I seek economic hegemony in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 163 Xunzi Wei Qi Feiqi

Qiao Zhou sneered on the side, while Runan pretended to be watching a good show.

These people are all great scholars in Shu and have read many books.

Li Heng was young and was just the son of an imperial doctor. They believed that Li Heng was no match for them in debate.

They brought the topic to this aspect just to use their own strengths to attack Li Heng's weaknesses.

Li Heng was not only the Minister of Taifu Temple, the Minister of Shaofu, but also the Minister of Dali.

What Xunzi said is exactly Legalism, which is completely consistent with the duties of Dali Qing.

"Xunzi said: The king's laws are clear, the rules are consistent, and the people know how to behave. There are rules for advancing and retreating, and there is no need to be noble or humble. Who is a private king?"

After saying that, Li Heng stared at Yin Mo and sneered: "Come on, Doctor Yin, tell me what the hell means to be disciplined in advance and retreat, don't be noble or humble!"

Yin Mo's face was slightly startled, and then he said: "What I'm talking to you about is that the former king hated his chaos and established etiquette and righteousness to divide the world. This is the great road of the world. You and I are talking about the rules of advance and retreat, and don't be noble or inferior!"

Yin Mo laughed.

"I would like to ask, which one is more important, the way of the world or the way of advance and retreat, which is more important?"

"Then Doctor Yin comes to answer me again. Xunzi said, if all the officials fear the law and follow the rope, then the country will not be in chaos. What does this mean?"

Yin Mo snorted and didn't answer, but he was surprised in his heart, this kid actually read Xunzi?
  Qiao Zhou on the side was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that Li Heng also knew something about Xunzi.

But I guess I only know a little bit about it.

People like Qiao Zhou knew very well that it would take more than simple means to bring down Li Heng.

To be precise, Chang Chao was indeed instigated by those people in private.

It cannot be said to be instigation, it can only be said to have expressed some opinions. As for the rest, it depends on the understanding of these young people.

All these young people have family backgrounds, and even the most inferior families are well-known in the local area.

They will all have the opportunity to become officials in the future.

Of course, these people are all from Yizhou, not Jingzhou.

To be more precise, Qiao Zhou and Yin Mo did not expect that Li Heng would dare to arrest everyone.

It would be better to catch him. This matter is going to cause the biggest trouble.

They didn't believe that Li Heng had offended so many people today, could he just let it go?

I'm afraid that if the incident spreads to Guanzhong, Zhuge Liang may not be able to withstand it.

Of course, political struggle is not that simple.

Especially the political struggle in the court requires a justifiable word.

Only when the name is justified can all parties be convinced.

It is very important for all parties to be convinced. If someone is not convinced, Zhuge Liang will use these forces to keep Li Heng.

Therefore, Yin Mo moved out Xunzi and the words of sages.

He planned to rebuke Li Heng speechlessly in front of everyone in the court.

This is called killing and killing one's heart.

However, now I am a little surprised to find that Li Heng also reads Xunzi.

The difficulty of this debate has obviously increased a little bit.

While Yin Mo was thinking, Li Heng's voice came again: "Doctor Yin, why don't you answer what I said?"

Yin Mo said, "There is heaven and earth, but there is a difference between the upper and lower. The Ming Dynasty was established, but the state was under the system. The noble husband and the noble cannot get along with each other, and the humble husband cannot interact with each other. This is the destiny."

Qiao Zhou immediately said: "Li Shangshu also read Xunzi. Haven't you heard that when the power and position are equal, but the desires and dislikes are the same, if things cannot be settled, they will fight; fighting will lead to chaos, and chaos will lead to poverty."

Li Heng finally saw that these people were not here to convince others with reason today.     If you are here to convince people with reason, why don't you answer the question directly?

At the beginning, Yin Mo said: The previous kings hated the chaos, so they divided etiquette and righteousness so that there would be rich and poor, noble and humble, so that they could meet each other. This is the foundation of nourishing the world.

This is the core of Xunzi’s theory of Wei Qi and Feiqi.

What Yin Mo and Qiao Zhou said just now were all part of Wei Qi Fei Qi Lun.

