Chapter 21 The Difference Between People
While the coalition forces were thinking about how to deal with Lu Bu's threat, Li Ru on Dong Zhuo's side also resumed his usual world-beating style under Dong Zhuo's intermittent illness. momentum.
The decadence of the Luoyang period was swept away, and the whole person became inspired.
Did Dong Zhuo really restore the heroic spirit of the Xiliang warriors? I don’t know, maybe it’s just an intermittent attack.
The corruption of the Guanzhong family is not something that Dong Zhuo, who has not experienced the education of a family member, can easily get rid of.
What's more, it's not certain whether he is willing to break away from his miserable life. I'm afraid Li Ru's expectations will be disappointed.
Li Ru, who was in an excited state, planned to let the princes of the world see the gap between them within three months.
Unfortunately, he was in a state of excitement and did not think about whether this was Dong Zhuo's intermittent illness.
It can only be said that Li Ru's observation of Dong Zhuo was covered up by his eagerness and excitement.
Chen Xi is educating Liu Bei on how to help the Han Dynasty, and persuading Liu Bei to accept the recommendation of Kong Rong and Tao Qian and accept the position of Taishan County Sheriff.
But Liu Bei pointed out that there are nearly two million bandits in Qingzhou, and nearly 300,000 Taishan bandits in Mount Tai alone. With just our few people, we can't even make a splash.
Chen Xi asked what Liu Bei’s ideal was and what he wanted to achieve.
Then there must be a foundation for realizing the ideal. Where the foundation is, it is in Qingzhou, a place that has been shattered.
It is the nearly three million Qingzhou soldiers and civilians in Taishan County where Liu Bei is about to take office.
"How should Duke Xuande realize his ideal of supporting the Han Dynasty." Chen Xi asked with a smile.
"It's self-righteous, it's self-righteous" Liu Bei couldn't say the words he always said when recruiting talents.
"Xuan Degong has nothing." Chen Xi whispered about the capital Liu Bei had at this time, but he had nothing.
"I have nothing." Liu Bei said this Only then did he realize that Liu Bei had still accomplished nothing since the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
Although I have been able to sit in the ranks of the Dong princes recently and sit among the elites in the world, I think it is just because of my senior brother's power.
Liu Bei, who had nothing at all, already knew clearly what he should do now.
At least now he has the reputation of sitting among the princes, and he has the most powerful group of generals under his command, and there are countless elites in the world. This is his territory to support the Han Dynasty.
"Please teach me, sir." Liu Bei, who had completely corrected himself, said solemnly to Chen Xi.
“The princes competed for the throne, seeking truth but not fame. There was no meaning in the Spring and Autumn Period for three hundred years, only benefits.”
What are they fighting for in troubled times? What is recorded in the history books It has already been placed in front of everyone, it’s just a matter of seeing who can see through it.
“When your power reaches a certain level, all the rules will change according to the monarch’s will.”
"This is what you have to do next, Mr. Xuande. Only by changing the existing rules can you be qualified to reopen a prosperous age in troubled times."
Chen Xi's education to Lord Liu Bei has also begun to enter a normal state. change. "The emperor's tricks are just a means for a monarch who lacks ability to intimidate his subordinates. If he had enough strength, who would take care of those factions that seek political power and create multiple rivalries in the court? Wouldn't it be better to just be the monarch faction?" < br>
“Don’t be afraid, Mr. Xuande. If there really is a saying that ‘one is commanded by heaven, one will live forever’, why would there be the Yellow Turban Rebellion? Why would Dong Zhuo bring trouble to Luoyang? Why did you come to Hulao? Why did you come to Hulao? It was just that they were ordered by the people, not by heaven. It's just that they want to break away from the people now. They will eventually be destroyed in the hands of the people. "
"The people are like water, and the king is like a boat. Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. It is the reincarnation that has not changed since ancient times." Chen Xi said with hazy eyes.
[Ordered by Heaven, Longevity and Longevity] What factors influence the beginning and end of a dynasty? Is it Heaven?
However, [the way of heaven is unkind and treats all things as stupid dogs], heaven will not care about the rise and fall of dynasties established by humans. In the eyes of heaven, this is just the normal operation of all things in the world, and they will not function without humans. Not going down.
Is the sky a human being? It is the people under the rule of the dynasty. When the people want the dynasty to survive, the power that the people burst out is endless.
There will always be heroes and leaders among the people who can turn the tide. It doesn’t necessarily depend on which region they are from.
The relationship between the ruling class and the people is like water that can carry a boat but also capsize it. When the rulers side with the ruling class instead of the people, a dynasty will be born. A sign of collapse.
"How to win this Taishan County, how to become stronger, how to conquer the world, please teach me Zichuan."
Liu Bei wanted to understand, the experience of the past thirty years came to his mind, and the people wanted to live , but some people don’t want the people to live. What people who can’t live will do is clearly written in the history books.
"Taishan is a good place, and Qingzhou is an even better place. All the aristocratic families there have been shattered, and no one can stop Duke Xuande."
"Three million soldiers and civilians in Qingzhou With a little training, Xuande can rely on him to conquer the world and end the troubled times."
"As long as Xuande can persuade Tao Gongzu to borrow food, after taking Mount Tai, as long as he can plant food, after the harvest, he will devour Qingzhou. Just go with the flow.”
"And except for Qingzhou and Bingzhou, the powerful families in other places are not something you can deal with, Duke Xuande."
"Since Zichuan has this confidence, he is willing to give it a try." Liu Bei did not think too much. , and made up his mind directly.
The powerful aristocratic families are not something he can compete with now. Qingzhou, where there are not many powerful aristocratic families, is his only way out now, and the population of Bingzhou is small.
In ancient times, aristocratic families and powerful people were the gods of the people, and they were also the basis for ancient dynasties to rule the country. When there were not enough grassroots managers trained, aristocratic families and powerful people were the foundation of rule.
As long as there is power and power, aristocratic families and powerful people will have a place to survive, but the way of existence is just different.
In this era, more than 90% of the elites come from aristocratic families, so how many common people can rise from the bottom to the top.
Layer upon layer of knowledge barriers pit the aristocratic families against the common people. The only way for the common people at the bottom to rise is through military merit.
It is undeniable that the Qin and Han aristocratic families really have something. Compared with the Qin and Han aristocratic families that were transformed from the nobility and various schools of thought in the Spring and Autumn Period, they are really much better than the later aristocratic families.
Although the common people are not regarded as equal to their own family. The Qin and Han aristocratic families would at least regard the common people as members of the same lineage as equals, and would also talk about some moral etiquette, but a wealthy family would not tell you these things.
What is the biggest difference between people, IQ? constitution? Science tells us that there is not much difference. What is different is the amount of knowledge a person has or the amount of resources he has.
Why is the circulation between the upper and lower classes blocked? Desire, greed, and human nature.
Who is the figure hanging on the street lamp?
