Now that the score is on display, the music must be persistent. Emperor Yang Guang wanted to boast and show off to the tribal leaders of these ethnic minorities, which could be regarded as a full head. First of all, let the famous architect Mr. Yu Wenkai build a big tent. Don't you Turks don't build houses, you all live in tents? Okay, then I won't build a house, I don't need my strengths to be shorter than yours, I'll use your strengths to play with you. Once the tent is built, call these minority leaders to come and visit. The leaders were stunned when they came to see it, this tent was very large at all, and it could be regarded as a giant. You Turks can sit in that tent, a large family can eat and drink in it, sing and dance, at most more than ten people. But the tents made by our Dasui designers are dozens or even hundreds of times that of yours. That guy, a tent can seat thousands of people. It is estimated that there will be no problem for APEC to hold its annual meeting. And that's not all. Hold your chin tight. On July 7 of that year, Yang Guang set up a big tent in the east of the Turkic capital and prepared honor guards. What is this going to do? He called his civil and military officials and honor guards, and then asked the best pop musicians of the Great Sui to play the most popular music in the Central Plains at that time, taste food and wine, and feast the leaders of various tribes. The carnival has gone to a foreign country. Good guys, these leaders have all grown up in the harsh living environment outside the fortress all day long, who has seen this posture, they are all dumbfounded. After the incident, they rushed to offer their own tribe's cattle, sheep and horses to the emperor. I wonder if this counts as a bill? What about the emperor of the Han nationality here, face is more important than life. When the wine is hot, the mood is naturally very comfortable. As soon as the emperor was happy, he rewarded him again (anyway, if he doesn't cultivate or weave, the treasure and silk are a number in his play). Good fellow, this is a one-time reward of 20 million pieces of silk silk for the first Qimin Khan. In addition, Qimin Khan was given chariots and horses for the court (it is estimated that Qimin would not be used several times in his life), and he was also given the privilege of praising and worshipping the name (the emperor did not call Qimin's name when he heard the message). It is estimated that the Turks will not be able to understand these vain things. But they didn't know that this was a symbol of political identity and status in the Central Plains Dynasty. When the emperor went to the side, he didn't make any important speeches or anything, didn't symbolically encourage the big guys, and didn't give everyone a salary increase or a subsidy. The mission is new.

When the emperor went to the side, he didn't make any important speeches or anything, didn't symbolically encourage the big guys, and didn't give everyone a salary increase or a subsidy. The mission is new. Seeing that this border affairs are insufficient, he ordered Hebei Ding Nan to build the Great Wall by millions of people. From the Khan's tooth tent in the west, the Inner Mongolia Jungar Banner was repaired to the Purple River (Inner Mongolia Ulanchabu Menghun River). Anyway, he doesn't have to sweat hard, and he can finish with his mouth turned up and down. The emperor is patrolling the border and engaging in infrastructure construction and image projects, so the abuse and consumption of people's power is too big. Some of the old ministers who followed Emperor Wen of Sui to fight the world couldn't look at it anymore and said something that they had some opinions on the status quo. But what they didn't expect was that just these few little complaints actually caused them to be killed! When the Great Wall was being built, Shangshu's left servant shot the old minister Su Wei and advised him, but Yang Guang didn't pay attention to this old Comrade Su at all. Twenty days to complete, delivery and acceptance. The emperor thought to himself, you say that I abuse the people's power all the time, and I didn't delay the life and work of these migrant workers for 20 days, didn't you just give them a few days' wages, and didn't see a few starve to death? Besides, the construction of the Great Wall is a national defense project, and in economic terms, it is a public good, so shouldn't they contribute to the construction of national defense? Besides, this emperor's conquest of music, that is, collecting and sorting out these popular music from all over the country, this Taichangqing Gao Xi, who is in charge of music etiquette (this guy has long been squeezed out of the core of power by Emperor Wen and Yang Guang), he can't stand it, which is also mixed with admonishing Yang Guang, and Yang Guang doesn't listen. The right to make decisions and the right to make decisions is definitely in the first place. In this way, power is concentrated. It is said that "unity is strength" and "concentrate on doing great things". This is the order, which is the feudal norm that Confucius has always maintained and dominated. Confucianism believes that if everyone follows this program, the society will not be chaotic. But it is a pity that the rogue monarch always took the lead in violating this rule by "only allowing the governors to set fires and not allowing the people to light lamps". Because of this power, he has two good sons. This boss is called inequality, and the second is called exclusivity. The monarch and the people, whoever has the final say, it will be clear. So, well, in China. As long as the common people are not forced to die of starvation, they rarely see a natural mob. There is no shortage of tyrants, and these tyrants are just as violent as this house price, which fully gives us a taste of what it means to be "not the most violent, only more violent". Tyrants are stubble after stubble, and it is really "wildfires that can't be burned, and the spring breeze blows and grows". Contradictions and problems ensued. If the Bodhisattva manifests and allows the people to meet a holy monarch and a wise monarch, then we have to sing praises and say how this luck is good, and how it is that such a good leader is displayed. The author of the history book is also energetic, so he must be recorded in a big book, lest everyone forget him. If you meet this monarch is a villain, hehe, I'm sorry, you think you're unlucky. When encountering the Ming Monarch or the Holy Monarch, the superiority of the feudal system will be fully excavated, and under the obstacle of no fetters, move forward quickly, and lead everyone to collectively run to a well-off. It's a pity that ~ this probability is too low. A good system will make the bad people stand in the