Repent how to hold the reins of power
The first law of the book How to Seize the Power Never shine brighter than the master
Verdict: Always make those above you feel comfortably superior, and in your desire to please and impress them, do not go too far in displaying your talents, otherwise you may achieve the opposite, i.e. arouse fear and insecurity. Make your masters appear brighter than they are, and you will reach the heights of power.

Power law:
Everyone has fears, and when you expose yourself to the world and reveal your talents it's natural to stir up all kinds of discontent, envy and other insecurities. You should expect that, but you can't spend your life worrying about other people's little feelings.
When it comes to power, outshining the master is perhaps the worst mistake of all. This also happened with the Finance Minister of King Louis
It is a mistake to think that by displaying your talents and flaunting them, you will win the affections of the master.
If your ideas are more creative than your master's, attribute them to him in a way that makes them public.
Never imagine that you can do whatever you want because the Master loves you. In Japan, one of Emperor Hideyoshi's advisors was confident of his position, forgetting that his position depended on the Emperor, and he paid with his life for it. Never take your position or position for granted.

The second law of the book How to Gain Power: Do not put too much trust in friends and learn how to use enemies

Verdict: Be careful of friends, they will betray you kind of faster because they are easily provoked into envy. They also become corrupt and become tyrants. But hire an enemy and you will find that he becomes more loyal than a friend, because he has a lot to prove. In fact, he has more to fear from friends than enemies. If you do not have enemies, find a way to gain enemies.

Power law:
Emperor Michael III mortgaged his future with a feeling of gratitude to his friend Basil, who saved his life. After granting power, Basil turned against him and took power from him. Mikael did not realize that the friend might betray.
Friends often hide things to avoid conflict, keep friends for friendship's sake, but work with skilled and competent people. Your enemies are a gold mine, and you must learn how to exploit them. It is better to know who and where your opponents are than not to know where your real enemies lie.
The problem with working with friends is the confusion between boundaries and distances that work requires. You must not let your guard down, as nothing is stable in the field of power.

The third law from the book How to Seize Power: Hide your intentions

Verdict: Keep people off balance and in the dark after revealing the purpose behind your actions, because if they have no indication of your intentions, they can't mount a defense.
Let them go so far down the wrong road, and surround them with enough smoke, that it will be too late when they realize your intentions.
