It's scary, the group is actually full of ancient bigwigs

Chapter 46 Zhao Kuangyin's Strange Idea
Yue Fei finally got a glimpse of the advantages of the Song Dynasty in the group, he was excited.

loyalty-

"Everyone, please don't change the subject, let Su Xi praise the Song Dynasty."

"The history of later generations that I have learned recently is all kinds of black."

"I feel bad."

Yue Fei, who was resting during the rapid march, said excitedly.

He was so excited.

As a person from the Song Dynasty, even though he is a general, but he lives in the Song Dynasty, he also wants to hear others talk about the Song Dynasty.

Just as Su Xi was about to continue talking, she saw Yue Fei swiping the screen excitedly and pleading with others, hoping they would not change the topic.

It was only then that Su Xi realized that Uncle Yue Fei had been so angry, no wonder he didn't see him speak often.

I will not change history—

"Su Xi, let's boast, and we also want to know the details of the more than [-] literati and soldiers accompanying the emperor to jump into the sea."

Li Shimin is quite curious about this, really.

He felt that even if he died, no one would voluntarily bury him.

What's more, there are as many as more than [-].

Prime Minister of Shu—

"Su Xi, tell me, I really want to know."

"I doubt that even Emperor Xiandi of the Han Dynasty would jump into the sea to commit suicide and no one would follow him. Everyone's more choice should be to support a bloodline of the Liu family again."

Zhuge Liang was really shocked.

More than [-] people were buried together, which is a great shock.

And he was the last emperor, and he was still a child.

They can understand if a person is buried with him.

It is not unacceptable to be buried with hundreds of people.

But more than [-] people were buried together, and they jumped into the sea, which is shocking.

Rich playboy-

"Please tell me, what a shocking thing this is."

Huo Qubing was dumbfounded when he heard it just now.

He had seen living people being buried, and that was an act of crazy resistance.

It turned out that someone voluntarily died for the funeral, which was too terrifying and frightening.

Prime Minister of Shu—

"Could it be that Song has won the hearts of the people to such an extent?"

Zhuge Liang sighed faintly.

Didn't you always say that the Song Dynasty was particularly cowardly?

He didn't understand why so many people were still buried.

Su Xi went back, put on the earphones, and said quietly: "I won't explain the specifics of the Battle of Yashan. Anyway, we were defeated, so let's talk about the spirit of it."

Everyone moved the small stools, took out melon and fruit drinks, and was ready to listen to Su Xi's storytelling.

"After the defeat in the Battle of Yashan, Lu Xiufu carried the little emperor on his back, and brought the remnants of the defeated soldiers and the most precious things of the Song Dynasty, a group of real Confucian scholars, to the seaside."

"In the face of the ferocious Mongols, Lu Xiufu jumped into the sea as a young emperor in order to preserve the last dignity of the Song Dynasty royal family."

"Those true great Confucians, that is, people with guaranteed moral character and ability, they also left with Lu Xiufu."

"Some of the remnants of the defeated generals chose to continue fighting, and they wanted to take a Mongol away before they died."

"There are still some people who have lost their combat effectiveness also choose to jump into the sea."

"It was also this jump that completely lost the splendid Central Plains culture."

"This is something that future generations respect and criticize."

"However, it was precisely this jump that Lu Xiufu preserved the dignity of the royal family of the Song Dynasty and the dignity of the Han people."

Everyone in the chat group was in awe.

Dignity is really important.

"This jump made everyone see the backbone of the Han people."

"It was also this jump that frightened the Mongols so much that they didn't cover it up, but actually recorded it."

"Afterwards, Wen Tianxiang, another Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty, insisted on resisting the Mongols, and finally faced all kinds of temptations from the Mongols, and chose the backbone to die."

After talking about the preface, Su Xi drank her saliva and began to explain the key points.

"And an important factor that caused literati to be willing to die was the system of the Song Dynasty."

"That's what we said before that the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats share the world."

Here comes the important point, everyone is ready to record.

To be honest, they are really curious, this system allows cunning literati to choose to die with the emperor?
Really too curious.

Including Zhu Yuanzhang, he is also very curious, he has been fighting wits with literati.

Su Xi hesitated for a moment, but still spoke out her guess.

"We all know that since ancient times, the imperial power has never been truly independent, and the emperors share the world with the people."

Everyone in the chat group nodded in agreement, yes, that's it, everyone knows this.

"In the Qin Dynasty, the imperial power and nobles shared the world."

"The Han Dynasty was a time when imperial power and aristocratic families shared the world."

"From the Jin Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, the imperial power and powerful families shared the world."

"And the clan itself evolved from the nobles of the former Qin Dynasty and the aristocratic families of the Han Dynasty."

Everyone nodded again, yes, that's it.

"And we Huaxia have always been hard-working people, and we will learn from history."

"The founding emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin, and his boss, Chai Rong, can be regarded as the ultimate embodiment of the military system and land equalization system of the Tang Dynasty, closing in the remnants of the nobles."

"Especially Zhao Kuangyin, he was dressed in the royal robes of his soldiers, so he had to fight back."

"After becoming emperor, Zhao Kuangyin began to learn from the experience of the previous dynasty. Anyway, he wants to share the world, so he can choose one himself. Anyway, he can't share the world with those powerful people. It's too pitiful."

Li Shimin's face is black, and they in the Tang Dynasty shared the world with the powerful.

"Coupled with the development of the imperial examination system in the Tang Dynasty and papermaking, there are already a group of scholars among the people."

"Finally, Zhao Kuangyin himself is considered to be the remnant force of closing up the nobles, so naturally he will not choose to close up the nobles."

"If you don't choose to close the nobles, you will naturally suppress the generals, and you will have the power to release your troops with a glass of wine."

"The suspicious Zhao Kuangyin would not choose to trust the literati completely, because the literati have many eyes."

"In this way, Zhao Kuangyin created a system of redundant officials."

Zhao Kuangyin can really think.

This is what everyone thinks.

This man is really toxic.

"Afterwards, under the wheel of history, Zhao Kuangyin joined forces with the scholar-officials to jointly suppress the elites and regain the right to education and the right to select officials."

"After choosing to share the world with scholar-bureaucrats, Zhao Kuangyin once praised Confucius in order to regain the right to choose officials."

"Three thousand disciples who mainly play Confucius, there is no distinction between teaching and learning."

"Next, we will want to open academies."

"Coupled with the maturity of papermaking and printing, the gatekeepers are swept into the dustbin of history."

Ruthless.

This man is so cruel.

"Once again, Zhao Kuangyin lowered the status of the soldiers, and the soldiers usurped the country in the province."

"Slowly, a strange situation like the Song Dynasty appeared."

"In order to make the scholar-bureaucrats rise, Zhao Kuangyin gave the scholar-bureaucrats the privilege of whipping the imperial power, criticizing current affairs, and exercising their own rights."

"The scholar-bureaucrats at the beginning were all capable, and many of them rose from the bottom. They will naturally reform some good policies."

"With the support of Zhao Kuangyin, people's livelihood in the Song Dynasty developed rapidly."

I will not change history—

"It's just a virtuous circle of dynasty replacement."

"It will be the same for any force."

Li Shimin felt uncomfortable and said sourly.

His family is one of the aristocratic families, and when he heard that the aristocrats were swept into history, a feeling of sadness came to his heart.
