My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Chapter 825: New Year's Eve, let's give out dog food

It doesn't matter whether you are a man or a woman. The one who is shameful is obviously the betrayer, and the one who deserves to die is obviously the one who breaks up first. But in the end, it is the gender that is blamed.

The person who summarizes the phenomenon is a genius, because he/she attributes the cause to gender; the person who summarizes the phenomenon is a fool, but he/she is kind enough to sympathize with the vast majority of compatriots, and also knows to say hello to the brothers/sisters to prevent them from falling into the same trap.

It's such wisdom and kindness that makes people laugh and cry.

This inevitably reminds people of squirrels.

Squirrels like to store food. They bury all the food they collect, bit by bit, in holes they dig themselves, and then cleverly cover it with leaves as a disguise.

You may say that the squirrel is smart, but it does not understand that leaves will be blown away by the wind; you may say that the squirrel is stupid, but it knows how to cover itself with a leaf to hide itself from others.

It's so clever that it makes people laugh and cry.

At this point, many people will find it strange.

The truth is this, the reality is that, but what does this have to do with Qin II.

The emperor governs the country, he is the one who issues orders. One can figure it out with one's feet, the emperor's orders can only force people to get married and have children, but they can never make women sacrifice themselves willingly.

It seemed that Qin Ershi could do nothing to maintain the stability and harmony of thousands of families.

The magic weapons to change a nation are, first, education, and second, mothers.

The most Qin II accomplished was education, but he could not solve the stability of millions of families.

It is impossible for him to transform himself into thousands of women and become the wife of thousands of men.

But this does not mean that Qin II could not do anything.

On the contrary, he can do too much.

To maintain the unity of a clan or even a large race and to make it prosperous and strong, it requires the efforts of thousands and thousands of mothers.

That is to say, thousands and thousands of women need to make choices and sacrifices, whether to be happy alone or to devote themselves to their families.

However, if millions of women are to be willing to be good mothers and wives, it depends on whether men are willing.

The world is a giant boomerang.

If a man treats a woman badly, the woman will feel that her efforts are meaningless. If the woman stops giving, the family will begin to fall apart. If the family falls apart, the next generation will suffer. If the next generation suffers, the man will inevitably have no money, and if he has no money, he will not be able to marry a good wife. . .

If men can respect their wives as they respect themselves, then the wife will definitely be happy to enjoy living in her husband's home, not to mention giving back to the family.

Idioms in Chinese history that describe husband and wife treating each other with respect and honoring each other are themselves expressions of the most perfect husband-wife relationship.

China discovered long ago that if you want to have a harmonious family, you have to start with the husband and wife, and to start with the husband and wife, they must first respect each other and then they can love each other.

If we want women all over the world to be willing to make such sacrifices, we must start from the source.

God created man and woman. The nemesis of man is woman, and the nemesis of woman is man.

In order to make a woman make sacrifices, the key is for a man to use his charm.

What makes a woman willing to devote herself and be a good and responsible wife and a good and responsible mother does not depend on the woman herself, but on the man.

So returning to the issue of governing the country, what Qin II could and should do was not to promulgate any laws or engrave any inscriptions to make everyone understand these principles.

What he can do is to set an example for the world as a husband and take on the responsibility of caring and caring for his wife.

Although the purpose of Qin II's doing this was not out of pure love for the queen, nor was it accidental, the emperor was completely motivated by the protection of the rights and interests of wives all over the world and the satisfaction of their wishes. Qin II still openly wrote a long poem to express his gratitude.

Qin Ershi chose an extremely special time. When the New Year was approaching, Qin Ershi wrote a masterpiece for the queen. The main content of this masterpiece was to express gratitude to the current queen, Feng.

Not only did Empress Feng give birth to two children for the current emperor, she has also always been gentle and respectful. This time when the empire was short of money, the Empress insisted on taking out most of her savings for fundraising. The emperor was very grateful for the soldiers' kindness.

The queen was magnanimous, kind-hearted and compassionate, which was something that all the ministers witnessed.

This marriage of political interests has been able to maintain its status to this day, and there is still real emotion between the emperor and the empress, which is very rare in history.

First of all, this queen was chosen by Fusu himself. Secondly, this queen has not done anything extraordinary or unexpected so far. Finally, this queen is very beautiful.

For Fusu, being able to have such a wife was truly a blessing from his ancestors.

