I was watching short videos and was seen by ancient people

Chapter 335: Wang Mang, the emperor who most resembles a time traveler in history

Chapter 335 The emperor who is most like a time traveler in history——Wang Mang

[In 9 AD, Wang Mang, the emperor who was suspected of traveling through time, overthrew the Western Han Dynasty and proclaimed himself the emperor of the new dynasty, ushering in a history full of changes and disputes. 】

People from all dynasties were filled with surprise when they saw the video on the sky screen.

They had heard Wang Mang's legend, and although it was ridiculous, they never thought that these behaviors would be called time travelers by later generations.

But thinking about everything Wang Mang did, they somewhat accepted this statement.

After all, in their era, no emperor would design short skirts for his wives. It was simply a bad trend.

Qin Dynasty.

Qin Shihuang watched the video on the sky screen and felt extremely ridiculous.

Ever since he learned about the time traveler on the sky screen, he had been searching Daqin, but he had never found one.

However, as he learned more and more about Tianmu, he became more and more hopeful that people from later generations could travel through time.

It wasn't until System 9527 contacted him that he saw hope again.

What people didn't expect was that he actually existed in the late Western Han Dynasty and became the emperor.

This also gave Qin Shihuang a sense of crisis. It was not that he was afraid of time travellers.

But he was afraid that Fusu's character would not be able to suppress these people.

What's more, they know history. After traveling to the Qin Dynasty, some people will definitely want to cause chaos, or even seek refuge with Liu Bang or the survivors of the Six Kingdoms.

Especially Liu Bang, now that future generations know that he established the Han Dynasty after the fall of the Qin Dynasty, they will definitely not give up his embrace.

Thinking of this, Qin Shihuang once again urged people to find Liu Bang.

He finally unified the six kingdoms and unified the world, but he did not want anyone to rebel against the Great Qin he established.

In Qin Shihuang's view, if those descendants of later generations traveled to the Qin Dynasty, it would be fine if they were peaceful. If they were not peaceful, that would be their death!

Liu Ji, who was working as the pavilion chief in Peixian County, had settled down after reading the history of the Han Dynasty.

He has recognized the fact that the Great Qin of today is no longer the Great Qin of the past. If he dares to take any extraordinary action, what awaits him will be Thunder's action.

Especially when it came to changing his name to Liu Bang, he was even more afraid.

And as Tianmu introduced more and more to the Han Dynasty, he felt that something was getting more and more wrong with the Qin Dynasty, and a storm could come at any time!

He could only shrink his neck and lower his head, fearing that others would recognize him as the founder of the Han Dynasty.

Han Dynasty.

Liu Bang was walking in his palace, feeling very angry.

He did not expect that the Han Dynasty he established would be overthrown like this.

As for the statement on the sky screen that Wang Mang was a time traveler, Liu Bang sneered. He did not think that future generations of descendants could sit on the throne if they traveled through time.

I don't believe that Wang Mang can govern the country well.

But thinking of his own body and Queen Lu, Liu Bang sighed.

Although he knew the result of the big man, he had no way to change it.

He could only hope that future generations would be able to strengthen themselves and change the outcome of the Han Dynasty.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che looked at the video on the sky screen and felt very angry.

This is a big man. The big man who attacked the Xiongnu was knocked down by a time traveler. It is really disappointing.

However, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che also began to think about the various problems that had arisen in the Han Dynasty. He wanted to reform the Han Dynasty after Huo Qubing and Wei Qing returned to the court.

Thinking of this, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che became curious. What innovations did Wang Mang make to make everyone rebel?

Emperors of other dynasties watched the video about Wang Mang on the sky screen, and they felt very complicated.

Wang Mang can not only be evaluated in terms of good or bad in history. Like Yang Guang, he was too eager for success, which led to betrayal and separation.

If the two of them can implement their plan slowly, I am afraid that their achievements will not be lower than that of Emperor Qin and Han Wu.

As for Wang Mang being a time traveler, they didn't believe it.

If he was really a time traveler with so many technologies from later generations, I'm afraid he wouldn't have ended up like this.

What's more, if you don't even use something as important as the four great inventions, you are no longer a time traveler.

However, the sky screen did not care about the thoughts of each dynasty. It continued to broadcast the life of the time traveler Wang Mang.

[Wang Mang’s ruling style was unique. He tried to reform the social system through a series of new policies.

From the land system to the servitude policy to the loan system, everything reflects his forward thinking.

