Extra: Chao Wrong Article

At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the people of the world, who were already overwhelmed by the high-pressure policies of the former Qin, were tortured and dying by harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and were forced by the war and chaos of the Chu and Han dynasties, and fled to the mountains, with ten rooms and nine emptiness.

Emperor Gao ascended to the Ninth Five-Year Plan and opened the Han Dynasty, so he advertised the world: "The world has been bitter and violent for a long time, and the people are unbearable." Looking at the world, the city is ruined and broken, and the people have the pain of being displaced; It ordered the division to compile the households and the people, build the world's acres of land in the book, and grant the people the land lord. ”

Grant the field!

Is it a familiar style?

Just look at how much popular support the policy of sharing land with the peasants has won after the later attempts to engage in the movement of landlords and eat large households.

In a feudal society where most of the common people are ignorant, the effect of such a policy is no less than that of a nuclear bomb!

Relying on this sullen operation of "the cub sells Ye Tian's heart is not painful", the Han family was able to stabilize in an instant in that stormy era!

In order to avoid the war, many ordinary people who hid in the ravines and ravines obediently went down the mountain, went to the county government to board their names, and received the land deed of the high emperor's favor.

I have to say that in that era when there was no "deposing the hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone", Confucianism was still a little kid.

The ruling party is the protégé of the founding heroes Xiao He Zhoubo and Cao Shen Zhang Liang, that is, the Huang Lao School.

At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the world was turned upside down, the population decreased dramatically, and the dignified sons of heaven could not get together eight horses of the same color;

The prime minister even rode an ox cart in the court!

The price of grain in Guanzhong is even more than a thousand dollars with one stone, and the people are free from each other.

Rao is the ancestor of a dynasty, and he has won the world, and Liu Bang has no good way to do it.

- After all, he was an old man in his forties before he started the army, and before that he was just an old hooligan leader in the land of abundance, and he couldn't ask too much.

In such a special historical period, Huang Laoxue's core idea of "ruling by inaction and resting with the people" not only moved the state power layer, but also became a historical choice.

Under the leadership of Xiao He, Cao Shen and other powerful people, social order was gradually restored; The broken city was repaired, and the life of the common people gradually improved.

Then, relying on historical inertia, Huang Laoxue was able to become prominent until the Jingdi Dynasty.

The Legalist who became the implementer of "Violent Qin and Chaos in the World" in the mouth of Confucianism was whitewashed during the time of Emperor Wen-

In the first two years before the emperor, Emperor Taizong Xiaowen abolished the "law of coercion", the head of contemporary Confucianism, and even the power of "the bull's ear of the world's literature", from the war at the end of Qin, the collection of books and Huan, the relatively complete preservation of the "Shangshu" of Jinan Fusheng, in response to the call of the first emperor, is willing to offer the fragment of the book in the royal archives Shiqu Pavilion.

The first emperor Longyan Dayue had to send someone to teach - ancient writing used bamboo tubes, so the words were like gold, not that you can understand it when you get the book, someone has to explain it to you.

And the officials who were enthusiastic about taking this opportunity to study the lost "Shangshu" found that they couldn't understand what the other party was saying when they arrived at Fu Sheng's house······

During the Warring States period, the world was divided into seven points, and all countries did not speak languages, and even coins were varied!

Otherwise, Qin Shi Huang's 'cars are on the same track, books are on the same text' would not be so worthy of boasting.

As a pre-Qin doctor, Fu Sheng spoke a pure Zhou dialect: the language of the Zhou Dynasty nobles.

——The cold scholar and aristocrat of the Zhou room disdain to speak the same language as the mud legs!

In this case, the first emperor had no choice but to find someone who had no communication problems.

I really found a young talent with clear eyebrows, smart and clever, honest and capable.

The first emperor sent him to receive the "Book of Shang".

When he returned from teaching, he gave him a doctor of "Shangshu", planning to cultivate and cultivate.

Who would have thought that two years later, Jia Yi and Jia Changsha would be famous all over the world with a "Treatise on the Passage of Qin"!

That young talent was left behind by the first emperor and thrown to the prince who was "not like himself" at that time, and now Liu Qi, lest people in the world say that he favors one over the other.

And Jia, who is famous all over the world, was sent to his favorite son Liu Ji, the king of Liang, to teach him as the prince of Taifu.

This move once shook the storage position of today's son!

Later, King Liang accidentally fell from his horse and died, Jia Yi was ostracized by the court, demoted to the prince of Changsha, and finally died of depression.

When today's storage position is really as stable as Mount Tai.

When the first emperor looked back, he found that the young man who was thrown by the first emperor to the prince, who learned the "Book of Shang" under Fu Sheng, and the Confucian handsome man in the eyes of the world, had quietly grown into the prince's family order and became Liu Qi's right-hand man.

Under the condition that the storage position was stable at that time, there would be no accidents in the future, and the lowest achievement was also a henchman.

This made the Confucian scholars who were deeply disliked by the ruling class in the early Han Dynasty rush to tell each other, thinking that they could get through!

Unfortunately, no one asked the young man what he was learning...

Just because he learned the Confucian modern text "Shangshu", he automatically became a Confucian student.

And that little young man, the name of "Confucian Junjie" is Chao Cuo...

The Legalist later leader in the court!

Chao Cuo wore a Confucian vest to enter the palace, as Emperor Jing's mentor and confidant, and after accompanying Emperor Jing for most of his career as a prince, Emperor Jing inevitably became a supporter of Legalism by Amway.

Even if there is no Amway, the appeal of Legalism to rulers is unparalleled.

- Legalists advocate that the eating, drinking, and sleeping of the common people should be managed, and even if they make friends, they should obey the arrangements of the rulers!

