Observing the Han Dynasty's"Governing the World with Filial Piety"from the Perspective of"Parents Are Alive,Not Traveling Far"
Confucius said:"if parents are alive,children should not travel far unless there is a definite place to go".In the Han Dy-nasty,which valued Confucianism and filial piety,this statement did not become a constraint on the concept of traveling far a-way,because long-distance travel is often a political mission.After the Han Dynasty's transformation,"filial piety"became the starting point of"loyalty",and"loyalty"became the endpoint of filial piety,achieving the unity of loyalty and filial piety,thus elevating family ethics into a governance strategy."Governing the world with filial piety"in the Han Dynasty achieved results,but it also had its own drawbacks.
