During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, a hundred schools of thought contended, which was the most prosperous academic dispute in history. Of course, Confucius, as the founder of Confucianism, is also essential. In order to make other countries agree with their own ideas and adopt Confucian ideas, Confucius began to travel around the world. But we should know that the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period are an out-of-touch era. At that time, in order to compete for territory, expand rights and compete for hegemony, various governors needed ideas that could make them stronger and bigger. However, the Confucian idea of emphasizing harmony did not apply in that bonfire era, so countries did not adopt Confucius' academic ideas. Speaking of this, Confucius traveled around the world without Qin, but the result was just the opposite. Not only did he not visit Qin, but he also blacklisted Qin directly.
Speaking of why Confucius didn't visit Qin, let's start with their personal requirements! First of all, Confucius is a scholar. Because he is a scholar, he is gentle in speech and manners. Qin was influenced by the northern climate since childhood, and some of them were five big and three thick. One is polite and the other is informal. He likes the feeling of freedom. Then his character must be disharmonious; Secondly, not everyone talks all the time, so Qin and Confucius have different views on the world. Even if Confucius visits Qin, homesickness will not be reused. Finally: since you despise me, I despise you. Who's afraid of who? So from then on, Confucius and Qin pulled down the ditch.
This knife cuts bread and fingers. With so many ideas, a hundred schools of thought contend. There must be something I love. Taoist thought is to pursue letting nature take its course; If we let go, it will all be over. It's no use! Confucianism attaches importance to harmony. In this era, it is a big deal to save your own life, and it is even more impossible to value harmony. Mohist thought is to love and not attack; Mom, I don't even love myself, let alone others! No, these ideas are not strong! Isn't there a legalist school? Look, the combination of magic and potential, advocating the law, is quite good! This can't improve the social order to a certain extent, but it also helps me to complete my dream of a unified empire. So there was Shang Yang's political reform, and Qin gradually became stronger. Tactically, they adopted the strategy of uniting Lian Heng, eliminating the vassal states and unifying the world.