In Chinese marriages, love is never the key, but a good match.

A rational man like Fusu would never choose a woman who is full of romantic thoughts and naive and ignorant of the world as his marriage partner from the beginning.

What's more, Fusu was an emperor, and his goal was to be the greatest emperor of all time, not some eternal romantic.

He wanted to be a good emperor, so he became a good husband; this meant that the Emperor of the Qin Dynasty, Qin II, was destined to have feelings for everyone, but not much.

In the face of great cause, all these emotional disputes are secondary.

As the New Year was approaching, the princes came to Xianyang City one after another to pay homage to the emperor and pay tribute. During this time, Fusu wrote a masterpiece.

It's better to write it down as soon as possible since it will stay in your stomach anyway. A time traveler wants to win a good reputation both in life and after death.

This thank-you letter from Qin II was full of praise for the empress, praising her to the sky.

Such a blatant display of love caught the princes who came to Xianyang by surprise.

Although they had always known that Qin II had married a beautiful woman, and that the beautiful woman was extremely gentle to him, the couple had always had a good relationship.

But this was a visit by the princes, and everyone pricked up their ears to hear some news in Xianyang city so as to plan for future political arrangements.

Men are like this, either on a battlefield with beacons or on a battlefield without beacons.

If you are tired of the war, then create smoke and gas.

When preparing to set off for Xianyang, everyone already knew that the emperor had not only stabilized the hearts of the people in Guanzhong during this period of time, but also came up with many new ideas. Recently, he also solved the problem of the Qin treasury that had been in deficit for many years.

The ministers had already written their own memorials, waiting for the end of the year for the princes to collectively praise the emperor. This was naturally done to please the respected Emperor Qin II in order to stabilize their own princes. Under the leadership of Qin II, the Great Qin Guanzhong had fertile soil, vast land, dense population, and very advanced military weapons.

The princes were naturally afraid of neglecting Qin II, and they all hoped to give him happy and auspicious news; in addition, the princes also hoped to get some clear instructions that would put their minds at ease.

After all, in the past history, there were many conflicts between the princes and the Zhou emperor. People were not afraid of conflict and struggle, but they were afraid of becoming the loser in the conflict and struggle.

Therefore, all the princes pricked up their ears to gossip and sharpened their shrewd eyes, hoping to obtain useful and beneficial information and be wary of remarks that were unfavorable to them.

Every year after that, Chen Ping would be very busy when the princes came to pay homage, because the ministers had to go through him to know the emperor's thoughts. It was also because of these things that Chen Ping did not want to stay in the Shangshutai anymore, but wanted to transfer to the court.

Who could have imagined that in the winter of that year, when the ministers came to pay homage to the emperor of Great Qin for the first time, what they saw was love poems written by Qin II to the current queen flying all over the sky in Xianyang City.

That winter, the people of Xianyang really ate a lot of dog food during the New Year.

The princes were so confused by the warm and romantic words and style of Qin II that they didn't know what they were here for.

The streets and alleys were filled with paper copies of poems about the emperor and empress, and people of all ages were reading them.

This fu is not as catchy and easy to recite as everyone imagines. On the contrary, it is very difficult to understand.

However, everyone likes the idea of ​​this poem.

Because the emperor used this poem to let every citizen understand their queen.

Most people may think that the so-called love poems of the emperor must be full of affection, but this poem was written in an exceptionally lofty style, as if it was intended to show the status of the queen in the emperor's mind, rather than to show off the relationship between himself and the queen.

In Changle Palace, Queen Feng Wanwan held the second love poem given to her by Qin II, which was known to everyone in the world, and her heart was filled with mixed emotions.

As a noblewoman from an aristocratic family, she understood at a very young age that her future marriage leave would serve the interests of the family.

In this era, there were also many noble ladies who fought for their freedom of marriage and happy love. They were willing to offend their fathers, sever family ties, and abandon everything they had to pursue love.

But Feng Wanwan is not an isolated case in the pursuit of love; she is just part of the majority.

And she is one of the most sober and outstanding women among the majority.

In this palace, there are many women who claim to want the emperor's love. But most of them are stupid, packaging the so-called desire as beautiful love and packaging their extreme selfishness as a perfect excuse.

Everyone says they love the emperor, but in fact they love supreme power.

If Fusu becomes a poor boy one day, will they still love him?
impossible.

