896. Ding 2

Duanmu Baolian shook her head, thought for a while, and finally couldn't help but said: "I don't understand. I heard that King Zhou, even if he doted on beauties, why did he build wine pools and meat forests? Is it just for drinking anytime and anywhere?

Is this something that doesn’t taste good? In other words, the wine in ancient times was different from now. The wine at that time tasted very good?”

"At that time, all wines were made from pure grains." Feng Tang said, "I estimate that they may not taste as good as today's wines."

"Being an emperor is boring!" Duanmu Baolian shook her head. She really couldn't understand what was so good about this wine. It wasn't as delicious as ice cream at all. I heard that getting drunk would give you a headache.

Those emperors who liked drinking in ancient times must have been very stupid. They did not do so many fun things, but they just liked drinking?

"Pauline, the Shang Dynasty was a slave country. At that time, the productivity was very backward. Many slaves could not even eat enough to eat, and wine needed grain to brew. The King of Shang was unethical and did not care about the life and death of the people. He ordered people to brew a large amount of wine. But

In order to satisfy his own selfish desires, he eventually destroyed the country." Mo Qingyi said with emotion, "This wine is indeed not a good thing."

"At that time, there was no common people's opinion." Feng Tang suddenly said.

"Huh?" Mo Qingyi was stunned. Didn't anyone have any explanation?

"The common people's opinions should only come from the Qin Dynasty." Feng Tang thought for a while and then said, "Historical records are mostly rumoured, and the Shang Dynasty did not have specific written texts, so the records are not detailed."

"Don't all the bronze vessels unearthed in the Shang Dynasty have inscriptions on them?" Mo Qingyi was stunned. He also liked antiques, especially ancient jade, so he was quite familiar with the antique industry.

"At that time, writing was in the hands of the nobles." Ximen Mingyue interjected, "The life and death of ordinary people was really not a big deal to those high-ranking nobles. The demise of King Shang was just the result of Xibohou's desire to seize the hegemony of the world.

Just status

, there is no other reason. He committed the crime of seizing the position of the overlord of the world. In order to find an excuse for himself, King Zhou made all kinds of unsavory remarks. For the nobles at that time, wine ponds and meat forests were really not a big deal.

Xiao Tang, right?"

"To what?" Feng Tang asked back.

"Okay, let's put it this way -" Ximen Mingyue said deliberately, "I know that there is a king in history who is more cruel than him, and that person is so generous."

Feng Tang suddenly knew what Ximen Mingyue wanted to say, and immediately rolled his eyes at him without saying anything.

"There have been many dissolute emperors in history." Mo Qingyi said with a smile, "But there are very few who are more cruel than King Zhou."

"Mr. Mo, you don't know something. There are records of dissolute and immoral emperors in history. For example, the soft-hearted emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty, who was very fond of Baolian, because he only liked poetry, calligraphy and painting, he eventually led to the subjugation of his country.

The fate of being captured, right? The same goes for Li Yu, the empress of the Southern Tang Dynasty. It's pitiful. It would be fine if these two were born in a peaceful and prosperous age and became Princes of Anle. These two people can't be said to be so debauched and unethical." Ximen Mingyue said.

said.

"These two are just born at the wrong time." Duanmu Baolian heard what Ximen Mingyue said, and immediately said with emotion, "It would be fine if they were born in a peaceful and prosperous age and became princes. And the point is, such princes
