Chapter 089: The Legalist Controversy (Part 1)(1/2)
As a person from later generations, I may not be as good as the ancients in terms of real-time strategies and critical decisions.
But if we talk about hindsight, the ancients and later generations who were deeply affected by the limitations of the times are not on the same level at all.
If Legalism were a game, then Han Fei would be the top ranked boss.
And Ying Chengyu is a warrior who has reached the upper limit of krypton gold. My level is not as high as yours, but my combat power is just...
"What is the technique of the Shu School? To put it simply, it is conspiracy and trickery. What is the law of Legalism? It is legal regulations. Shen Buha uses 'shu' as 'law', that is, he uses conspiracy and tricks to improve legal regulations. Finally, in
After the death of Han Zhaohou, the laws and regulations disappeared, which is what you said about the law of no harm without application."
"But the passing of wild geese leaves hair, and the passing of humans leaves traces. Shen Buhai practiced martial arts in Korea, and even after others died, the traces remain. Koreans still practice magical healing, and this is what I call Shen Buhai's technique. Enough said.
Understand? Any questions?"
Huh? What your Majesty said seems interesting.
The laughter of the diners gradually faded, and most of their eyes lit up as they understood what Ying Chenglong meant.
In the shadows, the old man with a somewhat fierce voice said: "Your Majesty's theory is quite charming. 'Shu' is the means of doing things, and 'law' is the ultimate goal. The laws can be deleted, but the methods of doing things are not so easy to delete."
Another person in the shadow said: "When Wu Anjun was at Yanmen, he ordered the Zhao border troops to return as soon as they heard the Huns' horseshoes, and kill anyone who dared to capture them. After so many years, only one battle made the Huns dare not go south for ten years. In
During this period, the tenacity of Zhao Bian's soldiers was cultivated extremely well."
"Even after the rumor spread that Lord Wu An was killed by King Zhao, the Zhao army was united and united, fought bravely, and there was no chaos. This is the 'skill'. Once Zhao generals were replaced, their command and decision-making was far worse than that of Lord Wu An.
What's more, this means that the Dharma does not exist. Your Majesty, is what I say correct?"
"That's the truth."
Ying Chengyu nodded and turned to look at Li Mu who was being praised.
Li Mu was obviously praised, but there was no joy at all on his face.
He threw away the empty wine jar in his hand, opened another jar of wine, and drank.
"I made a mistake."
Li Muping wiped the wine stains from the corner of his mouth with his palm, and waved his hand towards the apologetic doorman in the shadows.
Having said this, even the reckless man who had only been focusing on eating understood it, and Han Fei naturally understood it a long time ago.
The Legalist Everest frowned and wrote on the paper: Your Majesty is saying that the rule of Shenzi will lead to the destruction of Korea?
Ying Chengyu nodded.
Han Fei picked up his pen and started writing again. While writing, he took out another piece of paper from his arms and wrote two full sheets.
This shows how much Han Fei disagrees with Ying Chengyu’s words:
Seeing Han Fei's stubborn look, Ying Chengyu's original thought of competing with Han Fei suddenly disappeared.
The two pieces of paper on the table were not a debate for Han Fei, but his love for South Korea and his confusion about South Korea's demise.
If it were possible, Han Fei, the Korean prince who could hardly speak a word but was able to write a eloquent masterpiece of 100,000 words, "Han Feizi", really wished that the world's surname was Han, not Qin.
Ying Chengyu gently patted Han Fei on the shoulder, asking the stubborn Korean prince to relax, and said softly: "You once wrote in "Han Feizi Wang Wen": What the law does not belong to, the king takes it. The officials take it.
Those who were punished were those supported by the superiors. That is, those who were opposed by the law were appointed by the monarch. Those who were punished by the officials were supported by the monarch. You attribute this to the cause of Han's demise."
"Do you think that the complete reversal of reputation, reputation, rewards and punishments will lead to the destruction of laws and prohibitions and the chaos of the people, that is, the destruction of laws and prohibitions, and the chaos of the country's people. Then have you ever thought about why South Korea, with its "righteousness" on the head, has changed?
Is it like what you said?"
Naturally, Han Fei had thought about this problem. He took out another piece of paper from his arms and quickly wrote on the paper: The aristocracy is powerful. Han Zhao waited first, and all the Han kings in the past generations have no courage and are far behind Qin.
Only one generation of Han Zhaohou was able to implement the Shen Bu Hui reform, and all subsequent generations of Han lords did not follow the Shen Bu Hui reform.
In the Qin State, Shang Yang's method continued from Qin Xiaogong to the first emperor.
"So, why is this happening? Is it true that our country of Qin is so lucky and has received help from God?"
Ying Chengyu took the brush from Han Fei's hand and wrote a big word "shu" on the paper.
"The Shen Bu Hui Reform is to use 'skill' to control 'skill', requiring the king to use conspiracies to control his ministers. A king must be true to his words, carry out majestic schemes, and must not resort to deceitful ways."
"When a king is accustomed to using the intrigues that his ministers are good at to fight against the plots of his ministers, what is the difference between this king and his ministers? How does this king manage his ministers? Korean princes in the past dynasties grew up in such an environment, and were attracted by Han Jun since childhood.
How can they still have the courage if they are exposed to many tricks and tricks?"
"Since the Shenbulai Reform, Korea's 'skills' have risen and 'righteousness' has fallen. The king and his subjects only think about conspiracy and conspiracy, and there is no longer the spirit of a strong country with the word "righteousness". Korea, with its simple folk customs, has completely degenerated into the most ridiculous and ridiculous
A state ruled by magic."
"The whole body and mind of the kings and ministers of Korean temples are always in the calculation of avoiding disaster and seeking others. This is the danger of the rule of law."
