Start having a baby!I dressed as the mother of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 55 54. Who wants to kill me? (Seek to read and collect)

How can there be any glory behind?
I learned from Mrs. Shen's personal maid that Mrs. Shen, who was once favored by the emperor, did not have a grand burial with the emperor, but only took a place in the corner of Ba Ling...

Emperor Wen's funeral was grand in scale.The doctor ordered Zhang Wu to drive more than 1 soldiers and conscripts to build the Baling.According to the edict of Emperor Wen, most of the burial objects were pottery, and less gold and silver.

But Wang Zhi lived deep in the palace, thinking about Emperor Wen's last edict, and couldn't understand it.

The imperial edict of Emperor Wen of Han fully embodies the brilliance of human nature and can be regarded as a model among emperors.

First, the issue of life and death.Everything in the world has life and death.Death is not terrible, it is the law of nature, and there is nothing to be sad about.

"Life and death" is an eternal topic.In that age when divination was required for many things, it was very rare to be able to clearly understand the nature of this problem.

Among the emperors of China, there are many emperors who diligently seek elixir and dream of immortality.See life and death so indifferently, who else but Han Wendi?

Second, be cautious and guard against fear.Claiming to be "I am neither virtuous" nor "I don't understand", it is really lucky to be an emperor. Relying on the spirit of heaven and earth, the country is still peaceful and there are not many wars.

Third, do not disturb the people.On this point, Emperor Hanwen explained very carefully.

According to the funeral of the emperor in "Zhou Li", the emperor is the "father" of the subjects of the world; when the father dies, according to the etiquette, the children have to mourn for three years.So strictly speaking, when the emperor dies, all the officials and people in the world should be mourned for three years.There are many taboos during the mourning period, such as not drinking and eating meat, not marrying wives and so on.

But Emperor Wen felt that the emperor should take the well-being of the world as his well-being, so how could he use himself alone to annoy all the people in the world?A symbolic mourning is enough to replace the years with the days.This "three-day mourning" has become a rule for later generations.

What puzzled Wang Zhi was that since Emperor Wen was indifferent to life and death, why did he "not ask the common people and ask ghosts and gods"? How to explain the "Xigakiping" incident?Wang Zhi was accused of being a demon girl and almost burned to death. What is the mystery?Who is going to kill her?
Can't help but think of the old prime minister Zhang Cang that Empress Dou said.

Zhang Cang is from Yangwu. He likes books, music and calendars very much.In the Qin Dynasty, he served as the censor and was in charge of various documents and files in the palace.Later, he took refuge in Hanwang Liu Bang.

In the fourth year of Emperor Wendi, Guan Ying, the prime minister, died, and Zhang Cang succeeded him as prime minister.

Because Gaozu entered the customs in October and destroyed Qin and reached Bashang, the old calendar of the Qin Dynasty that started the year with October is still followed.Zhang Cang also inferred how the five virtues of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth were functioning, and believed that the Han Dynasty was in a period when the virtues of water were flourishing, so they still respected black like the Qin Dynasty.

Gongsun Chen, a native of Lu, took over Luoyang talented Jia Yi's theory of "correcting Shuo and changing clothes", and wrote to Emperor Wen, saying that the Han Dynasty belonged to a period of prosperous Tude, and the sign was that Huanglong would appear soon.Emperor Wen issued an edict to submit this proposal to the prime minister Zhang Cang for review, Zhang Cang thought it was not the case.

But later Huanglong really appeared in Chengji County, Tianshui County.Prime Minister Zhang Cang was also demoted for this.Then Aragakihei came on stage.

Zou Yan, a yin and yang expert, put forward the "five virtues" as the beginning and end, wood, fire, earth, gold and water.It is believed that the change of dynasties in the past is that each represents a virtue, and according to the five elements, metal is white, wood is green, water is black, fire is red, and earth is yellow.

