Section 763 Striking a handful (2)
Listening to Liu Che's words, the ministers all fell to the ground one after another, and said in fear: "Your Majesty, this is all the fault of the ministers, and it has nothing to do with Your Majesty!" ”
Prime Minister Zhou Yafu even took off his hat to apologize, and bowed: "The minister is entrusted by the first emperor and Taizong, and he can't support His Majesty, and he can't settle the country, this is the crime of the minister!" ”
Doctor Yushi Chao and the ministers of Jiuqing also took off their hats and apologized: "The incompetence of the ministers has caused the monarch's father to be humiliated, and this is the fault of the ministers!" ”
Are you kidding?!
If the Son of Heaven really avoided the main temple in plain clothes, fasted and bathed, and confessed to the gods of God's ancestors.
Isn't this sin, then, deeper than the sea, higher than the mountains, and thicker than the earth?
Since ancient times, the lord has humiliated his ministers to death.
Once things develop to that point, all of them have only one choice - suicide to thank the world.
The reason is very simple, the three princes and nine secretaries, the important ministers of the country, the son of heaven, and the next An Lishu, are subject to the weight of the famous instrument of the society.
You actually let the Son of Heaven make mistakes, and you have to reflect on yourself?
How did you behave as a courtier?
Yes and only death can lessen their guilt a little.
And Liu Che easily kidnapped Sangong Jiuqing and their group through this means.
So that they have to choose between the correctness of the Son of Heaven and the innocence of Jinan.
This method is indeed a scoundrel.
But it works.
Because, in this way, Liu Che can guarantee that no matter what, things will not expand, let alone turn into party disputes or even political turmoil!
Of course, if you want to play this play, you have to play the whole set.
Liu Che showed a sad expression and said, "Do you think that I am not wrong?" ”
He lowered his head, as if he was reflecting on himself: "If it weren't for my incompetence, I wouldn't be able to supervise Jinan." So that they may do righteousness for good, educate the people with morality, and be safe from today's woes? ”
"The people of Zhangqiu, aren't they righteous people?"
"Under the heavy pressure of Jinan, they are restrictive and tyrannical, and they can still think of the world's society. The envoy went north and begged for me, and the envoy walked barefoot, begging all the way to Luoyang, and sued the world with a bloody book! ”
"Such righteous people, Jinan can still make them ......"
"If I don't reflect on it again, I am worried, and Chen will be involved in Wu Guang's disaster. Not far off! ”
Liu Che decisively occupies the commanding heights of morality and universal values, and is full of firepower.
On the surface, although he is introspecting and asking himself, in fact, every word is forcing the ministers to convict Liu Piguang, the king of Jinan, and it is a capital crime!
The people of Zhangqiu revolted, for the ruling class. Certainly an unacceptable sin of great sin!
The common people refused to starve to death and died of exhaustion at home, but ran out to make trouble. Trouble for the old guys!?
It's the other way around!
However, the ruling class, especially the ruling class of the Han dynasty, is more afraid of the repetition of the story of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang.
You think, the current aristocracy and bureaucrats are basically born with a golden key. Characters who are born wealthy.
Of course, they hope that their wealth will be passed on to their children and grandchildren.
And the story of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang tells them that once the peasant uprising expanded. Everywhere there is smoke and smoke.
Yesterday's princes and princes will become today's ghosts, and the princes and ministers who were high in the past will become mustard who want to survive but cannot get it today.
In that year, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rebelled, completely destroying and eliminating the old nobles of the Tianxia Kingdom.
The emperors and generals who established the Han Dynasty, except for a few people such as Zhang Liang and some old aristocratic blood, the rest of them were all peddlers and pawns and dog slaughterers.
Those Ying clan and Ji clan, who boast of noble status and noble blood, are all under the wheel of history, and there is not even a little scum left after being crushed.
Qin Chuqi, Zhao Weiyan, Han Zhu, the royal family and ministers, now, how many are still alive?
That's why the nobles, ministers, and doctors reacted so violently on the issue of Zhangqiu.
This is not only because of the resistance of the people, which aroused their hatred of the same enemy and the sadness of the rabbit and the fox.
More people, but because of fear and fear.
In the West, revolution is contagious, but in China, uprisings and revolts are even more terrible contagions.
Since Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, no matter how powerful the dynasty seems on the surface, once it starts an uprising, it will come to an end in the continuous peasant uprisings.
As a regime that won the world with an insurrectionary army, the Liu family, for generations, has been well aware of the power and power of the peasant uprising.
Therefore, in the eyes of the Son of Heaven.
If the princes and nobles rebel, they can be suppressed by sending troops, because this is only a temporary trouble.
Extinguished, there will be no problem.
But as soon as the peasants start to revolt, it shows that something is wrong with the state policy and the national economy!
Why did Emperor Wu issue an edict in history?
In addition to the withering of people's livelihood, the biggest reason is that he saw the signs of a peasant uprising.
In order to put an end to the peasant uprising, he had to issue an edict to win back the hearts and minds of the people.
The matter of Zhangqiu, although it was not an uprising, was just a riot.
The people who rebelled and raised the banner were only against the faint king, not against the Son of Heaven.
But Liu Che still attaches great importance to this, even to the point that it is more important than the Xiongnu.
Liu Che knows very well that the Chinese people will never lie.
Since they have risen up and resisted by force, there is only one indication of the problem: that something is wrong with the policy of the emperor or the ruling class.
All the emperors who could not heed these signals ended up going to hell with their dynasty.
This is the case in the Qin Dynasty, the same is true in the Han Dynasty, this is the case in the Sui Dynasty, and even more so in the Tang and Ming dynasties!
The Chinese people are the people who know how to vote with their feet the most on the planet.
They don't have the good temper of the serfs and workers in the West, they obviously can't survive, and they still have to work and cultivate for the nobles, and pray to the three giants of the Jiyoujiao every day.
That's impossible!
The emperor and the ruling class, if the people can't live, the people will definitely make them unable to live!
The people of Zhangqiu have proved this point with practical actions.
At the same time, they also sent a clear signal: Emperor, there is something wrong with your policy.
Any wise emperor is bound to face up to this problem.
And there will be some kind of response to reassure the people.
"Jinan has no way, is it Your Majesty's fault...... Shaofu ordered Liu She to be the first to stand up and cheer for his master: "And the minister heard that when Wu rebelled, Jinan was ready to move, fortunately, the first emperor Shengming, with the general to collect his military power, therefore, this thief and treacherous plan can not succeed!" Jinan has been tyrannical for a long time, and the minister thinks that it is not His Majesty's fault......"
Zongzheng Liu Li also said: "Your Majesty bows to the gods, Jia is a great benefit to the world, the minister heard that it is the people of Zhangqiu, and they also think that Your Majesty is the Holy Son of Heaven, facing the north and knocking, accusing Your Majesty, and then dare to raise troops, this is the proof that Your Majesty is thick in heaven and earth!" ”
Taichang Dou Pengzu also bowed: "The minister also heard that the people of Zhangqiu, before the incident, burned incense, prayed to heaven and earth, and said: The minister is loyal to the Son of Heaven, but the king has no way to violence, and my family is violent, so that I have no way to live, and I have to risk death to anger Tianyan, and the capital crime is ...... capital crime" (to be continued. )
