Chapter 42 Emperors: Unprecedented prosperity? ! !
It's not that Li Shimin insists on one point, but mainly because of the "recuperation" policy, which is almost a "standard configuration" in every prosperous age.

Or the cornerstone.

For this reason for being on the list, it is worthy of praise.

What's more, what kind of "monarch system" was established, but there is no problem with this system now.

But over time, first, the flood of titles will inevitably cause the success award to lose its original function.

And precisely because of this system, big landlords, big merchants, and nobles will gradually form, forming a powerful family that is above the common people.

This system is fashionable for a while, but it will be a disaster for a long time!
Being on the list is not because there was no major disaster during the Wenjing period, but what about after that?
The reason why the emperors are emperors is that apart from those stupid and senseless emperors, the minds of other emperors are detached from ordinary people. Their thoughts are so far-reaching that they can discover the pros and cons in an instant.

This kind of system with slightly more advantages than disadvantages can also be included in the list. Naturally, some emperors are not convinced.

……

At this time, other reasons gradually played out all at once.

[Fourth reason for entering the list: Stable the frontier! 】

[When Emperor Wen came to the throne, not only the internal affairs were complicated and difficult, but also the border affairs were very serious. When the national power was not strong, it could be called "Hu Qiang Nan Jin"! 】

[In the third year of the Yuan Dynasty, King Youxian of the Xiongnu broke his peace agreement and led an army of tens of thousands to invade Henan (now the area of ​​Mengnei Kezhao League)!And attacked Shangjun (now the West Suide area)! 】

[Burn, kill and loot, kill and loot the Han people, threaten Chang'an! 】

【Crime cannot be punished! 】

[The big man couldn't bear it, he didn't back down, and sent [-] troops to attack the Xiongnu! 】

[The Huns fled, although the two sides did not fight. 】

[But this time, it was also the first large-scale military operation in the Western Han Dynasty since the siege of Bai Deng, which showed that the Western Han Dynasty was actually not willing to make peace with the policy. 】

[And in the 14th year of the Yuan Dynasty, the Xiongnu Shanyu personally led an army of 14 and invaded Han again! 】

[Emperor Hanwen is also not cowardly!You must also personally lead the army to attack, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty tried their best to dissuade them! 】

[Emperor Hanwen refused to listen and insisted on conscripting himself.If it hadn't been for the timely dissuasion by Queen Mother Huang at this time, this dangerous move would have been calmed down. 】

【Even though Emperor Wen did not go to war in person, the Han army still went out to fight against the Xiongnu. After a hard battle for more than a month, they finally beat the Xiongnu away. 】

[However, the Han army returned immediately after leaving the fortress, and did not pursue and kill them. 】

[The reason is that if the fish died and the net was broken at that time, the people of the Han Dynasty and the Manchu Dynasty had just recuperated, and the economy had not fully recovered, and they could not bear the years of war! 】

[And it is not only subject to national strength, but also specific material foundations such as horses and weapons. 】

[The number of losses is too great! 】

[Once it fails, the Han Dynasty will perish for several generations! 】

[And the vicious development of the power of the Han princes at that time can be said to be internal and external troubles! 】

[At this time, the troops are rashly dispatched, and the capital city may be looted by other princes before the troops are dispatched! 】

【"Whoever offends my strong man will be punished no matter how far away he is!"】

[Emperor Wen Jing wanted to say such soul-stirring words, but in order to avoid further burdening the common people, they could only choose to be patient! 】

[Put hope on future generations! 】

[For this reason, they are more conscientious and diligent in governing the world now!When trying to avenge future emperors, there are horses to ride, soldiers to use, food to eat, and confidence to avenge the Huns! 】

[Now I am swallowing my breath and trying my best, only to kill those Xiongnu thieves for future generations! 】

【Thus, the Western Han Dynasty had no trouble, but had to send envoys to restore the relationship with the Xiongnu. 】

……

At the mention of this, Emperor Wen of Han clenched his fists!
It was equivalent to the agony that came to my heart again!

You know, killing people's enemies, massacring his people, how can an emperor bear it?
And three or four times?

However, due to various conditions at the time and the overall situation of the environment, he could not send troops!
I can only face my former enemy with a smile again!

This feeling is as if someone killed your parents and killed your children.

But when you face such a murderer again, you can't make a move, you have to sit cross-legged with him with a smile on your face, and face him with a smile. What's even more helpless and annoying is that you have to send your girl, the woman in the family, to The murderer's family gets married!

How could any man with a bit of backbone endure such humiliation?
No, this is not just a humiliation, but a great shame!
How could the two emperors, Emperor Han Wen and Emperor Han Jing, endure it so easily! ! !
Both emperors had blue veins on their foreheads.

