Early summer 209 BC.

On the morning of this day, the atmosphere in the majestic Qin Palace was very unusual, in the warm light of the morning sun, countless tiger soldiers lined up in full costumes, from outside the palace gate to the wide south study, how can that a solemn and luxurious momentum be 'amazing'!

Suddenly, the royal bell orchestra set up in front of the palace gate began to play a luxurious and elegant welcome music, melodious, crisp and very festive music notes in the palace in a moment of jubilation, all the tigers and soldiers couldn't help but straighten their waists and show the most powerful side!

As the music progressed, a strange procession entered the palace from the open palace gate, and looked closely: there were heroic young people, elegant and calm middle-aged people, and white-haired old people, and they all wore civilian clothes, and the costumes were from all over the world, revealing the meaning of mavericks.

These people are not ministers or soldiers, what kind of people are they? It is the outstanding of the six academic schools of Confucianism, Mo, Taoism, Law, Bing, and Zongheng who were invited by Fusu in addition to the soldiers!

Some of these people looked solemn and thoughtful, some were full of ambition and eager to try, and some were frowning and uneasy, but all of them were full of anticipation for today's meeting with Emperor Fusu of Qin. Because all the scholars understand that this time the competition between the schools of thought will determine what kind of doctrine the country will adopt to govern the country in the future, and in order to glorify the schools of contention, the scholars of all schools are secretly working hard!

In their anxious and impatient moods, the team finally came to the front of the south study, and Fu shook up his spirit and shouted: "Your Majesty has passed on the scholars of various schools to Jin - see ——!"

The scholars, young and old, hurriedly put away the look of anticipation just now, lowered their waists, and followed the leading eunuch into the south study. "Your Majesty!" The scholars hurriedly fell to the ground.

Originally, most of these scholars had no official positions and were not qualified to be called 'ministers' in front of Fusu, but Fusu was to win people's hearts, so these scholars were given the self-proclaimed 'ministers', and this kind of kindness made these scholars feel that the emperor loved talents!

Fu Su, who was sitting behind the throne, smiled, and said, "Zhuqing, please get up." Please take your seats!" The scholars immediately got up and hurriedly came to the futon on the side to sit down, and the three heroes elected by the soldiers: Han Xin, Meng Tian, and Li Xin were already here!

Fusu straightened his face and said earnestly: "Although Zhu Qing is from Tiannan and Haibei, they are all elites of various sects and doctrines, and this long journey to Xianyang is very hard, and I am here to show the most sincere welcome on behalf of the court!" Your Majesty cares!" Before these people entered the palace, they were repeatedly taught the etiquette in the palace by the Fu arrangement, so as not to be ugly and obedient in front of the holy car, so now the surface of the ground is still decent!

Fusu was very satisfied when he saw this, and clapped his hands. There is a palace maid who presented a cup of Qingqi to all the scholars, and then said with a smile: "The intention of inviting the princes to come here, presumably the secretaries have already understood in their hearts, so please ask the secretaries to see it, and while listening to the scholars, they will consider what kind of doctrine should be used to govern the country in the future!"

When the scholars heard this, their spirits perked up, and their eyes intertwined in the air, as if they were about to crash out of Mars! Only Han Xin and the three of them had a pleasant expression on their faces, and they just drank tea leisurely, because the doctrines of the soldiers and the various factions were different. It can only be used for military affairs, and it is basically impossible to talk about governing the country, so they just came to respond to the scene on behalf of the soldiers to show their existence!

At that moment, a scholar who was anxious stood up and said, "Your Majesty." The minister is a Confucian mourner, and the minister thinks that governing the country should be respected by my Confucianism?" Someone at the bottom snorted. Obviously unconvinced, Fusu looked at the young and dashing Confucian master, and said with a smile: "Oh, why did Mr. say that?"

Mourning shook his spirits. He cleared his throat and said: "The ancient Yao, Shun, Yu, Tang, Wenwu, and Zhou Gong were the first saints, but in the past five hundred years, only one Confucius has been a saint!" And my Confucianism is the study of the sages. It is much better than the rest of the doctrines!"

Someone laughed when he heard this: "Your Majesty, the minister is the Taoist Uncle Sun, and listen to the courtier's refutation of the fallacy of the mourning public!" Mourning Gong said that Confucius is a saint, and his Confucianism is a saint, but please don't forget that Lao Tzu was a teacher of Confucius, so Confucius is a saint, and who is my Taoist Lao Tzu? What is the status of my Lao Tzu's learning? It must be self-explanatory!" After speaking, the public said goodbye with a sense of complacency!