However, these reforms aroused dissatisfaction among the nobles and common people, and various ethnic groups on the border refused to surrender and rebelled one after another.

In 11 AD, the Huns united with other ethnic groups to invade, and the border of the New Dynasty was in crisis.

Internal struggles for power, the split of the ruling group, and Wang Mang's family members rebelled one after another, making the new dynasty even more turbulent.

In 17 AD, uprisings broke out frequently in various places, and the people were overwhelmed and started to rise up one after another.

By AD 22, peasant rebel armies such as the Green Forest Army and the Red Eyebrow Army were flourishing, and the rule of the new dynasty was already in danger.

In 23 AD, Gengshi Emperor Liu Xuan was proclaimed emperor and established the Xuanhan regime, and Wang Mang's new dynasty also came to an end.

In the Battle of Kunyang, Wang Mang's main force was eliminated, Chang'an City was captured, Wang Mang was killed, and the new dynasty perished.

Subsequently, Emperor Gengshi Liu Xuan was defeated by Liu Xiu after two years in office. In 25 AD, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu established the Eastern Han Dynasty. 】

People from all dynasties saw the video on the sky screen and watched Wang Mang, known as the time traveler, fail like this, and they also learned their lessons.

It seems that people in later generations are not omnipotent. Even if they become emperors, what they do must be in line with the interests of all classes. Otherwise, they will just be like Wang Mang and betray their relatives.

But thinking about the various technical videos on the sky screen, they also longed for future generations to travel through and change their dynasty.

After all, there are still many things they don’t understand about the later books they bought on Tianmu, and they hope to get answers from future generations.

Qin Dynasty.

Qin Shihuang looked at Wang Mang's life and felt that the time traveler was unreliable to the country after crossing over.

Maybe they have some outstanding insights, maybe they have rich knowledge, but when it comes to the entire country, they are not gods.

And the development of Da Qin cannot rely on them, but those who can rely on the children of the Mohist family.

Thinking of this, Qin Shihuang issued an imperial edict to the Mohist disciples, asking them to prepare for the arrival of a group of "masters".

After the children of the Mo family received the imperial edict, they were a little confused.

Who in the entire Great Qin didn't know that the best technology was in their Mohist Academy.

The only people who can understand the technology on the sky screen are the children of the Mo family.

How can people from other schools of thought be their masters if they don’t understand shit?

I am afraid that only future generations can be their masters.

After the Mohist giant heard the imperial edict, he had the same idea.

In his opinion, even if there are people who are more skilled than their Mohist disciples, there are probably not many people in this world.

But if those few people were arranged to come over and be their masters, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to issue an imperial edict.

The more the Mohist giant thought about it, the more wrong it became, and the more he felt that there was something wrong in it.

He thought of Wang Mang and the word time traveler.

So much so that he had a bold hypothesis that there would be time travelers appearing in Da Qin in the near future. But then he rejected his idea. After all, how could such a bizarre thing as descendants traveling to Da Qin be realized?

Han Dynasty.

Liu Bang looked at the video on the sky screen, and he felt very happy.

He knew that an ambitious person like Wang Mang would definitely be pushed out of office.

Especially when he knew that Liu Xiu established the Eastern Han Dynasty, he felt even more happy.

This big man was built by himself, how could he not be the same and continue to exist forever.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che watched the video on the sky screen and felt a little regretful as he watched Wang Mang's series of reform policies, which ultimately pushed him against the people.

Although Wang Mang usurped the throne of the Han Dynasty, his desire to change the structure of the entire society is still very impressive.

It's a pity that everything he did was so deviant that the people couldn't accept it.

At the same time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che also realized that although Wang Mang seemed to be on the throne, he was afraid that he did not have much military power, otherwise he would not be overthrown.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che was even more cautious about his plans to reform the Han Dynasty.

He didn't want the big man who had just attacked the Huns to end up like this.

Three Kingdoms period.

Cao Cao curled his lips when he saw the video on the sky screen.

Everything Wang Mang did was really deserved.

Although his reforms seemed to be for the sake of national government, they also seriously affected the interests of others, especially those of aristocratic families.

Those aristocratic families, even Cao Cao, did not dare to go too far, let alone Wang Mang, who had no foundation.

However, the current Wei State is no longer the Wei State of the past. If those aristocratic families are disobedient, he does not mind killing the chickens to scare the monkeys.

Sui Dynasty.

Yang Guang looked at the video on the sky screen with disdain in his heart.

