It can be said that the Confucian school theory that we can come into contact with now is the product of castration by rulers of past dynasties and the product of feudal rulers in order to safeguard their own rule. Feudal rulers constantly revised Confucianism to cater to their rule, ousted hundreds of schools and respected Confucianism alone, which meant that feudal rulers began to pay attention to the spiritual world of people in ancient society.
Although Confucianism is just an ordinary reform now, it has unparalleled significance at that time. In the Han dynasty or the dynasties after the Han dynasty, if you want to be an official, it depends on which school you belong to and which theory you have studied, which is your basis. Therefore, the influence of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty on the world was so great that the history of more than 2,000 years after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was affected by this decision.
This is actually because the Han Dynasty is the oldest dynasty in the history of China, so the system adopted by the Han Dynasty has a very far-reaching impact on the later feudal society. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ousted a hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism alone, which changed the history of our country. The reason why our country has such splendid Chinese culture is because the schools in our history have always been inherited by orthodoxy. Unlike the western world, heredity is intermittent. Therefore, this can also be said to be the influence of the policy of ousting a hundred schools of thought and focusing exclusively on Confucianism on the ancient culture of China. The ousting of a hundred schools of thought and the exclusive respect for Confucianism have mainly affected the cultural development of our country and brought our culture into a brand-new period, which is the key symbol that distinguishes us from the western world.
