Chapter 0305: Natural and Man-made Disasters

On the way back to Yecheng, Qin Mu asked to see Shi Min.

"My lord, I don't know how you plan to deal with the chaos in the court?"

The "chaos in the DPRK and China" that Qin Mu said in his mouth naturally refers to Shi Zun's intention to collude with the princes of all parties, intending to disturb the Central Plains and fish in troubled waters. Fortunately, this chaos can be controlled by Cui Hao in the middle of the court alone.

Shi Min said lightly: "It's time to change to an obedient emperor." ”

"Who does the king want?"

"Shijian."

"Shi Jianqi is a very talented person, and he has outstanding strategy, but he lacks some courage. Let Shi Jian take the position, this is indeed a good choice. What does the king plan to do with the deposed Shi Zun? ”

Shi Min made a gesture to wipe his neck.

Qin Mu frowned and said: "King, although Shi Zun has lost his power and has become your palm, he is the great unification of Great Zhao after all, the king of a country, if it is not handled properly, I am afraid that it will attract criticism!" ”

"Is the widow the kind of person who is afraid of rumors and criticism?" Shi Min scoffed at this.

Now Shi Min's intentions have been exposed, that is, to replace Zhao and seek to usurp the throne!

For this kind of thing that wants to set up an archway and want to be a bitch, Shi Min disdains it, and can't do it!

How was Sima Zhao back then?

There is such a proverb that has been widely circulated - Sima Zhao's heart, everyone knows!

Back then, Cao Chao's palace was shocked, and he led hundreds of servants to Sima Zhao's mansion, wanting to kill Sima Zhao, but unfortunately blood splashed on the palace wall and died tragically on the spot!

Cao Chao was the first emperor in Chinese history to go into battle shirtless and assassinate a powerful minister with his own hands, but he failed.

Another emperor of personal heroism in ancient history was Yuan Ziyou of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Although he killed the ministers, he did not solve the problem of the ministers being in power. Compared with the powerful ministers of the country, the biggest weapon of the emperor who grew up in the deep palace was his own bloodline.

The gold-lettered signboard of "Emperor" can still scare the vast majority of people. For example, in the fight, Cao Chao's emperor light played a considerable role.

It is a pity that this is their only weapon, and it is a weapon that is constantly passivated.

As the power of the ministers consolidated and the people became disillusioned with the imperial family, the emperor's light gradually dimmed. What's worse is that for the henchmen of those powerful ministers, their interests are diametrically opposed to those of the emperor.

Cao Chao used the authority, nobility and dignity of the emperor to defend the authority, nobility and dignity of the emperor. The biggest reason for his failure was that he attached too much importance to the emperor's identity itself.

This little emperor, known as "Cai Tong Chen Si, Martial Taizu", ended his life at the age of 20 in this rare but understandable, noble and humiliating way.

To be honest, Shi Min admired this hot-blooded Emperor Cao Wei.

Cao Chao originally had no reason for the throne, but was just a noble countryman.

In the sixth year of Cao Wei Jiaping, Emperor Cao Fang of Wei was deposed by Sima Shi and demoted to the king of Qi. Because Cao Chao was Cao Pi's grandson, he was chosen to become the new emperor. Cao Chao was only 14 years old at the time.

Although young, he has witnessed the political realities of family upheaval, court strife, and the decline of the royal family, showing a maturity and sophistication that is not in keeping with his age.

Zheng Shiyan called him "talented and wise" and "has the amount of great success".

Cao Chao is not only able to speak and do things, but also has outstanding personal ability. In ancient times, an important way to examine a person's ability was to look at his understanding of Confucian works and his attainments in calligraphy and painting. Although Cao Chao was young, he was able to talk about the Book of Changes, the Book of Changes, and the Book of Rites with the older Confucian scholars in Taixue, and he was also able to talk about new ideas.

At the same time, Cao Chao is also one of the few painters in ancient history, and his paintings include "Zu Ershu Picture", "Thief Foot Map", "Yellow River Flow Map", "Xinfeng Chicken Dog Picture", "Portrait of Yu Ling Zhongzi", "Portrait of Qianlou Husband and Wife". Critics said of his works: "Its characters are realistic, and they are superior to the Wei Dynasty." ”

Perhaps it was the high quality of his personal qualities that made Cao Chao feel that he should take on the heavy responsibility of reviving the royal family.

In order to recover the hearts of the people who had been scattered and reform the politics, Cao Chao sent his servants to patrol the Quartet at the beginning of his reign, observe customs, comfort the people, and picket derelict officials. He set an example by changing the extravagant and hedonistic atmosphere of his grandparents' construction and construction, "reducing the use of public opinion and serving the emperor and the harem, and striking the beautiful and useless things of the palace and the hundred crafts of the palace."

In order to win the favor of the army, Cao Chao repeatedly issued edicts to mourn the soldiers who had been killed and wounded by the army, and to appease those places that had been traumatized by the war.