way, but a bad system will make it difficult for the good people to gain a foothold or even have to go along with the dirt, otherwise they will be out. Brother Gao Xi got involved in this kind of thing. As a minister, although he has made great contributions to the empire, although he is so good, he is actually a vulnerable group, and the higher the power of this minister, the greater the danger. Under the authoritarian ruling model, except for the emperor, the more power the others have, the smaller the power, the more the minister is definitely a vulnerable group. He has every choice. Putting himself in the right position, that was his only option. Talking nonsense, expressing personal opinions? That's not going to drop. It is necessary to unite under the leadership of the monarch, and if you want to be right, you will be right to the end. But if it's wrong, hehe, then you have to resolutely and completely lose everything. Once you break the rules, hehe, sorry, then there is a price. If you roll up and go home, you will move your head. If you expect to meet a leader who is happy when you smell it, there will be green smoke on the ancestral grave. However, the phenomenon of searching through the history books is almost non-existent, and the few who do it later find out that it is all an ulterior attempt. Gao Xi saw that he was talking to the emperor, and the emperor ignored him. There's a problem. What should I do? Closed like Solvay? Or are they like Pei Ju, Yu Shiji, and others who turn a deaf ear to Mingzhe to protect themselves? Or simply like Yu Wenshu and Pei Yun's gang, sing praises with the emperor to celebrate the prosperous world, and dance with wolves? Tall is in trouble. One can ruin miè's own ** annoyance. In the face of the emperor's perverse behavior, the old minister Gao Xi repeatedly advised the emperor, but did not make the emperor have a little restraint. Ordinary people just stop there. Or be silent, or take the initiative to cooperate, or even directly enjoy with the emperor. But Gao Xi is not an ordinary person. He said to Li Yi, Taichang Cheng (his direct subordinate): "The absurd and stupid Tianyuan Emperor Yu Wenyun of the Northern Zhou Dynasty liked lewd pleasure as much as he does now and died in the country. "It's not over yet. This guy has a high sense of responsibility. In response to the emperor's banquet for the excessive scale of Qimin, he said to Taifu Qing He Chou: "These barbaric Turks, our hole cards have been thoroughly explored by these people, if there is a police, we will finish playing if they make a move." "This tall man is a talker, and he has to continue. He said to Wang Yangxiong, the clan watcher: "At present, the discipline of the imperial court is very bad, and the phenomenon of trampling on laws and rules is relatively common. Gao Xi made his strongest voice. He is very dedicated and conscientious. But he forgot about it, and the water in officialdom is very deep. Officialdom is like a battlefield, although you can't see the shadow of swords and swords, but the result is not much different from the battlefield, and there will still be a river of blood. As a veteran minister, it is taboo in officialdom to discuss government affairs without permission, and the higher the status, the more dangerous it is. Originally, the emperor didn't want to see you, and hung you up, in charge of the Taichang Temple, which had no function. You should be clear. He has been expelled from the core area of power. What's more, there are so many wolf-like bunches around waiting to see you finish the game and then carry your head to follow closely. Well, you're calling it a handle. He was good at discussing court politics with many officials and made remarks contrary to the court and the emperor. Do you dare to guarantee that what you say will not be used by others? Do you dare to guarantee that the person you are talking to is of the same mind as you? Didn't anyone leak out? Reality has proved that this guy has indeed leaked out. Otherwise, Mr. Sima Guang would not have been recorded. From this point of view, although Gao Xi is super capable, he is an old minister. Mixed on the road, he is still very tender. History has passed, and we can no longer distinguish the ingenuity, as I said earlier, we can only speculate on the psychological activities behind the actions of the parties from the perspective of historical data and human nature, and nothing else! We can interpret Yang Guangsan's expedition to Goguryeo from the aspects of history, politics, economy, culture, and individuals. Personally, I feel that the geopolitics behind this matter accounts for a large proportion, followed by the national character. At that time, the whole of East Asia had been completely subdued, and the invincible ** had fallen with a bang, and the Western Turkic Chuluo Khan was still a guard of Yang Guang, and which of the other chiefs of several tribes in the north and south did not submit to the Great Sui? It is like a status similar to that of today's US imperialism, an absolute world policeman. Only Goguryeo, the thorn in the thorn, shouted five drinks and six fists to Silla and Baekje, who submitted to the Great Sui, if Goguryeo is allowed to come here, then the face of the Great Sui and the status of the leader of the political alliance will not be guaranteed, which is unbearable for the empire. From the perspective of national psychology and character, under the kidnapping of feudal collectivism, individual interests completely gave way to the overall interests of the empire, and the will of the governor became an important part of the culture of the Han people, which has continued until now. You don't see that the current Chinese still regard face as more important than life, regard the so-called love as more important than anything else, and can even trample on the system and law. Although this kind of righteous sentiment is the most unreliable, the Chinese are like this. After analyzing and analyzing, I think the reason is still in the national culture and national character, which cannot be explained clearly, and the official sentence makes it clear: cultural differences! Yang Guang's Three Expeditions to Goguryeo, I will talk about it right away, all kinds of ridiculous things and ridiculous things make you feel even more sour after reading it, our ancestors tossed like this? Are we progressing now? Fifteen hundred years have passed, killing, digging, planting, cold-bloodedness and extreme selfishness, nothing has changed, the mistakes made in the front are made in the back. As the saying goes: wildfires can't be burned, and the spring breeze blows and grows! Because our culture is not progressing, because we have not reflected at all, because our leaders are so selfish and narrow-minded!
