Chapter 171: Legalist Thought

"Brother Huanghuang, in troubled times, you should use heavy codes, and if you want to govern troubled times, you must be fierce. When necessary, you can move out of the Qin law and follow the Legalist thought. Liu Fan said to Liu Hong.

Along the way, Liu Fan figured out a lot.

In his position, seek his government.

Even if it's just a small splash on the surface of the sea, he's going to try it.

"If the government is lenient, the people will be slow, and if it is slow, it will be corrected, and if it is fierce, the people will be brutal, and the remnants will be lenient, and it will be wide, and it will be politically peaceful. The first sage said that this idea of criminal law has cause and effect, and there is law in change. However, the law of governing the country is unpredictable, and the same governance has the opposite effect. In the past 400 years, the Legalists have been abandoned, if the Legalists can save the country, what if they pick it up? Liu Hong opened his mouth and said to Liu Fan.

If the policy is lenient, the people will be negligent, and if the policy is severe, the people will be harmed, and if they are harmed, they must change to a lenient policy, and use leniency to supplement severity, and use severity to assist leniency, so that the policy can be peaceful.

It shows that politics focuses on the balance of strength and fierceness, and it must be impartial.

The criminal law is a Confucian classic, compiled by Confucius, so it can be seen that this criminal law thought is affirmed and inherited by Confucianism.

Regarding Liu Hong's statement, Liu Fan was quite speechless. Now that he has withdrawn from the stage of history, how can it be so easy to make a comeback?

Since the deposition of Legalism, Confucianism has been the dominant ideology of the Han Dynasty. I don't know how many Han scholars there are?

Confucianism and Legalism are inherently antagonistic.

Legalism attaches great importance to "law" and opposes Confucian "rites". The Sanbei case and the Zhibow case in the Spring and Autumn Period are a typical example.

"Three North" means three battles and three norths, and "straight bow" refers to integrity and loyalty.

There was a man who walked upright in the state of Chu, his father stole a sheep, and he reported the official, Chu ordered Yin to handle the case according to the law, and his father was killed. Yes, it has achieved loyalty, and it has sunk filial piety, which is a case of direct bowing of the Legalists.

When Confucius was in power in the state of Lu, there was a man who fought for the country, but whenever the battle began, he fled. After being caught, he continued to run away, and so on three times. Confucius asked him why? He said: I have an old father, and when I die, I will not support him. Confucius, with his filial piety, canceled his military service, and he was filial piety, but he lost his loyalty. This is the Confucian Three North case.

What's right and who's wrong? Sanbei bows straight and can't be talked about.

The first role of Legalism is to "settle divisions and stop disputes", that is, to clarify the ownership of things. The second function is to "promote merit and fear violence", that is, to encourage people to make military exploits, and to make those lawbreakers feel fearful.

Legalists believe that all human beings have the nature of "good and evil" or "good and bad and avoid harm". It opposes retro conservative thinking and advocates forging ahead.

Legalism is an alternative among the sons of the pre-Qin Dynasty. Among the sons and families of the pre-Qin Dynasty, only the Legalist thought was that he had to sacrifice his life to practice it, and shed blood to pay tribute, which was a blood-stained thought. Among those who shed blood and gave their lives were not only many guilty or innocent nobles and poor people at that time, but also representatives of the Legalist school, such as Shang Ying and Han Fei.

The Legalist thought of the Warring States period was in some respects more comprehensive than the laws of later generations. If righteousness and courage are virtues in the afterlife, it is an obligation in the Qin law, and failure to fulfill it will be punished.

Another point is that Legalism emphasizes the centralization of monarchical power, and it is an absolute monarchy.

Shang Ying, Shen Dao, and Shen Bu Harm respectively advocated emphasizing the law, the situation, and the technique, each with its own characteristics. When it came to Han Feizi, the master of Legalist thought, Han Feizi put forward the idea of closely combining the three. Law refers to the sound legal system, power refers to the power of the monarch, to monopolize military and political power, and art refers to the strategy and means of controlling the ministers, grasping political power, and implementing laws and regulations. The main thing is to detect and prevent rebellion and maintain the status of the monarch.

Liu Fan personally believes that Confucianism is not as good as Legalism.

At the beginning of the Warring States period, the battle of Yin and Jin.