This invention is very important to explain the cause of the existence of the world and the existence of dynasties. Otherwise, there will be a cultural gap, and no one can explain why there are dynasties and the replacement of dynasties.It will cause confusion about the legitimacy of governance.

The Yellow Emperor belonged to earth and favored yellow; Dayu belonged to wood and favored green; the Shang dynasty belonged to gold and favored white; the Zhou dynasty belonged to fire and favored red; the Qin dynasty belonged to water and favored black.

After Qin Dynasty, Zhengshuo should be Tude.However, Zhang Cang felt that Qin was tyrannical and immoral, and Han was acting as a substitute for heaven. Instead, he should inherit Zhou's morality, so Han favored black and red. "

When the reckless emperor Liu Bang rebelled, he created a destiny legend of "the red emperor's son killing the white emperor's son".Therefore, as the Red Emperor, his flag and main color are red.

But when he became King of Han, he took the initiative to change the color of his clothes and flags to black, which was consistent with that of the Qin Dynasty.He had the consideration of pleasing the elders of the old Qin and allowing his Kwantung military and political group to integrate with the economic group of Qin, and he also had a clear hint of Han inheriting the Qin system.

It is said that the Qin Dynasty was the virtue of water and favored black, and the Han Dynasty destroyed Qin, it should be the virtue of earth and favored yellow.But what's the matter with using the same virtue as the Qin Dynasty, which was rebelled and destroyed by itself?
When Emperor Wen first came to the throne, the hero group was the defender of Huang Lao Taoism.They need the principle of Huang Lao's thought that "things are determined by the law and not by the monarch" to limit the imperial power.The gentle concept of the rule of law of Huang Lao thought is needed to maintain the institutional guarantee of the legality of titles, status and wealth of heroes and princes in the system of the early Han Dynasty in which the Han inherited the Qin system.

Therefore, the hero group is very concerned about the status of Huang Lao's learning as the guiding ideology of governing the country, and strives to maintain the Han-Qin system.

In fact, the sanctity of imperial power in the early Han Dynasty was very weak.Liu Bang entertained his ministers.A general got drunk in the palace, got excited when bragging and yelling, and directly took his sword to chop the pillars of the palace hall.

When it came to Liu Ying, Cao Shen even humiliated the emperor by saying that you are not capable, so don't mess around.

Emperor Wenwen of the Han Dynasty was also the emperor who picked up leaks. He was sandwiched between the military group and the princes of the Liu family, and was poured into his stomach by pinching his nose and "governing by doing nothing".

Divinity was also very important in ancient times.The ancients had to rely on theological narratives to obtain certainty and a sense of security, as well as a harmonious explanation of political existence and the legitimacy of rule.

Xin Yuanping continued to create some prophecy signs and auspicious events for Emperor Han Wen, so that Emperor Han Wen could continue to find reasons to expand the emperor's etiquette and authority, and continuously expand the emperor's sanctity among the people, the right to speak, and the scope of the emperor's authority. The feeling of a cult of personality.

So, why did Xin Yuanping frame Wang Zhi as a witch?What is the purpose of Emperor Wen conniving him to burn the king's palace to sacrifice to heaven?
In the 17th year of Emperor Wen, when Wang Zhi entered the palace, there was another sign of "digong auspiciousness".Xin Yuanping sent someone to offer a jade cup, engraved with the words "The Lord prolongs life".Therefore, Emperor Wen issued an edict to change this year to the new first year, and ordered the people all over the world to gather and drink to their heart's content.

This change is of great significance.In the past, emperors did not have special year names, and they were all recorded in the order of the year in which the emperor ruled.

Emperor Wenwen of the Han Dynasty took advantage of the Tianzhao event to change the Yuan Dynasty. He did not create words as the year name, but recounted from the 17th year of Emperor Wenwen of the Han Dynasty. The next six years were called the first year of the Yuan Dynasty and the second year of the Yuan Dynasty... The first 16 years of Emperor Wenwen of the Han Dynasty are called Qianyuan.

