Chapter 493 Lu Ren's Thoughts (1)

Lu Ren's words made Shirley fall into deep thought. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info can't help it, after all, with Shirley's qualifications of only eight years in the WTO, it is a bit unrealistic to figure out what Lu Ren said in a short period of time. However, there are some things that can be written down for the time being, and now that there is a rare opportunity like this, it is better to listen to Lu Ren's thoughts more.

Facing Shirley's inquiring gaze again, Lu Ren smiled and said, "I know that what I said was a bit messy, which made you a little indigestible at once, but to be honest, why am I not groping little by little?"

"Well, let's follow suit. Anyway, in my opinion, an unsuccessful reunification can only be the opening of another troubled era, especially in this era, the privilege of the scholar class is too serious, like the Jin Dynasty not long after the founding of the country, there was a rebellion of the eight kings, and then it led to the chaos of the five chaos? Then before Li Tang, the unification of the Sui Dynasty was also completed, and the unification time was only a few years before the war was re-torn up?

"Shirley, if you have time to rummage through historical materials, it is not difficult to find that the Sui Dynasty is actually an era when the scholar class is fighting for power and profit, although there are factors in the blind tossing of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, but what kind of good birds are those scholar classes? It can even be said that until the Li Tang era, the successive monarchs of Li Tang were not desperately suppressing the scholar class? This is because the imperial examination system has gradually matured in that era, which has fundamentally weakened the power of the scholar class little by little, and broken the monopoly of the scholar class on the political arena, otherwise God knows what will happen.

"Hey, it's far away again. To put it intuitively, I think that the unification of the feudal era is only the unification of the royal power of a certain family, but it is not the unity of the consciousness of the entire Chinese nation-state. That's right, with our current strength, helping Lao Cao beat Sun Quan's stuffy stick, maybe we can help Lao Cao and others complete the reunification. But as the unification of the royal power of the feudal family, what will be the first thing Lao Cao will do after the unification? And what was the first thing the emperors of all dynasties in history did after reunification? It is to kill heroes and build prisons, so as to consolidate the royal power of the family. But how many people have really done something good to the people? ”

Saying that, Lu Ren folded his arms and looked up at the sky, and when he looked back, he said to Shirley: "I am from the grassroots, and I also have the same resentful mentality, so I also hate war and division." But now that we are in our position, we should seriously think about who we have helped to achieve reunification, and what is the real meaning of this reunification?

"Cao, Liu and Sun Sanjia, I believe that if any party wins the world, it will be able to let the people live a peaceful life for a period of time, but absolute power will bring absolute corruption, and the most important thing is that in order to maintain their own rule, these royal families will not allow the people to do anything to improve themselves, and for hidden dangers, they will also mercilessly strike first to eliminate future troubles. And in order to maintain and stabilize their rule, they must compromise with the noble forces and cooperate with the noble class in this era. However, as I said earlier, the excessive privileges of the noble class will only directly intensify the social contradictions, and then trigger a new round of turmoil.

"Shirley, in fact, I have said so much just to explain one thing to you, that the era we live in is different from the era in which we originally lived. In our own time, the state is a holistic concept, the spiritual leader and ideological support of all people, not the private property of a family. But in this era, the state is the private property of a family.

This is the difference between the times and the concept of humanity, and to put it mildly, the concept of our country in later generations was formed in the real sense, or after Mr. Sun Lao launched a revolution and completely overthrew the feudal dynasty, and this also includes the invasion and oppression of our country by many powers, so that the people of our entire Chinese continent are bent on resisting foreign enemies, thus forming a concept of the country in the overall consciousness, not loyal to the royal power of which family.

"But this is not the case in this era, who we help to unify is just to complete another dynastic alternation, in the end what kind of concept will our Chinese nation form? It's that everyone can be an emperor, and then everyone will be arrogant and pretentious...... Don't forget that this kind of malaise can be seen everywhere in our own time, and this kind of excessive arrogance will reduce the quality of a country and affect the development of a country as a whole. ”

“……”

Shirley was speechless for a long time before smiling: "Master, I really don't understand what you said, and why do I always feel that even you, master, are a little unclear?" Because you're talking so messy! ”

"Really? Oh...... Hehehe! ”

Lu Ren scratched his head a little embarrassed, then shook his head and said: "You're right, I'm quite messy, after all, I'm not a politician, and now I just say whatever I think, and I haven't even sorted it out." In any case, it is better for us to start from our own actual situation. Well...... I am a person from the grassroots, and I know very well that I am not as good as peerless heroes like Lao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan. Since even they can't do something, is it necessary for us to sacrifice ourselves so great and do something so great? As I said earlier, we may be able to help a certain candidate complete the unification under the premise of sacrificing ourselves, but after the reunification of this candidate, how do you think they will treat us?

