In the 24th year of Qin Xiaogong (338 BC), a group of people were watching a special criminal law.
Some people in the crowd cheered, some insulted, some clapped their hands and applauded, but few people sighed regret.
The protagonist of the criminal law is in the prison car, bound by the iron chains he invented, and he cannot move, this person is Shang Martin!
The execution ground was set up, Leng Sen was ready for the knife and axe man, and the five horses were in place, just waiting for the rope to be put on the place where the set was.
At this time, the tortured Shang Martin did not change his true colors, but coldly smiled at his servant's hand and tied up the pain of death.
The nephew's palm was terrified and itched to leave, only the executioner said proudly.
Shang Jun, these five horses are divided into corpses, but you set it.
The sound of punishment was high, and the carriage began to move in different directions, and the piercing pain was only a moment, and the tear was completed.
Is the end of criminal law, the fragmentation of a violent era over?
No, no, the Qin state continued, they armed themselves with these fragmented people, the extreme thoughts in their heads, and finally succeeded.
Shang Martin became the only reformer in history who died and survived.

How fate should be judged, some people say that the coffin is conclusive, and after the conclusion, some of them have been passed down through the ages, and some have been left behind for thousands of years.
This is undoubtedly ironic and contradictory for Shang Martin, everyone knows that he is right, and they all hate him and fear him even more.
Fame in the world may not be a great man, and slander in the world may not be a hometown wish
Descendants of shang martingale, the descendant of the king of the Wei state, the surname of Ji is Gongsun, so the surname can be known to be related to the ancient Yellow Emperor and even Zhou Tianzi, but this ancestor has nothing to do with Shang martingale.
Zu Shangze, three generations passed away, Shang Martin did not catch up with the good time, but also let his starting point is very low, the book has not been read seriously, can only rub lessons everywhere, fortunately, Lu Guo corpse (hundred family corpses), gave him enlightenment, or this Shang Martin is estimated to be illiterate, this life.
Shang Martin, who was enlightened by the corpse, was not willing to be subordinated, self-taught, and after learning and succeeding, ran to the development of the Wei state.
In Wei Drift's life, Shang Martin had good luck and became an aide to Xiang Guo's uncle, and incidentally gained the first Bole in his life. In his spare time, Shang Martin also continued to study the documents of Li Wu, the forerunner of the Wei State Transformation Law.
But this peaceful day did not last long, and uncle's illness changed Shang Martin's life.
The seriously ill uncle Acne did not forget Shang Martingale, but instead recommended his own wizards to King Hui of Wei.
After some conversation, Uncle Gong strongly recommended that Wei Huiwang, not impressed, could not talk together at all.
In the end, the angry and corrupt uncle Said: This person is proficient in governing the country, and he is deeply known as the true transmission of famous teachers, and the king will use it to be heavy, and if he does not use it, he will kill it, and he must not be returned to another country. The angry King Hui of Wei was dismissive of Lao Xiangguo's words, and forgot to turn around in person.
After King Wei Hui left, Uncle Gong summoned Shang Martin and told him to leave quickly, and said that he wanted King Wei to kill him.
So the public and private are clearly distinguished, the public is the State of Wei, and the private is the old Xiangguo Gong Uncle of friendship.
At that moment, it was undoubtedly respectable, but Shang Martin was smarter, and instead said, King Wei would not kill me, and the teacher was assured.
Successful people have their own reasons, perhaps at this time when they are not afraid of danger.

After he went to the mountain, King Hui of Wei ignored his love, and after Shang Martin was depressed, he thought, he can't live with Wei Guo for a lifetime.
I heard that Qin Xiao was just in recruiting talents and scholars, and even said: "Those who plan for me to strengthen Qin, respect their officials, and divide their land." ”
Good fellow, filial piety is powerful, Wei Huiwang is pie, and filial piety is pie, which makes Shang Martin have a strong contrast in his heart.
Give the official land, you can still exert your talents, at this time do not go to stay longer?
In the face of the Wei kingdom that grew up and studied, Shang Martin did not have any nostalgia, but immediately packed up the six volumes of the "Book of Law" and left.
After several months of wandering, he finally came to the poor and remote Qin State, a Shang Martin who was well versed in personnel affairs, and as soon as he arrived in the Qin Kingdom, he immediately made some connections, and through the recommendation of his friend Meng Langao, he met The King of Qin's favorite minister Jingjian.
So all the way under the green light, I successfully met Qin Xiaogong.
This proves that there are no acquaintances in the office, and you are waiting to eat the closed door soup.

