In the study room of Kunde Palace, Zhao Yao was reading the letter written to him by the third uncle.

Concubine Liang sat opposite him, seeing him frowning for a while, raising his eyebrows for a while, and soothing his eyebrows for a while, his expression was very exciting, and she asked with concern: "What did the third uncle write to you?" "Who the third uncle is, Concubine Liang has already learned from the emperor. However, she hid it from Zhao Yao.

"The third uncle's letter this time is written about history, and he asked me why each dynasty can't be long?" Zhao Yao frowned and said, "The Chen Dynasty once had a prosperous era of peace and prosperity, why did the Chen Dynasty die in less than three hundred years?" After speaking, he handed the letter in his hand to Concubine Liang.

"The third uncle also asked me, how many years can the Great Zhou last?"

Concubine Liang took the letter and looked down carefully. After reading it, she asked Zhao Yao: "Why do you think it is?" So how many years do you think the Great Zhou can last? “

Zhao Yao said: "It is impossible for the Great Zhou to last long, at most it can only last for more than three hundred years." ”

Concubine Liang returned the letter in her hand to Zhao Yao and asked, "Why don't you think that the Great Zhou can last for four or five hundred years?" ”

Hearing Concubine Liang ask, Zhao Yao asked in surprise, "Mother, didn't you see it?" ”

Concubine Liang didn't react, and asked a little blankly, "What do you see?" ”

"Throughout history, the longest lasting dynasty is more than 300 years, and it has never exceeded 400 years." Zhao Yao saw that Concubine Liang didn't find it, and showed a very surprised look on his face, "These three hundred years are a cycle, no matter which dynasty can't jump more than three hundred years, how can Da Zhou jump out of this cycle?" ”

When Concubine Liang heard this, she took back the letter from Zhao Yao's hand, looked at it carefully again, and found that the third uncle had listed all the dynasties from ancient times to the present, although she did not specify how many years it had been maintained, but it could be calculated with a little calculation, and she didn't notice it.

"That's true."

"The previous dynasty will also be three hundred and one years, and most of the other dynasties have not exceeded three hundred years." There are not many dynasties that are more than 300 years old.

"The fact that other dynasties have not exceeded four hundred years does not mean that the Great Zhou will not." Concubine Liang asked with a puzzled face, "Are you so sure that Da Zhou won't?" ”

Zhao Yao asked rhetorically: "Mother, do you think the Great Zhou can last for more than four hundred years, or even longer?" ”

"I don't think it's impossible." Concubine Liang had great confidence in the emperor.

Zhao Yao glanced at Concubine Liang deeply, and asked with a somewhat strange expression: "Mother, do you really think so?" ”

Looking at her son's expression of disbelief, Concubine Liang didn't understand why her son had such an expression.

"yes, I really think so."

Zhao Yao looked at Concubine Liang in surprise: "Mother, you really think so." ”

Concubine Liang looked confused: "Can't I think so?" ”

"Mother, who gave you the confidence to think that Da Zhou can surpass all the previous dynasties?" Zhao Yao asked in a strange tone, "Father?" ”

Concubine Liang felt that her son was laughing at her, although she had no evidence. She glared at Zhao Yao and said, "Yes, the confidence given by your father." ”

Zhao Yao muttered in a low voice: "Mother, you really like your father." ”

Concubine Liang didn't hear Zhao Yao's words clearly, and asked lightly, "What did you just say?" ”

Zhao Yao did not answer Concubine Liang's question, but said: "If the Great Zhou wants to maintain for four hundred years, unless every generation of emperors is as capable as his father, and every generation of emperors has to live a long time." Mother, you don't think that just three or four emperors like my father can make the Great Zhou last for four hundred years, right? “

He said again: "Mother, you should have heard of the saying that you can't be rich for three generations, right? Even if you have been rich for three generations, it is difficult to be rich for six generations, don't you find that every dynasty has a peaceful and prosperous era, and after the prosperous era it begins to decline. ”

Then he said: "When the water is full, it overflows, mother. ”

Concubine Liang listened to Zhao Yao's words and opened her mouth slightly.

