Tell me about Mencius in your mind in concise language.

Mencius in my mind is like this. Mencius studied literature and martial arts all his life, kept a low profile, and sought "benevolent government" when he was not in office, showing his broad mind of taking the world as his own responsibility. However, in the Warring States period, the idea of "benevolence" governing the country had no social foundation at all. Mencius actively used the world and left a perfect blueprint for governing the country for future generations. His thoughts and ideas can be called "human truth" through the ages. First, the people said that Mencius pointed out: "The people are the most important, the country is the second, and the monarch is the light." He believes that the government should protect the interests of the people, and the monarch should take care of the people as the premise. Therefore, the destiny lies in the heart, not in the monarch. If the monarch has no choice, the people can overthrow him; But if you have a way, the people should stick to their posts. Second, Mencius, the former king of France, advocated benevolent governance, and he must follow the example of the former kings (Yu, Tang, Wen, Wu, and) to govern politics in order to implement benevolent governance in the world. Iii. Benevolent Policy and the King Mencius advocates that benevolent policy must be implemented before it can be implemented. Mencius believed that "people have a heart of forbearance" is a "policy of forbearance", and benevolent governance is a necessary condition for unifying the world. The concrete manifestation of benevolent government is kingliness, which makes people happy, and it is necessary to implement kingliness and "respect the sages and enable them". Fourth, the concept of rule by virtue Confucius' theory of "benevolence" is a conscious morality; Mencius' "benevolence" has both educational functions. The monarch mainly focuses on Xiu De, and virtue is the condition for implementing benevolent policies, so he advocates "the rule of virtue". 5. Opposing Hegemony Mencius advocated the benevolent policy of serving people with virtue and opposed the hegemonism of serving people with force, aiming at alleviating the pain of people's livelihood and easing social contradictions. Therefore, Mencius advocated "kingly politics" and opposed hegemonism to serve the people. Six, restore the mining field system Mencius believes that the ideal economic system is the "mining field system" and "farmland system", that is, the land belongs to the state, and the state grants farmland to the people for cultivation, but the people also have to help cultivate public farmland as a tax. So farmers have "constant production" (constant and fixed cultivated land), and the country will be stable. The influence of Mencius' theory on later generations: 1 Mencius enlightened Neo-Confucianism in the Song and Ming Dynasties and put forward the theory of "inner sage", pointing out that human nature is good, and calling on everyone to expand goodness, restrain material desires and reflect. This method of introspection became the mainstream of Confucianism in later generations. Cheng Hao, Cheng Yi, Lu Jiuyuan, Wang Yangming and other Song and Ming Neo-Confucians all inherited Mencius' theory in this respect. Source: Composition Weekly, Senior Edition
