What is the Ram School? What is its claim? Why it rises and why it falls.

This matter is very complicated to say, and I am afraid that it will not be clear for three days and three nights.

Even the current Zhang Yue is difficult to figure out for a while, but he almost has a bottom in his heart.

At this moment, he looked at the old Son of Heaven, but he remembered two stories in his heart.

The first is that about eighteen or nineteen years later, there was a Confucian scholar named Yu Hong, who wrote to Emperor Zhao at the meeting and said: The ancestor Dong Zhongshu said that although there is a king who follows the body and keeps the text, it will not harm the order of the sage. After Han Jiayao, there was the luck of passing on the country. Emperor Han should send the world, seek sages, Zen to the throne, and retreat from the self-styled hundred miles, such as Yin, Tuesday Queen, in order to inherit the mandate of heaven!

It means to say: My ancestor Dong Zhongshu said that even if there is a king who is the emperor and abides by the moral and benevolent government, it will not prevent a better holy king from standing out from the world, and the old Liu family is Emperor Yao, and there is a mandate to give way to Zen Xian, so Your Majesty, you quickly find that sage and give him the throne......

So, Mr. Yu Hong was cut off without hesitation.

By the way, this Mr. Wei Hong is a great Confucian of the Dong Department of the Ram School.

His teacher is Dong Zhongshu's disciple Ying Gong, and his disciples also have Yan Pengzu and Yan Anle who are famous in history.

Moreover, he didn't have a nerve, he really hoped for it from the bottom of his heart.

The second story is Gu Yong, the minister of Emperor Cheng.

This is also a great power!

The famous idiom, chasing the wind and catching shadows, was invented by him.

The Book of Han records a letter from Gu Yong to Emperor Cheng.

Gu Yong said this - born to steam the people, can not govern each other, for the king to rule it, to rule the sea, not for the Son of Heaven to seal the territory, not for the princes, all think of the people! Vertical three unification, three positive, virtuous, not a surname, tomorrow is the world of the world, not the world of one person!

And unfortunately, this Mr. Gu Yong is also a disciple of the Dong Department of the Ram School.

Thinking of these two stories, Zhang Yue felt a little creepy, and even trembled.

Because among the historical materials he has traced and the ram scholars he has seen and heard and contacted now, people like Yu Hong and Gu Yong who think that they are not one or two, but a handful.

Basket loading, bucket loading, so much that you can't imagine.

Now, of course, it is the minority that thinks like Tani Yong, and the majority that thinks like Sahiro.

In fact, the ideals and demands of Dong Zhongshu and the Ram School are not at all what later generations of Confucian scholars called 'assisting the king, self-cultivation and governing the country and leveling the world'.

What they want to do is to put themselves above the king's head.

Let their thoughts and ideas be above all things in the world.

Therefore, the later kings unceremoniously strangled it to death.

In particular, Brother Axiu, the Guangwu Emperor, did not hesitate to use the body of a king to personally end the field, support the Zuochuan School, and try his best to suppress and restrict the Ram School.

This is the root of the decline of the ram idea in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

In fact, in the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was more than one ram playing prophecy.

Gu Liang and Zuo Chuan are also playing, and they are having a lot of fun.

The so-called ram idea is too boring, pedantic and promotes feudal superstition, and that is just an excuse for others to attack it.

In fact, the Ram Thought is the most suitable for China, as well as the most enterprising and pioneering of all the schools of Confucianism.

Otherwise, the people with lofty ideals in the late Qing Dynasty would not have turned it out of the pile of old papers, shook it off, and then tried to use it as a basis to revive Zhuxia, reform the law, and rebuild China.

It's a pity that at that time, it was already too late.

The magnates of the Manchu Qing Dynasty were reluctant to be like the Xianbei clan of the Northern Wei Dynasty, completely razing them to Xia, but instead stubbornly guarded the interests of their own small group, saying that they would rather be friends than domestic slaves.

Think about the ideas and ideas of the Ram School, and then think about what those Ram intellectuals have done in the long course of history.

Zhang Yue sighed.

In a society like China, if you want to limit the power of the monarch, what kind of hypocrisy is a republic, and you will rule the Son of Heaven by hanging the arch?

