Chapter 1903 By analogy, the conclusion of tyranny


    August has already entered Zhongqiu.


    After the hot summer, the weather gradually entered the chill.


    When the golden leaves fall quietly in the wind, who would immediately realize that the severe winter is coming? Just like when the people in Guanzhong are facing a bumper harvest, who would think of the hardships encountered in other regions?


    Fei Qian was lazily watching the fallen leaves drifting down in the small courtyard. On the table were several reports that came and went...


    These things are not urgent, so Fei Qian can also deal with them more leisurely.


    Fei Qian did not expect that the one who opened the door to his native religion in the snowy area turned out to be the elixir that made Fei Qian dismissive before, so when Fei Qian saw this report, he didn''t know what to do for a while. what to say. Pills are not a good thing. All the emperors who used pills in the past can testify to this point. In comparison, Buddhism is a bit of a thief. For example, only talk to the emperor about things like Zen and joy...


    It seems wrong, Buddhism also seems to have elixir.


    Is there any?


    No?


    Sometimes just thinking so boringly is also a kind of happiness. After all, all kinds of things are entangled in chaos, and it is rare to have some time that belongs to Fei Qian''s private space, like now.


    However, the time of happiness is always short, and more time is spent in various things, perhaps troubles, difficulties, or helplessness.


    Cai Yan officially stood on the stage some time ago, and then attracted a large number of ladies from Guanzhong and Hedong to kill Zhiyinjian, and some came from Longyou and Hanzhong, and the youngest one selected was Xin Xianying …


    Regarding the matter of Zhi Yinjian, there was a lot of disturbance, and it was very lively, but many people also thought it was just a lively scene. After all, so many days have passed, Cai Yan did not say what specific things he would do, unlike Wei from the Senate At the very beginning, it was embedded in the Han law, and the revision of the law on corruption has attracted so much attention.


    Everyone likes to take advantage, maybe this "who" is not used properly, but most of the officials in the Han Dynasty, one said one, and there were not many who were dedicated to the public, devoted themselves to the public, and died. Even Brother Zhu, who has been deified, suppresses the Chuanshu faction and supports the Jingxiang faction. If he really has peace in his heart, why would he do this? Leaving Qishan is not only for the great Han Dynasty, but also has the intention of controlling the military and political power and not letting go.


    As far as Fei Qian himself is concerned, he is also selfish.


    So when Wei Duan immediately began to sort out and revise the laws of corruption, the focus of the gentry''s children naturally shifted to the past, and some people even secretly poked left and right, as if they were suddenly opened The ants in the ant nest on the cover lost their sense of security, ran around and collided with each other''s antennae, exchanging news.


    When the subordinates are tossed, the leader is free.


    Fei Qian has been relatively leisurely these few days, and even had time to take Huang Yueying with her, and wandered around Chang''an City twice in casual clothes.


    Now Chang''an is naturally full of vitality. For the decoration of the general ceremony, a lot of decorations have been left behind. They are ostentatious in the city, adding a bit of color and joy, and the shops on both sides of the street are also full of people coming and going. , and some seem to be expanding, building bamboo and wood hands and feet, and workers in twos and threes are busy up and down.


    Overall, Fei Qian is quite satisfied. Fei Qian can''t take care of everyone''s life and death, but under Fei Qian''s best protection, at least Chang''an is not as corrupt as Luo Yang...


    Prices are generally stable.


    Fei Qian took Huang Yueying and bought some small things. Of course, Fei Qian did not go to the very crowded market, mainly because he was worried about safety issues. On ordinary streets, the guards could take care of them more or less. It is difficult to ensure safety when caught in the crowd.


    Huang Yueying looked very excited. Although she was already a mother of a child, she was still very cute like a crazy girl. She bought this and that, and bought a lot of them here and there.


    Huang Yueying didn''t care much about those things, so after returning to the mansion, Huang Yueying sent a few to the east, rewarded a few to the west, and even sent some to Cai Yan. On the bright side...


    Feiqian shook his head and smiled, forget it, this is pretty good.


    A family has a family environment, and a society has a social ecology. Fei Qian sat in the courtyard, basking in the lukewarm mid-autumn sun, involuntarily recalling the things he had done these days in his head, going through them one by one.


