Chapter 350: Feudalism
The lush forests and the gentle breeze on the lake should be a hot July, but because of the perfect structure of the building and the full use of nature's freshness to regulate the temperature, it is more comfortable than blowing the air conditioner in the house in the later generations. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
On the large pavilion, An Yifei sat with Pei Min and other three unique people who were no longer crazy, "Behind the prosperity is a hidden danger, the chaos after the end of the Han Dynasty until the Sui and Tang dynasties were brought to an end, which involved the struggle between the scholars and the common people, but many people don't know the reason." The scholars based on Confucianism were suppressed by Taizong and others in the current dynasty, and now they are in a state of lurking, and the day of rebound is not far off."
What he said, of course, was the "Anshi Rebellion" that lasted for a short time, and in the final analysis, it was the counterattack of the nobles and chaebols, and the division of feudal towns in the late Tang Dynasty was also caused by a contest between different ideas.
"How so? You mean there's going to be a big mess? The three must not believe it, although the so-called Kaiyuan prosperous era is the foundation laid during the Wu Zetian period. But Li Longji is also a clear-headed emperor, as for the ideological and academic struggle, the struggle between the imperial family and the scholarly family, it is a problem that has not been completely solved since the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, and the three of them know it, but they did not expect any chaos.
"The Shi clan gate valve suffered the blows of Li Shimin and other generations, which brought prosperity to the Tang Dynasty and also buried the crisis. The people of the Central Plains supported the royal family and were reluctant to oppose it, but some people could use the foreign border army. Any mistake of the emperor will be caught by them, crowned with various hats, and become the culprit of the unrest"
Saying these words, An Yifei is actually also thinking about his own federation, although the An family has been symbolized politically and has become the representative of the Pandora Federation, but the An consortium is too concentrated, and after the agents are stable, they will gradually form their own small circle, and they will be fine when they are there, but it will inevitably affect federal politics and other aspects in the future, seeking greater power and interests.
Li Shimin said that "taking history as a mirror" is true in ancient and modern times. As the leader of the country, he also needs to find a way to stop the politics of the Pandora Federation and finally embark on the path of solidification. The simplest comparison is that the United States, which seems to be very democratic, but behind it is the excesses of the major chaebols who determine the direction of politics and economy, and in the 21st century, the so-called "elite politics" that has emerged is actually a copy of the ancient plutocratic economy, and in the process of competing with the people for resources, the root cause of the chaos has been deeply buried.
Pei Min is a military strategist, of course he understands politics, "An Dalang's words are inappropriate, the snake is not headless, the royal family is also from those warrior clans, and the way of selection is war and troubled times." Leaders are chosen from among many families, and the kingdom is born. If you have a country and no home, you will inevitably be in chaos."
As a person of this era, the concept of "family world" brought by Confucianism is already deep-rooted. An Yifei knew that it was useless to refute, and knew that the subsequent "division of feudal towns" was also a marathon elimination match between large and small families. This period of history finally allowed the dynasties after the Song Dynasty to completely abandon "feudalism" and engage in centralized power.
At the same time, the feudal town was also caused by the proliferation of the Tang Dynasty's idea of restoring Zhou rites, and large and small lords reappeared on the land of China. The emperors after Li Longji did not have the eloquence of their ancestors, but they continued the Tang Dynasty for nearly two hundred years again by raising the banner of "Zhou Li". Compared with the Song Dynasty and so on, it is still one of the strongest dynasties.
Thinking of this, An Yifei replied meaningfully: "That's not necessarily. Compared with those short-lived small imperial courts that engaged in centralization, the state and the family existed at the same time, and the Zhou Dynasty was, and existed for nearly a thousand years. This will be the case for a long time to come."
These words did not get Pei Min's approval. It was not until much later, when the feudal town appeared, that Liu Zongyuan compiled the article "On Feudalism" based on the conversations recorded by Pei Min's disciples, trying to refute An Yifei's view of "building a feudal feud".
……
After bidding farewell to the ancient people who were getting more and more difficult to talk about, An Yifei continued to take Cai Yan and others south, and planned to end the tour after enjoying the beautiful scenery of today's Suzhou.
The two women in the Spring and Autumn Period, Ji and Mao, were very supportive of An Yifei's "feudal" views, and everyone on the road started a discussion as the basis for An Yifei to revise the structure of the An consortium.
"I think the historical books compiled and revised in the Song Dynasty have a clear bias against the feudal system in the late Tang Dynasty. The charm of the Tang Dynasty can not only look at Li Shimin, Wu Zetian, etc. in the early stage, but also in this standard feudal system in the middle and late periods. Compared to the Song in a corner of the country, Tang is very powerful."
Ji's words were recognized by An Yifei, "When Li Shimin was there, he was forced to sign the Weishui Alliance. However, during the period of the feudal towns, the Tang Dynasty continued to fight foreign wars, successively defeating the Uighurs and Cochins, and won countless victories, expanding its territory. If you look at the history of the Song Dynasty again, this small centralized court, except for failure, is failure."
