    "Who can decide whether to give birth or not? Of course everyone decides." Faced with Han Fei's questioning, Yunyao said naturally.

    "It's the same crazy thing about handing over power to everyone." Han Fei was very excited because he hadn't encountered such a shameless opponent for a long time. He couldn't wait to use his own ideas to refute the opponent, so he said: "Power, the wise use it."  When it comes to governance, those who are unworthy will lead to chaos. Today, there are few virtuous people and many unworthy people. You allow everyone to have authority. You do not intend to give wings to the tiger, but you want to destroy the world."

    ¡°Authority exists objectively, just like a kitchen knife, it depends on who uses it.  If good people use it, the world will be stable; if bad people use it, the world will be in chaos.  Since human nature is inherently evil, there are naturally more bad people and fewer good people.

    "What is authority?" Yunyao asked.

    "Confucius served as a minister to Duke Ai of Lu back then, which was a sign of authority. Confucius was a wise man, but Duke Ai of Lu was unworthy. In terms of benevolence, righteousness, and morality, Confucius should not have been under Duke Ai of Lu. But because of his authority, Confucius could only be a minister.  Duke Ai of Lu will be the monarch." Han Fei said confidently.

    Originally this was formulated by Zhou Rites, but in Han Fei's words, the rule of etiquette has evolved into authority.  In his opinion, Confucius was a minister not because of etiquette, but because of the power of Duke Ai of Lu.

    In fact, this also represents the difference of the times. In Confucius's era, Confucius could simply not abandon Duke Ai of Lu, and he also lived well in other countries.  Confucius still had great autonomy and had many choices.

    But now, even if Confucius is resurrected, there is no such choice. If he disobeys, he will be killed.  There was no choice but to be forced, so Han Fei and the others deeply felt their lack of freedom and the power of authority.

    You can¡¯t feel it in Confucius¡¯ era, because Confucius himself also had great power. If he wanted to, he could really be the king of the country by himself. However, Confucius restrained himself and restored etiquette, and was not willing to subjugate the inferior to the superior.

    Now, it is impossible for Han Fei to have such an opportunity. It is already difficult for them to form a team and stand on their own without looking at other people's faces.  Nowadays, no matter which country they go to, they have to look at the monarch's face and be careful. If they are not careful, they may lose their heads.

    By the end of the Warring States Period, the environment had become very harsh, and the tolerance of the Western Zhou Dynasty had long since ceased.  So Han Fei could feel the ubiquitous authority. When they analyzed the problem, Yao, Shun, Yu and Shang, Tang and King Wen were all in power games.

    "Haha, you guys are really interesting. You say that times have changed and the etiquette of the past cannot be applied to today. But you use today's situation to analyze history. Isn't this a slap in the face?" Yunyao laughed and said:  "Authority is indeed everywhere today, but Confucius was not so serious back then. At that time, Confucius was not afraid of Duke Ai of Lu's authority at all. It was Duke Ai of Lu who wanted to use Confucius's power to fight against Sanhuan. If Duke Ai of Lu's authority was really so powerful,  Sanhuan has been dealt with long ago. So your so-called authority only really appeared during this period. In the past, no one had such great power." Yunyao talked eloquently: "So Lu Aigong and Confucius used each other.  , Confucius used Duke Ai of Lu to restore Zhou rites, and Duke Ai of Lu used Confucius to attack the Three Huans. The so-called power is a balance, not one person's arbitrariness, but a game between multiple groups. It is the same as playing ink cards. Duke Ai of Lu has cards in his hand.  , Confucius also has cards in his hand, and Sanhuan also has cards in his hand." "And just now you said that there are many desires but few things, and now you are saying that there are few virtuous people and many unworthy ones. According to your principle of wanting and evil to have the same thing, virtuous people  There are only a few people, so everyone should strive to be a sage, so why are there so many people who are unworthy?"

    Han Fei was stunned. He had never thought about this. He thought that power was the power of the monarch, but he never thought that there is no eternal monarch. The biggest problem in Confucius's era was to overcome the superior.