    Hi, I was born to work hard!


    When Fei Qian suddenly realized that he started to think about these annoying things again, he couldn''t help but scolded himself, but what should be thought about was still to be thought about, because if Fei Qian didn''t want to think about it, not many people would really think about it , let alone promote implementation.


    On Feiqian''s table, there are several reports, one of which is sent by the snow area.


    Fei Qian picked up a pen and approved two lines of words on the report in the snow area, asking the Baiyi Museum to set up a project and assign personnel to study the follow-up problem of deworming with pills.


    Perhaps an official of the Han Dynasty would either file it or laugh it off when faced with such a report on the snow area. Most of them would not see any special problems from it, let alone Fei Qian. The divergent thinking connection immediately transferred the direction of this report to the Baiyi Museum to set up a deworming project.


    Parasitic diseases are not unique to later generations, and it is not just ordinary people who die from parasitic diseases. The understanding of parasites in this era is not very clear, and it is even because of the military health regulations implemented by Fei Qian that the current diseases and parasites in the Hussar Army are not so serious.


    If it is said that the people of later generations traveled to ancient times with their physical bodies, they were activated biochemical weapons, then ancient parasites were the big killers that could completely eliminate biochemical weapons, and there was no cure for them. If any traveler accidentally takes a sip of cold water and steps into a puddle, there is a chance of being infected with parasites, and then...


    In the Han Dynasty when there was no corresponding insecticide and anthelmintic, the only option is to wait for death!


    Of course, most water sources are still fine, especially in the north, but in the south, in history, whether it is Prime Minister Cao or Zhu Geliang, they have personally practiced and proved the horror of parasites.


    Speaking of which, is it possible that Prime Minister Cao’s migraine is also a parasite? After all, Cao Cao also stayed in Chibi in history, and it is possible to be infected with parasitic diseases...


    In the Han Dynasty, parasitic diseases were generally classified as plagues. Of course, from a certain point of view, they were indeed somewhat like plagues, as difficult to prevent and cure.


    Therefore, in another report, Fei Qian also did anti-epidemic treatment for a group of Yellow Turban thieves who surrendered in Runan, and then reorganized them.


    When seeing this report, Fei Qian couldn''t help feeling a little bit emotional. The fall of this group of yellow scarf thieves in Runan represents that the role of the whole big man who has led the chaos since the first year of Zhongping has finally left. There are no more yellow scarves in the big man.


    Ambition, or better-sounding, is ideal, or it is more advanced, called subjective initiative, and it is very likely that a person, or a group of people, can finally do those things and reach that height.


    What determines the lower limit is rules and restraint. Those things can be done, and those things can''t be done. It''s not about killing and doing as you want. When there is no lower limit for a person or a group of people, there is often no higher limit.


    Although this statement cannot be said to be completely correct, it also reflects some truths.


    At least in the chaos of the Yellow Turban Thieves, countless people were incited, and then they would only shout "Heaven is dead, Huang Tian should stand", but they don''t know what they should do, or where the road is , yelling "Li" in his mouth, but destroying all the "Li" in his hands.


    Throughout the history of China, many peasants revolted, perhaps because of famine, plague, tyranny, etc., and then someone raised their arms and shouted, tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of people rose up like locusts, sweeping the world, but eating After the light was gone, it gradually fell silent.


    Obviously, the three brothers of the Zhang family may have some hazy ideas in the early days of the outbreak of the Yellow Turbans, but they were just ideas, and they did not find a way to go on. The three brothers of the Zhang family may have also proposed the concept of equal rights on the ground, but what they didn''t even believe in, ended up being nothing, and it became a dispute between "heaven and yellow sky".


    Because in the context of feudal society, if you want to compete for the throne, then there is only one opponent, but if you want to average wealth, then there are a group of opponents! Since the people at the lowest level can be incited by the three brothers Zhang Jiao, they can also be incited to go back by the government and gentry. Crowds, no matter ancient or modern, can''t accomplish great things.


    Like the three Liu Bei brothers...


    Fei Qian ordered lightly, "Go and invite Liu Xuande to come here." 』Then signaled the guards to clean up the report writing on the table.


