Chapter 305: Zhuge Liang’s Peaceful World

Liu Xie looked at Xu Shu's article and couldn't say he was disappointed. After all, people in this era generally believed that the aristocratic family was reasonable.

The governance of the Han Dynasty is inseparable from the aristocratic families that support it.

Even Cao Cao, who employs people in an eclectic way, still relies on aristocratic families. It just means that while Boss Cao reuses talents from aristocratic families, he will also reuse talents from poor families.

Because they don't know the ridiculous things the family will do in the next hundreds of years.

But Liu Xie is different.

He is a time traveler, and he knows very well what it will be like when the rights of a dynasty are in the hands of a noble family.

Especially the Jin Dynasty established by the Sima family can be said to be a dynasty completely controlled by the family.

And how did the Jin Dynasty perform? I am afraid that anyone who knows history would shake his head helplessly.

Under the control of the aristocratic family, the Jin Dynasty directly became a unified dynasty and completed itself as a regional dynasty.

And because the aristocratic families control the government, the upper-class aristocratic families have no understanding of the sufferings of the people at the bottom.

He even shouted out the ancient saying, why not eat minced meat.

It can be said that the emperors and officials of that era were really incompetent to the extreme.

And why does this happen? It's because the aristocratic family controls the government.

To put it in a very easy-to-understand way, some people are born with a destination that others can never reach.

A child from an aristocratic family, no matter how talented he is, is destined to be a high-ranking official and receive a good salary from birth.

And some people, no matter how hard they try, can never escape the fate of a poor family.

If that's the case, then why are you still working hard? Just choose to lie down.

Especially the children of aristocratic families, they are nobles from birth and will be important ministers of the country in the future. In this case, they have no motivation to fight.

What I think about every day is how to safeguard the interests of the family.

In such a dynasty, there is no way out for the people at the bottom. After all, the walls of the wealthy families are too high.

The final result was the invasion of foreigners, leaving only ten Han people in the north alive.

The Xiongnu, Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Qiang people all regarded the Han people as two-legged sheep.

Since then, the Han nation has completely lost its natural advantage over grassland nomads.

For more than a thousand years, the Central Plains dynasty always faced threats from the grasslands.

Look at the unified dynasties that followed, let’s not mention the other local dynasties.

For example, consider the unified dynasties of Sui, Tang, Song, and Ming.

Strictly speaking, the Yuan and Qing dynasties also had this dilemma, but they just didn't want it to be as obvious as other dynasties.

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, there was the threat of Turks. Once the grassland peoples in the north ran out of food, they would inevitably go south.

Not to mention the Song Dynasty, the Khitan, Xixia, and Jurchens took turns bullying the Song Dynasty. In the end, the Song Dynasty was destroyed by the Mongols.

Not to mention the Ming Dynasty, the entire dynasty has been at odds with the Mongols in the north.

Some people may say, what about the Yuan Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty?

Unfortunately, although I don’t want to admit it, I still have to admit that after these two dynasties took over the Central Plains, they were also led astray by the Han people who had lost their national crest.

Let’s not talk about the attitudes of these two dynasties towards the Han people. Let’s first talk about their relationship with the northern grassland peoples.

During the Mongol and Yuan Dynasties, after Kublai Khan proclaimed himself emperor, destroyed the Southern Song Dynasty, and became a new unified dynasty in the Central Plains, the Great Mongol Empire established by Genghis Khan quickly split.

It evolved into the four great khanates. Although there were always fights between these khanates, what they wanted to do most was to defeat Kublai Khan.

This also caused the Central Plains dynasty headed by Kublai Khan to passively pick up the sword to resist.

Thinking about it, it's quite ridiculous that a Mongolian Yuan who made his fortune as a nomad ended up guarding against a khanate that was also a Mongolian.

In the end, after both sides were exhausted from the fight, the Central Plains Dynasty could only pinch its nose and recognize that the other party was an independent khanate.

Regarding this matter, would you try it during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty? Let alone take the initiative to attack the Central Plains Dynasty. It is estimated that the Han army of that era would have defeated it long ago.

How dare you make a fuss like this? After two slaps, I'll ask you if you still want to make a fuss.

Let’s talk about the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Although many people don’t like to see this dynasty (including Code Man).

But theirs is the Central Plains Dynasty. No matter how the Manchu Qing Dynasty ruled the Central Plains region.

Let’s talk about his relationship with the North first.

First of all, it needs to be explained that the Manchu Qing Dynasty became prosperous largely because of the support of the Mongols.

But not all Mongolians supported the Manchus, such as the Jungar Khanate.

From the Kangxi period to the Qianlong period, the war lasted for hundreds of years and never stopped.

Logically speaking, the Central Plains region acquired by the Manchu Qing Dynasty was extremely rich in products and had a much larger population than the Jungar Khanate.

With such basic conditions, even a Zhungeer has been fighting for so many years. It can only be said that those in power are not good enough.

With this condition, let alone Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, you are the three great leaders of the late Han Dynasty, Cao Liusun, and any one of them can push you through.

Therefore, the weakness of later generations for more than a thousand years is all caused by this group of noble families.

Liu Xie felt that since he came to this era, it was impossible for the family to continue to exist.

But it's a pity that people in this era can't see through this at all, and they still think that aristocratic families are the key to rule.

Liu Xie slowly put down Xu Shu's article. He thought about it and felt that after he had Xu Shu in his pocket again, he had to find time to teach Xu Shu properly.

Liu Xie put down Xu Shu's article, turned around and walked to Zhuge Liang's desk, and then picked up Sima Yi's article.

Facing these two stars who were so popular in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Xie felt that he could read their articles together.

Liu Xie first glanced at Zhuge Liang's article, and then he looked at Sima Yi's.

After reading it, Liu Xie felt that he was not feeling well.

This badness does not mean there is anything wrong with Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi's articles.

But it is so well written that after reading it, Liu Xie can only say that he benefited a lot from it.

However, it is impossible to say that there is nothing wrong with it.

I don’t know whether it was really luck or someone’s intention. The questions that Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi got were also “Ping Tianxia”.

It's just that the two of them expressed this issue from different angles.

Let’s talk about Zhuge Liang first. His core is actually using aristocratic families, and then he divides them into different categories.

Wait until the emperor is in control, and then start taking measures to weaken the family's strength.

The advantage of this is that once the emperor regains power, the emperor's reputation will reach a peak.

At this time, the emperor was still young and had enough time to weaken the influence of the aristocratic family.

After all, Liu Xie is only in his teens now. Even if it takes ten years to wipe out the princes, Liu Xie is only in his twenties and less than thirty years old.

Then he would spend another ten years slowly trying to figure it out, using more tolerant means to take back the rights in the hands of the aristocratic family.

At that time, the world had been at peace for many years. Even if the aristocratic families knew that Liu Xie was going to attack them, they had lost the ground for rebellion, and the people would not follow the aristocratic families in rebellion.
