Chapter 588: The Era Restoration
"Your Majesty, you finally remembered the matter of the year name...... "Xun Yue, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, said excitedly, this period has been said two years ago, Liu Tao said that you need to think about it, so this consideration is now.
It's not that I haven't mentioned it, and I even talked to the ministers about this issue, and in the end, it was unconsciously delayed until now, and it was not determined.
"The main thing is that there are so many enemies around, if there is no relatively comfortable development environment, I don't plan to change the yuan." Liu Tao replied, "And...... Originally, I was thinking about whether to start according to the era of the Yellow Emperor and keep recording it.
The Chinese nation should be a unified nation, no matter whether the dynasty is changed, whether the emperor is changed, the first thing we should remember is how the Chinese nation came to be, no matter how we fight, the Chinese nation will not change. ”
Why Chu Han is very unpopular, in the final analysis, this is the problem.
If the state of Chu wins, then the whole world will be Chu people from now on. The country established by the traverser, as long as it is not Han, is super unaccustomed. You can choose Liu Bang, then it's good to follow the steps, and it's not interesting at all. So instead of writing Chu Han, it is better to write Chu Han directly.
The concept that the Han people represent the Han nationality, anyway, the Ming Dynasty definitely didn't have it, who dares to say that he is a Han person, Zhu Yuanzhang can't spare him in the first place. After all, his old rival Chen Youliang established the Han State, so the self-proclaimed Han people, Han Jun and Han Chen should be suspicious.
However, the previous Yuan Dynasty called the Chinese people north of the Yellow River who had passed through the Liao and Jin kingdoms as Han people, which should be the first to replace the Han people......
According to Liu Tao's meaning, don't be entangled in what nationality is not ethnic, don't talk about blood, talk about culture. Everyone is from the Chinese civilization circle, so everyone is a Chinese nation, wouldn't it be good?
At the same time, I also hope that through this method, I will tell future generations that 'no matter how you fight, you must first understand that you are fighting a civil war.' You are dealing not only with your enemies, but also against your countrymen.'"
At least in terms of civil wars and wars of aggression, the distinction is good. lest the brothers break the wall, but they cheapen the foreign robbers in vain.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, everyone still understood that once the Hu people invaded, any war would be put down and the outside world would be unanimous.
Why did you gradually forget this excellent tradition after the end of the Han Dynasty? Is it because the Northern and Southern Dynasties blurred the boundaries between inside and outside, or is it a hidden danger buried by the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms? Or is it because the concept of 'nation' has never been put forward in the true sense of the word?
"Your Majesty's idea is indeed unique......" Xun Yue was stunned when she heard this, and it seemed to make sense after thinking about it.
The main thing is that Liu Tao, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, has changed too many things from the succession to the present. Gradually, everyone seems to be getting used to it, especially the things that change, gradually prove to be useful, and when it is better, everyone gradually believes in him.
"It's just...... The Yellow Emperor calendar itself is a commonly used era in Han history. Xun Yue reminded.
"That's it......" Liu Tao knew about this thing for the first time.
Only after careful inquiry did I know that the "Hanshu Legal Calendar System" recorded the ancient six calendars of the first dynasties, namely the Yellow Emperor calendar, the Zhuan calendar, the Xia calendar, the Yin calendar, the Zhou calendar and the Lu calendar. Moreover, during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Yellow Emperor calendar was used......
At the same time, the era name was originally not available, and it was also created by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. The era name and the calendar do not conflict, they are things that can be paralleled. If Liu Tao wants to use the Yellow Emperor calendar, he can ask the historian to rearrange it.
As for the era name, it doesn't matter if you keep it. In the final analysis, the era chart is an auspicious rui, or a hope of the emperor, a wish or something.
"That's what I said, but look at the era numbers gathered below." Liu Tao flipped through it and spread out the era names that he had collected from officials from all over the world in front of Xun Yue. hacker
He didn't have any idea of the era name, and he didn't want to have anything to do with religious ghosts. After thinking about a few, I felt that it was not very good, and finally Guo Jia suggested that it would be better to let officials at all levels give advice, and then choose the most suitable one?
Not to mention before, it is actually being collected now, after all, the day and year name have not been decided, so this edict is valid. Of course, the officials below also hope that the era name they come up with can be used, so they will send one from time to time.
So after deducting the same era name, the era name in Liu Tao's hand is also a mountain.
"Yonghan's era name is not bad......" Xun Yue flipped through it briefly, and then took out one of them.
"Dismissed!" Liu Tao refused without thinking about it.
In history, this is the first era name after Liu Xie succeeded to the throne, the first era name of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Tao instinctively resisted.
The main young emperor has succeeded to the throne and changed the name of Guangxi. Liu Xie did not succeed to the throne, he succeeded to the throne, and at this time he used the era name Yonghan, which was not only very strange, but also had an unlucky feeling.
"What about Jian'an?" Xun Yue flipped through it, this era name was provided by Cao Cao.
"I'm very en......tangled in this era name," Liu Tao replied, this era name is the first era name taken by Cao Cao after welcoming the Son of Heaven to Xu, and it is also the third era name of Liu Xie's reign, almost used until the eve of the Zen throne, a full twenty-five years.
"That's an alternative...... After all, 'Jian'an' is not quite consistent with the current Han. "Xun Yue didn't get too entangled, after all, if it was when Liu Tao first ascended the throne, it would be fine, and now that the situation is clear, 'Jian'an' is a bit inconsistent.
flipped through it casually, and then took out another one, which was given by Wang Kuang: "Linghe's era name is good, and the government decree is peaceful." ”
"Dismissed!" Liu Tao didn't hesitate at all, and wanted to say how this thing got in. But it's not too entangled, after all, the era of "Wanyoji" has not yet appeared, and it is estimated that everyone is going for the 'government decree and peace'.
Come to think of it, the most lacking thing now is people, and the transmission and implementation of government decrees are slightly insufficient. But if you want to take this era name, Liu Tao is physically and psychologically unacceptable.
"This can't work......" Xun Yue was embarrassed, this majesty was too difficult to serve.
I simply flipped a few more, and the previous ones were about the same, basically I didn't care, the old part, basically there was no suitable one, and I could only find it in the new batch.
Finally, he found one and asked excitedly, "Your Majesty, how about this?" ”
"Restoration? The year name of Xu Shu's book? That's right, I haven't paid much attention to them since the imperial examination......" Liu Tao saw the word Restoration, and subconsciously thought of the XX Restoration, which had the meaning of changing the law and reforming.
"These two words come from the Book of Songs, Daya, King Wen, and the original text is 'Although Zhou is an old state, its life is renewed'." Xun Yue saw that Liu Tao was moving, so he struck while the iron was hot, "Changing the old law and implementing the new policy is for the sake of reform." His Majesty succeeded to the throne and made a lot of changes in governance, military and political affairs, people's livelihood and craftsmanship. Thanks to His Majesty's changes, the Han court flourished and was full of vitality, and the word "Restoration" is also appropriate. ”
To put it simply, the Restoration is the XX change that was often seen in historical documents in the past, but the words are different. But the era name is indeed better than the reform.
"So, use this era name?" Liu Tao estimated that he was really lame by Xun Yue, so he agreed in a daze.
The next day, the court mentioned a loss, and as a result, the ministers were titled, and finally announced that the next year would begin, which would be the first year of the Restoration.
