After hearing these words, Xu Zun and Sima Guang both breathed a sigh of relief.

Damn it!

It’s really annoying!

The topic just now really scared them both.

One is his father-in-law, and the other is the official who recommended him. If something goes wrong, they will definitely be implicated.

But it must be said that Zhang Fei’s explanation was perfect.

Whether it is "the monarch is guilty of the same crime as the common people" or the fact that the literati and officials are not subject to punishment, everyone knows this kind of privilege, and the legal system is infringing on the emperor's rights and interests.

The emperor was the direct beneficiary. If we trace the root of the problem, isn't it the emperor who is at fault?

However, Zhang Fei cleverly stated that this was because the legal system was not perfect enough, not because the emperor himself was selfish and unwilling to be supervised by the law.

What does it mean to be perfect?

...

...

There is no definitive conclusion.

The initiative still lies in the hands of the emperor.

Moreover, this last sentence directly sublimates the study of law.

Although law was a compulsory course for officials in the Song Dynasty, its effect and importance were far less than Confucianism.

However, if the concept of the law of the rule of law is implanted into jurisprudence, the importance of this course will be self-evident. It can be said to be the Mahayana way to govern the world.

Of course, if one wants to achieve the Mahayana path, one must go through eighty-one difficulties.

Therefore, this course is really difficult to take, especially with such a teacher.

Every student present had tears in their eyes.

I feel so aggrieved.

This Erbi is really petty. After all, we are the chosen ones of heaven. This class of yours has humiliated us from the beginning to now.

It never ends.

Can you please be a little more open-minded?

You have to know that these people are all geniuses from all over the place. They have been praised since childhood and have never been called stupid or dumb. But in Zhang Fei's class, they themselves feel like fools.

The ink in the stomach turned into feces and had no effect at all.

When it came to the dispute between Confucianism and Legalism, they had almost no say and could only listen. It was all scholars like Fu Bi and Yan Fu who were talking to Zhang Fei.

Therefore, they could only silently endure Zhang Fei's humiliation.

"I think your statement is a bit of a generalization. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, all countries were looking for ways to become stronger, and in the end the Legalists stood out and helped the Emperor Qin to conquer the world. This shows that the Legalists must have their merits, and they are not as bad as you say."

Wang Anshi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

Sima Guang, Wen Yanbo and Fu Bi glanced at Wang Anshi and immediately perked up.

This guy is finally going to take action.

Yan Fu and the others' eyes lit up. These two were not good guys. It would be better to let them fight each other.

Zhang Fei shook his head and said, "In my opinion, there is nothing to recommend it."

"Not necessarily."

Wang Anshi said: "At that time, Qin was surrounded by powerful enemies, with internal and external troubles. Fortunately, it had the law of the Legalists, so it was able to turn the tide and unify the six kingdoms. If it had not been for the Legalists, I am afraid that Qin would have been destroyed by Wei. How can it be said that there is nothing to be gained?"

Zhao Xu frowned slightly when he heard this.

This is not talking about the Qin State, it is clearly talking about our Song Dynasty!

Fu Bi, Sima Guang and others also heard the hidden meaning.

Wang Anshi wanted to use the method of reviving Qin to provide support for his new policies.

Today, the Song Dynasty is also facing internal and external troubles, with powerful enemies surrounding it. We have to find a way to solve them!

However, conservatives are firmly opposed to this method. The laws of our ancestors are very clear about preventing unexpected events and controlling crooked situations.

However, can the rule of law solve these problems?

They also suddenly became interested and looked at Zhang Fei with interest.

Zhang Fei laughed and said, "The Qin State lost so many people, and then established an empire that perished in the second generation. After that, there was another round of massacres until the establishment of the Han Dynasty. The Qin people probably wondered what we were trying to achieve. I think this is a kind of irony. Of course, this is not the Qin State's fault. No one expected it to turn out like this at the time. But we, the later generations, should take it as a warning and not repeat the same mistakes."

Fu Bi, Wen Yanbo and others nodded, expressing their agreement.

Wang Anshi said: "Although the Qin Dynasty fell in the second generation, it cannot be entirely blamed on the Legalists at that time!"

Boom boom boom!

The sound of gongs and drums suddenly rang out.

Wang Anshi had forgotten that he was in the Imperial College and was stunned for a moment, wondering where the sound of gongs and drums came from.

"Oh my! get out of class is finally over! Oh my god!"

Zhang Fei couldn't help but let out a long sigh and waved his hand, saying, "Let's talk about it next class, if there is a next class."

"After class?"

Wang Anshi was stunned and said, "Brother, I haven't even finished warming up yet."

Everyone was also confused.

What class is next?

Is this still class?

Seeing Wang Anshi taking action, everyone was looking forward to a wonderful debate. Where do you want to escape?