That's impossible.

Not to mention, the ambition of the Ram School is really too big!

It's so big that it's impossible to achieve!

At least for now, under the current situation of productivity, the ideals of the Ram School should be put away first.

After all, academia is no match for power.

And as a traverser, but also a former civil servant.

Zhang Yue faced this situation, but there was no pressure at all.

In this matter, he already knew how to deal with and respond to the question of the Son of Heaven.

At present, a slow rule like Gu Yong's is only a minority within the Ram School.

Therefore, it is the idealistic school like Hiroshi who needs to be solved.

So, sort out your thoughts slightly. Zhang Yue bowed and said: "The minister is favored by His Majesty, and he is trusted by the eldest grandson, and he will take it as his responsibility to support the Han family and give Jun Yao Shun Shang......"

The Son of Heaven listened, but his eyelids kept jumping.

To Jun Yao Shun?

Are you like those slow rules? Do you want to ride on my head?

Fortunately, he was very tolerant of Zhang Yue, and he trusted him very much, and felt that this courtier would not betray and hurt him, so he continued to listen patiently.

Otherwise, if you want to change someone, you will be kicked out a long time ago.

Zhang Yue bowed his head to the ground and bowed: "The ministers heard it, the political and religious literacy, so the cloud rescue also, it was used at that time, and it was given up if it was over, and it was easy to do it, so those who kept the same did not see the cure!" Therefore, the ministers should hold the heart of perseverance, move forward bravely, make the law for the Han Dynasty, declare the righteousness of His Majesty, and the festival of the ministers of the Ming Dynasty......"

When the Son of Heaven listened, his face finally showed a smile, and he said, "Please continue to ......."

As soon as Zhang Yue heard it, he knew that his choice was right. The passage he just said, in fact, in layman's terms, is translated into the vernacular: The minister feels that the Han should hold high the banner of reform and innovation, continue to deepen reform, and always be on the road. In this way, the destiny of heaven will be eternal, and the fortune of the country will last forever.

"Before the minister, he played the "Theory of the King's Destiny" to dedicate His Majesty, the minister thought that the mandate of heaven was in the Han, this early thing, the prosperity of the Han Dynasty was in accordance with the will of heaven and the people's heart, His Majesty the Holy Monarch was on the throne, and Yin and Yang, Bu Shengde, Jia Yu in the four seas, Ze was born by the people, the world is not Chengde, if you can uphold the government and be good, then Han Zuo will be eternal...... "At this time, Zhang Yue naturally unceremoniously dug out the foreshadowing that had been buried before, and the "Theory of the King's Destiny" was prepared for today!

Hearing this, the Son of Heaven sat up straight and said solemnly: "Aiqing, please discuss in detail for me, why is the law of the country for eternity......

As far as he is concerned, he believed in Dong Zhongshu's evil and supported the Ram School, thinking that this guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes would not harbor any bad intentions.

Which Cheng wants to ......

I really regret not being at the beginning!

What made him even more helpless was that after the Ram School came to power, he and the Legalists started the cause of Confucianism, and they did it well.

He was a little at a loss.

What's even worse is that with the passage of time, the ram idea gradually flourished and dominated the world.

Until now, even he didn't dare to say that he could easily eradicate the influence of this school.

Under the trap, he can only try to communicate with the Ram School, hoping that they will not make trouble for themselves.

Fortunately, now, in the case of the war against the Xiongnu, the Ram School can barely suppress those slow thoughts that are ready to stir in their hearts.

It can still unite under his banner, expel the Huns, build a new world, and usher in a new era.

But the question is - what about after the fall of the Huns?

Therefore, he urgently needed to find a new idea, a new theory to support the Han dynasty.

Zhang Yue saw it and hurriedly bowed again.

The development of the ram idea to this day has actually reached the time when it must be changed.

No more change, or compromise.

The scholars of the Ram School can play themselves to death!

You may not believe it, but on the eve of its demise, the Western Han Dynasty just climbed to the heyday of the ancient feudal dynasty!

According to the Hanshu record, "although the people are not as rich as Wenjing, the household registration in the world is the most prosperous"

How strong is it?

