Section 748 State Funeral (2)
"Therefore, Sima Wang Zhongdao of Nanhai County, Qin......"
"Therefore, the county lieutenant of Qin Panyu County returned ......"
One coffin after another, buried in the tomb.
The atmosphere of Lishan is becoming more and more solemn and solemn.
Following Liu Che's car, the generals and ministers of the Han family who watched the ceremony together looked at all this in amazement like Zhao Tuo.
"Your Majesty is a little too solemn......" someone slandered in his heart.
You must know that even Emperor Gao's burial of Lu Hou Xu Juan was much inferior to today's pomp.
Who is Xu Juan?
Emperor Gao loves generals, from Pei County to the dragon, followed Emperor Gao to fight the world, after more than 100 battles, to thousands of miles of famous generals!
When Xiao He presided over the evaluation of the merits of the heroes, he was placed alongside Wuyang Hou Fan Xu.
What's more, Xu Juan died on the battlefield before the world was calm.
After Emperor Gao ascended the throne, he often missed Xu Juan.
Therefore, in the second year of the Han Dynasty, when the heroes were divided, Qiankun was arbitrary, and Xu Juan's mother was named a liehou, with 4,800 households, ranking eighth in the list of famous generals of the Han Dynasty.
It is conceivable that if Xu Juan is alive, it is very likely that he will be like Wuyang and Pingyang, and he will be sealed by 10,000 households.
But even if Emperor Gao liked Xu Juan so much, he did not bury him so solemnly and solemnly.
Only the funeral ceremony of Tian Heng, the king of Qi, who sacrificed his head to Luoyang, can be comparable to today's scene.
Therefore, many people are uncomfortable in their hearts.
I feel that I think of my fathers and ancestors, and my siblings, and there is no such treatment and honor after death.
This general of the previous dynasty has not made an inch of contribution to the country, and His Majesty is so kind. It's just ......
"Reward and punishment are unfair...... many people said in their hearts.
Liu Che looked back at the appearance and attitude of the minister behind him, and sighed in his heart.
Today's Chinese scholars, doctors, ministers, and marquis. Although it has awakened to the hazy nationalist ******** - the Huayi debate.
But in the final analysis, China has not been a nation by blood since ancient times. Rather, it is a nation that is united by cultural identity.
Therefore, there is a famous saying that 'Yi Di enters China, and China enters Yi Di then Yi Di'.
For the Chinese, blood is useless, and the cultural system is the standard by which someone is judged to be Yi or Xia.
Under this standard, the so-called national consciousness is naturally relatively weak.
Those who agree with the concept of the Chinese cultural system, even if they are barbarians on the European continent, can also be called Huaxia. If you don't use the etiquette of the Chinese writing system, even if you are in Chang'an, it is a livestock walking on two legs.
This way of thinking determines that the Zhuxia people have the best assimilation ability in the world - before there is a strange department, whether you are a nomad in the north or a barbarian in the ravines and ravines of the south.
All of them were finally assimilated in the long course of history and became part of the Zhuxia nation.
However, there are pros and cons.
This way of thinking leads to another consequence.
That is, the clan is greater than the state.
For most doctors. The home is greater than the country.
This directly led to the tragic fate of the later Song and Ming dynasties and even the Manchu Qing dynasty.
Since the family is more important than the country, in order to preserve the glory and wealth of the family, the country's social affairs are the same thing.
So. The Jin Shang Group at the end of the Ming Dynasty, for the benefit of their own family, naturally sold the old Zhu family without scruples. Guan Ning's military generals group, for their own chic. Of course, he can eat the blood of soldiers without any scruples and extort the imperial court.
The gentry of the South. For his own interests, of course, he can resist taxes, and even play the matter of five people's epitaphs.
Even if the Qing soldiers went south later, before the shaving order was issued, the gentry in the entire south basically knelt down to welcome the king.
Until the order to shave the hair was issued, and the Qing soldiers began to collect taxes.
The southern gentry only then woke up to the fact that this was going to perish in the world, so they fought hard, but it was too late.
As for Yiya, the merchants of Guangdong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Fujian during the reign of the Manchu Qing Dynasty could naturally follow the same example, sell supplies to the British army, and even lead the way for the British army, and even try their best to persuade the Manchu Dynasty to sign a treaty and lose money!
Why?
Because the home is bigger than the country!
Except for a few sober people, everyone else is full of thoughts, thinking about how to make money and how to come, as for the life and death of the country's society? It's about my birds!
As everyone knows, these guys dug a pit with their own hands, and finally buried themselves and their children and grandchildren in it.
As a result, the Song and Ming dynasties perished, and the Jurchen soldiers, Mongols, and Manchurians who came in easily took away all the wealth they had accumulated over generations, and their wives and children were all reduced to slavery.
