0893 Three portraits are juxtaposed
After listening to President Moe's explanation, Princess Katrina Kafu suddenly realized, thought about it, and asked, "This matter seems to be quite big, do you want to call a meeting to discuss it?" ”
President Meng waved his hand, "It's too troublesome to convene a conference, the meeting of the Central Committee is only once a year, don't convene everything, just use the Huacui Evening News to send a message, with the situation of the order, issue, by the way, on the issue of the origin of mankind, don't issue an order, let the wind blow from the bottom, let the Huacui Evening News help agitate." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Princess Katrina Kafu nodded, "Yes, President, understood." ”
Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was the seventh emperor of the Western Han Dynasty and an outstanding politician, strategist, and poet.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ascended the throne at the age of sixteen, and in order to consolidate the imperial power, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty set up the Chinese Dynasty, set up the history of assassination in the local area, and created the probationary system to select talents. Following the advice of his father, he issued a decree of grace to settle the kingdom's power and return the salt, iron, and coinage rights to the central government. Culturally, Dong Zhongshu's suggestion was adopted, "depose a hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone", and put an end to the situation of "different teachers, different people, and a hundred different schools" since the pre-Qin period. During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he expanded the land and spread the national prestige, annexed Korea in the east, swallowed Baiyue in the south, conquered Dawan in the west, and broke the Xiongnu in the north, laying the basic scope of the Han land and creating the situation of the prosperous era of the Han Dynasty.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was one of the most outstanding monarchs of the Chinese feudal dynasty, laying the foundation for the strong and prosperous situation of the Han Dynasty, becoming the first peak of development of the Chinese feudal dynasty, and also opened up a vast territory and laid the basic scope of the Han land.
The Book of Han commented on Liu Che's "eloquence and strategy", and the "Wisdom of the Law" said that "the mighty and the wise and the virtuous are called martial", that is, they are majestic, strong, wise, and benevolent and virtuous. In Chinese history books, "Qin Emperor and Han Wu" are often connected to each other. His achievements had a profound impact on the course of Chinese history and the subsequent development of the Western Han Dynasty.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was the first emperor to use the "edict of sin" for self-criticism. Dare to sin yourself and put your own mistakes in the center of public opinion in the world, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is undoubtedly the first person. At this point, the emperors of later generations have made big mistakes, and they will also issue "guilty edicts", publicly admit their mistakes, and show the posture of a Ming monarch.
Under the feudal autocratic system, there are two bad habits in the use of talents: one is nepotism, only using people who are familiar with their cronies; Second, in terms of seniority, we must follow the "39 steps" and climb up one level at a time, and we must not "mess up" the rules. And Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty will not abandon people because of his words: as long as he is talented and his father has different political opinions, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is still eager to seek talent; The second is to dare to be promoted: because of his ability, Wei Qing was born as a slave, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was unexpectedly promoted.
Not only that, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty even abandoned orthodoxy and accommodated heterogeneity, and discovered Dongfang Shuo with a discerning eye, turning the solemn court into a rest room full of warmth and happiness, and the monarch and the minister were like playmates; At the same time, he did not lose his principles by being obscene, and admired Dongfang Shuo's slanders, and the fittest obeyed. When he first read "Zi Xuan Fu", he admired it greatly; Seeing the author Sima Xiangru, if he got a treasure, let him enjoy the same writing treatment as himself. Be able to recognize people, tolerate people, and use people.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty created unprecedented achievements, but in his later years, the poor soldiers and witches left a negative stain on him, but then he dared to face his own mistakes, and regained the national policy of resting soldiers and raising the people in the early Han Dynasty, and lightly dispensing with meager endowments, which laid the foundation for the prosperity of filial piety in the prosperous era of the Western Han Dynasty, which can be described as a good beginning and a good end.
Zhu Youzhen was the seventeenth emperor of the Ming Dynasty and the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty as a unified national regime. The fifth son of Mingguangzong, the half-brother of Mingxizong, and his mother is the lady Liu.