If the emperor was not a wise, elegant and handsome young man, but an ugly, fat, incompetent old man, would they ignore the emperor?
Of course not. Quite the contrary, they will become like flies seeing big meat. The more stupid the other party is, the easier they think they can control the other party.

Although the queen was calm and sometimes not so wholeheartedly devoted to Qin II, she would not do such a stupid thing as to package her thirst for power and yearning for wealth as so-called love in a self-deceptive way.

The queen naturally understood the emperor's intentions.

Although it was a political show, she was quite happy about it.

Because one can tell at a glance that the emperor wrote this long fu with great seriousness, and the subject can only be the mother of a country.

The love between masters is not the lovey-dovey love between ordinary people, but a highly aligned political interest.

The empress smiled and embroidered the long poem written by the emperor for her word by word on silk.

The poem says:

Only during the Qin and Yuan dynasties did our ancestors receive orders and put an end to the chaos.

He embodies the holy posture of divine power, and holds the praise of heaven and man. He waves the lightning flag in all directions, brushing away the remnants of the universe.

I received the title of emperor in Gaoyi, and built the city and palaces of this capital. I followed the rules and omens of past dynasties, and followed the natural beauty of the dangerous and fortified areas.

It is surrounded by the torrent of Kunlun, and holds the twin rivers of Yi and Luo. It is supported by the rocky barriers of Chenggao, and by the towering mountains of the two Xiaos.

The Dizhu Huibo is in the back, and the Santu Taishi is in the front. It is guarded by the high and steep Songshan Mountain, which reaches the sky.

The longitude and latitude are divided, the track is straightened, the temples are set up in order, and the market is facing the back. Sighs raise the mist, and waving sleeves creates wind and rain.

Looking at the structure of the main hall, it inherits the bright essence of the sun and the moon. The meteors are galloping in the steep cliffs, and the wild geese are chasing back to the pavilion.

The belt is decorated with dragon patterns, and the lotus flowers are in full bloom. Looking at the tower of Zhuolong, I can see the garden of Yong'an.

The pavilion is clear and swampy for boating, with floating green dragons and black tortoises. The mulberry palace and the cocoon pavilion are divided into districts with rules.

The queen led the nine concubines and personally instructed the maids. Nearby were the Mingtang, Biyong, and Lingtai, where the ancestral worship spread the culture and everything was observed. Behind them were Changgang Mangfu, which was affiliated with Shoushan, Tonggu and Ke, and Shise Kanquan.

So he took advantage of his mood to sing and harmonize, and followed the rhythm to make his voice strong, with a green canopy and a square dragon. He was supported by the five roads and took the power of the three stars. Fu Yue was his servant, and Xihe served as his servant.

Thousands of chariots thundered, tens of thousands of riders spread out like stars. They followed one after another, waving foam and leaving. The immortals lined up in the courtyard, sending out the mighty fish and dragons, and the Xianmen beat drums and commanded the troops. They lectured on military matters during the farming off-season, and went hunting in the fields.

Search the deep forests to gather birds, stir up the rivers to ward off beasts. Ride a yellow horse and shoot the wandering elk. The bow is never in vain, and the eyes are never in vain.

Unbuttoning the armpits and splitting the mind, responding to the arrows and killing the barbarians. Then calming down and relaxing, on the bank of the green water, hanging fragrant bait into the clear stream, and catching the hidden fish in the whirlpool.

--------

According to later research by historians, among all the poems and essays written by Qin Ershi in his lifetime, this one has the most serious language style and the most solemn writing.

If there were no historical evidence, it would be hard for later generations to imagine that this poem was actually written to the emperor's first wife, Empress Feng. Because judging from the rhetoric and wording, it looks more like a sacrificial text written to an ancestor or even dedicated to the gods.
-
The emperor chose to treat the empress with respect, viewing her as his ally rather than treating her as some kind of dependent of his, which in itself was an epoch-making progress.

Instead of using worthless words like love to express his feelings for the Queen which will fade away with time, it is better to use some real substance and tell everyone in the world how important the Queen is to the empire and her status in the Emperor's mind.

The New Year is coming soon, and this time the princes’ trip to Xianyang City was not in vain, as they can actually catch up with the freshest and hottest dog food, which is the only one in a thousand years, so it is a great blessing.

Fusu's political goal was achieved, and the subjects reacted strongly to the fact that the emperor wrote a love letter to the queen.