    Liu Bei has been in Chang''an for a few days. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei did not come, they were still in the southwest of Sichuan.


    Fei Qian didn''t meet him right away, but let him hang out for a few days. One reason was that Fei Qian was really busy a while ago, and another reason was that Fei Qian asked Liu Bei to take a look.


    Liu Bei is undoubtedly a person with great ambitions, or to put it nicely, he is a person with strong subjective initiative. This kind of person, if you use it well, it is naturally quite easy to use, but if you don''t use it well, it is also very troublesome.


    So because there may be troubles in the future, why did you choose to hack Liu Bei to death at the beginning?


    It’s like when parents encounter their child’s mischievous crying, they will inevitably feel that this child is really a trouble for their future life, and then simply step forward and strangle him to death?


    Anyway, Liu Bei''s lower limit is not that low. From Xu Shu''s report, Liu Bei at least still thinks he is a Han Chinese, and he still stands on the standpoint of a Han Chinese. At least this point is worth Fei Qian''s further efforts.


    Liu Bei arrived soon, standing outside the pavilion and saluting respectfully.


    Feiqian nodded and asked Liu Bei to sit down.


    『How about Ding Ruo? 』Fei Qian asked someone to bring refreshments, while drinking, he signaled to Liu Bei that you are welcome.


    『Report to Hussars...』 Liu Bei said cautiously, 『Everything is fine in Dingzuo. 』


    "Oh? ’ Fei Qian put down the tea bowl, then tapped lightly on the table twice, and said, ‘Is the iron smelting going well? 』


    "This..." Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, and his eyes couldn''t help but stop on Fei Qian''s face, and then he lowered it again after a few breaths, "A lot of iron ore has been mined, but...good iron is hard to refine..." Well, iron ore is not difficult to mine, but the problem is that it is difficult to smelt and form, and the scrap rate is extremely high.


    『Xuande''s expectation is not bad, this matter has been known for a long time. ” Fei Qian said slowly, “The mine of Dingruo is easy to mine but difficult to refine. Gein is different in quality, and it is also different from the other side. 』


    "what? ! ’Even though Liu Bei’s chest was heavy, he almost jumped up after hearing Fei Qian’s words, and stared at Fei Qian for a long time before sighing, his shoulders drooping a little, ‘Why didn’t the cavalry speak earlier…’


    『If someone had said it earlier, would Xuande believe it? ’ Fei Qian smiled, and signaled the guards to bring some tea to Liu Bei, ‘I’m afraid you suspect someone for profit? 』


    Liu Bei couldn''t answer.


    Fei Qian looked at Liu Bei, and suddenly remembered an article in a textbook when he was a child. Now that he thinks about it again, it has a special flavor.


    『Confucius passed by the side of Mount Tai, a woman mourned over the tomb...』 Fei Qian read slowly.


    Liu Bei was taken aback, what does this mean? But I quickly recalled this passage. Because this passage was not only heard by Lu Zhi when he was in class, but also by Liu Bei himself.


    "...Listen to it in the way of the master, so that Zilu asked him, saying: "My son''s crying is also like a person who is worried." He said: "Yes. In the past, my uncle died of a tiger, and my husband died again. Today My son is dying again." The master said, "Why don''t you go?" Fei Qian continued to read, and then looked at Liu Bei.


    "A tyrannical government is fiercer than a tiger..." Liu Bei arched his hands and said, "Hussars mean that the current tyrannical government is not right?" 』


    Fei Qian laughed, shook his head and said, "If so, why did you call Xuande here?" The big man is harsh on politics, and the world knows it! The emperor hangs empty in the court, and the corpse is poisoned everywhere! Corruption is rampant, and the people are in dire straits! If not, why would the world be in chaos? How can there be the current situation? 』


    Liu Bei swallowed his saliva, what he said is really...


    『Excuse me, Xuande, Master asked women, did you know about tyranny? Or have you known the disadvantages of tyranny for a long time? ’ Fei Qian asked.


    『This…』 Liu Bei pondered for a moment, then said, 『It must have been known for a long time about the disadvantages of tyranny...』


    Fei Qian nodded, and said: "Now that you know it, how can Master know why?" 』


    "This...or know it..." Liu Bei replied.


