The six-dimensional pictures of emperors of all dynasties were exposed, and the ancestors panicked
Chapter 491: The insecure old Zhu and the overly secure Liu Bang
Chapter 491: The Insecure Old Zhu and the Overly Secure Liu Bang
Cao Wei.
"Mr. Zhuge, there is something I don't understand."
Cao Cao was full of doubts.
"Zhu Yuanzhang's decree was to protect the people from being harmed by the powerful."
"Why are the words of these descendants full of resentment?"
Liu Bei did have some vague understanding, but he couldn't say it out loud.
He also looked at Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang looked up at the sky and said hesitantly:
"The so-called three dynasties have different principles, and the five hegemons have different laws."
"Since King Wu defeated King Zhou and Duke Zhou established laws, the systems of successive dynasties have been based on taking advantage of others' strengths and making up for their weaknesses."
"Zhu Yuanzhang rose from humble origins, and was able to conquer the world because he joined the uprising army."
"Now that he is the emperor, he is trying his best to prevent history from repeating itself."
Zhuge Liang felt sorry that such a great man could not see the vast world.
With some regret, he said:
"His laws are indeed good for the people."
"But this kind of kindness is unreasonable."
"If I'm good to you, you should be grateful."
"The tight system has turned the country into a cage, which will bring the entire country to a standstill."
"Looking at the Tang Dynasty, we can see that the hearts of nations are easily changed."
"Looking at the Song Dynasty, we can see that the laws of our ancestors are difficult to follow."
"Looking at the Yuan Dynasty, we can see how vast the world is."
"The Central Plains are static while foreign races are mobile."
"I'm afraid... the changing situation of offense and defense in the world mentioned by later generations originated from Zhu Yuanzhang..."
Sun Quan frowned.
"Prime Minister Zhuge... isn't this a bit alarmist?"
Liu Bei, who had already let himself go, said without even turning his head:
"If you don't want to listen, get out of here."
"you!"
Sun Quan looked at Liu Bei's clenched fist, flicked his sleeves and said nothing.
Zhuge Liang nodded and said:
"Liang's words do sound like groundless worries."
"But putting all the clues together, this is the only explanation that makes sense."
“Why do later generations admire his achievements but despise his laws?”
"Because the next dynasty also inherited this system, so..."
"and many more!"
Liu Bei suddenly shuddered. He was not distracted at all? !
How come something is left behind?
"The next dynasty?"
"Kong Ming, you didn't mention the next dynasty?"
Zhuge Liang's expression froze.
"The changes in the household registration system from the Qin and Han dynasties to the Tang and Song dynasties and then to the Ming and Qing dynasties..."
Liu Bei looked confused and Sun Quan was at a loss.
Although Cao Cao had an I-knows-what expression on his face, he couldn't hide the shock in his eyes.
"...So the three of you didn't remember anything at all..."
Somehow, the three of them suddenly recalled the feeling of being asked questions by their teacher when they were in school.
……
【Originally, after becoming emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang should relax and enjoy his life as an emperor.】
[Strangely, he felt that the burden on him was getting heavier and heavier, so heavy that he had to be alert all the time.]
[Even when entertaining his ministers with singing and dancing, he never forgot to strike back at them.]
【As the saying goes, the butt determines the head. 】
[But Zhu Yuanzhang always seemed to feel that the dragon throne under his buttocks was shaking. ]
……
Big man.
"It's not that the throne is shaking, it's that this person's heart is restless."
Liu Bang swung his legs and said weakly:
"A homeless person suddenly became the most noble person in the world."
"He panicked."
The three people in the hall seemed to be hearing divine scriptures.
Emperor!
From the lowest to the highest!
Why are you panicking?!
Liu Bang knew what these three were thinking at a glance.
"Humph, it took hundreds of years for the Zhou emperor to lose power before the princes dared to claim the throne."
"This is due to the lack of military power and the fear of the royal family who were given a mandate from heaven."
“When you get something you never thought you would get, you will start to worry about gains and losses.”
Liu Ying opened his mouth to ask, but was blocked by Liu Bang.
"It's different, Mr.
"Man, that's how it should be!"
"I deserve everything in the world!"
It seemed like Lu Zhi scolded him!
But she knew about his arrogant and shameless nature the first day she met him.
Who in their right mind would go to a banquet empty-handed and ask for a million-dollar gift, and then sit at the main table?
He can do it! ...
【Since ancient times, the loss of the country has been caused by foreign invasions and internal struggles. 】
[As the majority of the ruled, such as farmers, they will not rebel as long as there is a possible living space]
[In fact, there are always ambitious people in the bureaucracy who want to usurp the throne.]
