Chapter 14 Survival and Culture
Although Li Jiancheng had long expected that he would be an 'outstanding' emperor! But when he heard that he was actually the apocalypse, he was still scorched by thunder, Li Jiancheng may not be very clear to other emperors, but this carpenter emperor still understands Li Jiancheng when he hears his name, why will he understand? Because there is a historical celebrity, he knows too well, Wei Zhongxian is 9,000 years old, there is Mu You, I have not watched historical dramas and martial arts dramas, I have seen Mu You, Wei Zhongxian has always been named BOOS.
Saying that this edict is too direct, Li Jiancheng doesn't want to vomit badly, he is now fully confirmed that he has traveled back to the park in 1620, and has walked backwards for nearly four hundred years, and he has become the famous carpenter emperor of the Apocalypse.
Pit dad, indeed pit dad, the father of the Emperor of the Apocalypse died after a month of being the emperor, and he didn't give people a time to prepare! Li Jiancheng realized a serious problem again, this doesn't mean that his fate will be controlled by the eunuchs, but Wei Zhongxian is the one? Li Jiancheng swept his gaze in front of the eunuchs one by one, the new emperor's strange initiative was naturally seen by everyone, Wang An was also a little weird, he stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, it's time for you to speak!" ”
What are the words, Li Jiancheng said, but suddenly he reacted again, isn't it just a speech, uh, cough, Li Jiancheng coughed twice, slightly concealed his mood, and he continued to make up and become serious. Why doesn't MD have a microphone? So many people here had to shout at the top of their voices: "Everyone, Aiqing, I am a first-time treasure, and I am still very young, before... I didn't have any experience in governing the country before! This is true.
"So this country still depends on you a lot, I still say that you Aiqing has a good way to govern the country, although I have used it, I only have one request, everything is based on improving the living standards of the people, and all policies that can be good for the people should be strongly supported!" Li Jiancheng said.
As soon as Li Jiancheng finished speaking, the courtiers below looked at each other one by one, and few of the ministers could understand Li Jiancheng's words, this is really Li Jiancheng's words are too trendy, these ministers have completely reacted, what is the 'national living standard', I don't understand!
However, at this time, there are still smart people, and at this time, when they don't care about these, Fang Congzhe, the first minister, took the lead and said: "My emperor is wise, and it is my great fortune to have a good heart for the people, and the ministers will be loyal and conscientious to solve problems for Your Majesty!" ”
Fang Congzhe patted the horse's ass, and the ministers immediately followed the horse's ass, only to pat Li Jiancheng's big ocean horse's butt into flowers, of course, the so-called political taste is also such a ass taste, what is the emperor for, not to make people pat the horse, Li Jiancheng understands this truth very well, he also wants to open, I don't even see a single hair of Wei Zhongxian now, Lao Tzu is still afraid of him, take one step at a time!
There was no actual action in the whole enthronement ceremony, and after the dispersal of the dynasty, Li Jiancheng was a little depressed, and he suddenly thought of walking on the walls of the Forbidden City. Waiting for the high city wall, Li Jianchen saw the scenery outside from the city wall, the capital of the Ming Dynasty was considered prosperous, and China already had a population of nearly 100 million in this era, which was really a superpopulous country at the level of the seventeenth century.
Looking at the scenery outside, he couldn't figure it out, what kind of emperor should I be, what is the apocalypse? It seems that the apocalypse hiccups after only seven years as an emperor in history, could it be that he is very short-lived? No way! No, no, Lao Tzu is not a soul, I just came here like this, the hardware equipment is a product of the super era! There's no reason why we can't compare to this kind of antique from the natural era, but we have survived the virus in the 21st century.
So it's just that the only thing worth worrying about is the internal problems in this imperial city, and this internal problem is actually not a problem in the final analysis, Li Jiancheng thought of the most effective way to solve the internal cancer in the 21st world, isn't that to fire squid? He Li Jiancheng can fire a large number of people, isn't it Wei Zhongxian, if he can't find someone else, Lao Tzu can open the Hakka family, this apocalypse nurse Wei Zhongxian's right-hand man. By the way, who else is Wei Chao, it seems to be Wei Zhongxian's father, relying on Lao Tzu to send him to guard the fish and let him Wei Zhongxian be the turtle son! Hum.
So thinking about it like this, Wei Zhongxian is nothing, wait, what am I doing, Li Jiancheng was irritable for no reason, I damn, I'm a traverser, I should have a bigger mission to worry about a little Wei Zhongxian, since I'm here, he has no chance at all! So what the hell am I being upset about? Li Jiancheng was a little stupid, he looked outside and didn't know what Lu Dao was doing, and he was irritable! He couldn't figure out what he was bothered about.
This may be Li Jiancheng's first trouble when he comes to this world, because of what? Do you feel like you can't go back, or is this unexplained sense of responsibility making you nervous? Maybe both. Yes, Li Jiancheng has a feeling like waking up from a dream, maybe he has been doing well these days, but when he knows who he is, a sense of loneliness and loneliness that he can't go back completely swallows him, this is the source of his uneasiness, and perhaps what makes him even more uneasy is the entire dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, Li Jiancheng is the Ming Dynasty who knows the Tao of the Ming Dynasty is almost going to die at this time, who is he Li Jiancheng, he is a ** silk, primary school diploma, He didn't even be the director of the chalk field, and asked him to be the emperor to deal with state affairs, don't joke.
