311. Revival

If you want to say that this Li Er is shameless enough, it should be said that all emperors are shameless enough, Li Er is just the best of them, for the sake of this reputation, he took the initiative to divide his identity into two different subordinates, one is the blatant identity, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and the other is the head of the Li family, the head of a family.

It is not difficult to say that it is not difficult to accept this idea, because this is a level that Confucianism agrees with, compared with Confucius, Mencius pays more attention to the germination of people-oriented thought and even democratic thought, most of Confucianism's democratic ideas come from Mencius, and ancient Chinese society, especially after the Qin Dynasty, is not so much called a feudal society, but it is better to divide a level.

The so-called feudalism is called feudal statehood, which should refer to the social form of the Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Tianzi is the co-lord of the world, and the land of the Zhou royal family is divided into princes, and the princes govern on behalf of them, and have all the power on that land, which is called feudal statehood; This is extremely rare after the Han Dynasty, and basically they are all royal families with the same surname, and their power is also very small, and they can only get taxes instead of all the power of the land, so since the rebellion of the seven kings in the Han Dynasty and the rebellion of the eight kings in the Jin Dynasty, the royal family has attached great importance to the royal family.

It's like these kings of the Tang Dynasty, Li Daozong and Li Xiaogong, are all noble kings, but they basically don't have actual power, even their fiefs can't take their turn to manage the administration, Suning is a marquis, and he is a monarch in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, enjoying high power, but now, in addition to collecting a little tax, is there any other meaning? Strictly speaking, since Liu Bang took the oath to kill the white horse. Since the Wuhu Rebellion, China can no longer be regarded as a feudal society.

And the so-called dictatorship is also debatable, throughout history, from the late Western Zhou Dynasty because of the rebellion of the Chinese people caused by the expulsion of King Zhou Li, the Zhou royal family elected two ministers for republican administration, and then to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period and even the Qin and Han dynasties, the power and authority of the monarch and the emperor have always been not absolute, a considerable part of Cheng dΓΉ, the monarch and the emperor are not the actual supreme power controllers of the country, so who is the highest power controller of the country?

The answer is the entire group of noble ministers. In layman's terms. That is, it is equivalent to the House of Lords composed of British nobles, and its essence is equivalent to the aristocratic republican system of the entire group of nobles, princes and ministers. The monarch and the emperor cannot be in charge. And it is all decided by the princes and ministers. The abolition of kings and emperors was not decided by the imperial family, but by the entire ruling group.

In the Western Zhou Dynasty, a Chinese riot drove away King Zhou Li and forced King Zhou Li to die in the wilderness. In the end, King Xuan of Zhou ascended the throne, and the Han Dynasty also had Huo Guang and his ministers to abolish the immorality and immorality of Liu He, the king of Changyi, and welcomed the later Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty Liu Xun as the emperor, Liu Xun is the only emperor in Chinese history who has suffered from imprisonment Liu Aiji, a famous virtuous monarch.

Under the aristocratic republican system, the supreme power of the country is controlled by the entire ruling group, not the emperor, on the contrary, the emperor will be greatly constrained, and even the heirs can not decide for themselves, but also consider the opinions of the ministers, which in Suning's view, is not evil, but a primitive democracy, although the scope of democracy is very small, similar to the democracy of ancient Greece, but this is not the embodiment of the emperor's dictatorship after all.

Just like today's Li Erma, he has to be careful in handling everything, and the current shape of the entire Tang Dynasty is particularly similar to the shape of the early British Whig Party and the Tory Party, playing with each other in the "parliament" - the court, the Whig Party is the Guanlong aristocratic group born by Li Erma, and the Tory Party is the Shandong family wealthy group, and the two sides play with each other, one holds the gun and grabs the right to speak - the pen; The other has the pen in his hand, and he is trying his best to snatch the gun that represents the political power and fight with each other.

It is better to have an opposition than no opposition, and it is better to have competitors than no competitors, but the tragedy of China is that this group, which can directly restrain the emperor's imperial power for a long time, is a historical garbage that obstructs the country's fundamental civilian class to reach a higher level, and their arrogance and pride, as well as discrimination against the lower classes of civilians, make their existence become an obstacle to historical development, and their destruction is inevitable, even if there is no Suning's existence. They will also completely lose their former glory after 200 years, and they will not be seen by everyone.

The Song Dynasty was the peak of ancient democracy and the golden age of the common literati, but it is not difficult to see that the various preferential actions of the royal family in the Song Dynasty were their own spontaneous behaviors, not forced behaviors, and they lacked strong opposition power, so that after the Song Dynasty royal family was eliminated, the Chinese nation could not find a class that could restrain the highest level of power, the essence of the literati class was destroyed in Yashan, the literati style was gone, and the civil official group of the Ming Dynasty was strong. The cabinet system maintained the existence of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor of the Ming Dynasty did not go to court for nearly a hundred years, which was due to the system, and the imperial power had lost its object of restraint and was about to be released.

Finally, after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the cabinet did not exist, and the system was destroyed, there was no strong political power to replace the gap left by the system to restrain the imperial power, and the imperial power could only reach the top, and finally, Shenzhou fell.

And in this era, the wealthy families of Shandong are an important force to restrain the imperial power in the considerable Cheng dΓΉ, if they are destroyed overnight, the imperial power of the Tang Dynasty will not be restricted, and the court will become a one-party monopoly, without the existence of opposition forces, dictatorship and autocracy will arrive in the near future, even if Li Shimin pays attention to democracy within the group, more people still pay attention to power.