As for those guys in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, they personally introduced the power of Western capital into China, and then the entire Chinese bourgeoisie was wiped out!
Since then, the so-called national bourgeoisie has basically become synonymous with compradors.
The once illustrious Thirteen Lines of Guangzhou disappeared, and the Central Empire, which once occupied sixty percent of the world's wealth, fell into the clouds, and even had to be manipulated and taught by the millennium brother Neon.
But this is not because they are stupid, but because they are so smart, so smart that in feudal society it is already clear that capital has no borders.
But they don't know that capital does have no borders, but capitalists have a motherland!
Without the strength of the motherland, your assets, of course, will only be turned into other people's plates.
Therefore, later **** Taizu concluded that the Chinese bourgeoisie is congenitally insufficient.
In Liu Che's view, not only the bourgeoisie, but also the bureaucracy of scholars and nobles are all congenitally deficient.
For these guys, the ship surnamed Liu is going to sink, so let's change the surname to Cao, what? The surname Cao is not good, and the surname Sima seems to be okay...... Then change it again?
Eventually, they were stunned to find that some monster had escaped.
Five chaotic China, Shenzhou Lu Shen.
This lesson is not unprofound.
But these guys don't remember to eat.
And the source of all these tragedies lies in the Chinese scholars, ministers, and even emperors. Since ancient times, there has only been the interests of one family and one surname in the eyes. And rarely consider the relationship between the world and the family and the country.
Or rather, even if you know. That doesn't matter.
Anyway, the sky is falling, and there is always a high top.
Let's dig the foot of the wall with peace of mind!
But Liu Che decided to break this perception.
Especially as an emperor, he knows very well that the interests and authority of the Liu family are of course important!
However, if the skin does not have hair, will it be attached?
If it is because of one's own interests, the people in the world are not happy.
Well, the throne of the Liu family. It's going to be crumbling right away.
Safeguarding the interests of Zhuxia and the life, property, and personal well-being of the people in the world are directly linked to the stability of the throne of the Liu family itself.
And the same is true for the princes and princes.
If the world is turbulent, the people are not happy, and swords and soldiers are everywhere.
Can these nobles, lords, and scholars still be able to open their bodies in peace?
If you don't get dragged out and hacked to death, it's already very lucky that all your wives and daughters are reduced to RBQ.
After the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, the fate of the Zhao royal family of Bianliang, as well as ordinary noble officials and ordinary people. Isn't it the same?
So, when the last coffin was buried, it was buried in the tomb.
Liu Che stood up from the car and let the car turn its head. Facing his ministers, nobles, and generals.
His son of heaven was in front of his forehead, moving in the wind, and his crown was wide. Holy and majestic.
"Emperor Zugao, Emperor Gao, rebel soldier. Beat the tyranny of Qin and hang the people for the crime. Therefore, God has given the mandate of heaven to govern China! Liu Che slowly said to the members of his Shimin Minister's Liehou royal family: "Although Qin has no way, the generals of the expedition and the generals of the Great Wall garrison are not guilty!" ”
"Instead of being innocent, it is meritorious!"
"In the past, the king had no way, so the king of Wu cut down the merchants, and the ancestors of Zhou Ran worshiped the first king of Yin Shang, and in the poems and books, they often sang more than once!" Liu Che slowly organized the language and said: "Shiyun: Tart and Yin Wu, fight against Jing Chu." Delve into its obstacles, and take a journey through the thorns. There is a place to intercept it, and Tang Sun's thread. Since the three kings, the former generations of virtuous kings and famous ministers, in order to praise the heroes of later generations, this is a gift for China! ”
Since the Zhou Dynasty moved eastward, China has encountered a major cultural fault.
Now, no one can say clearly what kind of handling methods and attitudes the previous dynasties were in the period of Zong Zhou, Yin Shang, and Xia Hou.
But it doesn't matter.
In the Book of Songs, there are indeed six verses.
On top of the book, there are more songs of Tang Wuding, Xia Qi and other ancestors.
Since ancient times, the conquest of Yidi and the expansion of land for Zhuxia are the gentlemen's trips praised and praised by the ancestors.
From this point of view, what Liu Che said can also make sense.
In this case, Liu Che's behavior today is not a reward or punishment of injustice, but a trip to worship three generations of ancestors, praise the virtues of heroes and famous generals, and continue to be rewarded by future generations and on behalf of heaven.
Even the most old-fashioned Ruru can't say that Liu Che is not.
"It's a pity that Emperor Qin doesn't reward meritorious generals, and now I am ordered by heaven to govern the world on behalf of the heavens, and I won't reward you?"