Fu Su laughed secretly in his heart when he heard this: "These scholars are all sharp and sharp, amazing!" But he was unconvinced: "Five years ago, only I, Confucius, can be called a saint, Lao Tzu's doctrine has too many fallacies, and it is not worthy of being a saint at all, Sun Gong and don't be complacent, and listen to Yuan!" My Confucianism advocates that 'etiquette is the foundation of the country', and only by respecting the etiquette system can the country be orderly, and there will be no disasters such as kings and ministers. However, Lao Tzu said, 'Etiquette is the skin of the Tao, the head of chaos', which is a complete fallacy! My saint also said: People should learn to be wise, to be tireless in learning, to learn and learn from time to time, to seek benevolence with wisdom, the so-called 'morning hears the Tao, and death can also be done'. But Lao Tzu said: In ancient times, people who were good at doing the Tao did not teach the people to be smart, but to teach the people to be simple, and the reason why the people were difficult to govern was because they had too much ingenuity, so using wisdom and ingenuity to govern the country would only produce more thieves, and not using wisdom to govern the country would make the country happy. To put it this way, isn't it better to ask people to be as stupid as possible? So what wisdom do we need to learn? In my opinion, according to Lao Tzu, there is no need for your Taoist to exist!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone present laughed, there were many people who were interested in disasters and misfortunes, Uncle Sun was speechless, he had to blush, and he couldn't get off the stage for a while! Mourning was proud, and suddenly a person got up and said: "I am a Taoist thoughtful, Yuan Gongxiu should be proud, and listen to a certain word!" Lao Tzu said that the origin of the Yellow Emperor, Yi Yin, the distant Peng Zu, its gist is pure and inactive, not virtuous, not still fighting, conform to the way of heaven, to rule the world with nothing, so there is Yao, Shun, Yu, Tang of the virtue of politics, Shang 600 years of peace, Zhou 800 years of the world. It can be seen that my Lao Tzu's words are very practical and love the people, which is very beneficial to the long-term peace and stability of the country, and most of Confucius's Confucianism is unashamed and exaggerated and impetuous words, how can it be compared with my Taoism, otherwise for hundreds of years, why has no country governed the country with Confucianism and achieved great success?" As he spoke, Zhou Zhi glanced around, proud and complacent. Another Taoist scholar added: "What Zhou Gong said is very good, if today's chaos is settled, the people are tired. It is necessary to cure it by doing nothing, so that the people can recuperate, how can they be tossed and turned indiscriminately!"

Hearing the words, Ai Ang scratched his ears and cheeks, but he couldn't find a rebuttal for a while, so he had to sit down, but his face was unconvinced. At this time, another person among the Confucian scholars jumped up and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is a Confucian Confucian Kong Miao, the descendant of a saint, and listen to the minister refute the words of the Duke of Zhou!" The saint said, "The prayer has been restored." The world is here! Why did the usurpation of Hu Hai and Zhao Gao, and the rebellion of the Kwantung princes happen a few years ago? It is because the national rules and regulations are not established, the etiquette is broken, the son is not the son, the father is not the father, the minister is not the minister, and the king is not the king! Now the world is settled, the princes are weakened, and they are determined to make great efforts to govern the country, and the changes are renewed. It's a great time to do something! And Lao Tzu said that he always said that he did nothing and did nothing, wouldn't there be a phenomenon of sitting back and watching the world collapse again!? Today's people are no longer as simple and indisputable as the old people of the ancients, but the Taoists still stick to the ancient theories and do not seek an inch. Wouldn't you be laughed at by the wise!?"

Zhou Zhi was dumbfounded, and he was at a loss. Another Legalist scholar jumped out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister and Legalist Wang Zang, you have to argue with Confucianism and Taoism!" Dare to ask Kong Gong, what you said is promising. Are you planning to overthrow the national policy of my Qin State for hundreds of years?" Kong Miao said: "To be promising is to update the law, rejuvenate and revere virtue, respect the holy king, and be outside!"

Wang Zang was furious and said: "Nonsense! Changing the ancient law. Disrupting the country's capital will inevitably lead to chaos in the world! My Legalist family has ruled Qin for hundreds of years, the country has prospered, and the six countries have been swept away, what a majesty it is! As for the two schools of Confucianism and Taoism, one talks about what to do and the other talks about what to do and govern, but they are all general and empty theories, and they have no merit, aren't they laughed at by the wise?" The Legalists and scholars were triumphant and laughed!

