There is such a saying that Fei Qian often heard in later generations.

"When an avalanche occurs, no snowflake is innocent."

It sounds reasonable and is often used in various aspects, but in fact this sentence is a bowl of poisonous chicken soup.

The literal meaning of this sentence is: a catastrophic avalanche is caused by all the snowflakes, so every snowflake is inseparable and is responsible for the result.

But in fact, most people who say this sentence don't know what the original text is, or even what deviations occurred in the translation process of this sentence, and this kind of deviation is called adulteration.

"smuggled goods".

Some people say that this sentence was said by Voltaire, but it is not true.

The original author of this sentence is the Polish poet Stanislaw.

The literal meaning of the original text is, "When there is an avalanche, there is not a single snowflake, so I feel that I am responsible."

I don’t know if you can feel the difference between the two sentences. The former sentence is a moral judgment from above, while the latter sentence is a narration of events.

Snowflake, do you really have to take responsibility for the avalanche?

And still "no one is innocent"?!

Snowflakes fall randomly, and they cannot control their own destiny. Some snowflakes fall on the fields, nourishing the fields, and turn into rivers. Some snowflakes fall on the hillsides, accumulating thicker and eventually causing avalanches.

, swallowed everything.

And then say that all snowflakes must bear the responsibility for the avalanche?

Those behind the scenes who designate snowflakes to fall on a certain article area intentionally or unintentionally, those media guides who use snowflakes to gain attention and traffic, those who fan the flames to push the first snowball down from the top of the mountain or fire the first shot.

Those who spread rumors, these guys spread their hands after the avalanche, just like other "snowflakes", indicating that "in an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent?"

In fact, the implication is that the "snowflakes" really want to get to the root of the problem?

Know that "no snowflake is innocent"!

Look at your own sin!

Just like some religions, they say that people are born with original sin, karma, etc. It almost means the same thing. Since everyone is guilty, it also means that everyone is innocent, or guilty when there is a need to be guilty, and not guilty.

when there is no guilt.

In this way, the thinking about the source, the incident, and the avalanche can be extinguished, leaving only a high-level accusation, with at most a vague sigh, and then the responsibilities are evenly divided, no more, no less.

Spread it on every "snowflake", pat your butt, and go looking for the next avalanche feast.

It's like after some major events, someone always comes out to take the blame, either as a temporary worker or as a minion, and then stops tracing and thinking about the source.

Therefore, it is indeed good to use the sentence "No snowflake is innocent in an avalanche" as a wake-up call for oneself and as one's own moral self-discipline. However, if it is just to attract attention or shirk responsibility, keep this sentence on your lips.

On the other side, there are snowflakes who accuse this or that every day...

That would be meaningless.

It's like the present moment.

Pei Yuan's incident can be regarded as a moderate "avalanche" incident.

If we follow what Wei Duan means, "Snowflake" doesn't have much ability. This avalanche incident happened by chance, and it didn't cause much damage. It's generally negligible. Let's just drink and dance, and we'll be done with it together.

, and for Sima Yi, he emphasized that "no snowflake is innocent", indicating that a strict investigation is needed, and it is best to weigh all the "snowflakes"!

Regardless of the reasons behind Wei Duan and Sima Yi's suggestions, this is generally the superficial understanding.

Being driven by interests will obviously point to interests, but being driven by morality does not mean that it will point to morality.

In the current political structure and social system, it is destined and must be a two-pronged approach.

Moral standards are not what Wei Duan and Sima Yi have to worry about, nor can they be established by these two people. Fei Qian summoned the two people here because he actually wanted them to find "Pei Yuan" based on the incident.

"Avalanche" channel, or find a way to deal with avalanche events.

But Fei Qian now discovered that these two people seemed to be somewhat different from what he thought.

Fei Qian glanced at Wei Duan, turned to look at Sima Yi, and said, "The Master said, "There are different ways, and we don't want to work together." Everyone follows their own aspirations. Therefore, "Wealth and honor can be sought, even if you hold a whip.

Scholars, I will do the same. If you can't ask for it, do what I like." "When the years are cold, you will know that the pines and cypresses will wither." The world is turbid, and the pure people will see it. How can it be as important as that, or as light as this?

』

"I wonder what Zhongda thinks of what Tai Shigong said?"

Sima Yi took a slight breath, and then said with a normal expression, "What my lord said is true. Only when the years are cold will you know that the pines and cypresses will wither, and only when you are in trouble will you know the kindness of people's hearts."

After Fei Qian pointed out Sima Yi's question first, he continued slowly: "When people live in the world, they should follow the way of heaven and earth. The way of heaven has not been stated, but all things can live, why? It can be said that the officials of the four seasons

, supported by the five elements, if you go with them, you will live, if you go against them, you will perish."

"The Great Han Dynasty established three ministers and nine ministers, local counties and counties, local village elders, and large and small officials, all in order to ensure the smooth life of all people. This is the "way of heaven" for officials and assistants."

"What should we do with the officials? Maybe the people are not at peace, so how can we take care of them? Or the barbarians are not attached, so how can we defeat them? Or the war has not stopped, so how can we eliminate them? Or the fields are too many and barren, how can we clear them up? Or there are wise men in the field, what can we do?

If they advance or establish a dynasty with sycophants, how can they be denounced..."

"If there is disharmony among the six qi, and disasters are coming, you should think about how to avoid them, and how to deal with them. If there are five punishments that are not dealt with, and deception occurs every day, you should think about how to repair them and how to deal with them. I am worried about the worries of the head of Guizhou and the suffering of the people.