    ¡°Power has always been bipolar. When you control others, others are also restricting you.

    Han Feizi has always been thinking about power. Many questions are sharp to the point, but many of his views are too taken for granted. For example, if a sage has power, the world will be governed. This is definitely wrong.  Many monarchs in the Spring and Autumn Period were good, but they were killed by their superiors.  However, if an unscrupulous person holds power, the world will be in chaos. This is not necessarily true. As long as they do not interfere with the interests of the interest groups below, then the interest groups will still be happy to recognize the status of the unscrupulous person.

    Therefore, authority is only suitable for Han Feizi's current era, and cannot be applied to all eras.

    Under authority, what really matters is the distribution of interests.  Therefore, although Xunzi, Li Si, and Han Fei have seen the problem, the solution is still far away.

    Han Fei obviously didn't expect Yunyao to say this, and his understanding of power was shaken.  He originally thought that authority existed objectively and was unshakable, and whoever got it belonged to him. However, in Yunyao's words, authority was also intertwined and constrained with each other. The game of power was not only about clear rewards and punishments, but also about employing people.  .

      Han Fei suddenly thought of Guan Zi's words: Every country has its own laws, but there is no way to implement them.  That is to say, all countries in the Spring and Autumn Period had laws, but there was no law that ensured the enforcement of the laws.

    Law is a good thing. It is not only the Legalists who realize that national law is very important in the era of Guanzi. The problem is how to ensure law enforcement.

    Han Fei wanted to use power to enforce the law, but now Yunyao told him that power is also divided into different parts. Different parts naturally have to fight against each other, and naturally they cannot implement the law wholeheartedly.  This caused the core of Han Fei's proposition to be destroyed, and he suddenly turned pale.

    Li Si didn¡¯t say a word, because he is not good at debating. He is better at thinking of ways and using platforms to solve problems.  He would do as many things as there was a platform. Li Si's goal was very clear: to keep changing jobs. Jixia Academy was just a place for him to get gold, and his goal was the State of Qin.  At this time, Li Si took a deep look at Yunyao. He knew that this young man was very powerful. As a good friend of Han Fei, Li Si naturally knew what Han Fei stood for and that Han Fei advocated the parallelism of rights and law.

    But Li Si has never thought about such a thing, because what he seeks is his own glory and wealth, and he will not insist on any idea. He must use whichever one is easier to use.

    "Han Fei, please sit down first." Xunzi noticed that his disciple looked unhappy and asked him to sit down to avoid getting dizzy with anger.  He also looked at Yunyao, and this time he stood up, because he found that although Yunyao's knowledge was utopian, he was still very good at analyzing problems, and the theories of Confucius and Lu Aigong were even more wonderful.  "You cannot use ancient laws to govern today, nor can you analyze ancient times based on today's situation. You are indeed right, but if neither ancient laws nor today can analyze the past and present at the same time, what should we do? And you said  "That's right. If people want to hate the same thing, everyone should strive to be a sage. But there are so few sages now, why?" Xunzi asked Yunyao if there was a way to measure the past and the present and connect the two.  together?  I also want to know why everyone doesn¡¯t want to be a sage.

    Of course there are methodologies that connect the past and the present, such as the theory of contradiction, analysis of distribution methods, etc., because the theory of contradiction is objective and the development of distribution methods is also consistent.

    "It is not advisable to honor the past and abuse the present, or to abuse the past and honor the present. We must analyze the problems that occurred in ancient times and the methods of the ancients to solve them. The problem in Confucius's era was the collapse of rituals and music, and the solution was external expansion. Later, external expansion did not work.  The problem now is that the seven countries have to transfer their domestic problems, so they can only launch a war. But this kind of transfer cannot solve the fundamental problem at all, so someone must come up with a new solution." Yunyao knew that in the end  This method was proposed by Li Si, who opposed feudalism, insisted on counties and counties, and unified weights and measures. The method was also very drastic, directly burning books.

    But Li Si did it.

    ??New solutions are unknown to everyone.  But Li Si did it by borrowing the platform of Qin.
