Chapter 507: Chen Ping: Jing Ke, my dagger is better than yours? I've sent you

The second emperor's voice fell for a long time, but there was still silence in the field, and everyone looked thoughtful.

From Yu Xia to the Warring States, there has never been a country whose laws are for fairness and justice, and no king or prince has designated laws from the perspective of the people.

The existence of the law itself is to maintain the rule of the superiors, and this is true of the three schools of Legalism, law, art, and power.

"Hearing His Majesty's words, the old man can take a look."

Xunzi said with relief.

Among his disciples, there are many accomplished people, but none of them are Confucian inheritances.

The knowledge of saving the world has become a legalist doctrine for maintaining rule in the ears of Han Fei and Li Si, and in the ears of Zhang Cang and Lu Jia, it has become a desire for longevity and debate.

Xunzi did not criticize his disciples, he even encouraged his disciples to have their own opinions, and the disciples did not have to be inferior to the teacher.

But deep down, he inevitably has a little regret, where are his heirs, who can walk on the same path with him?

It wasn't until that young man trekked through mountains and rivers, since Qin Xiangqi, and visited the school palace three times to invite him and sit down with him to discuss the road, that he got rid of this regret.

It's just that so many years have passed, Xunzi is still Xunzi, and that young man has transformed into the emperor of Qin, and his status is not the same.

The heart of the second emperor is still not the heart of that young man, Xunzi's heart can't fall to the end.

Now it seems that he is still the same boy he used to be.

The second emperor lowered his head and made a sincere request for advice.

People have two eyes, Xunzi can only close one, what about the other? There will be a teach!

Xunzi claims to be a descendant of Confucianism, and in fact, all the sons of the hundred schools are refined, and he is the only one in the world who is favored by Guiguzi.

On his deathbed, the most important teaching, how could Ying Chengcheng not listen carefully.

He is often untargeted, but Xunzi never says empty words without a beginning or an end.

"Your Majesty said what the old man thought in his heart, the Confucian thoughts. In this case, why not follow the "Qin Law" to announce Chen Ping's guilt and deal with it publicly? ”

Ying Cheng was silent.

How can this be disposed of publicly? It was his own brother who ordered the slaughter of the city.

The conspirators of the Yi three clans, what about the first emperor who personally ordered it?

It is definitely impossible for the three tribes of Yi, but to accuse the "deceased" first emperor, Ying Chengcheng is also unwilling.

He has always been a selfish man, and he never denies it.

"It's the relationship between the first king."

Xunzi was no longer embarrassed for the second emperor, and asked himself again to answer himself.

"Publicly announcing that Chen Ping is guilty of killing Chen Ping means that the order given by the former king to Tu Lanling is wrong, and His Majesty is unwilling to add a single flaw to the reputation of the former king, even if this reputation is his own defeat."

Ying Cheng's face was ashamed, but he didn't pretend to be deaf and dumb anymore, but said calmly:

"In the past, in order to avenge his father, Wu Zixu dug up the body of King Chuping and whipped the corpse to vent his anger after attacking the Chu State. Xunzi is a great Confucian, and he can't do such a thing as whipping people to death. But the elder brother has it, and the younger brother receives it, and he can be whipped. I know that no matter how much I am whipped, I can't make the people of the two cities in Lanling County look at me, and I can't pay this blood debt. But if I want to discredit the first king, I will never allow it, and I can only disappoint Xunzi. ”

"The old man is not disappointed, relatives are hidden, human nature, what is there to be disappointed?"

Xunzi pointed to Chen Ping, who was lying on the ground and gave up struggling.

What Qing means is that if the trial is open, it is necessary to punish him severely. The purpose of imposing capital punishment is to let the people of Qianshou know the price of doing so, and to make the people take this as a warning, fear in their hearts, and form a wind of justice. But now that there is no public trial, why did His Majesty torture him? Is it to repay grievances? Has Your Majesty ever thought that you were right to let the reckless man torture Chen Ping? ”

Ying Chengcheng never expected that Xunzi was entangled in this matter, so he smiled and hugged his fists.

"I have heard a truth, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, the wicked still need the wicked to grind. The most cruel means should be used to deal with such wicked people. My ideological realm is not as high as Xun Zi's, and I think my actions are no more correct. I even thought that the punishment was too light for him! I still can't understand the hatred! ”

In an instant, everyone immediately looked at the second emperor much more pleasing to the eyes, and the appearance of gritting teeth was the same as when they were angry.

The second emperor who stepped down from the high platform changed completely, removing the emperor's high position and adding the seven emotions and six desires of mortals.

That's right, this thief deserves such torture!

If it weren't for Xun Zi's short life, Zhang Cang, Lu Jia, Han Fei and other disciples would have to clap their hands and cheer a colorful word.

Xunzi didn't need to look back, and he knew what the psychology of the disciples behind him was.

