Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 4 Chapter 2544: Changing dynasties and fulfilling the aspirations

Liu Yu said without hesitation: "I don't want to. This is not in line with my philosophy. What I want is a world where no one bullies others, no matter how high the family is, or the Beijing eight brothers, they have not bullied others and ruined their lives. We have suffered so much bullying in Jingkou when we were young, and we know how it feels. Are we working hard just for ourselves and our offspring to bully others in the same way? Envy, you are also a learned man, that Confucian sage, The metaphysical masters emphasized, is this a system that allows bullying and enslaving people?"

Xu Xianzhi sighed: "Either Confucianism or metaphysics emphasizes hierarchical order and requires everyone to have their own place. Loyalty and filial piety are the most basic principles for maintaining social relations. What really emphasizes the equality of all beings is the outside Buddhism. , You can’t change everyone’s consciousness so that they can ignore themselves and their family, but work hard for others."

Liu Yuzheng said: "I didn't say that it would not benefit the high-ranking ones, but that they would not be allowed to enslav others from generation to generation by relying on the fields for generations as before. After playing like this for a long time, it will not do them any good. Look at the family. What kind of children’s abilities have degraded into? We used to have our Jingkou brothers defend our home and country, who will we rely on in the future? Any system, if it is not easy forever, it will definitely become corrupt."

   Xu Xianzhi nodded: "You want people to take the initiative to subdue your title. Your ruling status is not enough, unless..."

   Having said that, he closed his mouth and looked at Liu Yu motionlessly.

Liu Yu frowned: "Why, Xianzhi, you want to persuade me like Yin Zhongwen? Are you crazy? Even if I allow you to say anything, this kind of rebellious remarks cannot be said. of."

Xu Xianzhi said coldly: "Didn't you ask me what to do? That's the only way. You don't want to cooperate with the family and compromise, then you can only overwhelm them. Shang Yang's reform was successful because of the support of King Qin. You This reform of Shang Yang is even more powerful than Shang Yang’s reform, because in addition to aristocratic families, even the emperor of the Sima clan has to be solved together. Then you can only become the emperor, create a new dynasty, and rely on the authority of the founding emperor. In the form of an ancestral system, these laws and regulations are set down. In this way, the government will not die!"

try{mad1('gad2');}catch(ex){}   Liu Yu didn’t reply, he began to pace back and forth, thinking about Xu Xianzhi’s words, Xu Xianzhi smiled slightly: "Of course, if you think my words are inconsistent, you can I have been arrested now, and I have no opinion on the maiden voyage like Yin Zhongwen. As your friend for many years, brother, I was mentally prepared before I said this, although I died without regret."

   Liu Yu stopped and turned his head to look at Xu Xianzhi: "Is there no way to let the Sima emperor be a puppet all the time? Is it my way?"

Xu Xianzhi shook his head: "You can't expect that the emperors of the Sima clan will be the same as Sima Dezong. You don't know whether it is warm or cold, and you are at your mercy. You can't expect every emperor of the Sima clan to have a Wang Miaoyin to take care of you. Look at Sima Yao. People like him are thinking of various ways to seize power from Xie An, not to mention you who have no foundation. If you want to stick to your own ideals, you can only take this path. However, in Before that, you still need to build enough merits to suppress the high family of the family and your Beifu brothers, so that the entire Great Jin Dynasty will only know you. In this way, you can take this step when you succeed in the Northern Expedition and regain lost ground. !"

Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "Why do I have to make myself an emperor? Why do I have to have an emperor's position to control the world's life and death? While I say that all beings are equal, I want to make myself an emperor. Then I am not the most hypocritical in the world. people?"

Xu Xianzhi smiled slightly: "It has to be so. If you are not an emperor, you cannot have supreme power. If you don't create a new dynasty, there will be no new dragons to replace the previous high family. You let everyone It’s unrealistic to not be able to attack the Jue, but if the new powers such as the Beijing Eight Brothers are allowed to replace the great families of the Da Jin, it is natural, because once the emperor and the courtiers, as for the newly-founded family, the foundation is not deep. It will be much easier for you to add yours to them."

   Liu Yu said solemnly: "In this way, wouldn't the old family leaders resist? Would they just sit back and wait for death?"

Xu Xianzhi shook his head: "Send slaves, you have to know that, in fact, the title of Dajin has to be decreed from generation to generation in de jure, but with the exception of the founding knights, the kings and the Xie families have been able to inherit the titles. It's because the title of their family is the founding title, including your current Yuzhang County Lord, Shiyi Wanhu, and also the founding title, which can be passed on from generation to generation without descending. The same is true for the Ankang County Lord of Xie'an!"

try{mad1('gad2');}catch(ex){}   Liu Yu sighed: "So, what you mean is, when the dynasty is changed, the founding prince of the Jin Dynasty will become a generational prince, not hereditary. Now The high-ranking family of China will be downgraded to a higher rank, and then starting from the next generation, each generation will be downgraded. In this way, they will be slowly eliminated without being deprived of them all at once, causing fierce resistance?

Xu Xianzhi smiled slightly: "Yes, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com, you can use the Northern Expedition to make the eight brothers or children of aristocratic families who made contributions to their careers also become the founding heroes, and attack the founding lords, even the current elites of the family. For example, if the Xie family has a good relationship with you and supports you to establish a new dynasty, you can also give them a national title. In order to protect their title, the family will rush to embrace you and persuade you to enter. This is from Cao Wei Dai Han, Sima Jin and Wei, have been staged many times."

   Liu Yuchang sighed, "Are you trying to be the first to persuade you to write a letter?"

Xu Xianzhi said indifferently: "If you really want to be independent, I'm afraid Fatty will be one step faster than me, and I don't want to fight with him on this point. It's just that Fatty won't express your opinion easily when your intention is not obvious. The difference between me and him. Since he was a child, he has been obedient to you in everything, according to your wishes, and I can't do that."

Liu Yu shook his head: "This is true. Although the fat man would argue with me, he would give in to me on fundamental issues. Unlike you, who would be so outspoken in front of me, envious, I am very grateful. What you said to me today, but I also want to know, what are your thoughts and what do you want?"

Xu Xianyi looked at Liu Yu motionlessly: "In fact, my idea has always been very simple. I hope that the world is stable and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. The order created by aristocrats for hundreds of years can achieve this. But now you You have your own ideals. You want the Northern Expedition to regain the Central Plains and dominate the world. Since I can’t stop you, I can only find a way to achieve your ideals while minimizing the loss of the people. Of course, it also saves me. The interests of the family can be maximized. Are you satisfied with this answer?"
