In order to live forever, I turned martial arts into a fairy

Chapter 116 Wang Mang’s reform, supported by all the people, pointed out by thousands of people!!

In the war at the end of the Qin Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu of Han gained the world by virtue of his conquest; And the Han dynasty fell, and Wang Mang won the world with his great prestige and power, with the Han Emperor Zen concession!

Although the two approaches are different, they both have the same path: that is, to change the dynasty.

On the contrary, Wang Mang’s Zen has been emulated by later generations. For example, Cao Pi took over the dynasty from Emperor Xian, and Yang Jian took the throne from Lord Zhou!

In a decent way, sent away the former dynasty, justifiably ruled Shenzhou.

But no one born in the last days of the Western Han Dynasty could not feel how different Wang Mang’s journey was. That is not a courtier’s counterattack, a very powerful courtier’s way to the top!

But the transformation path of an ordinary person to launch an assault on imperial power!

Wang Mang’s reign of Han Lixin caused countless people in various eras to fall into a deep shock and unable to extricate themselves.

Even if the emperors of the Western Han Dynasty were unwilling, they had to swallow it, because Wang Mang was really supported by all the people and returned to the general trend.

Liu Bang gritted his teeth and said, “So, Xinmang is established!” So how should Wang Mang deal with the growing problems? ”

Emperor Wen Liu Heng said in a condensed voice: “The new dynasty was born out of the Han dynasty, and the problem continued to the new dynasty. If you don’t make changes, sooner or later you will follow in your footsteps! ”

The establishment of the new dynasty was of course the defeat of the Western Han Dynasty and the trend of the times. But everyone in the world hopes that Wang Mang, who can stand on his own behalf of Han, can make changes and find countermeasures.

After all, Wang Mang is the reincarnation of the Duke of Zhou, a virtuous saint who governs the country and the world!

[Wang Mang’s life, can be divided into two parts, usurp the Han and reform! ]

For most of the first half of his life, he struggled on the road of usurping Han self-reliance

In the next ten years, it was the reform of the new dynasty after he ascended the throne

If it is said that stealing power, usurping the throne, and crossing the red line that the ruler cannot tolerate, Wang Mang has already marked Wang Mang indelible.

Then its restructuring has plunged it into a place that has never been recovered for thousands of years. Scolding is everywhere, sinners through the ages!

At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, along with the faintness and decline of several generations of Han emperors, one problem after another had emerged, and finally reached a situation where it was difficult to return.

The most serious of these is the problem of land acquisition, what was the situation at that time?

Annexation, greed, the strong rule the fields of thousands, the weak once had no place to stand

The powerful Zhumen wine smells of flesh, and the road has frozen bones!

The princes and ministers of the Western Han Dynasty were not unaware, in fact, they knew in their hearts that there was an endless stream of people from Shangshu. They want to find a solution, they want to solve the problem!

However, the problem is simply too difficult.

It was not without land annexation, and in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, during the Wudi period, this phenomenon was already very common!

But by the end of the Western Han Dynasty, a huge population of 60 million and terrifying contradictions between people and land were placed in front of the imperial monarchs for the first time in history.

The first time they faced this mountain of pressure, they were the first, without experience to follow, to watch the merger continue to spread, go deep into the roots, hollow out the foundation of the Han Dynasty, but could not do anything.

Dong Zhongshu and Shi Dan during the reign of Emperor Han both proposed the method of “limiting fields”, but they were unable to implement it due to pressure from all sides, and failed.

People in the world are not fools, when they see the Han Emperor hiding in the harem for pleasure and doing nothing, they know that the Han Dynasty is over!

Duke An Han, Wang Mang ascended the throne, naturally there is also this reason!

All the people embraced, hoping that the new lord of the rivers and mountains could change the status quo and restore the prosperous scene.

And Wang Mang did the same, in the imperial court extravagant, local looting and exploitation!!

The people are displaced, their lives are miserable, and people’s hearts are floating!

On the second day of his accession to the throne, he promulgated a divine decree and announced reforms! History said, Wang Mang reformed! 】

Famous ministers and emperors of various eras, seeing this scene, each fell into deep thought.

Yes, land annexation can never solve the problem.

The end of the Western Han Dynasty was the first time when this severe test was officially faced. However, they could not solve it, and the result was the collapse of the Han Dynasty!

Zulong frowned: “Land annexation…”

This situation is not absent in Daqin, but it is not outstanding. Why? The laws of Daqin were very strict, and coupled with the considerable development of ownerless wasteland, the annexation of people and land was reduced to a certain scope and did not rise to a problem.

“Is it really that hard to solve?”

The Great Qin Qunchen looked at each other, each with their own opinion, but did not discuss the reason.

“So, my big man died under land annexation!?”

Liu Che recovered his mind and asked heavily. It is difficult to return, did the foreign relatives and eunuchs have it? It’s just that in the last years, there is no room for maneuver.

Problems and ills cost the life of the Western Han Dynasty!

“By the way, is the average field system feasible?”

While thinking, Liu Che’s eyes lit up, and he thought of the average field system in the Northern Wei reform, which was implemented in response to this situation.