Zhao Xu was also enjoying what he was hearing, and this question was also the answer he was looking for: Is the Legalist school of thought desirable? The key point was that Zhang Fei's remarks were unique, eye-opening, and thought-provoking. He hurriedly said, "Wait a minute before leaving class. Many questions have not been clarified yet."

Ask civil servants to work overtime? What are you thinking? Zhang Fei shook his head and said, "If I go back to the government, this won't work."

".?"

Zhao Xu was stunned.

Don't you even give me face?

You are really drifting away, boy!

Zhang Fei said seriously, "Your Majesty, this is a law class, and we must follow the rules. If we don't follow the rules in class, the students we teach will definitely be unruly. If they enforce the law, they will bend the law for personal gain every day! Besides, there is too much content in this class. Please read them, Your Majesty!"

He pointed at the students and said, "Everyone looks confused. If I continue, they will only become more confused. It will be useless."

Ye Zuqia was unconvinced and said, "We are confused because you didn't explain it clearly."

Zhang Fei asked back: "Then tell me, according to the principle of the rule of law, should this lesson be given or not?"

"Of course not." Ye Zuqia said seriously: "As a teacher, you should focus on teaching first. How can you leave before the problem is explained clearly? This is irresponsible."

Zhang Fei laughed when he heard this. "Hey, what are you talking about? What you said proves that you didn't listen at all. Or maybe you were listening seriously but you were just too stupid to understand."

Ye Zuqia frowned and said, "It's obvious that you didn't explain it clearly."

Zhang Fei chuckled: "According to what you said, if I am a teacher, I must teach first. If I am digging a canal, I must keep digging until the canal is completed. I must dig every day without stopping. Either I succeed or I die."

Ye Zuqia snorted, "You are just making up stories."

"Fraudulent argument?" Zhang Fei smiled and asked, "Let me ask you, have I been late? Have I left early? Neither, then is it my legitimate right to rest during the stipulated time? Is this a widely held consensus? From the government to the common people, everyone has stipulated rest time.

When I defend my legitimate rights and interests, am I abiding by the principles of the rule of law?

Of course, I can continue, but with your character, it is really boring for me to teach you. If Guan Jia and Fu Gong were not here to help you answer a few questions, it would be boring to death. I guess I would have let you study on your own a long time ago. "

After all this fighting, Ye Zuqia's tears were welling up in his eyes.

This self-esteem was completely shattered.

But I don’t know how to refute it. This legal system is really life-threatening!

It's simply perverted.

There was no way out, it was his fault for offending Zhang Fei.

Wang Wenshan was even driven out of the capital by him, and before leaving, he was threatened by him. If he knew that he was an official, he would be unable to sleep!

Wang Anshi suddenly said: "You just said that Confucianism should be the main approach nowadays!"

"Well."

Zhang Fei was speechless for a moment.

The person standing here is either the emperor or the prime minister.

Who the hell would talk about rights and interests with you, a person below the ninth rank.

Stop talking!

Just work overtime for me!

Zhao Xu saw that the boy was really unwilling to continue, and he had indeed talked too much, so he said, "Forget it! Forget it! Let's end the get out of class. If I let you talk for another quarter of an hour, I would feel that I have committed a heinous crime."

"Thank you for your understanding, sir."

Zhang Fei quickly bowed and said, "I'll take my leave now."

Zhao Xu suddenly corrected him: "You are an official now, not a commoner."

"Ah? Oh."

Zhang Fei raised his hand awkwardly: "Then can I apply for a transfer?"

Zhao Xu chuckled twice, then said seriously: "Don't even think about it."

"yes."

Zhang Fei bowed, glanced at Ye Zuqia, and whispered, "If I were you, I would never come to this law school to attend classes. What kind of teacher is this? He is a scoundrel with no teacher ethics. He doesn't teach the class, but only knows how to humiliate you. Nine times out of ten, he will delay your future."

The tone was a mixture of disgust and pleading.

This really hits me straight in the heart!

Shouldn't we dislike you?

How come it turns out that you despise us?

That's so fucking insulting.

Seeing that the boy had escaped, Wang Anshi was unwilling to accept it and said to Zhao Xu: "Sir, this issue has not been resolved yet, why did you let the boy go?"

Zhao Xu smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, he is right. Too much has been said in this class, and it is hard to digest. Look at these students."

When Wang Anshi saw those students, some of them really covered their faces and choked with sobs.

A child of destiny has never suffered such a blow.

The key point is that there is no such teacher in the world!

He has a very poisonous tongue.

Not to mention that we are the chosen ones, we are not treated as human beings.

"It's really useless."

Wang Anshi looked at them with contempt and thought, they don’t understand, but I do!

Zhao Xu seemed to see what he was thinking, and said, "Although I know you must have understood, but everyone is confused. If we continue the debate, everyone will be less confused. But don't worry, Zhang San can't escape."

Wang Anshi felt a little better, but he also had to consider other people's feelings.

After all, everyone's IQ is different.
