He raised his head and looked at the darker night outside the window. Xu Ping was silent for a while, sighed and said to Zhao Zhen: "The world's rule, chaos, and fall. When future generations commented on it, they always say which one is a mediocre monarch and which one is a treacherous minister. If there is no such mediocre monarch and treacherous minister in the world, the world will surely prosper forever. In my opinion, how can one or two people be able to cause trouble? There may be such a thing as this dynasty in the previous dynasty, the monarch and ministers of this dynasty, the ancestral family law, and all matters are established, but this should not be the case. Qin has a world, and the second generation died, referring to Qin II and Zhao Gao, and Li Si as treacherous ministers. My ministers say that the second generation and Zhao Gao were certainly tyrants and treacherous ministers, but Qin did not die in the hands of these tyrants and treacherous ministers. The demise of Qin actually died because of his tyrants and treacherous ministers. Later generations should take it as a warning."

Zhao Zhen said: "The fall of Qin was due to tyranny, and the sages discussed it very clearly. Prime Minister, if you say that you help me govern the world with the way of benevolence and righteousness, it must have nothing to do with tyranny. Suddenly, how do you talk about the rise and fall of Qin?"

Xu Ping held the scepter: "Benevolence and righteousness govern the world, and the way of benevolence is indescribable, but the word "righteousness" is actually difficult to describe. I talk about the great affairs of the world, but there is no external civil and military affairs. It is called civil governance in the inside, and martial arts in the outside. Civil governance cannot be promoted outside, and martial arts cannot be obtained inside. Therefore, literary return to be benevolent, and martial arts in the inside are born. Do not impose unkind policies on the inside and do not promote unrighteous soldiers in the outside world. This is the duty of the court. Being benevolent to the outside world and does not know the general situation, just like a woman who manages her family and does not distinguish between inside and outside. The whole court is full of court.

If the ministers show their righteousness to the inside, they have different intentions. The great righteousness of the world must be controlled by the ruler. Therefore, as the prime minister, when he changes the law and governs the country, he should suffer the grudges of the world and return to the superiors. What I said below is mostly about being complained about, and with Your Majesty's intelligence, you can know it yourself. I clearly say that it is not to distinguish it from Your Majesty, but only tell the people that the people in the future have many things that cannot be taken into account. Later generations should know that this policy is only beneficial to this time and place, and should not be followed."

Later generations often mocked ancient China that no matter what, the emperor was wise, and if he was bad, there were treacherous ministers. In fact, this is China's political system, the grievances belong to oneself and the grace belonged to the top. Otherwise, do you want to be Wang Mang? You agree to be a minister, and the emperor gives you the power, and if the matter is broken, no matter what the reason, you have to be willing to be punished. How can you not bear any grievances?

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen stood up after the case and said to Xu Ping: "I have summoned the prime minister to consult the way of governing the world to achieve peace in the world. Why does the prime minister say this? You, I, the king and the minister, should work together to save the people's suffering and make the world peaceful!"

"Everything should be divided into two. There must be one advantage, and there must be one disadvantage, which varies from time to time. Good governance at this time may be bad politics after a hundred years. The disadvantages removed at this time may be beneficial to the current world after a hundred years. Politics due to time and time, due to the earth, and temporary measures cannot lead to peace for a hundred years. Those who govern should know well, check the time, check the place, and use the art of governing the world. They should not follow the situation and carve the boat and seek the sword. Since ancient times, there have been countless people who want to reform, and there are successes, and there are defeats. If the achievements of reform are not greater than that of Qin using Shang Yang, Qin was rich and strong, and eventually destroyed the six countries and unified the world. Qin used Shang Yang's technique to reform and reform to make the country strong, and Shang Yang was eventually punished by the carriage splitting. Wouldn't it be shocked?

With one technique, the country governs the country only takes advantage of the end of the time, and its disadvantages have been planted. Times change and the world have changed, and its advantages have gradually disappeared, and its disadvantages have gradually emerged. At this time, the country governs the country should seek a different technique, take advantage and temporarily suppress its disadvantages. Performing the world with benevolence and righteousness is the great way of governing the country, and the great way can be carried out for all generations. The art of governing the country under the Tao is just a temporary temporary measure. When the benefits and disadvantages are revealed, the country governs the country should seek different skills. The scholars do not know that the world is well-versed, and see the glory of the moment, but after a hundred years, they will hang up and dance and tell the world. You are all stupid, ignorant, deceived by others, and smart as me, then you will see that the failure is already planted when the world is successful. The destruction of the world will not be destroyed by someone who has made great achievements!”

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen was stunned for a moment. Even Wu Yu, who was recording, raised his head and looked at Xu Ping. He didn't know how he suddenly said this. With the Song Dynasty system, Shang Yang's tragedy was impossible, so what's the use of saying it?

Why do you say this? Because what Xu Ping wants to say next is to seize the surplus of social production from the current forces. With the knowledge of his previous life, with the progress of productivity and the development of production, he may not really make the surplus of the forces poor in this process. The so-called snatch is not really a snatch, but the share of the snatch will be smaller in the future. However, some people are like this, holding grudges but not remembering grace, not having enough cheapness, and not having to play with them. If others make ten coins of money, they will feel that they have suffered a huge grievance. There is no good person in the world. With such a person, Xu Ping said so clearly, and someone will definitely call him mean in the future, and the whole world will suffer benefits, or be mean.

