Seeing a fat woman hit the ground, the soldiers raised their long swords as if reflexively, and all aimed at Gongsun Linglong.
"Why are you so nervous when facing a delicate woman like me?"
Gongsun Linglong said to the coachman: "Go and bring Ta Xue over."
"Didn't you hear that?"
The soldier shouted: "The law stipulates that you are not allowed to take horses out of the customs."
"Ouch! Brother Bing, please listen to me!"
Gongsun Linglong swayed her waist, and as soon as she came closer, the group of soldiers retreated with a crash. The leader turned sideways and clasped his hands, and his second-in-command said: "Don't let us repeat it a third time, otherwise you will never get out!
"
Gongsun Linglong moved her body back: "Brother Bing, I'm not talking back to you, I'm trying to reason with you, look!"
Ta! Ta!
The sound of horse hooves trampling on the ground came, and the driver pulled out a white horse with pure coat and a very elegant horse.
Since Gongsun Long took advantage of this situation, this white horse became famous in one fell swoop, but it was regarded as a treasure. Horses on the road were often exhausted to death, so it always followed behind.
"The name of this white horse is Ta Xue."
Gongsun Linglong smiled and said: "There are many colors of horses in this world, including white, black, brown, yellow and gray, but the white horse is always the most beautiful. If your mount is a white horse and you lend it to others for a day, the result will be second."
The sky returns a dark horse and tells you that they are all the same. They are all horses anyway. Can you agree?"
The deputy was startled: "Of course you can't!"
Gongsun Linglong said: "What if that person says that a white horse is a horse and a black horse is a horse, so the white horse is a black horse, then can you accept it?"
The deputy subconsciously said: "Nonsense, unacceptable!"
Gongsun Linglong covered her mouth and said with a smile: "That's right. A white horse is not a black horse. So conversely, a horse is not the same as a white horse, and a horse is not the same as a black horse, right?"
The deputy felt something was wrong, but couldn't tell what was wrong: "This..."
Gongsun Linglong made the final decision: "Since a horse is not the same as a white horse, is there anything wrong with me saying that this white horse is not a horse? The law stipulates that you are not allowed to take a horse out of the customs, so what does it have to do with my white horse?"
The deputy said: "Wait! Wait! Let me think..."
Not to mention him, even those soldiers had horses in their minds.
At first glance, everything Gongsun Linglong said was correct, but in the end, the conclusion he drew was obviously not quite right.
In fact, the key to whether a white horse is not a horse lies in the concepts of "right" and "wrong".
To put it bluntly, white horse is two words, and horse is one word. White horse is indeed not the same as horse, but in people's common thinking, white horse belongs to horse, so this argument sounds ridiculous, but it also contains logic.
and philosophical thinking.
Of course, in Gongsun Linglong's words, this was just a kind of sophistry, but what Gongsun Long said was much more profound than hers.
Therefore, although those soldiers were bypassed by Gongsun Linglong, they were not fooled and said in a deep voice: "I don't care about your white horse or black horse. The horse can't get out of the barrier anyway, so get out of here!"
Gongsun Linglong rolled her eyes: "Hey, I see that Brother Bing is an extraordinary talker, and he was born in Qilu, so he doesn't know about the founder of Confucianism, Master Kong, right? In fact, he also agrees with 'a white horse is not a horse'!"
The deputy was startled: "How is that possible?"
Gongsun Linglong said: "Back then, the King of Chu lost a treasure bow while he was out hunting. His followers wanted to look for it, but the King of Chu said, "The people of Chu lost it, and the people of Chu got it, so why bother to look for it to show their generosity?" However, Kong
After the old master heard about it, he thought that the king of Chu was not broad-minded enough. He only needed to say that what is lost is what others gain, so why limit it to the people of Chu?"
The deputy nodded repeatedly: "It is indeed the words of a sage."
Gongsun Linglong smiled and said: "If the people of Chu are the same, why did Master Kong correct the King of Chu? Obviously, he thought that the people of Chu were different, so he corrected the King of Chu. The people of Chu are not human, and the white horse
It’s not a horse, it just coincides with it!”
At this point, Gongsun Linglong's face suddenly turned serious: "Don't you agree with Old Master Kong? Then after we go back, we must go to Xiaoshengxian Manor and let the Confucian disciples go and talk to King Qi!"
The debate was full of threats until the end.
"Something's wrong."
Gongsun Long sat on the carriage and watched with cold eyes.
Although the granddaughter's sophistry was a little below the level of the lower class, given her age and experience, it was quite good to be able to do so, and Gongsun Long was also very pleased.
But soon, he felt something was wrong.
Because after hearing the threat, the soldiers showed no fear at all, and there was still a vague sneer in their brows.
"Are these people not Qi soldiers?"
Gongsun Long's expression changed, but Gongsun Linglong arrogantly waited for the soldiers to surrender.
"Back off!"
"Yes, sir!"
However, what she was waiting for was the deputy retreating silently, and the leader's sinister eyes scanning over him.
"Who are you?"
Gongsun Linglong's face froze, and a chill spread all over his body.
"My name is Zhao Gao, and the white horse is not a horse. It is indeed a wonderful debate. However, I also have a topic, and I would like to ask the master of the famous family to solve the topic!"
Zhao Gaoxin waved his hand, and the purple true energy popped out, turned into an arrow, and shot through the air.
I heard a beast shadow hundreds of steps away whimpering and falling down. When I looked up, I saw that it was an elk.
Zhao Gao gently stroked the elk's head with his palms. The wounds of the elk were actually healing. After slowly standing up, it regained its vitality.
Zhao Gao turned over and rode on it, walked around in a circle, and said with satisfaction: "What a good horse."
Gongsun Linglong raised her eyebrows: "This is obviously a deer, how could it be a horse?"
"This is the horse!"
Zhao Gao sneered and looked at the killers behind him: "What do you think this is?"
The snare killers were shocked, hesitated for a moment, and then said in unison: "Sir, this is a horse!"
Gongsun Linglong's competitive spirit overcame his fear, and he said with disdain: "What a mess!"
"Nonsense?"
Zhao Gao sneered and said: "One day when the law is promulgated, the long horns will fork into horses, and those who are good at running and hardworking will become deer. Thirty years later, what is a horse and what is a deer?"
Gongsun Linglong was suddenly startled.
"I am ashamed of myself! Let's go!"
Not to mention her, Gongsun Long was stunned. After a moment, he suddenly showed a look of ecstasy, as if he was enlightened and suddenly realized: "There is no need to go back to Chu State. Let's go to Qin State to find Han Fei and Li Si. The way out for famous people is in France."
Home!"
…
…
"Zhao Gao played his true character and did a good job. Have you finally realized it?"
In Shouyang Mansion, Gu Cheng nodded.
The "white horse is not a horse" type of debate can be elevated to a kind of philosophical thinking, but unfortunately it has no practical significance for ancient times.
Therefore, among the hundreds of schools of thought and the twelve schools of thought, famous scholars are the first to be eliminated. But if we look at it from the perspective of later generations, famous scholars are debaters, and debaters are lawyers, and what lawyers need to master is naturally the essence of law.
The Legalists formulated the rules and constantly improved them, while the famous scholars found loopholes and popularized the laws. The two families complemented each other and could determine the laws of Qin!
With the help of these two great avenues, you can follow your words!
