As we all know, Shang Martin's change of law made the Qin state gradually stronger from a weak and small country, and laid the foundation for the great unification of the later Qin Shi Huang. We also know that Shang Martin is not an old Qin, he came to the Qin State after seeing Qin Xiaogong's "Recruitment Order". Prior to this, due to the isolation of the Qin State by the other six countries, few people from various countries had a deep understanding of the Qin State, and Shang Martingale was the same, even if he could not stay in the Wei State at that time, he did not think of going to the Qin State to develop.
When he was in the State of Wei, he was the Zhongshuzi under the Uncle of the Duke of Wei, what did the Zhongshuzi do? In fact, even if the beggar study room sorts out the books. He was a very small official, and Shang Martin was a petty official for five years. Five years later, uncle Gong's health was getting worse and worse, so he repeatedly recommended Shang Martin to King Hui of Wei, hoping that Shang Martin would take his place in the future, but unfortunately King Hui of Wei did not adopt it. When his uncle was critically ill with acne, he last recommended Shang Martingale to King Hui of Wei, and that is, this time Uncle Gong told King Wei that if he did not use Shang Martingale, then kill him.
After King Wei Hui left, Uncle Gong let Shang Martin go, saying that he had just let King Wei kill him. At this time, Shang Martin was very calm, he said that he was not in a hurry, and he would not worry about his life, and since King Wei Hui did not listen to your uncle Cheng Xiang's words and used me, he would not listen to your words and kill me.
At this time, Shang Martin made the first big bet of his life: Would King Wei Hui really not kill him? Even if King Wei Hui himself did not have the heart to kill him, perhaps someone around King Wei Hui regarded Shang Martingale as a great talent, and out of jealousy, he blew the wind on the king, and he Shang Martin would be unable to protect himself. It is not that at this time, Shang Martin is just a small middle man, no one will hurt him, he is the future candidate recommended by Gong Xiang Gong Shu many times, and Gong Gong Gong's "Xiang Ren Ability" is famous, and bao Qi someone has harmed Shang Martin for the position of Xiang Xiang.

After Shang Martin came to the Qin Kingdom, he met a person, who was also a great contributor to the Shang Martingale Transformation Law, after all, he had introduced Shang Martin three times to The Duke of Filial Piety, and he was the favorite JingJian of Qin Xiaogong's side.
Unlike other you scholars, Shang Martin summed up the lessons of the failure of the previous countries to change the law, believing that if the change of law is to succeed, the monarch must first fully support the change and must unswervingly adhere to the change. How can we know if the monarch will be able to support his own change of law? You have to test him. Therefore, at this time, it is not only a question of Qin Xiaogong not using Shang Martingale, but also a question of whether Shang Martin is willing to be used by Qin Xiaogong, which is a two-way choice between monarchs and courtiers.
When Shang Martin first met Qin Xiaogong, he talked about the "royal way", saying that he wanted filial piety to obey the etiquette system and cultivate himself, and he moved the Confucian set to talk about it. Xiao Gong listened to the drowsiness, and after Shang Martin left, Xiao Gong angrily rebuked Jing Jian. However, the anger of filial piety is completely understandable, you said that this person is a great ruler, I took the time to see him, I did not expect to be a pedantic Confucian.
However, soon Jingjian introduced Shang Martin for the second time for Xiao Gong. The second time Shang Martin saw Xiao Gong, he did not talk about the "royal way" and began to talk about the "imperial way". Talking about the common way of the five emperors: While cultivating morality, we can do some legal system construction, pay attention to ourselves, and social welfare is secondary. This time, Xiao Gong fell asleep listening to it. After waking up, he scolded Jing Jian again, and at this time, Jing Jian himself began to doubt whether Shang Martin was really a straw bag. However, when Shang Martin proposed that he should see Xiao Gong again, Jing Jian held on to his last hope and agreed to introduce Shang Martin for the last time.
The last time Shang Martin threw aside the "Royal Dao" and the "Imperial Dao", he talked about "hegemony", that is, changing the law and trying to be strong, and then let the Qin State out of the world. This time, Xiao Gong listened attentively, and then had a long talk with Shang Martin. In the end, Xiao Gong appointed Shang Martin to implement the change law, and the Qin state began to change from weak to strong.
