Is it to stick to morals or to defend justice?

Seeing a great god interpreting the background history of the movie, the Sultan should be regarded as a Mingjun. Let me put aside the historical facts and explain my point of view only from the content of the movie. Welcome friends to discuss together.

The King of Sultan in the film is an ambitious and unethical tyrant. He is the villain of the film, while the King of Shutor represents the righteous. In the film, the king of Shutor had many opportunities to kill the Sultan, but in order to stick to his morals, he gave up the opportunity and chose to solo in front of him, but was shot to death by his opponent's dark arrow. This reminds me of Song Xianggong in the Spring and Autumn Period, who resolutely defended "benevolence and justice", but was defeated by his own "benevolence and justice." Although Song Xianggong was given a seat in the five tyrants of the Spring and Autumn Period in history, his pedantry has also been passed on for thousands of years.

This makes people think, which one should justice and morality be pursued? Starting from the Warring States period in Chinese history, "intelligence" and "art of war" have been promoted more. As long as the methods that can take advantage of warfare, commanders praised them. Just like Li Yunlong said to the troops when he was instructing the troops in "Bright Sword": "I don't care how I fight in battles, touch camps, ambush, dig traps, sap, kidnap tickets, anyway, as long as you confront devil and traitor, what do you like to do." Speaking of the war of resistance. , I believe that many friends remember that in the Anti-Japanese War movie, when the Eighth Route Army fought hand-to-hand with Japanese soldiers, Japanese troops would withdraw bullets. Some people say this is the spirit of Bushido, but actually it is more to prevent accidental injury to their own people in the battle. However, according to the situation at the time, the Chinese troops were far inferior to Japan in terms of equipment and individual combat capabilities. If no small measures were used, it is estimated that the GCD troops would have been exhausted long ago. Back in modern society, when parents educate their children, they hope that their children will be honest. This is a moral teaching; but in real life, blindly insisting on this kind of morality will definitely be calculated by people with ulterior motives. Therefore, I often hear media propaganda or parents teaching a sentence that is "it is okay to lie to bad guys." Look, it can be seen from this that when people now weigh morality and justice, more often they can temporarily give up moral constraints. This is a problem of social orientation, and social orientation is also affected by the human environment. Two thousand years ago, Confucius was able to put forward the "Great Harmony Society", also based on the humanistic environment of the society at that time as a starting point.

From the current point of view, it is unrealistic to return to the era when the whole people uphold morality, but we still hope to maintain the social moral system as much as possible while ensuring our own safety. This requires the efforts of the whole society.
