On stage.
Xia Tian has been quietly watching the progress of the situation outside the square.
This is a test for Zang Sansan, the chief intelligence officer in Huangzhou.
As a result, he was very satisfied!
Huangzhou is very big and there are a lot of people now. If Hidden Thirty-Three is not strong enough, Huangzhou will be like a sieve riddled with holes!
Now it seems that there is still a dragnet in the wilderness, which is very good!
Hidden thirty-three, you will be rewarded heavily!
suddenly.
There was a sound transmission in his ear.
Xia Tian glanced behind the stage and said nothing!
Everything has been arranged long ago!
Everything is under control.
He smiled faintly and continued: "Everyone, there was some incident just now, and the Huangzhou Army has already dealt with it!"
"Now, let's continue today's event!"
"The heads of each school, do you have anything else you want to say?"
For a time, no one from any school said anything.
finally.
Li Si stood up and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, how about you pick a school of thought and talk about it?"
"We really want to know the prince's views on various schools of thought!"
"Of course, if the prince puts the hundreds of schools of thought on the stage and talks about them in detail, the prince's throat may smoke, and the hundred strong men in the audience will probably deafen the ears of everyone here.
"Hahaha......"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh knowingly, making the scene a little more relaxed!
"Please tell me, Your Majesty!"
The leaders of all schools of thought requested Dao!
Xia Tian smiled gently: "Okay!"
He was still modest: "Actually, my understanding of various schools of thought is limited, so let's just talk superficially!"
"please!"
The heads and disciples of each school of thought are listening in unison!
I saw Xia Xia seriously bowing to the void and saying: "First of all, I, across time and space, bow to the weird master of the past, because he founded Jixia Academy, which allowed this continent to have hundreds of schools of thought. He Your achievements deserve my respect!"
Xia Tian's gift has gained the respect of hundreds of schools of thought!
Because Master Weird is the common ancestor of all schools of thought!
After Xia Tian finished this salute, he put his hands behind his back, looked at the sun in the sky and said: "If you want to choose a school of thought, then I will say Dharma!"
The head of the Legalist School said respectfully: "Your Majesty, it doesn't matter if you say so!"
At this time, the heads of the various schools of thought brightened up!
Why did the King of Huangzhou choose the miserable Legalists to speak about?
Their ears pricked up!
The eunuchs and everyone in the novel school in the audience also pricked up their ears!
In fact, in Chinese time and space, Legalism was the school that truly studied the way of national governance, and put forward the idea of enriching the country and strengthening its military, and ruling the country by law.
The "Book of Han·Yiwenzhi" in Chinese Time and Space lists Legalism as one of the "Nine Streams".
Xia Tian said seriously: "When I was studying in the Imperial Study Room, I read the legalist theories and admired them very much!"
"Legalists say that there is no distinction between closeness and distance, no distinction between high and low, and one is cut off from the law."
"I highly agree!"
"Think back on the former Qin Dynasty's heavy use of legalism to govern the country, which turned the former Qin from a weak country among the nine kingdoms into a strong one. It finally unified the nine kingdoms, reunited the Central Plains, and turned it into a powerful Qin Empire on this continent. !”
"But later, the former Qin Dynasty, under pressure from the nobles, persecuted Ji Jiuzhou, the head of the Legalist family. I also have deep sympathy for this matter!"
As for the fact that Ji Jiuzhou was once the governor of Huangzhou, Xia Tian was going to bury this secret on the plains of Huangzhou.
at this time.
All schools of thought were shocked!
This is a reversal of the verdict for the Legalists!
These words rectify the name of Legalism!
History books say that Ji Jiuzhou, the head of the Legalist family, knew the law and broke the law and was killed.
But now, the King of Huangzhou says that the nobles of the former Qin Dynasty were wrong!
These words will definitely remain in the history books.
For Legalists, this is a great blessing!
However, in this continent today, the person who is most qualified to evaluate the affairs of the former Qin Dynasty, apart from the Xia Emperor Xia Zhou who usurped the Qin Dynasty, is the King of Huangzhou who has the blood of the Qin Dynasty on the stage!