The reason for suffering is to take the celery from the countryside and offer it in front of the steps of the court hall. If this is the case, it will be a salary of thousands of stones and a salary of ten thousand yuan, which is also appropriate."

What Fei Qian said was of course extremely correct. Even if anyone came here, they would not be able to fault him. Wei Duan and Sima Yi who were present naturally nodded one after another, indicating that what the lord said was inspiring and golden.

So much...

Fei Qian did not continue, but continued: "However, there are also officials and assistants who hold important positions. Some have unresolved personal vendettas and want to expel them. Or old favors have not been repaid and they want to honor them. Or their children have treasures and silks. Why do they get them? Or

How can you take chariots, horses, and utensils for fun? How can you seize them if a traitor takes advantage of them? How can you depose an upright man if he resists..."

"If there are three times when a disaster is reported and the country is worried, then craft clever words to shirk it. The officials will play tricks and the people's resentment is overwhelming. Then use flattery to deceive them. The heart is about money, and you want power and harm.

The people under your jurisdiction are in vain for the kindness of the court. If you do this, you will be in the last position and do false things, which cannot be tolerated."

"You must know that the fate of a country, the fate of a county, and the lives of a county all hang in the hands of officials. How can we be careless?"

The following words are naturally wrong.

Wei Duan and Sima Yi also nodded, expressing their lord's wisdom.

In fact, Fei Qian has been catching up on the matter of officials very early on. However, this matter is just like the situation in later generations. It is not a separate law or a period of arrest, which will lead to long-term peace and stability and no future troubles.

Rather, it requires constant regulation, constant updating, and constant keeping up with the development of new situations.

Just like Fei Qian first implemented the "Corruption Law" in Guanzhong Sanfu, it only focused on corruption. There were three corruption projects with relatively heavy punishments, but it did not stop the desire of these officials to succeed one after another.

Later, Feiqian added an item of malfeasance on the basis of the "Law of Corruption", refined the specific items, covered as many aspects as possible, and combined them to form the current "Law of Corruption"

…

But it is obvious that the "Law of Corruption" cannot keep up with the new changes.

In the "Law of Corruption and Malfeasance", corruption refers to embezzlement of public funds, and malfeasance refers to dereliction of official duties. But like Pei Yuan, if we say he embezzled public funds, he does not count because he only received a lot of private money.

He has no qualifications to embezzle public funds in the Senate, nor does he have much money to embezzle. If you say he is derelict in his duties, he is not considered one, because he is just bragging and others think he can do it. In the end, he received a lot of money and failed.

manage……

Therefore, there is no suitable charge for using the "Law of Corruption and Malfeasance" on Pei Yuan.

Different eras have different situations. Of course, in later generations, this kind of behavior is a major economic fraud, but the problem is that in the Han Dynasty, there was no such crime...

It can even be said that this type of fraud is not a serious crime in the current understanding of the Han Dynasty, and it may not even be considered a crime. The intrigues in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period can even be regarded as classics by the children of the gentry.

For example, returning the jade to Zhao intact.

If someone has been defrauded, there is no point in looking for squandering in the current situation. No one will fight for the injustice and recover the losses, because this means that the person who was defrauded is mentally retarded, incompetent and short-sighted. So if Fei Qian said that he would help these deceived people,

Pei Yuan deceived the nobles to recover the defrauded money, and then accused Pei Yuan of his character, which is simply not true!

In the current social perception of the Han Dynasty, although Pei Yuan's actions were morally wrong, they were not considered a big deal. They would even become Pei Yuan's meritorious deeds and be praised by the Shandong nobles!

Right, how stupid are the gentry sons of Sanfu in Guanzhong, who and so and so, how and how they were easily deceived, and carried them to the bed and performed seventeen or eighteen postures. When they talk about it, they must be filled with laughter and applause. It’s like

In later generations, a lot of "Friends from Fanbang" posted on a certain website and it was like hundreds of people killed thousands of people. From the perspective of Fanbang, they were heroes! I don't know how many people would leave comments under their posts asking for help from brothers.

Therefore, Fei Qian could neither say that he agreed with Wei Duan's way of turning big things into trivial matters, nor could he adopt Sima Yi's model of making a fuss out of molehills and stirring up trouble. Instead, he took this opportunity to put forward a new standard and a new question...

What is Li Zuo?

What about Li Zuo?

Just like the sentence at the beginning, is it more interesting to blame all the snowflakes from above, or is it more meaningful to stand among the snowflakes and consider why such a problem occurs?

"Since both of you agree with this theory..." Fei Qian smiled, "Wei Yuanzheng is responsible for drafting the laws and regulations related to the evaluation of officials and assistants, and Sima Qing is responsible for verifying those who have served in recent years and resigned without reason. Is this against the rules?"

An act of responsibility... take this opportunity to correct the conduct of officials..."

Fei Qian simply took a different approach and started from the responsibilities of being an official. He did not say whether Pei Yuan was a fraud or not, nor did he say what his personal moral character was. He just said that when you become an official, you should behave like an official, and that's how he should be.

What shouldn't be the case, and then let Wei Duan designate legal orders based on the approved conclusion, and then let Sima Yi track down these officials, including Pei Yuan, who have resigned or fled recently. Such a move is undoubtedly a higher priority.

A fixed point in the dimension struck...

……(o′?□?`o)……

When Fei Qian was looking for Wei Duan and Sima Yi to inquire about relevant matters, Zhao Yun, who was far away in the desert, also encountered some new situations.
To be continued...