This was Shang Martin's second big bet, and if XiaoGong was interested in the "Wang Dao" and "Emperor Dao" in front of him, he would leave. After all, inferior jade can't appreciate it, so how to appreciate beautiful jade? Therefore, Shang Martin is gambling, betting that Xiaogong is a clever "jade appreciator", betting that he can stay, betting that he can complete his ambition. As it turned out, he had won the bet again.

Whether the change will succeed is uncertain, because there will be too many small episodes in the middle. Just like when he encounters a prince breaking the law on the way to change the law, how should Shang Martin deal with it? After all, the crown prince was a prince and young, so he could not punish him too much; but after the implementation of the law, he was no longer "unable to punish the doctor". What should I do? Since the prince could not be punished, the two teachers of the prince were punished. The crown prince's uncle and filial brother Gongzi Qian (公子虔) was sentenced to death; another of the prince's teachers, Gongsun Jia, was exiled. Although this move gave a wake-up call to the upper echelons of the Qin state, it was too offensive. Gongzi Qian was the trusted elder brother of Qin Xiaogong, and he also had prestige in the army, and after Qin Xiaogong succeeded to the throne, he also eliminated many problems for Qin Xiaogong; the most important point is that Gongzi Qian, like Qin Xiaogong, the ultimate goal is to hope that the Qin state will become stronger, so at the beginning Gongzi Qian also supported the change of law. Although this punishment of Gongzi Qian gave the aristocratic class a wake-up call, it also lost The friend of Gongzi Qian.
Fortunately, Shang Martin's change of law was not terminated because the prince broke the law. However, raising soldiers for a thousand days will eventually be the time to use soldiers. The success of the change must be able to withstand the test, and only by passing the test can it be proved that Shang Martin's change method is really the strategy that makes the Qin state strong. How is it detected? In the world of great strife, the struggle is for strength, and the most direct proof of a country's strength is even a war. Many years after the change of law, there was a war between the Qin state and the Wei state, in fact, this war could only be won and could not be defeated for the Qin state and for the Shang martingale.
This is the third big bet of Shang Martingale, how effective the change is, whether it is successful or not depends on this battle. In order to win this war, Shang Martin tricked the Wei commander Gongzi Jie into the Qin army, causing the Wei army to lose its commander, thus increasing the chances of victory for the Qin army. Just as Shang Martin wanted to see the result, the war was won, which showed that his change of law was indeed the method of rich countries and strong soldiers. It was also after this battle that Shang Martin was named "Shang Jun", and since then Shang Martin has truly become "Shang Martingale".
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > a bet on survival</h1>
Without an immortal, Qin Xiaogong, who worked hard to rule, finally came to the end of his life. Duke Xiao of Qin died, and the once punished crown prince succeeded to the throne. Shang Martin offended too many people, and he lost his biggest supporter, for a time, the "martingale" banner was all over the court, and Shang Martin had to choose to flee in order to survive.
Shang Martin wanted to live, he really didn't want to die. He was alone when he came to the Qin Kingdom, and now he still has his family behind him, and he doesn't want his family to suffer with him. Yes, he escaped.
On the night of the escape, he was ready to run to an inn, but because he fled in a hurry without relevant documents, the merchants did not dare to take him in, and told him that if he accepted him, he would violate the laws formulated by the Shang Jun, and he would be severely punished. While Shang Martin lamented that the change method was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, he had no choice at the same time.
Shang Martin then fled to the State of Wei, hoping that his former home country would accept him, but he was disappointed again, and the State of Wei did not accept him. He had no choice but to flee back to his fiefdom and organize his soldiers to attack Zheng Guo, and after the defeat of the soldiers, he was killed in Shichi.
In the last bet, he attacked the weak country of Zheng Guo, hoping to gain a foothold. However, he failed, and he was killed in battle during the attack on Zheng Guo, and after his death, he was tortured by car splitting, and his family was also killed.
From Wei Martingale to Shang Martin, from a nameless disciple to a well-known Shang Jun, he used his life to learn to gamble that he could achieve fame, and he won; but, at the time of life and death, his luck seemed to be deprived by heaven, and he lost the last bet. Perhaps heaven sent Shang Martingale to save the Qin State from danger, the Qin State became stronger, his mission was completed, and it didn't matter whether there was Shang Martingale or not. Fortunately, King Huiwen of Qin did not deny the efforts of Shang Martin, and the later generations of the Qin State followed the laws formulated by Shang Martingale and eventually unified the world. From the perspective of Shang Martin himself, this gamble failed, but for the Qin State, this gamble was successful.