After the reform of Wei Wenhou, Wei was extremely powerful, and seized the land west of the Qin River, exposing the territory of Qin. A few years after the succession of Marquis Wu of Wei, the Qin State mobilized a large army, intending to seize the Hexi region seized by the Wei State in one go, and after many years of fierce battles, the Qin State once again mobilized 500,000 troops to attack the important city of Yin Jin on the eastward road. Wei Xihe guarded Wu Qi too much, with 50,000 "soldiers", 500 chariots, and 3,000 cavalry.

The chariot multiplication method is three armorers per vehicle, arranged on the left, center, and right. The left side of the armor holds the bow, the main shot, is the length of a car, called "the left of the car", the right side of the armor is the main stab, and has the responsibility of removing obstacles for the chariot, called "the right of the chariot", the center is the emperor who drives the chariot, and the car is generally equipped with a number of fighting weapons with handles, such as Ge, Zhen, halberd, etc., which are inserted on the side of the chariot for the armor to be used in battle.

Cavalry appeared, chariots were eliminated. History is always advancing.

Because of the proper reform of the Wei State, the soldiers were not afraid of death, and they repeatedly rushed to kill and defeated the Qin army.

In the decades after the war, the Qin state was in a state of collapse.

After Qin Xiaogong succeeded to the throne, he issued a meritocracy order, and Shang Ying Yu Wei entered Qin and reformed the law.

Abandoned well fields.

Heavy agricultural mulberry.

Award for military merit.

Implement uniform weights and measures. Establish a set of development strategies such as the county system.

After the successful reform, once the Wei State invaded, tens of thousands of people put on armor and rushed to the front line without waiting for the state to issue an order to gather troops.

Although Shang Ying became a victim of the reform, from then on, the West did not complain about Qin.

Zhang Yi broke horizontally and vertically, and Fan Ju attacked from afar.

Jia Yi passed the Qin theory, and the aftermath of Fen VI was martyred. Qin Shi Huang ruled Kyushu.

But in terms of education, Legalism is not as good as Confucianism. Confucius was the pioneer of civilian education and the initiator of teaching students according to their aptitude. Confucius Thought and Lao Tzu Thought are the beginnings of Chinese thought.

Yan Ying, who assisted Qi Jinggong in the Spring and Autumn Period, many people say that he is a legalist. But he went to provincial punishment, benevolent government, advocated frugality, and emphasized etiquette, in addition to looking down on life and death, his thinking was biased towards Confucianism.

Respect the elderly, love the young, and honor parents. This is also Confucianism.

Legalists in troubled times, Confucianism in prosperous times. Rigidity and softness are combined, and it is always the same.

But Confucianism and Legalism are too difficult!

"Zhang is not relaxed, and the civil and military are also capable; Relaxed but not relaxed, civil and military for the also. One piece and one relaxation, the way of civil and military affairs. Liu Fan sighed and said, "If Your Majesty promises your brother to prohibit selling official titles, your brother is willing to give it a try."

"I missed the opportunity, the country is like this, it's all my fault. I will order a ban on selling officials, if anyone in the palace violates the order? The emperor's brother cut first and then played. Liu Hong said with determination.

The governance of the people must be loose and tight, completely laissez-faire, and the country will not be a country; If the management is great, the people will not be able to suffer, and they will rise up and rebel.

It's like catching a bird in your hand, letting go of your hand, and the bird flies away. The hand is clenched so tightly that the bird will die. It is just right not to let the bird die, but also to let it fly.

Liu Fan's previous sentence had the meaning of teaching Liu Hong a lesson, and Liu Hong can listen to it now, and delegate rights to Liu Fan again.

The meaning has been made clear, if the ten permanent servants accept bribes and sell officials in private, they can be beheaded. When the time comes, he won't be able to do it.

PS: (Each chapter is more than 2,000 words, and the following words are not considered as the main text.) Believe in the quality of the author.

On March 6th, the editor asked to be put on the shelves, but he had to put it on the shelves, and he just asked the brothers to give a first decision, which is very important. It would be better if a rich tyrant chased it down with book coins.

After the source of the book-chasing artifact is changed, there are pirated books, and you can go to see them. There is also a browser search for "The World of the Late Han Dynasty", which can also be seen for free. If you are interested, you can vote for a recommendation every day.

Regarding the issue of updating, since I have a job, writing is a hobby, and I can't change five or six times a day like other great gods.

I am a four-shift two-inverted class, that is, white, night, rest, rest, and so on. On the two days at work, there are two shifts a day, and on the two days off, there are three shifts a day. If you owe it, you will make it up.

Of course, if you are in a good mood one day, you will stay up late and break out.
