Chapter 959: The flag is withered (Part 2)
As the Taiping Army has gained more and more territory in recent years, more and more things need to be dealt with; Zhou Huaian has also deeply felt and realized why many monarchs from ancient times to the present often wanted to do something when they were young, but after middle age, they often began to become tired and stupid in the historical roots of their history.
After all, letting a person deal with countless internal affairs for ten years really hit people's enthusiasm. Coupled with the increase in age and the decline of energy and physical strength, the monarchs often begin to slack off and become disgusted. This leads to all kinds of right and wrong.
At the same time, they have to divide their time and energy to face the concubines and their children in their harem, respond to and satisfy their demands from their respective positions, and handle corresponding contradictions and competitions with the multiple identities of kings, fathers and husbands; or try to give birth to children as much as possible during their lifetime to ensure more probability and stability of the imperial family.
Otherwise, once the disputes in the harem spread and extend to the outside dynasty through their respective family backgrounds, it will easily turn into party struggles and invasions between the government and the opposition factions, and even lead to fierce turmoil and storms on the throne of the throne, and even some unbearable things like "father, kindness, son, and filial piety".
Therefore, in this relatively depressing and exhausted atmosphere, the so-called harem life can easily fall into a boring cycle of routine affairs. Therefore, except for a few examples, the emperors in history almost always like to constantly store young concubines, and some people have been fighting until the last moment of their lives.
Because they can gain a brief sense of freshness and a sense of accomplishment that satisfy men's possessiveness from these young concubines who have just entered the palace and are relatively simple in their minds; at the same time, they can also introduce more new blood to dilute and break the tension and opposition atmosphere caused by the power struggle.
(About this, Zhou Huaian was also deeply touched after reading the records of the emperors of the Li Tang Dynasty and the miscellaneous notes and documents of others, and learning about the bloody and cruel and darkness implied in it.)
It can also be said that in addition to a few arduous and arduous battles that emerged from the sea of blood, who were a founding emperor who was a talented and stunning emperor; there were only a very small number of Han Wu who stood out in the palace struggles, or Minghuang who competed for the top, and the special cases of the prosperous heroes or the revival masters can continue to maintain corresponding concentration and willpower in national affairs and create a huge foundation.
Despite this, there were still examples of the continuous political struggles in which Emperor Wu of Han was forced to issue a self-criticism and allowed cruel officials to kill the queen and the prince. They could only rely on a new child to inherit the throne, which led to the country's major policies falling into the powerful ministers.
Emperor Minghuang of Tang learned from the lessons of the early palace disputes and killed several sons. In his later years, he favored one person and was tired of government affairs. He handed over the major national affairs to the powerful traitors and jesters one after another, which gave birth to the "Anshi Rebellion" in which the ambition of border towns and made the country in prosperity decline in the prosperous era.
Not to mention that most kings were trapped in disguise cages called the palace from birth. What they could see in their daily senses were only the entire world woven by eunuchs and women. Therefore, it was not until a certain age that they had the opportunity to receive the knowledge and experiences conveyed by foreign ministers in the name of learning, but they were not sure what they had the knowledge and experience of the preachers.
Therefore, in addition to the basic mental skills and power strategies cultivated by the imperial family, they also restricted their vision and cognition in disguise; and this situation continued until they took over the throne and governed the world. Some people were able to get rid of the situation and master the situation in power struggle and game, and became the beginning of a generation of wise monarchs; but more people still became mediocre masters who could maintain the situation by relying on their subordinates, close to officials and relatives.
And under this disguised isolation between the inside and outside, no matter how many delicacies, delicious food, and enjoyment of the sound and color, they will eventually be rejected. Therefore, some kings will focus on and indulge in interests and hobbies in certain fields, and create some historical allusions and anecdotes.
It is common to have a drama like practicing alchemy to seek immortality and eventually killing yourself; even wise rulers like Emperor Taizong of Tang cannot help but stay there; or they are proficient in calligraphy, painting, and Cuju, and then taken to Wuguo City by the whole Hu family to experience the scenery of the northern part of the northern part of the city. For example, Emperor Xizong of Tang, who is known as versatile in modern times and is now traveling to Xichuan, is also the best example.
Of course, some kings' concerns and interests have turned from outside the palace, which has spawned many true and false truths and falsehoods in all dynasties, including adventures about the emperor and his relatives and other private visits to the people, and even legends and allusions about Zhaoyao and the Qinlou Chuguan.
Among them, there are examples of people who are more capable of making trouble, and those who start to travel around the world based on the reasons such as "Fengshan Mountain" and "Sacrifice to the Yellow River".
From the Qin Dynasty, a generation of ancestor dragons who visited the old places of the six countries many times to declare their rule, but eventually died of illness on the way, which led to the demise of the second generation of unification; to the people who played the tactics of the sea of people in Liaodong, played the Liuhe Bancheng outside the border, and played the Dragon Boat in the Water Palace in Jiangnan, and finally the people were full of grievances, but the world was full of homes and could not return, so he could only ask himself in Jiangdu who could get the big head;
Then the biggest military scene in the Ming Dynasty reappeared, role-playing and COS enthusiasts, and created a well-known private amusement place - Emperor Zhengde of the Leopard Room; and the Qing Dynasty Kangxi and Qianlong, who were known to have left countless romantic legends and far-fetched allusions with border areas, were almost nothing more than this.
