    *** On this day, the "Da Qin Times" published a special issue, and it was published by telegraph in Beijing, Xijing, Chengdu, Wuhan, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Changsha and other places at the same time.  ¡° Such a big war must have big news, at least that¡¯s what everyone vying to buy ¡°Da Qin Times¡± thought.  However, when everyone bought this extra, they were surprised to find that this extra only published two sheep-related stories, and they were published in an easy-to-understand spoken language.  The first story is: There are a group of sheep living on each of the two grasslands. The sheep on the west grassland have no natural enemies. They live a carefree life. They eat green grass every day and sleep comfortably when they are full. However,  Soon, the sheep on the west grassland fell ill one after another. In the end, no one was spared and all died of the disease.  And the sheep on the east grassland are chased by the wolf every day because there is a wolf watching nearby. Those sheep that are weak and infected are always eaten by the wolf first.  Over a long period of time, the sheep flocks in the east have been able to remain healthy and reproduce from generation to generation.  This first story is very simple and short.  The second story is relatively longer: The gods put two groups of sheep on the grassland, one group in the south and one group in the north.  The fairy also found two natural enemies for the sheep, one was a lion and the other was a wolf.  The fairy said to the sheep: "If you want a wolf, give me one, and let it bite you as it likes. If you want a lion, give me two. You can choose one of the two lions, and you can change it at any time."  The sheep thought that the lion was much more ferocious than the wolf, so it was better to choose the wolf.  So, they wanted a wolf.  ?? The flock of sheep in the north thought, although lions are much more ferocious than wolves, we have the right to choose, so let¡¯s go for the lions.  So, they asked for two lions.  After the wolf entered the sheep flock in the south, he began to eat the sheep.  Wolves have small bodies and small appetites.  One orchid will keep it from eating for several days, so that the sheep will only be hunted once every few days.  The flock of sheep in the north chose one lion, and the other one stayed with the gods.  After the lion entered the flock, he also began to eat the sheep.  Not only are lions more ferocious than wolves, but they also eat an astonishing amount of food, eating one sheep every day.  In this way, the sheep will be chased and killed every day, and they will be terrified.  The sheep quickly asked the gods to replace them with a lion.  Unexpectedly, the lion kept by the fairy had not eaten and was hungry. It rushed into the sheep and bit more crazily than the lion in front of it.  The sheep were running for their lives like this all day long, and they could barely eat any grass.  The sheep in the south are glad that they have chosen the right natural enemy.  He also laughed at the sheep in the north for their lack of vision.  The sheep in the north were very regretful and complained to the gods, asking for a wolf instead of their natural enemy.  The fairy said: "Once the natural enemy is determined, it cannot be changed. It must be followed from generation to generation. Your only right is to choose between two lions." The sheep flock in the north had to constantly replace the two lions.  But the two lions were equally ferocious, and either one would be much more miserable than the sheep in the south. They simply refused to change, leaving one lion to become fat and strong, and the other to starve and become lean.  Seeing that the thin lion was about to starve to death, they asked the gods to replace it with another one.  After being hungry for a long time, this thin lion slowly realized a truth: Although he was extremely ferocious and could not be his opponent to a hundred sheep, his destiny was controlled by the sheep.  The sheep can send themselves back to God at any time, suffering the torments of hunger and possibly even starving to death.  After figuring this out, the thin lion was very polite to the sheep, and would only eat dead sheep and sick sheep, but would not eat any healthy sheep.  The sheep were overjoyed, and a few lambs suggested that they simply want the thin lion instead of the fat lion.  An old ram reminded: "The thin lion is so kind to us because he is afraid that we will send him back to the gods to starve. If the fat lion dies of starvation, we have no choice, and the thin lion will soon return to its ferocity."  The sheep thought that the old sheep was right. In order to prevent the other lion from starving to death, they quickly replaced it.  The formerly fat and strong lion was so hungry that only skin and bones were left, and he also understood that his destiny was in the hands of the sheep.  In order to stay on the grassland longer, it went so far as to please the sheep in every possible way.  The lion who was handed over to God was so sad that he shed tears.  After experiencing many hardships, the sheep in the north finally lived a free life.  ??The situation of the sheep in the south is getting more and more miserable.  Because the wolf had no competitors and the sheep could not replace it, it behaved wildly and killed dozens of sheep every day. This wolf no longer eats mutton. It only drinks the blood in the hearts of the sheep.  It also doesn't allow the sheep to bray, and will kill any one that brays immediately.  The sheep in the south can only lament in their hearts: If I had known this, I might as well have had two lions.  The dignified "Da Qin Times" went to war in various places at the same time.  It was actually just to publish these two stories.??, nothing more.  For this reason, the world cannot help but be in an uproar.  People don¡¯t know why, so they can¡¯t help but talk about it.  Especially the scholars in the world.  Nowadays, the debate between Confucianism and Legalism is intensifying, public sentiments are boiling, and the world is shaken.  At this moment, "Da Qin Times" deliberately published these two stories on purpose, which was definitely not accidental, so everyone was thinking about these two stories anyway.  The next day, "Da Qin Times" published its official issue in various places at the same time, publishing an article signed by Wang Fuzhi, a Hanlin scholar.  From the first story, Wang Euzhi talked about the principle of living in sorrow and dying in happiness. Whether it is a country or an idea, if it has no natural enemies and lives in peace and happiness for a long time, it will gradually decay and die.  The same goes for Confucianism. You must dare to accept the challenges of other doctrines in order to continuously improve yourself and improve yourself.  The second story reminds us that it is important to keep our options open.  Confucianism may be the best, but it cannot kill Legalism with one blow.  "You cannot let a certain kind of academic think that it is the only one and there is no substitute. For those who choose, this can give themselves a chance to survive."  For the chosen one, it can be prompted to continuously improve itself, and then this kind of thinking can become better.  Wang Fuzhi then took the Ming Dynasty's Eight-legged essay as an example. After the Eight-legged essay was set as the only standard for imperial examinations, scholars lost other options when composing their essays and could only write articles according to the format of the Eight-legged essay.  The final result is that the minds of scholars become increasingly rigid. You copy me, I copy you, and the articles you produce are rotten.  In addition, Confucianism has been the only religion in the past dynasties. Why does it happen that every three or two hundred years, bureaucratic corruption and corruption become commonplace, which ultimately leads to the loss of the people's homes, the failure of the military officials to punish them, and the rise of rebellions and the loss of life?  The conclusion is to only respect Confucianism and exclude other methods, causing Confucians to corrupt themselves and even lose the ability to maintain the bottom line of society.  Wang Fuzhi¡¯s articles quoted scriptures, cited facts and reasoned.  Thousands of words.  There is no doubt that this was like a big explosion, thrown into the crowd, instantly arousing a violent reaction.  It was precisely because he knew that this move would surely stir up a thousand waves with one stone that Wang Fuzhi found it difficult to move when he accepted Qin Mu's summons and left Jianjia Hall.  Qin Mu's idea is very simple. Aren't you arguing about valuing law over Confucianism? I will muddy the water. In addition, this truth is not just for scholars, but more importantly, it is for millions of ordinary people.  .  He is clearly telling the people that although Confucianism is good, it is not your only choice. You must remember that if there is no other choice, Confucianism can become extremely cruel, eat your flesh and peel off your skin.  Only by retaining other options can Confucianism become better, society can be healthier, and the rights and interests of ordinary people can be better protected.  Of course, relying on Da Qin Times¡¯s propaganda alone is not enough to awaken the people, so Qin Mu also has second-hand preparations.  That is to mobilize industrial and commercial owners, like Xu Yongshun, as well as chambers of commerce in various provinces. Their business offices are spread all over the place, penetrating into all walks of life and every corner. In addition, they have powerful information dissemination capabilities, so that they can reach out to ordinary people.  Vigorous publicity, and finally the public opinion offensive of the lower class people, forced those scholars.  This was a big battle that Qin Mu could not afford to lose, so the counterattack he launched was unparalleled in its momentum.  Through these two sides of the story, the emperor was compared to a god by the people all over the world, while Confucianism and Law were compared to two lions respectively, and the people became that group of sheep.  Dear lambs, please keep your right to choose. That is your life-saving grass. Don¡¯t throw it away.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