Kong Miao suddenly blushed and had a thick neck, and said angrily: "Only by constantly updating can we progress, Xia Ji was tyrannical back then, so Shang Tang raised a promising teacher and took away his world." Later, Shang was tyrannical, and Zhou Wu rose up as a promising teacher, and also took away his world. There are good and evil in the ancient law, and the evil law is not eliminated, and the good law is not established! The good law of the past may become an evil law today. If the law of the Gang is not broken, then today, isn't it still the world of the Tsubas!?"

Wang Sheng also burst into a rage when he heard this: "Nonsense, according to what you say, my Great Qin's national politics for hundreds of years have been tyranny!?" If you don't change, there will be people who will rise up and rebel!? Your Majesty, Kong Miao ridiculed the state politics viciously, please punish him for the crime of contempt for the state affairs!" Please Your Majesty to cure Kong Miao's contempt for the crime of national politics!" All Legalists and scholars hurriedly echoed!

Kong Miao was also terrified, knowing that he was excited for a while, and there was a suspicion of sarcasm in Qin Fa's tyrannical words, and he couldn't help but look at Fusu with an expressionless face with some trepidation.

Fusu was hearing this, and suddenly saw all the legalists clamoring to cure Kong Miao's sin, and smiled: "You wait for a while, don't be impatient." So far, only the three schools of Taoism, Confucianism, and Law have spoken, and it is just that the soldiers are suitable for governing the army and not for governing the country, so why don't the Mo family and the Zongheng family say a word?"

Mo Yu smiled when he heard this: "Your Majesty, you are my Mo family's 'Juzi', what do you want to say, are you still not familiar in your heart!" Moreover, the ministers have also heard His Majesty's teachings that my Mohist doctrine is indeed biased and is not suitable for governing the country as a subject, but it is still okay as a supplement!" Fu Su smiled when he heard this: "Mo Gong is really getting more and more cunning, what about the Zongheng family?"

Hearing this, one person stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is Wang Tao of the Zongheng family, judging from the performance of the outstanding people in my generation, Su Qin and Zhang Yi, the study of Zongheng is only suitable for the competition of interests between countries, but it is not very useful for governing the country, so it is as difficult as Moxue to govern the country as the main body, and can only be supplemented!" Your Majesty, please judge it!"

The Mohists and the Zongheng are very smart, and they know that their academic influence and academic applicability are not as good as Confucianism, Taoism, and Law, and it is difficult to win the first place, so it is better to be low-key and compete for the second, which is much easier!

Fusu laughed when he heard this: "Okay, according to Lian's understanding of the academics of various factions, and Shicai has listened to the debate of Zhugongdi, and he already knows which is better and worse, please listen to Lianyi's words!" When the scholars heard this, they hurriedly sat down and listened to Fusu's words.

Fusu Zhengse said: "In fact, in the view of the Union, among the six schools of Confucianism, Mo, Taoism, Law, Vertical and Horizontal, and Bing, Confucianism, Taoism, and Law can be used as the main body of the doctrine, and the three schools of Confucianism, Taoism, and Bing are also the best among the independent leaders, all of which have merits, but all have shortcomings, so all of these six schools of doctrine are used, but not all!" As he spoke, he glanced at the people.

The scholars of the various factions under the stairs were a little wooden, and looked at each other: "All the factions use it, but all the factions don't use all of it, what does this mean?"

Seeing this, Fusu smiled and said: "Lian has heard a few ancient sayings, one is: 'The sea is inclusive.'" There is tolerance is great', the second is: 'If you listen to it, you will be clear, and if you listen to it, you will believe it', although you and other schools of doctrine have their own advantages, but the disadvantages are also very obvious, so they should be used all, but not all!"

Someone seemed to understand a little when he heard it, so he asked: "Your Majesty, Li Qing, the minister and the Zongheng family, listen to what Your Majesty said, each faction has its own advantages and disadvantages, can you please ask Your Majesty to elaborate!" Scholars also chimed in. I want to hear what the advantages and disadvantages of each faction in the mind of an emperor like Fusu are.

Fusu nodded and said, "Then let's talk about it!" Lian is the 'giant' of the Mo family, let's listen to the Mo family first! The basic characteristics of the Mo people are love, harmony, thrift, and cessation of disputes, and because of the harsh environment for hundreds of years, they have developed a group of powerful factions to protect themselves by force, which can be the outliers among the factions!

The main shortcomings of Mohist scholarship are the two aspects of saving and stopping disputes, which are described separately. Economy: The Mohist concept of festival has been harsh to the point that it is best for the world to be clothed and light, and the straw mat of the hut, in fact, thrift is not bad, but if it is too much, then the problem is big! For example, the country must develop and the economy must be strong. If everyone in the people is so frugal, how can the standard of living be improved!? How does the exchange of materials work!? How strong is the country's economy!? How can I reflect the majesty of my Chinese Celestial Empire!? So this view is very unrealistic, and everyone in the world has **. If you make one dollar today, you will want to earn two dollars tomorrow, and if you have fish to eat today, you will want to eat meat tomorrow. And the kind of people who can really be pure and have few desires are a minority after all, so the Mohist school has been circulating for hundreds of years, and the main reason why it has little influence is this!

