Chapter 91: Shang Junshu
"I just did what I was supposed to do, as long as Madame wasn't hurt. Qin Liangyu said very modestly.
"Miss Qin came just in time, but Mr. Wang watched the excitement for a long time but refused to help......" Saying this, Lu Qiongxian couldn't help but glance at Wang Meng with a resentment.
Wang Meng was stared at by Lu Qiongxian for a while, and hurriedly confessed, and left in a hurry with Xu Rong Liyi, the lady's eyes obviously had an opinion on her "inaction" just now.
"Okay, Mr. Wang is also a celebrity next to Gongzi, so don't scare him. Qin Liangyu said.
"Hee-hee, I don't think I'll be so proud that he can't find the north. Lu Qiongxian spit out her tongue very cutely, and said softly.
"In that case, then Mrs. should not take care of this money house today, and I will send Mrs. home. ”
"Okay, okay, I'm worried that there is no one to talk to me on the way home. Lu Qiongxian smiled.
The journey from Wuchuan Town to Shixue Town is about a quarter of an hour farther than before, but the prices in Wuchuan Town are much lower than in Shixue Town, so what is it to walk a few more steps in order to be able to buy low-priced goods?
However, Lu Qiongxian is not worried about this, most of the people in the money village who help her take care of her business are female soldiers trained by Qin Liangyu, even if the two of them are gossiping now, there are female soldiers almost every inch to guard them.
I have to say that the female guards are indeed relatively novel, and Lu Qiongxian couldn't help but sigh.
In this way, the two of them walked all the way back to the Ling Mansion, Qin Liangyu still had the task of patrolling the town, and he couldn't get out, so he had to confess, Lu Qiongxian also expressed his understanding, and after saluting her, he went straight to the house.
"Mrs. Shan, is there?" Lu Qiongxian asked the little maid who was guarding the door as soon as she entered the door.
"Madame was reading a book in the hall. The little guy replied.
"Take me to see Madame, just say that Qianzhuang's business is yellow today. Lu Qiongxian said and stuffed a few coins into his pocket.
"Yes, ma'am, please come with me. ”
After a while, Lu Qiongxian saw Shan Ying with a sad face reading and studying, so she sent the little maid away, gently came behind Shan Ying, and gently massaged her.
"I came back so early, it seems that Qianzhuang's business is not very good today. Shan Ying said. Institutions
"It's not very good, my good sister, those rich people are making things difficult in every way, if it weren't for the town army coming to the home field, I'm afraid I'll have to deal with those old guys now. Lu Qiongxian frowned very sadly.
"If you want more interest, you have to force us to pay more interest rates, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world. Lu Qiongxian's tone turned cold.
"Since this is the case, then it is better to remove the money village and set up a restaurant instead, or you are in charge of the overall situation, I believe you can do well. ”
"What my sister said, that is, my husband has high hopes for this, otherwise my sister would not be the proprietress of this money bank, but ...... Alas, it's not a good deal. ”
"My husband wants me to read this Shangjun book, I really can't read it, why don't you come and read it for me, sister?" Shan Ying said and handed the scroll in his hand to Lu Qiongxian.
The Book of Shang Jun, also known as Shang Zi, has 26 extant chapters, which is one of the representative works of the Legalist school during the Warring States Period, and is a compilation of the works of Shang Ying, a well-known figure in China, and his successors.
The Book of Shang Jun focuses on the theory and specific measures of the reform of the law implemented by the Shang Dynasty in the Qin State at that time.
The Book of Shang Jun discusses a large number of policies to fool the people and the view that Legalists and scholars stabilized power for the emperor and deprived the people of their human rights. For example, in the Book of Shang Jun, the relationship between the state and the people is contradictory. When the people are strong, the country is weak. So if you want the country to be strong, you have to weaken the people. A country that can defeat a powerful enemy and dominate the world must subdue its own people.