During the Aiping period, the data of the Western Han Dynasty's final statistics on the land and household registration of the whole country showed that at that time, there were a total of 8,270,536 hectares of cultivated land in the whole world, 1,233,062 households, and a population of 59,594,978.

Zhang Taiyan of later generations believed that in the late Western Han Dynasty, 'the family gave people enough, and the world was Ai'an.' ’

Neon Han history researcher Naito Hunan even believes that in the later years of the Western Han Dynasty, civil affairs were carried out normally, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.

But at the peak of such a powerful dynasty, the Western Han Dynasty collapsed.

Wang Mang usurped the fruits of the Western Han Dynasty almost effortlessly.

Moreover, except for a few people and the Huns who objected, even the Liu clan closed their mouths and accepted this reality.

So much so that Wang Fuzhi sighed: If the usurpation of recklessness is like its speed, the world will be usurped!

Why is this happening?

In a feudal dynasty, the world is already invincible, and there are no major internal troubles, as for external worries?

Even the Huns have already knelt down and shouted Dad.

In the whole world, the Han family drew their swords and looked around at a loss, just wanting to sing a song about how lonely it is to be invincible.

However, the Western Han Dynasty still perished quickly, suddenly, and immediately.

Regime change was achieved without even bloodshed.

Wang Mang usurped the Han, the world was jubilant, and the scholars and doctors and the people of the world at that time even felt that we were finally saved!

Pushing forward a little, when Wang Mang announced that he refused to accept the Xinye fief given to him by the Emperor of Han, a total of 487,572 people wrote to the then Queen Mother, and Wang Mang must accept this gift, otherwise they will go on a hunger strike in Beique to protest!

Why is this so?

In the past, Zhang Yue didn't know, but now he knows it very well.

Because......

The Ram School has never believed in any system that has remained unchanged for thousands of years and a dynasty that has not been easy to come for a long time.

Dong Zhongshu has long said - from change to righteousness, and to serve others!

What's even more terrifying is that the scholars of the Ram School are full of passion and pursuit of their ideals.

For the ideals in their hearts and the pursuits of their dreams, they can give up everything, including their lives.

And the most important one of their ideals is called 'To the Peace!' ’

See clearly, it's to peace!

Even the well-off and food and clothing cannot satisfy their appetite, and what they want is a world in which the old can rely on, the young can be raised, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment, without exploitation and oppression.

They are pursuing a society in which the people's moral cultivation and level are extremely high, almost comparable to that of a communist society.

Especially the young people and young Zhuang faction, their blood is boiling and it is difficult to restrain themselves.

Starting from Emperor Zhao, it went all the way to Emperor Xuan, Emperor Yuan, Emperor Cheng, Emperor Mourning, and Emperor Ping.

The young men and young men of the Ram School are constantly clamoring, tandem and noisy.

When it developed to Emperor Cheng, the Ram School felt that the Liu family was no longer enough to lead everyone to continue to 'bring peace'.

Everyone thinks that Liu's system, laws, and pursuits are too low-level.

So they vehemently demanded a change of man, a change of king.

And when the Ram School was strong, let alone the scholars of the Ram School.

Even the emperor has been fooled and lame by them.

When Emperor Wai was alive, he thought about Dong Xian, a favored minister that Chan gave him......

Emperor Cheng was even more worried in his later years, and once deeply felt that he was looking for a sage to Zen?

It was in such a situation, under the influence of such public opinion, that overnight, the Western Han Dynasty became a new dynasty.

Otherwise, you think that Wang Mang usurped the Han, why should the country be called 'Xin'?

And not something else?

Because, he wants to cater to this demand and hope of society.

He wants to shape himself into the holy king that the Ram School hopes and demands, the holy king who leads the people of the world to the world of great harmony and creates a peaceful and prosperous world!

Knowing this, and then looking at the reform plans of Wang Mang's restructuring, you can know that Wang Mang is actually not a traverser.

He was just put on the brazier by the Ram School.

The people of the world have given him such high expectations and given him such good conditions.

It will inevitably require him to make achievements and make political achievements.

Otherwise......

Brothers can help you to the stage, or they can tell you to get out!
