Abstract：The academic criticism of Taoism in the pre-Qin period began from Laozi's criticism of Confucius and Yang Zhu. Laozi mainly criticized Confucius' idea of “propriety” and “benevolence and righteousness”， while Yang Zhu's idea of “self-confident” and his pursuit of “the rule of the wise monarch”. After Laozi， Yang Zhu once criticized Mozi's core values such as “universal love”， “upholding virtue”， “reverence ghost” and “negative fate”. Huazi， who belongs to Yang Zhu school， made a two-way sublation of various views and behaviors of “six desires are not appropriate” in the society at that time， while Zhan He gave full play to Yang Zhu's theory of “for me” and “for yourself”. Both Zhuangzi and Zhuangzi's posterities gave academic criticism on the pre-Qin scholars. The latter scholars of Zhuangzi， represented by Wei Mou， thought that Zhuangzi's learning was as great as the East China Sea， while Gong Sunlong and others were like frogs in a well. The latter scholars of Zhuangzi， represented by “the chapter of the world”， criticized all of the pre-Qin schools， which all have “advantages and practicality” and were “non-universal”. The academic criticism of “Ji-xia academy of Huang Lao school” was represented by Shen Dao， Tian Pian and Guanzi. Shen Dao inherited Laozi's view of nature and developed towards legalism.
