  Han Feizi
Han Feizi explains that the relative power of various rulers may be partly determined by the relative effectiveness with which they are able to reward ministers or subjects who comply with their authority.
Han Feizi also explains that a wise and prudent ruler will rectify laws so that they clearly specify the penalties which are to be imposed on individuals who disobey the ruler’s commands and on individuals who do not comply with the ruler's authority.
Han Feizi’s explanation of the applications of civil authority and of the uses of political power may be criticized for attempting to justify authoritarianism and totalitarianism.

 The Confucius - Han Fei Tzu Question by Aurpon Bhattacharya
Han Fei Tzu was a prince, born into a noble family.
Han Fei Tzu’s sage (who would also be the ruler, quite like Plato’s Philosopher King) would reject tradition and legends of antiquity since those were outdated and would not fit into the modern scheme of things.
Here Han Fei Tzu puts great stress on how cautious a ruler should be and how he should guard himself against everyone at all times and take great care to hide all his decisions until the last moment.

 The Grand Councillor
Han Fei had abandoned his Confucian studies and taken up Legalism because it was simply more practical and germane to the times: the end of the 'Warring States' period.
The Legalist doctrine of Han Fei and Li Ssu is in marked contrast to that of their mutual Confucian teacher, Hsun Tzu, who has been mistakenly identified as the "father of Legalism", an absurd identification in terms of overall doctrine: if anything, Hsun Tzu was the father of his stiffest opposition.
Han Fei was fond of Taoism and incorporated it into his Legalist doctrine: "By virtue of resting empty and reposed, (the ruler) waits for the course of nature to enforce itself so that all names will be defined of themselves and all affairs will be settled of themselves.

 Han FeiZi - would he have served Ying Zheng? - China History Forum, chinese history forum
Usually considered as one of the most brilliant minds of the era, Han Fei was a scion of the ruling dynasty of the State of Han, which was probably the weakest and most vulnerable of the Seven Mighty States of the Warring States Era.
Han Fei was a proponent of the Legalism, a school of thought which advocated stringent controls with comprehensive rules, enforced by severe punishments with some reward system as encouragements, ruling by law without consideration to personal station in life.
Han Fei was underappreciated by his own ruling house, but he was not a mercenary like Li Si, and he was at the Qin court primarily as a representative for the interests of his native state.

 246BC Han Fei Tzu
Han Fei was a prince who's' family was located in the small state of Han in Central China.
From the logicians came the work of Han Fei for the term hsing-ming - literally "forms and names." The members of this philosophy called the School of Names believed in the problem of semantics.
For Han Fei, concerned with Laws and policies, he took a less esoteric stance on the term and used to mean that a man's position and title, along with his duties, should correspond with the meanings of the words used to describe them.

Legalist writers, to the contrary, emphasized law as governmenst formulative force and advocated a radical restructuring of society in ways that were totally rational and up-to-date.

Eventually the writings of Han Fei came to the attention of the young king of Qin, who began ruling in 246 BC and went on to become the founding Emperor of the Qin dynasty, Shi Huang Di.
So Han Fei sent a written memorial in which he acknowledged the perpendicular alliance formed from a north-south line of countries against the western power of Qin; but he argued that they were weak and likely to run away in a confrontation, because they have no faith in rewards and punishments.
Han Fei, unable to communicate with the king, drank it and died in 233 BC.

 On Two Ancient Chinese Administrative Ideas: Rule of Virtue and Rule by Law
Han Fei's attitude towards human nature is quite different to that of Confucius, and he claimed that human nature is bad and that every individual thirsts for fame and gain, riches and honour, ease and comfort, and wants to free himself or herself from poverty and destitution, suffering and toil.(9)
Han Fei held that law must be made to regulate the granting of rewards and the imposition of penalties.(11) In order to maintain social justice, Han Fei deemed that law must be the criterion of mass conduct and the tool for rulers to assess the merits of their subordinates.
Although Han Fei recommended that the government should rule by law, which seems impartial, he advocated that the law be enacted by the lords solely.

The Qin were so successful that by 221 BCE they had conquered the other Chinese states and unified the empire after centuries of war.
Han Fei-tzu had studied under the Confucian scholar Hsun-tzu and became the major theorist of the Legalist school.
Confucian scholars vigorously denounced his teachings in all subsequent generations; yet his harsh pragmatism, often compared to that of Machiavelli and Kautilya, more accurately explains the actions of many rulers than does the idealistic Confucian model.
