The ultimate purpose is to assist ruling state and dealing with politics with its thoughts. The hierarchical social structure provides it with social soil. The reason why Confucianism gains the exclusive status and is created for orthodoxy that undergoes contention of a hundred schools of thought is that it conforms to the ruler’s political needs, satisfies the people’s value pursuit and relates to the containment of itself. The rich ideological content, involving personal accomplishment, family harmony, state governance and the supreme harmony worldwide, is the inheritance and development which impairs public values.