Han Fei is a very smart man. If he were not smart, he would not become the first Legalist in history.
Because of this, he understood after Ying Chengyu finished speaking.
Even if what Ying Chengyu said completely defeated his rule of thumb in "Han Feizi", it was a huge impact on his Legalist theory.
He stared blankly at Ying Chengyu, beads of sweat starting to drip from his face.
His face turned a little pale, and his right hand trembled as he took back the brush from Ying Chengyu's hand, wanting to write something on the paper.
The trembling brush left ink dots and scratches on the paper, and soon the paper was covered with everything, just like Han Fei's heart.
Shen Buhai, whom he had always respected as Shenzi, was the chief culprit who destroyed his motherland.
He believed that the Shinbule reform was an opportunity for South Korea to dominate the world, but the truth was that it was a step towards the abyss for South Korea.
The first Legalist, Han Fei, who stuttered but was not good at speaking but good at writing, really wanted to write something to refute Ying Chengyun at this moment, and wanted to prove that what Ying Chengyun said was wrong and wrong.
But there were more and more dots and lines, and he couldn't write a word.
He was so stubborn that he refused to put down his pen, just like that year when he was so stubborn in the court of Qin that he refused to make suggestions for Qin.
Ying Chengyu sighed lightly, stood up and said: "We might as well think back to what South Korea, which sits on the world's largest iron mountain, has done in these years. In a world of great competition, the strong will become stronger, and the weak will perish. If you want to seize the world,
It is okay to seek others, but it must come after strengthening yourself.”
"And South Korea is very interesting. It is obsessed with military rule. It does not think about strengthening itself, but only thinks about recruiting people. Qin occupied Han, and Han ceded the Shangdang to Zhao, and named it Zhao Zhao to shift trouble. He also cut eight cities to join the Zhou Dynasty, and also named Fat Zhou.
Retreat from Qin. Send watermen Zheng Guo to Qin to develop water conservancy, clearly strengthen Qin, and call it Weary Qin."
"Since ancient times, has there ever been such a ridiculous plan? To harm one's own body in order to plot others, and not to think about strengthening oneself. The trend of martial arts in Korea is prevalent, and the eccentricities are particularly strong. Korea is like this, even if God cannot save it. If Korea does not perish, the world will not be destroyed.
Where is the right path? Techniques should not exist in the Dharma."
"Shenzi" says: Shen Buha taught Zhaohou how to control his subordinates.
"Historical Records of the Han Family" says: Shen does not harm the prime minister, Han, cultivates martial arts and practices the Tao, governs the country, and the princes do not invade.
Korea thrived on martial arts and died on martial arts.
Everyone in Korea will inevitably feel the word "shu". Even Han Fei, the Legalist master who was regarded as an idol by Ying Zheng, was not immune. When compiling "Han Feizi", he openly used "shu" to treat "shu".
Write.
Han Shu, who was the master of this evil trend, was undoubtedly one of the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty. He was known as Zhang Liang, who was the master of strategizing and decisive victory thousands of miles away. He was granted the title of Liuhou by Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty.
It has experienced the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, the chaos of the late Qin Dynasty, and the Chu-Han struggle for hegemony for several generations.
The Qin Dynasty was destroyed by the way of art, and the Han Dynasty was prospered by the way of art, so that the art of art reached its peak.
However, even with Zhang Liang's ability, he was unable to regain Korea. In the end, he realized that the art of martial arts was a small way and could not be used to govern the country, let alone restore the country, so he could only retreat secretly.
Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, also understood this - the way to seek people is not to seek the country. Zhang Liang bid farewell, and Liu Bang easily let Zhang Liang leave.
On the opposite side is Xiao He, the leader of the three heroes in the early Han Dynasty. He resigned several times but Liu Bang refused to let him go, forcing Xiao He to commit suicide to protect himself. The reason is that Xiao He is good at strengthening himself, which is the way to govern the country.
Liu Bang was afraid that he would let Xiao He go in front, and if there were princes and queens in the rear, he would ask Xiao He to take charge of the internal affairs.
Three or five years later, the princes and kings had enough troops to fight for the world with him, the Han Emperor.
Therefore, Liu Bang would rather kill Xiao He than let Xiao He go.
But these can only be seen by future generations with the eyes of God. People in this world cannot see them due to the limitations of the times.
The Qin Dynasty was the first unified dynasty in history. No one knew how such a large dynasty should be governed or run. Everyone was crossing the river by feeling the stones.
Even Ying Chengxuan, a modern man with a God's perspective, cannot govern this new dynasty perfectly - what later generations have learned cannot be copied mechanically, and a system suitable for modern times may not be suitable for ancient times.
Although Ying Chengyu was not sure what was feasible, he at least knew what was not feasible.
When he said these last words, he did not want to hurt this poor young man whose homeland had perished.
He just wants the stuttering in the Chang'an Lord's Mansion to know what the Legalists who govern the world should be like - this is the most powerful stuttering in the world, the only thing he is still pursuing.
Han Fei is still young and has great talent.
Ying Chengyu knew that the Chang'an Palace could not imprison the stuttering Han Fei, just like it could not imprison the swordsman Gai Nie.
This era is filled with the afterglow of the contention of a hundred schools of thought.
One day, when this stammerer returns to the court, representing Legalism and competing with other schools of thought, he will lead the huge empire of Qin to move forward.
Ying Chengyu did not expect that the path chosen by Stuttering would be the most correct one, but at least it would be closer to the most correct one.
Pat~
The holder of the brush broke into two pieces and made a crisp sound when it fell on the table. It also shattered Han Fei's ideal of the trinity of Legalism, which included law, technique, and power.