Qunchen was also pleasantly surprised, and was worried about the annexation of land, and suddenly came up with a solution.

“Shhhhh Northern Wei continued until the Sui and Tang dynasties! ”

“Maybe it works!”

However, they did not know the conditions for the implementation of the Juntian system, and after the wars of the late Han Dynasty, the division of the Three Kingdoms, and the chaos of the Five Huhua, the population of Shenzhou had long since dropped to a low point.

A large amount of land was abandoned, and there was not enough population to cultivate, and finally the land was returned to the jurisdiction of the imperial court.

For the North and South Dynasties, land is not the problem, population is the problem. Emperor Xiao Daocheng of Qi Wu had great-grandchildren at the age of thirty-five, and Emperor Xiaowen Yuanhong had a son at the age of eleven, which shows how urgent it was for people at that time.

The average field system lasted for hundreds of years, but when the population of Shengtang was 80 million, it still collapsed, and Shengtang turned from prosperity to decline!

No dynasty dares to say that it can effectively solve the problem of land annexation, because there is no solution!

“Wang Mang reformed, how should he change it?”

“Facts have proved that the retro tendency of Confucianism, simply allowing Confucian ministers to govern the country, is such a tragedy.”

“Wang Mang personally practiced how the Confucian idealism that has been rising since the Qin and Han dynasties is a waste!”

“The ideal is excessive, but the effect is extremely poor!”

Compared with the Qin and Han dynasties, later generations generally know the success or failure of Wang Mang’s reform.

Completely defeated, a mess! Unlike Wang Anshi, Zhang Juzheng’s reform was intentional but could not continue.

Wang Mang was completely executed, but the final result was the death of the country!

It’s really impermanent. Who would have thought that a newly established dynasty would come to an end after just over ten years of life?

Wang Mang, the founding son of heaven and the king of the country, this is the only one, there is no semicolon!

[Wang Mang’s reform began, how to change is a problem! ] But Wang Mang believes that this is not a problem.

Because, isn’t there a “rule of three generations” in front of them that can be emulated? Xia Shang Zhou, the era of etiquette advocated by Kong Sage, can achieve the ideal realm of political harmony and harmony!

Wang Mang adhered to Confucianism, and a group of simple scholars, began retro reforms, imitating the system of the Zhou Dynasty and began to implement the New Deal!

As soon as he ascended the throne, Wang Mang ordered: Rename Tianxia Tian Wang Tian, restore the well field system in the name of Wang Tian system, and Wang Tian must not buy and sell!

There is no doubt that Wang Mang knows where the core of reform lies, pointing to the contradiction, land annexation!

Land acquisition comes from the rational sale and purchase of land, so if the sale is cut off, will it not be done once and for all? Wang Mang and others have beautiful ideas, but the reality is very backbone.

Of course, the royal field system can reduce land annexation, but in the year of famine, the only way for the people to survive is to sell their land, hide under the powerful landlords, and become tenant farmers; Plus this policy has no specific implementation plan at all, and the content adds up to not even a hundred words!

Therefore, the Wang Tian system not only failed to prevent land annexation, but further catalyzed this problem, resulting in widespread displacement and boiling people’s grievances!

Wang Mang also reformed the currency system, which really made him lose the hearts of the people. No matter how high-sounding, once the currency system is reformed, it is undoubtedly ordinary people who are injured. What’s more, Wang Mang changed it more than once, he rectified it four times.

The people’s property was looted and impoverished!

In addition, the frontier was not pacified, and the four Yi rebelled. Wang Mang, as the only three emperors in history who liked to change his name, did not only cause trouble in the title like Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi and Wu Zetian, but really caused a border war.

Shenzhou has Beihai County, Nanhai County, and Donghai County, and Wang Mang coerced the Qiang people to surrender a territory and set up “Xihai County” in order to make up enough “Four Seas”, resulting in a rebellion by the Qiang people.

The small country of Goguryeo in eastern Liaoning, Wang Mang looked at it unfavorably, and changed it to “Xiaguryeo”, causing Goguryeo to stop paying tribute and rebel!

For the Xiongnu, Wang Mang revoked his status as the king of the Xiongnu and changed the Xiongnu Shan Yu to “submit to the slaves”, which led to another dispute on the Han-Hungarian border, which had been calm for decades since the Western Han Dynasty!

The era of the four Yi subordinates is gone, and all ethnic groups refuse to submit to the new dynasty!

Wang Mang was furious, was this hitting him in the face? He started disputes lightly, used force, hundreds of thousands of troops were trapped in the frontier for a long time, wars were endless, and countless money and food were spent!

Several years of reform have not solved the problem, but have further exacerbated it.

Man-made disasters combined with natural disasters have made the land barren and the price of goods expensive, and the price of rice has risen from tens of dollars per stone under Emperor Wen of Han to 2,000 yuan!

The miserable situation of people dying in the wild, and cannibalism is common in the world!

The people of the world realized that this Wang Mang was a pit! Grievances, resentments, resentments, quickly came together.

Wang Mang has gone from being supported by ten thousand people to being pointed out by thousands of people!

Countless people who could not survive took risks and rose up! In the last years of Xinmang, the anger of the uprising was raging! 】
