There have been many studies on the Tao Te Ching,but there are few analysts who analyze the theorists from the perspective of “Wang Dao”.The "Wang Dao" thought contained in the Tao Te Ching has much contribution to the rulers of later generations.It has similarities with the "Wang Dao" thought in Mencius.The spirit of humanistic care is the same.They have the same wish to settle their happiness.However,the system of the “Wang Dao” is different.The "Wang Dao" in "Mengzi" implements "benevolence" and is supplemented by "ritual","good","filial piety" and "righteousness";"Wang Dao" in Tao Te Ching "Implement "the rule of doing nothing",and use "Pak","Calm","Widowedness" and "No Disputes" to assist.With the reference to the "Wang Dao" in Mencius,the study of the "Wang Dao" thought in Tao Te Ching can enrich the connotation of Lao Tzu's concept of governing the country,broaden the horizon of Lao Tzu's research,and deeply elucidate the spirit of Lao Tzu's humanistic care,and rule over the dynasties.The implementation of the "king of the king" measures to conduct a deeper exploration.This thesis will discuss from four parts,using the research methods of definition,classification,synthesis,analysis,reasoning and contrast to study the "Wang Dao" in Tao Te Ching.In the first part,through the analysis and combing of the social background,origin and connotation of Mencius' s "Wang Dao" thought,the elements and cores of Mencius' "Wang Dao" thought are extracted,and the study of "Wang Dao" thought in Tao Te Ching Make a reference.The second part is the concrete manifestation of the "Wang Dao" ideology of Tao Te Ching.The core and premise of the "Wang Dao" thought is the humanistic care contained in its text;the image of "sage" is the closest to Laozi's "Wang Dao" The ideal ruling party of thought is the main body of "Wang Dao" implementation;the microscopic aspect of "Wang Dao" ruling the country can be roughly analyzed from the four aspects of "economics","criminal law","military" and "culture";the macroscopic view of "Wang Dao" in terms of aspects,it can be analyzed and elaborated from the three aspects of “doing nothing”,“disputed virtue” and “unknown and simple rule”,and it echoes the micro-level measures of state management.The third part,through the study of the similarities and differences between the "Wang Dao" thoughts of Mencius,highlights the characteristics and uniqueness of the "Wang Dao" thought in Tao Te Ching,mainly from the "image of governing the country","governing measures" and "humanistic care" Aspects for comparative research.The fourth part clarifies the characteristics and significance of the "Wang Dao" thought in Tao Te Ching.The "Wang Dao" thought has uniqueness and ideality.The uniqueness is determined by the characteristics of "Dao" and the command of "Wang Dao".Ideality It runs through all aspects of the "Wang Dao" thought;the "Wang Dao" thought can be practised from the "Rise of Wenjing" and "Rise of Zhenguan" in the application of the evolution of later generations,and gradually develops into a kind of looseness in later generations.The recuperation policy provides a reference for future generations of rulers.