Da Qiao was moved: "The concept of Han nationality, more than half of the sense of honor comes from the Tang Dynasty. After the Jin people occupied the Central Plains, they changed history beyond recognition, and over-crossed the side effects of the feudal towns."
Ji finally looked at An Yifei, "Fei, the An Consortium is now a super economic empire, how will it develop in the future, the system is very important, do you plan to be feudal?" ”
Looking at the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River outside the carriage, An Yifei nodded, "Pandora is now a constitutional monarchy, which means that the power is in the people, and I am not worried about politics." But the plate of the Ahn consortium is huge, and I am hesitating. Whether to assign them to the children to manage, or to continue with the surrogate model. The former is feudal, while the latter is like centralization. But in the end, it is those agents who gradually grow and form a situation of dominance."
Mao Yan had long been aware of the situation and persuaded: "You can let them learn first, complete feudalism will cause a piece of scattered sand." The Ann Consortium is here today by relying on your cohesion, and the foundation is not very strong today, so it is better to be cautious."
Cai Yan picked up the conversation and said: "It's better to compromise, give them funds, each expand their own industries, and assign them to the An's consortium, just like the expansion of the territory of the dynasty." It's easy to see who is strong and who is bad."
Including An Yifei, everyone nodded in agreement with this suggestion, "good way"
……
The strength of the Tang Dynasty, as seen along the way, also lies in its revival of science and technology in the Spring and Autumn Period. The forging process of swords far exceeded that of the Han Dynasty, and the agricultural tools were also very advanced, and these agricultural tools can still be seen in the countryside in later generations.
Walking on the streets of Suzhou, you can see silk with advanced manufacturing and dyeing technology, snow-white paper, and even glasses and simple ship models. In terms of the types of goods alone, it surpasses Chang'an City, which is dominated by simple trade.
After chartering the courtyard of an inn, the women went to sweep the street again, and An Yifei went to the street to find a lot of wild history, legends and other books.
Yuhuan and Zhen Mi didn't wear masks, and followed An Yifei around. Since the beginning of this era, Jiangnan architecture has different characteristics from the north, most of them are brick houses, and the structure is the style that the building deliberately imitates, plus the banners all over the street, etc., there is already the feeling of "Qingming Riverside Map".
In terms of language, today's accent also makes An Yifei feel intimate, that is, similar to the dialect of his hometown, and even he can fluently use the dialect of his hometown to bargain with the shopkeepers.
"Brother Fei, look", the corner of her clothes was pulled by the jade ring, An Yifei followed her eyes and looked out, and saw a shackled, unkempt woman in the distance, led by two tolerances, looking like she was on the way to exile, and the wide prison uniform did not cover her super powerful "career", no wonder it did not attract the attention of Xiao Lori.
This female prisoner also attracted the attention of many passers-by, and one of the people dressed as a scholar said "Huh" and whispered to his companion beside him: "This can't be Li Zhi, who was sentenced to exile in Bohai some time ago because of his loss of women's morality, right?" ”
His companion also said "Huh" and responded in a low voice: "Is that the Li Jilan who wrote 'Chaoyun Duyu Town accompany, and the people who go to Yanlai have a return date'?" ”
With An Yifei's ears, of course he heard these words, but what made him feel strange was that this woman seemed to have practiced physical skills, and thought, "Why don't you run away?" ”
But he soon learned that although the needle behind her was hidden under her prison uniform, it could not escape the detection of the water elementals.
"Zero, help me find out how many legendary novels of the Tang Dynasty, I see that these works are not abruptly written, this era is really a bit strange. There are indeed unknown masters."
"Host, this is an era similar to the proliferation of online novels, even if there are more than 100 records by later generations, I am afraid it is difficult to count"
"Well, I'm afraid we have the material to make a movie, this woman is blocked by someone. That is, pulse amputation, which makes me curious. I'm afraid that the exercises left by my cheap teacher originated from these people."
After leading the two Loli into an alley, An Yifei sent the two of them to the mysterious world. Then he quickly changed into a modern "black man" outfit, and after the two tolerances reacted, he ejected his hook claws, hugged the woman's waist and fled away, leaving only the exclamations of the streets.
……
Throw the woman directly into a waterhole in the mysterious world, because the smell on her body is so bad that I am afraid that she will stay in prison for a long time.
When he was embarrassed by the needle that sealed her skills, he took it down by the way. After the woman entered the water, she recovered after a long time, shaking her long hair, revealing a very beautiful face.
But then, An Yifei saw what a female man in the Tang Dynasty was like, the woman didn't say a word, she rushed forward and planned to flatten people, but she still shouted in her mouth: "Who made you do this extra thing, why didn't you let me die?" ”
At this moment, An Yifei had an illusion, like meeting a little sister on the streets of New York. Because the woman's prison uniform has been opened now, the "goods" inside can be seen at a glance, but she is still attacking as if she doesn't know.
An Yifei had the idea of teasing her, and the surrounding water elements continued to increase the air resistance and drop the temperature under his command, and the woman gradually panted like a cow, and finally sat back in the pool, "Don't fight, it's even more difficult than that guy"
