Later, it was pointed out that it would be revealed sooner or later if there was no real talent to fill the ranks of experts or put inferior things into high-quality things.

Mix bad things with good things to make up for it. It is emphasized that individuals should study hard and practice hard in order to have real talents and practical learning.

Brief introduction of the author

Han Fei (280 BC-233 BC) was a nobleman in South Korea, who was "fond of learning the name of criminal demons" and later called him Han Feizi. He and Reese are both disciples of Xunzi. At that time, South Korea was very weak and was often bullied by neighboring countries. He repeatedly put forward plans for prosperity to the king of South Korea, but they were not adopted by the king of South Korea. Han Fei wrote a series of articles, such as Lonely Anger and Five Cheats, and was later included in a book, Han Feizi. Ying Zheng, King of Qin, read Han Fei's article and praised it. In 234 BC, Han Fei came to Qin as an envoy of South Korea and wrote a letter to the king of Qin, urging him to attack Zhao first and slow down Korea. Reese was jealous of Han Fei's talent and tried to frame him with Yao Jia. Han Fei was forced to commit suicide by taking poison.

Han Fei pays attention to the study of history and thinks that history is constantly developing and progressing. He believes that if today's world is still praising "the Tao of Yao, Shun, Tang and Wu", "it will be a smile of the new saints". Therefore, he advocated "repairing the ancient times unexpectedly", "the world is different" and "things are different" ("Everything is wrong?" We should make policies according to the actual situation today. His view of history provided a theoretical basis for the reform of the landlord class at that time.

Han Fei inherited and summarized the thoughts and practices of legalists in the Warring States period, and put forward the theory of absolute monarchy and centralization. He advocated that "things are in the quartet and in the central government; The saints insist on it, and the four sides come to work "("Everything is wrong? Property rights "), the power of the state should be concentrated in the hands of the monarch ("saint "), and the monarch must have the power and influence to govern the world. "Lord of a thousand riders, king of a thousand riders, so those who control the world, levy governors, with their rights" ("everything is done wrong?" Human democracy). To this end, you mainly use various means to get rid of hereditary slave owners and nobles, "disperse their party" and "seize their auxiliary" ("Everything goes wrong? "The Road"); At the same time, select a group of feudal officials who have been trained by practice to replace them. "The prime minister from the state department, Athens to send pawn" ("everything wrong? Fairy snow "). Han Fei also advocated reform and the implementation of the rule of law, demanding "abolishing the teaching of the former king" ("Han Feizi? Ask Tian), "teach by law" ("everything is wrong? Five cockroaches "). He stressed that when a "law" is formulated, it must be strictly enforced, and no one can be an exception, so that "the law is not expensive" and "I don't avoid officials after punishment, and I don't leave anything behind" ("Han Feizi? Have a degree "). He also believes that only by imposing severe punishment can people obey, society be stable and feudal rule be consolidated. These propositions of Han Fei reflected the interests and demands of the emerging feudal landlord class, and provided a theoretical basis for ending the vassal regime and establishing a unified centralized feudal country. After Qin Shihuang unified China, many political measures were the application and development of Han Fei's theory.

Mr. Nanguo, who can't play the flute, pretended to make up the numbers in a band of 300 people and even got paid. Once he wanted to play alone with his real skills, Mr. Nan Guo had to run away. This fable is a metaphor for people who have no real talent and learning to fill in the blanks among experts or fill in the blanks with bad things in good deeds. Mr. Nanguo has also become synonymous with those who make up the numbers.

For thousands of years, people have been telling the story of "making up for mistakes". Chu Shi in the south was cheated for a while, but not for life. It is emphasized that individuals should study hard and practice hard in order to have real talents and practical learning.
