"Professor Lin, why is this happening?"
"If he is really as benevolent and loving as you said, then it would be like a sage in ancient times. Shouldn't the people all over the world love such a king?"
"Then why did he become the king of subjugation?"
The thin student Yagyu had a look of disbelief when he heard the words, and he raised his own doubts.
"Good question, why?"
"He lightened the law and abandoned punishment. The common people only know etiquette and self-discipline, and the law is useless."
"Someone committed a capital crime, and before he could be executed, he was pardoned from the capital crime by the amnesty world and punished with hard labor."
"But before the hard labor was over, the king pardoned the world and released him without charge."
"As a result, the law has disappeared, people in the world have nothing to fear, the prestige of the imperial court's laws has been lost, and the wicked are even more unscrupulous after they are released from prison."
"Those who do evil are not punished, and those who do good are not praised. What do you think the world he governs will look like?"
Lin Xuan said deafeningly passionately, with a pun, and then glanced at Li Shimin who was extremely shocked.
The thin student Liu Sheng instantly felt as if a door to a new world had been opened in his heart. He wanted to walk into the door and see the scene of that world, but when he reached the door, he stopped in a daze. He has lost his footsteps, and he doesn't know where the road ahead is.
"Professor Lin, shouldn't these criminals be grateful for the king's grace, abandon evil and do good?"
Liu Sheng's face revealed a look of struggle, and he still asked in bewilderment.
Lin Xuan calmly explained: "Everything in this world is born with each other. Where there is yin, there is yang. People are born with good and evil sides."
"People with evil natures only restrain and suppress the evil in their hearts because they fear punishment."
"Without the deterrence of heavy codes, do you think those poor kind people can survive in a world where demons dance wildly?"
"Not everyone in this world is born a sage and a good person. The vast majority of people are blindly obedient and ignorant."
The voice just fell.
Liu Sheng was puzzled and retorted: "Professor Lin, if the punishment is severely imposed, the etiquette is abandoned, and the morality is reprimanded, it will make people in the world turn pale when they talk about the law, and become terrified when they talk about punishment."
"In this way, people in the world only know the law, but don't know loyalty and filial piety. With the rule of a tyrant who is not loved by the people in the world, will such a country have long-term peace and stability?"
Liu Sheng did not make any concessions. How could he easily believe that the concept of benevolent government and loving the people he has always believed in is a study that will harm the country and the people?
He would rather believe that this was a story told by Lin Xuan, it was just fabricated out of thin air, not reality.
Lin Xuan looked solemn when he heard the words, and explained calmly: "I have not denied the Confucian doctrine of benevolent government and loving the people, but as a king, if you can't listen to all schools of thought and stick to those pedantic words full of benevolence, justice and morality, you won't Knowing how to use punishment to control evil and punish rape is the work of an incompetent and ruthless king."
"Let me ask you, Emperor Zhou believes in benevolence, righteousness and morality. Among all the princes and people in the world, who will save him when he is in trouble?"
"Confucius and Mencius traveled around the world to promote benevolence and righteousness, but did their ideas work in that era? Which vassal state got help from their ideas and changed the status quo?"
"Ji Ke, Xun Kuangji went to the palace to teach. Qi is known as a star-studded gathering of talents from all over the world. Where is Qi now?"
"Emperor Han Yuan and Emperor Han Cheng purely used Confucian benevolence to govern the country. They only educated and did not conduct assessments, and did not impose punishments and punishments. This led to official corruption. Local tyrants took advantage of the opportunity to seize wealth. Land mergers were serious, politics was dark, and national conflicts abound."
"Emperor Han Cheng originally had the opportunity to weaken the power of his relatives, but Confucian benevolence and love for the people require the monarch to practice benevolence and justice, and take the lead in setting an example of benevolence to relatives and courtiers around him. Therefore, people from his mother's family and wife's family cried for him, and he was very angry. Show mercy and stop punishing Da Sima Wangfeng who made mistakes."

"As a result, his power was snatched away by his relatives, and he ended up with no real power."
"Emperor Han Yuan and Emperor Han Cheng were so kind and kind to their relatives, but in the end it was Wang Mang, a man full of Confucian benevolence, who usurped their power. Don't you think they are pathetic?"
"The state of Lu is the most benevolent country. Their king treated his relative Sanhuan benevolently and kindly, but Sanhuan still divided the power of the public house and expelled Confucius."
"Confucius and Mencius's idea of benevolent government sounds like a perfect theory, but in fact, it was not realistic and feasible in the torrent of that turbulent era."
"Times have changed, and everything, any ideas and propositions must be analyzed in detail."
"Kindness is very precious. Once your kindness doesn't grow sharp teeth to protect yourself and your loved ones, it will become weak and bully! Your so-called benevolence is just a joke!"
Lin Xuan talked eloquently and calmly, while Liu Sheng became paler and paler as he listened to it.
From childhood to adulthood, he was the eldest son of the noble family of Hedong Liu, respected by the world, and attracted much attention.
He has been well protected by his mother, causing everything he comes into contact with is the most beautiful thing in the world.
In his world view, everyone is a modest gentleman, polite and gentle as jade.
Today, Lin Xuanzhi's words revealed to him the ugly side of the world.
It was a dark side he had never known before.
It turns out that this world is also full of undercurrents, murderous intentions, intrigues, unscrupulous fights for power and profit, bloody and cold darkness.
The law of the jungle where the weak prey on the strong has always been performed in the real world, and it has never stopped since ancient times!
The prosperity and prosperity he saw was just because his family and his mother protected him very well, shielding himself from the darkness.
"Thank you, Professor Lin, the students understand."
Liu Sheng said reverently with a face of sudden realization.
Lin Xuan nodded when he heard the words, and then slowly said: "You must know that there are black and white sides in this world, and it is not black and white."
"Simple people are not always kind, and honest people may not always be honest."
"A loyal and filial minister may not be virtuous, and a treacherous minister may not be unbearable."
"The son is virtuous on the outside, but vicious on the inside. He was highly appreciated by King Kui of Yan. He followed Yao and Shun's abdication, which led to endless internal strife and the end of the country."
"Yan Wangkui has a noble character and is famous all over the world, but he doesn't eat fireworks in the world. He doesn't know the general trend of the future, and he doesn't know what people want.
"The state of Qi destroyed Yan, killed the king of Yan, destroyed the ancestral temple, slaughtered the community, and defeated the virtues. The Yan people did not feel the pain of mourning the country, so they applauded. When the butcher knife of the Qi people fell on the heads of the Yan people, they had no choice but to go. resist."
"There are only a handful of people in this world who can become the so-called virtue of a gentleman."
"You can use it to measure character, but you can't use it to taste complex and changeable hearts."
The voice just fell.
Liu Sheng looked very disappointed and frustrated, with a look of struggle on his face. He said lightly: "Professor Lin's words are reasonable, but they are just an example after all. Since the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, Yao, Shun and Yu Tang, the sages of all dynasties have advocated benevolence and love. rule the country."
Lin Xuan asked solemnly after hearing the words: "The Three Emperors and Five Emperors ruled the country with benevolence, but who told you that they are not good at killing with iron and blood?"
"If benevolence and love can benefit the world at the same time, how can there be conflicts in this world?"
