Chapter 19 Historical Cycle Rate

After Su Chen finished watching the flag-raising video, he quickly moved on to the next video.

As soon as the title of the video came out, the ancient people from all dynasties still looked puzzled, but some sensitive people stared at the sky with nervous expressions.

In particular, the emperors of each dynasty became nervous and stared at the sky with full vigor.

[The historical cycle rate of China’s feudal dynasties#history#historyknowhow#cognition]

The issue of dynastic cycles has always been a perplexing issue for civil and military ministers in various dynasties, especially the emperor who was puzzled by this issue.

Everyone is also confused as to why no dynasty in history has lasted more than three hundred years.

What exactly is the reason for this, no one knows.

Throughout history, countless people with lofty ideals have wanted to find the answer, but they have never been able to find the answer.

Everyone is eager to know the root cause of the dynasty's cycle, so that they can find ways to solve the problem and defeat the curse of the dynasty not exceeding three hundred years.

Therefore, as soon as the title of the video came out, countless literati held their breath, wanting to see how future generations would view this problem and see if they could find some way to deal with it.

[Why has no unified dynasty lasted more than 300 years since Qin Shihuang unified China? So much so that Hegel even concluded that China has no history, only the repetition of the past. 】

[The Eastern and Western Han Dynasties add up to just over 400 years ago. This is because the two Han Dynasties are actually two dynasties, but they are both called the Han Dynasty. There was a gap of 2 years between the Wang Mang New Dynasty and the New Dynasty of Wang Mang. Even like the Song Dynasty, which lasted for more than 17 years together, there were still many experiences in between. Despite the changes in the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty, the powerful Tang Dynasty only had 300 years. 】

"What Hegel said was not extreme at all"

"The West Has No History"

"The history of Europe is even more messy"

"Qin Dynasty 14 years, Western Han Dynasty 210 years, Eastern Han Dynasty 195 years, Western Jin Dynasty 51 years, Eastern Jin Dynasty 103 years, Sui Dynasty 37 years, Tang Dynasty 289 years, Northern Song Dynasty 167 years, Southern Song Dynasty 152 years, Yuan Dynasty 98 years, Ming Dynasty 276 years, Qing Dynasty 276 years》

"The reason it exceeded 300 years in the early period is that the history of Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties is incomplete"

"In the 320th year of the Song Dynasty, more than 300 years ago, there was no change of power in the Southern Song Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty, but the capital was moved."

"The Southern Song Dynasty not only moved the capital, but also the political system collapsed once, and a new system was formed in the Southern Song Dynasty"

Ying Zheng looked at the sky with heartache. There were so many dynasties, but his Great Qin Dynasty only lasted for 14 years, not even a fraction of the other dynasties.

Hu Hai is such a treacherous son. He has ruined the empire he finally conquered. It is really convenient for him to demote him to a commoner.

The longest time was nearly 300 years, and his Great Qin only had a pitiful 14 years, which made him unhappy no matter how he looked at it.

But fortunately, the trajectory of history has changed now, and his Great Qin cannot die in another generation.

Liu Che: So the era I am living in now is the Western Han Dynasty? 210 can only be said to be quite satisfactory, at least much better than short-lived dynasties such as the Qin Dynasty and the Sui Dynasty.

Wang Mang: What? My new dynasty will only last 17 years? Although I already knew that the new dynasty would be replaced by the next dynasty, I did not expect it to be so soon. It only lasted 17 years and then disappeared. In this way, my New Deal failed, otherwise it would not have ended in only 17 years.

Liu Xiu: Only 195 years? Although it is not comparable to long-lived dynasties like the Tang, Ming and Qing dynasties, it is at least much better than those short-lived dynasties. I can only focus on what is in front of me and cannot care about the unscrupulous descendants of future generations. Forget it, the unworthy descendants will lose their country by failing to live up to their expectations, and there is nothing I can do about it. Cao Cao: After the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was the Western Jin Dynasty. Where did the Western Jin Dynasty come from? It doesn't sound like the regime established by Sun Quan or Liu Bei. Could it be that some hero came out of nowhere to unify the troubled times?
  Liu Bei: Western Jin Dynasty? It was over, and the revival of the Han Dynasty was still bankrupt.

Sun Quan: The Western Jin Dynasty means that the world was not conquered by Cao Cao or Liu Bei? I fought so fiercely with Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and ended up taking advantage of others?

Sima Yi: I didn’t expect that Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan fought so fiercely, and in the end the world was taken over by others. It’s just a pity that the Western Jin Dynasty only lasted 51 years, but the Eastern Jin Dynasty lasted for 103 years, which is not bad.

Sima Yan: 51 years? Will the Jin Dynasty that I established only last for 51 years? Why is it so short-lived?
  When Yang Jian saw that his Sui Dynasty was only 37 years old, his eyes darkened and he almost fainted.

He couldn't believe that the unified dynasty he had just established only lasted 37 years.

It is clear that the people live and work in peace and contentment, the world is peaceful, and there is a prototype of a prosperous age. How could it be so short-lived?

He had previously ridiculed Qin Shihuang for only lasting 14 years. He never expected that his Sui Dynasty would not be any better than Qin Dynasty.

In 37 years, it turned out that his Sui Dynasty and Qin Dynasty also died in the second generation.

As expected, the prince Yang Yong was not suitable to be emperor, so the prince must be deposed and replaced by Yang Guang.

Li Shimin: I didn’t expect that my Tang Dynasty lasted for 289 years, which was the longest among all dynasties. It was really surprising.

Li Longji: In such an objective comparison, my Tang Dynasty is actually the longest. I just don’t know if future generations will be able to find the reasons for the limitations of the 300-year dynasty. I might as well learn from it and see if I can make improvements to make the Tang Dynasty last longer.

Zhao Xu of the Northern Song Dynasty: Was the Northern Song Dynasty only 167 years old? Calculating that there is not much time left, it can only last two or three generations.

Zhao Gou of the Southern Song Dynasty: 152 years? Fortunately, it’s still a long time. At least my generation will not be destroyed. We can enjoy the glory and wealth without worrying about the demise of the Southern Song Dynasty in my hands.

Zhu Yuanzhang: 276 years is also very good, and it is considered longevity among all dynasties. I hope that future generations can tell us the reason why the dynasty does not last more than 300 years, so that we can think of ways to take measures. Although we cannot make the Ming Dynasty last forever, we can at least make the Ming Dynasty last a few more years.

Chongzhen: It’s over. The Ming Dynasty really died in my hands. Is there nothing we can do about it? I don’t want to be the king of a subjugated country, and I don’t want to be sorry for the country and the country left by my ancestors.

When Chongzhen saw that the Ming Dynasty was only 276 years old, he was extremely desperate and his face was ashen.

Originally, he had been worried that the Ming Dynasty would die in his hands, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

When he thought that he was the king of the Ming Dynasty and the sinner of the Zhu Ming Dynasty, he felt angina.

However, he did not intend to give up on himself, but placed his only hope on future generations.

The only people who can help him at present are the descendants of Tianmu.

He has already noticed that some historical scenes are often played on the marquee.

He hopes to see the history of the late Ming Dynasty and see what happened at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

Only in this way can he find countermeasures to prevent the Ming Dynasty from coming to an end.

Yongzheng: Later generations will have to explain the reason for the 300-year curse of the dynasty, right? He wanted to see what was the reason why the Qing Dynasty did not last more than 300 years.