Another point is that stopping the dispute is also a big problem: the main use of force established by the Mo family is to protect oneself and protect the weak against the strong. At first glance, well, Mojiadi is indeed a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, robbing the rich and helping the poor. Okay, but I don't know how wrong it is! is still that good saying, everyone in the world has **, and there will be strife, and strife is reflected in the body of a country's monarch and ruling class is war, so as long as there are people, it is impossible to have no war in this world, this is the place that no sage or ancestor can change, the Mo family has been fighting fires everywhere for hundreds of years, but the flames are still burning everywhere is this truth. In the end, the Mohist family was jealous of all countries because of going against the sky, so that the doctrine of this school went underground, and the influence became smaller and smaller.

But Momen also has advantages, and there are many advantages, such as loving the monk and the monk. These two points are very well mentioned, why do I call myself the Celestial Empire and the Central Empire in China, it is because of the existence of etiquette, respect for the old and love the young, respect for each other as guests, respect for the sages, and seek common ground while reserving differences, which is one of the core parts of my Chinese culture, which is also an important reason why Momen has been at a low ebb for hundreds of years, but still has a lot of disciples! This is similar to Confucianism!

But it is not this that values Momen the most, but the powerful scientific and technological power of Momen. Don't think that Momen's technology is all kitsch and obscenity, they are all pillars for the country, the people, and the country! Only when the country has excellent weapons can it resist foreign obscurity and protect the people; With advanced equipment, craftsmen can quickly and well produce a large number of instruments for industry, agriculture, commerce, learning, and military industries, so that the country's national strength is strong, the economy is prosperous, and the people are happy!

According to the above, after the United Nations, some of the Momen classics will be properly preserved as historical materials, but the mission of Momen as a theory of statecraft came to an end, because Momen was not suitable for governing the country, and most of its advantages were shared by other schools. Of course, the Momen armed forces will also be disbanded and reorganized by the state. However, Momen will always exist, because the Union decided to transfer all the energy of Momen to science and technology, and soon the court will set up a Ministry of Science and Technology with the scientific and technological strength of Momen as the main body, equivalent to Jiuqing, with strong financial support from the state, convening Momen and the best craftsmen in the world, and making every effort to enhance the status of Momen and craftsmen through state institutions, so that the Ministry of Science and Technology can provide strong scientific and technological support for all walks of life in the country. The development slogan drawn up by the Union for Momen is: 'Strengthen the country and rejuvenate the army, science and technology as the foundation'! Are the elders of the Momen still satisfied with the arrangement of the Union?"

Mo Yu and others are a little happy, but also a little lonely, happy that Momen has finally stepped onto the political stage in a bright and bright way, but it is not based on its governing theory, but its scientific and technological strength, which seems to be a bit of a sacrifice, but this is the best ending of Momen, it is better than gradually dying out, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers must be loyal and dutiful for the country." Live up to your majesty's high expectations!"

Fusu nodded and said: "Let's talk about the Zongheng family again, like Momen, the Zonghengjia is not suitable as a major theory for governing the country, but it is still necessary to use it as a supplementary force for governing the country like Momen."

There are no obvious shortcomings in the doctrine of vertical and horizontal, and its advantages are practical and utilitarian. An excellent columnist like Su Qin and Zhang Yi is based on outstanding eloquence and rich knowledge, with strong national strength as the backbone, with the maximization of national interests as the goal, and in order to achieve the most idealized realm of surrendering without a fight!

One of the current Jiuqing in our country, the 'Dianke', does such a thing, but it is not systematic and imperfect, so in the future, the Zonghengjia and local forces will be in charge of the Dianke. Run for the interests of my Qin State and go to the four countries. The development slogan formulated by Lianwei Zonghengjia is 'there are no eternal friends between countries, only eternal interests', and I hope that you will be the first standard of government affairs in the future. Are you still satisfied with the arrangement of the couplets, and the scholars of the vertical and horizontal doctrines?"

Zhu Zonghengjia was overjoyed when they heard this, although they couldn't get the status of a great theory of governing the country, but it was quite good to take a piece of land from Jiuqing, and hurriedly thanked him: "Your Majesty!"

