Chapter 417 Using Magic to Defeat Magic

Chapter 417 Using Magic to Defeat Magic
If later generations mention the history of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Jiao and the Yellow Turban Uprising led by him are a major event that cannot be avoided no matter what.

It is said to be the Yellow Turban Uprising, and some people call it the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

Different asses, different minds, and naturally different heads.

We all rely on a smart head to let our butt sit on a high position.In the end, because of this position, the butt dominates the head again.

Some people say that Zhang Jiao is a great virtuous teacher, others say that Zhang Jiao is a rebellious thief, and some people say that Zhang Jiao is just an ambitious man who wants to establish a Taoist kingdom on earth.

But no matter what kind of argument it is, it cannot be denied that Zhang Jiao contributed a lot to the death of the great man.

Since the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Uprising in the first year of Zhongping, the state affairs of the Han Dynasty have been in trouble, and the national canal has been in decline. This is definitely related to the pacification of the Yellow Turbans.

The body of the empire was hollowed out, resulting in the separatism of the princes, and finally accelerated the process of the demise of the great Han.

But Lin Chao has always believed that history is a strange circle. Even if Zhang Jiao is an ambitious man, what's the fault of those millions of people from the bottom of the city who are submissive?
Natural disasters and man-made disasters keep coming and going, alien race invades the border every year, food and clothing are homeless, diseases and pains are rampant...

But what about people from other classes living in the same sky?
The nobles who have read poetry and books are in power,
With the strength of the army in hand, sing joyously,
Thousand hectares of fertile land, a nobleman who lives high in the temple,

Every year, the alien races on the side of the enemy are waving their bows and swaying their arms!
The sage said, don't worry about widows, but worry about inequality.

In such a hopeless situation, the voice from the lowest level resounded through the entire Han Dynasty overnight, making the former rulers terrified.

Zhang Jiao is just a representative of these low-level people.

Just like a big man, without Zhang Jiao, there will be Li Jiao, Zhao Jiao, Wang Jiao...

So for Zhang Jiao, Lin Chao didn't have a good impression, but he didn't have a bad feeling either. He was just a loser struggling in the torrent of history.

Lin Chao was silent for a moment, then he opened his mouth and said to Zuo Ci, "Zhang Jiao is a traitor to the country, everyone knows it, sir, why bother to ask again."

Lin Jianjun considers himself a Hanchen, so from his point of view, Zhang Jiao can only be a thief, and will always be a thief.

Hearing this, Zuo Ci nodded, and this answer was also within his expectation.

"Does Marquis Lin know where the Yellow Turban Rebellion started?"

This question immediately stopped Lin Chao.

The cause of the Yellow Turban Rebellion was naturally the result of natural disasters and man-made disasters plus land annexation.

This is not only true of the Yellow Turban, but also of all dynasties.

When the recorded population is getting smaller and smaller, the aristocrats hide a large number of people, but only pay a small amount of taxes. While the gap between the rich and the poor widens, the burden of supporting the whole world is placed on the poor. Naturally, It's not unusual for this to happen.

If he encounters the Lord of Darkness again, coupled with abnormal weather, reduced food production, and frequent natural and man-made disasters, then the end of the dynasty will not be far away.

However, how could Zuo Ci, an outsider like Zuo Ci, understand such questions about the law of historical summarization? The reason for asking this question is probably not such a summarizing substantive question.

Reminiscent of Zuo Ci's identity as a monk, Lin Chao guessed that he was probably asking about the Tao of Taiping, or even the origin of Taoism as a whole.

Therefore, Lin Chao pondered for a long time before finally saying: "The beginning of Taiping Dao should start with Dong Zhongshu."

Speaking of Dong Zhongshu, the spokesperson of Confucianism in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the monk Zuo Ci fell silent, nodded his head after a long time, and then sighed again.

In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, the land of China, which experienced ups and downs, was already in a state of decline and a lack of population.

Therefore, the rulers drew on the negative experience of the death of Qin Dynasty II, and established the Huang Lao Wuwei thought derived from Taoism as a general policy for governing the country.

