Spoiling History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms
Chapter 725: Extraordinary People and Extraordinary Events
"How many talented people are there in China?"
In the yamen of Xuchang Mansion, Cao Cao heard the sigh of the handsome man next to Liu Bei and agreed very much.
Although I don’t know the rhythm of that Yuan song, I only need to read the Qiu Si piece twice to understand what a folk tune is.
It is neither vulgar enough to be in the trenches of the market nor elegant enough to endure the cold. Scholars write songs about the market, and talented people lament the sorrows of ordinary people.
And Na Tong Guan Guan pushed this folk tune to the category of elegance.
Cao Cao certainly knew poetry. When he just read Wen Tianxiang's Crossing the Lingding Ocean, he also marveled at his strong will and noble ambition.
As for Qin Yuanchun, written by Wang Yanwu, although he did not like its tone as much as Guangmu said, he also admitted that its wording was quite exquisite and gorgeous.
But no matter what, there are similarities between Song lyrics and Chinese poetry, but the current Yuan music is more eclectic.
The entire text of Tong Guangu contains only 44 words. Cao Cao read it silently in his mind and still felt that there was not a single word that could be changed. The conciseness of the words and the meaningfulness of the artistic conception were worthy of a generation of great writers.
However, Cao Cao was still a little bit dissatisfied with this praise from later generations:
"Rise and fall, we work together with chaos to survive, and the people suffer because of it."
"If you don't follow the same path of governance, how will the people suffer under governance?"
"If rise and fall are both painful, what difference does it make to control chaos?"
Cao Cao's eyebrows immediately stood up when he saw Zhang Fei, and then Liu Bei signaled to interrupt, causing the reckless general to huff and turn his face away.
"What does Mengde think are common people?"
This question should have been very simple, but Liu Bei asked so specifically that it made Cao Cao silent for a moment. And combined with Zhang Yanghao's life events, he also understood something:
"All the tens of millions of people are common people?"
Liu Bei nodded, but there was a bit of sadness on his face:
"In the history of later generations, both Sun, Cao and Liu passed away, and they all belonged to the Sima family."
"The Sima family has inherited the extravagant style of your descendants. Although the world has been unified, compared with us at this time, its governance can be prosperous. However, the people have suffered even more. The Sima family has not cultivated virtue, and has suffered internal and external troubles. Starting and lasting for hundreds of years.”
Cao Cao listened quietly and saw a look of relief on Liu Bei's face:
"And Meng Deding didn't know that uprisings would happen in all dynasties in later generations."
"And after thousands of years of succession, the people of later generations finally established a dynasty without an emperor."
Cao Cao looked a little confused:
"uprising?"
"It was similar to the Yellow Turbans, which later generations called peasant uprisings."
"Isn't it Ni Niluan?"
"The common people are human beings, and you are human beings too. Meng De can avenge his father and whip Xuzhou. Why can't the common people rise up when they have no way to survive?"
These words made Cao Cao become even more silent.
In his understanding, the officials and the powerful are the common people, not the common people all over the world.
And if we go by what Liu Bei said, it’s no wonder that the theory of light curtain praises everything that involves the well-being of the people.
And the Yellow Turban Rebellion became the Yellow Turban Uprising... Cao Cao had a lot of daydreams for a while.
…
In the Canopy Palace, the leisurely mood before the sightseeing curtain had disappeared. For him, there were suddenly many more things that required hard work.
At this moment, he wished that the young man had finished speaking earlier so that he could ask Sun Simiao in detail what advice he had to prevent his sister from getting into trouble.
He even wanted to spend the three months as early as possible and wait for the arrival of Zhang Zhongjing, whom Marquis Wu had mentioned, so that he could carefully consult with Biao'er to prevent injuries caused by fatigue.
There is also what the young man said about the time spent on government affairs after the prime minister was abolished.
Although he does feel that the number of government affairs is not large at all, but judging from the meaning... is he the special one?
But Tomorrow is determined not to slap himself in the face and reinstate the prime minister, so how to set up duties and decentralize power to smoothly assist his descendants is another difficult task.
Moreover, these events caused all previous speculations about the history of the Ming Dynasty to be overturned, which made him even more upset, and his comments about this light curtain were even more unkind:
"Zhang Yanghao could write good articles and take imperial examinations. He can be called the leader of the Yuan Dynasty in humanities. However, he was not favored by the Yuan court and died because of the Yuan court."
"How could those scholars forget in just a moment the rebellion of the Hu Yuan Dynasty, the death of Zhang Yanghao, the fact that there had been no imperial examinations for decades, and the fact that officials had to be treated like dogs by the Hu people when they were in power?"
"We don't want him to be a dog, let him measure his talents in the imperial examination, and display his talents in official positions. Why are you unwilling?"
This was said to be quite rude, but everyone knew that His Majesty had this temper, so everything was as usual. Empress Ma stood up and advised:
"If you want to avert a hundred years of disaster, it will take more than ten years of work?"
"If it were easy at this time, this young man wouldn't emphasize Chongba's achievements."
"After all, Emperor Hongwu was an extraordinary person, and what he accomplished was extraordinary. How could it be easy?"
These words immediately made Zhu Yuanzhang sit down obediently, and Zhu Biao looked at his mother with a look of admiration.
The only person in the world who can control his father is his mother, but it is difficult for him to imagine what the Hongwu Dynasty would be like if he lost his mother.
Because of this, Zhu Biao secretly made up his mind not to let his mother suffer.
However, he had also read Tong Guan Guan in ancient times. How could this word be so highly regarded by later generations?
[Although the crown prince of the Yuan Dynasty died, the great country still needed an heir. In the end, Kublai Khan made a generation-shift appointment, and Prince Zhenjin’s son Temu’er was promoted to be the heir to the Yuan Dynasty.
Later, Zhu Yuanzhang did the same thing after Zhu Biao died. The two founding monarchs had the same logic in this regard.
Zhu Yuanzhang valued Han etiquette and laws. Kublai Khan spent his whole life trying to promote sinicization and also valued Han etiquette and laws. The eldest son inheritance system was indeed the most consistent with Han etiquette and laws.
The good news for Kublai Khan was that he was luckier than Zhu Yuanzhang, but the bad news was that he was not much luckier.
After Kublai Khan died, Temur ascended the throne smoothly. He was Emperor Chengzong of Yuan Dynasty. His days as emperor were a bit like those of Zhao Guangyi. In short, the family background left by the previous emperor was too rich, so he could basically do whatever he wanted.
When Emperor Chengzong of Yuan Dynasty was in power, he would give generous rewards whenever he was happy, and this happiness did not even need a reason. For example, he gave his three sons-in-law 120,000 silver coins without any reason as soon as he ascended the throne.
There were countless similar things during the reign of Emperor Chengzong of Yuan. The family fortune accumulated by Kublai during the Kaiyuan period was squandered by this great grandson in just ten years. According to the history of Yuan Dynasty, the daily festival rewards during the reign of Emperor Chengzong of Yuan were several times more than those during the reign of Kublai.
Later generations speculated that the reason why Emperor Chengzong of Yuan spent so much money was more because he was in poor health and lacked majesty, so he could only win people's hearts with money. In addition, he asked his concubines for help when he was undecided about domestic affairs and asked ministers for help when he was undecided about foreign affairs. When the money left by Kublai was spent, Emperor Chengzong of Yuan simply kicked his legs and died.
Because Kublai promoted Han law, his children and grandchildren at that time had all read Han history, including Emperor Chengzong of Yuan's wife Buluhan.
For this queen, her husband was seriously ill, she was in charge of all state affairs, the crown prince had not been established, and the territory was vast.