Fusu looked at Han Xin and the others again: "As for the soldiers, it is a special case among all the doctrines. The special has a long history in the military family, and it can even be older than Huang Lao's learning. Because some people start to have wars, and wars start to have military studies, so they talk about seniority. Among the factions, the military should be the leader, and its degree of perfection is also beyond the reach of each faction.

But the doctrine of the military is only suitable for the management of the army. It is not suitable for governing the country, so it can only be ruled by the Taiwei Mansion of the Three Princes of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China like Momen and Zonghengjia! Because the school of soldiers has developed very well, and the federation has been restructured more in the past years of campaigns, everything is according to the old practice. No change yet!

However, in view of the special status of the soldiers to protect the country and protect the people, the United Nations also sent a word to the soldiers to encourage the soldiers, "The soldiers are the sharp weapons of the country." I hope that the generals will remember this sentence and use it to encourage themselves!"

"Your Majesty, please remember!" Han Xin and the others were also very happy to see that Fusu valued the soldiers so much!

Fusu looked at Confucianism, Taoism, and Law again, and these three families saw that Momen, Zonghengjia, and Bingjia all had a piece of territory, and they were itching, and they all looked at themselves with a smile: "Confucianism, Taoism, and Law are three schools of governance with an overall scope, each with its own advantages and disadvantages, so let's comment on it together."

Taoism pays attention to Taoism and nature, everything conforms to the will of heaven, there is no dispute with the world, and there is nothing to do in governing the world. In Yilian's view, Taoism has his advantages: it does not disturb the people, does not abuse the people, restricts the power of the monarch, and loves the people; Moreover, Taoism pays attention to the protection of nature, and there are many accurate expositions of the philosophy between heaven and earth, such as: Tao can be Tao, extraordinary Tao, name can be named, and very famous; It is not normal for a thing to survive and die, to die at a moment's notice, to flourish at the beginning and then to decline; Only the judgment of heaven and earth is also born, and those who do not die or decay until heaven and earth dissipate are said to be constant; There are also words of power, such as: If you want to do it, you will fix it; He who wants to be weak will be strong; If you want to abolish it, you will rejuvenate it; If you want to take it, you must fix it and so on, all of which can be described as reasonable and clear, and there is quite a merit!

However, there are many negative aspects of Taoism, such as the inaction of governing the world: whenever a country rises from war, the inaction of governing the world can solve the temporary difficulty, for example, it should be implemented now. But if the country is governed by inaction forever, the country will inevitably be weak and will be deceived by foreigners, so it is not impossible to rule by inaction, but it is not always feasible!

Another Taoist saying: The people can't make it known, it's a fallacy, if the people are ignorant, what is the difference between it and the grassland barbarians!? Why do you say that my Huaxia is the Central Empire!? Liankan is also similar to barbarians! Whoever says these things thinks that the people are fools, but the land of the union is: the eyes of the people are bright, and when the people are fools, he himself is a fool. Xia Wei was a fool when the people were fools, and he was overthrown by the people; When the people were fools, they were also overthrown, this is a bloody lesson!

Another Taoist also said: The country cannot be virtuous, and what is 'etiquette is the skin of the Tao, the head of chaos', which is even more ridiculous! The country does not use talents, how can it make the people happy and the country strong!? If there is no etiquette, how can I call Huaxia the Celestial Empire, isn't it the same as the barbarian!? If there is no etiquette, how can the country run in an orderly manner!?

In many, many places, Taoist theories are wrong, so it is a big mistake to use Taoism to control the country!"

After speaking, Fusu looked at the scholars of the Taoist family, all of them looked dejected, wanting to argue but not daring to argue. And the scholars of Confucianism and Legalism all look like they are happy! Fusu smiled secretly in his heart and continued: "Let's talk about Confucianism again. After hundreds of years of development and improvement, Lian cannot but say that Confucianism has become more perfect than Taoism, and it is more progressive significance.

Its advantages are: Confucianism emphasizes etiquette, pays attention to the six virtues, six elements, and six arts: the six virtues, wisdom, benevolence, holiness, righteousness, neutrality, and harmony, which are universal virtues and have no object; The six elements, filial piety, friendship, harmony, marriage, appointment, and compassion, this is a separate trip. There are objects; The six arts, etiquette, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, and mathematics, are all ways of self-cultivation to govern the country and level the world. With such an all-round development of morality, intelligence, physique, aesthetics, and labor, such talents can be said to be real talents, and paying attention to etiquette can also make the country more orderly, make the monarchs and ministers more like monarchs and ministers, and contribute to the long-term stability of the country.