Suo Si Suning hopes to support a brand-new group while destroying the Miè family, which has enough power to restrain the imperial power, and has enough consciousness to resist the imperial power and counter the imperial power, so that in the post-Li Shimin era after Li Shimin's death, it can bring a gust of wind to the Tang Dynasty and the Chinese nation, and a gust of wind that changes the footsteps of the entire Chinese nation.

And the group of people in front of them, this group of young people, and the group of young people who are about to appear here, will be the earliest founders of this group, and their real era is the post-Li Shimin era. Without Li Shimin, an emperor with great power and prestige, the successor emperor does not have enough authority, and that is when these young people really enter the stage of history, and these young people will become a group of people who will open the world, and they will definitely be able to!

Suning looked at Li Erma, who had a happy expression on his face, and squinted his eyes, you are right, Datang is not your sole decision, it should be the final say of the entire Datang people, although you will not see this scene in your lifetime. I guess you don't want to. However, you will also occupy an extremely important place in the history books of future generations, both in past and present lives. You are a great emperor. And your heirs......

"Headmaster. As the rector of a military university, you are the teacher of all the students, and now the list of students has been decided. The identity of the students has also been confirmed, and the dust has settled, should you go and meet these students? An important matter of the future military university needs your presiding. Suning said to Li Er Majesty with a smile.

Li Erqi blinked his eyes and said with a smile: "Yes, these are all my students, so let's do it, you gather them all tomorrow, I'll go meet them, and, when will this officially start?" Are you all set? ”

Suning said: "The official start of classes is set on the first day of September in the fifth year of Zhenguan, and in the next two months, these students will be transferred to the construction site of the military university to participate in the construction of the military university, in addition to being responsible for other things, anyway, they will not be idle in these two months, the first day of the school will start in September, and then it will be a three-month intensive training, and then it will be the formal teaching, and there will be many ways to teach, you can invite the generals to teach the experience and experience of the battle formation, and there are also fixed courses in the school." ”

Li Erma smiled and asked, "Is this what your master taught you?" Or is it an educational method that is not the same as Datang? I have never heard of it, and the ministers have never heard of it, but I think it is very novel, and it seems very feasible to use it. ”

Suning said: "Your Majesty hasn't read the Mo family classics, right? ”

Li Er was stunned for a moment, and said: "This is really nothing, I haven't read the Mo family classics, and these books are not easy to find, have you read them?" ”

Su Ning nodded: "I have read it, these ideas of the minister are all derived from some practices of Mozi, and your majesty can know why Moxue and Confucianism were called "Confucian Moxianxue" in the pre-Qin period?" ”

Li Erqi asked with interest: "You know a lot, it seems that you are really a scholar of a hundred schools, and you have studied the study of a hundred schools of thought, so tell me, why is this?" ”

Suning saw that the opportunity had come, nodded and said: "In the pre-Qin period, the hundred schools of thought contended, which was an unprecedented grand occasion in the land of China, and the hundreds of schools of thought died in different fields and different countries to promote their respective doctrines, attack each other's doctrines, and also draw from the strengths of each other's doctrines, make up for their shortcomings, and constantly improve their own doctrines, making the hundred schools of thought more and more quintessential and practical.

In the pre-Qin era, it was the era of the weak and the strong, Zhou Tianzi declined, unable to rule the princes, the strong of the princes was the king, and the weak were annexed, at that time, only the two Confucian and Mo families were not recognized by the princes and the strong because of their advocacy of benevolence and love, and love and non-attack, etc., and were not recognized by the strong princes, especially the Mo family, but the world sympathized with the weak, and it was the Confucianism and Mo that were widely inherited and developed, and finally became Confucian and Mo Xianxue.

The grand occasion of the Mohist family, at that time was not weaker than Confucianism, and even developed to the end, only the two Confucianism and Mozi were the most powerful, the Mohist founder Mozi advocated the concept of both love and non-attack, this point will not be discussed for the time being, what the minister is concerned about is how Mozi will carry forward the Mohist family, if a doctrine wants to be carried forward, it must be recognized by many people, Mozi stands on the side of the weak, stands on the side of the bullied, then there are always more weak people in the world, less strong, a group of aspiring weak people gathered around Mozi, Become a powerful Mohist school, chivalrous and righteous, hoe the strong and help the weak, and the Mohist family can become famous.

But relying on this alone, the Mohist family will only be a chivalrous organization, it is impossible to become a prominent school, its root lies in Mozi's own erudition and its educational philosophy that is no different from Confucius, Confucius advocated that there is no class, Mozi also has this proposition, Mozi advocates the selection of talents from the common people, educate them, and make them become talents, for this reason, the Mohist school can also be regarded as a university hall, Mozi is a teacher, and the Mohists are all students.

There is no one in the world who is born to know, it must be through education and learning to become a talent, the Mohist school is like today's Hongwenguan, but what is taught is very different, just like the same beginning, Confucius taught knowledge and ideas, and Mozi paid more attention to practicality, what practical he taught, and will also teach to the talents suitable for learning, this is to learn to specialize, so the Mohists can make exquisite tools to help farmers and craftsmen, and can also use the art of war to assist weak countries against strong countries, For example, when the Chu State attacked the Song State, it could do the things of Confucius, educate the people of the world, and let them have practical talents.

At this point, Confucius is inferior, Confucius is more concerned about the change of ideas, teaching his own doctrine, and Mozi is the most practical knowledge in the world and the concept of Mohist together to pass on to his disciples, Mojia children all have a skill, or long in martial arts, or long in literature, or long in work, or long in agriculture, or long in business, compared with the pure scholarship of Confucianism, Mohist is more practical, and Mozi's teaching method, is more respected by the teachers of ministers and ministers.