Emperor Han Jing: "Hate!!! If I had sent troops rashly at that time, as the inventory said, the capital would have been occupied by other princes! At that time, the world will be in chaos, the great Han will perish, and the common people will perish!"

"The people of the world will suffer from the war again! This prosperous scene will soon appear in troubled times again, and the people will be destitute and displaced again!"

"Huns, every time I dream, I want to kill those cubs with my own hands!!!"

And when the other emperors saw this, there was no one to say anything, let alone criticize.

Instead, they all took a deep breath.

The hatred of foreign thieves has also been experienced in other dynasties!Therefore, they also understood and understood the situation at that time.

How could it be possible to blame these two emperors again?
It is also angry from the heart!I feel aggrieved!

But Li Shimin snorted coldly: "It turns out that the rule of Wen Jing is just a prosperous age of Wen Jing, and he dare not even fight."

"It doesn't look like I won the world right away."

"It's a good thing in this prosperous age. I don't even have a 'horse', so I can rank fourth."

"I really laughed."

Emperor Han Jing was instantly angry: "Who do you say doesn't have a 'horse'?!"

Li Shimin: "I'm talking about you guys!"

But at the time of discussion, let's continue to take stock of the reasons for being on the list!

……

[Five reasons for being on the list: Maintain unity! 】

[At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the power of the princes and kings developed viciously, and the princes became powerful, forming a trend that could not be lost, threatening the development of the imperial power, and the contradictions became more and more intensified with the accession of Emperor Hanwen! 】

[Only three years later, princes and kings raised the flag of rebellion! 】

[And go on and on! 】

[However, because Emperor Hanwen was focusing on stabilizing the political situation and restoring the social economy, the situation did not allow him to openly confront the princes and kings, but he also took the opportunity to divide Qi, the largest of them, into six! 】

[The Huainan country is divided into three. 】

[After Han Jingdi came to the throne, the Seven Kingdoms took the opportunity to rebel! 】

[So he sent more than 40 generals to attack other countries. 】

[The rebel army was finally defeated, and it only took three months to completely put down the scourge! 】

……

Zulong: "What? Destroy the Seven Kingdoms in three months?"

"Compared with this, it didn't take me only three months to sweep the six kingdoms!"

Emperor Han Jing looked at it and quickly explained: "No, it's the Wu Chu rebels who used it for three months and it's over."

"Places like Qidi and Jiaoxi can't go down for three months, and the nasty King Zhao even invited the Huns to join forces to attack the Han!"

"what!!!!!"

The emperor of the world was shocked!

There are still people who take the initiative to cooperate with the enemy and treason!

Isn't this a spy, a spy, and a sinner through the ages? !

At this moment, the emperors and other virtuous ministers couldn't bear it anymore.

Zu Long: "Forget about the civil strife among the princes, but there are still people who take the initiative to join the enemy!"

Liu Bang: "Which unworthy descendant is it?! I will find him and kill him!"

Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty Liu Ying: "Why do you fight and kill? Aren't you a family? If there is any problem, can't we solve it together? Why do you want to unite with the enemies outside?!"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "Not only collaborating with the enemy and treason, but also forgetting the ancestors!"

"At the beginning, the Xiongnu surrounded our emperor's great-grandfather in Baideng, and he almost couldn't come back. The marriage was just a temporary tolerance, but he took the initiative to hook up with the Xiongnu in private. Isn't this leading the wolf into the house?!"

At this moment, not to mention the righteous indignation of the Han emperors, the other emperors couldn't bear it either!

Li Shimin: "Hehe, the princes colluded with the enemy and treasoned the country, this dynasty is actually not very good!"

Li Zhi: "None of these reasons for being on the list is convincing!"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't speak at the moment, but he noticed one thing in particular.

That is, this is the first prosperous age.

And it was also mentioned in the inventory that this prosperous age was for the sake of forbearance. In this case, how could those famous historical achievements not be on the list during the Hanwu prosperous age during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty?

How could he not be worthy of being on the list for his feat of beating a foreign thief to kneel down and recognize his father?

Li Shimin must know it too, but in his eyes, don't these things deserve it?

The other later emperors almost all expected it, so they waited to see Li Shimin's reaction!
……

The reason why Wen Jing Zhizhi entered the list seems to be coming to an end.

【Reason [-]: Practicing frugality】

[Emperor Han Wen advocated frugality. During his reign, the palaces, gardens, and vehicles and uniforms did not increase. 】

[He once wanted to build a terrace, but when he heard that it would cost a hundred gold, he voluntarily gave up the idea. 】

【Emperor Wen once said: "One hundred gold is equivalent to the sum of the properties of ten middle-class families. I often feel ashamed to inherit the late emperor's palace. How can I spend another hundred gold to build a terrace?"]

