Now, it's Li Zhi's turn to be dumbfounded, what I'm saying is absolutely the truth, in Chang'an City, just pull someone out to ask, every word and deed is eye-catching, and Ben Gongzi, who often becomes the target of some Confucian masters, is definitely the most maverick in Chang'an City, but I have always turned a deaf ear to those old guys' accusations against me, even if I bump into them in person, I don't bother to bother with these old guys, and I have made all kinds of remarks in newspapers and magazines all year round, and criticized some corrupt officials and corrupt officials, Even the entire Datang can be read in the press, and this is not the end. I adopted my disciples, gave them the opportunity to live, to live better, and let them learn about culture, and not only that, but I also helped people like Luo Bing Wang, who had never met him, and there were countless such acts of personal favor.

"But is it really wrong to do all this for the teacher? Or in the eyes of some people who have crossed the border, they look at others with colored sunglasses, and guess others with their own narrow mentality, do you think such people are really in line with the country's righteousness? In line with my Tang Dynasty? "I threw a series of questions on Li Zhi's head one after another, so that this guy couldn't catch it, and Wan'er, who was standing next to me, listened to it even more swaying, for me, a talented person? Well, the master of virtue and virtue feels sincere admiration.

I looked at Li Zhi, who was silently thinking, and said gently: "Xiaozhi, do you know, how can I have a prosperous era in the Tang Dynasty?" The reason why the world has been ruled and the people have returned to their hearts is because there are many ministers in the court who do not yield to His Majesty's heavenly authority, speak out and dare to admonish, and express different views and opinions, so that His Majesty can pick up the missing and fill in the gaps......"

Li Zhi raised his eyebrows, raised his eyes and looked at me, I looked at Li Zhi blankly, my eyes did not dodge or retreat, everything I said seemed so above board: "In academic disputes, and even urgent arguments about the handling of the government and politics, people can of course argue with each other, argue with each other, and the so-called truth becomes clearer and clearer, and this is the truth."

If someone is not convinced, just look for evidence to convince the opponent, so that if he cannot convince others, or if someone's point of view is clearly wrong. But this person has a murderous intention, and wants to destroy the opponent from ** to soul, do you think in this way, the truth will really stand on this person's side? Future generations will always be smart, he can always find out the truth of the facts, in the end, lose or win, who can hide it? And because of academic discussions, or disputes over the program of governing the people, and even want to put the other party to death, can such a person be regarded as a so-called saint, or a person who is really worried about the country and the people? ”

--------------------------------------------------- I don't dare to say all these words, but at least I look at this issue from a moral perspective, if it is really because of academic problems to shout and kill each other, then when the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period came from, where did a hundred schools of thought contend?

Shao Zhengmao put forward his own idea of governing the country at that time, that is, the rule of law. It was because it was contrary to Confucius's etiquette that Confucius could not tolerate it and used his power to kill Shao Zhengmao. What is the difference between the rule of law and the rule of law? Etiquette is the establishment of a ceremonial system, that is, the so-called monarch and ministers, fathers and sons.

Use moral education to make people comply with these systems. The idea of the rule of law is to establish strict laws to govern the country and use strict punishments to make people obey the system. The era of Confucius was an era of thinkers, and the cultural and ideological fields of that time were diverse, and everyone could put forward their own political ideas. Therefore, there can be a phenomenon of a hundred schools of thought contending. That ideological debate was arguably the most spectacular in Chinese history. It's a pity that Confucius killed Shao Zhengmao because his political ideas were different from his own. In today's terms, Shao Zhengmao was Confucius's political enemy and dissident. Then it is normal to exclude dissidents. But the question is, Confucius preached the idea of benevolence, and even the kings of various countries at that time could allow the existence of different opinions, as the leader of Confucianism, why was Confucius so hostile to dissent?

So where is Confucius's benevolence? Most of the Confucian scholars in later generations did not admit that Confucius had killed Shao Zhengmao in history, and perhaps they also felt that Confucius lacked consideration in the handling of this matter, so they were denied by His Holiness. I want to cover up the facts and the truth, whether it is the truth or not, but this case is just like a heavy alarm bell, which I took over and struck Li Zhi, the future emperor of the Tang Dynasty, in the heart, the purpose of which is to make him vigilant.

"Master's words, the rule has been taught, everyone has their own thoughts and behaviors, even if he is really wrong, this does not mean that he is a crime, if this is the case, how can there be a hundred schools of thought in ancient times, even if I am the Tang Dynasty, the ruling court, also have their own ideas, if you really want to punish crimes, I am afraid that even I, the prince, have to be the same as Brother Jun." Li Zhi was very good at talking, slapped me on the back a little, and expressed his heart to me very clearly, representing that he agreed and agreed with my point of view.

