After the meal, Kong Tan, Zhuge Hui and He Chong returned in a carriage, and on the way, Kong Tan said worriedly: "How can there be a Son of Heaven in this world who returns the courtesy to the courtiers, and Wang Dao can still bear it calmly, where is the etiquette of the Langya Wang?" I don't want the imperial power to be so untenuous today. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

He Chong said: "When the imperial power is opened, there will be another rebellion of the eight kings, which will harm the common people." Our dynasty has succeeded two emperors, and there will be two rebellions of the eight kings when the imperial power is opened. (He Chong refers to Emperor Ming of Jin and Emperor Cheng ascending the throne to inherit the throne)

Zhuge Hui said: "The Langya Wang clan assisted three generations of kings, even if it is not an exaggeration to call the father. The reality of our dynasty today is that the scholars not only manage the people for the state, but also act as a defense force for the state, and they are also the main body of the state's taxes. Since the East China Sea Royal Clan Alliance, it has been determined that the political power will be governed by the Scholar Alliance. Without external forces, this reality is difficult to change. Back then, Emperor Huai wanted to break this status quo, which caused the Yongjia Rebellion! ”

Zhuge Hui turned to Kong Tan and said: "Those who know the times are Junjie, and those who change are heroes." The imperial power is not open, and there are practical reasons for its own lack of tension. Only the manor can produce the most grain, and only the literate scholars can mix the manor into production. The position of the scholars today is irreplaceable, so the scholars monopolized the pastoral mines, and the manufacture of grain and iron tools was all in the hands of the scholars. The Shi clan also has a large number of tribes and slaves, and after the Yongjia Rebellion, Jiangnan also wanted to be independent. However, just because the Zhou (the one who eliminated the three evils) family was loyal to the imperial court, he alone was able to form a sailor with thousands of people. His son Zhou Xi pacified Jiangnan three times in just five years. Aren't the scholars also cared for by the imperial court in the North Court? The practical reason for the lack of tension is not something that can be changed by an individual, but only by following the trend. ”

Kong Tan's face was expressionless, and He Chong nodded frequently.

Zhuge Hui's words changed: "The imperial power is not open, and it also has the advantage of not being open. The emperor glared, and the minister was so frightened that he wanted to pee, is that okay? Don't look at reality with a vulgar eye. During the Warring States Period, the princes no longer cared about Zhou Tianzi, but King Qi Wei ran to support Zhou Tianzi without knowing how to pay tribute to Zhou Tianzi. However, the next year, when his tribute was a month late, he was criticized by Zhou Tianzi, and as a result, King Qi Wei yelled at the messenger, 'Go back and pass the word to the Son of Heaven, he is a son of a' (Zhou Tianzi's mother was a slave). Frightened, the Son of Heaven made the ministers run back, and from then on, the Son of Heaven no longer dared to deal with King Qi Wei. ”

"Morale is down," Contan murmured. Zhuge Hui was respected by the world as the No. 3 famous person. The first is Director Wang, and Yu Liang sits in the second position.

He Chong agreed with Zhuge Hui's statement: "Lord Zhuge is right, we have to judge the situation. As the saying goes, 'those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes'. Fortunately, the scholars were all shoeed, and none of them were barefoot. Therefore, no one wants to or dies with others, and everything must be discussed. ”

Indeed, because the scholars are all vested interests, there are a large number of people, and they do not form a two-sided game, but mostly adopt a multi-party game. From the perspective of game theory, multi-party games need to find the 'Nash equilibrium point' to maximize benefits, and avoid zero-sum games.

Kong Tan said: "After the death of Tao Taiwei, the Langya Wang family is dominant, what kind of multi-party negotiation is there now? ”

He Chong said faintly: "You think too simply, the Langya Wang family may not be able to become a dominant family." ”

Kong Tan and Zhuge Hui looked at He Chong in a daze, and He Chong continued: "Before Tao Taiwei died, he recommended Yu Liang to supervise Jingjiang, Yu Liang was already in charge of Yuzhou, if Yu Liang can really control Jingjiang, he will be able to be equal to the Langya Wang family, and Yu Liang, as the uncle of the country, will definitely be able to restrain Wang Xiangye's family." ”

Kong Tan and Zhuge Hui were stunned in a daze, Zhuge Hui blushed and said: "Wang Tian has told me several times in person, I can't agree to Yu Liang taking over Jiangzhou, only let Yu Liang be a Jingzhou assassin." ”

He Chong said: "The four brothers of the Tao family in Jingzhou are strong and strong, and each guards a county, Yu Liang only has the position of Jingzhou Thorn History, and he is still an empty Anxi general. Only by having both Jingjiang and Jingjiang can he be on an equal footing with the Langya Wang family. Therefore, I hope that when the court decides this matter, the three of us will stand by Yu Liang's side at the same time. This matter is about the national line. ”

Kong Tan said: "Supporting Yu Liang is actually protecting Director Wang. Let's help him in case he dies of life. ”

Zhuge Hui sighed at He Chong: "Everyone says that you can enter the middle school because you are the nephew of Xiangye. Today, I realized that you are dedicated to the country, not only relatives. ”

He Chong said ashamedly: "As long as others don't ridicule me, this is for the benefit of my eldest brother's family, I will be satisfied." "Yu Liang is He Chong's eldest brother.

After Tao Kan's death, the political balance was broken, and the humility of the little emperor aroused the suspicions of the scholars. Make up for the new balance and become the first choice of the nobles.

Kong Tan is the twenty-fifth grandson of Confucius. Confucianism is about 'man's obedience and use of society'. After the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, the individualism of metaphysics was met with a hint of skepticism, and the status of Confucianism rose in the early Eastern Jin Dynasty. As the mantle of Confucius, Kong Tan has a very high status.

Zhuge Hui is the cousin of Sima Rui, the founding emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and is the third great man in the world after Wang Dao and Yu Liang.

He Chong, Wang Dao's nephew, Yu Liang's brother-in-law, the emperor's uncle, a new star in the political arena.

==========

Author's words: Yes, the alternative of the two Jin and Northern Dynasties is not politically imposed, but a realistic helpless choice. Engels said, "The economy is the foundation of society." Society will dispose of all these things according to a plan based on the resources available and the needs of society as a whole. "In reality, the best way to produce food determines the social order. Only after the development and sublimation of science and agricultural technology can food production be completed in the family unit, can we get rid of the anti-Shi people and get out of this Shi society.

However, there is no unique path of development and evolution in any era. In this era since the big estate (big business). The Northern and Southern Dynasties embarked on different evolutionary paths. The Northern Dynasties were dominated by the government; The Southern Dynasty was dominated by large manor owners (big entrepreneurs).

After the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the history of the East and the West diverged, and the West developed in an aristocratic society until the Great Bourgeois Revolution in Europe. China, on the other hand, is gradually moving into a small-scale peasant society. Why did the great tree of human history fork in the Northern and Southern Dynasties? Only one or two can be found in the north and south. Naturally, we cannot look for answers in history, but we can find inspiration in history. The purpose of this book is to analyze the north and the south, and to look at the east and west.