"Mother concubine, more than three hundred years is a cycle, no dynasty can jump out of this cycle, and Da Zhou is no exception."

"Why is that?" Concubine Liang had read a lot of history books, but she had never discovered this.

"That's the purpose of this letter that Uncle San wrote to me." Zhao Yao looked at Concubine Liang, and seeing that she looked puzzled, he sighed softly, "Mother, you have read more history books than me, you don't have one, it's really ......"

Concubine Liang glared at her son again, and asked angrily, "What should I find?" ”

"Mother, why do you think each dynasty started very well, and there was a peaceful and prosperous era in the middle, but it began to decline as soon as the prosperous era passed, and it declined very quickly?"

Concubine Liang said: "Didn't you just say that when the water is full, it will overflow." ”

"In the previous dynasty, and the Chen dynasty, it began to decline after the prosperous era, but it did not completely decay, because there was a lord of Zhongxing, so that the dynasty continued for decades, or hundreds of years, but in the end it still perished, why is this?"

Concubine Liang's first reaction was that the emperor behind the Lord of Zhongxing had no talent. She felt that it was unlikely that it was the reason. She thought about it seriously and said: "At that time, there were more and more problems in the imperial court, and the last emperor could not solve them. ”

"Mother, you only see the surface."

"On the surface, what's the real reason?" As soon as Liang Zhaoyi finished speaking, she thought of a reason, "Family? ”

"The Maison is the apparent reason."

"What, the Saga is the apparent reason?" Concubine Liang asked in astonishment, "What is the real reason?" ”

"The real reason is the land." Zhao Yao didn't know what he thought, and his expression became a little subtle, "Mother, you shouldn't be pregnant, right?" "As the saying goes, being pregnant is stupid for three years, and the mother suddenly becomes so stupid, it can't be that she is pregnant.

"Nope." Concubine Liang didn't understand why her son said she was pregnant?

"No, why did you suddenly become so stupid, then concubine." Zhao Yao asked suspiciously, "Why don't you ask the imperial doctor to take your pulse......?"

Before he finished his words, his head was flicked by Concubine Liang's fingers.

"I'm getting bolder and bolder, I dare to make fun of your mother."

"I'm not making fun of me, I'm telling the truth, you're just getting stupid."

"Okay, the mother has become stupid, then you tell me why the land?" Concubine Liang asked shamelessly.

"To be precise, it is a problem of people and land, and this problem has existed since ancient times, why do the kings of every dynasty suppress and weaken the family?"

"There is power in the hands of the family."

"No, the most important reason is because the family has a lot of land." Zhao Yao said with a serious face, "The reason why the family can stand for hundreds of years, or even thousands of years, is because they have land, and land is their last retreat." ”

Liang Zhaoyi still doesn't quite understand. Because she grew up in a wealthy family, if it weren't for the riots in the previous dynasty, she wouldn't have suffered. The most important thing is that the Liang family has a lot of land.

"The families occupy more and more land, but the land that is distributed to the people is less and less, or even none, and the people have no land, which is equivalent to having no food to eat." Zhao Yao continued, "It's okay to have no food for a day or two, but if you don't have food for ten or twenty years, the people will revolt and rebel. ”

Hearing Zhao Yao say this, Liang Zhaoyi found that this was really the case.

"I see."

"The emperor's grandfather and father snatched a lot of land from the hands of the family, but the family still held a lot of land." Zhao Yao frowned and said, "To be honest, the land controlled by the royal family is not as much as that of the family. ”

"It's my ignorance, I've never thought about it." Concubine Liang was taught, and she hurriedly asked, "How did you find out?" ”

"I read the history books." Zhao Yao felt that Concubine Liang's question was a bit stupid, of course he wouldn't dislike it, after all, it was his mother, "Mother, what do you read in the history books, do you only look at the story of the rise and fall of each dynasty?" "The mother is more historical than him, and it turns out that the mother only knows the superficial history, which is really surprising.

