However, they will not regard the country as a common threat for the following reasons:
First, the premise of this simulation is that all countries do not reform. As long as one country can successfully reform, the general situation in the world will change.
Secondly, the deduction of the Kyushu copy map completely ignores personal influence, which means that the consequences of the deduction cannot be exactly the same as the actual situation.
Even if we ignore the above two premises, Gan Guo's chances of winning are less than 50%. We just need to be more careful in the future. There is no need to be afraid at all.
Moreover... today's deductions may very likely lead to changes in the country's internal policies. If so, it is still unknown whether it will remain the same as it is today.
Zhao Ji smiled faintly and asked, "Do you have any good ideas for governing the country?"
Zhai Yun looked at Wu Wen, the Mohist master who was sitting on a high seat, and immediately stepped forward: "The Mohist school of thought aims at three things: the prosperity of the country, the multiplication of the people, and the governance of the criminal law and politics. If we govern the country with Mohist teachings, we will surely be able to ensure that the strong will not oppress the weak, the many will not rob the few, the rich will not insult the poor, the noble will not be arrogant to the humble, and the cunning will not deceive the foolish.
At that time, we will take Mohism as the law, square as the ruler, circle as the compass, not be partial to fathers and brothers, not be partial to the rich and powerful, reward the virtuous, punish the violent, kill people and punish those who hurt people, and the world will be in great order!"
Zhao Ji frowned slightly, but still nodded with a faint smile: "The Mohists' good advice is very pleasing to me. However, there is a difference between learning and government affairs. If you firmly believe this, then try to deduce it. Among the elite students today, there are seven Mohists. Master Wu, what do you think..."
Wu Wen was obviously a little upset, but he still maintained his composure: "Mohism will surely be the way to great peace in the world. If all the students in the world follow Mohism, a prosperous era will surely come. In this case, there is no need to waste the opportunity to deduce. Zhai Yun has a high level of comprehension. If the deduction fails after nine attempts, then my Mohist School will withdraw from the deduction!"
This is not being overconfident.
Rather, it is the Mohists' lofty belief in their own doctrine.
He really couldn't think of it, when every student and every official could abide by the Mohist principles and everyone had lofty beliefs, why wouldn't a prosperous era come?
Zhai Yun bowed to Zhao Ji and Wu Wen, then stepped onto the platform.
Zhao Ji smiled and said, "What Wuji said just now has come true. Is there anyone else who can guess the outcome this time?"
Everyone looked at each other in silence.
Even the teachers had complicated expressions.
This kind of thing is not easy to predict.
Ying Wuji's prediction was successful just now. It was due to his real talent and knowledge, but there was also an element of luck.
Moreover, Gongsun Di was too arrogant just now, so it would be feasible to make a harsher prediction.
If it's just an argument, there's no problem.
But if I speak too harshly this time and make a wrong prediction, it would offend people.
Seeing that no one came out, Zhao Ji asked, "Wuji?"
Ying Wuji's mouth twitched: "Father! I am quite familiar with Brother Zhai. Doesn't this make me offend him?"
Offend someone?
What I want is for you to offend people!
Didn’t you see how shiny the jade stones on the chests of those masters were just now?
Zhao Ji smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay! How can differences in academic and political views affect personal relationships? Just speak freely. Mohists are all people of high moral character and will not embarrass you."
Ying Wuji thought about it and decided that since he was going to offend someone today anyway, there was really no need to be both a role model and a jerk.
He stood up and bowed to Zhai Yun and Wu Wen, "Brother Zhai! The Mohist school of thought is truly extremely noble and it is not an exaggeration to call it the best of all schools of thought. However, it is difficult to guess people's selfishness, so I guess that after nine deductions, Mohist school of thought will be ruined by selfishness.
I won’t say more, as saying too much will really offend people. I can only remind Brother Zhai that if you encounter a dilemma, you might as well use selfishness as a way out.
The ten principles of Mohism do not have to be strictly followed, and the Mohist Guild Code is not an iron law.
That’s all I have to say! ”
After saying that, he sat down directly.
Wu Wen rolled his eyes when he heard this. He just wanted to ask this kid, if he doesn't follow the ten principles and the rules of the Mohist Guild, then what kind of Mohist is he?
But think about it, since it is an exchange of academic and political views, this guy speaks so conservatively.
There is really no reason to refute it.
He could only give a wink to Zhai Yun and ask him to start the deduction as soon as possible.
The Mohists present also cast their eyes on Zhai Yun.
The Mohist School has been increasingly marginalized in the courts of various countries, which has really frustrated them. Now that they have the opportunity to deduce, they want to let the world see what kind of prosperity they can create if Mohism becomes the king's school.
Under the gaze of all the Mohists, Zhai Yun nodded, hesitated for a moment between Wu and Yan, and finally chose Yan. These two countries were the most suitable for promoting Mohism, but it was a pity that Wu was too weak.
However, the result of the deduction left all the Mohists dumbfounded.
After Mohism became the state school of the Yan State, the Yan State did develop steadily for a period of time. All the nobles behaved honestly for a long time under the extremely high moral standards. During this period, the government was stable and the people were harmonious. Many suffering people lived a good life.
But the good times didn't last long.
The nobles began to exercise their privileges secretly again, and even after some common people had turned over a new leaf, they were unwilling to continue living those hard days.
The Yan State, which was originally clear and bright, gradually began to become turbulent.
After the Yan and Mohist guilds merged politics and religion, they put great pressure on such phenomena, but the chaos continued to grow like weeds on fertile soil, with another crop growing after another.
Ultimately, the new generation of giants is different from the previous saints.
When the leaders all developed selfish ambitions, the Mohist Guild erupted in huge internal conflicts and eventually collapsed.
This result was unexpected to all Mohists.
After the deduction failed, Zhai Yun was in a daze for a long time. Why was it different from what he had imagined?
