Chapter 573: King Qin Wu Steals Beams and Switches Pillars, Jade Butterfly Long Sleeves and Good Dance (10)
Don't look at the weak strength of the Yiqu people at this time, it can't become any climate, before the millions of iron armor of Great Qin, it seems to be very small, but once the Qin State and South Korea are at war, the two sides will be stalemate, and the army of the Qin State will naturally go east, and when that time comes, the Xianyang City will be empty, and the Yiqu people, who seem insignificant at this moment, will inevitably become the henchmen of the Qin State at that time! In addition, if the time comes, if the inside and the outside are combined, the army will be exposed to South Korea, and there will be no return for a while, and the whole country will fall into a very dangerous situation! King Wu of Qin Yingdang was very clear about this, and seeing that Meng Shuo did not express his position, he continued:
"Did the general ever know that this dry river does not see any harm on weekdays, so this farmer will drive his cattle and sheep into the river to forage, who would have thought that this river is where the water flows, and when the upstream water comes, the people downstream will not have time to retreat, and they will have to lose some cattle and horses! Although the current Yiqu people are insignificant, after the army all goes east, these Yiqu people should not be underestimated!
At present, if these Yiqu people cannot be solved as soon as possible, there will still be problems sooner or later, and even if the Qin army can return to the division in time, it will delay the plan of the Eastern Crusade! Summoning the General tonight is to be able to find a foolproof solution! King Qin Wu said. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Meng Shuo had realized the seriousness of the problem, but he really didn't expect that King Wu of Qin, as a prince of a country, would be able to see the problem so thoroughly. But for a country, so the decision, must be cautious, repeatedly weighed, once the wrong decision is made, it is very likely, the whole country will fall into the abyss, no longer want to turn back, I am afraid there is no chance!
If the public is shaken, there will be less success; If you hide a large weapon and migrate it a few times, you will be defeated and injured; Cook a small fresh and scratch it, then it is a thief; If you govern a large country and change the law, the people will suffer. It is a gentleman of the Tao who is noble and quiet, and does not change the law. Therefore, it is said: 'Those who govern a large country are like cooking small fresh'.
"Those who cook small and fresh food cannot be scratched, those who govern a large country cannot be annoyed, annoyance hurts people, and scratching is rotten, this metaphor is also said. Small fresh, small fish also, cooking small fresh can not be scratched, scratching the fish will collapse, the big country, not annoying, annoying people are chaotic, all must use the Tao, so the first meaning of successfully 'governing a big country such as cooking a small fresh' is to govern the country with righteousness. Lao Tzu said in the "Tao Te Ching": "Govern the country with righteousness, govern the army with wonder, and take the world with nothing." "Governing the country with "righteousness" means that we must be upright and upright, and we must not engage in crooked ways; However, if the army is to be "strange," it is necessary to take it by surprise and attack it unprepared. It is not possible to use the "sophistry way" of leading troops to fight wars, and it is not necessarily feasible to use the "right way" of governing the country to lead troops to fight.
The Confucian master Xunzi was most opposed to improper governance and rampant power. Xunzi once said: "The ruler of the people, the king who is virtuous and virtuous, the law and the people are tyrannical, the lustful and deceitful are dangerous, and the power plot is overturned and the darkness is dead." ”
Governing the country by virtue is the road to kingship, ruling the country by rule is the road to hegemony, and establishing the country by power is the worst way to govern the country. When power tricks run rampant, they will lead the country into disorderly chaos. In such a country, internal friction will inevitably increase, and the cost will also rise sharply, and when it becomes impossible to cope with it, it will naturally go to extinction.
Specifically, to govern the country with righteousness is to have a set of benign rules to ensure the spontaneous operation of the state apparatus, and this rule can be consistent, not abolished by people, but stopped by events. Once the decrees are smooth, the state as an organizational system will function healthily and automatically without the need for too much intervention by the administrators.
At that time, in order to protect themselves, the princes of all walks of life changed their laws and tried to become stronger, but few of them succeeded in real reform. The main reason for this is that in the process of implementing the new law, it has been fettered by too many personnel and powers, so that it has no beginning and no end. During the period of Han Zhaohou, Shen Buxian was in charge of South Korea.
Shen Buxian broke the shackles of blood relatives, reused talents, and was determined to reform, bringing the weak South Korea into the ranks of the "Seven Heroes of the Warring States". However, Shin Bu has an older brother and wants to use his brother's relationship to get a half-official position in South Korea. So, Shen Buxian went to plead with Han Zhaohou.
However, Han Zhaohou rejected Shen Buxian's request: "It was originally your idea to select talents in an eclectic manner. And now, isn't it a contradiction that you're running for your brother again? It can be seen that when the country's reform policy conflicts with its own interests, the advocates of change themselves are not able to adhere to the principles, and the effect of the implementation of the new law can be imagined.
The only thing that succeeded in the reform was the new law implemented by Shang Jun in our Great Qin State. The reason why the Qin State was able to dominate the world was precisely because the Shang Emperor left a complete set of sound legal systems for our Great Qin State. Meritorious service will be rewarded, and punishment will be punished if there is a mistake, all of which will be transparently implemented in accordance with the provisions of the law, and will never play with power or operate in the dark. The most important thing is that rewards and punishments can be fulfilled in a timely manner, and the people will never lose their trust.
When Shang Ying first began to change the law, the decree had been formulated in detail but had not yet been promulgated, and Shang Jun was afraid that the people would not believe it, so he erected a three-zhang long wooden pole at the south gate of the bazaar in the national capital, and ordered that if anyone could get it to the north gate, he would be rewarded with ten gold. The people felt that this was strange, and no one moved it. Shang Ying also said, "You can take the reward of fifty gold." So a man went to the north gate with a wooden pole in disbelief. Shang Ying immediately ordered a reward of fifty gold to be given. At this time, Shang Ying ordered the promulgation of the law, and it really won the trust of the people.
Governing the country with righteousness and rewarding and punishing with faith is the key to Daqin's standing out in the world of gunpowder. Although Shang Jun is harsh, he is in troubled times, and fraud is rampant, but he can still not lose his trust in the people. With this alone, it is enough to rule the four seas and level the world. At present, the general knows everything and says everything, so he will not be in vain for the king's hard work! "King Qin Wu's rhetoric is extremely exquisite, and he carefully tells Meng Shuo what the country has to face and can't help but face!
"The king is humble and stupid, and I really don't know how to deal with it!" Meng said that he still didn't dare to express his chest directly, for fear of misjudging the situation!
The second meaning of "governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh" is to select talents and abilities. It's about putting the right people in the right places and making the most of their roles, rather than intervening in specific matters. "The monarch does nothing, and the minister does nothing". As the supreme administrator, the monarch does not have to do everything himself, but must learn to hand over the initiative to his ministers and give full play to their initiative.