As a modern man with broad knowledge and a time traveler with thousands of years of experience and lessons, Zhou Huaian will naturally not easily make these mistakes or repeat them. At least he can find the sense of accomplishment that is witnessing and creating a new history from many complicated official duties, as well as the collection and wanton grasp of the sense of accomplishment that changes the fate of others;
In addition, from the back house, he can also find the joy of trying every day through the numerous imagination limits of modern people as daily emotional regulation and mental buffering from women of different shapes and styles. In addition, he has been created and cultivated from scratch, which is relatively advanced than the contemporary military, bureaucrats and talent systems. It is still a long way to go to have a sense of negligence.
Thinking of this, Zhou Huaian's palm was once again accompanied by Hong Yao'er's coquettishness and clear chants, and became more and more simple to understand. As the saying goes, "I advise you not to cherish your golden clothes, and I advise you to be young." Isn't that the scene at this moment? It was not until the girl's sorrow like a peony, and her soft body was relaxed again.
Although this is not the first time I have been so intimate, I am still a shy girl. She still tries to reorganize her clothes and skirts in a way that she looks like she doesn't expect that there is a possibility of being messed up again.
I saw her trembling and her face tides, holding the man's hand, which was still causing trouble, and gasping for a gentle breath, saying:
"In fact, Lang Junguang has subordinates and soldiers, and many wise men are well-received. Why should we ask about our women? I'm afraid it's not because of the suspicion and criticism of interfering in politics..."
"Yao'er, do you think that what you see and hear in front of you is where most public opinion and Shiwang are? In fact, it's true,"
Zhou Huaian continued to hold her intimately and said:
"After all, there are thousands of people in this world who are humble from a family, who are tired of making a living all day long and have no time to take care of themselves, and they have no way to speak out and make demands for themselves... Therefore, the only thing that can be given the opportunity to stand in front of you and me is just the intent."
"These are only because of their good family background, or their origins are higher than others; they also have enough time to study and study the world, and they also have enough knowledge and experience to present their own ideas and cognitions in a concise and express way."
"So, this inevitably makes people feel a illusion that only these people who speak out can basically represent the people in the world. Therefore, as long as they respond and countermeasures are promptly responded to their demands."
"However, this is a huge misunderstanding. People in this generation may be able to represent the appeals of some people in the world, but they do not know that people have selfishness and personal positions, and they also have the instinct to form the common cognition and mutual protection of the vested interest class."
"Therefore, over time, various deviations and fallacies in the relationship between the two are inevitably formed. However, can the superiors really ignore and ignore these silent generals?"
"They just don't have the chance to speak out, or the chance to speak out is just a small person from a gentry and a wealthy family who are forced to represent and distort them. But once they can't bear it and have nowhere to defend, they will also use practical actions (foot) to express their opinions and fight (voting)."
"Therefore, the mild ones are exiled to beg for food and live, while the middle ones are in groups of big eaters, while the fierce ones become the foundation for overthrowing the world, and after great destruction and establishment, they will create a new era of great trend! This is why we have the call for the times to take advantage of the momentum and respond to the will of heaven."
"The dust of the times falls into every citizen, it is a mountain. The fall of the old Li Tang Dynasty was due to the internal and external difficulties that have been inherited in the past dynasties, and also to the extreme arrogance of the superiors, who think that what they can see and hear around them is all the truth and facts in the world;"
"Then, we can only be corrupted little by little in the bureaucratic system that is difficult to repay, and in the false perception of layers of distorted and severe deviations, in the closest people around us and the most trusted subordinates, in the net of lies and rhetoric intertwined, and sit down step by step until the hopeless final moment comes."
"During this period, even if a person who is awake accidentally starts to persuade others, he will naturally be denounced and persecuted because he violates the will of the superiors and even most people are unwilling to face the evasion mentality of cruel reality. This is what we should learn from after establishing a new generation!"
"So, what these people in front of you, or the scholars in the local area, must be correct? What they represent must be all the public opinion and truth? If you do not have the ability to think dialectically, and do not have the channels and means to go deep into the lower class to learn about the real people's livelihood and people's sentiments; then you can only continue to become a few local situations, clay sculptures and wood sculptures that are elevated to a high level!"
"So, even if you are a woman, can't you make up for the loss of family and country and give advice? What is the criticism and praise of a woman's interference in politics? Now our Taiping Army still uses women as officials and officials, so it is possible that there will be women participating in politics in the future and discussing politics!"
"Since you are the group that also contributes and contributes to the Governor's Office, you must have some channels to speak out and express your opinions! Yao'er, since you are my wife and the owner of the back house, you must naturally be an example, and you should take on the responsibility of accepting suggestions and making suggestions..."
"Your husband is sincere and the medicine will definitely live up to you..."
Hearing this, Cao Hongyao struggled to get up and saluted Zhou Huaian solemnly.
Zhou Huaian looked at her with admiration and sighed: In addition to having a calm charm and demeanor, this young lady who came to her because of the need for political marriage, is the greatest benefit of being pure and smart and understanding.
So as long as you can explain the reasons and reasons to her, you will unconditionally obey and cooperate fully, and try to play your role well. This will save you extra time and worry when it comes to processor-related matters.
