Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Luo Longsheng was a little surprised. He had not thought about this issue very seriously. He pondered for a moment and then said: "I think it was Wang Meng who saw early on that the former Qin Dynasty was strong on the outside and weak on the inside. The internal conflicts among the various races were huge and on the verge of breaking out. In particular, these Xianbei people of the Murong clan are notoriously ambitious. When the former Qin Dynasty was strong, they would hide and be submissive. Once the country was in trouble, they would definitely take advantage of the situation to cause chaos."

"On the other hand, Wang Meng himself is also a Han, and deep down he still regards the Eastern Jin Dynasty as his official title. He does not want to build a powerful Hu country on his own hands that will destroy the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Even if Fu Jian respects him and uses him in important , listening to his words, there is no guarantee that the future monarchs of Qin will be like this. Once a tyrant like Fu Sheng comes to power, forces and oppresses the Han people, and even destroys the cultural traditions of the Han people, then he will be a sinner through the ages, so , I believe Wang Meng’s real idea is to let the former Qin and the Eastern Jin coexist.”

"This coexistence means that the two countries stand side by side, value peace, and avoid large-scale wars. Under his rule, the northern Central Plains can slowly immigrate and change customs, so that the cruel and barbaric Hu rulers can learn from The Han people's Zhouli Confucianism, which talks about etiquette and practices benevolence and righteousness, allows ordinary Hu people to live and work in peace and contentment, from nomadic fighting to settled farming. After decades or hundreds of years, they will become nothing like the Han people. The difference is that only at this time can we consider the reunification of the North and the South."

The black robe nodded with satisfaction: "Those who know the general trend, Luo Longsheng, you have analyzed it very well. This is the contradiction of Wang Meng. Although the Eastern Jin Dynasty is a Han family, it has a clear hierarchy. The aristocratic families control most of the power and resources, it is difficult for lower-class people to get ahead. When Wang Meng lived in seclusion in Guanzhong before leaving the mountains, he also met Huan Wen. The two had a very good conversation, and Huan Wen also recognized Wang Meng's talent and wanted to take him back. He wanted to be an official in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but was finally rejected by Wang Meng because he saw that he was useless in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. He could only be a senior staff member of Huan Wen, and even among Huan Wen's staff, there were many Xi Chao and Wang Xun. For a child of such a noble family, even if these people are slightly less capable than him, they will not let him get ahead."

Luo Longsheng frowned: "At that time, the Jin State was full of talents. Xie An, Xi Chao, and Wang Xun were actually very outstanding talents. It might not be a bad thing for Wang Meng to work with them, and if Xie An and Liu Yu were both He can be promoted, and he is not the kind of person who is jealous of talents and talents, so why not use Wang Meng?"

The black robe sneered: "Wang Meng and Xie An are of the same generation, and Xie An and Liu Yu are two generations apart. Moreover, Xie An was already in the prime minister's position at that time. Promoting Liu Yu at this time was a promotion for the younger generation, and it was not It will not affect his interests, and this is because he wants to use Liu Yu to protect the Xie family in the future, or even pull Liu Yu into the underworld in the future."

"But Wang Meng, if he came to the Eastern Jin Dynasty during Huan Wen's time, he would definitely be suppressed. On the one hand, his ability is not weaker than or even slightly stronger than the talents of the Eastern Jin Dynasty families at that time. If there is fair competition, he may rise to the top. , but this position is not entirely based on ability, but on his special identity and relationship."

Luo Longsheng's expression turned serious, and he said thoughtfully: "The relationship you are talking about refers to the relationship with Huan Wen."

The black robe sighed: "That's it. Huan Wen is a person who has the intention to usurp the throne. This is known to the whole world. He is definitely not a loyal minister. The children of the aristocratic families in the shogunate under him are not completely used by Huan Wen, but also some The role of monitoring him and admonishing him cannot be regarded as Huan Wen's own people. Huan Wen has military power in his hands, but the power of government belongs to these children of aristocratic families. This is also the last line of defense to restrict Huan Wen from usurping the throne. Therefore, he needs someone who can stand completely On his side, he is also willing to help those who usurp the throne become courtiers, which is why he wants to take away Wang Meng."

Luo Longsheng said with a smile: "Can't Xi Chao complete this task? Although he is a son of a noble family, he is Huan Wen's best friend, and Huan Wen also knows that Xi Chao is a member of the mafia. Winning over Xi Chao does not mean that he is an intruder. Are you inside the mafia? Why do you need to add Wang Meng?"

Heipao said calmly: "Being a Xi Chao is not safe, and for such a Machiavellian, it is too dangerous. Xi Chao may betray him at any time. After all, the two have different positions. He wants Xi Chao to help him control the government. , Xi Chao still wants to take the opportunity to develop his own power in the army. The two parties are just a cooperative relationship. The Xi family is also a big family since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and its status is not lower than that of the Huan family. If they form an army in Yangzhou in the name of the Northern Expedition in the future , it is possible that the Huan family will not be able to dominate. Therefore, it is obviously more in Huan Wen’s interest to find a Wang Meng who has no foundation in the south and was completely promoted by UU Reading www.uukanｓｈnet. At least, it can make him He has an extra line of defense.”

Luo Longsheng laughed: "It's just like a god, you want to find an apostle as the successor of another god. You also need to make more bets and establish more apostles. This is the reason."

The black robe smiled slightly: "Absolutely. Wang Meng is so shrewd. He knows everything about the internal affairs of the southern Jin Dynasty. He is not willing to get involved in the internal disputes of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and become someone else's pawn. Moreover, he knows that Huan Wen's Northern Expedition is just a pawn. He was just trying to gain fame for his usurpation, not because he really wanted to regain the old mountains and rivers. If he really helped him, even if Huan Wen came to power in the future, he would not leave a good reputation in the history of history, but would Wang Meng does not want to become the **** and accomplice of a usurper."

Luo Longsheng sneered and said: "Does it mean that becoming the prime minister and important minister of the Hu people's regime will have a good reputation? If he helped the former Qin Dynasty unify the world and destroyed his parents' country, he would be famous forever?"

The black robe shook his head: "So Wang Meng did not agree with Fu Jian's attack on the Eastern Jin Dynasty. He tried every means to prevent it during his lifetime because he wanted to avoid such a reputation. He wanted to let the Di people in the north be integrated into the Qin Empire under the rule of the Di people. The Han culture, after learning Confucian Zhou rites, eventually became no different from the Han people. In this case, whether it was conquering the south or conquering the north, it was acceptable. In his lifetime, he was doing things in the north. Construction, racial integration, so that people of all ethnic groups can enjoy peace, and at the same time teach them that this is Han culture. Only by learning Confucianism, Law, and Zhou rites can they enjoy this kind of peace. Over time, the barbaric Hu people will be tamed and no longer addicted to He killed the violent and became a kind and law-abiding people. From this point of view, Wang Meng made great contributions to the people in the north." (End of this chapter)
