My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Chapter 64 Two Years of Morality
His words and deeds, in the eyes of the inferior, have no deep meaning.Even most of them have been given political overtones.

Fusu passed by other palaces to go to the latrine, and when he passed by next time, countless people would ask him if he wanted to go in and have a look;

Fusu occasionally said that the chef's cooking today was very unpalatable, and that chef would be severely beaten.

I still remember that Fusu punished two eunuchs who talked about him at the beginning. After the news that Fusu was worshiped as the prince came out, Zhao Gao found an opportunity to kill the two people, and through some twists and turns, made Fusu Su learned the news.

He casually praised Han Fei's talent, and soon the entire Yuyang Palace began to discuss Han Fei, saying that his talent was as high as a mountain and as deep as an ocean.

This is what power does to people.

But it is power that makes these people bow down to him. Once the power is lost, those who were originally attached to him will either step on him in turn, or use his status as the eldest son.

Only if you have power in your hands, they will always treat you like this.Otherwise, in this era, Fusu would not be a person who oppresses others, but he himself is an oppressed person.

Human nature is to always seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, to see benefits without righteousness, and to be shameless.

He may be grateful for your temporary reward, but he will treat you as an enemy because his interests are threatened;
And some people were originally the objects of their loathing, people whom they despised extremely morally, but in order to achieve a certain purpose, they could ignore the previous suspicions and become allies.

When a person fully understands and accepts the influence of the dark side of the human heart, his character will naturally be affected, and the main manifestation is that he will no longer trust others easily, but instead tends to be selfish.

The human heart is black from beginning to end, before 2000, and after 2000.

This was true 2000 years ago, and it will remain true 2000 years later.

Because what is eternal in this world is not only heaven and earth, but also humanity.

It is precisely because the nature of human nature of being indolent and profit-seeking has not changed that Fusu has no sense of security.

Because there is no basic trust between people, only demands for common interests.

Originally, Fusu was still full of expectations for this era, and tried to use some methods to improve people's thinking in this era, but after getting along for a long time, Fusu realized that he might not be able to do anything.

Unless he becomes the emperor, and the imperial power and prestige are as high as the future Yingzheng, or even higher than him.Only then can he realize his political blueprint.

Because Fusu discovered that the social environment in ancient times and modern times was actually similar.

Even the ancient times were much stronger than the modern ones.

First of all, most people in the pre-Qin era did not tell lies.Most of this is calculated using probability, which is 90.00% nine.

As early as when Fusu was in college, his tutor told him a knowledge point that shocked him.

That is, in the early Han Dynasty, all ancient books were [-]% correct and beyond doubt.

When Fusu heard it at the time, his pupils were really shocked.People in that era didn't tell lies, but the books they wrote were [-]% correct and infallible.

With the simplest and most primitive tools, the ancients could still guarantee that as long as the books were handed down, they must be [-]% correct; but in the later generations when the pen and ink tools are very developed, there are countless fake and false books.

It was after the Han Dynasty that with the emergence of people who specialized in preaching and translating scriptures, fake books and tampered contents began to appear.

Every time Fusu lived in the Qin Dynasty and talked with people frequently, he felt so happy in his heart.

Because these people, they don’t lie!
Say what you have, and don't say what you can't say.

It is said that when material conditions improve, people's morality will improve.

Fusu sees a completely different fact.

When everyone is poor and white, there is no conflict of interest, but people's hearts are relatively pure and simple.

On the contrary, where the interests are greater, people's hearts become more complicated and their morals become more corrupt.

如果硬要把2000年前和2000年后的道德水平做个比较的话，2000年前的道德水准为正1，现代的道德水准为负10。

However, the appearance of Han Fei pointed out a way for Fusu.

how to say.

The world was already in a bad place, but Han Fei found a solution to make the world less bad - strengthening the power of the monarch and weakening the power of the ministers.

Add the power of the monarch to the peak, so that the stability of the country's rule will be maximized.

This is not absolute.

The emergence of autocratic monarchy is in line with the times, and it was born when the aristocratic system decayed and collapsed in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, and seriously trampled on the right to subsistence of the common people.

The feudal lords ruled one side, externally manifested as endless wars in the world, and internally manifested as serious ruling crises within the vassal states.

The courtiers monopolize power and kill the king; the nobles in the country are corrupt and the people are in dire straits; droughts, earthquakes...

Natural and man-made disasters continue one after another, and the country is on the verge of collapse.

War is all an excuse!

Han Fei is not as superficial as ordinary scholars. He talks about the collapse of etiquette and the loss of music, and the gains and losses of people's hearts every day.

He discovered loopholes in the political system of feudalism and aristocracy.

Han Fei had a keen insight that the root cause of the endless wars in the world was not that the princes and kings were ambitious and wanted to dominate the world. In fact, the root cause was the instability of power changes within the various princes and states. Internal numbers change hands, and good policies cannot be implemented in a strong and long-term manner.

To keep the country and make the country strong, as long as you can read and read some books, you have a good brain and know how to govern the country.

But most of the time, when a king governs a country, he cannot even take the most basic and crucial step of power.

So no matter how much you know, what's the use?

The king was suppressed by the nobles, and the royal power was difficult to exercise.

Most kings know that the people are living in dire straits, but if they want to change, they have to go beyond the nobles and put their will above the nobles and ministers.And this is to the detriment of the interests of the nobility.

In other words, the centralized monarchy that Han Fei talked about was to solve the evil consequences of the common sharing of power and internal distribution of power by the nobles in the past 500 years or even the past 1000 years.

After reading the chapters of the philosophers and traveling around the countries, Han Fei saw the situation of continuous war, people's livelihood and mourning everywhere.

After seeing the corruption of the nobles in South Korea and the state of the people's livelihood, King Han knew that he would do this, but he had no choice.

In fact, it is hard for people in the world to imagine that the person who wrote such books as "Lonely Wrath", "Shuo Lin", and "Five Beetles" is actually a person who wholeheartedly wants to help the common people get rid of their suffering.

But this is also the limitation that everyone has.

It is not Han Fei who is oppressed and squeezed, that's why Han Fei proposed in "Five Worms" to use everyone in the country to achieve the purpose of the king.
