Spoiling History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 187 The Romance of Wei and Jin Dynasties

Kong Ming could clearly see the sad look on Wei Yan's face.

But Kong Ming is more open-minded:

Why does the editor have to be so pretentious? Even without me, the Sima family still deserves what they deserve. The powerful family is still destroyed, and its shame has been passed down for thousands of years.

Prime Minister Zhuge has tried his best, and you and I should follow suit now.

Wei Yan had mixed feelings in his heart, and finally he surrendered to Kong Ming.

In the end, Kong Ming took a deep look at the long list of entries about the XX Rebellion and remembered it in his heart.

He once wanted to help his lord rule the world and recreate a prosperous age of strong men, but now he wants to create a new Han Dynasty that can rival the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

And in this process, the first thing to do is to eliminate the troubles caused by the family and prevent the people from encountering such troubled times.

Li Shimin burst into laughter again:

Luo Shui farted? There are quite a lot of fantastic ideas in this future life!

King Xuan of Jin, isn't it just a fart to go back on his word?!

The words were vulgar, and the officials were helpless, but no one objected, and many of them had looks of approval on their faces.

After all, as the light curtain has said, His Majesty is Sima Jin's biggest little heiress.

They Zhenguan ministers must follow His Majesty's footsteps closely and also be Sima Jin's little black men.

As for Erfeng, he, Sima Jin, is also justified.

As Guangmu said, the emperor's golden words, but you have sworn and still regretted it, aren't you slandering the emperor's reputation? As a result, I am also affected!

Later, about the extravagance of a wealthy family in troubled times, Li Shimin only looked at it lightly and no longer thought highly of it.

What is the use of extravagance? It’s just that it will last forever, and when it comes to extravagance, who can be as extravagant as Yangdi?

And just when Li Shimin was thinking this, Guangmu also very cooperatively talked about Yangdi.

[This extravagant style of the aristocratic family can even be said to have destroyed the Sui Dynasty. Xu Shi Shuo records such a story:

During the Tang Dynasty, one night Erfeng decorated the palace with lanterns and decorations, then invited Queen Xiao over and asked: How does my Tang court compare to the Sui Lord?

This Queen Xiao was not the one who carried out reforms in the Liao Kingdom, but was the queen of Yang Guang. Faced with Erfeng's boast, Queen Xiao smiled and did not answer.

Erfeng was anxious and asked again and again, so Queen Xiao said: Yang Guang is the king of the subjugation of the country, and your majesty is the founder of the foundation. There is no point in being more luxurious and frugal.

But Erfeng was still unconvinced and asked what happened to Yang Guang? In what way am I inferior to him?

Empress Xiao described it: On New Year's Eve, dozens of bonfires as high as mountains would be burning in front of the palace. Each bonfire could burn several carts of agarwood, and spices such as Jia Jian would also be thrown into it. The flames would be several feet high. , the fragrance lingers for dozens of miles.

In one night, two hundred carts of agarwood were burnt, and two hundred stones of armor were burnt. There was no fire in the palace, but orbs were hung outside to reflect the light.

Your Majesty, the firewood is burned in front of your palace, and the anointing oil is burned in the palace. To be honest, the smoke from the fireworks is a bit irritating to the eyes.

Erfeng was blocked and could not speak. He said that Yang Guang was extravagant, but he was envious of him in his heart.

However, this story should be somewhat private. First of all, Yang Guang's luxury is definitely true, but Erfeng's ability to remember everything in his mind is a bit ridiculous.

To be honest, Empress Xiao went through many wars and was rescued by Erfeng from the Turks. It is not an exaggeration to call her a savior. She would not be so hostile to Erfeng.

Then you will probably understand if you take a quick look, The Theory of Sustaining the World was written in the Northern Song Dynasty. The author Kong Pingzhong was an official descendant of the Kong family. He was the head of the three Kongs at that time and had an outstanding reputation.

Erfeng himself is a well-known black man from Shandong, so it seems unlikely that a book written by a Shandong person would say good things about Erfeng.

Putting aside these grievances and grievances, when you return to Yang Guang, you will find that many of his styles are actually no different from those of the aristocratic family. For Yang Guang, the way to govern the world is still to use the mentality of powerful men to govern the manor, and not to treat the common people as human beings.

And Emperor Yang Guang was not the eldest son, so how did he come to power? Pretend not to like luxury to please dad.

How was the former prince Yang Yong deposed? In addition to the false accusation, the biggest reason is also because Yang Yong himself has a lustful nature and loves luxury, which is disgusted by Yang Jian.

Related to the customs left over from the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Yang Guang and Yang Yong are relatively normal. After all, it is normal for Tianhuang nobles to be lustful and extravagant, right?

Yang Jian, who opened the Sui Dynasty, was an outlier himself. He married a wife, lived a frugal and simple life, and engaged in agriculture to stabilize the economy with people's livelihood.

The result was unexpected. Yang Guang did not have the skills of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty but contracted the disease of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

The Sui Dynasty, which had an infinitely good start, was completely wiped out by having a high vision but a low hand. 】

Your Majesty, why don't you let me arrange to send the Xiao family out of Chang'an and find another place?

Changsun Wuji offered his words.

Li Shimin was speechless, shook his head and said:

How can you feel guilty because of such nonsense?

In my heart, I became more and more disgusted with the Song Dynasty. Even if the emperor died, the literati were like a nest of snakes and rats:

The words of a villain can be found to be false by future generations, so why should you care?

