使百姓安樂,國家安寧。唐初治國方略。唐初,統(tǒng)治集團(tuán)在吸取隋代驟亡教訓(xùn)的基礎(chǔ)上,以儒學(xué)為綱領(lǐng),兼采道家“簡(jiǎn)靜”和“無為”之長(zhǎng),采取了一系列與民休息的政策。這在法律思想上反映為主張禮法結(jié)合,明德慎罰,用法寬仁?!鞍踩藢巼彼枷霝椤柏懹^之治”奠定了基礎(chǔ)。
The term means to give peace and comfort to the people and keep the state at peace. It wasa governing strategy in the early Tang Dynasty. At that time, under the guidelines ofConfucianism, the ruler drew upon the merits of “simplicity and tranquility” and “nonaction”advocated by Daoism, and adopted a series of policies to give the people time torecover in view of lessons learnt from the rapid collapse of the preceding Sui Dynasty. Thecorresponding legal thought advocated the unification of rites and law, illustration of virtueand caution in the use of punishments, and leniency in law enforcement. The concept laidthe foundation for the Golden Era of the Zhenguan Reign.

夫安人寧國,惟在于君。君無為則人樂,君多欲則人苦。(吳兢《貞觀政要·務(wù)農(nóng)》)
(要使人民安樂、國家安寧,關(guān)鍵在于國君。國君能夠無為而治,人民就能安樂;國君貪得無厭,人民就要受苦。)
The key to giving peace and comfort to the people and keeping the state at peace lies withthe ruler. If the ruler rules according to natural laws without unduly interfering, the peoplewill enjoy a peaceful life; however, if the ruler rules out of greed, the people will suffer.(Wu Jing: Important Political Affairs of the Zhenguan Reign)