Although Wang Mang was called a time traveler by later generations, he was not considered successful as an emperor.

That emperor would ban the slave trade and establish state-owned enterprises.

Land was also nationalized, low-rent housing was built, prices were uniformly controlled, and vernier calipers were even invented to unify standards.

He felt that Wang Mang was more like those craftsmen and thought that the world was very simple.

But this world is a society of people, so it is inevitable that people have different interests.

Everything he did seemed to be for the country, but in fact it harmed the interests of others.

But he is different. He values ​​his own interests more and does not care about the interests of others.

This world belongs to him. If anyone dares to disobey his life, let him see what a thunderous strike is.

Moreover, he inherited the throne from Yang Jian, which was legitimate, unlike Wang Mang who usurped the throne.

Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin looked at the video on the marquee. He asked people to find information about Wang Mang's reforms and the various reforms he had done on the marquee.

Datang has been in peace for four weeks, and now it needs more domestic reforms.

He did not hope that there would be another female emperor in the Tang Dynasty, nor did he hope that someone would usurp the throne in his own Tang Dynasty.

Moreover, those aristocratic families are very powerful. If they don't find a way to reduce their strength, I'm afraid it will also be a disaster.

Although many of the contents of Wang Mang's reforms were not applicable to the Tang Dynasty, there were also lessons to be learned.

As for being boycotted by aristocratic families and common people after the reform, Li Shimin was not afraid.

He doesn't want to be like Wang Mang. He controls the political power of the country and also controls the military power of the country, and he can't help those who cause trouble.

And if the Tang Dynasty does not reform now, how can it occupy a wider area.

Whether it was Nanyang or the broader New World, in Li Shimin's view, this was already within Datang's pocket.

Song.

When Zhao Kuangyin saw the video on the sky screen, he also fell into deep thought.

Like Wang Mang, he usurped the throne and took the throne.

The difference is that he was forced to take the throne by those military generals, while Wang Mang took the throne without any foundation.

But Zhao Kuangyin knew that if he was really like Wang Mang, the result would not be any different.

Those generals were able to put him on the throne for the sake of glory and wealth.

If you don't give them glory and wealth, it will simply force them to rebel.

In Zhao Kuangyin's view, the national conditions of the Song Dynasty were also different from those of the late Western Han Dynasty. Now it was more appropriate to mobilize the whole country to regain the 16 states of Yanyun.

Instead of thinking about how to reform the country's policies and plunge the country into turmoil.

Instead of trying to weaken the power of all parties, it is better to find a way to gather the power of all parties and let them jointly regain the Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures.

Zhao Zhen watched the video on the marquee, reflecting on his Qingli reform.

Although the Qingli Reform increased the strength of the Song Dynasty, there were still some hidden risks.

But with the broadcast of the video on the marquee, the people gained more knowledge.

Various technical videos have made people ignore these things due to the rapid development of society.

However, one day these risks will explode and break the current tranquility.

So what can the Song Dynasty do now? It can only transfer the risk to the battlefield of recovering the 16 Yanyun states, and to the wider territory overseas.

At the same time, Zhao Zhen also hopes that these future generations of time travelers can find ways to change the current Song Dynasty and make the Song Dynasty more prosperous and powerful.

tomorrow.

Zhu Yuanzhang watched the video on the sky screen and watched Wang Mang's turbulent life. He was very unfazed by people like Wang Mang who were duplicitous.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's view, since Wang Mang was an important minister in the Western Han Dynasty, he should assist the Han Dynasty rather than usurp the throne.

What he did was simply treasonous and a challenge to the orthodox throne. The result he got was that everyone was betrayed and separated from his relatives. He simply deserved it!

Moreover, during Wang Mang's reign, a series of radical reforms were carried out, although they were intended to resolve social conflicts and restore the well-field system.

However, he was out of touch with reality and acted too hastily, which only exacerbated social unrest and economic chaos.

Eventually, public dissatisfaction boiled over and uprisings continued in various places.

How could such an idealistic person sit on the throne?

In Zhu Yuanzhang's view, the most important thing for an emperor is not advanced policies, but formulating policies based on national conditions and responding to public opinion.

Only in this way will people be willing to follow.

And he was able to assume the supreme defense position at the end of the Yuan Dynasty because he complied with public opinion.

Let the common people get rid of the heavy oppression.

The same consideration was given to granting those vassal kings overseas.

Since they are moths in the Ming Dynasty, why not let them go overseas to fight cholera?
