In the warm spring breeze, Zhu Yifeng, who was dressed in casual clothes, and Luo Bingzhang came to the snake mountain Huanghu Jitou together, although it has been more than two years since he arrived in Wuchang, but this is the first time he has come here, when he walked towards the mountain, he looked ahead, only to see the sailboats in the rolling Yangtze River, although it is across the river and looks at the scenery of the three towns of Wuhan is still in full view. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

This is the place to start your own business!

Looking towards the head of the Yellow Crane Rock, looking at the Yellow Crane Tower located on the top of the mountain, now this No. 1 building in the south of the Yangtze River has not been destroyed in the war.

Zhu Yifeng, who came to Huanghu Jitou, seems to be very happy today, and the reason why he is so happy is very simple, because the consul general sent to Nanyang last year rented North Borneo without a single shot, and the current North Borneo is not limited to the Sabah region in later generations, but also part of North Kalimantan in later generations, and tens of thousands of square kilometers of land were so easily rented together at a "price" of 5,001 yuan.

Compared to Hokkaido, where the climate is harsh, North Borneo will be the first step in China's large-scale overseas migration, and how can Zhu Yifeng not be happy when he thinks that this great cause will start now.

Above Huang Huji's head, looking at the dilapidated Yellow Crane Tower, Zhu Yifeng looked forward to it while walking. Before coming, he looked up at the heavy eaves and arches with peeling paint, and asked casually.

"What year was this building built?"

"Back to the lord, the Yellow Crane Tower was built in the Three Kingdoms, because of the frequent fires, the Yellow Crane Tower has been repeatedly destroyed and built, so there is a "fire through three shots, the work of the eight xing" said, now this building was rebuilt in the first year of the pseudo-Jiaqing ......"

Although Luo Bingzhang is not from Wuchang, he knows this building very well.

"The fire has been fired three times, and the work has been eight times. In this way, it seems that this building has gone through hardships. ”

Zhu Yifeng is no stranger to the Yellow Crane Tower, once upon a time, when he traveled in Wuhan, he also came here, but when the Wuchang approach bridge of the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge was built, he occupied the old site of the Yellow Crane Tower, and later rebuilt the Yellow Crane Tower, and the site was located on the Snake Mountain Peak Ridge about 1000 meters away from the old site.

"Ruzhai can know that the Yellow Crane Tower in Wuchang has the saying that "the country is prosperous and the building is prosperous"? ”

"Lord, I heard that Wuchang Mansion has decided to allocate 50,000 yuan for the renovation of this building a year ago, isn't this in line with the principle of "national fortune and prosperity of the building"? ”

Luo Bingzhang slapped his ass without a trace.

"Ruzhai, this is not like you!"

Zhu Yifeng smiled when he heard it, he did not object to the Wuchang Mansion to repair the Yellow Crane Tower, after all, the building was already extremely dilapidated.

In fact, this "national fortune is prosperous", but it is also reasonable, after all, most of the Yellow Crane Tower was destroyed in the war, if it is peaceful and prosperous, there is no worry about being destroyed in the war. ”

Zhu Yifeng casually explained that this is the saying that later generations only learned from the tour guide's explanation that "the national fortune is prosperous and the building is prosperous".

"If you say the ...... of prosperity"

The words were slightly dull, and Zhu Yifeng, who was originally in a good mood, also became a little heavy, and he looked at the surging river and said.

"Can you know the price of this prosperous world?"

Slightly surprised, Luo Bingzhang bowed lightly.

"My lord, forgive the foolishness!"

What is the price of prosperity? What is the problem?

"The so-called prosperous era is an era in which there is no serious political corruption at home, there is no imminent enemy and foreign invasion outside, social order is good, and the common people can generally eat enough. In Chinese history, there have been three such large-scale prosperous times, namely the reign of Han Wenjing, the Zhenguan Kaiyuan era of the Tang Dynasty, and as for the Kangqian prosperous era...... How can the world of eating bran and drinking scarce be regarded as a prosperous world? ”

Staring at the dots of white sails on the Yangtze River, Zhu Yifeng continued.

It can be said that the term "Shengshi" is unique to China. These two words cannot be found in the history books outside the Han cultural circle. It is no wonder that China's history has been full of disasters and difficulties, and when you think about it carefully, the word "prosperous age" itself contains helplessness and ominousness. "Prosperity" and "decline" are relative, and without "decline" as the background, there will be no beauty and splendor of the prosperous world. ”

At this point, Zhu Yifeng's face sank slightly, doesn't this confirm this sentence.

The lord's face changed, falling on Luo Bingzhang's eyes, his mind also sank, and when he spoke up, he saw him continue to say:

Therefore, every prosperous era in history needs a large-scale era of disaster as a prelude. Such as the rule of Wenjing. Twenty years before the emergence of this prosperous era, the war at the end of the Qin Dynasty had just ended. More than 10 years of war have caused huge population losses to China, and no one in the world is left behind, and as for the economic losses, they are even more heavy. At the beginning of the establishment of the Han Dynasty, it was probably more embarrassed than any other dynasty. The Book of Han? Food and Goods Chronicle" contains: "Han Xing, after the Qin Dynasty, the princes rose together, the people lost their jobs, and there was a great famine. There are 5,000 meters of stone, cannibalism, and more than half of the dead. "The world is established, the people are dead, and the Son of Heaven cannot have a mellow horse, but will be in a bull cart." ”

Zhu Yifeng, who has been in this time and space for more than two years, has advocated learning from the West in the past two years, but this does not prevent him from reading history books, so many allusions to history books can be easily obtained.