And this kind of domineering thinking is natural for every king who wants to make a difference!

After Emperor Jing ascended the throne, in order to control the government as soon as possible, he appointed the prince's family Ling Chao as an internal official to resist the power; With the prince and Taizhong doctor Zhou Ren as the commander of Langzhong, as a guarantee of physical health (Langzhong, the head of the imperial doctor); With Zhidu as the Zhonglang general, he tried to meddle in the palace guards - the Zhonglang general with five senses, and he was in charge of the palace wall guard.

With this move, Emperor Jing was able to extract the military and political power from the hands of the court and the two empress dowagers of the harem (the Empress Dowager Dou and the Empress Dowager Bo), and completely controlled the political situation within one year of ascending the throne.

After taking power, among the original three close confidants, Zhou Ren was a favorite courtier; Zhi was sent to Jinan County to clean up, and in the hands of Emperor Jing, only Chao Cuo, that is, the teacher of Liu Qi, the son of heaven, was left to be useful.

When asked by Emperor Jing 'how to govern the country and make the people happy', the ideals that Chao Cuo had been suppressing in his heart emerged like a wild horse, and the views advocated by the Legalists such as enriching the country and strengthening the army, and securing the outside and the inside, blurted out.

As a legalist official who is proficient in power, art, and power, and is close to the peak of speculation in words and colors, and has worked with Emperor Jing for many years, how can he not know that Emperor Jing wants to go far ahead of his ancestors' ambitions?

Then he wrote: The internal hidden danger comes from the fact that the princes and kings have too much power; The external threat was the Huns, who were eyeing the Great Wall.

Therefore, we should first weaken the power of the princes and kings, stabilize the interior, and then make great efforts to fight a decisive battle with the Xiongnu and completely sweep away the external threat.

In this way, the internal and external troubles will be eliminated, the people will live and work in peace and contentment, and everyone will enjoy their own happiness, and the world will be prosperous!

Emperor Jing was already emotionally biased towards the Legalists, and when he heard that he was going to deal with the princes and kings, he thought of the imperial uncle Wu Wangbi who made him feel like a fish in his throat, and he was in favor of it.

Chao Cuo, who was allowed, was in full swing, and the book "Cutting the Domain" was handed over, sounding Emperor Jing's charge against the princes and kings of the Han family.

At that time, Prime Minister Shen Tujia, who had already experienced the chaotic generations of the Qin and Han dynasties, was worried that the world would be turbulent again, so he stiffened his neck and refused to use the seal on Emperor Jing's edict.

When Gaozu Liu Bang was dying, he deeply felt the importance of loyal ministers and capable officials to the country, and in order to prevent his descendants from making unremitting efforts, he stipulated: All major national policies can only be implemented by the emperor's edict.

Unlike the emperor's holy decrees, which could be issued indiscriminately by patting his buttocks, edicts were decrees issued to officials all over the world, similar to red-headed documents in later generations.

Even in later generations, red-headed documents require the signature of the Minister of State in addition to the top leader.

Similarly, in the Han Dynasty, the edict needed to be read and approved three times above the court, and then the prime minister approved and sealed it before it could officially have legal effect.

This is the source of the 'prime minister' that feudal kings feared: as long as the prime minister does not agree, if the emperor does not dismiss the prime minister, it is theoretically impossible to implement any policy.

It just so happened that Shen Tujia was the person who Emperor Jing couldn't stop!

Shen Tujia is one of the only remaining founding feats of the Jingdi Dynasty, and if you think about the veterans of the Red Army in later generations, you will know that it is impossible for Emperor Jing to do this kind of red fruit to express his 'unkind treatment of meritorious heroes' while ensuring that the court does not object.

In the end, Emperor Jing's patience with the increasingly stubborn Shen Tujia ran out, so he conspired with Chao Cuo and killed Shen Tujia in anger.

After the death of Shen Tujia, Emperor Jing completed a series of appointments almost on the same day, "worshipping the imperial historian Kaifeng and waiting for Tao Qing to be the prime minister, worshiping the internal official Chao Cuo as the imperial historian, and taking the Taizhong doctor Tian Shu as the internal official".

After witnessing the fate of Shen Tujia, the court was appeased, and the courtiers could only kneel and kowtow, saying long live.

After the 'Honorary Prime Minister' Tao Qing took office, Emperor Jing and Chao Cuo together slashed the guillotine at the princes and kings of the Kwantung region.

The Kwantung princes, who were successively fined for trumped-up crimes, could not bear it anymore, and finally under the contact of Liu Bi, the king of Wu, they raised the banner of 'punishing mistakes and clearing the monarch's side' and rebelled.

The Wu Chu Rebellion broke out completely.

Chao Cuo was frightened by the scale of the rebellion and suggested that Emperor Jing should take the imperial conquest to establish his authority.

At this time, Yuan An, who had an enmity with Chao Cuo, said to Emperor Jing: Chao Cuo wants to kill His Majesty and cause chaos in the world!

Emperor Jing, who was also frightened by the menacing posture of the rebels, hurriedly asked Yuan Ang what to do, and Yuan Ang said: The banner raised by the rebels is to kill Chao Wrong, as long as Your Majesty kills him, the rebels will have no excuse, and there will be no righteousness, so they will naturally retreat.

Emperor Jing pondered for a long time and reluctantly agreed.

In this way, Gui Wei was the emperor's mistake, and was deceived to the court by the name of "His Majesty summons the public to discuss matters", and abandoned the city.

According to the "Historical Records: The Biography of Yuan Anchao", when Chao died wrongly, he was still wearing court clothes...
