Chapter 452: Assertion and Soil

The wine in the cup was as quiet as ice, and the hustle and bustle in the Yuelai Inn was far away and could not enter Sun Bin's heart. The disabled wise man is now filled with confusion and contradictions, as he realizes that the war will not end, it will only get worse. If the Qin reform succeeded in stimulating the power of the landlords, then the Qin state would become the second Wei state.

And the strength of Wei and the benefits of Wei Wushu, Sun Bin felt it deeply, just because the geographical environment of Wei was not good, no matter where he expanded, he would encounter the cooperation of other countries, so the strategic direction of Wei was actually suppressed, although Wei once obtained a large amount of land, but in the end it was suppressed.

But there is also the Qin State, and after the Qin State, there may be other countries that will change the law one after another, and as long as the law is changed, it is destined to have war. Because the aristocracy will not let their own profits, and want to control the landlords in the country, they will inevitably grab land and distribute it to the landlords. That's why the world is restless.

figured out this, but there was no solution, and there was no way to make the domestic nobles give profits to the landlords, so it was doomed to be followed by a fire.

If you want to avoid war, you must have the domestic aristocracy to give up, and then the landlord learns the new rules, so that both sides can be at peace and perform their duties, but how can the nobles be willing to give up? King Qi is already a wise monarch, but he definitely can't do it.

To put it simply, the rules of the game of the aristocracy have been outdated, and there are too many dirty things among the nobles, so that the landlords have lost their fear of the aristocracy, and the landlords also want to have the same status and rights as the nobles.

In fact, the nobles of various countries also realized that it was difficult for the original Zhou Li to mobilize national strength, so they also began to give landlords a certain amount of room to rise. However, the power of the old aristocracy was still huge, and the Wei State was a good example, and the rising landlords quickly integrated into the ranks of the old aristocracy and betrayed the landlord class.

The decline of the Wei State was the counterattack of the old aristocracy. After all, it is very common for people to die in this era, such as the Qin State, who insisted on implementing the law of Shang Marting, and liberated and even overdrafted the landlords' country, which was really a unique miracle of the Warring States.

Sun Bin found that everything in the end was actually the contradiction between the aristocracy and the landlord, and the aristocracy was still immersed in their own world without knowing it, which was a harbinger of destruction.

Looking up at the calm young man opposite, Sun Bin found that the other party knew what the problem was, but there was no solution to the problem, but the other party didn't seem to be worried, so he asked: "Through your inspiration, I have realized that the future war will only become more and more fierce, and the contradictions between countries will become more and more intense, all because the blood and etiquette of the nobles cannot include the landlord, and the landlord has to be the enemy of the nobles. Now that you know everything, why don't you turn the tide with the help of a general? ”

Yun Yao took a sip of wine and was in a calm mood. Before, she watched the Spring and Autumn Period become more and more chaotic, and she was also anxious when she saw the collapse of Lile, she was also afraid of the arrival of the Warring States, afraid that the army of 100,000 and 200,000 would be scorched earth at every turn, and the souls of innocent people would be reincarnated.

However, after walking in the mortal world for a long time and seeing the failures of Confucius and the troubles of Mozi, Yun Yao understood a truth: 'Heroes make the times, and the times also create heroes'.

The human race cannot do without practice, because only through practice can the theories of the hundred schools of thought be verified. Whether it is right or wrong does not depend on oral arguments to reach the result, but after practice, the truth will be revealed.

Heroes and times are mutually beneficial.

Theory needs the soil of practice, and when practice is completed, it is recognized, and the mortal who puts forward the proposition becomes a hero. Otherwise, it will be like a lost dog like Confucius, without the soil for practice, even if the mouth is full of flowers, it will not help, it is just empty talk.

In some specific eras, the proposition of heroes is needed, as if it was a charcoal in the snow, and the proposition of heroes is like manna that quickly makes an era develop rapidly. No other proposition will work, and this proposition must be necessary in this environment and this era, and without this hero's proposition, the world will be like a backwater.

But it doesn't happen that the meeting between the proposition and the era is immediately strengthened, and it is generally that a certain era encounters countless heroes, and then one by one the propositions practice the past, until the most suitable proposition for the era is selected. There will be a lot of sacrifices in the whole process, but there is no way, according to Zhuangzi's theory, human beings have a limit to relying on external objects, so there is no way to endure hardship. Even if Yun Yao helps to choose together and reduce the time of chaos, the human beings who rely on the gods still can't go far.

Zhuangzi said that if you don't ask for God, you don't ask for people, and you don't even ask for yourself, it's best not to rely on any external force, so that you can get away with it.

Therefore, each era has its own choices, its own heroes, and the era created by heroes will also be guarded by successors.

"I once heard that Sun Gong helped Tian Gong race horses, and changed the order of the upper, middle and lower horses to help Tian Gong win the King of Qi, but is there such a thing?" Yun Yao asked.

It's not a secret, the thin Sun Bin nodded and admitted: "This is indeed the case, and it is because of this matter that I was entrusted by the King of Qi to manage the army of the Qi State. ”

"This comeback from defeat to victory, the talked-about horse race requires two conditions, one is naturally that King Qi can always pick the best horses, so Tian Gong and others race according to the rules, it is always difficult to win. Second, it is naturally Sun Gong's plan. Would this victory have come without the first condition? Could this victory have occurred without the second condition? "Using stories to tell the truth is actually because of practice, and it is difficult to convince others if you don't practice it, so it's very convincing to use stories that have already happened as arguments for practice.

Sun Bin shook his head: "If the horses of King Qi and Tian Gong are of the same quality, the competition will naturally be won and lost, then my wisdom will be nowhere to go." But if there is only the first condition, and there is no self-strategy, Tian Gong will not be able to win. So both conditions are indispensable. ”

Yun Yao nodded, and continued: "The same is true of the world now, the seven kingdoms are divided and fighting, this is the first prerequisite. And the various propositions of the hundred schools of thought will appear one by one in this era and be practiced one by one, until the one that best suits this era is selected, and finally the world is pacified. "As for what will be chosen, it is not up to you and me to decide, but by the whole world." This is also a kind of unity of knowledge and action.

Sun Bin thought of his darkest period, and what he longed for most was an opportunity, a chance to prove himself, but it did not appear in the Wei State, and it did not appear until the Qi State Horse Race. That is to say, all the sons and hundreds of schools must prove themselves through opportunities, and if they can't prove it, they will be eliminated directly. And the reason why the world is so chaotic is that people in the world don't know what they want, so everyone, every miner, and every country has their own choice.

As for whose proposition can calm the world, it is not something that is said, but something that is done.

"You're right." Sun Bin also realized that it was impossible for them to discuss the results in the restaurant, and the discussion and discussion were just standing still in the end, and if they wanted to truly solve the contradiction between the nobles and the landlords, they needed to practice. So there is no need to worry about how to promote the three-in-one proposition, if this proposition is really needed in this era, then no matter how difficult it is, there are people to learn and promote it, and there is no need to worry about not being able to promote it, and you must believe that the human race will make the right choice.