The words are made clear, for the sake of future generations. Using tricks of deceiving only won for a while and became famous in later generations.

Speaking of Shang Yang's reform, the scholar's opinion was because he suddenly remembered that in the articles he learned in his previous life, someone said that in order to allude to Wang Anshi, Shang Yang's reforms were like this. This person was Su Shi, and his uncle Cheng Jun was the same year of Xu Ping. During the palace examination, they were the only two of them to say a few words together. Through Cheng Jun, Xu Ping knew Su Xun, but at this time, the Su Shi brothers were still children who had just run away. Xu Ping only knew that there were such two brothers. When a literati became mean, that's true.

He could describe the black ones as white. Because he opposed Wang Anshi's reform, Su Shi wrote an article, saying that the prosperity and strength of Qin had nothing to do with Shang Yang, and that the demise was all caused by him. Su Shi wrote this "On Shang Yang", with the original intention of belittling Shang Yang and Sang Hongyang, and criticizing Song Shenzong and Wang Anshi. Later generations had a young literati. When he saw this, he thought he had discovered some great truth. He was shocked and said that you didn't know, because the Qin Dynasty was destroyed by Shang Yang.

Among scholars, they are most afraid of little literati. Such people are overly self-aware, envious, jealous and hateful to their superiors, and disdain for their contempt that are not as good as themselves. Once they talk to people around them, they are talented in peace and stability, but they have no eyes and are not important. When they get along with them, they nodded and bowed their heads and tried their best to make things happen. For helpless things, the lower-level public opinion is most deeply influenced by such little literati and spread rumors. Once the people above use them, they will be reversed.

Xu Ping had a colleague in his previous life. He didn't know what he had returned from studying in a university in a certain country. Because he had foreign flavor, foreign scholars were far better than him as a local juren in the eyes of leaders. When he talked about things, he often said something disdainfully, foreigners had long been like what you said. If you really ask about what you said, no matter what politics, economy, society, or culture, he could not speak smoothly. Because he had foreign flavor, no matter how he said it was, he would always be disdainful to Xu Ping, and you could not do anything to him. The same is true for a young literati. You don't like him, but he was a literati after all. In the era of governing the country with culture, his social status was not comparable to you.

Reformers are most afraid of these things. What are the principles of governing the country and governing the country in the end, and they will eventually be implemented one by one administrative measure. Many of them explain these measures at the bottom and preside over specific governance measures. Why, as a person who has been a thousand years later, did not oppose the distinction between officials? I am really afraid of them, so it is best to stay at the level of officials.

Being the prime minister and carrying out reforms has become the benefit of the world. Even if there are some oppositions at the moment, they can only bear it. What they are afraid of is that there are later generations. When the pros and cons of these reform measures are revealed, they use the mouths of young scholars to kick themselves, the pioneer of reform, to the ground. They suppress themselves, and then use the measures at this time in reverse. The times are different. Maybe it will be fine when this time is not good. Now it will not work, and it will cause ideological chaos again.

Seeing that Zhao Zhen and Wu Yu had strange expressions, Xu Ping said: "Even if Tao and art are similar, they must not be confused. The world is guarded by Tao and prospered by art. The great way remains unchanged, and the country is forever solid; small skills change, and the world is prospering again and again. What the world calls reform is actually when the art of governing the country is revealed when the pros and cons of the country is revealed. You should not ask why the country has not risen, nor should you want to defend the world with this world because of one skill. The rise of Qin is the art of art. The fall of Qin is abandoned and the art of art. The prime minister uses the great way to assist the king, and the minister treats Your Majesty with the way of benevolence and righteousness. However, in the current administration of government, one must use a certain technique. The art of art is not the way, but it must have both advantages and disadvantages. When this art is used, both of them are used to temporarily suppress their disadvantages. Those who later govern the government should know well that when the pros and disadvantages are revealed, they should change their skills."

Tao is ideology, and art is temporary policy measures. These measures sway between the two sides of the regime maintaining rule and suppressing exploitation. Determining how to view exploitation, it determines the ideology. Different ideologies can use the same governance measures, but have different purposes to solve different problems. Don’t think that using the same policy measures is the same ideology, and then you will lose your ideology.

Capitalism has Keynesianism, and it cannot be considered based on this that it has a socialist component, but only uses these policy measures to reconcile class. If it is not reconciled, the intensity of exploitation has prevented the society from developing. In socialist countries, there may be similar administrative measures to adjust the intensity of exploitation, but their goals and means will not be the same, so there is a problem.

The colleague in Xu Ping's previous life liked to talk about taxpayers the most. Another sentence that followed was how I was abroad back then. Using the word taxpayer to demand the government is a typical ideology.

It is a must to maintain a regime to reconcile conflicts. Only by paying taxes to this regime will you be treated as a taxpayer. If I pay taxes to this regime, I will scold you if I don’t like it. The regime should take their concerns seriously. Those who are too poor and do not pay taxes are sorry, the regime will not serve you. Those who are rich and do not pay taxes do not like you, why don’t the regime force them to fulfill their obligations? Sorry, that is the master of the regime, and the regime controls the vast majority of the middle class. If you want to be a taxpayer and get the treatment of a taxpayer, you have to accept that the regime has a master and help the master manage you first.

If you think exploitation should not be, it is just a temporary endurance. Your rights and obligations have nothing to do with tax payments, and paying taxes is just one of your obligations. Whether you pay taxes or not, you should have the same rights and obligations.
