Chapter Seventy-Eight: Commenting on Time and Politics

Cao Cao nodded when he heard this, and said: "Brother Bohou is reasonable, in the past, Emperor Wu Ping Xiongnu, exhausted the accumulation of two generations of Wenjing, and now the Qiang disaster has been going on for many years, and the national strength of the Han Dynasty is not as good as that of Emperor Wu, so it makes the Han Dynasty accumulate more evils, no wonder there are continuous rebellions in various places after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, even now Hedong is not necessarily peaceful." ”

After Cao Cao finished speaking, he turned to ask Zhang Xiudao: "What is Bo Yuan's opinion?" ”

Zhang Xiu smiled slightly and said: "Embroidery today's words, but it is out of my mouth and into your ears, and embroidery will not admit it after today." ”

Everyone saw that Zhang Xiu was serious, and they had a good time to wait for the views of this person who became famous in two articles a few days ago on current affairs. Zhang Xiu cleared his throat and said: "Brother Fang Cai Bohou also said that since the rise of Guangwu Zhongxing, there have been many Qiang disasters, not to mention it for the time being, since the Qiang disaster and the Yellow Turban Rebellion, there have been three Pingqiang wars. The first Pingqiang cost more than 24 billion yuan, and Liang Erzhou was empty; The second time Pingqiang used more than 800 million yuan, and Liang, You, and Ji were all affected; For the third time, Duan Ying broke Dongqiang, spending 4.4 billion. Although the Qiang disaster has stopped, Kansai has been defeated. Do you know why before the king was in turmoil, it was the most glorious time of my Han dynasty? ”

The data provided by Zhang Xiu is naturally known as long as people with a heart check the classics, and it is not very strange, but for the question that Zhang Xiu finally thrown, a few people were quietly pondering, Cao Cao saw Zhang Xiu throw out the question, and naturally knew that he had his own opinions, although he also had some ideas, but he also wanted to listen to Zhang Xiu's judgment first, so he asked: "Bo Yuan and tell me carefully." ”

Zhang Xiu nodded and said: "The way to govern the country is inseparable from civil governance and martial arts. Before Wang Mang's rebellion, Chang'an in Guanxi was the center of the world, and you also knew that Qin's soldiers were the elite of the world. The Han Dynasty takes Chang'an as the capital, that is, the combination of the armed forces west of the Yellow River and the culture of the east of the Yellow River, and the great governance of the cultural scene, the granaries of the world are full, so that the so-called cultural governance and martial arts are not lacking, so there is the peak of my Han Dynasty. ”

As soon as Zhang Xiu's words came out, everyone present nodded unconsciously, but Xun Yu asked: "Bo Yuan said so, that is, when Wenzhi and martial arts are not as good as Han Wu?" ”

Zhang Xiu shook his head and said: "Today's martial arts, watching Duan Ying's big break through Dongqiang, you can see that in fact, today's martial arts are compared to Han martial arts, and it is difficult to distinguish which is stronger and which is weaker. Speaking of Wenzhi, after Guangwu Zhongxing, the famous scholar Confucianism, Ma Rong and his disciple Zheng Xuan's achievements are not far behind the people who were full of learning before the king of recklessness, so it is also wrong to assert that after Guangwu Zhongxing, Wenzhi and martial arts are not as good as Han Wu. ”

Guo Jia nodded and said: "What Bo Yuan said is reasonable, but in Yijia's opinion, the chaos in the world has been nothing more than the emperor and the minister since ancient times. Emperor Ruoxian, then the court is clear, there are more gentlemen than villains, so upward and downward, natural political achievements are obvious, and the world is under great rule; If the king is faint and virtuous, it is like a tree, the branches are thick and the poles are withered, and there will be great disasters in the future; If the monarch and the minister are all virtuous, it is a hundred generations of strong dynasties, and they dare not commit anything; On the contrary, the disaster period is not far away, and it will be in vain. ”

Everyone nodded when they heard it, Cao Cao, Han Hao, Du Ji, and Jia Xu, who didn't know Guo Jia, heard Guo Jia's words, but they didn't dare to underestimate this poor scholar.