"Personally, I think that maybe at first they will give us a few days of comfort, but it won't be long before their knives will cut down on our necks. If we were characters like Liu Chan and Sun Hao, maybe we would be able to live a comfortable life without worrying about anything, but everything we have done in Yizhou in the past ten years, and now Yizhou, which is very rich for them, I don't think any party will be at ease with us. ”

“…… Yes, master, you are right. ”

Lu Ren said again: "There is another one, if it is really the trend of the times, and the royal power of a certain family is about to complete the great cause of the unification of China, then it is meaningless for us to support a Yizhou." If that's the case, it's not bad for us to learn from Zheng Keshuang, at least we won't become sinners in history, but the time we are at is very wrong.

"Again, as I said earlier, there are a large number of die-hards under the command of all the candidates, and even myself...... I think Shirley should know that our people in Yizhou are used to our way of governing, and it can even be said that they have been spoiled by us and have their own sense of superiority. Now that the winners of the various parties have not yet been decided, and we are in a hurry to submit to the vassals, how can they accept it? ”

After changing his tone, Lu Ren said again: "Let's take an analogy, if we help Lao Cao settle Jiangdong, then Lao Cao will definitely emphasize you to Xuchang to be a bird in the golden wire cage, and he will change someone else to govern Yizhou." Before I let Lu Meng commit suicide, I also told him that Jiangdong would win Yizhou, because I didn't understand our way of governance, and coupled with the historical limitations of the knowledge of those scholars at this time, Yizhou would definitely be a mess.

"Generally speaking, we collect so low agricultural taxes, and at the same time attach importance to the development of commerce and trade, and use this economic system to ensure the prosperity and rapid development of our Yizhou region, but Shirley, do you think that the people sent by Lao Cao or Sun Quan will still continue to use our way of governance? Influenced by the limitations of history, they pay attention to excessive emphasis on agriculture and light business, and once they arrive in Yizhou, they will definitely desperately suppress the commercial and trade system that we have built up with great difficulty, and at the same time force the people of Yizhou to follow their old governance thinking. Here I have set two outcomes, one is to bring Yizhou back to the small-scale peasant economic system relatively smoothly, and the other is that the people of Yizhou will live from a rich life to a poor life, and the result will eventually lead to a riot in the face of growing discontent.

"The former may be okay to say, we only haven't appeared in Yizhou, but if it's the latter...... Shirley, what we have made can still be controlled in our hands, but if it is in the hands of someone with ulterior motives and very big ambitions, what will be the result?

"To put it mildly, this person is likely to directly trigger a new round of turmoil and hegemony, and the people of the entire Chinese continent will have to live a war life for decades, and even under the war, the nomads in the north will go south in advance; To put it mildly, this person will rely on what we left behind, and if he doesn't do it, he will really split Yizhou out of the Huaxia Continent, I don't want to see this kind of thing happen?

"So what we are doing now is a bit of a suspicion of prolonging the time of division and hindering the process of reunification, but we are helpless to protect ourselves, but in a political sense, we have always been the ministers of the Han Dynasty. Not only us, but even Lao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan, they are splits in the true sense, but don't they still admit that they are the courtiers of the Han Dynasty? At least at least, they all acknowledge that now.

"Now we might as well speak of ourselves as greater. We seem to be a bit of a prolonged split time in Yizhou now, but it is precisely because of the checks and balances that we have existed, and none of the Cao, Liu, and Sun families dare to declare their separation from the Han Dynasty under the premise of being unable to encroach on the other two. As for us, we are actually using a division of regional forces to maintain the unity of the entire country's political concept! ”

“…… Master, I'd love to say what kind of nonsense are you talking about? (To be continued.) )