So Changsun Wuji said no more.

Moreover, the vision of this disciple of the Kong family is like that of an idle man from the Tian family.

Li Shimin happily accepted the title of Shandong's black man:

What kind of thing do I envy Emperor Yang? I envy him for destroying the Sui Dynasty. Or do I envy him for imitating Hu Hai and causing the death of the second generation of the Sui Dynasty?

The Kong family from Shandong is so mediocre that he can call him three holes, which makes people laugh.

The evaluation of the light curtain is even more complacent:

Emperor Yang of the Han Dynasty imitated Han Wu as if he were imitating the emperor. Taizong of the Tang Dynasty can stand shoulder to shoulder with Han Wu.

It's almost as if Emperor Yang is a long way behind his two phoenixes!

Therefore, Li Shimin became more tolerant and even issued an edict on the spot:

Mr. Xiao has been in Chang'an for a long time. She was given a palace talisman and gold and silver. She can enter the palace and talk about the past with Concubine Yang in her spare time to relieve her loneliness.

Concubine Yang was the concubine married in the second year of Wude. She was the daughter of the Xiao family and gave birth to two sons, Ke and Zhen.

Because of this connection, Li Shimin became more and more contemptuous of this record.

Confucius can be called a literary sage, but how come his descendants are all people who stick to ancient rituals?

Everyone in the Chengdu government office understood it between the lines:

Liu Bei just felt his head was heavy:

The Sui Dynasty also died in the second generation? The Southern and Northern Dynasties were a little too chaotic.

At this moment, he sincerely wanted Guangmu to digress as usual so that they could sort out this chaotic situation.

Zhang Fei was very interested:

This emperor's family is really different when he is corrupt. He is a little more wealthy than that wealthy family.

Then he asked Pang Tong:

Military advisor, do you think Li Tang was envious of Emperor Yang, so he raised an army to take over the world?

Kong Ming shook his head:

You can be called Yang by defying nature and abusing the people, being cruel to the government, being ruthless and unjust, and living in a desolate country.

Moreover, there are so many beautiful posthumous titles in later generations. For Yang Guang to be given the posthumous title, he must be really angry and resentful. How could it be such a trivial matter?

Even Kong Ming was curious from the bottom of his heart: The deeds of Lu Yanggong and Song Yanggong in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods are unknown. What did Emperor Yang do to deserve such a rare posthumous title?

Liu Bei also agreed with Kong Ming's opinion. After all, among other things, Erfeng Emperor really envied him for his fighting skills.

If I had the ability of Erfeng to lead an army, would I be defeated in Yiling?

After the brief fantasy time ended, Liu Bei also frowned:

How come this descendant of the Kong family still writes books and arranges heroes?

Perhaps you really have a grudge. Kong Ming could only guess this.

After all, the light curtain said that these two phoenixes were from the Shandong area.

The prejudices of emperors can last for decades.

And it is easy for the prejudice of a talented and sage emperor to cause disaster for hundreds of years.

[Infinite extravagance is just a manifestation of the depravity of the family.

On the other side is the collective degeneration of the cultural elite.

Confucianism, which was contrary to the society at that time, was completely abandoned, and these cultural elites began to respect Zhuang Lao.

Zhuangzi Commentary co-authored by Xiang Xiu and Guo Xiang carried forward Zhuangzi's philosophy and was a peak in the history of ancient Chinese philosophy.

However, the general academic community believes that it is also a step back, because this kind of thinking believes that the world already exists and people are redundant.

Thus the metaphysics of the Wei and Jin Dynasties was formed. What is metaphysics? It is secluded among all kinds of people and cannot be seen in form.

In human terms, it is all-encompassing and empty.

To put it more simply, as long as you think about it, you can do whatever you like.

The more famous one is Liu Ling from The Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove.

When a guest came to visit, Liu Ling was naked to greet the guest. The guest was frightened because he had never seen such a fight before. He didn't understand why he was so honest with her?

Liu Ling was naked and spoke righteously: I treat the world as a house and the house as pants. Why do you come into my crotch?

Another very representative celebrity is Wang Yan. Basically, he was destined to be the third prince from birth, and his family background lies here.

Wang Yan is not very smart. When he was young, the most famous thing was that he didn't like money. He asked his family to put money beside the bed. Wang Yan rolled out of the bed screaming, as if he had been seriously injured. It mainly focuses on an image. If it were born in modern times, it is estimated that a certain video could easily gain millions of fans.

During the Eight Kings Rebellion, Wang Yan fled with Sima Yue, nominally to attack the Xiongnu Liu family, but in fact he abandoned the emperor and ran away secretly, which was very outrageous.

Later, after Sima Yue died, Wang Yan was a waste and was captured by Shi Le.

Shi Le was studious, and he respected Wang Yan's reputation before, but Wang Yan could only speak abstractly as always.

After only two days of knowing each other, he started to do something: first, he shied away the responsibility and said that Sima Yue had led me astray in my current situation. Then, he put a high hat on Shi Le and said that a hero like you should be crowned emperor!

Everyone in Shile was numb. At this time, he was still following the Liu family as a guest general.

Shi Le shot back: You have been an official in the court since you were a child, and now you have gray hair and are still so ignorant of the world? The world is like this because of you.

Famous people often say that a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall, so Shi Le buried Wang Yan with an earthen wall and killed him.

This was used as a playful response to the romance of the Wei and Jin Dynasties. 】

I went out late and came back late today. I am short of 200 words and will make up for it tomorrow.
