Chapter 37 The Great Master of Confucianism

(Thanks to the rewards from the crow book friends who have fed back...)

Liu Shengzhi now has a huge gap in talents under his command. Even if he has the aristocratic families and talents from Guanzhong, Jingzhou and Shu.

But the gap in talent is still incredible.

You should know that what Liu Shengzhi was preparing to rebuild was a powerful regime like a great man who had been deeply involved in the village.

It is not the model of the imperial power not going to the countryside after the Ming and Qing dynasties...

Why did the productivity, national strength and population size far surpass that of the Han and Tang dynasties after the Ming and Qing dynasties?

But the ability to mobilize war is getting weaker and weaker?

During the Qin and Han dynasties, hundreds of thousands of troops were mobilized to carry out expeditions.

In the Ming and Qing dynasties, such battles could be held in a careless manner in the early stages. In the later stages, a large army of 100,000 or 200,000 would be mobilized to drag down the entire court...

The reason is that the state controls the grassroots level.

The Qin and Han dynasties were able to collect taxes to every citizen, but in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the county magistrate could only manage the county town. Except for the county town, he was completely shady and relied on the autonomy of the gentry...

The number of officials required in this way is naturally extremely large. In this era, the popularity of knowledge and culture is a coffee table filled with tragedy.

There are so many scholars in Liangzhou, which are extremely valuable assets for any regime that is determined by long-term stability...

Furthermore, there is the power of Confucianism and Taoism...

You should know that the land of Liangzhou is different from later generations. In this era, it was a place where the Han family had an absolute advantage in population. During the Ping Dynasty of the Western Han Dynasty alone, there were 71,270 households and more than 280,000 people in the four counties in Hexi.

By the time Tuoba Tao arrived, he was able to migrate 30,000 people. Just this can be seen that there were so many Han people here.

Throughout the Han Dynasty, Liangzhou's economy and culture were very developed. Liangzhou's aristocratic families were known for their Confucianism.

After the Five Barbarians invaded China, wars spread throughout the Central Plains. Wars continued, while the Hexi region was orderly and prosperous. It was a place for people in Zhongzhou to take refuge, and it was also a place for refugees to migrate. It was inevitable that the disputes and turmoil for more than a hundred years were inevitable. However, compared with Hebei and Shandong who had experienced great chaos, it was slightly better.

Since the Han Dynasty, the Hexi region, especially Dunhuang, has been a place of cultural prosperity, and literati and scholars have long emerged in large numbers. However, the royal family of the Western Jin Dynasty was in chaos and the Zhongzhou was in trouble. From the earliest Zhang Gui went to Liangzhou to protect the country and the people, establish culture and education, and select talents, it has made great contributions to the local cultural development of Liangzhou.

During the Yongjia Rebellion, the scholars and officials in the capital realized that the world was in chaos, and the country that was refuge was the only country of Liang and Turkey. After the Jianxing Rebellion, King Sima Bao of Jin was defeated. More than 10,000 people were scattered and destroyed in Liangzhou.

A large number of common people in the Central Plains lived in Liangzhou, which greatly increased the number of scholars in Hexi, and finally, in this remote area, connecting the Western Regions, preserved the most complete inheritance of culture and Confucian Taoism since the Eastern Han Dynasty.

This is necessary to conquer the world immediately, but it is far from enough to govern the world.

Although Jiangzuo also preserved relatively complete cultural etiquette, metaphysics was prosperous and Confucian Taoism almost disappeared.

In this era, whether it is Guanzhong or Shandong, although it is not a cultural desert, at most, only a few aristocratic families have become cultural islands...

How is it possible to rebuild a unified empire without cultural soft power to support it?

More importantly, Liu Shengzhi needs the support of Confucianism inheritance.

Anyway, the Han Confucianism is the Confucianism that is closest to religion! It will definitely not be as incompatible with Buddhism in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Just as I was thinking about this, I saw a Confucian scholar in his forties with a rosy complexion slowly coming. A stern and solemn aura that was indescribable and unexplained was already coming to my mind.

"So amazing!" Liu Shengzhi exclaimed slightly, and had already recognized that this was exactly what Confucianism calls majesty.

But Liu Shengzhi has been in this time and space for so long, and it is the first time that he has truly seen such Confucian dignity. He is really a Confucian master!

Without further ado, Liu Shengzhi already knew who this person was. He took two steps forward and should give a tribute first: "The last student to Liu Shengzhi, I have met Mr. Xuan Chu!"

If Liu Shengzhi recognized him well, this person should be Liu Xuan. It was also the master of Liangzhou Confucianism and his leader of this generation.

Liu Xuan hurriedly flashed by, not daring to accept such a great courtesy as Liu Shengzhi, and said, "Why should your Majesty be so polite? I dare not take it!"

After hearing this, Liu Shengzhi felt relieved and things were done!

If Liu Xuan has no intention of cooperating, how can he be willing to surrender?

But he smiled and said, "Mr. Xuan Chu is a great master of Confucianism, and his juniors have admired him for a long time!"

This means that although I am the emperor of the Han Dynasty and the leader of Taoism, I am also a Confucian.

There was a glory in Liu Xuanchu's eyes. Looking at Liu Shengzhi carefully, he was not old. But he had always been calm and composed.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. This Han emperor was so calm and gentle. Who knew that he was quite proud in his heart?

Liu Shengzhi knew clearly that as long as a letter was sent, Li Qing would lead the army to cooperate with all the actions of the Han army.

However, Liu Shengzhi did not do this. Instead, he used his own strength to easily conquer Jincheng County and forced Juqu Mengxun to surrender.

This not only shows the strength of the Han army in front of them, but also shows the pride in Liu Shengzhi's bones...

However, Liu Xuan then laughed. He was so busy that he swept the * master of the overlord who was the heroic master who had no such domineering power, how could he be convinced and followed?

Since Yongjia crossed south, the world has been in chaos for more than a hundred years.

Over such a long time, people doubt that the world will never be peaceful again. But they never thought that the young Han emperor in front of him would create a flame again!

But the plan of the great god Tude and King failed again!

Humph, there are only three things! Liu Xuanchu sneered in his heart. This great god has failed more than twice.

All the gods and humans in the world suffered disasters, and their luck retaliated, and the underworld collapsed, and the great god himself fell into a deep sleep.

Since I don’t have the ability, I have to change people!

If the world continues to be in such a turmoil, the entire Dongtu Shenzhou will be in danger! And the Confucian and Taoist traditions are even more in danger of being cut off!

Thinking of this, Liu Xuanzhu couldn't help but bow his head and said, "I am a Han official. Your Majesty wants to use me, but it's just an edict!"

Liu Shengzhi laughed: "Thank you, Mr. Xuan Chu. Since that's the case, I will give Mr. Xuan Chu the Grand Tutor and General of the Military Advisor to follow me. I will give advice for me and supervise me at all times!" (To be continued.) Mobile users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