In addition, Confucianism attaches great importance to education and pays attention to the integrity of inheritance, and Confucian scholars are seated. Almost all of them are one of the hundreds of disciples, Master Fang, don't be disrespectful! A country, how to do it. Lian wants to say that 'a century-old plan, education-oriented'. As a school that attaches the most importance to the transmission of academics, the vitality of Confucianism can be compared with that of soldiers! Moreover, if a country wants to develop, it must have a large number of talents, and where does this talent come from? It is to rely on education, so after thinking day and night, there is the experience of the eight words of 'a century-old plan, education-oriented'!

Also, Confucianism still studies the ancient, loyal and filial piety, and obeys the teacher. There are also Zunwang Zaoyi, etc., which is also conducive to the ideological unity of the people, easy to manage, and more conducive to the birth of a unified and tenacious Qin Empire. In the future, even if our Qin State is destroyed, as long as there is Confucianism, our Chinese nation can still be tenaciously spread without becoming torn apart or even disappearing from the world!

But the drawbacks of Confucianism are also very obvious, that is, pedantic! If etiquette is emphasized in everything, the country will become old-fashioned and uninnovative, and will not want to make progress in everything, but only seek to conform to etiquette, so there will be a very amazing evil result, that is: when Confucianism develops to the extreme, China may be very rich at that time, and the people may be very happy, but the whole country will appear weak, and then China will be reduced to a piece of blood on the chopping block of foreign races, to be slaughtered!

Some people will say, it doesn't matter, let's send the most knowledgeable Confucians and those barbarians to reason. Those nomadic herders who grew up in the grasslands and deserts only believe in 'iron and blood' and respect the strong as kings, so they don't care if you are polite or not! As long as you are weak, he will dare to bully you; If you are weak and rich, then you are even more unlucky: they will invade you and plunder you, rob you of your property, kill your relatives and friends, rape your wife, and only a strong army will make them fear in the face of such beasts, and all etiquette will be pale and worthless!

In addition, Confucianism is exclusive, and it cannot see the prosperity of other doctrines or the growth of martial arts, so that if Confucianism is allowed to dominate one family, it will inevitably make the country lose its innovative power and fall into a weak and rigid situation!

Judging from the above shortcomings of Confucianism, Confucianism alone cannot be used as the main strategy for governing the country!"

The Legalists were overjoyed when they heard this, and Confucianism and Taoism were all criticized by Fusu, and only the Legalists were left, but unexpectedly, Fusu's words made everyone in the Legalists dumbfounded. Fusu said: "As for the Legalists, my Qin State has been respected for hundreds of years, and Lian's feelings are also very deep, and Lian also talks about its advantages and disadvantages!"

The merit of Legalism is that it is orderly! The most important thing in a country is to have order, otherwise without order, no matter what theories and doctrines you have, they will be useless and useless.

With the Fa, the people will know what is right and what is wrong, what should be done and what should not be done! Most people do not have any noble moral sentiments, and only the use of the law can make them follow an order and form a good moral habit, which is the charm of Legalism! It is the most fundamental part of any scholarship, and only with Legalism as the foundation can the doctrines of all schools develop and grow!

But isn't the current Legalism very perfect? No, it has a lot of drawbacks too! It's too harsh and brutal, Lian is not afraid of self-criticism, the law of my Qin State is indeed too harsh, so as soon as Lian took the throne, he immediately abolished a lot of harsh laws, making the people a lot easier! But its shortcomings are far more than that, the most important point is that the current Legalists want to replace morality with strict laws, believing that everything can be regulated and constrained by law, which excessively stifles the nature and freedom of the world. It is okay to rule a vassal state with a legal family. Once the big country is in trouble, it will be obviously insufficient! Therefore, all kinds of riots in the previous dynasty arose because of this, so the current Legalists to govern the country are also the way to destroy the country!"

For a while, all the scholars were dumbfounded, Confucianism, Taoism, and law are not good, so the country can't just rely on Momen, Zongheng, and soldiers to govern the country, it's not the same, it's going to be over! Zhou Zhi got up and said, "Then what kind of doctrine does Your Majesty think can govern the country?"

Fusu said: "Lian Shicai said that Confucianism, Taoism, and Law are all used, but not all of them!" The meaning of the coupling is to remove some flashy things and some exaggerated and ethereal things from the two doctrines of Confucianism and Taoism, and take the essence of them. Then we will improve and preserve our country's martial and enterprising style, so that Confucianism will be the mainstay, supplemented by Taoism, and a new school will be formed to govern the country and the people! This is moral education! And the new school of doctrine intends to collectively call it 'morality'!