If the opportunity comes, how do you seize it without talent?
Shang Martin and Xiao Gong met, it was a twist and turn!
For Qin Xiaogong, who was striving to govern, pragmatic talents were most needed, and Shang Martin came to several debates with Qin Xiaogong in order to verify his judgment.
The first time: The martingale went straight to the subject. kingcraft.
Duke Qin, the Prince of Zhongzheng, the shortest road that takes time, a hundred years of strong country, can make the world surrender, but not as prominent as the Emperor Dao, do you want to listen?
Qin Xiaogong listened and was a little dissatisfied.
Fifty years of life are like a dream, there is so much time to wait, but the cultivation of the emperor, let him listen patiently for half a day, and finally really can't stand it, simply snor.
That means, you are a fake, go quickly, I did not have the kung fu to take care of you, and afterwards scolded the recommender Jing Jian.
Who is this goods, talk about the king's way, everyone needs him to come, what I want is to fight the world, invincible elite soldiers, the world of great strife, the king's way is not successful, the Qin kingdom will be destroyed by Wei, Zhen Nyima is blind!
The scolded Jing Jian was also dissatisfied, and fiercely counted the Shang Martingale, only to see the Shang Martingale say indifferently.
Don't worry buddy, I know what to say next time, next time say hegemony, the royal way for a hundred years, hegemony for ten years, twenty years of success.
Jing Jian looked at it, this brother would not be bragging, but he still reported qin Xiaogong, saying that Shang Martin could strengthen the country for ten years. This filial piety has come to the spirit, there is this way why not say it earlier, the reader is pretending.
I wanted to see it again, and finally I didn't have the embarrassment of the last time, from one side drowsy, one side gushing endlessly, into Shang Martin said, Qin Xiaogong asked.
It was so, it was so, very good, countless very good. This pair of CP combinations, more and more have a sense of seeing each other and hating the night, and they did not eat or sleep and talked for three days and three nights.
Finally, Shang Martin was successful, and Qin Xiaogong also found Daxian.
(like a fish in the water)

Pragmatic people, the most jealous of false words, for the filial piety who is committed to a strong country, there is a reason to wait with great talent.
In 387 BC, a conference was held to determine the fate of the Qin state for more than a hundred years, and the shang martingale of the reformist faction sat down with the conservative ministers Gan Long and Du Zhi as a guest secretary. After the fierce debate, the Qin state began to change the law, and the shang martingale also became the left chief of the Qin state.
The official title of filial piety came true, and the Shang martingale also had a place to play, and when the Qin state began the first round of changes in the law, the specific measures were mainly only five.
First: Implement the "sitting-together method" to tie the people of the whole country together.
Second: The compulsory implementation of the system of individual small family labor production.
Third: Abolish the aristocratic patriarchal system and the hierarchical succession system, and reform the old aristocratic orders.
Fourth: The inheritance system of the old nobility, the change of the military merit reward system, and the prohibition of private fighting.
Fifth: Reward farming and weaving, and attach importance to agricultural production.
Such five measures, step by step, let the Qin State enter a new era from the chaotic era, and the Qin State only does two things in this era.
Ploughing- War: Ploughing is grain, war is military strength, no matter what else, meritorious service is rewarded, good grain planting is also rewarded, and nothing more.
The State of Qin thus changed from a normal state to a war machine.
Ten years later, the change of law was initially completed, and the Qin army's combat strength was gradually improved and victorious, and Shang Martin also relied on this merit to promote "Daliangzao" in 352 BC and then presided over the subsequent second round of change.
This time, Shang Martin unceremoniously declared war on all the old nobles.
First of all: abolish well fields, open up strange land, recognize private land ownership, and liberate productive forces.
Second: the implementation of the county system, the Qin divided into 41 counties, strengthen the centralization of power.
Again: unified weights and measures, so that the Qin military economy integration.
Finally: make strict laws and make them public, becoming the norms of all Qin people.
After a round of reforms, the Qin state eventually became the most advanced, efficient and scientific country of the Warring States system.
There is no need for culture, no need for commerce, only farming.

In the face of a powerful enemy, in addition to strength, but also cunning.
In the early hundred years of the Warring States period, the strongest country was undoubtedly the State of Wei, which occupied the Central Plains and the rich side!
The elite martial pawns have not tasted defeat in the world, and the old Qin people who fought lost hexi and lost battles continuously, if not, how can they wake up the Qin state?
The powerful Qin state, of course, wants revenge, and the dispute between Qin and Wei is inevitable. This time, it was not the old Qin who was in charge, but the Shang martingale, who was famous for reforming and changing the law.
The old Qin Kingdom, who had never known how to fight hard, finally saw the role of cunning and wisdom.
Prince Ang of the State of Wei led 200,000 troops against Shangmartin against Hexi, and the war was about to break out. Gongzi Ang, who obeyed the rules of war, received a letter from Shang Martin in front of the two armies, and the letter went up to the clouds.
"In the past, he and his sons were friendly, but now they are their masters, and the soldiers and soldiers can't bear to see each other, so why not put aside wine and sing and sing an alliance between the two countries."
Gongzi Ang read the letter from his old friend, believed it to be true, and despite the opposition of the generals, went to the camp of the Qin army. When drinking wine and drinking, Shang Martin suddenly attacked, killed Gongzi Ang's men, and captured Gongzi Ang.
After a feast at the Hongmen Gate, the Qin army picked up the guys and came to a surprise attack, shouting while raiding, "Gongzi Ang was killed, and Qin was spared death!"
This was the inability to exhaust the three armies, and the prince who despised the enemy and missed the old feelings became a tragedy, and also caused heavy losses to the State of Wei.
When the King of Wei heard that the front line was completely destroyed, he regretted it too late and vomited blood and fell unconscious.
The first sentence of waking up makes people sigh a thousand times: "The widow hates not to use the words of uncle acne!"
The Shang martingale who defeated his mortal enemy wei was thus enshrined as a god and became the most beautiful figure in the qin state.

