Chapter 47 Emperor Qin and Han Wu
  [The first one is the First Emperor Ying Zheng. Qin Shihuang achieved the unprecedented feat of unifying writing, currency, weights and measures, writing books with the same text, and chariots with the same track. He built the Great Wall to resist foreign enemies. His achievements are indeed outstanding.

However, he was overjoyed at his achievements and was arrogant about everything. He was proud of his unprecedented achievements. He believed that his achievements were greater than those of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, so he called himself emperor and held the first Mount Tai Zen ceremony recorded in history.

In the third year after Qin Shihuang ascended the throne, he decided to enshrine himself in Mount Tai, so he led many ministers to Mount Tai to perform the enshrinement ceremony.

At that time, Yishan was Qin Shihuang's first stop. He wanted to record his great achievements on a stone tablet and erect it on Yishan to commend himself and to show Qin Shihuang's eternal achievements to the land of Qilu. Come and tell the world that you deserve to be enshrined in Zen.

As Qin Shihuang's first stop, Yishan was just an appetizer. The highlight was the journey to the top of Mount Tai for the Zen Ceremony.

Before proceeding, many courtiers and scholars from Qi and Lu were summoned to discuss and advise on many matters regarding Feng Chan. At this time, thousands of scholars suggested that Feng Chan means to go to the top of Mount Tai to offer sacrifices to heaven and to worship at the foot of Mount Tai. Earth God, the former is called Feng and the latter is called Zen.

Then he said that in order to show the emperor's respect for Mount Tai, he was not allowed to ride to the top of Mount Tai to offer sacrifices to heaven.

Even if you have to take a car, you should take a car with wheels wrapped in cattails to avoid crushing Mount Tai. This is exactly the same as worshiping the heaven and mountain gods in ancient times.

This is contrary to Qin Shihuang's idea of ​​​​showing that he has swept the world and conquered the universe. Qin Shihuang Long Yan was so angry that he did not allow Confucian scholars to participate in the ceremony. He only led his trusted ministers to Mount Tai and opened a road up the mountain according to his own wishes. , a monument was erected on the top of Mount Tai, and a Zen ceremony was held. 】

[The second person to be granted Zen status was Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent troops north to drive out the foreign enemies, the Xiongnu, and to the east to conquer Korea, making outstanding contributions to the Han Dynasty's territory.

He also encouraged trade and sent envoys to the Western Regions, opening up connections with the Western world.

However, Liu Che was violent, arrogant, one-man dictator, and willing to go to war in his later years, which led to the decline of people's livelihood and the rise of rebellions.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty granted Zen status in March of the first year of Yuan Dynasty. He led his ministers to the east, and their destination was the Jade Emperor Peak, the top of Mount Tai.

When he reached the top of Mount Tai, he sent someone to erect a monument on it, and then he patrolled to the East China Sea. The next month, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty returned to Mount Tai and held a ceremony to enshrine him.

He built a nine-foot sealing platform at the foot of Mount Tai. After offering sacrifices to the earth gods and the ultimatum in the ground, he and the minister's son climbed Mount Tai to hold the sealing ceremony.

After the ceremony was over, the ministers paid homage to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and congratulated him one after another. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was delighted and took advantage of this to change the reign name of Yuanding to Yuan Feng. 】

"Without the First Emperor to unify the world, subsequent emperors would not know what to do. The First Emperor alone would determine the political pattern of China for two thousand years."

"To be fair, although the Qin Dynasty of the First Emperor only had two dynasties, the system lasted two thousand years."

"Qin Shihuang: I am the first emperor. No matter how many emperors follow, I am the first. I can crush you to death just because of this."

"Let's put it this way, Yingzheng's enthronement of Mount Tai is the glory of Mount Tai, and the enthronement of others is their glory, and the sixth son of the Song Dynasty does not count"

"Qin Shihuang is the greatest emperor in the world. How can he be an emperor who kills indiscriminately? He adheres to Legalism, and everything is based on the law. If he does not break the law, he will not kill him."

