Chapter 167 Civilization has always been out of reach

Since Dong Zhongshu actively promoted the "dethronement of the hundred schools of thought and exclusive respect for Confucianism" and won the approval of Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty, Confucian learning has been completely integrated into the blood of the Han people.

Among them, the most effective is actually the religion of etiquette.

Etiquette is a thing that defines human morality.

From the titles between relatives to the etiquette of weddings and funerals, there are extremely strict definitions.

What is Civilization?

Civilization is that the father died, you know to miss him, you know to bury him, not to roast and eat on the fire!

What is Civilization?

Civilization is that you know that you can't marry your blood relatives, you can't have copulation, sons can't marry their mothers, they can't marry their own sisters!

What is Civilization?

Civilization means that you know very well that if you want to eat enough, you have to work by yourself, if you want to wear clothes, you have to weave by yourself, and you have to cover the private parts of your body with things, and you can't be naked. Walking birds all over the world, have a sense of shame!

Therefore, the thing of etiquette is actually a watershed that defines the difference between man and beast.

For thousands of years, rituals have been a guide to people's lives.

Of course, this is the earliest etiquette, and the later etiquette is very annoying, and groups of Confucian students, in order to make all people a model of Confucian behavior, deliberately added more behavioral norms to it.

Then, the dross comes out.

The more these contents are filled, the more constraints are placed on human behavior.

Until Zhu Xi, after the etiquette was thoroughly carried forward, the etiquette basically became a rat crossing the street and everyone shouted and beaten.

Yun Zhao called Zhu Xi's behavior a snake painting.

If you think about it, before the Ming Dynasty, although the behavior of men and women also received some constraints, these constraints were generally useful to society.

In that era, men and women were actually the main force to support their families, and in the Song Dynasty, women could even travel alone, dissatisfied with their marriage, and even divorced.

The religion of etiquette even says it clearly - the way of husband and wife, if there is righteousness, it will be together, and if there is no righteousness, it will go.

And then it didn't work......

Confucianism reached the end of its development in the Ming Dynasty.

Once anything has reached the end of its development and does not know how to find a new point of support, decay is almost certain.

Confucianism's restraint on human nature is cruel and effective.

The weakest link of Yushan Xinxue is the restraint on human nature.

After all, in a school based on success, it is easy for people to become unscrupulous people for the sake of their ends.

Therefore, in the Yushan Imperial Court, although the policies introduced are all bright, the means of doing things by officials always seem very gloomy, which is why to this day, Yun Zhao has not been able to take off the hat of a thief.

Back then, the world's eight great Kou were the eight poisonous dragons churning in the sky of Daming, just like the eight Gu worms raised by God in the bowl of Daming, and now, Yun Zhao has won and become the new poison king.

The reason why people have this impression of Yunzhao has a lot to do with culture.

Because, Lantian people act like thieves, talk like thieves, and even look like thieves, so in the eyes of the people, they are thieves.

If you want to remove the hat of thieves, you can't do without the traditional culture that you are familiar with.

Since you can't do without it, then take the initiative to accept it.

Therefore, in Yunxian's education, Yunzhao has adopted a new way of education.

In other words, this is a big wind direction, one that marks the beginning of the Lantian Imperial Court not to reject the old doctrines.

Yushan County, Qianyun Building.

Liu Ru got up early in the morning, and after seeing the girl from the nurse, she cooked a pot of white porridge herself, and sent it back to the room with a little fine snacks and pickles.

Qian Qianyi had already gotten up, sat in front of the window and combed his hair with a comb, and when he saw Liu Ru coming in, he smiled and said, "Is the winter melon ever okay?" ”

Liu Ru said with a smile: "It should be the winter melon to ask the master for peace." ”

Qian Qianyi shook his head and said: "Liu Confucius is wrong, this is a reversed year, and it is also a year when Huang Zhong destroyed the clay kettle and thundered, yin and yang are not distinguished, the four seasons are uncertain, the thieves are high above the temple, and the doctor is hidden among the peddlers and pawns."

Everyone is proud of what they have gained, and they are ashamed of their losses, but they don't know that losses are actually more shocking than gains. ”

Liu Ru smiled: "Why do concubines see more smiling faces from those peddlers and pawns? ”

Qian Qianyi said with a smile: "This is what has to be done, I have to say, Yun Zhao's governance has made the people get more, and the people will naturally have more smiles on their faces, but he doesn't know that the essence of human beings is to be insatiable, when the little ones can't satisfy people's hearts, they will turn into demons and ask for more from the world." ”

Liu Ru is comb helped Qian Qianyi comb his hair, and after pinning the hosta, he said: "Could it be that the people have lost too much, and now that they have it, it is a kind of compensation?" ”

Qian Qianyi smiled and said, "Liu Rushi also believes in the propaganda of the Lantian Imperial Court? ”

Liu Ru nodded and said, "At the time of Zhu Ming, the people's lives were too hard. ”