【So I just gave up. 】

[And in order to reduce the tax burden of the people, he also reduced his own expenses and reduced the number of guards. 】

[During the period of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, an edict was issued not to accept luxury goods such as brocade contributed by the localities, and local officials were prohibited from buying gold, pearls and jade, otherwise they would be charged with theft! 】

……

Seeing this, Qianlong was a little confused!
He only knew that the two emperors were frugal, but he never thought that they would be so frugal!

These two emperors were not very famous in the Han Dynasty, but those who did not read some history books seriously, but only knew a general history, hardly knew that these two emperors had such frugal stories!

Qianlong: "It's just a balcony, how much is a hundred gold? So give up?"

"I am an emperor, if I don't enjoy it, what kind of emperor should I be!"

It is also true that the two emperors in Wenjing's rule can be said to have formed a sharp contrast with Qianlong!

Qianlong's six voyages to the south of the Yangtze River cost a huge amount!The common people complained and were searched arbitrarily, just like robbers!

However, during the reign of Wenjing, common people and officials were not allowed to buy gold, pearls and jade, otherwise it would be theft!

This is really human-to-human, maddening!
At this moment, the common people in the Qianlong period, seeing this grand occasion, is like reading a heavenly book!
Few ordinary people have read books, so naturally not many people know about the historical classics during the Wenjingzhi period. Even if the inventory screens appeared, they still looked at the Arabian Nights and couldn't believe it!

"is that true?"

"During that period, the emperor actually cared about the common people so much?!"

"God, I'm about to cry!"

"I seem to be living in the reign of Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing!"

"Immortal Lin, please send us to the time of Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing!"

"Lin Xianren, please!"

Seeing this, Qianlong was stunned!
A series of white petition bullet screens swept across the entire screen in an instant!
Almost all of them are the voices of ordinary people.

It’s okay because everyone doesn’t know, but now once you know that there is such an enlightened prosperous age in history, and it is the first prosperous age in the emperor’s era, you will be envious to death!
And only the barrage of petitions from the common people?
We must know how many officials, common people, and literati who were plagued by literary inquisition during the Qianlong period, they also wanted to escape this era of cannibalism!

What Qianlong prosperous age is simply bullshit!
"Take me one!"

"I want to leave too!!!"

And the ministers dare not speak, after all, the emperors are still watching, so to speak so directly, isn't it equivalent to being known by Qianlong that they are going to betray?

So they didn't dare to speak, but in their hearts, they had already flown to the rule of Wenjing they yearned for!
This is only a period of Qianlong.

As for other planes of ten thousand realms, it can be said that the common people are ready to move!

Farming can also have a title!You can even meet an official without paying homage!

The boy has gold under his knees!
In this life, I only kneel to the sky, kneel to the ground, and kneel to my parents!
However, these ordinary people, when they see the emperor, they must kneel, when they see the ministers, they must kneel, and even an official who is not a ninth-rank official who is as big as a sesame seed, has to kneel and call the master.

Who is born, born to like to be a slave? !

Naturally like to kneel on the ground and call others master? !
But if you have a title, to a certain extent, you don't have to kneel when you meet an official!

Even if the title goes higher, the power is even greater, and the official has to kneel down to Lao Tzu!

How dare you imagine this at any other time!
Forget about the later life, the key is the previous life!
It's something that actually happened in history.

So right now, there are more voices of petitions from people in other dynasties!

This is the influence of the prosperous age of the Fourth Dynasty. It can be said that this prosperous age has been counted, and this prosperous age has become the longing for everyone!

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is Bai Yueguang!
【General Comment】

[Under the rule of the two emperors, Wen and Jing, who "repented and practiced frugality", the entire Han Dynasty presented a prosperous scene of "the people are the people who provide for the family, and everyone is full of contempt and wealth". 】

[Do not easily mobilize troops and try to maintain a peaceful relationship. This approach also served a certain purpose of "controlling the Hu" and played a role in developing the border. It was the first of its kind in the Han Dynasty! 】

[Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty also attracted people to be kind, which made the rule of Wenjing come true.After decades of hard work by the working people, the society and the country were relatively prosperous in the last years of Emperor Jing and the early years of Emperor Wu! 】

[The rule of Wenjing, under the unified royal power of the Han Dynasty, complied with historical development, adopted policies corresponding to the times, met the needs of social development at that time, and promoted political progress and economic progress. Prosperity! 】

Emperors: "Empty... unprecedented prosperity?!!!"

The emperors of the Tang Dynasty were completely dumbfounded!

"Compared to our Datang, this evaluation is really high!!!"

"Wait, this is the first prosperous age of the big man, is the evaluation so high?"

"Then the prosperous Han Dynasty in the future..."

In an instant, the hearts of the emperors of the Tang Dynasty seemed to enter the cold weather in an instant, and suddenly became cold!
