Chapter Fifty-Eight: Emperor Qin and Han Wu

"Sir, can the Great Han Dynasty you said be comparable to the Great Qin? Can that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty be compared to the First Emperor? Monchongde asked.

"This is really not comparable, the merits of the two are different, and they have made great contributions to Huaxia." Qin An said.

"Sir, I think the First Emperor is more powerful than the Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. In ten years, the First Emperor successively destroyed the six kingdoms of Han, Zhao, Yan, Wei, Chu, and Qi, and achieved the goal of unifying the four seas.

That's a lot of work. Gongzi Gao said.

Fusu also followed: "That's right, I also think that the First Emperor is the most powerful. He also conquered Baiyue in the south and the Xiongnu in the north, and unified currency, writing, weights and measures, etc. He ordered the destruction of civilian weapons and the relocation of the nobles of the Six Kingdoms of Shandong to Guanzhong, making the rule of Great Qin even stronger. ”

Qin An nodded and said, "You two are right, but you still missed a lot of the First Emperor's great achievements. ”

"What are we missing?" Fusu and Gongzi Gao asked at the same time.

Meng Chongde and Li Xiao couldn't help but wonder, what have we forgotten?

Qin An smiled, then picked up the homemade teacup on the table, and said with a smile: "After unifying the country, Qin Wangzheng thought that he was superior to the three emperors and five emperors, and created the honorific title of "emperor", calling himself the first emperor.

Since then, a feudal dynasty that lasted for 2,000 years appeared, and he laid the foundation of the feudal dynasty.

The emperor is the supreme ruler of the country, who can decide everything in the state and directly appoint and dismiss important central and local officials.

Not only that, the first emperor also implemented the county system in the whole country, divided the country into 36 counties, abolished the feudal system, and implemented a special system. Institutionalism is centralized.

This has led to the emergence of the concept of great unification in the country, a China is the belief in the hearts of each of us, and anyone who dares to subvert a China is a traitor, a traitor to China.

Zhao Su, you want to divide the world in your heart, I said it, that will lead to the division of the country.

Although centralized authoritarian. system, occasionally there will be a faint monarch who leads to the demise of the dynasty, but the country has not died, the country is still a country, nothing has changed.

So after the Han Dynasty, there were very few dynasties with a feudal system, even if the emperors knew that their dynasty would decline, they still did not divide the feuds, because they all had an idea in their hearts, that is, there was only one Huaxia in China, a complete Huaxia. ”

Fusu's heart was shocked, one Huaxia, one complete Huaxia, there is only one Huaxia in everyone's hearts, there is no Qin, there is no Zhao Chuqi and other six countries.

That's right, the current Great Qin is a complete Great Qin, there are no Six Kingdoms, and there is only one Great Qin in the hearts of the people.

If I divide the world again, the people of that fiefdom only have their lords in their hearts, and there is no Great Qin, then the country will be divided again, and in the end there may be no unified China.

I'm so stupid, why didn't I think about it before.

"Thank you, sir, for your advice, the students remember, and the students will never indulge in the envelope again." Fusu said sincerely.

"Sir, what about Emperor Wu of Han? What can he compare to the First Emperor? Childe asked.

Meng Chongde said: "In my heart, the achievements of the First Emperor are unrivaled in the world, so how can Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty compare with the First Emperor, it is simply a fool's dream." ”

"That's right, it's a dream." Li Xiao said.

"You two don't make blind conclusions, although I also think that the First Emperor is stronger than the Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, but we need to listen to what Mr. has to say first." Childe Gao said.

Fusu followed and said: "Don't talk about it, let's continue to listen to Mr. talk about history, I also want to know what ability this Emperor Wu of Han has to compare with the first emperor." ”

"The four of you are simply blind fans of the First Emperor. Oh, by the way, you don't know what fans mean, that's what admirers mean. Qin An said with a smile.

Everyone suddenly realized, and almost thought that they had exposed their stuffing, which made them scared for a while.

Qin An continued to pass: "I said that after the founding of the Han Dynasty, the policy with the Xiongnu was based on harmony, that is, to marry the princess to the Xiongnu, this policy is the shame of the Han Dynasty.

However, the people have been unable to survive in the years of war, and the people have no way to experience the war again.

In addition, the Hun cavalry is notoriously fast, and the cavalry of the Han Dynasty can't keep up with the speed of the other party, so there is no way to do it.

So after several generations of emperors recuperated, and then Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ascended the throne, and it is recorded in the history books that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was only sixteen years old when he ascended the throne. ”

"Hmph, he is not as good as the First Emperor in this regard, but the First Emperor ascended the throne at the age of thirteen." Childe Gao said.

Qin An said with a smile: "Although they ascended the throne three years apart, their situation after ascending the throne is similar, the first emperor has Lü Buwei to control the government, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has his grandmother Dou to control the government. ”

"It turns out that the situation of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and the First Emperor is so similar." Everyone's hearts couldn't help but move.

"Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, reigned for a total of fifty-four years, which is also a very long-reigning emperor in history." Qin An said with some envy.

During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he adopted Dong Zhongshu's suggestion of "deposing the hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone" to unify his thinking and emphasize imperial power.

At this time, Confucianism became an important thought for two thousand years, and it was also the main idea, and even the imperial examination was a Confucian thing.

Strategically, the Han Dynasty conquered all directions, conquered the world, and expanded its territory.

For the border threat of the Xiongnu, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty actively fought the main battle, so heroes such as Wei Qing, Huo Quzhi, and Li Guang appeared.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also sent Zhang Qian to the Western Regions, so the "Silk Road" was opened, and all the countries in the Western Regions knew that there was a big country in the East, the Han Dynasty.

So Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ordered Princess Xijun, Princess Xie Wu and Qin Wusun in turn to attack the Xiongnu, defeat the Xiongnu, make the Xiongnu vassals, and even set up envoys in the Western Regions to control the Western Regions.

Moreover, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty further strengthened the centralization of power and promulgated the "Tui En Decree", which will set up a history of assassination, weaken the power of the prime minister, and further weaken the power of the vassal king.

Set up "Taixue", actively recommend talents, reform the bureaucratic system, Confucian scholars have entered the court, and improve the "inspection system" of Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, to create filial piety.

Improve the "Yuefu" mechanism, and the poems of the Han Dynasty collected and preserved by the imperial court Yuefu system or the music management agency equivalent to the function of Yuefu will eventually form the Han Yuefu and so on.

It's just that in the end he made the same mistake as the First Emperor, obsessed with witchcraft, immortals, etc., which led to chaos in the imperial court, the crown prince committed suicide, and the number of displaced people in Kanto reached more than two million.

Since then, the Han Dynasty has gone into decline, which is the phenomenon of prosperity and decline.

And after the Three Kingdoms, there is another sentence, the world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time.

These two phenomena are the main phenomena of the feudal dynasty in China for more than 2,000 years.

Okay, it's almost time to get out of class, and I won't assign homework today, so you go back and review well, and I'll give you an exam tomorrow. ”
