The capital of Qin was not Xianyang, which everyone was familiar with later, but a very unfamiliar word - Yong.
After the founding of the Qin State, the capital was moved many times, and the last capital was Xianyang.
Now their country is Yong.
Qin State, the capital.
The sun has not yet risen, and there is only hazy light between heaven and earth.
A young man in his thirties was walking hurriedly on the street.
Ying Li's temperament is not noble. When walking among civilians, he can greet him warmly without appearing superior to others.
Even though he has a surname that only the royal family of Qin has.
This is related to Qin’s founding tradition.
They did not accept the strict etiquette of the Zhou Dynasty, the various hierarchical systems were not unimaginably strict, and they did not have the strong chain of contempt that existed in the Central Plains.
It never strictly claims to be orthodox, claiming to have accepted the inheritance of the Zhou Dynasty, the etiquette of the Zhou Dynasty, and the corresponding hierarchical system.
They lacked knowledge in this area, and their etiquette, customs, culture, and corresponding official positions were different from those of the people in the Central Plains who received inheritance from the Zhou Dynasty.
To put it in more popular terms later, their three views were somewhat different from those of the people near the Zhou Dynasty and those of the Central Plains.
Just like the Lighthouse Country, Tang Xuanming's hometown, its outlook is different in many aspects from the country where Tang Xuanming lives.
Ying Li walked quickly, and the gentle morning sun had not completely spread over the land before he had reached his destination, but even so, there were still many people ahead of him.
Dozens of people had already arrived at a remote square in the city, and Yingli was the last one.
After saying hello to his companions who had become somewhat familiar with him these days, Wang Qi said slightly excitedly: "Hurry up, hurry up, I thought you were too late, the sage is going to give a sermon."
Ying Li smiled and looked around casually. He found that there were still people gathering around him, and his heart sank.
He had only been here for five or six days and listened to sermons. When he first came here, there were not many people gathering here, only a dozen or so people.
But as the number of sermons increased, more and more people gathered here.
In just a few days, the number of people attending lectures here every day has reached hundreds. This is a terrifying speed.
"To be called a sage, you really have transcendent abilities."
Ying Li breathed out a sigh of relief and looked up at the high platform.
There was a young man in a white robe. He had a handsome face and a faint aura of worldliness. He seemed to have a different kind of fairy aura around him, as if he would fly away at any time.
The most eye-catching thing was the young man's gaze, which was as deep and vast as a galaxy, and seemed to contain the mystery of the movement of the entire heaven and earth.
"when!"
A person standing aside gently knocked on the bronze bell next to him, and the crowd suddenly became quiet.
Tang Xuanming's calm voice on the high platform rang in everyone's ears.
"...Today we are going to talk about momentum. The world is in constant chaos and war, but among all living beings, there is a general trend of heaven and earth..."
Ying Li was shocked. The Dharma he heard a few days ago had already made him deeply admire him, as if he were seeing an immortal.
Unlike these ordinary people, as a real high-level leader of the Qin State, he was able to deeply understand the leadership of the Dharma to all living beings in the world and understand its profound significance.
Enforcement of orders and prohibitions, and strict laws and regulations are what all the princes are pursuing.
The Zhou Dynasty was gradually destroyed, and anyone with ambition can understand that the Zhou Dynasty's methods are no longer suitable for the current world.
But it suffers from the fact that no new method has emerged.
The world is in chaos, and the princes are fighting endlessly.
It is difficult to have an existence like the founding emperor of the Zhou Dynasty.
Everyone is groping in the darkness, eager for a way forward.
"In terms of law, if the heaven breaks the law and the common people commit the same crime, it is simply a scandal to the world and will shake the foundation of the country. But if the world is divided and the farmers concentrate on farming, if they can harvest far more than others, and there are effective methods
, you can be promoted to one level and gain an official rank.
If a soldier concentrates on serving, and if he captures an enemy leader, he will be promoted to a noble title, it really has a lot of uses."
Most of the people gathered here were civilians in Guizhou Province, because Tang Xuanming's Tao and Dharma opened another door for them.
They see the path to improvement.
If he were to preach in various countries in the Central Plains, Tang Xuanming would definitely be judged as an evil spirit and be kicked out of his territory.
Because it would shake the interests of the noble families and even the country.
But in the Qin State, the ancestors of the Qin State established the country through military exploits and recovered a large area of land that was difficult to regain by the Zhou Dynasty, and then they enlarged their territory and became real vassals.
In this land, there is a bloodline of opening up territories, expanding territories, and conferring kings and ministers.
"...the one who is powerful is the general trend of the world and the will of the people..."
Ying Li just listened to the beginning, and felt a chill in his heart. Facing Tang Xueming's indifferent eyes, which seemed not to put the whole world in his eyes, but also seemed to have the whole world in his eyes, he was a little horrified, and looked at the surrounding Guizhou heads who were still confused.
, he thought in horror.
"We can't let him continue talking. This is not something that ordinary people can listen to. This is the way of a king. This is something that only the king of a country can listen to. It contains the mysteries of heaven and earth."
Tang Xuanming preached calmly, feeling the violent fluctuations of emotions in the audience, and he smiled calmly in his heart.
He knew that these people understood.
Legalism itself was dedicated to serving the emperor. Law, technique, and power were all taught exclusively for the emperor.
It was prepared for the emperor to herd the world.
In later generations, this may be a piece of bad knowledge, and not many people are even willing to learn it, because it is useless.
But thousands of years ago, when this wisdom had just begun to sprout and the flowers of wisdom of various schools of thought had not yet begun to collide, someone who could speak these words and understand the general trend of the world was already the most top wise man of this era.
.
Legalist Han Feizi and the culmination of Legalism left behind theories that still influence countless people today.
"And now, all the wisdom of Han Feizi belongs to me, and I am Han Feizi."
Tang Xuanming smiled calmly, and then began the final part of today's lecture.
Dharma book!
A group of people who listened to Tang Xuanming's sermon also noticed this and became excited.
It is normal that many ordinary people in this era could not understand the Legalism taught by Tang Xuanming at all.
The Mohist school was the most prominent school in the pre-Qin period. Throughout the pre-Qin period, the Mohist school was the leader among hundreds of schools of thought.
Because his doctrine of universal love and non-aggression is aimed at all ordinary people.
It itself is preached to all living beings.
Very popular among ordinary people.
The Legalists of Tang Xuanming never needed to explain anything to all living beings in the world. It was like shackles and an invisible net that existed between heaven and earth. Everyone was included in it, but there was no way to truly explain it.
touch.
It is invisible and formless, but it can leverage the most terrifying power in the world.