The head of the Legalist School and all the Legalist disciples bowed to Xia Tian in a moved manner: "Your Majesty, Legalists have always believed that only by governing a country according to law can we govern the country well. Our original intention has never changed!"
"But the reality is that even if you get the approval of the emperor of a country, you will encounter opposition and obstruction from powerful families, aristocratic families, and powerful people when implementing the rule of law. Even if you can suppress it temporarily with the help of imperial power, the more fierce the suppression, the more violent the suppression will be. The rebound will be stronger in the future!”
"My former head of the Legal family, Ji Jiuzhou, is a living example!"
"Looking at the Legalists from the Warring States Period to the present, there are no reformers who can end well!"
"This seems to be a death curse that has been following my Legal family!"
"This is more like a death rein that has been tied around the neck of the Legalists, making it impossible for us to breathe!"
"If this continues, our Legal family will definitely become extinct because of the decline of talents and the loss of inheritance!"
Having said this, the head of the Legalist family felt helpless on his face, bowed seriously with tears in his eyes and said, "Please teach me, Your Majesty, how to do Legalism?"
"What can be done to break this curse?"
"What can I do to untie this death rein from around my neck?"
The misery of Legalism is known to everyone in the world.
But, there is really no solution!
They looked at Xia Tian, their eyes full of doubts... Can the King of Huangzhou solve this death situation?
At this time, Xia Tian said seriously: "Since this continent has territory, there have been powerful people. This status quo cannot be changed by your Legal family."
"You Legalists do not distinguish between relatives and friends, nor do they distinguish between high and low. It sounds okay to just stick to the law, but during the implementation process, it will inevitably conflict with the imperial power and aristocratic power. This is inevitable!"
"History has proven that in the conflict between imperial power, aristocratic power and the rule of law, you, the Legalists, lost!"
"Therefore, if Legalism encounters a situation that conflicts with imperial power and aristocratic power, it must assess the situation and learn to adapt."
"One of the modifications is that according to the characteristics of imperial power, the law must have the word "extra-legal mercy"!
"The second variation is that according to the characteristics of aristocratic power, the law must have the word extrajudicial tolerance!"
“In this way, irreconcilable conflicts can be turned into reconciled conflicts!”
The leader of the Legalist school suddenly realized!
However, he still frowned: "Your Majesty, is such a method still awe-inspiring?"
"Can such a law still govern a weak country into a strong one?"
Xia Tian smiled!
"Didn't you Legalists witness the former Qin Dynasty's transformation from weakness to strength?"
"Although the former Qin Dynasty was not your Legalist ideal country, it at least had seven images, wasn't it?"
"In this way, your Fa family will not be cursed by bad luck, and the reins around your neck will be untied!"
"Isn't it?"
The eyes of the head of the Legal family and the disciples were bright, as if they were enlightened and suddenly realized!
Their eyes shone, they stood up and saluted like peacocks: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for clearing up the confusion!"
"No need to be polite!"
Xia Tian looked into the eyes of the head of the Legal family and said: "Actually, I am not here to help you solve your legal problems!"
He said sonorously and forcefully: "But I believe that to govern the country, we should govern the country according to the law!"
Suddenly, the whole audience was shocked!
The head of the Legal family was so shocked that he was dumbfounded: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, what did you say?"
Xia Tian's face was extremely serious: "This is my king's point of view!"
"To govern a country, you must govern it according to the law to make the country a strong one!"
The head of the Legalist School was sure that he heard correctly: "Your Majesty, in today's Great Xia Empire, Confucian etiquette and laws are the main way to govern the country, and the laws formulated by the Legalists are supplemented to govern the country!"
Of course Xia Tian knows!
He smiled and invited: "Head of the Legal family, Huangzhou is rebuilt. Except for this king, there are no aristocratic families, powerful families, or powerful people. If the Legalists want to realize their ideals, Huangzhou is the ideal place for the Legalists to establish their sect!"
Suddenly.
The eyes of the Legalist disciples sparkled with light!
Is the King of Huangzhou inviting them to stay and govern Huangzhou?
Will the leader stay?