After the rule of Wenjing, the national power has gradually become richer.

At this time, a man with the aura of domineering came to the stage.

Liu · Lovers of Male Pets · Lovers of Forgetful Milk · Huo Qubing's Father · Witch Gu Master · Golden House Cangjiao · Immortal Cultivation Mad Demon · Che said that my journey is the sea of ​​stars!
Have you seen the two SSRs of Wei Qing and Huo Qubing in my hand?

Who dares to refuse to accept, if these two kings blow up, you will be booming and in a trance!
In this regard, the Huns said, His Majesty the Great Emperor is right, why don't we kneel and lick!
The boss Liu Che was very satisfied, and at the same time, the corners of his mouth twitched, revealing a wicked smile.

Everything in this world belongs to me, remember!

The Xiongnu Shanyu immediately bowed his head and bowed!

Yes, yes, Your Majesty, you have big fists, and you are right, everything in this world is indeed yours! (shivering.gif)

It is true that Huang Lao governed the country very well, but it did not meet Liu Che's expectations.If we continue to do nothing, everyone will immediately start to lie down, how can this work.

Just at this time, a person guessed the emperor's mind, seized the opportunity on the spot, and presented Liu Chejin with a set of ideological theories that could strengthen the centralization of power and consolidate the legitimacy of the emperor.

This person is Dong Zhongshu!
It was also when Dong Zhongshu founded the theory of interaction between heaven and man that Confucianism entered the classroom for the first time, and it occupied the official discourse power for most of the next 2000 years.

The reason is that Dong Zhongshu carried out an update and iteration of Confucius' speech and thought, adjusted a new version, and gave Confucianism the final right of interpretation.

Although this version may not even agree with Confucius himself, it has attracted Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who was determined to forge ahead and wanted to strengthen the centralization of power.

Liu Che saw that Xiao Dong had something!
Well, we will use your idea in the future!

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty appointed Dong Zhongshu's theory of interaction between heaven and man as the official ideology, and the Taoist theory, which advocated inaction, was naturally expelled from the temple and left outside the official school.

This is the famous dispute between Confucianism and Taoism in the early Western Han Dynasty!
After Dong Zhongshu won, he felt that Taoism did not obliterate Confucian orthodoxy when he was in power, so he also let Taoism go, but he did not let go of Legalism.

The Taoists lost, but the Taoists were still there, so naturally they would not give up.

Well, doesn't your emperor like telepathy between heaven and man, prophecy, and metaphysics like catastrophes?
We will too!
It was your Confucian school who first played virtual, then don't blame our Taoists for not talking about martial arts.

We all know that only magic can defeat magic!
So in the first year of Yongshi, Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty, a man named Gan Zhongke appeared in Qidi, where Huang Lao's study was bred in the past.He wrote the first religious classics in history - "Tianguan Calendar" and "Bao Yuan Taiping Jing".

After Gan Zhongke wrote this book, he claimed that today is the end of the Han family, and they should be ordered by heaven.The Emperor of Heaven sent a real person, Chi Jingzi, to teach me this way.

From these words, it can be seen that the Taoists have successfully learned magic and accurately grasped the pulse of the emperor.

But the person in power at that time was a firm inheritor of Confucianism, and the emperor was not interested in it. Therefore, Gan Zhongke's wave of magic attacks not only failed to hurt Confucianism, but killed himself.

Fans of Taoism saw that such a powerful magic had no effect at all, how could they be reconciled to it, so they offered it several times in succession.

It's a pity that the emperor didn't want to respond to such crazy hints.

Helpless, Taoist fans had no choice but to give up, and then gradually disappeared from the court.

But does this mean that Taoism has completely disappeared?

Of course not!

The voice of Huang Laodao just disappeared in the court, and did not disappear completely. Instead, it was broken into parts and sprinkled to the grassroots, and began to take root and sprout among the people, spreading branches and leaves.

One of the most typical representatives is the first generation of celestial masters, Zhang Daoling!
