sailing and grinding the succession of rise and extinction, and in 1114 BC he was named the elder brother of the king of Shang Weizi Qi in Shangqiu, the old capital of the Shang Dynasty, and established the Song Kingdom.

The Song State has a special status and is respected by Zhou Tianzi as one of the three emperors. The Song Kingdom is the source of Chinese sage culture, the birthplace of the four major ideas of Confucianism, Mohistism, Taoism and Famous Masters at the core of Chinese traditional culture, and is known as the state of etiquette. In addition, the ancestral home of Confucius is also in the Song Kingdom.

There is an allusion to this.

When Song Renzong, there was a ** named Song Qi who went to Kaifeng City to enjoy the scenery, and when he saw the old farmer plowing the field, he stepped forward and quipped: "The old man has worked hard." Looks like you've had a great harvest this year.

Do you think you should thank God for your favor, or thank the emperor for his blessings? The old farmer "leaned down and laughed", and then criticized Song Qi fiercely: "What a contempt!"

I don't know what to do! I work hard every day, and today's harvest is all my sweat, why thank God? I pay taxes on time, and the officials can't force me to do it, so why should I thank the emperor?

I am high in the spring and autumn, and I have read a lot of things in the world, and I have never seen someone as stupid as you. Song Qi was scolded by the old farmer, and he didn't dare to get angry.

**Zhuang Sui also recorded an incident in "Chicken Rib Weaving": he passed through Ganzhou and asked the officials to buy some daily necessities from nearby shops, but the stores refused to sell anything to them, because the money brought by the officials was minted by the Huizong Dynasty. When the people of Ganzhou saw that the Huizong Dynasty made money, they said unceremoniously

We don't accept this kind of money-making system. "This is not a single person's will, but the folk customs of the entire Ganzhou and even Jiangxi. In Zhuang Xuan's words, it is "the atmosphere of the mountains and rivers".

Zhou Mi, a native of the Southern Song Dynasty, recorded one thing in his notes: there was a Zhizhou in Yanzhou, called Fang Hui, who was greedy and despicable, and liked to write a preface to someone's poetry collection, and then collect some polishing pen. "There are villains in the market who ask for a preface to the poem, and they will be paid five dollars, and they will want to get money into their arms, and then they will talk a lot.

The people in the market saw that his words were hasty and unhappy, so they returned it in order, asked for money, and even waved their fists, which was greedy. "I think Fang Hui is a very interesting person, he doesn't have the slightest knowledge of the state, as long as he gives some money, you can ask him to write a preface. What's even more interesting is that the "villain in the market" was not satisfied with the order of the other adult, so he dared to throw it back, asking Lord Fang to return the money, and beat him if he didn't return the money.

This Lord Fang, who later lived in a Hangzhou hostel, accidentally shook the neighbor's wall soil down. The neighbor was not polite, and immediately took Lord Fang to court. At that time, the citizens of Lin'an, no matter how far or near, no matter how strong or weak, were wronged by the **, they "manipulated the paper of the ruler, and the book was usually angry".

The Song Kingdom was a state that existed during the Spring and Autumn Period of China. In this question, it is mentioned that the Song people ridiculed the farmers, first of all, we must make it clear that the farmers here refer to the farmers of which period and which region. Because the social status of farmers was different in different times and regions, this directly affected the reasons and motivations for the Song people to ridicule farmers.

Historically, the Song Kingdom was a great power that emerged during the Spring and Autumn Period, with its own unique culture and traditions. The Song people regarded the peasants as the lower strata of society, believing them to be lowly, vulgar, and uneducated. The Song people always attached great importance to cultural education, believing that only scholars could deeply understand various classics, while farmers often did not go through systematic education and upbringing, and it was difficult for them to appreciate the true meaning of Confucianism.

Therefore, the reason why the Song people ridiculed the peasants was that they believed that the peasants were people at the bottom of the society, with low cultural attainment, vulgar and unbearable, and it was difficult to understand and comprehend Confucianism, and they might even misunderstand and reverse the judgments of the Confucian classics. From this point of view, the ridicule of the peasants by the Song people was more of a form of discrimination and contempt, a denial of the status and cultural dimension of the peasants, and reflected the hierarchical division and cultural concepts of the society at that time.

At the same time, we also need to realize that the reason why the Song people ridiculed the farmers was not entirely out of discrimination and contempt for the farmers. From another point of view, their behavior is also motivated by the high importance of Confucianism and the pursuit of the overall cultural quality of society. The Song State attached great importance to the inheritance and development of Confucianism, believing that only by adhering to Confucianism could social progress and development be promoted.

Therefore, they believe that only through the popularization and popularization of culture and education can the cultural and spiritual quality of the whole society be improved and the role and value of the individual can be brought into better play.

To sum up, the reasons why the Song people ridiculed the peasants were not only discrimination and contempt, but also the high importance of Confucianism and the pursuit of cultural quality. Although the concept of education for all has been formed in today's society, we still need to continuously improve the cultural quality of the society and promote the prosperity and development of culture. <>
