The hexagram-records and line statements of Ge diagrams are important resource of revolution ideology in ancient China.It askes revolutions to comply the heaven's order and people's want.Besides,it teaches gentlemen to take actions by time,which is different from understandings of revolution in western revolution theory.Opposite with "ruin the whole ancient system,Wang Chuanshan's understanding about revolution is back to the heaven's law,and "time" becomes the core of revolution,which means that "time" not only teaches gentlemen how to recognize the timing about revolution,but also teaches gentlemen take revolution by time."Ge Ming" means the changing about superstructure or ruler,but there isn't any relation between those two."Ge Ming" was understood a cure to save human society against the wrong direction which opposite of the heaven's law,it's unsure that “Ge Ming” means ultimate value in theory of evolution.The leader of revolution must be the gentlemen who have noble character,but not ordinary civilian.It is necessary to follow the trend of historical development in the exercise of the Gertrude,because it is sometimes determined by the system,which can be customized without selfish interests.The idea of the "revolution" of the Wang Chuanshan shows his understanding of the ideal political system of the ancient Chinese "heaven-king-civilian".On the one hand,the value of political system comes from the observation of "heaven",rather than the result of man's own creation;On the other hand,people have the subjective initiative,can change the heaven rules into human rules.Kings must observe the heavens and teach the people,and observe the people and know the heavens,and make the profit and loss of the people by the righteousness of the world and not the personal desires of some people.The ideal constitutional system of Wang Chuanshan's philosophy is the combination with the limited decentralization of monarchical power and the heavy public opinion but not the indoctrination.
