Why did Han Feizi say that Confucianism uses literature to mess with the law, and chivalry uses mar

Because Han Feizi advocated that the country should be governed by law and the education of etiquette, but Confucianism pursued etiquette too much and ignored the law, and chivalry advocated force too much and ignored the edifying role of etiquette, so Han Feizi said this.

This sentence comes from Sima Qian's "Preface to the Biography of the Rangers", which means that Confucians use articles to disturb the laws of the state, and chivalrous people use violence to violate the country's prohibitions. Han Feizi, as a representative figure of Legalist thought, advocates the rule of law, and believes that literati sell literature and ink, and martial arts use violence as the best, which are all behaviors that disrupt the law.

Literati and chivalrous people always feel that they are superior to others, so literati always use their pens to disrupt order, and chivalrous people always violate the law with violence. Han Feizi is a representative of Legalism and attaches great importance to the legal order, so he especially dislikes literati and chivalrous, believing that the social order is destroyed by these people.

Confucianism uses literature to disrupt the law, and chivalry violates the prohibition with force" means that Confucianism relies on literature to disturb the legal system of the state, and chivalry relies on force to break the country's prohibition. This sentence comes from Sima Qian's "Biography of the Ranger Column", not what Han Feizi said, and Han Feizi also insisted on this point of view, this is because Han Zifei is a representative of the Legalists, and he stands on the position of the law to speculate like this, and adheres to the ideology of "governing the country according to law", which is not surprising.

Han Feizi insisted on "Confucianism uses literature to mess with the law, and chivalry uses martial arts to violate the ban", which is actually promoting his own literary ideas in disguise. "Confucianism" is the core value of Confucius, and Han Feizi is actually openly opposing Confucius, the representative of Confucianism. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, wars broke out frequently, but there was a situation where a hundred schools of thought contended.

This is because the war broke the monopoly of the aristocracy on culture, and multifaceted cultural ideas continued to penetrate into the grassroots people from all aspects and angles.

Han Feizi is one of the more mainstream schools. In fact, from a dialectical point of view, Han Feizi's point of view is half right and half wrong. Because not all Confucians and civil officials will use literature to disrupt the law, and not all chivalrous people will only use violence.

At that time, the frequent wars led to paralysis, and all the regimes were not established, so bandits from all directions came out from time to time to make trouble, and the people also complained bitterly, and some chivalrous people would fight for Hu Wudou, in fact, this is an act of eliminating harm for the people, not a harm to the country.

In all dynasties, there are rules for not killing officials, because only when all aspects of the opinions are put forward will a relatively well-thought-out decision be made, and if you close your eyes and listen, then it will lead to the king becoming a frog at the bottom of the well. So from many perspectives, Han Feizi's point of view is not valid. And the reason why Han Feizi insists on such a point of view is not because he really thinks that some behaviors are extreme and wrong, but such behaviors are obviously contrary to his theoretical views on trouser grinding, so he wants to deny it, so as to promote his own culture, which is his real purpose.

Original text] Confucianism is used to disrupt the law, and chivalry is forbidden by martial arts.

Translation] The scholar bends the song by understanding the text of the burial of the Zheng (exploits loopholes) to disturb the rules, and the chivalrous warrior uses his martial arts to hurt the rules and beat the hail.

Chivalry is forbidden by force, and Confucianism is used to disrupt the law, which means that Confucianism uses literature to disrupt the law and order, and rangers use force to violate the ban. And the monarch has to be courteous, and this is the source of the chaos in the country. From Han Feizi's "Five Anvils".

Because throughout the ages, if literati and warriors wanted to resist or disturb the law, they had to use what they were good at to do it. Ancient chivalrous people were people who knew martial arts, and used their advantage to do things that others did not dare to do. Like the Chen Sheng and Wu Guang uprisings, as the peasant class was oppressed by the landlord class, they rose up and began to resist, relying on force.
