Legalists'relationship between the king and Tao is that while Tao has demonstration, specifications and evaluation role, the king should abide by Tao, and that, therefore, the king who understands Tao is the wise king. From the relationship between king and Tao in Legalists' wisdom theory, we can see that Legalists advocate Great Wisdom. The wisdom thoughts are as follows: The king should keep void and peace and be free from any desires of love and hate, keep an objective and calm political mind. Thus, he can become a political person with great wisdom, and, by relying on shi(power), fa(law) and shu(tactics), leads the society into an ideal one conforming with Tao. In this ideal society, any interference of personal feelings in politics is objected. This shows that Legalists'wisdom theory is utopia, because it is impossible for the king with absolute power to understand Tao and abide by the law.%在法家那里，君道关系显示为：道对君有论证、规范和评判作用，君则应以道为依归，故而只有“体道”之君才是明君。以君道关系为视角，将法家“智”论的探讨聚焦于君主之“智”可知，法家主张“大智”。这种大智表现为，君主“去好去恶”“虚静”，保持客观冷静的政治头脑，从而成为一个颇富政治理性的政治人，进而合乎“道”地运用势、法和术，最终臻于一种合乎“道”的社会。这一理想社会反对任何私人感情对政治的干扰。可是法家大智论只是一种空想，因为拥有绝对权力的君主体道和守法几乎不可能。
