Spoiler History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 182 Your Majesty Piggy
[The full name of Haoqiang should be Haoqiang Landlord.

The real watershed in the Western Han Dynasty was Emperor Wu.

Before the decree of grace, there were many vassal states, and the emperor only controlled seventeen counties.

After the Tweeting Order, the era of vassal states in the early Han Dynasty ended, and the Han Dynasty entered the era of centralization in a true sense.

One of the keys to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty being able to show great ambitions on the throne is the good foundation left by the rule of Wenjing.

In modern times, there is always a misunderstanding of Wen Jing and Wen Jing. They always feel that Wen is weak.

But in fact, it was Emperor Han Wen who first used the cruel officials.

What is the reason for enabling cool officials?The biggest reason is that powerful people are difficult to treat.

The first place in the "Biographies of Cool Officials" is the Zhidu established by Emperor Wen. From the records, we can get a glimpse of the powerful style at that time.

There are more than [-] clansmen of the Sui family in Jinan, who are cunning and cunning, and two thousand stones cannot be controlled, so Emperor Jing worshiped the capital as the prefect of Jinan.When the family destroyed the chief evil of the Li family, the rest were all trembling.

Gathering more than [-] households, the vassal state has become lawless, making the vassals and kings ask for help from the central government to pacify it, which shows the vigor of the tyranny.

After Zhidu, Emperor Jingwu successively used cruel officials. The "Biography of Cool Officials" has a total of ten names and surnames. The most common words in the records are clan annihilation, extermination of clan, killing, Haoshi, Haojie and so on.

It can be said that the fight between imperial power and tyrants had already officially started during the time of Emperor Wen.

Why can a powerful person rise so quickly?
The multi-level classification of power in the vassal state is the soil for its growth.

Frequent natural disasters in the early Han Dynasty were the nutrients for its growth.

For example, in the 23 years of Emperor Wen's reign, there were a total of 26 records of wind, water, drought, hail, hunger, locusts, etc., and there were more than one disaster a year on average.

Ordinary people only need to encounter a disaster year, and if one fails, they will go bankrupt, and the only thing left is to be annexed by the powerful in the village. 】

The expressions of Liu Bei, Kong Ming and others were a little solemn, and they didn't even bother to pay attention to Li Erfeng's boastful words for the time being.

Only Zhang Fei was there humming:
"It's only been a few days, why do you have to sweat all day long?"

Zhang Fei has read a lot recently, so he naturally understands what Khan is called.

Who wouldn't be envious of those who can fight so that the barbarians respect Khan from a distance and add "Heaven"?

Zhang Fei thought even more, if he waits for the Central Plains to be set up in the north, and he goes to fight the barbarians himself, I wonder if he can also make a name for it?
The general of the universe in the text of the light curtain sounds good.

Pang Tong was a little envious:

"In the early Han Dynasty, all the heroes rose together, which is quite good."

"For example, that Gongsun Hong, when he was young, shepherd pigs at sea, and studied at forty, and within ten years he was granted the title of Marquis and Prime Minister."

"It is the first precedent for the prime minister to praise the marquis."

For a while, the hall was full of envious sighs.

In the prosperous age, when you meet Mingjun, you will show your ambitions, and you will return to your hometown with honor and honor.

But it is impossible for any scholar not to envy such a life experience.

Especially for this group of scholars who were born in troubled times and often lamented that their talents were useless before they met Liu Bei.

Zhang Fei was disturbed, and said loudly:
"Why do you need to sigh? We only need to support the great cause, so why should we envy that Gongsun Hong?"

This is true, Zhang Song looked around, the protagonist he chose was indeed right!

Kong Ming also shook his head and chuckled: Now that Chengdu is the center, there is Hanzhong in the north, and Jingzhou in the east, why worry about the great cause?

Pang Tong rolled his eyes and remembered someone:
"You can know from Yide that there was also a man in the early Han Dynasty who served as a marquis in vain, and his descendants were blessed."