Of course, the most glamorous prosperous era is, of course, "the rule of Zhenguan" and "the prosperous era of Kaiyuan". The backdrop to this prosperity was also an unprecedented and tragic loss of population. In the first three years of Li Shimin's ascension to the throne, that is, in the seventh year of Wude, the large-scale war at the end of the Sui Dynasty subsided. The chapters and chapters in "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" are all tragic human tragedies. In the sixth year of Zhenguan, Wei Zheng still said: "Today, from the east of Yi and Luo, Jihu Hai, Dai, and Juze, the vast thousands of miles, the population is cut off, the chickens and dogs do not smell, and the roads are depressed. Even until the eleventh year of Zhenguan, Ma Zhou still said when he wrote the book: "Today's account is not as good as the eleventh of Sui." ””

Sighing at the "declining world" before the prosperous era, Zhu Yifeng said in a solemn tone.

"The great destruction of the world of extreme decline is a necessary condition for the emergence of the prosperous age. An important reason for the collapse of traditional Chinese dynasties was population pressure, and the great war and chaos relieved the population pressure for the new dynasty and provided a broad stage for its rise. It was the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty that caused a large number of people to die and cause a large number of fields to be abandoned, so that the Tang Dynasty was able to implement the equalization system and distribute one hectare of land to each male. The natural "land reform" caused by the war was also one of the main reasons for the "exile" in the early Han Dynasty and the rapid economic development in the early Qing Dynasty. In fact, after the great turmoil has passed, as long as the new dynasty can ensure that there will be no major political turmoil for several decades, then it does not need to put forward a clever development strategy. Therefore, every prosperous era is a kind of rebound and a kind of compensation for the catastrophe and damage in the previous stage. Second, the emergence of the prosperous era benefited from the lessons provided by the declining era. The serious consequences of the perverse actions of the previous kings are a great warning to future generations of kings who have seen enough of human tragedy. The kings of the great age were very good at learning from the failures of their predecessors......"

Zhu Yifeng's tone seemed a little heavy, every time he saw a history book, he would always think of himself and the future of China.

"The few prosperous eras in Chinese history were all extremely declining worlds and high scores after paying high tuition fees. Of course, paying the price of a world of extreme decline does not necessarily guarantee a prosperous world. In fact, the conditions for the emergence of the prosperous era are far more demanding than this. In Chinese history, not all disasters can be compensated for by progress, and more often than not, disasters are exchanged for greater disasters. ”

Noticing the change in the lord's face and feeling the heaviness in his words, Luo Bingzhang immediately realized the worry in the lord's heart and said immediately.

"The most necessary condition for the emergence of a prosperous era is to meet wise emperors, such as Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, and Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, all of whom are wise monarchs. Today's lord, although the lord of the three provinces, but the three provinces have appeared in the prosperity of the world, think of other days, when the lord dominates the world, will definitely be able to bring my China into a far more prosperous world than the scenery and Zhenguan! ”

As a courtier, he naturally hopes that the time when the king rules the world will be extremely prosperous, and Luo Bingzhang is no exception, and the reason why he says this now is more to appease the lord's mood.

"The ...... of the Prosperous World"

Shaking his head, Zhu Yifeng stared into the distance and said.

"A thriving, self-confident regime doesn't need to embolden itself through self-promotion. On the contrary, in problematic times, people often sing the tune of prosperity. On the contrary, in problematic times, people often sing the tune of prosperity. Because the "prosperous age" is a strong proof of the legitimacy of the rule of traditional dynasties. After violently seizing power, a regime needs to support its legitimacy with the achievements of "feeding the people" and "herdsmen". And the emergence of the prosperous era is, of course, the best proof of the results of domination. In the process of a dynasty's pioneering efforts, rulers do not often mention the word "prosperous times", but focus on discovering and solving problems. In the reign of Wenjing in the Han Dynasty and the reign of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, there were never emperors and ministers who boasted of being prosperous. On the contrary, those rulers who lack confidence often talk about "prosperous times". For example, the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the voice of its prosperity was the loudest, and the content of the Qing Dynasty was to publicize the "deep benevolence and benevolence" of the Qing regime. ”

Laughing coldly, he said, who had a clear awareness of Sheng Shi.

"After the chaos, there will be a great rule, the so-called great ruler is because of the large number of deaths caused by the war, resulting in a large number of abandoned fields, which naturally increases the per capita cultivated area, the people's warehouses have surplus grain, and the economy is naturally prosperous, which is considered to be natural. From this point of view, Confucianism ......"

Looking back at Luo Bingzhang and seeing his thoughtful look, Zhu Yifeng asked rhetorically.

"In your opinion, even if this governor rules the world in the future, how can it be a reason to become prosperous, after all, ah......"

Sighing, Zhu Yifeng said in a rather helpless tone.

"There are too few people in this world who have died, and there is no chaos that will not survive five out of ten, how can there be great governance in the future?" (To be continued.) )