"There are still people, but I didn't find the land problem behind the history." Concubine Liang suddenly felt that she had read the history books in vain, "It's me who is stupid." ”

"The emperor's grandfather and father encouraged the opening of the wasteland, just so that the people could have land, but the symptoms were not cured." Zhao Yao said with a slightly calm face, "If you want the family to obediently spit out all the land, this is very difficult, unless you directly destroy the family." ”

"The group of families in Yangzhou was eradicated by the emperor, but the gate valve family in the capital is not so easy to get rid of." Zhao Yao also said, "The family of gate valves in the capital has existed for thousands of years. ”

"If the Great Zhou wants to jump out of the cycle of more than 300 years, then it must control all the land in the world in the hands of the imperial court, and the imperial court must be clear and considerate of the people. However, it is not possible for every generation of emperors to be clear. ”

When Liang Zhaoyi heard this, she finally understood what Zhao Yao meant.

"In this way, it is true that each dynasty is no more than 400 years old."

"Land is the most important reason, but there are other important reasons."

"What else is the reason?"

"Mother, think for yourself." Zhao Yao thought for a while, and then said, "Mother, let's call the imperial doctor to show you tomorrow......"

Zhao Yao's little head was beaten hard by Concubine Liang with the book, "Mother, don't be angry." ”

Concubine Liang scolded angrily: "Stinky boy......"

"Mother, you've become stupid......"

Zhao Yao did not escape, but was finally caught by Liang Concubine and spanked by Liang Concubine on the leg. Of course, she was not willing to hit hard.

After playing for a while, the mother and son continued to read their own books.

Concubine Liang picked up the history book again, and Zhao Yao was replying to the third uncle.

After Zhao Yao finished writing the letter, he was going to let Tongxi leave the palace tomorrow and send it to his second uncle.

Concubine Liang saw that it was not too early, and reminded Zhao Yao to hurry back to the room to sleep.

Before Zhao Yao left, he once again told Concubine Liang to call the imperial doctor tomorrow to diagnose the pulse.

Concubine Liang smiled angrily: "This stinky boy ......"

Gui Xing walked over and said with a smile: "Niangniang, why don't you ask the imperial doctor to check your pulse in the unknown day?" ”

Concubine Liang stretched out her hand and poked Gui Xing's forehead, and scolded with a smile: "You also make fun of me." ”

"Maybe you're really happy, Niangniang?"

Concubine Liang shook her head and said, "No, I know my own body, if there is really joy, I will definitely know." She added, "I can't have any more children in my life." ”

When Gui Xing heard Concubine Liang say this, her eyes were full of distress: "Niangniang, don't think so, maybe you will give birth to a younger brother for Your Highness in the future." “

"I'm not upset." Regarding the fact that she could no longer be pregnant, Concubine Liang had already seen it, "Fortunately, Yaoyao has two good brothers, the fourth prince and the eighth prince." ”

"Mother's ......"

"Am I getting old, otherwise how could I suddenly become stupid?" Concubine Liang thought of the white hair on her head and let out a sigh of emotion, "It seems that she is really old." "She didn't even find out that each dynasty was not more than four hundred years old, nor did she discover the real reason for the decline of each dynasty. If Yao Yao hadn't told her this tonight, I'm afraid she wouldn't find out in her life.

"Niangniang, you are not old, nor have you become stupid, but Your Highness is too smart." Gui Xing exclaimed, "Your Highness is really too smart, fortunately, Your Highness has been pretending to be stupid." ”

"Yaoyao is not only smart, but also very careful." Liang Concubine said, "The most important thing is that he is very sensitive. She didn't see the real problem behind history, and Yao Yao had already noticed it. This kid ...... As the emperor said, Yao Yao, this kid was born to be the emperor's material.

I continue to ask for leave today, but I am still stuck, and I am not satisfied with the content I wrote.

Because I read the old iron of the message, I didn't build a group. Also, I'm afraid that I have set up a group, and the old irons will not speak in the group.

Here's a question, do the old irons want to join the group?

Actually, I'd like to hear what the old irons think. Now in the Carvin, maybe the old irons can have some good ideas.

In the end, I still ask for a monthly pass!