"Ah?" Zhang Fei thought hard, even Fan Kuai, the Marquis of Wuyang, was fighting in the South and the North.

Pang Tong said slowly:

"His descendant, Emperor Xiaozhao, was an official until the prime minister, and his wife is the daughter of Tai Shigong."

Having said that, Zhang Fei met the number one person in his head, and his face was even full of disgust:

"The military advisor is talking about Chiquanhou Yang Xi?"

"Warriors of my generation would disdain to get the title from Xiang Yu's corpse!"

Pang Tong laughed, patted Zhang Fei's arm and said:
"Yide is really very ambitious, but what he said is correct, just like the Hongnong Yang family only respects Yang Chang as the first ancestor, but does not respect Yang Xi."

Liu Bei and Kong Ming smiled as they watched the question and answer between Pang Tong and Zhang Fei.

Liu Bei was very pleased: "Yide's reading is quite effective."

"After all, there are books now." Kong Ming was also very pleased:

"If the books Yide has read in the past year are recorded in bamboo slips, three bullock carts may not even fit them."

"Printed in a book, it weighs no more than a catty, and it can be carried with you even when you are marching or fighting."

Then Kong Ming raised his head and continued to look at the light curtain. He also wanted to see how the history he was familiar with was different in the eyes of later generations.
……

"This junior's cognition is strange. How could Emperor Wen not be decisive and fight in all directions?"

Changsun Wuji was confused and flattered him gently. It was known to the light screen before that the posthumous title of his majesty would be Wen.Li Shimin's eyes narrowed a bit as expected:

"When I was young, I admired the merits of Han and Wu, but now I know how rare it is for Emperor Wen."

Du Ruhui also shook his head:
"Weak words...it's hard to agree."

"A gentleman also has six arts. Every month, I and Xuan Ling should ride horses and shoot bows. Only by strengthening their bodies can they be full of energy."

"What is the relationship between literature and weakness?"

Fang Xuanling also nodded, just thinking that this junior has some prejudice against literati?

[When the little pig emperor was in power, he dealt more ruthlessly with the powerful, and there were many cruel officials under him.

And successively launched policies such as salt and iron monopoly, property tax, mausoleum relocation, unified minting rights and so on to attack the powerful.

But from a macro point of view, the emperor after Piggy did not have his strong wrists, and what he took over was a Han Empire that had been tossed by Emperor Wu, which accelerated the growth of the powerful.

The first is to calculate and report the order.

Counting money was first created by Liu Bang in order to emphasize agriculture and suppress business, but it was abandoned during the reign of Empress Lu.

After that, the people of the three emperors Hui Wenjing lived a relatively comfortable life, and business began to prosper.

Emperor Wu had great ambitions, and these ambitions required policies to be fulfilled, and the implementation of policies required money, so the calculations were rediscovered.

In the eyes of later generations, the suing order did not bring much money to Xiaozhu. On the contrary, it greatly destroyed the confidence of merchants, forcing wealthy merchants to gradually give up business and strive to transform into land-owning tyrants.

The second is the strategy of monopolizing salt and iron.

The Salt and Iron Conference during the reign of Emperor Wu and Emperor Zhao was very famous. At the meeting, there were several heated debates between Sang Hongyang, who admired the prosperity of the people, and Confucian scholars, who advocated economic laissez-faire. It was also a conflict between the imperial power representing the central power and the powerful power representing the local power. A violent collision.

There is no doubt that Sang Hongyang is the representative of the central government, and the more than 60 Confucian scholars who debated with him are from Qufu and other places. The nominal economic laissez-faire is actually to advocate for the powerful.

In the end, the salt and iron monopoly was enforced by Emperor Wu's iron fist, but after the death of Xiaozhu, the Confucian scholars, the old tyrants and the new bureaucratic landlords joined forces to fight back. In the end, Sang Hongyang was killed, and Huo Guang joined forces with this opposing force. The franchise exists in name only, but has become a new weapon used by local tyrants to oppress the people.

