Lao Tzu wrote in the biography of Han Fei: Han Fei is the son of Han Fei. I like the study of punishment and magic, which belongs to Huang Lao. I'm not stuttering and I can't talk, but I'm good at writing books. Xun Qing is inextricably linked with Reese. He thinks he is inferior to power.
Han Fei is the son of a Korean aristocrat. He likes the knowledge of criminal names and spells. His theoretical basis comes from Huangdi and Laozi.
Han Fei has a stuttering problem. He is not good at speaking, but he is good at writing books. Both he and Reese are students in Xun Qing. Reese thinks his knowledge is not as good as Han Fei's. Therefore, although Han Fei has a stuttering problem, this cannot hide his talent and ability.
Extended data:
The legalist theory founded by Han Feizi provided the theoretical basis for the birth of the first unified and autocratic centralized state in China, and was considered as one of the two people who got the essence of Lao Zi's thought the most (the other was Zhuang Zhou).
Han Fei loved his motherland deeply, but he didn't get the attention of Hanwang, and the king of Qin attacked South Korea in order to get Han Fei. After Han Fei entered Qin, his strategy of "protecting Han from Qin" could not be used by Qin. Han Fei impeached Shangqing Yao Jia.
Yao Jia retaliated, so he went to prison, and then Reese went to prison and poisoned him. Han Feizi died, but his legalist thought was reused by Ying Zheng, the king of Qin. He regarded Han Feizi as an important guide of Qin, helped Qin to enrich Qiang Bing, and finally unified the six countries.
Han Feizi's works summed up the experience of early legalists and formed a political and ideological system of combining law, technique and potential with law as the center. Han Feizi emphatically summarized the thoughts of Shang Yang, Shen Buhai and Shen Dao, and integrated Shang Yang's method, Shen Buhai's technique and Shen Dao's tendency into a book.
He praised Shang Yang and Shen Buhai, and pointed out that the biggest shortcoming of Shen Shangxue's theory was that it did not combine law with technique. Secondly, the second major shortcoming of Shen Shang's theory is "unfinished", "Shen Zi didn't finish his art and Shang Jun didn't finish his method". (Han Feizi Ding Fa)
According to his own point of view, Han Fei discussed the content of techniques and the relationship between them. He believes that the management of the country needs the monarch's skill of making good use of power, and at the same time, his subordinates must abide by the law. Compared with Shen Buhai, Han Fei's "skill" is mainly developed in the aspect of "knowing traitors by skill".
In his view, the monarch should not trust his deputy too much, and should also "examine the names of criminals". In terms of law, Han Fei particularly emphasized the ideas of "stopping punishment with punishment" and "severe punishment" and "severe punishment".
What is particularly commendable is that Han Feizi clearly put forward the idea that "law is not expensive" for the first time, arguing that "punishment cannot be exempted from officials, and goodness cannot be left behind." This is a great contribution to China's thought of rule of law, which has a positive impact on eliminating aristocratic privileges and maintaining legal dignity.
Han Feizi believes that it is not enough to have laws and technology alone, but also to have "potential" as a guarantee. "Potential" means power and political power. He appreciated what Shen Dao said: "Yao can't rule three people with one man, but Jie can mess up the world for the son of heaven" (The Prisoner).
Put forward the argument that "the law enforcement is to govern the situation, and the law is to eliminate the situation for chaos" (dilemma). Han Feizi's thought of rule of law adapted to the needs of a certain historical development stage in China, and played a certain theoretical guiding role in the establishment of feudal centralization in China.
