For Zhuangzi, Shang Ying's life was a bit extreme. Bayi Middle School? Wenwang (1)?. His death is undeserved. He can not only change the fate of the Qin State and the fate of mankind, but also protect himself and let himself live to the end of his life.

Now Zhuangzi is looking for a way to preach, spread Taoist doctrine to the world, save the world, and save his own life.

He believes that Shang Ying should have stopped a long time ago, and before Qin Xiaogong died, he should withdraw from the stage of Qin history and hide in the world. Instead of waiting until Qin Xiaogong died and there was no protective umbrella, he thought of running away.

But! Qin Xiaogong's death was also a little sudden, so that before he had time to make up his mind to leave, Qin Xiaogong died suddenly. And at this time, he still has a lot of things to do on his hands, and he can't get out of it if he wants to.

In a word! Shang Ying's death was self-inflicted! It's because he didn't make up his mind sooner. If he had made up his mind earlier, he wouldn't have done so much work.

Don't say it! Without him, the Qin State would not be able to sustain itself, and the earth would not rotate. Wrong! Shang Ying died, the Qin State did not perish, and the world of the Ying family continued.

But! At that time, he hadn't let go yet.

If he puts it down, he can roll up and walk away at any time. If he leaves before Qin Xiaogong dies, Qin Xiaogong will also handle the matter. Without him, the earth would still turn.

Similarly! Without him, the Qin State could not be strong, and the later Qin State may not be able to unify the Six Kingdoms and dominate the world. There will also be other vassal states that will rise up and dominate the Great Zhou world. It's just that! Time has to be moved back.

There is no martingale in history, human history continues, and the earth rotates in the same way.

With Shang Yang in history, human history has come to this day, and it still has not ushered in real peace. There are no more wars in a small area, there are no wars in a short period of time, and on the surface it is peaceful, but in other parts of the earth, there are still wars.

At a time when mankind has not yet found a correct guiding ideology to guide our existence, and when mankind is still rampant with the wrong guiding ideology of life, there is no real peace for mankind. It is only a short-term, small-scale, and regional peace.

Peace and happiness are two concepts, and peace does not equal happiness for all. Or! Most people are able to live a peaceful, happy life.

So! On the road of mankind's search for correct guiding ideology, any other achievement, which is said to be an achievement of mankind, is nothing more than human self-deception.

From this point of view, Shang Yang has no achievements.

Because! He did not bring true peace to mankind, he did not bring eternal happiness to mankind. He was just a figure in the history of the Qin State, creating a temporary happiness for the people of a certain period in the history of the Qin State and for the people in a certain range. Afterwards! With the strength of the Qin State, the people of the Qin State were involved in decades of war.

In the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty, in the history of China, the later wars still continued, and the people were still in dire straits, and they did not bring a happy life because of the changes of the Shang Dynasty.

So! Zhuangzi thought that Shang Ying's death was not worth it, because he was too bad to live. He has no achievements in the history of mankind, he only has a little achievement in the history of the Qin State, and he only brought a short happy life to the people of the Qin State during the Qin Xiaogong period.

If you must give Shang Ying a meritorious rating, then! We are also meritorious! We support our parents and elders, so that the elders can live a happy old age. We raise and educate our children, so that they can understand life, avoid detours in life, and live a happy life. We are kind to people and help those in need. We are respected, and we are just as meritorious.

The difference between us and Shang Yang is that the scope is different and the situation is different. We are around the family, and Shang Yang is within the Qin state.

If you have to boast about Shang Martingale? So? Put Shang Ying in the Great Zhou world? What about putting Shang Ying into the long river of human history?

If that's the case? Shang Ying's merits are not big, so it is not worth talking about.

So! Zhuangzi thinks: Shang Yang is too bad to live! Shang Ying's life realm is not high, he only looks at life and the value of life from the height and realm of the Qin Xiaogong period of the Qin State, not from the height and realm of the long river of human history, let alone from the height of the Tao.

It was precisely because Zhuangzi cared about life, the life of being born a human being, his own life, the lives of the people he loved, and the protection of his relatives that he gave up preaching publicly.

It's not that he Zhuang Zhou doesn't preach, but Song Kuocheng doesn't let him preach. Song Cucheng threatened him with death and used means to persecute him. So! He can only pretend to compare!

In fact! He Zhuang Zhou is reckless!

He can lead the Taoists to destroy the Song Kingdom, he can use the Song Kingdom as the base of Taoism, and he can be famous all over the world, or he can be famous for a while.

But the result of that?

If he does that, as for whether mankind has a happy life or not, mankind in the future, no! Whether the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty are all Taoists or not, he can't come. But! He would only see with his own eyes that his father-in-law, Bai Gui, might have died at the hands of Song Quecheng's die-hard black-clothed guards that day. And also! His uncle, Song Juecheng, may also die at the hands of the scholar in white.

Not only will these two close relatives die, but once the fight starts, both sides don't know how many people will die, including himself.

At that time, he was not a real human body, his sword had no eyes, and he could die at any time.

Not that you are afraid of death, but! Is there any point in dying like this?

Is it exactly the same as Shang Ying's death? Does it make sense?

If we can live, why don't we choose to live?

Why do you have to achieve a certain goal of your own and sacrifice yourself and your loved ones?

It doesn't matter if others regard us as relatives or not, we treat them as dear ones. No matter who Song Quecheng treats him, I treat him as a relative.

For the sake of his loved ones, for his own life, for his father, spouse, and children, Zhuangzi chose to give up. He chose to give up the opportunity to seize power in the Song Kingdom, he chose to give up the opportunity to preach publicly, and he chose to pretend to live a poor life......

In fact! He can be desperate, like his master Yang Zhu, he can't stay in the Song Kingdom, he can go to other vassal states in the Great Zhou world. The other vassal states could not tolerate him preaching, and he could choose to be like his master Yang Zhu, wandering the world and preaching secretly.

But! After making such a choice, his parents, spouse, and children will all suffer because of his choice, and they will all wander the world like him, with nowhere to hide. Maybe? His relatives, like Yang Zhu's relatives, mostly died under the pursuit of others.

Under the instinct to survive, under the idea of protecting his loved ones, he gave up everything.

Judging from the temporary situation, Zhuangzi's choice is very cowardly, not as vigorous as Shang Ying. But! From the point of view of human history, he was equally successful. Because! Eventually, he passed on the Taoist teachings.

In fact! Shang Ying's death was not vigorous. He died on charges of rebellion and rebellion. In the territory of Qin at that time, no one dared to rehabilitate him. To put it bluntly, he died with "infamy". Those who appraised him for historical merits are posterity and history.
