B. A writer in the 500s B.C

Laozi, also spelled as Lao Tzu, is a legendary figure who is credited as the author of the "Tao Te Ching," a foundational text of Taoism (Daoism). He is considered to be the father of Taoist philosophy and is traditionally thought to have lived in the 6th century B.C., although exact historical details about his life remain a matter of scholarly debate. Laozi is not associated with legalism, was not the son of Confucius, and was not a leader of legalists.
