Chapter 106: The Son of Heaven is just an ordinary person
"It is because the people have no land to cultivate and no food to eat that they will eventually embark on the road of rebellion."
Speaking of these, Yang Ling was quite heartbroken.
Since he traveled to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he has seen countless victims who starved to death, and he has also seen countless granaries full of fat heads and big ears!
"Why don't they have arable land, because they are all occupied by the nobles!"
In ancient societies where industry and commerce were underdeveloped, land was an important means of production and the most important wealth.
Whether you are an official or a businessman, you will eventually turn the profits you get into land.
Land annexation can be said to be a stubborn disease that is difficult to suppress in feudal society!
"These soldiers, by virtue of their privileges, took the land from the people and plundered it."
"Eventually, more and more people are losing their land and displaced."
"Once they are about to starve to death in a year of famine, do you think they will choose to rebel?"
Yang Ling's tirade deeply impacted Cao Ang's thoughts.
Since he began to remember, all the education he has received has attributed the cause of the turmoil of the dynasty to the emperor's mediocrity, the tyranny of the eunuchs, and the instigation of the people by the three brothers Zhang Jiao, Zhang Bao, and Zhang Liang!
Including his father, none of them attributed the reason for the decline of the Han Dynasty to the Shi clan!
Cao Ang wanted to refute Yang Ling, but he opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to refute.
Because what Yang Ling said is obviously more reasonable!
"In the future, if you rule the world, remember to make sure that the people can have enough to eat, so that it is almost impossible for anyone to rebel."
Yang Ling said meaningfully.
Cao Ang nodded subconsciously, suddenly as if he remembered something, and hurriedly said,
"If you are like my father, you give the people seeds, farm tools, and cattle for free, and encourage them to cultivate the land. However, if all the land obtained is owned by the government, can land annexation be avoided? ”
"Yes, it could have been avoided."
Yang Ling nodded slowly,
"That's what I suggested to your father."
"What? Is it you, teacher?! ”
Cao Ang's body shook and his mouth opened wide in surprise.
Since he began to contact government affairs with Cao Cao, whether it is Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai, or Mao Jue, Liu Ye and others, they are full of praise for the new policy!
Cao Ang always thought that such a clever system was invented by his father.
But he didn't expect that it would be brought up by Yang Ling, who he despised!
"Ah, not only that, but there is also the reuse of the children of the Han family, Huaxia Digital...... I also proposed it. Any questions? ”
Yang Ling looked at him strangely.
"I didn't ...... No problem! ”
Cao Ang waved his hand again and again, and his heart was already speechless with shock.
No wonder his father would let Yang Ling be his teacher, it turned out that he was so talented!
I used to judge people by their appearance, and I almost missed such a great talent!
"What I want to teach you is to break out of stereotypes and see the world from a new perspective."
Although Cao Ang didn't understand anything about it, he still nodded respectfully,
"The disciple has written it down!"
While the two were talking, they had already walked to the side of the palace.
After Liu Xie's arrival, Cao Cao did not hesitate to spend money to build a palace in the city as the residence of the Son of Heaven.
Looking through the palace wall, you can faintly see the carved beams and paintings.
Yang Ling stopped and said with a smile,
"Childe, I'll test you again, what do you think of the Son of Heaven?"
"Huh?"
Cao Ang was stunned for a moment, and said honestly,
"When today's Zi Cong is young, he knows the big things and knows the general ......"
Yang Ling suddenly cried and laughed,
"Childe misunderstood, I just want to ask, what do you think is the Son of Heaven?"
Cao Ang reacted at this time, it turned out that Yang Ling didn't let himself evaluate Liu Xie, the son of heaven!
He thought about it for a moment, and said,
"The Son of Heaven, as the name suggests, is the Son of Heaven! Whether it is Gao Zu or Huan, Emperor Ling, or today's son, they are all ordered by the ...... of heaven."
"Stop, stop!"
Yang Ling hurriedly called Cao Ang.
"Teacher, am I not right?"
"Of course not! I said, you have to see the world from a new perspective! ”
A whole new angle?
Cao Ang looked confused.
He frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head and said,
"I don't understand what the teacher means."
"Okay, then I'll ask you! Since the Son of Heaven is the Son of Destiny, why is he born, old, sick and died like us, and needs to eat, drink, and sleep? ”
Yang Lingfa asked.
"This ......"
Cao Ang hesitated, but couldn't answer Yang Ling's question.
"Actually, to put it bluntly, whether it is the Son of Heaven or the prince and minister, they are just ordinary people!"
"Where are the children of destiny?"
"If the Son of Heaven is really favored by God, how can the young emperor kill Dong thief?!"
Yang Ling's words can be described as extremely rebellious!
When Cao Ang heard it, it was like thunder in his ears, and he was so shocked that he couldn't speak!
Emperor...... It's the same person as ordinary people?
Since Liu Bei established the Han Dynasty, it has been more than 400 years.
The idea that the Liu family rules the world and is destined for heaven has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people!
The values inherent in Cao Ang's heart were instantly shattered by Yang Ling.
He was there with his whole body, and his underwear was soaked!
"I've told you too much today, you go back and think about it first, and we'll see you tomorrow."
Yang Ling said slowly.
Cao Ang woke up like a dream, and hurriedly bowed respectfully,
"Whoa! The disciple retired first! ”
Seeing his attitude, Yang Ling nodded with satisfaction, it seemed that he had successfully fooled Cao Ang!
Before giving Cao Ang a lesson, Yang Ling was quite worried and didn't know what to say.
But when he thought about it, it was better to teach Cao Ang the concepts and thoughts of modern people!
With his own assistance, Cao Ang ascended the throne as emperor in the future, and the tragedy of the Wuhu chaos could also be avoided.
……
I have to say that what Yang Ling said today shocked Cao Ang too much.
He walked towards the mansion in a daze, his mind still echoing Yang Ling's words,
"Son of Heaven...... It's just an ordinary person! ”
"Zixuan!"
Cao Ang, who was in a daze, suddenly heard someone calling him.
He looked up, only to realize that he had returned to the mansion.
Father Cao Cao was looking at him with concern,
"Didn't you go to class with your husband, why are you so pale and unrelenting?"
Cao Ang glanced around and found that only Dian Wei was following behind Cao Cao, so he stepped forward and said,
"Father, what the teacher is talking about...... It's so shocking! ”
"Oh?"
Cao Cao was slightly stunned, glanced at Dian Wei behind him, and said softly,
"Come with me."
The three of them came to the study, and Cao Cao told Dian Wei to stay outside the door and not allow anyone to disturb him.
The father and son sat opposite each other, and Cao Cao said slowly,
"Hurry up!"
Cao Ang told his father about the process of today's class.
