However is actually hiding many contradictions in a piece of prosperous behind: Farmer with landlord class's contradiction in aggravating; Place powerful bullies strength with absolute monarchy between centralized state contradiction in development; Has implemented the policy of peace-making marriages since by the Chinese at the beginning to maintain with Hsiungnu's fool's paradise aspect, also cannot need. Under this kind of situation, already had the formidable strength centralized state, the request further strengthened crowned head's centralization to be despotic. Dong Zhongshu complied with the time need, has displayed the thought which since greatly the Western Zhou Dynasty the monarchial power god has given, Since he has inherited the Western Zhou Dynasty about "the sun" , "the destiny" since the idealism world outlook, has absorbed the Spring and Autumn Period Warring States the masculine and feminine elements five expert's mysticism thought that has completed the mystical teleology system which his beauty induces discusses.The third part elaborates the historical process which the beauty induces discusses is produces.