"Emperors personally consecrated Mount Tai 11 times, including 6 times by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty"

"Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: Alas, Xiongnu, I want to go to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen. Please cooperate with me."

"The Xiongnu who were beaten to pieces were able to sweep across Europe. This is the strength of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty"

"Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty reigned for decades, fought for decades, and was finally enshrined in Mount Tai."

Great Qin.

Once again, Ying Zheng felt particularly happy when he saw people from later generations praising him.

Compared with the flattery of the surrounding ministers, his praise of future generations is more useful.

Although he was used to the praises he received from later generations, he didn't mind more such praises.

It's not that he loves vanity so much, but he found that since the later generations in the sky praised him, the love of the people in the country for him has gradually deepened, and they no longer oppose him as before.

He even found that the people in the Six Kingdoms' homeland were slowly becoming more accepting of him, and they no longer easily broke out in riots against Qin.

The reason why the domestic situation is much better than before is all because of the praise given to him by later generations. After all, people all over the world can see the video on the sky screen and see the recognition of his achievements by later generations. People all over the world have gradually realized how great he was as the First Emperor, so they no longer resist his rule so strongly. .

He often thought that if Tianmu could praise his achievements every day, the people in the world would accept him wholeheartedly and no longer have any petty thoughts that they shouldn't have.

Compared with the gradual improvement in the attitude of the people of the world towards Qin Shihuang, Prince Fusu changed even more, and he understood Qin Shihuang more and more.

Before, his understanding of Qin Shihuang was more negative than positive.

He often complained that Qin Shihuang was too cruel to the people and treated his ministers cruelly, killing them at every turn.

He had also advised Qin Shihuang before, hoping that Qin Shihuang could govern the country with benevolence and righteousness, but his advice was of no use.

Because of this, there was a deep estrangement between him and Qin Shihuang.

But after accepting the public opinion offensive from later generations, he slowly discovered that his father was so great and could be so admired by future generations.

Only then did he realize that he had wrongly blamed his father and had not understood his father's good intentions before.

It turned out that everything his father did was of great significance to China.

Big man.

Liu Bang deserves to be a true descendant. He defeated the Huns and did not disgrace the old Liu family. He really deserves to go to Mount Tai to be enshrined.

He watched with great envy as future generations went to Mount Tai to enshrine themselves. The majestic scene on the top of Mount Tai made him full of envy and jealousy.

He also wanted to go to Mount Tai to be enshrined in order to commend himself for his outstanding achievements in overthrowing the Qin Dynasty, unifying the world, and establishing the Han Dynasty.

But he had just founded the country and was so poor that he couldn't even get four white horses, so he had no choice but to give up.

Fortunately, the descendants of later generations fulfilled his wish of being enshrined in Mount Tai, so he felt a little better.

Liu Che: Hahaha, as expected, I was the second emperor to go to Mount Tai for enshrinement.

He is still very happy to be able to go to Mount Tai to pray for Zen, and he has done so 6 times in total.

If you want to be enshrined in Mount Tai, you must have made great achievements, and if you can go to Mount Tai to be enshrined 6 times, it means that you have killed the Huns 6 times.

His greatest wish in life was to eliminate the Xiongnu and restore a stable and peaceful environment to the people of the Han Dynasty.

Although he already knew that the Xiongnu was beaten to a pulp, he still felt extremely happy every time it was mentioned by future generations. He didn't mind that future generations would say it a few times, even if it was mentioned every day.

But something later generations said shocked him and made him wake up in time.

Later generations criticized him for being willing to fight in his later years, which led to the decline of people's livelihood and the rise of rebellions.

Only then did he finally understand his previous confusion.

When Tianmu introduced the Empire's Shuangbi before, he also criticized him for the changes that occurred in his later years, which almost led to his ruin.

At that time, he was still curious about what happened in his later years that caused later generations to criticize him so much.

Now, he finally understood, everything.

It turned out that he was still waging wars until his later years. Because of his militarism, the world was in chaos, rebellions broke out, and the Han Dynasty almost collapsed.

Now that we know the reason, we can just avoid it and let the people recuperate in their old age!
