The era of Confucius is a historical turning point in the gradual decline of slave society and the gradual rise of new feudal system. He is a transitional figure in this transitional period. Confucius' thought basically represented the enlightened slave owner thought at that time, and to some extent reflected the trend and requirements of social progress.

Confucius was born in a noble family of declining slave owners, and he was "few and cheap". He has lived in the lower class for a long time and understands the wishes and demands of the people. At the same time, he has the opportunity to communicate with the authorities, and he can be an official. This is the reason why Confucius was loyal to the monarch and loved the people.

Lu, where Confucius was born, was the cultural center at that time, and the rules and regulations of the Zhou Dynasty were most completely preserved in Lu. Confucius was influenced by the culture of the Western Zhou Dynasty since he was a child, so he was very familiar with and admired Zhou rites. "Me and Zhou" is a living language from his heart.

This is also the reason why Confucius appreciated the thought of "valuing the people" and "benefiting the people". Confucius opened a private school at the right time, summed up and developed the traditional ancient culture of our country at that time, and included poems, books, rituals, music and other classics in teaching materials, which had a great influence on China's cultural education. These constitute an important part of Confucius' educational thought.

"To this end, Confucius attached great importance to education. He regarded education, population and wealth as the three elements of building a country.
