Chapter 430: Priceless Treasure
"Your Majesty, the time is coming."
Cao Cao raised his glass for a moment, glanced at the old eunuch beside him with low eyebrows, and when he knew it, he waved his hand to let him retreat.
After the eunuch retreated, Cao Cao coughed a few times, so that all the civil and military officials who were doing it were silenced, and after attracting their attention, he said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, the time is approaching, and the first day of joy is about to pass. ”
Baiguan was stunned, to be honest, in this era, the official is still very good at manipulating, and the attitude can be described as high, not to mention other aspects in later generations, just the willingness of the official to put down his body and face the people is already very good, whether he is a show or not, but at least he has done it.
But in this era, don't say it's sincere, even if it's a show, most of these officials don't like it, after all, in their opinion, as officials, they worry about national affairs all day long, according to later generations, that is, it is very high, why do you want to know the identity and meet a group of illiterate mud legs, isn't it a shame.
What's more, these officials are not the same as after the Song Dynasty, in addition to being officials, they also have a double identity, that is, the children of the family, the two identities are combined, it can be said that most of the officials before the Song Dynasty have a much more serious contempt for the people than the dynasties after the Song Dynasty.
If it was not Cao Cao who raised this matter at this time, but other officials. Then it will definitely be sprayed with incomplete skin, and it will not even be possible to mix in the officialdom in the future.
However, in the face of Cao Cao, the prestigious founder of the country, even some of these officials were unhappy. But he also had to agree to Cao Cao's proposal on the surface, and even praised Cao Cao for how much he was a saint and the demeanor of an ancient saint king.
Cao Cao was not fluttered by the praise of these so-called holy monarchs and holy kings, at least he knew very well what the reason for the silence of these officials at the beginning.
But it doesn't matter, as long as his purpose is achieved. After all, these officials, Cao Cao doesn't really have to rely on them, as the students of the Chen Capital Academy are getting bigger and bigger. After completing his studies, Cao Cao's dependence on these officials from born families has long been less than it was at the beginning.
Cao Cao led his ministers to the city wall of the main gate of Nangong, although it was approaching the time of the child. However, none of the people of Daliang went to sleep. They are all waiting for the arrival of the child hour, the first day of the new year, which is the first hour of the twelve hours, and therefore generally represents the arrival of a new day.
The people of Daliang did not go home to sleep, and most of them were still concentrated in the streets and alleys of Daliang, so when Cao Cao led hundreds of civil and military officials to climb the main gate of Nangong City Wall together, he was discovered by the people near Nangong in an instant. And the news of Cao Cao's visit to the city wall also spread quickly, and it took a while. Almost the entire people who got the news had already come to the Nangong City Gate, their eyes excited, looking at the top excitedly.
"Dude, is it true that I heard that His Majesty is up there?"
"I don't know, but it should be right to think about it, after all, who dares to spread rumors about His Majesty's whereabouts!"
"Yes, I really didn't expect that I would be able to see the holy face with my own eyes one day!"
“”
Although the perils of the dynasties in ancient China, most of them were in the hands of the people who died and revolted, but it was entirely because the dynasties died by themselves, forcing the people to not even live, so that they would perish in their hands. In their hearts, the reason why the world is like this is because of the traitorous ministers who bewitch the emperor, not the emperor himself, therefore, since ancient times, there have been many mediocre ministers in China, but there are very few mediocre and cruel emperors.
Most of the incompetent or brutal emperors were the last kings, so it is not clear whether this is the case in history or a smear by subsequent dynasties.
Compared with the last monarch, many mediocre or traitorous ministers not only appeared at the end of the dynasty, but also in the middle of the dynasty and even in the early stage, which shows that the Chinese people have a good impression and trust in the emperor.
Cao Cao, who thought of this, had to sigh that the people on the land of China were priceless treasures for any country and any king, at least the kings in the West who were persecuted by the people and lords under their command every day, after seeing the Chinese people, they would definitely burst into tears, crying and regretting why they were not reincarnated in China but in the West.
I have to say that although the imperial power system is the mainstream at this stage, it is really only China that has really developed the imperial power system to the peak and firmly grasped the fruits of its system in its hands.
In the entire medieval era, those kings, emperors, and even governors sent by the pope were not at all comparable to those of China, those emperors who were above 10,000 people, and as for the island country of Japan, it was needless to say that almost every day was in the so-called inferior manner, and their emperor was even worse than those kings and emperors in the West.
With such subjects, I can't accomplish anything more!
At this moment, Cao Cao's confidence in his hegemony was even higher, although it was said that the docile and good people were easily ruled by foreign invaders, but it could also allow the rulers of his country to complete the integration of forces more smoothly, and he could quickly and easily unify the power of the entire country and all the people.
What's more, Cao Cao secretly thought about the final fate of those invaders who invaded China, and he didn't think that when they really encountered an attack from a foreign nation, the Chinese people would accept the rule of the foreign invaders without any resistance, just like the Egyptians and Indians.
A strong proof is that when the Mongols ruled almost the entire world, it was the Han people who first rebelled and overthrew the Mongol Yuan, and during the reign of the Mongol Yuan, it was the Han people who did not stop the rebellion. (To be continued......)
