Abstract

The Confucian filial piety culture is a very practical culture. How the ancient Chinese government propagates the filial piety culture is an important issue in the study of its inheritance. This paper chooses ancient Yiwu County as a case study to investigate the local government's practice of using traditional filial piety stories, such as filial piety stories or filial piety records, and the effect of practice. In ancient times, Yiwu County used Yan Wu Xiaode's story to carry out local missionary education in two ways: one is to influence local scholars through standardized and grand sacrificial ceremonies, and then pass it on to the people in the county; First, from the central court to the local officials, the main role is to worship Yan Xiaozi, the model of filial piety, which affects the value orientation of the people. In Yiwu, where Confucianism is developed, the filial piety culture of local governments has received good feedback, and the filial piety culture has also penetrated into the blood of scholars. In the context of the Chinese subject culture of “loyalty and filial piety”, it also provided the “loyalty and justice” dividend for the ancient Chinese feudal government, and a large number of “loyal and patriotic” scholar-officials emerged.
