Chapter 438 The Soul of the Empire

When Li Si left, a young man in the "twilight" walked out from behind the screen behind Xunkui.

"What? Now I don't even want to see my junior brother?" Xunqiu joked to the man.

"The teacher's jokes are untenable. Do I not want to see my junior brother? I just don't want to embarrass him." Han Fei, who is over thirty years old, smiled bitterly.

"Unbeat?" Xun Kuang said in discomfortably.

"Yes, embarrassing. Junior brother did something wrong. Teacher, you can point it out. This is not a shame for him, but if I, the senior brother, see it, it would be another matter.

” Han Fei explained.

"Can you consider other people's feelings now?" Xunzi smiled with relief.

Han Fei's poisonous tongue was once deeply understood by Xunzi. Some people think that these are not human nature, but for them, they just don't care.

But now, the once willfulness has disappeared from Han Fei, which makes Xunqiu unable to help but see himself back then.

I was like this back then. I was arbitrary when I was young and abide by my duties in middle age. I only returned to my natural state and did not go beyond the rules until I was old.

"People always have to grow up. I am now in my thirties. Why should teachers look at me with old eyes?" Han Fei said.

"I am only in my thirties." Xunqiu said without hesitation.

"Have you thought about it?" Xunqiu said, and the smile on his face stopped, revealing a serious look that only appears in the court.

"I have thought about it, I can resign as the position of Tingwei." Han Fei said.

Not long ago, Xunqiu found Han Fei and asked the Tingwei to resign from his position and work in another job with peace of mind.

"You will not regret your current choice in the future." Xunzi said.

"Teacher, although I have made up my mind to resign from my official position and concentrate on compiling Qin laws and Qin laws, I still have this doubt in my heart." Han Fei said.

"What doubts?" Xun Quan asked.

"Why don't the teacher take charge of the Qin law and Qin law, why do you want me to do it yourself? Although I am confident, I am not as confident as I think I can surpass you, teacher." Han Fei said.

"Because I have my own things to do." Xun Zi said.

"Is there anything more important than editing Qin law and Qin law?" Han Fei said curiously.

"Of course there are." Xun Zi said, "In the current Qin State, although the status of law and law is still the same, the six tribes of Yan Emperor have a tendency to come from behind. Apart from the six tribes of Yan Emperor Emperor, why can't there be anything that can compare with law and law, except for the six tribes of Yan Emperor Emperor, why can't there be anything that can compare with law and law?

What's going on?" Xunzi asked back.

"Teacher, you are changing your concepts. I admit that the six Yan Emperors' tribes are now becoming more and more important in Qin, but they are different from the Legalists' sayings and have their own missions." Han Fei said.

"The six tribes of Yan Emperor, the Mo family, the Gongshu, and the medical school can satisfy the people materially, but what else?" Xun Zi said.

"Spirit?" Han Fei thought and realized something in his heart.

"Yes, spirit. His Majesty the Emperor invited all the people from all walks of life to gather in Xianyang, for this reason." Xun Zi said.

"For a hundred years, Qin State has established a country through farming and war, governing the country with law and governing the people. This is the root cause of Qin State's ability to be powerful, but now the situation has changed." Xun Zi said.

"It's true." Han Fei nodded.

"There is still no problem in governing the country by law, but it is not the case in governing the people by law." Xunzi explained.

"Is there any problem with the rule of law?" Han Fei asked in confusion. He had realized that the problem the teacher mentioned at this time might be the only thing the teacher and himself did in his future life.

.

"If you have any problems, rule of law in troubled times can be used to restrain the people, stabilize the situation of a country, and thus use the power of the whole country to one place, but that is in troubled times, as it is now unified and is heading towards

The construction of the empire direction will continue at this time. Do you think there will be no problem? If you think there is no problem, you might as well imagine what will happen in fifty years if you continue to implement the current law?"

Xunzi Tao.

"Fifty years later?" Han Fei thought, and his mind quickly started to move.

He thought of the current laws. After hundreds of years of development, the complexity and detail of the laws can be said to have reached a peak.

It covers almost all aspects of the country, from princes and nobles to the common people, every aspect of their lives is extremely strict.

If everything had not changed, what would the people in fifty years turn into? Han Fei thought about it and couldn't help but take a breath of air conditioning.

Because Han Fei thought of a concept that occupied an absolute position among the three Legalists: fooling the people.

If nothing has changed, under the strict control of the Legalists on all aspects of the country and society, the wisdom of the people will decline rapidly.

This is true of the pursuit of the Legalists, because only the people who lose the ability to think independently can be more easily ruled.

Is this wrong? Han Fei hesitated.

"You are proficient in the theory of the three Legalists, and you should be familiar with the pursuit of the three Legalists, right?" Xun Qiong said.

"Disciple naturally knows, but is that wrong?" Han Fei hesitated. At this time, he had a little doubt about the perception that had already formed in his heart.

"From the standpoint of a country with one surname, such means are naturally excellent. After all, this is more conducive to rule and the inheritance of family power." Xun Zi said.

"But the current position of His Majesty the Emperor and the teacher must not be the position of a country of one surname." Han Fei said. From the teacher's words, he could not hear another meaning.

"Yes, ruling the world with such a method can certainly maintain the stability of the rule, but at the cost, the whole world is indeed developing slowly or even stagnant. Such a world is not the world that His Majesty the Emperor hopes to see." Xun Zi said

.

"What will His Majesty the Emperor do?" Han Fei asked.

"Governing the country according to law naturally cannot change, but governing the people according to law requires adjustments. The people cannot be bound by laws only, but also use education to open up their wisdom. Wisdom and people's wisdom have been developed, and this country and the world can achieve progress." Xun Xun

Not to mention.

"Your Majesty the Emperor is not worried. Will it endanger your rule when everyone becomes a dragon?" Han Fei asked back.

"If the price of rule is a country and a world stagnation, do you think His Majesty the Emperor will like such rule?" Xun Qiong asked.

"Okay, I admit that I use my own knowledge to try to understand His Majesty the Emperor's actions, so the teacher gave me the law, and I have to use all my energy to open up the wisdom of the people.

Is it something?" Han Fei said.

"That is, law and people's wisdom are spiritual pillars for the empire that are still under construction, and there is no need tolerate any mistakes." Xun Zi said.

"Can you still stick to your choice now?" Xun Quan asked.

"Of course I am willing to do so. I really can't find a reason to refuse such a grand plan that can change the world. It is really too tempting." Han Fei said.

"Now you forgot to be careful?" Xun Zi teased.