[When the country was first established, the political system of the Ming Dynasty was largely inherited from the Yuan Dynasty]
[The Secretariat was established in the central government, with left and right prime ministers]
[The left and right prime ministers are in charge of the six ministries of Personnel, Revenue, Rites, Military Affairs, Criminal Law, and Works]
[In local areas, the Xingzhongshu Province was established to manage local military and political affairs. ]
[In this system, from the central level, most of the power is in the hands of the prime minister, and the local Xingzhongshu Province is in charge of military and political affairs and has great power.]
[This was naturally not satisfactory to Zhu Yuanzhang, who saw everyone as a thorn in his side.]
……
Great Sui.
"I smell a familiar scent!"
Dugu Jialuo rolled her eyes at him.
"You smell the shit!"
"Tianmu has said that he will take back the power!"
"Of course I won't let him come back easily."
Yang Jian was scolded for nothing but didn't dare to retort, so he changed the subject and said:
"Taking back power can be divided into civil and military."
Without waiting for Dugu Jialuo to raise her eyebrows, Yang Jian dared not keep the secret any longer and said bluntly:
"Wen Shou is like Zhao Kuangyin, Wu Shou is like me."
"But it all depends on Old Zhu's character."
"I'm afraid the word 'wu shou' can't describe it."
Dugu Jialuo snorted softly.
"You're recognizing people now."
"Unless he kills all the ministers, can he defeat you in martial arts?"
Yang Jian rolled his eyes secretly.
I really can’t say for sure.
……
【Zhu Yuanzhang attached great importance to historical experience. He often read history books and learned lessons from them. 】
[“After the appointment of the prime minister, the minister Zhang Jun showed his power and wealth, and the chaos started from Qin. The prime minister has great power and is so powerful that he calls a deer a horse.”]
【“Since the Qin Dynasty, all rulers of the country have failed to learn from the dangers of Qin’s appointment of prime ministers. Instead, the prime ministers have followed their orders, often causing harm to the rulers. The reason for this is that they have monopolized power and authority.”】
[He also summarized the reasons for the demise of the Yuan Dynasty, believing that one of them was "the appointment of powerful officials and the deception of the upper and lower levels"]
[Li Shanchang, then the Minister of the Left, caught his eye.]
……
{It doesn't matter if it's not pleasing to the eye. As the head of all officials, the prime minister is the leader of the bureaucracy and the literati, and is at the top of the bureaucratic organization.}
{This position holds the highest power and status under the emperor, and is close to the emperor's bed, so his position is very special.}
{It is not just because of his position as prime minister, but also because he is the leader of the Huaixi nobles.}
{The relationship between the emperor and his subjects is already very delicate, and the prime minister's special status and identity are more likely to cause suspicion from the emperor and lead to conflicts and frictions with the monarchy.}
{Nonsense, because when Li Shanchang was the prime minister, his principle of employing people was "no one other than the Huai River natives". Which emperor could tolerate such blatant behavior of recruiting cronies and excluding dissidents?}
{He is still obsessed with power. If he had stayed in Fengyang, he would have been fine. But he has cut off his only way to survive.}
……
Ming dynasty.
Zhu Yuanzhang had a gloomy face and deep eyes.
Such a big family business...
He is always worried that he will be overthrown one day.
The palace either belonged to someone else or was burned down.
His descendants, wives and concubines were either all killed or taken away as slaves.
Whenever he thought of this, he broke out in cold sweats.
Among all these princes, dukes and ministers in the imperial court, is there anyone who eats vegetarian food?
They all came here with blood licked from the blade!
They are all tough characters!
The so-called rites, ethics and morals are nothing but window dressing. They may fool mediocre people but not them.
Li Shanchang...
He thought of the documents sent from Fengyang some time ago.
You're well? You'd better stay ill.
Xiao He was able to humiliate himself and give in to Emperor Gaozu.
Can't you?
My Xiao He.
……
Qing Dynasty Yongzheng Period
The emperor played with the crystal clear snuff bottle in his hand and said calmly:
"During the Tang, Song, Yuan and Ming dynasties, those who were qualified to share the imperial power were not the common people or the powerful."
"It's the prime minister and the huge bureaucratic group behind him."
"They have knowledge and Confucianism as their common belief and code of conduct."
“Therefore, they have a stronger sense of group consciousness and integrity than other classes.”
"The prime minister is the center of the bureaucratic organization and the scholar-officials."
"This is bound to become a target of suspicion and precaution for Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty."
"Whoever sits in this position will die."
"Li Shanchang, Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty gave you a chance."
A glimmer of understanding flashed across Hongli's eyes.
The art of balance is like playing the piano.
Can't lean to the left, can't lean to the right.
It is too biased for a civil servant to be the head of all officials.
