King Qin is a tragic hero who advances the times, but is also coerced by the times

The turn of the plot is accompanied by a sentence "You think of a person simply", King Qin said that Wuming thought of himself simple, and Wuming said that King Qin thought of the sword to be simple.

Because people can't be so simple, they added 100 million details and 100 million reversals to the story of the assassin.

The correction added by the King of Qin was to be lenient, that is, by denying that Canjian and Feixue would hurt each other due to possessiveness, they dismantled the nameless narration, and used reason to infer their intentions and decisions.

The correction added by Wuming was to be merciful. Wuming told King Qin that although they all seemed to be working tirelessly for the assassination, in fact, Can Xue had a heart for the world, and King Qin’s lucky survival three years ago was entirely Can Xue’s realm too high. .

But is Can Xue really too high? Did King Qin really understand the word "sword"? Should King Qin kill Wuming?

Canxue's ambition is that the people live and work in peace and contentment, and there will be no more killings.

The strongest country at that time was Qin, because Qin had Shang Yang's reform, legalist thought, advanced weapons, and the ambition to unify China.

It seems reasonable to let the King of Qin live for the unification of the six kingdoms, but the unification of the six kingdoms by the Qin State means that the people live and work in peace and contentment, and there will be no more killings? The laws of the Qin state are extremely harsh, and they punish the people mercilessly. Chen She and Wu Guang will be beheaded just because it rains too late to do things in the assigned place. Is this peace?

Can Xue thought that Qin had the violent ability to unify the six countries, but he did not expect that Qin did not have the moral ability to govern the six countries. Of course, we can't blame Can Xue for not thinking of such an ending, but what Can Xue should know is that the rule of law should be used together with the rule of virtue. After Wuming hoped that the King of Qin was touched by himself, he still ushered in a thousand arrows piercing his heart.

So did King Qin understand Can Xue's "sword"? Rather than saying that the meaning is in a stroke, it is better to say that the King of Qin is speculating on Can Xue's intentions. Although the King of Qin knew that Can Xue wanted peace in the world, the King of Qin didn't know how Can Xue wanted to achieve peace in the world at first.

The first realm is "a sword in your hand and a sword in your heart". King Qin's army is powerful, like a martial arts master.

The second realm is "there is no sword in the hand and there is a sword in the heart". Although the King of Qin has not yet invaded the city, the people of the Six Kingdoms are already trembling and trembling all day long, like a strong man who can win without fighting.

The third realm is "no sword in hand, no sword in heart". Although King Qin makes people feel scared, if King Qin is willing to put down his weapons, it is enough to maintain peace, like a saint.

King Qin must have realized the truth here, but his image is already a tyrant, just like a character, if he breaks his image, he will be betrayed by the world.

King Qin didn't want to let Wuming go, but King Qin couldn't. This is the helplessness of King Qin, and this is also the tragedy of King Qin as a hero.
