Xunzi's ideological proposition:
Xunzi is a master of Confucianism. He developed Confucianism while absorbing the legalist theory. He respects the king and also dominates power; Advocating etiquette and justice, but also stressing the rule of law; At the same time, it advocates that "the law is king." Mencius founded the theory of good nature, emphasizing self-cultivation; Xunzi's theory of evil nature emphasizes acquired learning. All these show that he is different from the direct Confucianism. He also put forward some simple materialistic views, such as man can conquer nature, oppose fatalism, and everything changes according to the laws of nature.