Only by making the people ignorant, simple and loyal, it is not easy for the people to form a powerful force against the state and the monarch, so that the country will be easy to govern and the monarch's position will be firm. In the Book of Shang Jun, it is believed that human nature is inherently evil, and the evil nature of human beings must be recognized, and the country can only be made strong by governing the country by governing the country with evil and good.
He believed that increasing the punishment and reducing the reward meant that the monarch loved the people and the people would desperately compete for the reward; increasing the reward and reducing the punishment meant that the monarch did not care for the people, and the people would not fight desperately for the reward.
The Book of Shang Jun is diverse in style. There are more than a dozen articles such as "Agricultural War", "Kaisai", "Planning", etc., which are either synthesized first and then analyzed, or analyzed first and then synthesized, and used inductive deduction at the same time, echoing from beginning to end. Sometimes rhetorical devices such as metaphors, comparisons, contrasts, and substitutions are also used. The chapter of "Laimin" uses the fable of "Qi people have Dongguo Chang" to enhance the effect and imagery of reasoning, and shows that there are "Reclamation Order", "Jin Order", "Territory" and other chapters, which are the interpretation of Qin's government decree. The debate is based on the "Change of Law", which expounds the central argument through the dialogue between the characters, and Sima Qian recorded it in the "Historical Records: The Biography of Shang Jun" (the text has been changed) to show Shang Ying's claim.
The first chapter of "Changing the Law" describes in detail the issue of Shang Ying, Gan Long, and Du Zhi arguing about changing the law in front of Qin Xiaogong. The fourth chapter of the "Removal of Songs" discusses the disadvantages caused by the elimination of the people's disobedience to government decrees, and the need to use criminal punishment to concentrate on agricultural warfare and less business as a solution. "Those who govern the traitors with the good people will be chaotic and cut, and those who govern the good people with the traitors will be governed to the end" "Shang Junshu Quyi". If the state governs the wicked people with leniency towards the good, the country will inevitably fall into turmoil and decline. And if the state governs the good people with prudence in dealing with the wicked, the state can be stable and strong. Chapter 7 of "Kaisai" proposes three stages of social development: "In the previous life, relatives and selfishness are loved, in the middle world the virtuous and benevolent, and in the next life noble and honorable officials." This view of historical change is of great progressive significance in the history of philosophy. In terms of specific measures, the book advocated the strengthening of the monarchy, the establishment of a strict system of rule of law with strict rewards and punishments, the abolition of the hereditary privileges of the nobility, the reward of military merits, and the promotion of farming and warfare, while opposing the use of poetry, writing, etiquette, and moral education to govern the country. The 20th chapter of "The Weak" aims to explain the relative relationship between the 'weak' and the 'strong'. "The people are weak and the country is weak, and the people are weak, so there is a country of the way, and the weak people are in the weak people" "Shang Junshu - Weak People". If the people are strong, the monarch's dominance will be unstable, so if the monarch's dominance is to be stable, it must first "weaken the people".
"How could my husband suddenly let my sister read such a book? My husband knew that my sister didn't like to read these esoteric books. Lu Qiongxian looked at it for a while, although she had a certain political talent, but the "Book of Shang Jun" was obviously not something she was interested in, this book was full of murderous atmosphere, and it was not suitable for her to read.
"Alas, the husband wants me to use the law of Shangjun to rule the people of Wuchuan Town, in case there are villains in Wuchuan Town who plot against each other and sow discord. Shan Ying rubbed her somewhat sour eyes and said.
Ling Hao hasn't been home a few times since she was studying, which makes Shan Ying very helpless, her husband, who usually gets along with her day and night, is not around, she suddenly seems to have lost her backbone, and she is confused.
Fortunately, there are also Lu Qiongxian, Qin Liangyu, and Yan Nantian who help her manage the Ling Mansion, otherwise she really can't manage it as a woman.
In addition, she was also quite dissatisfied with Ling Hao's hands-off behavior, feeling that her husband was too irresponsible, too unreliable, and too unhuman...... Well, I actually just missed him, remembering the scene when Ling Hao loved her before, but now he was no longer by his side.
