In this video, we explore the complex concept of revenge in Chinese culture, analyzing the conflicting views of Confucianism and Legalism. Confucianism emphasizes familial loyalty and the duty of revenge, while Legalism focuses on social order and believes revenge should be handled by public authority. Through historical examples like the Yang Qiu case in the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Shijianqiao case in the Republic of China, we reveal the moral and legal dilemmas surrounding revenge across different social contexts. We also delve into the "external Confucianism, internal Legalism" tradition and how this shaped China's political landscape and its value system.https://youtu.be/-TFdjq3DdpM