The drama Zhong next to Guo Jia saw that everyone was talking about it, so he also said: "Zhong thinks that the big Han is like this, and the family cannot escape its responsibility. Xi Zhong's words scolded all the families in the world, even a humble gentleman like Xun Yu couldn't help blushing a little. However, Xi Zhong is from a poor family, and it is normal for him to have such an opinion about the family.

Cao Cao, who was on the main seat, nodded his head when he heard it, obviously agreeing with Xi Zhong's opinion.

After Xi Zhong finished speaking, he may have felt embarrassed by Er Xun, but he said to the two: "Brother Wen Ruo and Brother Gongda are humble gentlemen, naturally not like ordinary families. ”

Several people are friends, and this will naturally not hurt their feelings, but Xun Yu said: "What Brother Feng Xiao and Brother Zhicai said is also reasonable, but Yu thinks that the Han Dynasty has arrived like a field, but because of the chaos of people's hearts, if people's hearts are not chaotic and their hearts are towards the court, how can they be like now, and there are endless rebellions everywhere." ”

Xun Yu's words are not wrong to point directly to the hearts of the people, but Zhang Xiu thinks more that the people who are in turmoil are families from all over the world, and the families from all over the country are not interested in the court, and it is difficult for the Han Dynasty to prosper, which is also the reason for the demise of the Han Dynasty. Zhang Xiu thought about it, and unconsciously showed a look of understanding, but this time he was seen by Xun You, so he asked: "What Brother Bo Yuan said seems to be unfinished, and I also ask Brother Bo Yuan for advice." ”

Zhang Xiu arched his hand and replied: "Don't dare to be, the words of several people are also reasonable, but Xiu has some different opinions." Seeing that everyone was listening carefully, Zhang Xiu said, "Do you know Han Fei, the master of the Legalists?" ”

Zhang Xiu's words are actually redundant, although the Han Dynasty is the only one who respects Confucianism, but the really well-educated people read the classics of the pre-Qin princes, and they are naturally familiar with Han Fei, but Han Hao frowned and said: "Naturally know, could it be that Boyuan thinks that Qin's severe punishment can save the Han?" ”

Zhang Xiu shook his head and said, "Qin's law is too harsh, if you use it, it will only make the world more chaotic." ”

Han Hao heard it and said curiously: "Why did Bo Yuan mention Han Fei?" ”

Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Han Fei is the culmination of the collection of legalists, when it is a law, a technique, and a potential, do you know what it means?" ”

Han Hao replied without thinking about it: "The law is a severe punishment, and the technique is the way for the emperor to hand over the affairs of the country to his subordinates, and the power is the power of the emperor, so it is also." ”

Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "That's right, but Xiu still has different opinions on Han Fei's combination of methods, techniques, and potentials." Embroidery thinks that the law is not a severe punishment, in fact, it is the law, or the rules, the so-called no rules are not a circle, and the same is true for governing the country, and rules are needed. However, the rules also have the same and inconsistent, in the past, the Zhou centimeter sealed the world, and its system met the needs of the world, so the Western Zhou Dynasty had more than 200 years. However, the king of Shenhou Lianping colluded with the dog Rong to kill the king of You, so after the king of Ping moved eastward, Qi, Lu and other countries were not satisfied, so the system set by the Duke of Zhou was broken, so there was the Spring and Autumn Warring States period. ”

After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "Speaking of the Qin State again, because of the change of Gongsun Marting, the Qin system was determined, which met the needs of the Qin State, so Qin was able to destroy the Six Kingdoms, but the Qin system was too harsh, not in line with the needs of the world, and the use of people's power was too much, so Qin died early." Later, Gaozu won the world, inherited the Qin system and changed its too harsh place, and the Qin system removed the too harsh place, which can actually make the world rule of the system, so there is the rule of Wenjing. Later, Emperor Wu was restructured, there were two dynasties in China and abroad, and he respected Confucianism alone, and the family gradually rose. At that time, the Chinese and foreign dynasties were equal in the court, but the foundation of the foreign dynasty was prosperous in foreign power, so Wang Mang was born with the help of the Confucian family and could usurp the Han. ”