In addition, Legalism should not be discarded, because it is the foundation of all laws. However, Legalists should clearly distinguish between what the law should manage and what should not be managed. The law should be boldly legislated, and the more the better; What should not be governed by the law will be left to the 'moral theory' to educate morality!

Such. Zhu Qing should understand the meaning of the union, after the three schools of Confucianism, Taoism, and Law are removed and revised, the general theory of governing the country implemented by our Qin State is 'the coexistence of virtue and law.' Each performs his own duties', and regulates the people's thinking with 'moral theory'. And the Legalists regulate the words and deeds of the people, so that the people will not feel sad! What do you think?"

All the scholars were shocked when they heard this, and they were stunned by Fusu's extremely bold idea. Legalism is nothing. Although there were some changes in jurisprudence, the fundamental interests were not touched, and the territory was still stable, and the new doctrine of 'morality' encroached on the minds of the local people. They couldn't control it in the first place, so they didn't say anything, only Confucianism and Taoism were a little anxious.

Ai Ang got up and said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, how can this be made!" Although the minister listened to His Majesty's mantra and realized that my Confucianism and Taoism had some flaws, there was no need to merge the two into one, right!? If so, when I wait for it to pass away, will I have the face to see the saint?" This statement is not only agreed by Confucian scholars, but also by Taoist scholars, who are unwilling to merge the two schools!

Fusu said calmly: "The joint decision has been decided, and it cannot be changed!" You must not know much about the temper of the Lian, and the Lian will tell you that as long as the Lian is determined, it will definitely eliminate difficulties, and if you do not achieve your goal, you will not give up!

Listen, the Union is not going to force you to merge, but the Union is already preparing a few measures, you can listen to it, and then answer the Union:

First, the federation has ordered all counties and county yamen to collect various classics of Confucianism, Taoism, and Law, and send them to the capital, one as a permanent historical material, and the other as the basis for revision and merger, and will not stop because of your opposition!

Second, the United Decision ordered the Ministry of Science and Technology of Momen to develop something called 'paper', which was as white and thin as white silk, but the price was extremely cheap; In addition, a technique called 'movable type printing' is being developed, which can print books dozens of times faster than hand-copied books, and after the development of paper of equal value and convenient movable type printing, a large number of 'moral theory' and improved academic books of the Fa, Mo, Bing, and Zongheng schools will be printed on paper and sold throughout the country.

Third, the old church federation of Confucianism and Taoism is not opposed to your oral transmission or dissemination in the form of private bamboo slip records, but in the future, I will set up a publishing department, and all the printing and dissemination of paper books in our country must be approved by the publishing department, otherwise it will be **, and those who catch it will be beheaded!

Fourth, in addition to Jiuqing, Lenovo set up another Ministry of Education, which set up branches in each county and county, and collected students from all walks of life in the name of the court, and taught students various new school doctrines, such as 'moral theory', improved legal classics, Mojiadi science and technology classics, Zonghengjia's diplomatic classics, and various military classics of the soldiers. Moreover, in the future, basically the selection of China's Chinese and military officials will be selected from the outstanding students of the Ministry of Education, and the court will not consider those who are not particularly outstanding in the civilian sector!

If you agree to it, you will go back and do a good job of doing the ideological work of the students of all factions, so that in the future, there will be a place for you in the court, and the Ministry of Education and the Publishing Department will also be handed over to the control of the moral theory and the new school! If you don't agree, it won't take long for Lenovo to be under the power of the whole country, in addition to those classics in the Imperial Palace, you Confucianism and Taoism can also remind the world that there were two schools of thought in the world, "Confucianism" and "Taoism". I'm afraid no one will remember you anymore!"

The four families of law, ink, soldiers, and Zongheng snickered when they heard this: "The country has banned you like this, if you still don't die, then it's still a strange thing!" The Ministry of Education is a fat shortage, don't just give it to us!" Confucianism and Taoism looked at each other, and they were speechless!

After a long time, Zhou Zhi said with difficulty: "Your Majesty, if Your Majesty insists on merging the two factions, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among Confucians and Taoists in the world, and it will inevitably be chaotic in the world at that time!"

Fusu laughed when he heard this: "Zhou Qing don't bluff Lian, Lian is a general who has gone through thousands of battles." What kind of bloody scene have you never seen, are you afraid of just a few scholars! As the saying goes: 'Scholars rebel, a hundred years will not be successful', and the millions of male soldiers of the United Nations are worried that they have no chance to make meritorious contributions! If you think about it, the country is controlled by the Legalists, the army is controlled by the soldiers, the Mohists are the masters of science and technology, and the masters of diplomacy, they will rebel against you!? And ordinary people don't pay attention to these academic disputes, they just hope that they can live a good life without fighting. I won't die for you! Think about it, do you have the strength to make trouble with the United Nations? Let's be realistic and accept the choice of history!"

