Stick education is counterproductive.

Emperor Yuwen Yong of Zhou Wu can be regarded as a generation of male lords, who took the throne at the age of seventeen and endured under the dictatorship of the powerful ministers for more than ten years to regain power. During his reign, he made great efforts to govern, conquered the east and the west, destroyed Northern Qi, unified the copyright of most of China, and laid the foundation for the sui and Tang dynasties.

But such an emperor was a failure in educating his children.

His eldest son, Yuwen Yun, does not like to study, likes to drink and be beautiful, and has fun all day. Yuwen Yong saw this and strictly disciplined his son.

Yuwen Yong asked the crown prince, like the chancellor, to go up to the court to see the recital. No matter what the situation, you must not be late, otherwise you will be severely reprimanded and served with sticks.

Once Yuwen Yun captured two white deer and offered them to Yuwen Yong, saying that it was a good omen. Yuwen Yong rebuked him, saying, "The key to ruling the world lies in having virtue, not in having auspiciousness." "There are no affirmations, only blows.

Yuwen Yong sent his son to patrol the western lands, Yuwen Yun only played with his favorite courtiers, and handed over the right things to others, and Yuwen Yong knew about it and punished almost all of his son's subordinate officials.

The crown prince liked to drink, and Yuwen Yong directly ordered that it was forbidden to send wine to the tai womb. He also sent someone to spy on his son and invade his son's privacy. He was often threatened: "The ancient prince has been deposed a lot, can't I set up someone else?" ”

This kind of disciplinary education did not teach Yuwen Yun to be a qualified prince, but on the contrary, let Yuwen Yun disguise himself as if he were in line with his father's wishes, and continue to do business behind his back.

After Yuwen Yong's death, Yuwen Yun clapped his hands happily and said, "This old thing is finally dead." "He took all his father's concubines into his harem, and he also established five empresses at once." His father's decree was strict, but he did not do so, abolished his father's law, and the society was in chaos, and seeing this, he formulated a severe punishment law. His ministers came to him, and if he was not satisfied, he would serve with a stick.

Yuwen Yun died at the age of 22 due to excessive indulgence. After his death, Northern Zhou was usurped by Yang Jian.

I think education should be reasonable and emotional, tell them the meaning of doing things, and change their cognition, rather than using coercive measures.