The general meaning is that in this world, there are differences between heaven and earth, upper and lower, and the same is true for people. The sage monarch governs the world and uses systems to distinguish the high and low of people.

People of the same nobility cannot serve each other, and people of the same lowliness cannot enslave each other.

This is the way of heaven and earth.

Being born between heaven and earth naturally coincides with the great road of heaven and earth.

Yin Mo used Xunzi's words to criticize today's matter. The core of it is still what Qiao Zhou said: "If the power and position are equal, but the desires and dislikes are the same, if things cannot be settled, they will fight; fighting will lead to chaos, and chaos will lead to poverty."

The meaning of this sentence is that if people have equal power and status, and their likes and dislikes are the same, then because the property cannot meet the needs, there will definitely be competition.

Once there is competition, there will be chaos, the country will fall into chaos, and there will be the danger of national subjugation.

The core meaning is that those craftsmen and farmers switch to forging iron and farming the land that should be cultivated.

Don't mess!
  If there is chaos, the country will be destroyed!
  Take a look! Look what Li Heng has done!
  You actually let them come to study?
  May I ask if this is not an act of subjugation to the country? What is it?
  Li Heng couldn't help but applaud: "Okay, okay, well said. Qiao Zhizhi and Dr. Yin kept talking about it, but when I talked about Xunzi's legal theory, he avoided answering. What's the matter? Xunzi just said Only said a few words?"

"I don't even bother to answer your question!"

"Doctor Yin still hasn't answered yet. All the officials are afraid of the law and follow the ropes, and then the country will not be in chaos. What does this mean?"

"There is also what I mentioned before. Xunzi said that the king's laws are clear, the rules are consistent, and the people know how to behave. There are rules for advancement and retreat, and there is no distinction between high and low. Who is a private king? What does this mean?"

"Li Shangshu, please answer our questions directly! Mr. Xunzi..."

"I have answered your questions directly! In this world, there are heaven and earth, mountains and seas, prime ministers and farmers, good people and evil people! But it is not your turn to decide who is the prime minister and who is the farmer! "

Li Heng's face suddenly changed, and his voice suddenly increased: "The king's law is clear, the rules are regular, and the people know how to behave. There are rules for advancing and retreating, and there is no need to be noble or humble. Who is a private king? What does this mean? Doctor Yin still needs Can I explain it to you?"

Yin Mo's expression suddenly changed.

Xunzi's theory of Wei Qi Fei Qi was a very advanced theory in ancient times.

Yin Mo and Qiao Zhou intercepted Xunzi's theory and tried to draw the focus to Li Heng to establish a new school. This was a mistake and a disaster for the country.

But this is obviously taken out of context.

Seeing that Yin Mo didn't say anything, Li Heng said, "Your Majesty, does he know what this sentence means?"

Liu Chan immediately said: "The monarch's laws are very strict, his speech is legal and certain, the rules and regulations have been established, and the people understand the direction. There are standards for appointing and removing officials, and the rank and rank cannot be determined arbitrarily. Who would please the king in private?"

Li Heng immediately said: "Your Majesty is wise!"

When these words came out of Liu Chan's mouth, their power was completely different.

The core point of view is: No matter what is high or what is low, it cannot be determined arbitrarily!

Xunzi advocated the need for hierarchy, but he also said that hierarchy should not be determined arbitrarily!
  Yin Mo suddenly broke out in cold sweat on his forehead.

Qiao Zhou on the side also looked condensed.

Yin Mo angrily scolded: "Li Heng! You are cruel and easy to kill. You violate the holy virtues and make the people of the world dare to be angry and dare not speak out! In the past, the holy kings ruled the world with virtue, and the four sides respected each other. The country was safe and the people were happy. This is the king's way. ! Your Capital University..."

"Yin Mo! You are an old minister of the late emperor!" Before Yin Mo could finish speaking, Li Heng interrupted him and called him by his first name, "But you are ignorant and have no skills. All you do is wag your lips and stick your tongue, and break your spine. A dog dares to bark in the emperor's court! What shame do you have to go see the late emperor!"

Yin Mo's face rose, and he pointed at Li Heng and was about to curse: "You..."

"Shut up!" Li Heng shouted.
