Chapter 176: Gains and Losses
"Shenzi is heavy on surgery and light on ...... Light Law ......"
Han Fei was already a little drunk, so he simply picked up the wine bottle and began to talk intermittently.
Lu Yunzhou listened for a while, and probably understood what Han Fei meant.
Shen Buxian advocated the absolutism and dictatorship of the monarchy, concentrating power in one monarch, and implementing a centralized system of absolute monarchy, which was the same as that of Shang Ying, Wu Qi and other Legalists.
The difference is that Shang Ying, Wu Qi and other legalists advocated the implementation of the rule of law to achieve this goal, regarded the law as an effective tool for the implementation of centralized power, strengthened the rule over the vast number of peasants through the law, deprived some old nobles of their hereditary privileges, and used it as a basis for managing and supervising their subordinates, so that the state power was concentrated in the hands of the monarch.
However, Shen Bu did not harm the Fa and once said, "Those who practice the Fa will be rewarded for their merits, and they will be awarded officials because of their ability." He advocated "clarifying the law and justice" and "letting the law go without letting the wisdom go," but he did not put the law in the main position, but mainly paid attention to the technique.
The technique mentioned by Shen Buxian mainly refers to the method of appointing, supervising, and evaluating subordinates.
This "technique" is, to put it bluntly, a conspiracy power technique.
Shen Buxian advocated that the monarch should "hide from nothing", "show the world to do nothing", and "listen", "see", and "wisdom", which means that the monarch should pretend not to hear, see, or know, and not to reveal his desires, wisdom, and observation, so that his subordinates have no way to guess the king's intentions, no way to curry favor, and no way to hide their own mistakes and shortcomings, so that the monarch can hear everything, see everything, know everything, and achieve "sole vision", "sole hearing" and "arbitrary judgment".
Shen Zi said: "Those who see alone are clear, and those who listen alone are smart." Those who can make decisions can be the lord of the world. ”
To put it bluntly, Shen Bu Harm wants the monarch to use conspiracy and power to control his subordinates and rule the people, and use art as the foundation of all governance.
This technique is actually the "imperial heart technique" advocated by the rulers of all dynasties in later generations!
But governing a country and only using "imperial tricks" is obviously going to go wrong.
As the so-called upward and downward effect, the monarch can take the lead in taking the intrigue as the key to governing the country, and the subordinates can naturally follow the same example, using intrigues and tricks to fight for power and profit, the party is the same and the party is different, and cholera national politics!
Shen Zi said: "The rule is not more than the official, although he knows the words." ”
Shen Bu not only advocated that the monarch should mainly use his skills, but also demanded that officials at all levels should only do things within the scope of their powers, and should not do things beyond their duties; even if they knew about things that did not fall within the scope of their powers, they could not talk about them.
The purpose of his claim is to prevent his subordinates from usurping power, but in this way, the monarch will not be able to hear the real opinion and understand the real situation.
To put it bluntly, if you want to strengthen the country, the requirements for the monarch's personal ability are too high, once the monarch is a mediocre person, or a mediocre and incompetent person, and he still wants to govern the country only by power and scheming, then there is only one result - to be corrupted by his own ministers with the same conspiracy.
When Shen Bu was the prime minister in South Korea, the reform did achieve certain results, the internal affairs were repaired, the country became a well-off rule, and the princes did not come to invade, but unfortunately, Shen Bu Xi died not many years after the reform began.
Shen Buyan died, and it didn't take long for Korea to return to its original form, and Han Zhaohou's lack of ability was also reflected at this time, and Korea was soon captured by the Qin State again. After that, the successive monarchs were even worse than the next, and South Korea was completely reduced to the weakest country among the seven warring states, and the meaning of its existence was just to run errands as a little brother in the struggle between the major powers, or exist as a barrier between powerful countries!
In the final analysis, Shen Buxian's reform still has great limitations after all, and the effect is far inferior to the reform of Li Kui of Wei and the reform of Shang Ying of Qin. Although Shang Ying is dead, his law is not dead. Shen Bu was killed, but the fruits of his reforms disappeared.
The terrible thing is that the conspiracy and trickery indirectly caused by the reform of the law and the bad atmosphere of deception and concealment have been retained, and one generation is even worse than the next, but it has made South Korea's national government officials fall into the quagmire and cannot extricate themselves.
Although infighting exists in every country, it has become a blatant atmosphere in South Korea, which is very scary.
Han Fei said a lot, pouring wine while talking, he was already very drunk, then he suddenly stood up, lifted the wine jug, raised his neck and poured a big sip.