Qian Qianyi sighed and said, "After all, order comes first. ”

Liu said: "The smoke of exploitation was everywhere, and finally the ship was wrecked and sunk, and no one escaped punishment, and order no longer existed. ”

Qian Qianyi said: "Only the mean can be self-controlled." ”

Liu Ru smiled and said: "Master, are you preparing to enter the customs and teach the second prince?" ”

Qian Qianyi said: "The skin is ugly and tight. ”

Liu Ru said again: "The master still decided to go, right?" ”

Qian Qianyi nodded and said, "Yushan is humid in spring, so it's good to go to Guanzhong for a walk." ”

Liu Ru smiled: "You said that the world is upside down again. ”

Qian Qianyi laughed and said: "It's okay, say hello to the winter melon, the old man is in a good mood!" ”

The next day, Qian Qianyi took Liu Ruis and winter melons to Lantian instead.

"Lantian Daily" was very concerned about the matter of Empress Qian Duoduo asking for Mr. for her son, published this news in the newspaper, and wrote a commentator's article, boldly guessing the candidate for Mr. Prince.

Even if Lantian does not have a good opinion of Qian Qianyi, everyone feels that it is very likely that Qian Qianyi will become the chief gentleman of the prince this time.

As early as when Yun Zhao made this decision, both Xu Yuanshou and Zhang Xianliang were very dissatisfied with this decision, Xu Yuanshou came to Yun Zhao twice and found that he could not change this practice.

So, Mr. Zhang Xianliang returned to Ningxia Town again, ready to teach Yunzhang in person.

For this result, Yun Zhao is still very satisfied.

In May, Hanlingshan returned from the Usi-Tibetan Plateau.

At this time, Hanling Mountain was basically indistinguishable from the Wusi Tibetans, dark, robust, rough, and savage.

According to Han Lingshan, the chaos on the Us-Tibet Plateau will continue for a while, and after Lantian cleared out all the people and troops in the Us-Tibetan region, the people of the Us-Tibet spontaneously carried out a vigorous land reform.

The results were very good, because with the Living Buddha of Mozhigen presiding over the work, each serf had a piece of his own land.

The Living Buddha also conveyed Yun Zhao's will that from now on, there will be no more slaves on the Uszang Plateau, and everyone will be a free person with their own land, cattle and sheep.

It was like a process of catching fire in the grasslands, first in Lhasa, and then from that point in all directions, and the number of slaves joining the ranks of the rebels became more and more numerous, and their ranks became more and more majestic.

As a result, these people vigorously pushed for slave reform, and the process of land reform became faster and faster.

These honest slaves didn't realize that in this process, it was always those brothers who were like the Han people who played a role.

And any Uszang brothers, once they have a certain prestige, will always die in a fierce or not fierce battle against the slave owners.

And this is the control system that Yun Zhao requires.

"I am going to establish a legion of about 20,000 people in Uszang, and this legion will become the most powerful protector of the people of Uszang, whether it is an enemy from the Western Regions or an enemy from Nepal, it will be the enemy of this Uszang legion."

After listening to Han Lingshan's words, Yun Zhao pondered for a moment and said, "In other words, one Wu Sizang can't satisfy you anymore, right?" “

Han Lingshan said: "Wusizang is a lonely plateau, but around him, it is a land of fish and rice with a mild climate and abundant water. Since we have occupied the Uszang Plateau, we cannot let him waste our condescending superiority.

Moreover, I also found that the people around Uszang generally seem to be not very smart. I think it is our responsibility to tell these people what is truly civilized life. ”

Yun Zhao smiled: "Use the army? ”

Han Lingshan nodded and said, "This is the best way to deal with them. ”

Yun Zhao said: "Then wait for the meeting to decide." ”

It can be seen that Han Lingshan has two main ways to deal with the aftermath of Wu Sizang.

One is to select the strongest and most obedient fighters from among the rebels and train them into the Blue Sky Legion.

The other is the strategy of preparing luggage for peach stiffness.

By now, there is no way to control the beacon fire of Uszang.

Recruiting the strongest fighters of the rebel army into the regular army can effectively disintegrate and deter some of the ill-intentioned, and at the same time make some careerists stop themselves from being careful.

When the flames of Uszang could not be stopped, it was a good choice to consciously guide the rest of the rebels to the Western Regions or Nepal.

When these Tibetans have tasted the benefits of the real plunder, the Tibetans may be able to revert to becoming brave and warlike Tibetans.

And those Usi Tibetans who have really become warriors will become the defenders of this land, of course, the people in this legion will naturally be mainly Usi Tibetans, but it is difficult to say about the officers.

"That's where we fail."

After Yun Zhao finished reading Han Lingshan's overall plan, he couldn't help but sigh.

"You mean it's not above board?"

"yes, I've always felt like we're doing things a little sneaky now, and this shouldn't be what a country should look like."