    Feiqian continued: "Know what it is, know why it is, how can you know what to do?" What if there are new disadvantages? It is like the iron of steadiness, how about the desire of Xuande? 』


    Liu Bei was so confused for a moment that he was speechless.


    Liu Bei knew that this master who exclaimed that "tyranny is fiercer than a tiger" was actually an example Fei Qian used to compare himself...


    Liu Bei lamented the injustice of the big man, lamented the stupidity of the court, and lamented a lot, but did he deeply understand the reasons behind these "injustice" and "fatality" behind these sighs, and even went further, but did something, To change these "injustice" and "faintness"?


    Confucius sighed on the side of Mount Tai, his deafening voice said, "Fierce than a tiger, fiercer than a tiger...", with a gesture of compassion, he boarded the car and left after a sigh of relief. As for whether there was any help because of pity for the woman''s misery, there is no record, so I dare not guess randomly.


    Then did the Master take any action to change the "tyranny"?


    Yes, but relatively few.


    Among the government reforms made by Confucius in the State of Lu, there are two that can be praised more emphatically. One is to open a private school, to pass on the knowledge that was originally passed down at the aristocratic level, and the other is to promote the three capitals, which is to reduce the power of the three princes in the state of Lu, but no matter what Whether it is a private school or a private school, Confucius has a beginning and an end.


    Halfway through the private school, Confucius ran away. Those who could follow Confucius wandered along, and those who had no capital naturally stopped their studies. As for the three capitals, only two were established, and the remaining one was difficult to deal with. He also gave up.


    Youdao means nothing is difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to give up.


    Confucius admonishes his own students to learn from the sea and work hard, and at the same time turn to it immediately when encountering difficulties, saying that the time is gone, rituals and music are broken, and it is beyond human power...


    Logically speaking, Confucius claimed to be "not confused", saying that he had a clearer understanding of various problems in life, and he was the chief military officer of the State of Lu, taking pictures of his relatives, and then executed Shao Zhengmao on seven days and exposed his corpse for three days , So Lu Guo Dazhi, and then under such a background, the implementation of "Sandu" should have a good result, but in the end it was abandoned halfway.


    The places where Liu Bei is really in charge are Gaotang and Pingyuan.


    Gao Tang started from Gao Tang Wei to Gao Tang Ling, logically speaking, there should be some emotions? In order to join the Suanzao League, Liu Bei mobilized all the soldiers and left, and Gaotang was defeated by the bandits immediately.


    Pingyuan, even the assassins praised Liu Bei''s benevolence, but for Kong Rong, Liu Bei also came out with all his strength, and never returned to Pingyuan...


    So, to Liu Bei, those ordinary people in Gaotang and Pingyuan who are looking forward to having a good official are what? Is it like the woman under Mount Tai?


    Does Liu Bei have ambitions? Is there a way?


    Both.


    But what...


    When Dong Cheng approached Liu Bei, things were indeed very difficult. Liu Bei felt unreliable, so he ran away without saying a word. Tao Qian entrusted Liu Bei with all his wealth and family, but the situation was wrong, and seeing that it was difficult to make a comeback, Liu Bei ran away again. Liu Biao entrusted Liu Qi to entrust him. Seeing that Chuan Shu was too attractive, Liu Bei couldn''t help but leave Liu Qi and ran away...


    If Fei hadn’t set up a trap in Sichuan and Shu, and it happened to be restricted by the special terrain of Sichuan and Shu, I’m afraid Liu Bei would run away if he wasn’t careful…


    It’s fine if it’s other princes, but it’s just such an image that hangs benevolence in front of him every day, and seems to be pleading for the people all the time.


    Whether to continue to hang the signboard of benevolence, thinking about where to get some here and where to grab it all day long, or to abandon those unrealistic ideas before, do some things well, and insist on doing one thing well, It depends on how Liu Bei chooses next.


    Fei Qian asked Liu Bei to step down first, and then think about it and see for himself. If Liu Bei is obsessed, Fei Qian doesn''t mind letting Liu Bei stay in Dingze, dig mines for a lifetime, and repair the earth for a lifetime!
