A brief story about the second chapter: Queen Jia used the two kings to kill Yang Jun, killed the two kings, reused the people of the Jia clan, and had an overview of national politics.

Although this story is a struggle between the clans over imperial power, it also reflects a series of problems faced by the clans after they became the ruling class in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Let's move on to the topic of the family.

Since the establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it began to find a way to get rid of the threat of the aristocratic landlord class, and constantly suppressed the royal family and nobles, but the whole dynasty needs to have a strong ruling class to lead, and the rulers of the Eastern Han Dynasty have limited reuse of relatives, unguarded reuse of eunuchs and families, and eunuchs are disabled people after all, no reputation, no prestige, just the ruler's house slaves, even if they are relied on and trusted by the rulers, but can only form a temporary power group, can not form a class that is highly admired by the people. The family is through filial piety, fame, experience, family history so that most of the scholars bow to worship, never tired of it, the people are also because the family is not only famous, but also occupies a large amount of land wealth, naturally willing to depend, so with the development of society, the family gradually became the load-bearing wall of the Eastern Han Dynasty building.

With the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the land annexation intensified, the rulers of the Eastern Han Dynasty were mediocre, and there were natural disasters throughout the country, the people were not able to make a living, the Yellow Turban Army uprising swept the country, although it was finally extinguished, but the various forces within the ruling class have achieved great development in the suppression of the Yellow Turban Uprising, and then around the struggle for imperial power and each other to meet each other, the Eastern Han Dynasty soon existed in name only.

Because the relatives were repeatedly suspicious of the ruling class, and they themselves were also deformed in the system, so the relatives were the first to be destroyed by the eunuchs who were trusted by the ruling class, and the eunuchs were only in power in the court, and they were physically disabled, unable to form a powerful class to rule the dynasty, and were finally slaughtered by the family represented by Yuan Shao, and at this time, the entire Eastern Han Dynasty was only supported by the Shi landlord class, and the family naturally wanted to protect their vital interests by establishing a clear political system, and even directly replaced the Eastern Han Dynasty and established a dynasty controlled by the Shi landlord class.

Just when the Eastern Han Dynasty fell apart, the landlord class of the scholar clan saw the dawn of completely replacing the Eastern Han Dynasty, and they all adopted a sympathetic and never helpful attitude towards the wandering Han Xian Emperor, and some people put forward the view that the Han family could not be revived.

However, in the face of the chaotic situation in the world, the weakness of the landlord class of the scholar clan was exposed, because the landlord class of the scholar clan was composed of many family clans, and the clan of the clan started by virtue of filial piety and honesty in the prosperous era of the dynasty, and only had a strong ability to control politics, but there was no way to deal with the turbulent times of the flames, and the clan itself was also composed of a group of relatives of the third generation, the fourth generation of officials, and the fifth generation of officials, and the political ability of individuals was actually very weak, and they paid more attention to safeguarding the interests of their own families. So much so that the ability to calm the world in the troubled times was far inferior to the ambitious children of the poor family, and finally lost in the crowd.

Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan finally ended the chaotic era at the end of the Han Dynasty, and the three of them had no family background, and they were all children of the Han family, but when the three of them founded the country and became the emperor, they had to think of the family.

For Cao Cao, he was born in a family of eunuchs, although he was ordered by the Son of Heaven not to be a minister, but he was always looked down upon by the family of the princes, so Cao Cao was determined to build a country dominated by the landlords of the Shu clan, and constantly suppressed the clan, but his son Cao Pi wanted to win the support of the Manchu officials and usurped the Han Dynasty as the emperor, and finally had to compromise with the clan, helping the clan to establish a nine-grade Zhongzheng system aimed at maintaining the landlord class of the clan, and making it clear that the power of filial piety and honesty belongs to the clan, that is to say, a person wants to be an official. It must be approved by the family, so Cao Wei compromised with the family, but in the face of the court that is about to get on the right track, how can the family tolerate a eunuch's son sitting on the dragon couch.

For Liu Bei, it is an indisputable fact that he was born poor and made a living selling straw sandals, after King Jing of Zhongshan, it is nothing more than a sign of deception and stealing fame, and Liu Sheng, King Jing of Zhongshan in the Western Han Dynasty, has more than 100 sons, and there are more than 20 in historical records alone, who can tell which son Liu Bei is a descendant of? Fortunately, in the seventies of the last century, Liu Sheng's golden jade clothes were unearthed from the Mancheng Han Tomb, and there may be Liu Sheng's NDA, if Liu Bei's mausoleum in Chengdu is excavated, can we use Y chromosome technology to compare them to see if what Liu Bei said is a lie, I am looking forward to it. Of course, the family didn't know that there was DNA technology, but they must have known that Liu Bei was selling straw sandals, stealing from Yizhou and calling the emperor, and giving orders on his head, and what made the family even more disgusting was that Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of the Shu Han Dynasty, was a farmer who cultivated in Nanyang, and also wanted to build a country dominated by the Shu people, and also vigorously promoted the children of the Shu Han family.

