Wei and Jin cooks

Zhao Hu: "What about the future?"

"If the country is strong, if they can enjoy the same treatment as the Jin people and live a good life, how can they rebel?" Zhao Hanzhang said: "Seventh Uncle, don't always make bad assumptions about them."

Zhao Hu looked at her in surprise, unable to believe that she could be so innocent, but seeing her serious face, she seemed to really think so, and couldn't help but widen her eyes: "Are you serious?"

Zhao Hanzhang frowned and said seriously: "This is what I am thinking."

Zhao Hu had nothing to say, turned around and left with the boy.

After Zhao Hu left, Zhao Hanzhang looked at Ji Yuan and Ming Yu with a soothing expression.

Ming Yu said expressionlessly: "I don't agree with Zhao Hu's statement, but the customs and lives of the Hu people are too different from ours, so they are aliens. Since we are aliens, it is difficult to be of the same mind."

Zhao Hanzhang nodded and said: "So we must educate the country to treat them as its own people, and they will treat themselves as the country's people. Even if there is a rebellion in the future, it will be the people against the imperial court, not the Hu people against the Han people."

Ming Yu was slightly surprised and scolded: "Why did the general say such unlucky words?"

Zhao Hanzhang couldn't help but smile, "Although I want the world to enjoy peace for eternity and the country I have built can be passed down to eternity, I know that this is impossible."

Ji Yuan couldn't help but frown, "Why is the general so pessimistic? Although the Han Dynasty is only more than four hundred years old, the Zhou Dynasty is nearly eight hundred years old. With the merits of the girl, it is not a problem to continue for a thousand years."

She thanked the two for their trust and praise in her. Looking back at history, they saw that there were only Xia, Shang, Zhou, Qin and Han, oh, and Wei, which was not very representative, and the Jin they were in now, a truly unified dynasty. There were only two dynasties in the Qin and Han dynasties, so I think it is normal for a dynasty to be inherited for more than five or six hundred years.

But she has seen a longer history, and she knows that dynasty changes are inevitable and the future is full of unknowns.

Because the Han Dynasty was shorter than the Zhou Dynasty, some people have proposed to abolish the county system and restore the feudal system. They believe that Zhou's longevity is due to the feudal system.

The little emperor has become more and more tired of studying this year. He is under a lot of pressure. He only behaves well when Zhao Hanzhang is around. The rest of the time, he behaves as well as he can.

The promoted officials who originally placed their hopes on him were disappointed and confused, but Zhao Hanzhang's people were more inclined to push her forward.

At this time, there was a quiet discussion about the future national system.

Many people circled around Zhao Hanzhang, secretly saying that if the dynasty wanted to last for a long time, it would be best to enfeoff a few more kings. If someone rebels in the future, as long as the kings from various places are there, the world will not change hands.

Zhao Hanzhang simply asked them directly, "Is it the same as the Eight Kings Rebellion that just passed?"

Their faces immediately turned pale.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "So the reason why we have been fighting wars and quelling chaos is to give our country our own surname, rather than to prevent the people of the world from suffering from war?"

"Why do I never forget Jiangnan? It's because the people of the five directions share the world and are all brothers within the four seas. If we want the world to be truly stable, we must unify," Zhao Hanzhang said: "Only through unification can the country and localities be prosperous, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. .”

"The world is so vast, so we cannot be the only Han people. The Xiongnu, Jie, Di, Xianbei, and the Baiyue in the south, as long as they are accepted by me, they will be our brothers," Zhao Hanzhang sighed: "The hearts of the vast majority of people are red and hot. As long as the country treats them equally and protects them, they will love the country like their parents."

"Yes, what the Seventh Uncle said is true, but the differences between people are not differences in race, but differences in people's hearts. There will always be a few people in this world who are not well-educated and put their own interests first, so they do something rebellious. But is this limited to Hu people?" Zhao Hanzhang asked rhetorically.

Ji Yuan and Ming Yu thought for a moment, then leaned forward and said, "We are short-sighted."

Zhao Hanzhang waved his hand: "I understand your worries. Their living customs are different from the Han people, their writing is different, and their language is different, so you will be worried and scared. But there are more of us than them, so how do we know that they are not worried and scared?"

Ji Yuan put himself in his shoes and immediately said, "They must be more worried and scared than us."

Zhao Hanzhang nodded: "So we have to calm their hearts and eliminate their fears. Half of the disputes in this world are caused by interests and half are caused by fear. Get rid of fear, and then align the interests of their race with the interests of the country. direction, the problem will be solved."

Ji Yuan thought for a while and then said: "The girl wants to use them as officials, to induce them to read Chinese, speak Chinese, and take the literary and martial arts examinations?"

"Yes," Zhao Hanzhang nodded: "King Langya struggled after he went south. I heard that when he first went south, he met the heads of the southern aristocratic families on the street. They all turned their heads and pretended not to see him, without even saying hello."

"Langya fiefdom is in Xuzhou, which is the closest area to Jiangnan and Jiangdong areas. It is only separated by a river. Why do the powerful families in Jiangnan hate the forces going south so much?"

Ming Yu sneered: "Of course it's because a large number of northern nobles entered the south, but they were not controlled by them. In turn, they wanted to compete for their living space. Naturally, they hate it when there is a struggle for interests."

Zhao Hanzhang nodded, "That's exactly the case, and the deeper contradictions stem from the previous disputes among the three countries."

It has only been thirty-one years since the demise of the Wu Kingdom during the Three Kingdoms period. The generation that experienced the battle between Wu and Jin is still alive. They are not convinced by Jin at all, and the nine-level Zhongzheng system has even isolated the noble families in the south.

If you look around the previous court halls, how many officials from the south can you find?

But now, in the court controlled by Zhao Hanzhang, officials belonging to the south can be counted on their hands.

"They have no say in national politics and have no sense of belonging to Jin. People on the north bank of the Yangtze River are crazy. They just watch from the other side and have no feeling of national subjugation. This is because they have never identified with Jin from the bottom of their hearts." Zhao Hanzhang Sighing, "This is one and two. Although they are only separated by a river, their living customs are completely different. It is difficult for both parties to identify with each other. At the dinner table, should we eat rice or steamed buns? Should we use yellow rice to make porridge or noodle soup?" "

"People from the North Bank have already entered the life of the South Bank, but they want to change their customs, thinking that their customs are barbarians. Such interactions are naturally full of contradictions." Zhao Hanzhang shook his head and said: "Fortunately, Director Wang has a tolerant temperament. He is also gentle and willing to mediate, otherwise, King Langya and others would not be able to survive in the south without us taking action."

"Director Wang treats the Southerners who are all Han Chinese, so why should we force the minority groups whose languages ​​and characters are different to be exactly the same as ours?" Zhao Hanzhang said: "It is not easy to adapt to the customs of cultivating one's religion, and it is not easy to adapt to the appropriateness of one's administration. This is That is the way to govern them."

Ji Yuan and Ming Yu looked at each other and knew how to deal with the Xiongnu, Jie and other ethnic minorities. They stood up and agreed in unison.