I used to read YY's historical novels and felt very touched by others being the emperor Li Jiancheng, but when Li Jiancheng himself came, how difficult it was for me to change the thinking of a country by myself. In fact, let alone a country, he can't do it alone! For example, take Wang An, the eunuch and the domestic slave in front of him, the despair of this era is too terrible.
As soon as you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea, which is a sentence recognized in people's hearts since ancient times. But these words are said to those ladies, and in turn, to the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace? Maybe there is only one sentence that is full of meaning, the master humiliates the slave and dies, and the rabbit dies and the dog cooks.
Palace maids and eunuchs have no right to choose, in ancient times, servants had no human rights, and their life and death, honor, dignity, and even self were completely pinned on another person, what kind of concept is this? Coming back can only be expressed in one word, an ancient word, lowly!
The word "lowly" seems to be born to be printed on the slaves, and in ancient China they not only printed it, but also called it out by themselves, such as slaves, slaves, concubines, and so on. From these aspects, we can see some of the core ideas of the ancient Chinese people. For example, the self-proclaimed women and servants of 'slaves, slaves, and concubines', what is this called, from a modern point of view, this is called labeling, what is the purpose of labeling, the simplest is to occupy! And this occupation is not just a physical slavery, but a spiritual and permanent slavery of a group of people.
In ancient China, the literati said that the original was the binding of etiquette and culture, and one was to refer to outsiders as barbarians. In fact, it is true that no country in history has so many literary ideas in ancient China, and when China developed writing into a culture, many countries of the same era still regarded it as a kind of theocratic or imperial ruling tool, and no one except the clergy and the royal family was allowed to study it! Words are the foundation of a culture, and the label on words is like a sword inserted in the spirit. The sword of the slave label is constantly stabbed at the slaves, and it also stabs at the minds of all people in the whole era, when everyone calls it that, then he becomes an inherent concept and no one mentions his unreasonableness, this is the essence of culture! Therefore, it is fundamentally impossible for Li Jiancheng to spiritually change this era of culture.
Because of what? In modern times, many people discuss what kind of culture is a good culture, and more people answer that a moral culture is a good culture! But actually! Morality is divided into a kind of morality of the times, just as in ancient China, etiquette and law stipulate that enslaving others is not without morality, it can be seen that the concept of morality is still determined by people, and if there is morality, there is morality, and if there is none, there will be none. Therefore, it is not a benchmark to pacify the quality of a culture in terms of morality, and the most basic method is a word dignity! A culture with this dignity is a good culture!
Dignity is a word that originated in ancient China to describe those who were powerful and powerful, and its rise was used in the West to describe 'freedom, and human rights'.
This is a huge gap, to put it simply, the whole ancient Chinese cultural theme is that it has no dignity, in fact, it has no dignity (note that the dignity I mean here refers to 'freedom and human rights'), the merchant has no dignity in front of the soldiers, the peasants have no dignity in front of the landlords, the landlords have no dignity in front of the officials, the officials have no dignity in front of the emperor, and the emperor's dignity has been locked in the Forbidden City all his life, and there is no freedom;
Li Jiancheng has been thinking about a question before, why did ancient China, which had such a flourishing culture, have no 'dignity'? Isn't there anyone who is aware of the problem? The wind of civilization was blown into China by the West, and later a small incident allowed Li Jiancheng to completely peek into this secret.
This little thing is what once made it painful, this is 'exam, endorsement' referred to as studying! , I believe that many children have this kind of thinking like Li Jiancheng, there is no way that this is a cultural experience. Later, Li Jiancheng dropped out of school to mix with society and mixed survival value, which made him understand a truth: TMD has no relationship between survival and culture!
Yes, the so-called existence and culture have nothing to do with 'directly', and this sentence sums up the origin of 'dignity', and freedom and human rights come from oppression and death. In other words, in ancient Chinese society, he had a lot of room for cultural contraction, which is also why in ancient China, he only had peasant uprisings, and there was no such thing as slave uprisings. Although all people are oppressed, they can survive, which is not at all like the situation at the beginning of Western immigration, without the right to live, they have the right to fight back and resist, and only when the living environment is unreasonable will people change the culture to make it reasonable. In ancient China, although he was also a world of slavery, he was a system of interests with a bottom line of survival, and even the emperor's slaves were paid.
In other words, in ancient China, it was a world that could 'survive'! Therefore, no matter how culture evolves under the condition that it satisfies the right of the majority of people to live, it will not change the thinking of the entire nation, nor will it have breakthrough progress!
Even Confucianism originated in an era when existence was extremely oppressive, and it was precisely because of this oppression that the figure of Confucius was born. During the period of Confucius, the burial of living people flourished, which shows how there was no human rights at that time, so Confucius vigorously promoted the ideas of Confucianism and benevolence, and vigorously opposed such things as human sacrifice. Cultural progress comes from the change of survival This is the truth, for the Chinese who rose in the oppression of the great powers in the 19th century, we understand this truth better than anyone else, the same even in today's high proclamation of human rights and freedom, the direction of survival is still the guiding sign of cultural development, this is just like the education reform that China is calling for now, what is the reason? Cultural change is always the first step in survival!
