Prime Minister of Great Qin

Chapter 21 The emperor loses his official position and learns from Siyi! (for collection)

The next day.

Ji Heng went to that hut again.

Still the same as before, the wine and meat have already been prepared.

And this time it was two jugs of wine.

"Ji Heng, you asked me to learn about Fenfeng and counties. I have read them in the past few days, and now I should tell you about them."

Hu Haiduan was sitting on the table, his face was not red and his heart was not beating. He did go down to find out, but in fact he just had a look at it, and he didn't think about it.

Ji Heng has been used to it for a long time, and he didn't care at all. He took a sip from the jug, moistened his throat, and said, "I'm not in a hurry to talk about enfeoffment and counties this time. Controversial background."

"Xia Shang and Western Zhou, and Eastern Zhou are divided into two sections, Spring and Autumn and Warring States."

"I divided the Zhou Dynasty into East and West two weeks."

"The East and West are officially divided into two weeks, with Zhou Ping and Wang Dongqian as the distinction."

"East and west are just the division of the capital's location."

"During the Western Zhou Dynasty, the emperor of Zhou maintained the authority of the co-lord of the world."

"After King Ping moved to the east, that is, from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the Zhou royal family began to decline. They only kept the name of the Lord of the World, but they no longer had the actual ability to control it."

"From now on, the world has entered a new stage."

"Spring and Autumn and Warring States!!!"

heard.

Hu Hai frowned, and asked in confusion: "Haven't you already divided Zhou into things? Why do you want to divide into Spring and Autumn and Warring States?"

Ji Heng looked normal, and said: "'Spring and Autumn' and 'Warring States' are not independent dynasties, but two special 'historical periods', both belong to the 'Eastern Zhou'."

"The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were divided into three families as the boundary."

"Before Ping Wang moved east to the three families and divided into Jin Dynasty, it belonged to the Spring and Autumn Period."

"The three families of Han, Zhao and Wei were divided into Jin, and they all belonged to the 'Warring States' until the first emperor ruled the world."

"Today's talk starts from Spring and Autumn."

Hu Hai looked at Ji Heng suspiciously, unable to figure out what Ji Heng was thinking.

I asked myself to read "Fondoffages of counties and counties" earlier, but now why did I talk about the Zhou Dynasty?

How can the two be compared?
partition.

Fusu frowned slightly.

He was also not sure what Ji Heng was thinking.

Fusu's visit this time is actually to investigate Ji Heng.

He was confident that he had understood the essence of the "enfeoffment of prefectures and counties", so he wanted to judge whether Ji Heng was a great talent, but Ji Heng didn't speak according to the routine at all, which made him a little confused about the situation.

"Two weeks east and west? Spring and Autumn and Warring States period?"

"Although the enfeoffment of prefectures and counties started in the Zhou Dynasty, how can Daqin be compared with Zhou Dynasty?"

Fusu lowered his eyebrows, deep in thought.

Ji Heng took a sip of his drink and said, "Most of the schools of thought we are familiar with originated in the Spring and Autumn Period."

"It was also from the Spring and Autumn Period that the world entered a period of great change."

"The reason for the great change is that on the one hand, the development of bronze ware reached its peak, on the other hand, the appearance of iron ware, and the promotion of cattle farming. In short, the things that ordinary people can produce have increased. strength has been greatly enhanced.”

"I'm not interested in talking about productivity."

"I'll just make another point."

"The reason why the world will enter a big change is that apart from the great increase in productivity, the more important thing is that Zhou Tianzi lost his power."

"It is precisely because of the loss of the status of the "co-lord" of the emperor of Zhou that the full-time court cultural officials began to decline, or they were transferred to other countries, and local private scholars began to rise, and there began to appear that "the emperor lost his official position and studied in Siyi" Case."

"'Shi' rises from now on!"

"You should know later."

"All schools of thought were bred in this great change."

"Thus, from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Warring States Period, the rituals of the world collapsed, the kettles thundered, the high banks became valleys, and the deep valleys became mausoleums. The monarch changes, the officials change, the people change, and the law changes."

"Changing the world is anyone who can change!"

"Then a very different situation appeared in the world."

"Many princes don't care about the world, but only care about private governance, trying to alienate Zhou Tianzi."

"There is a massive merger and hegemony between countries."

"As Han, Zhao, and Wei overthrew the Zhi family, marked by the result of the division of the three families into the Jin Dynasty, the world officially entered the pattern of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period."

"That is, Qin, Han, Zhao, Wei, Chu, Yan, and Qi."

"However, since Emperor Zhou lost power, striving for hegemony has become the mainstream of the world."

"The world has been slaughtered for more than [-] years, and the war has been incessantly turbulent. The world is full of blood, and the people are displaced."

"People's thoughts rule, people's thoughts are one."

"Unification of the world, under hundreds of years of slaughter, has converged into a tide.

"This is what the people want and it is the general trend."

"And Qin had the last laugh!"

"If you compare Qin and Zhou, you will find that they are two eras, and there is not much similarity at all. But if you look carefully, you will find that there are still many habits inherited from the Zhou Dynasty in Daqin, so the empire of Daqin In my opinion, it looks new, but it is actually a mixed empire of old and new.”

"But as I said before."

"Who is the changer?"

"Change the country, change the way of governance, change the livelihood, and change the people."

"At present, Daqin has only realized the unification of geography, but not the unification of culture and system."

"If you want to completely end this change, you need to unify the outside and the inside."

"This great change that started in the Spring and Autumn Period is still going on, and it will even last for a long time. The historical trend of Daqin was achieved through war, but war can't turn Daqin into a universal ruling country. If Daqin's transformation fails , there will definitely be another empire to take Daqin's place, try again."

"Until this transformation is complete."

Hearing what Ji Heng said, Hu Hai frowned.

He didn't understand.

He felt that what Ji Heng said was too mysterious.

Hasn't Daqin already achieved the unification of the world?
Why is it not completely unified?
And even if the culture and system have not been completely unified, Daqin has been pushing books with the same text and cars with the same track these years. When these systems are thoroughly implemented, Daqin will naturally achieve the unity of the outside and the inside.

He felt that Ji Heng thought things too complicated.

separated by a wall.

Fusu sat on the table, thoughtful.

He understood something, but not fully.

He can only roughly guess that the reason why Ji Heng said this is to pave the way for the explanation of "dividing counties and counties" later.

But he was also a little puzzled.

Is there really a change in the world that can last for more than five hundred years?
And hearing Ji Heng's words, Daqin clearly looks like a transitional one.

At this time.

Ji Heng didn't speak.

He frowned and bowed his head, thinking about something.

a long time.

Ji Heng raised his head, his face full of excitement.

He completely figured it out.

He knew why he had failed for nine lifetimes.

If the route is wrong, no matter how hard you try, it will only lead to the opposite direction.

Change change.

This change, which started in the Spring and Autumn Period, has continued and did not end with the change of dynasties.

He got it all! ! !