But all he could do was these symbolic measures, Sima Zhao firmly held the real power of the imperial court, and Cao Chao still couldn't escape the fate of the parrot in the golden wire cage.

The huge gap between ZTE's desire and the repression of reality caused Cao Chao's psychological imbalance, and coupled with his blood, he staged a scene of death and martyrdom shirtless.

The little emperor died violently, and he was indirectly killed by himself, how everyone in the clan treated this matter, Sima Zhao had no bottom in his heart.

He ran to the palace first, cried loudly at Cao Chao's corpse, and then ordered to convene the nobles and officials to discuss countermeasures.

Sima Zhao cried Cao Chao, this is the kind of thing that wants to set up an archway and want to be a bitch!

"If the king really wants to execute Shi Zun, in order to prevent future troubles. I have a plan here to remove some obstacles for you, the king. ”

"Please."

Shi Min knew that Qin Mu was scheming, but he didn't expect to come up with a countermeasure so quickly, so he asked.

Qin Mu said: "Right now, within my Zhao Kingdom, the emerging king Shiqi is guarding Sizhou, and he has tens of thousands of soldiers under his command, which should not be underestimated. If the king kills Shi Zun, he will give Shi Qi and the princes of various countries a name of crusade, and then my Zhao Kingdom will fall into war, all of which is contrary to your wishes, the king. ”

"Since the king wants to kill Shi Zun, he must kill the chickens and monkeys, and he must be fast! It's almost to the point where the little ones don't dare to move! ”

"What are the widows going to do?"

"Didn't Lord Tingwei intercept the secret edict that Shi Zun sent to Shi Qi? Wouldn't it be nice for the king to hand it over to Shi Wei and let Shi Wei reveal his intentions in advance, and when he rebelled, the king would suppress the rebellion with thunder again. ”

"So good! Ha ha! ”

"Peng Zuer, why don't you worship when you see a widow?" Shi Min was sitting precariously, looking not angry and arrogant.

Peng Zuer snorted coldly and said in a deep voice: "I, Peng Zuer, am a dignified seven-foot man, kneeling to the sky and kneeling to my parents, and never kneeling to the king who has no virtue and no deeds!" ”

"Bold!" The ministers in the court reprimanded Peng Zuer.

Shi Min waved his hand and said, "Peng Zuer, I ask you, why do you want to rebel?" ”

"If we can get by, do you think we want to rebel by pinning our heads to the waistbands of our trousers?"

Peng Zuer's words are really heart-wrenching.

Shi Min was silent for a while, and then asked Peng Zuer to be taken down, and he was beheaded at noon.

Yes, but if you can live and have a bite to eat, why should the common people rebel?

Whether it's a drought, a flood, an earthquake or whatever, in fact, it is the people who bear the brunt of the damage, and they suffer the most. ゑ新ダ(8)1 Chinese 碲ωωω.Ο‡8.1zΡ‰.cΓ²ΠΌ

Ordinary people are often displaced, struggling to make ends meet, and when this happens, complaints turn into complaints, and complaints escalate into abuse.

However, what is the use of scolding the heavens and the earth for natural disasters, it is better to find a back-erabbed man, who is the most suitable?

Emperor, of course!

Since ancient times, China has paid attention to the induction of heaven and man, which was originally a big lie told by ancient Taoists in order to maintain the rule of imperial power, used to propagate the idea of imperial power and establish the rationality of the ruling class.

However, the question is, the induction of heaven and man is also a double-edged sword, since it is the emperor's intention to make you the emperor, is the natural disaster not satisfied with you, the emperor?

And the oppressed, the common people, prefer to believe the latter.

And if you talk about a natural disaster, it must be a man-made disaster! Disasters are not terrible, the Chinese nation has been a nation of many disasters since ancient times, natural disasters occur every year, but the most complained about by the common people is not natural disasters, but man-made disasters.

Emperor Dusk, a sentence that the common people can't eat, why don't they eat meat porridge is still echoing in his ears, how can the people not hate. After the natural disaster, there are many cases of people who do not know how to relieve the people, but instead intensify their exploitation, how can the people not do the opposite, the risk of the concentration of imperial power is like this, since you want absolute rule, you have to bear these risks.

The peasants are the toiling masses at the bottom, who have always been in a position of oppression, and finally there is a natural disaster as an excuse, on the one hand, to rebel against the current rulers, and on the other hand, to desire power.

The history of China is reincarnated, and there is nothing new.

Every time there are natural disasters, followed by man-made disasters, the society enters riots, the dynasty changes, and the wealth is redistributed. Natural disasters can be saved, but the emperor of man-made disasters can't control them.

When a natural disaster occurs, it is a good opportunity for officials to make money. These bureaucrats are not greedy.

As long as the common people have something to eat, they will not rebel, and it is not a joke to lose their heads after all. But I couldn't even stutter, so I had to rebel against the emperor, maybe I succeeded, and I didn't starve to death!