In the second year of the Apocalypse (1622), he was canonized as the king of Xin, and in the seventh year of the Apocalypse (1627), he ascended the throne and changed the Yuan to Chongzhen (1628-1644), and later generations were called Emperor Chongzhen.
After Emperor Chongzhen succeeded to the throne, he vigorously eradicated the eunuch party, was diligent in political affairs, lived frugally, and had six edicts against himself, and was a young and promising emperor. It's a pity that he is suspicious by nature and can't save the declining Ming Dynasty. During his reign, a peasant uprising broke out, and the Jin regime was eyeing the outside of the Guan, and was already in a situation of internal and external troubles. In 1644, when Li Zicheng's army broke through Beijing, he hanged himself in Coal Mountain at the age of 34 and reigned for 17 years.
President Meng knew that Emperor Chongzhen and Emperor Wu of Han, two controversial figures, were juxtaposed with him, and it would be lively now, and it would be controversial enough to start managing such a big country at the age of five, plus those two buddies, isn't it even more lively?
However, this is also the cleverness of President Moe, President Meng does not want to imprison people's thoughts, he wants to guide people's thoughts!
Enlightenment is to civilize civilization, let people develop ideas, let the people have ideas, let science and technology civilization keep up with the times, and even walk in the forefront of the world, thinking is the first step.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty didn't say it, it was too far away, President Meng actually liked Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to open up the territory and establish the courage and sense of historical responsibility of the majesty of the Han Dynasty.
Moreover, no matter how many people criticize Emperor Han Wudi, no one can help but admit that as Chinese, everyone is proud of being the descendants of Emperor Han Wudi, and if the world selects a top ten king, Emperor Han Wudi has a chance to enter.
President Meng pulled Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty out, and at the same time he was looking for a theoretical basis for his own expansion and in Asia, in the hands of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, almost all of Asia was the Han Dynasty, at least surrendered!
President Meng wants to make all the countries in the world vassal states of China, and needs such an excuse as a theoretical and historical basis, which is also in line with the colonial policy of this era, the British and the French, the Americans, the Dutch, the Spaniards, and the Portuguese, don't they all do this?
Emperor Chongzhen is a historical figure that President Meng likes very much, and President Meng also read a novel called "Chongzhen Shengshi" before this rebirth.
There are many reasons for the fall of the Ming Dynasty, and there are also many personal reasons for Chongzhen:
1. A diligent monarch does not mean that he is a qualified monarch, and the death of a country is not directly related to whether the monarch is diligent or not.
As the highest state of a monarch, Ma Yuan's evaluation of Liu Bang's words is "indispensable", which means that there are no rules and regulations, dare to boldly delegate power and employ people, and let talents maximize their talents.
Instead of having to do everything yourself, do it yourself. In fact, Chongzhen will also use people to delegate power, but the object of his delegation of power is eunuchs.
2. Chongzhen relied on the eradication of Wei Zhongxian's eunuch clique to gain the hearts of the people and control the government. But he just eliminated Wei Zhongxian's eunuch, and did not give up using his own eunuch. Chongzhen still used eunuchs to supervise the army and gave him great power. It is understandable that the emperor used eunuchs to check and balance the generals, but it is not right for eunuchs to command the army indiscriminately. At that time, the commander of the Nine Gates, who was in charge of the entire city defense of Beijing, was actually the eunuch Wang Chengen. borrowed a passage from "A Fang Gong Fu": The apocalypse has no time to mourn itself, Chongzhen mourns, Chongzhen mourns without learning, and it is also the descendants who mourn Chongzhen. The main reason why Chongzhen used eunuchs was that he was suspicious and stubborn and distrustful of the minister.
3. Since Chongzhen's killing of Yuan Chonghuan is more controversial, I will not discuss it here, but take Wang Qia and Chen Xinjia as examples. Houjin hit the city of Beijing, some people say that Jiajing killed Ding Rukui, the secretary of the military department, and the enemy retreated, so Chongzhen locked up Wang Qia and prepared to kill. Later, Chongzhen sent Chen Xinjia, the secretary of the military department, to secretly negotiate peace, but the news leaked, which made Chongzhen very faceless, so he killed Chen Xinjia. Chongzhen once had 14 military department Shangshu did not end well, and 54 cabinets were changed, which is rare in ancient and modern times, and it is simply a dead country.