Forgetfulness applies to everyone, because tomorrow and accidents, you don't know which one comes first,
Governing the government reform and strengthening the country, the leader is invincible, and Shang Martin is a little distracted for a while, and then he is crazy.
After he went crazy, countless clan magnates in the Qin Kingdom hated the itchy teeth he hated, and if it were not for filial piety, Shang Martin would probably be drowned by saliva and insults.
Everyone dared to be angry, they were waiting, waiting for the final outbreak, this no, the opportunity that everyone was waiting for came.
In 338 BC, the 45-year-old Qin Xiaogong was seriously ill, and when he was seriously ill, Qin Xiaogong still remembered Shang Martingale and said to him.
Shangjun Qiang Qin has merit, I once said, not only let you be promoted, but also let you have a fief, now you are a great liangzao, no official can be promoted, and the Shangjun also has a fief, but I still feel that it is not enough, or you will be the king of Qin, right?
How similar is this set of roads to Liu Beituo's loneliness back then? Unfortunately, the people entrusted by Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, and Shang Martin were completely different.
(The Words of Filial Piety on The Verge of Death)
Zhuge Liang bowed to the high wind and bright festival, and Shang Martingale strictly enforced the law and flew high.
The same is resolute, one can govern, while the other is embarrassed, either plotting rebellion or waiting for death.
Sure enough, as soon as King Huiwen of Qin, who succeeded to the throne, came to power, he released the opponents of shangmartin, the prince of the clan who had been closed for eight years.
After being released, King Huiwen of Qin, who had gained the loyalty of the conservatives, began to act, encouraging Gongzi Qian to order liquidation on the grounds that Shang Martin was called "widowed" in the south, had the heart of disobedience, and plotted rebellion! Poor ShangMartin, who invaded the government and the opposition, after learning the news, was anxious like a dog that lost his family, pretending to be a civilian husband to flee From Hangu Pass, even though he knew that under Hangu Pass, he was blocked because of dark, and he had no choice but to stay, but he was harassed because of a small voucher.
And this requires vouchers to stay, it is the rules he set, this is the present world.
Shang Martin, who continued to flee, fled to the State of Wei, but also because of the act of the villain, he deceived Gongzi Ang and was not tolerated by Wei, and could only flee to the fief shangyu.
The shang martingale, who was hiding in Shangyu, dodged the wind, but did not wait for the atonement document, and could only rebel and fight to the death. In the end, he was suppressed by his sworn enemy Gongzi Qian, and he himself was also captured, becoming the one who was dismembered under the five horses.

The legendary life, from the cold family to the self-taught talent, finally experienced hardships, achieved himself, but also achieved the Qin Kingdom. Why did it end up like this? Is it really because of the fate of the reformers who must die?
In fact, it is biased to say this, because the problems of the martingale itself are very big.
As far as the legal system is concerned: the law of the Shang Emperor can be described as torture, even inhumane, and for the opposition, it is all a net.
Not only that, but they also made a big fuss and executed many people for breaking the law, from the powerful to the commoners, who would like torturers?
Personality: Shang Martin is an extreme secularist who does everything in his power to accomplish his ambitions and goals.
Under this system, in order to get the highest title, there must be battle merit, in order to achieve military merit, Shang Martin can betray his faith in the war, use the reason as a reason to deceive Gongzi Ang, and finally be promoted to the fourth rank by virtue of his military merit. Although the way of war does not ask whether it is right or wrong, but this title is taken with a bad heart, ah, such a thing, Shang Martin can do a lot.
As for other acts of violence, it is even more, turning a normal country into a war machine is indeed good for the Qin State, but will those who really live in such a country enjoy it?
"Insider knife and saw, external armor soldiers" A country that is violent at home and violent to the outside, is willing to kill, how can it make the subjects really return to their hearts?
(The Law of the Shang King is famous for its violence)
From this point of view, although shang martingale is legendary, it has many problems, and the high-pressure policy of "burning poetry book" is coordinated with the system of mixed violence between internal and external violence.
The rapid and powerful State of Qin came from this, and its rapid destruction also came from this, and it also laid the curse of death for itself.
I can't complain about others, I can only say that it is the need of the times.
If an era makes people have no bottom line, it is never people's fault, but the fault of the times...
History has a public opinion, and the law of the Shang Emperor is famous for its violence