"Xiaozhi can have this idea, it is very comforting for the teacher, my Datang can have all the countries to come to the court, relying on the sea to embrace all rivers, tolerance is great, and I will never scold people because of words, let alone punish people for trumped-up crimes, so my Datang can exist so many religions at the same time, and only then can those people from other countries admire the broad and broad mind of my Datang from the people to the court." I nodded approvingly at Li Zhi and smiled.

Speaking of this, I couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Your father once said above the court: 'People can't live anymore when they die, and law enforcement must be lenient and simple' and once made an appointment with the courtiers: 'I take the death penalty as the heaviest, so I order it to be repeated three times, and I am familiar with the details of my thoughts.'" And in a moment, three times have been over. and the ancient torturers, the king is happy to reduce the meal. There is no permanent pleasure in the court, but it is often not eaten with wine and meat, but there is no order. and hundreds of divisions decided the case, only according to the law, although there are circumstances, but do not dare to break the law, how can there be no grievances in the meantime! ’……”

To kill a prisoner on death row, he had to report to the emperor three times to decide whether or not to impose the death penalty, so as to reduce the death penalty and make no mistake in vain. It is also stipulated that when the death penalty is imposed, it is said that wine and meat are not eaten yet, and there is no music in the inner teaching workshop and too often, because wine can confuse the surname, and music can make people indulge in emotion, and they cannot think about the surname, so that the emperor can think calmly at the last moment before the execution, so as not to kill innocent people by mistake. The ancient emperor has never been able to do this, and he has never even heard of what he says, so Uncle Li is alone. The praise and admiration for Uncle Li is absolutely endless, because he is worthy of learning from every emperor of the Chinese nation, and even the authorities of later generations should also learn from him.

Without Uncle Li, it would be impossible to create a Tang Dynasty like today, among the ancient emperors, he is the only one who can be so highly respected by me personally, as for Li Zhi, he is just crossing the river by touching his father's footprints, although there are some achievements, but if the founder does not lay a solid foundation, how can Li Zhi go to the next level?

--------------------------------------------------- as the Western barbarians say, he is nothing more than standing on the shoulders of giants to pick fruits. And Li Zhi is also such a person, but I am here, the second male room of the excellent crossing, with the precipitation of historical knowledge thousands of years later, with the brilliance of the sun, wearing a white and immaculate robe, with a face of wisdom, walked to Li Zhi, who has not yet been able to develop his potential, very kindly instructed, trained this little boy, pouted his advantages and strengths, and praised his shortcomings and bad qualities, so that he could walk more resolutely and more ambitiously in the pace of history.

Let future generations know that the Tang Dynasty is not just a one-person Tang Dynasty, but a Tang Empire established by several wise monarchs. It is best to form a system, a norm, and a system that is so tough that subsequent emperors have to continue to abide by it, so that the Tang Dynasty can be prosperous forever.

Well, anyway, Lao Tzu is not a revolutionary party, and he doesn't want to change Uncle Li's life, let alone the life of the Tang Dynasty, and I don't want to change the life of myself, a big capitalist, a capitalist roader, and a stinky old nine. What I need to do is to play a subtle role in pushing the Tang Empire into the greatest, most enlightened, most lasting and most powerful imperialist country of mankind, and laying a solid foundation for the global integration of the Tang Dynasty. Well, as for the glorious task of occupying the solar system and unifying the galaxy, I still leave it to my children and grandchildren, let's not join in that excitement, fighting life and death with aliens is not my hobby, our hobby is to train leisurely and leisurely.

As for the goal of my training...... Well, thinking of this, I couldn't help but subconsciously glance back at Wan'er, the beautiful girl, the prince who is a little lacking in heart, and the handsome lady at home, and the Tang Dynasty who is steaming, these are the favorite targets of this son's training.

"Yes, my father has also admonished Xiaozhi many times, to establish the country by force, but you can't rule the country by force, those who govern the country must not rule the world with the thought of one person, the affairs of the government must be thought twice before acting, the government is related to the rise and fall of the country, but if there is a mistake, it will inevitably hurt the foundation of the country. As an emperor, he must be able to listen to the good and the bad, and consider the gains and losses from both sides of the matter, which is what a politician needs to do the most. Li Zhi's eyes were full of admiration and admiration, and it could be seen that he was proud and proud to have such a great father.