"Shen ...... Shen does not harm the law, does not do it, and does not ...... If you don't follow the Constitution, you will be treacherous...... Traitor...... There are many traitors!...... Therefore, Shen does not harm although ten envoys Zhaohou use...... use techniques, and traitors still have a ...... His resignation ......"
After saying this, Han Fei stood in place, shook his neck, suddenly put away his crazy posture, and his eyes became extremely clear, as if he had never been drunk.
Qi ...... Qi Yu, you know me now for ...... Why do you want to combine spells, spells, and potentials into one?"
Han Fei's bright eyes that seemed to be glowing just looked at Lu Yunzhou.
Lu Yunzhou nodded very understandingly and said, "You are here to save South Korea!"
Han Fei suddenly laughed, he threw away the dried wine jug, stumbled back to his seat, straightened his posture, and sat up.
Although Han Fei's face was still glowing red, his expression still became solemn.
"Qin uses the law of Wei Marting, the country ...... The country is rich and the army is strong, but because of "no skill to know the traitor", the achievements of the country's prosperity and strength are used by the ministers to ...... as a capital to expand its private power. All those who use Qin are ...... All should be stable and the like, and they are based on Qin's strong and prosperous numbers...... Decades without becoming an emperor...... Emperor!"
Lu Yunzhou nodded clearly, he understood what Han Fei was referring to, back then, Wei Ran, the Marquis of Qin, obtained Taoyi as a private seal when he attacked Qi and won the victory, and Fan Ju obtained Runan (Ying) as a private seal when he attacked Han Shengli.
Although Qin's law can make the country rich and strong, there is no corresponding "technique" for the emperor to know how to control his ministers, so Qin is prone to powerful ministers, stealing the country's interests and filling his own pockets.
Han Fei's remarks can also be seen that he is not blindly denying Shen Buxian's "technique", on the contrary, in terms of effectively controlling his subordinates, Han Fei actually admires Shen Buxian's "technique" very much.
Han Fei seemed to be more and more sober, and on that ordinary-looking face, a pair of extremely brilliant eyes became brighter and more elf.
"Zhaohou used Shenzi's technique, because of the law...... The decree is not uniform, and the spear before and after is ...... contradictions, still make treacherous ...... The traitor has a chance, because ...... Therefore, Shenzi ruled for seventeen years without ...... Not to dominate ...... Overlord!"
Speaking of this, Han Fei suddenly smiled, smiling very confidently, he patted his chest, held his head high, and said loudly: "Spell, technique, and potential...... The three factions have their own gains and losses! So I admit it...... It is believed that it is necessary to adopt the long-term ...... of the three factions strengths, in order to triumphantly finish...... Complete the unification of the Emperor's Cause!"
After Han Fei finished speaking, he just smiled and fell straight down, and after a while, the snoring sounded, obviously he was already asleep.
Lu Yunzhou was stunned, he knew at this time that although Han Fei wanted to save his own country and help his father, who didn't like him, in fact, how could a Legalist genius like him, who had no predecessors and no future generations, not have the ambition to assist Ming Jun and unify the world?"
Seeing Han Fei fall asleep on the ground in embarrassment, Lu Yunzhou sighed, he felt worthless because of Han Fei's background.
The prince of South Korea seems to be a noble identity, but it is also a burden that binds Han Fei's life.
If he is like Li Si, just an ordinary nobleman in Korea, I am afraid that he would have decisively left the mud pit of Korea with no hope like Li Si gave up the Chu State, and went to the Qin State where he could truly display his grand ambitions!
The wine was drunk by Han Fei, Lu Yunzhou was not drunk at all at the moment, he shook his head helplessly, got up and walked to the side of Han Fei, who was drunk, picked him up from the ground, and walked towards the bedroom.
Lu Yunzhou put Han Fei on his bed, covered him with a quilt, and looked at Han Fei still muttering in his sleep, and couldn't help but be silent.
Thinking of history, Han Fei's political theories were basically adopted by Qin Shi Huang and Li Si to unify the world. And Han Fei, who made great contributions to the Qin State, was framed and died tragically in a foreign land early because of the jealousy of his fellow Li Si, unable to witness his theoretical achievements and the huge empire he created.
Han Fei, what is needed is a monarch who absolutely trusts him. In Korea, it is a waste of his superior talent, and in Qin, it is an insult to his noble character!
After a long time, Lu Yunzhou said softly: "Brother Han, an amazing talent like you is too wasteful in South Korea, your father will not listen to your contrary advice, it is better to ...... Come help me!"