Confucianism does not forgive.

The teaching of Master Confucius, who was able to lift the city gate, was that it was not possible to share a piece of sky with an enemy who had a great enemy, and that he would sleep with a shield and a weapon on his pillow every day, and that he would be killed when he met!

"So, Your Majesty is doing this for your own desires, isn't it?"

Ying Chengcheng nodded casually, in fact, he thought in his heart that he was doing the right thing for heaven and avenging the people of the two cities who died in Lanling County.

But there was no need to say this, he didn't want the old man to walk the last part of the road in the debate, and he wouldn't die if he said two words along the way.

You can't be competitive, but you can't be too strong.

If there is none, it will be salted fish, and if it is more, it will hurt itself.

"These are the eyes that Qing can't close. His Majesty hated Chen Ping's cruel methods, but he also used cruel methods for his own desires. Qing thought it was inappropriate, and it was very inappropriate. I remember that His Majesty wrote one of the books called "Chu Liuxiang", and His Majesty gave Chu Liuxiang a nice name for stealing money from the rich and giving it to the poor people. Stealing violates the "Law of Qin", if there is really such a Chu Liuxiang in the territory of Qin, will Your Majesty arrest it or not? ”

Ying Cheng was puzzled:

"This question was already told to Mr. when he watched "Chu Liuxiang". Chu Liuxiang is a literary creation, and it cannot be reproduced in reality. Theft is theft, and justice is not taken over by the usefulness of property. There is only one situation, I will applaud Chu Liuxiang's case, and the world is unfair. The rich do whatever it takes to squeeze the people to accumulate wealth, and the officials are complicit in favoring one side. The head of the Qianqian has nowhere to shout, and he cannot get the most basic fairness. If the law is not fair, there will be no prestige, there will be no need to abide by it, and it is time to unite and smash the way of the world of this dog's day, and dare to change the sun and the moon for a new day. ”

Han Fei listened quietly, without any expression, he had heard a lot of this kind of remarks when he was in Chang'an Junfu.

But Zhang Cang, Lu Jia, Mao Heng and others were wide-eyed, and the fact that the teacher was about to die couldn't cover the violent mood swings at this time.

They had never seen such a ruler.

You are the emperor, you should stand in the position of the superior, how can you say such a thing? How can you be more anti-thief than a thief?

Xunzi's mind was even more dizzy, his time was running out, but the smile on his face increased.

Only such an emperor, an emperor who stands on the side of the people, can realize the vision in his heart, and let the prosperous era he imagined really come.

The young have something to rely on, and the old have something to support.

The people are not afraid of officials, and thieves cannot appear under the blue sky and white sun!

The second emperor is only a little short of the most perfect emperor candidate in Xunzi's heart.

He had to make up for that last point.

"In addition to the difference in identity, what is the difference between what Your Majesty is doing now and Chu Liuxiang's robbery of the rich and helping the poor? Cruel methods, no matter who is in their hands, should not appear. His Majesty once said to the old man, when you are staring into the abyss, the abyss is also staring at you. No matter how much you hate sin in your heart, don't be sin itself. ”

Xunzi smiled and turned his head to look at the river heading east.

"Your Majesty has seen farther than us, Wang Xu once said that this is the limitation of the times, and even he is not exempt from vulgarity. The etiquette of running away and not chasing on the Spring and Autumn battlefield is a joke now. Today's people can't understand the stupidity of the ancients, and I hope that what Qing says now, His Majesty won't feel stupid. The words of death became a joke, and Qing really couldn't look at it. ”

Ying Cheng took two steps forward and stood quietly beside Xunzi.

His thoughts followed the waters of the Wei River and returned to his previous life.

After 2,000 years, should we treat evil with evil? So what does the law do?

If the law does not punish evil, then the law loses its meaning of existence.

But if the law can punish evil, then it should not use evil means to deal with evil.

The large-scale armed fight between Jing Lan and Ma Tian, and the coordinated operation of infantry artillery, led to a complete ban on guns. If what Xunzi said is not right, then you should sit and watch the two villages fight to the death.

Two thousand years later, Xunzi is not wrong.

Ying Cheng rubbed his eyes blinded by desire, and when he put his hand down, he felt much clearer.

He raised his head and shouted softly at Jing Ke in the distance:

"Give him a treat."

Jing Ke replied, squatting down, the dagger jumping on his fingertips.

He looked at Chen Ping, whose face was pale, with more breath and less breath, and sighed with a little admiration.

"I didn't say a word begging for mercy when I was dying, it's a man, I want you to be a ghost who understands, just ask."

The look of doubt in Chen Ping's eyes couldn't hide it from him at all.

Chen Ping supported the ground with both hands, struggled to get up, and knelt on all fours on the frozen ground, like a down-and-out dog.

"Why did King Qin kill me?"