This is the first time that an emperor has changed the Yuan midway. It is the emperor who declares to the world the influence of the emperor's power and influence, and has the power to start a new era.This symbolizes that the strengthening of the monarchy has gone one step further.It also indicates that Emperor Wenwen of the Han Dynasty's "Correction of Shuo and Changing Clothes", the curtain of the Han family's restructuring, is about to begin.

Huanglong's appearance and a series of Tianzhao incidents planned by Xin Yuanping opened the breakthrough of the reform movement for Emperor Wen of Han.But these celestial signs are likely to be miracles deliberately created by the emperor behind his back.

This attack method worked very well, and the emperor's local prestige gradually overwhelmed the princes and prime ministers since then.

Who was Xin Yuanping instigated to confuse Emperor Wen and frame Wang Zhi who brought the "Emperor's Auspicious Bow" into a demon girl?With Emperor Wen's mind, don't he understand that Wang Zhi was framed?Wang Zhi almost became a victim of "Correcting Shuo, Changing Clothes"?
Thinking of this, Wang Zhi couldn't help shivering.

Xin Yuanping is very popular, the official is the top doctor, and he is rewarded with a thousand gold.Many people were upset to see that they became rich by pretending to be gods and ghosts.

Even Wang Zhi, the "Son of Heaven", was framed for burning to sacrifice to heaven. Xin Yuanping went a little too far!

Under the strict investigation by Zhang Cang, Marquis of Beiping and Zhang Shizhi, Ting Wei, the Great Immortal Xinyuan was full of flaws, and his tricks were actually quite inferior. After careful investigation, he immediately revealed his secrets.Emperor Wen, who became angry from embarrassment, chopped Xin Yuanping off!
This struggle of "rectifying Shuo and changing clothes" failed because Xin Yuanping played through gangs.Emperor Wen gradually lost his mind to these messy gods and ghosts.

Because of this, Emperor Wen was deceived by the gods, cut him down, and ended up punishing his three clans.Isn't Xin Yuanping a victim of this struggle, a pawn?

The emperor's mind, for the sake of imperial power and politics, everyone is a pawn and a victim.

Caressing his stomach, Wang Yan said secretly: "Liu Xiaozhu, have you learned it? Your imperial grandfather is your idol. If you are a hero, you need to be gentle, cruel, domineering, and unscrupulous... Mother will live until the end of the day." Tianlu Pavilion and Shiqu Pavilion will take you to learn the way of the king. The way of Huang Lao, internal law and external Confucianism, mother wants you to be an all-rounder!"

Tianlu Pavilion is the National Archives, and Shiqu Pavilion is the National Library.

In the early Western Han Dynasty, when Chang'an began to design and build it as the capital of the ruling class, Prime Minister Xiao He presided over the construction of Tianlu Pavilion and Shiqu Pavilion in Weiyang Palace.At the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty, the "Law of Holding Books" of the Qin Dynasty continued to be implemented (the prohibition that the people were not allowed to collect books).During the reign of Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty, in order to collect and organize books, the "law of carrying books" was abolished.

After the efforts of several generations of emperors, the lost books at the end of Qin Dynasty were excavated and sorted out. There are 590 books collected in Chang'an, with 260 nine volumes, hidden in Tianlu Pavilion and Shiqu Pavilion.

Just because of the reason of keeping filial piety for Emperor Wen, and because she was pregnant, Wang Zhi took Xue'er and other servants to live in Tianlu Pavilion.

Avoiding those chickens pecking at each other, Wang Zhi devoted himself to the life of reading books and history.Accompanying and teasing the three daughters, taking them to read and read, this kind of life makes Wang Zhi feel quite comfortable.

On this day, Wang Hao was holding a booklet and studying it, when Xue Er rushed in with Sheng Er, Wang Hao's personal lady-in-waiting.

When Sheng'er saw Wang Zhi, he knelt down, "Mrs. Wang! I beg you to save Mrs. Wang!"