Anyway, Qin Shi Huang is a pot, no matter what the crime, he can be made to carry it.
Dead people can't speak, and it's impossible to jump out and refute them.
Liu Che looked at the four directions and said: "Let's read the history books, see the story of Wei Wenhou, and know the reason that the skin does not exist and the hair will be attached......"
Liu Che raised his voice: "In my opinion, Zhuxia is skin, the world is skin, and the ancestor Sheji is skin, compared to me, even if it is me, it is as light as a feather, not worth mentioning!" ”
Speaking of which, the ancestral stunt of the old Liu family, pretending to force the eighteenth layer of the divine skill to be fully charged.
Moreover, this force is also there and as long as the Liu Tianzi can pretend.
No one else dared to open this opening.
I didn't see Mencius's status, but because of the sentence 'the people are important, the monarch is light', he was directly relegated to the lowest level than the Confucian sons, and even in the thousand-year-long history, he must not turn over?
This topic is indeed a bit sensitive.
But the old Liu family has never been afraid to challenge sensitivities and taboos, and has never even been afraid to speak out publicly and explain their ideas.
This is a tradition that has been established since Liu Bang.
When Liu Bang was in Yongxian County, Weinan, he recreated a black emperor alive, which has already made people all over the world appreciate the rogue nature of the old Liu family.
In the Taizong period, he broke the routine and publicly declared the world: the world is in chaos, and I am alone, and then order hundreds of officials and nobles, from now on, pray and pray for the heavens, first pray for the people, and no longer pray for the king.
In the edict, it is even more clear: and I am not virtuous, and there is no way to support the people; Now the collapse has made the heavy service come for a long time, so as to get away from the cold and summer......
And all this did not diminish his authority.
Instead, it elevated his authority and authority to a supreme position.
Even the current Liu Che, whose reputation and support among the people are not as good as that of this son of heaven.
To this day, the people of Guanzhong still regard this Son of Heaven as a 'saint', and the saint is much more important than the position of the gods in China.
If the gods can't protect everyone and show their power, then there will be no sacrifices, and sooner or later they will be finished.
But the saint is a perfect existence who follows his words and follows the world.
It is a supreme symbol far beyond the gods.
An obvious example is that in the vast rural areas of the **** in later generations, every household has a portrait of Taizu, and even many families hang the portrait of Taizu under the god card of the ancestor god, and worship it in total.
The majority of driver comrades are always equipped with Taizu pendants, and with the power of Taizu, they suppress all disasters on their bodies.
At this time, the status of the Han family and Taizong was probably such an image.
In Guanzhong, even if it is just an old peasant who has never been literate and has never entered the city, he will bow and bow in the direction of Baling every New Year's Festival.
The mountains and rivers of Baling are even more daring to offend.
This made Liu Che look at it, his eyes were very hot, and he was actually jealous in his heart.
Now, learning from his grandfather, he puts the people of the world and the people of the society on his head, thinking that the world and the society are more important than his own emperor.
Come to think of it, no scumbag would dare to jump up and slap him.
No one will shoot him either.
To be reasonable, Mencius's doctrine and thought are actually the most caring for the aristocracy and gentry in Confucianism.
As the saying goes, the people are important, and the monarch is light.
Who is this people?
Even in another 2,000 years, China's bureaucrats and capitalists will probably pat their chests and say, "Of course it's me."
Something, if you are obedient, then you will be reluctantly honored people.
Well, only the kind that has the right to applaud, and no right to vote.
But in Liu Che's view, this is also a major step forward.
After the emperor admitted that the world and the society were more important than himself, that scum dared to jump up and say that his home was in front of the country.
10,000 royal trolls are already in place, ensuring that he will not be able to spray half of his body!
However, Liu Che understands that this is just the first step.
We want to eliminate the long-ing-entrenched idea that the family is more important than the country, and that we should think of the country first and then the country, and replace it with the idea that there is a country first, then a family, and that the interests of the country and the nation are more important than the interests of the individual family.
There's still a long way to go.
Fortunately, Liu Che has a large group of helpers in this matter.
In particular, the entire Confucian group of mouths will help him advocate and improve the theoretical system.
Moreover, the heavy people faction in Luoyang has been in the layout for two or three years, and it can almost provide him with some strength to wave the flag and shout.
"Yes, I am a state funeral ceremony to reward the late Qin Zhengyue generals, but to tell the world: I respect the rule of the first king and praise the heroes of Zhuxia, no matter who it is, whoever can make meritorious contributions to Zhuxia, I will not hesitate to reward and reseal!" Liu Che said clearly. (To be continued.) )

So, I asked you to take a break, and by the way, I played outside and exercised~