Uncle Sun said with a sad face. Faced with such an iron-fisted figure as Fusu, he could only beg: "Your Majesty." If you really want to suppress my Confucianism and Taoism, I am afraid that the name of a tyrant will inevitably be left in the history books! If you set the world again, your reputation is like the sky, but you can't lose a big one because of a small one!"

Fusu smiled: "Sun Qing." You'd be wrong! The reason why the Union merged Confucianism and Taoism was not because of selfish prejudice against you, but because of the interests of the country and the nation. Even if the Union now bears the name of a tyrant, but a hundred years later. When the country and the nation enjoy the benefits brought by the joint decision-making, history will also be innocent! Lian's determination to merge Confucianism and Taoism this time is unstoppable, and there is a sentence you should remember: no matter whether there is a cliff, a cliff, or an abyss in front of you, Lian is also fearless and alone!"

Suddenly, Han Xin got up and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, Erchen is willing to lead the Great Qin Iron Army to escort Your Majesty!" The ministers are also willing to listen to His Majesty's orders!" The scholars of the four factions of France, Mexico, soldiers, and vertical and horizontal all stood up, and they were either hardcore supporters of Fusu or vested interests, of course, they were on the side of Fusu, but the real power of the country was still in their hands!

The scholars of Confucianism and Taoism were a little desperate, crying and mourning each other, without saying a word! Fu Su smiled and said: "Today's national council talks about this, and the various governing theories that my Qin State will adopt in the future are also arranged, and the secretaries will return to the pavilion to rest!" As for your Confucianism and Taoism, you can wait, wait for three days, and give Lian a letter after three days!" Xiang Fu nodded as he spoke.

Fu Zheng was sleepy when he heard this, and he was overjoyed when he saw this, and hurriedly shouted at the top of his throat: "Your Majesty is driving Ganquan Palace!" As he spoke, the imperial chariot outside the south study came over and carried Fusu, who had a calm face, to the queen's bedroom! The scholars of the four factions of law, ink, soldiers, and vertical and horizontal also rushed out of the palace, ready to report the good news to their respective sects; However, the scholars of Confucianism and Taoism are all gloomy and faltering!

Three days later, after careful consideration, these Confucian and Taoist masters from Tiannan and Haibei still agreed to Fusu's merger! They have no choice, no compromise, the two are all finished, and the 'moral theory' will still be born, so they have to follow the trend of history!

But when the news spread to various places, except for a few enlightened people, many Confucians and Taoists who could not accept the news marched and protested, and the chaos in Qilu was the heaviest! After receiving the urgent news of the 'Qin Feng' flying pigeon, Fusu decisively ordered to send troops to suppress it, and after killing a group of people with an iron fist, the situation was stabilized within a month!

According to statistics from later generations, in the Confucianism and Taoism riots known as the 'Midsummer Rebellion', tens of thousands of Confucianists and Taoists were suppressed and arrested by the Qin State! However, this riot did not have the strong support of the three major strata of the people, the army, and the scholars, so the scale was small, limited to a small number of Confucianism and Taoist diehards, and did not cause much trouble to the country, but only added a little more talking point to the people after dinner!

However, Fusu took this opportunity to greatly eliminate a group of stubborn Confucians and defenders, and paved the way for the country's strong development and expansion in the future, although this made him a bit of a 'tyrant' in history!

A few years later, it was not until the new version of the "Theory of Morality" gradually took root in the hearts of the people with the enlightened concept of "respecting nature but not blindly following nature, promoting etiquette but not focusing on etiquette, being inclusive but not forgetting to strive for innovation, and basing itself on the national foundation but not forgetting to expand the territory", that the shadow of the "Midsummer Rebellion" gradually disappeared and gradually retreated in the long river of history!

Since then, a new Chinese nation with the martial Qin style as the base and the practical 'moral theory' as the wings has begun to gradually rise in the east of the world. It advocates science and technology to improve itself, it attaches importance to education to educate people, and it is familiar with the strong strength as the base to fall between countries, so a huge empire with super vitality began to gradually stretch out its "national weapon" to carry out the rapid pace of expansion!

Qin, this dynasty that has left a brilliant chapter in the long river of history will surely exude more brilliant brilliance!

This chapter is a humble and immature representation of a person's thoughts, but it is considered by Jazz to be the best way to govern in ancient times. Let's talk for entertainment, don't be more serious, and don't come to me for trouble if you have Confucianism and Taoism! Ha ha! After all, this is fantasy, not historical facts!