4, the direct consequence of Chongzhen's doing this is that no one has done it with him. When Li Zicheng arrived in Beijing, he asked the ministers to come to the court, but none of them were willing to come. Chongzhen has committed six edicts, but his last words on his deathbed are "the ministers are mistaken". After sinning six times, I finally came to the realization that the fault is yours. If one or two ministers mislead you, it may be the minister's fault. But the 14 defense ministers and more than 30 prime ministers who were killed by you all mistook you, and that is your responsibility. This reminds me of Xiang Yu's last words, "Heaven will kill me, not a crime of war." "I didn't understand the reason for my failure until I died, and I made excuses for myself, and it was strange if I didn't perish.
5. The fall of the Ming Dynasty began to lay the groundwork from the Wanli period, and finally broke out in the Chongzhen Dynasty. The situation that Chongzhen faced at that time was an infinite circle of death: the Jurchens went to the Ming Dynasty to grab money - the Ming Dynasty spent money to garrison - the government had no money and could only increase the tax burden - the peasants had no money to pay taxes and rebelled - the more troops were deployed to suppress it, the more it cost money - the more money was spent and the more taxes were raised-the more taxes were raised, the more rebellions were made--the Jurchens took advantage of the chaos to grab money again, coupled with locust plagues and droughts, such a long-term accumulated mess really could not be solved by just relying on diligence. Therefore, the rise and fall of a dynasty depends not only on individual efforts, but also on the historical process.
6. The Ming Dynasty was in the late stage of China's feudal society, and its political rules were quite mature, and sometimes even if the emperor was lazy, as long as the civil service system could operate step by step, it was to ensure that the state apparatus operated as usual. So at that time, I was not afraid that the emperor would be lazy, but I was afraid that the emperor would toss blindly. Chongzhen wanted to cut through the mess quickly, but he didn't know that if he wanted to hurry, he couldn't reach it. In addition, the civilian clique represented by the Donglin Party, Chongzhen cannot completely control them. Therefore, the only means that Chongzhen can use is to kill, kill, kill! The more you kill, the more chaotic, the more you kill, the more centrifugation. Coupled with the serious internal friction of the civil official group, this is the main reason for the demise of the Ming Dynasty.
7, the pity of Chongzhen in later generations is mostly due to two reasons. First, the Ming Dynasty was the last Han dynasty, which made a lot of sympathy for the Ming Dynasty and the Han nation transferred to Chongzhen. Second, Chongzhen is not a drunken king like Song Huizong and Chen Houzhu, which makes people feel a little pity for him, but it is just pitiful, not a pity. It's like a person who works very hard, studying day and night, but he always takes the first place in the exam, is he pitiful? Wretched!
8, Chongzhen's talent is not excellent, and he has not received a good education, he can only rely on the diligence of the day after tomorrow to make up for it, and wants to find a way to save the country in practice. Chongzhen's life, like a low-level, rotten equipment rookie, entered the epic level of difficulty of the game, those masters who helped him train, Chongzhen suspected that they were coming to cheat money and experience, he only assured his pet Wang Chengen, as a result, a roadside monster can him 1000+, not to mention the big boss Huang Taiji and Li Zicheng. But history is not a game, there is no opportunity to archive and read the file to start again, since you have found the wrong way, failure is the death of the country.
These things, President Meng is very clear, why do you still want to pull Emperor Chongzhen out and stand side by side with him, just for the sympathy and backbone of the Han people!
There is also a very important reason, to provide a historical guide for the Huacui Party, to remind everyone not to follow the old road of the fall of the Ming Dynasty, but also to provide a direction for the whole country.
At present, Huaguo is not good, it is really very similar to the regime in Chongzhen's hands.
Huaguo accounts for half of the Qing court, even if President Meng has now held the Qing court in his hands, but this world is not a new world that he overthrew and created, and the world established by Taizu in later history is different, President Meng's world is made through the bourgeoisie, and it is through the luck and vision of President Meng that it has risen in a very short period of time.
