0631 President Luo's Private Interview with Weifu [6]
At this reception banquet, Luo Yunxiao made an enthusiastic speech due to the repeated invitations of everyone: "Everyone here, since you asked Luo to say a few words, then Luo will no longer refuse. So today, let's talk about the origin of the name of our country! Why is our country called Dahua? This has to start with the distant Huaxia clan. ”
The word Huaxia can be traced back to the legendary period of the Yan and Huang Emperors, which was 2,500 years ago {Anyone who sees this number must say that the author is mistaken.} Isn't the origin of Yanhuang more than 4,000 years old now? How could it be 2500 years? The author will tell you after a while! Isn't this our pig's foot crossing? And this is more than 1,600 years ago! Break your toes yourself and do the math! The Yandi and Huangdi clans, as well as some of the Jiuli tribes, first lived in the area of Huashan and Xiashui (now Hanshui), so they called themselves Huaxia, and they can also be called Hua or Xia alone. The Huaxia people are actually the predecessors of our Han people. ”
"In this way, all of us are descendants of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang, so we can also be called descendants of Yan and Huang. We are all descendants of Yan and Huang, descendants of the Huaxia people, so our great Chinese country is derived from this. ”
"In the future, we will take a new path that is different from the past. This is a road that can make the vast number of poor people prosperous together, happy, and able to stand up from now on, instead of taking the old road that has become their family in order to satisfy the selfish desires of a few, and that road will become narrower and narrower, and eventually become a dead end, a road of no return. ”
"As for why it is said that it is a dead end, a road of no return? Let's analyze the past history! Let's not talk about the history of the pre-Qin period, because the countries of that period were not really countries, and they could not represent Chinese civilization at all. And the person who really created the post-Chinese civilization was Qin Shi Huang. ”
"The First Emperor Yingzheng is a strong man, and we will never deny this. He was the first iron-fisted politician to complete the unification of China. He established the first multi-ethnic centralized monarchy, and adopted the emperor of the three emperors and the emperor of the five emperors. It constitutes the title of emperor, and is the first feudal monarch called emperor in ancient and modern China and abroad. ”
"Qin Shi Huang created the emperor system and implemented the three princes and nine secretaries, and ordered them to manage the affairs of the state. At the local level, the sub-feudal system was abolished, and the county system was replaced by a county system, and at the same time, the same book and the same track, and unified weights and measures. Attacking the Xiongnu in the north, conquering Baiyue in the south, and building the famous Great Wall, and also building the spiritual canal, pushing the land of China into the era of great unification, and creating a new situation for the establishment of an absolutist centralized system. It has had a profound impact on the history of China and the world. ”
"However, such a powerful country only lasted for 2 lifetimes, and it took less than 14 years before it was overthrown by Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and it also became the shortest-lived dynasty in history."
So let's talk about the Han Dynasty, which has a history of more than 400 years. From 206 years before the era to 220 years after the era, the Han Dynasty began from the beginning of Gaozu Liu Bang to the death of Emperor Liu Xie, experienced 24 emperors, and ruled for a total of 427 years, which can be described as enduring and enduring. At this moment, some people must ask, the Han inherited the Qin system, but the Qin died in a short life, but the Han was able to maintain peace and stability for a long time, after hundreds of years, what kind of situation is this? ”
"Then I'm going to analyze the process for you. The Han Dynasty inherited the Qin Dynasty's Three Princes and Nine Secretaries system, there is no doubt that this system is in line with the historical development trend at that time, as for the fall of Qin, it boils down to the following two points, one is the personal reason of the rulers of the Qin Dynasty, that is, the brutality. Second, the extremely strict Qin law (such as the system of continuous sitting). ”
In the early period of the Han Dynasty, social stability was a very important factor, they learned the lessons of the fall of the Qin Dynasty, and implemented the system of rule by inaction in the early stage, so that the people at the bottom who had suffered from war could recuperate; Moreover, after Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, ascended the throne, he continued to consolidate the great unification, politically attacked the Xiongnu externally, ensured external stability, and internally attacked the power of the princes and royal families, ensuring internal stability. ”
Therefore, the development of the Han Dynasty is not only due to the inheritance of the Qin system, but also for the comprehensive improvement of the economy, culture and other reasons. Therefore, when we think about problems in the future, we must not be confined to a single surface, but should think from all angles and in an all-round way; only by doing so can we sum up lessons and lessons, avoid making those mistakes of the previous dynasty, and be even stronger than that strong man. ”
"Of course! No matter how powerful the Han Dynasty was, it was eventually destroyed by Sima Yan, Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty. The fall of the Eastern Han Dynasty has its historical inevitability, as well as the limitations of the dynasty itself. There were several factors for their final demise, one of which was that their relatives and eunuchs were in chaos one after another, which made the imperial power in the late Eastern Han Dynasty useless.
"The second is that the emperor is not powerful, especially the doll emperor is too much, such as Emperor Liu Jing of the Han Dynasty, who succeeded to the throne at the age of 3; Emperor Liu Zhao of the Han Dynasty, who ascended the throne at the age of 10; Liu Long, Emperor of the Han Dynasty, ascended to the throne at the age of less than 1; Emperor Liu Hu of the Han Dynasty, became an emperor at the age of 13; Liu Bao, Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty, ascended to the throne at the age of 12; Liu Bing, Emperor Chong of the Han Dynasty, was only 2 and a half years old when he reigned; Emperor Liu Zhang of the Han Dynasty, became an emperor at the age of 8; Liu Hong, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, was also an emperor at the age of 12; And the last emperor of the Han Dynasty was Liu Xie, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, who also ascended the throne at the age of 9. Of the 14 emperors of the entire Eastern Han Dynasty, 9 were children under the age of 15. ”
"In fact, the most important point of the fall of the Han Dynasty is that the Yellow Turban Rebellion led to the rise of local armed forces, which caused the central government to lose control, resulting in the overthrow of the Han dynasty for more than 400 years in an instant."
"The demise of the Han family gave the Sima family a big bargain, and finally succeeded in the turbulent era of the Three Kingdoms, allowing Sima Yan to ascend to the highest ruling power, and established two Jin dynasties, the Western Jin Dynasty and the Eastern Jin Dynasty."
To put it bluntly, the social system of the Jin Dynasty is still an outdated social system, and its political system is still a hereditary monarchy, which is essentially the same as the two regimes of Qin and Han. The products formed under such a system are destined to come to an end, and the fall of the Western Jin Dynasty is a good verification of this, and it is only a matter of time before the Eastern Jin Dynasty goes to the end. ”
"Luo can say this now, if a country wants to realize a system of hereditary monarchs with the family as the world, it must not be able to go on, and its demise is a matter of time. Now, our Dahua is completely different, we want to take a new path, that is, democracy, freedom, equality for all, and it is a country without exploitation and oppression, and the people themselves are the masters of the country, which is what Luo has been looking forward to. I just don't know what everyone here thinks? If you have any ideas, you might as well be able to say them, and Luo asked everyone to speak freely and not hide them, okay? ”
Luo Yunxiao just said a few words before, but who would have expected that he was out of control, and he actually said a lot of things, from Qin Shihuang to Han Gaozu, and from Emperor Wu of Han to Emperor Wu of Jin; From the disadvantages of the old social system of the Qin, Han and Jin dynasties, to the superiority of the new system of Dahuaguo, the history of more than 600 years was completely described concisely, so that everyone present listened to the enthusiasm and enthusiasm, and even Miss Huang Huilian was excited.