As a result, the Huo Group became a trinity of big bureaucrats, big landlords, and big businessmen, and took the lead in reaching the pinnacle of a powerful family.

The third important policy is to open Taixue.

This policy is matched with Confucianism, and the official textbooks of the Han Dynasty are handpicked, and young people are trained to become reserve officials of the Han Dynasty.

His Majesty Xiaozhu even personally issued an "Order to Encourage Scholarship" in order to seek virtuous people, hoping that these scholars would not be ignorant of the praise and come to shine for the Han Dynasty.

The Taixue in the Western Han Dynasty was relatively normal, but Wang Mang, known as the traveler, saw the value of the Taixue and made a small change:

In the Western Han Dynasty, there were only 12 Ph.D.s in Taixue who were qualified to lecture on classics. Based on this, it is speculated that the number of students should not be more than a hundred.

In the period of Wang Mang, according to the records in the Han Dynasty, Qimingtang, Biyong, and Lingtai built tens of thousands of student dormitories for Tai students, and there were supporting markets and granaries, which can be called the embryonic form of modern universities.

We all know that it is quite difficult to go out of production in the agricultural era, so Taixue, which has expanded its enrollment, has become the best place for powerful tyrants from all over the world to connect with each other and consolidate their power.

During Wang Mang's time, there were many talented people in Taixue, such as Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, and Deng Yu, Zhu You, Jing Dan, and Geng Chun, who were among the 28 generals of Yuntai.

It is estimated that Wang Mang himself could not have imagined that Taixue failed to train him the famous ministers and generals of the new dynasty, but instead cultivated a group of "anti-thieves".

As for the reason why Wang Mang overturned the car, we all know: it is both advanced and retro, but it is not in line with the era at that time.

And on Liu Xiu's side, don't even think about having too much camaraderie with classmates. For example, Deng Yu gave Liu Xiu a bad face not once or twice, but looking back at Deng Yu's background: Oh, Nanyang wealthy family, that's okay.

One of the reasons why Luoyang was the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty was because it was closer to Nanyang, and Liu Xiu's basic base was the Nanyang nobles.

Also in view of the founding conditions of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Eastern Han Dynasty failed to solve the problem of land annexation, and the local powerful people were becoming stronger with each generation.

The already weak imperial power had to rely on eunuchs, and finally gradually evolved into a struggle between eunuchs and tyrants, and a struggle between old and new tyrants at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The great people fight back and forth with their mouths full of oil, and the ordinary people lose their families and have nothing to eat in the process.

So in the end, "The sky is dead and Huang Tian should stand", Zhang Jiao vowed to put an end to the Eastern Han Dynasty Guozuo. 】

In the Chengdu government office, all the principals and ministers were motionless, staring at the light curtain without daring to relax at all.

This is their Han Dynasty, and they live in this chaotic world!
In today's world, almost no one who has read the book will not ask himself:

How did the world become like this?

Everyone has a different opinion about the cause of the Yellow Turban, but for them this is the first time ever, showing them the big man from the perspective of an outsider more than 1000 years later.

They seem to have seen an endless struggle without gunpowder.

The princes and landlords competed with each other for power and profit, and the emperor tried hard to implement new policies, but these gradually became the new weapons of the "meat eaters".

After 200 years of fighting like this, who heard the people howling?
So just like the Daze Township at the end of Qin Dynasty, the ravaged people who had no strength to cry cut out their hoes towards the princes and generals.

Although Liu Bei had been prepared in his heart, he was at a loss for words for a while.

Kong Ming remained silent, this problem is also what they will face later, how to solve it?

　I feel like this chapter still contains a few useful sentences, so it’s difficult to give birth.

　　Chapter 2 is getting late, sorry.