For Sun Quan, the background is relatively good, but it is only after the gate, the prestige of the family depends on military merits, and it is not the same thing as the family born with filial piety, but Sun Quan is also the son of an official eunuch after all, and he knows that the prestige of the family is not comparable to his own family, so he has to choose to rely on the family of Jiangdong and establish the country as the emperor, so the civil and military generals of the Eastern Wu are basically born in the family, and it is precisely because Sun Quan relies on the family that the Eastern Wu regime has been in the south of the Yangtze River for decades, but in the face of the battle of the world, How could the family care about being partial to Jiangnan?

In the end, because Cao Wei adopted a compromise policy towards the family, the family did not buy it, so that in the Gaopingling coup, the state power finally fell into the hands of Sima Yi, and the Sima Yi family was the family of Hebei, after the Sima family took power, the family finally breathed a sigh of relief, then the family became the ruling class, and naturally wanted to rescue the Shu Han family after the dire situation, and the Shu Han was already weak, and it was soon destroyed by Cao Wei, who had been elevated by the Sima family.

At this time, Cao Wei actually only had one name, and the control of the country had already fallen into the hands of the family headed by the Sima family, even if you compromise with me, the family will naturally not be merciful in the face of the fact that it is about to become the ruling class, and soon Sima Yan usurped the throne and became the emperor and established the Western Jin Dynasty.

Because the Eastern Wu relied on the domestic family clan to rule the land of Jiangdong, it lasted for decades, but I'm sorry, the family has taken control of the central power and truly become the master of the Chinese land, and when the time is ripe, it will naturally shout across the Yangtze River: "Fellow Jiangdong, don't compromise anymore, we are victorious." Poor Soochow was wiped out, and since then, after hundreds of years of development, the family has completely become the ruling class of the Central Dynasty.

Does the landlord class of the scholar clan from behind the scenes to the front really mean that a person has entered the ruling class through his own cultivation and filial piety? Of course, this is just a fairy tale, everything is fake, in fact, the ruling class of the scholar landlord class because of the formation of filial piety, fame, and birth, is born with hypocrisy and selfishness, especially the promulgation of the Jiupin Zhongzheng system, the children of the family, that is, the scholars, in order to cater to the standard of filial piety, have touted each other, pretending to live in seclusion, liking to talk, and even pretending to be high, debauchery, leading to singing, all in order to sell fame and reputation, and finally enter the ruling class, this Wei and Jin demeanor evolved to later, Since the day of birth, the children of the big family have helped you to raise filial piety and honesty, become an official, and even save your reputation and reputation, as if you are the uncrowned emperor of the dynasty.

Of course, after Sima Yan, who was born in a big family, became the emperor, the Sima family naturally became an aristocratic landlord class, so Sima Yan knew that the power of the family was overwhelming, and it would inevitably threaten the imperial power, the Sima family could usurp the throne and become the emperor, and other family families could naturally also, in order to have enough power to restrain the threat of the family to the imperial power, Sima Yan began to divide the kings with the same surname again, and gave the kings of the clan military power. Trying to restrain the rising class of scholars and landlords by restoring the power of the aristocratic landlord class. At the same time, he was worried about the mentally handicapped prince, but because the crown princess Jia Nanfeng was also from a big family, Sima Yan could only use the royal family and the Jia family to maintain the dynasty to comfort himself.

In fact, Sima Yan's approach was also a better strategy when the Ming monarch ruled the country, but Sima Yan left the throne to a mentally handicapped prince, and the family clan must have begun to move, just like Sima Yan was worried about, because the Sima family can become the ruler, then other families can naturally too. Therefore, when Sima Yan died, Yang Jun, a member of the family, took the opportunity to overpower the Western Jin Dynasty. It needs to be explained here that Yang Jun is also a relative, but it is definitely different from the relatives of the Han Dynasty, Yang Jun became a relative because the ruler was a family of people, and the marriage system with the family family, and the relatives of the Han Dynasty were often from the common people, because there were women in the family who were favored by the emperor and became officials, and the relatives after the Han Dynasty were basically produced by the marriage between the emperor and the minister, and could no longer exist as a political force alone. The political power of the eunuchs still exists, but this power is not stable, and will be large and small depending on the wisdom and ignorance of the rulers.

After the family Yang Jun took control of the government, naturally other families would definitely not be outdone, and the royal nobles were even more indignant and geared up, so the smart Queen Jia eradicated the power of the Yang Jun family with the help of the power of the royal family, and with the help of the power of the family and the power of the royal family and nobles reached a temporary balance, and because Queen Jia not only represents the interests of the family, but also represents the interests of the royal family, so she successfully gained temporary control of the Western Jin Dynasty.