"Because you slaughtered Lanling County, twice."

"Impossible!"

Chen Ping raised his head and shouted at the Second Emperor, seeing that the Second Emperor's eyes did not fall to this side, he moved to Jing Ke's face in despair.

"How could King Qin care about those untouchables!"

All the superiors he had seen, whether it was the three brothers of the Tian family, Zhang Liang of the Zhang family, Zhang Er, Chen Yu Erxian, or Wei Wangbao, no one cared about the lives of the people.

How could the King of Qin, who was more noble than everyone else, kill him, a sage who had already proven his ability, for the sake of the lives of those untouchables?

"Your Majesty doesn't like to hear the word untouchable, all industries and people in the world should not have cheap words before, including businessmen."

Jing Ke stated quietly.

According to Chen Ping, he Jing Ke is a pariah, and the merchant LΓΌ Buwei is a pariah.

Chang'an Junfu, there are no nobles!

"I don't believe it, I don't believe it! How can there be such a king under heaven! ”

Chen Ping shook his head frantically, his swollen face was full of crazy looks, King Qin must have killed him for a reason, not because of a bullshit pariah!

With a force that came from nowhere, he pounced on Jing Ke, grabbed Jing Ke's clothes, and asked loudly:

"You are strong in martial arts, you can obviously arrest me back to Xianyang, why do you show up outside the beam, report to your home, and say that the King of Qin invited me to Xianyang! Don't say you like it, you're the number one assassin in the world! If you can't make sense, it proves that either on my way here, or during my time in prison, something unfavorable to me happened, and King Qin gave up on me! Did the King of Wei say I was unfaithful? This is a counter-plot, it is the king of Wei who wants to kill me first, and I rebel last! ”

Jing Ke, who let Chen Ping go crazy, showed pity in his eyes, do smart people like brain supplements so much?

"Your imagination is rich, and I admire you. The reason why I appeared to see you and said that Your Majesty invited you to Xianyang was all ordered by Your Majesty. Your Majesty said that you have a very high IQ, if you are forcibly taken, with your ability, there will be any changes along the way, and I may not be able to see you. But as long as it is said that His Majesty invited you to come, there will be no surprise. With your heart, you will happily throw yourself into the net, and Your Majesty says that this is called being clever but being mistaken by being wise. I really don't understand, how dare you come to see Your Majesty when you murdered the people of Lanling and Liangcheng? For a person like you, Your Majesty invites you to come, but you can only ask you to die. ”

Chen Ping opened his mouth wide, let go of his hand, and sat on the ground with his buttocks, his face full of dead ashes.

Although what Jing Ke said was very winding, he understood, and he underestimated King Qin.

First, he used a plan to ask the First Emperor to slaughter the city, or twice, and used the First Emperor as a marionette.

Get along with Wei Wangbao every day after tomorrow and play Wei Wangbao in the palm of his hand.

After two experiences, he unconsciously had a contempt for the new King of Qin, thinking that all kings were nothing more than that.

He raised his head and looked at the second emperor, who had never said a word to him from beginning to end.

What wants him to lose his soul is not the wisdom of King Qin, but the heart of King Qin, how can there be a king in the world who does not regard the people as cheap?

The wind was howling, blowing sand into Chen Ping's eyes.

He raised his hand and rubbed it vigorously! Rub it hard!

When his vision was chaotic, the face of his father that he thought he had forgotten long ago appeared in his mind.

The father, who faced the loess with his back to the sky and worked hard to cultivate the land to feed him, lost that piece of land.

It is useless to report to the official, and power has always only helped the powerful.

In the end, for that land, he died under power, silently.

If a big living person dies, it is better to kill a pig in the village.

He twitched his nose and choked in his throat.

If it was King Qin who was in charge at the beginning, would his father not die, would he be able to come back, would his mother not be remarried.

Isn't it, he won't kill pigs and divide the meat, and finally kill the whole village as pigs, becoming Chen Ping, who is full of untouchables......

Tears flowed down the filth of his face, mixed with blood.

Jing Ke looked stunned.

Chen Ping, who was tortured by him in every way and did not accept relenting, how could he be cried by a few words?

Is it because you don't want to die, so you shed tears of regret?

"It's useless for you to cry, you will die if you cry, being a ghost on the road is my last preferential treatment for you."

Chen Ping put down his hand, his eyes were red and swollen, he looked at the second emperor, and shouted hoarsely:

"Regret was not born at this time, not under the rule of His Majesty."

Stretched out his hand, entered his arms, and took out the dagger that killed everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion of Daliang, and inserted himself into his heart.

Pulling it out, the blood in his chest gushed like a spring, and the dagger did not drop blood.

Chen Ping smiled.

"Jing Ke, my dagger is better than yours, isn't it? I've sent you. ”

He handed out the dagger and fell to the ground, dejected.
