Chapter 206: Character Determines Fate
"Under such a harsh decree, the whole society was panicked, which directly led to the fact that in the last years of the Sui Dynasty, even if the treasury was full, the officials did not dare to open a warehouse for disaster relief, the country was rich and the people were poor, and the Sui Dynasty perished."
"Emperor Wen of Sui doesn't know the general situation, he suspects that the officials are corrupt and bribery, but because there is no evidence, he actually sent his subordinates to deliberately take money to bribe those small officials, and if anyone accepts it, he will be beheaded immediately.
"Emperor Wen of Sui ended the centuries-long and most chaotic period of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties in Chinese history, personally created the richest era in Chinese history, reconstructed the East Asian order centered on the Sui Dynasty, attached importance to culture and education, opened up science and scholars, and established the system of three provinces and six ministries that lasted for more than 1,000 years, but some of his practices also contained the roots of the Sui Dynasty's troubles."
"It's not an exaggeration to say that his character determines his fate."
Zhao Kuangyin: Tang Taizong's treatment of the Sui Dynasty, we in the later dynasties also know well, to be honest, no matter how ridiculous, sarcasm is sarcasm, what Emperor Wen of Sui did in his later years has already swollen his face.
Zhu Yuanzhang: When I talked about Queen Dugu earlier, I could see that Queen Dugu accounted for half of the world in the Great Sui, and without her, it would be difficult for Yang Jian to become a hegemon!
Liu Che: After the queen spoke in the early stage, I didn't think that this person could still be on the outstanding list, Zhu Yuanzhang spoke ugly, but what I listened to was extremely pleasant, I also thought that there was no Dugu Jialuo, and Yang Jian would not be able to become a hegemon!
Li Shimin: A person who is not good at reading, why he can reach the status of the founding emperor is because the son inherits his father's title, because of the snobbery of his woman Dugu, including when he Emperor Wen of Sui won the world, it was also the decision of Queen Dugu, and the policy of becoming the queen almost has the shadow of Queen Dugu, and the funny thing is that he still thinks that he spoils his wife, the former dynasty doesn't know, and the later dynasty doesn't know? After Dugu Jialuo died, what happened to Emperor Wen of Sui!
Yu Qian: It's a flash in the pan! Back then, the Great Sui Empire under the rule of Kaihuang was so strong, but all this was short-lived.
Li Shimin: It is also quite ironic that Emperor Wen of Sui killed heroes in the later period, as the monarch of the Sui Empire, Emperor Wen of Sui killed the famous general Shi Wansui itself was wrong, if it wasn't for his suspicion, maybe the Great Sui Empire would not collapse so quickly, yes, it was Emperor Wen of Sui who single-handedly created the Sui Dynasty, but it was also his last hand to destroy the Sui Empire.
Gao Ying: Why? You have given me all my achievements, so why should you doubt my faithfulness?
Meng Tian: This is one of the loyal ministers who was killed?
Li Zhi: It is said that Emperor Wen of Sui has a suspicious personality, this kind of emperor can't have the slightest sign of being a master, just like Mr. Zhang Liang, he should retreat.
Liu:......
Qianlong: Don't you know who you are? is also smarter than this Emperor Wen of Sui.
"Gao Ying was indeed pulled up by Yang Jian, this matter has to start with Yang Jian as an auxiliary minister, there were other people who were staring at this position at that time, Yang Jian is a person who has little ability, and his son inherits his father's business, how can he be an auxiliary minister?"
Fusu: Even if the son inherits his father's title, isn't there still the snobbery of the Dugu family? Why is there still opposition?
Yang Jian: How can it be so simple, the auxiliary minister is staring at me with fierce eyes, and Yu Wenyun doesn't trust me.
He Shen: Emperor Wen Sui's luck is indeed envious, it is a God's reward to survive and become the founding emperor!
"Emperor Wen of Sui's merits and demerits have actually been finished, I originally only wanted to talk about Gao Ying, but now I want to briefly talk about the establishment of the Northern Zhou Dynasty."
Zhu Di: It's okay to talk about it, Yu Wenyun, this kid doesn't look at him as a faint monarch and lewdness, he still has a bit of the ability to govern the country as a ruler, as if he was born and is a little sensitive to this aspect, but it's a pity that this kid has ruined this ability.
"The establishment of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was to connect the Wuhu and Sixteen Kingdoms and the Eastern Jin Dynasty at that time."
"From Cao Cao's Cao Wei, to Sima Yi's seeking power, and then to Sima Yan's Jin Dynasty, although they are not the same surname, the country is also unified, and the world will be united for a long time."
But unfortunately, Sima Yan's Jin Dynasty was not a long-lived dynasty, Sima Yan himself was not a qualified founding monarch, not long after his death, there was a "Rebellion of the Eight Kings", and the Western Jin Dynasty was completely finished, becoming the Five Hu Sixteen Kingdoms and the Eastern Jin Dynasty. ”
"Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms! In the north at that time, there were many large and small countries, and in the south, Sima Yan's descendants did not die, and went to the south to establish a partial security regime. ”
At this time, there are so many countries that you can doubt your life, maybe you can sleep at night, and the next day you will become a person from another country, and your personal success also fully reflects what is called "Thirty Years of Hedong and Thirty Years of Hexi". ”
It wasn't until 439 that there was a person named Tuoba Tao who destroyed the Northern Liang and established the Northern Wei Dynasty, which was considered to be a stop, 130 years, from the "Eight Kings Rebellion" to the Northern Wei Dynasty to destroy the Northern Liang, the north was truly unified, at this time the Eastern Jin Dynasty was also killed by Liu Yu and entered the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties. ”
"Of course, there is still a long time before the establishment of the Northern Wei Dynasty and Yang Jian's birth, and there are still 101 years to go, but the Northern Wei Dynasty is very important, because the later Northern Zhou Dynasty was split from the Northern Wei Dynasty."
"By the time Emperor Yuan Xiu succeeded to the throne of Emperor Xiaowu of the Northern Wei Dynasty, it was already 532 AD, and Li Yuan Xiu was the emperor's minister, and he was called Gao Huan."
Emperor Xiaowu Yuan Xiu is a puppet, Gao Huan is the real ruler behind the Northern Wei Dynasty, but Yuan Xiu is a talented and ambitious puppet, so he still wants to struggle. ”
"It's because of his struggle this time that the later Northern Zhou will appear, if he doesn't struggle, it is estimated that there will be nothing to do in the Northern Zhou, and the world will be happy."
Li Shimin: This one deserves it, he doesn't have that ability, but he thinks a lot.
Li Longji: It's a lot of fun, I really deserve it, I really think I'm a dish!
Liu Bowen: Isn't it just a dish! A must-eat dish.
"Yuan Xiu was just a Chinese scholar at the beginning, and he was named a general because of some military exploits."
"In 530 AD, he was named the king of Pingyang, and later developed well in the imperial court, rising step by step."
"In 531 AD, Gao Huan's cavalry attacked the Erzhu clan, which finally led to great changes in the political situation, and the children of the royal family were frightened one by one, and no one could take care of anyone, so they had to escape, and Yuan Xiu also ran to the countryside at this time and became a peasant."
"Gao Huan was in the crusade against the Zhu clan and won the victory, after which he first made Yuen Long the emperor, but later squeezed him off the throne for various reasons, and finally killed him."
"But the country can't be left without an owner for a day, after abolishing Yuen Long, Gao Huan must choose another puppet to come to the front of the stage, so as to have an explanation for the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty."
