Although no specific emperors were mentioned, this sentence mocked many people as soon as it was uttered.

Chinese

Although Lu Zhi had been mentally prepared and knew that the Lu family would not have a good ending after her death, after all, that was how she treated the Liu clan.

But I still felt a little angry when I really heard it. Zhou Bo, Chen Ping and Liu Zhang are all great brothers.

Lu Zhi remembered them in her heart and did not attack them immediately. Instead, she looked at Liu Heng in the palace and said, "It's good to consolidate the throne, but it's really beneath your dignity to be so respectful to a minister."

Liu Heng knew that she was teaching him, and immediately said, "Tai Hou is right, Liu Heng will remember it."

Lu Zhi stared at Liu Heng, wondering how likely it was that he would be brought over to become emperor. Since his strength had been recognized, the people below him probably had no reason to be dissatisfied. As for the Lu family...

Lu Zhi felt a little cold in her heart.

She knew what the Lu family had done under her protection over the years. She had given them wealth and glory for so many years, which was considered to be a reward for their kindness.

Although she didn't know why, when she was in trouble, not many people remembered that she was a member of the Lu family and extended a helping hand.

This was what Empress Lü Zhi, who was in power, was thinking. Empress Liu Bang, who was still in power, also had this thought.

In the past, she would naturally still have to make plans for her son, but now seeing Zhou Jia's carefree and free attitude, she is also tired.

It would be better to assist someone more talented to take over. As for her son, she would just give him an identity to ensure his wealth and glory for the rest of his life. When she dies, she will not be able to take care of her affairs after her death.

Lü Zhi was very stubborn, but also very clear-headed. She never dragged her feet on things she had thought through. She immediately looked at the young Liu Heng and took the initiative to say, "He has some courage and is indeed a good candidate. In this case, why not record Liu Heng under my name and let Your Majesty make him the crown prince as soon as possible, so as to win the hearts of the subjects."

Lu Zhi said this lightly, but the seven-year-old Liu Heng was still a little confused. He never thought that he would have such a powerful future. In just a moment, he caught the attention of his father, whom he hadn't seen for many years, and his mother took the initiative to propose that he be made the crown prince.

Liu Bang was also a little surprised.

But he knew how much Lu Zhi cherished her two children. Over the years, as the other princes grew up, Liu Bang himself actually had the idea of ​​changing the crown prince. But how could Lu Zhi let go? Now she actually took the initiative to bring it up.

When Liu Ying heard his mother's words, he didn't understand why she agreed to make someone else the crown prince.

"Mother, I am the crown prince. Do you want father to depose me? Liu Heng did a good job. Does that mean I did a bad job?"

Liu Ying looked at her in shock.

Lu Zhi looked at Liu Ying with a complicated expression.

Emperor Hui of Han, Liu Ying: [How do Liu Heng's achievements compare to mine? Am I inferior to him?]

Even Zhou Jia didn't say much about him.

Zhou Jia saw Liu Ying's words and guessed that he must be feeling disappointed and dissatisfied, so he said, "Why are you comparing yourself with others? Everyone is different. There is no point in comparing yourself with others.

However, the emperor said, you have done enough, but there is one thing I don't quite agree with, that is, you have set a precedent for selling official positions and titles by allowing people to sell their titles.

You... If the official who went up to the position is a person of good temper, I have nothing to say, but if the person who went up to the position is incompetent but has a particularly bad temper and only wants to extract all kinds of slavery from the people.

"One bad apple spoils the whole barrel. Are you sure that those people can do good things for the people? If there are more people like this in your Han Dynasty, how dark will your court be? Can the people of your Han Dynasty survive? If the people can't survive, won't the peasant uprising break out again?"

Zhou Jia's biggest dissatisfaction was the selling of official positions and titles.

Of course, she was a little jealous. The fact that someone could buy it naturally meant that they had connections and power, but she was jealous because she had nothing.

As for other things, such as the grudges between Liu Ying and Lu Zhi, she didn't want to care about them. This was someone else's family affair and she had no right to say anything.

"Moreover, you have not been in power for very long, only seven years. In addition, Liu Heng and his son have been in power for two consecutive generations, allowing the Han Dynasty to continue to recuperate. Therefore, your presence is not very high, but you can also occupy a place among the kings who maintain the status quo."

It's much better than those who occupy positions among tyrants and prodigals.

Liu Ying, who had already ascended the throne, remained silent for a long time.

Miaomiao briefly explained the situation in the Han Dynasty to Zhou Jia, who was not surprised. "Emotions are always two-way. No matter what kind of feelings they are, the Liu family's affairs are very messy. Don't worry about them."

Just eat the melon, there is no need to get yourself into the quagmire of Han just for eating a melon.

Seeing that she was not in high spirits, Miaomiao stopped paying attention to the Han Dynasty.

"Three months after Liu Heng ascended the throne, he immediately appointed his eldest son Liu Qi as the crown prince based on the advice of his ministers. After that, it became their custom to appoint a crown prince in advance. In the same month, Liu Heng appointed Lady Dou as the empress, who later became known as Empress Dowager Dou."

When talking about Empress Dowager Dou, Zhou Jia naturally thought of the drama from her childhood. It was that drama that made her feel that Lu Zhi was a really bad woman, and Empress Dowager Dou was really a very good woman. However, some of her later actions were not very understandable.

Zhou Jia's thoughts drifted a little far away. In a trance, she seemed to feel someone pulling her sleeve. She looked down and saw it was Long Bao.

He looked at Zhou Jia and asked, "Are you going to bring up Empress Dowager Dou and the others later? Will there be Empress Dowager Xuan?"

He could tell that Zhou Jia really liked Empress Dowager Dou and others.

She seemed to like those people who were keen on power. Although she had a good impression of Empress Changsun and others, her impression was less than that of Lu Zhi and others.

Seeing that their little dragon still cared about them, both Queen Dowager Xuan and Mi Bazi were very happy.

Mi Bazi went straight to show off to Ying Si and Zhang Yi. There were not many people around Queen Dowager Xuan who talked, so she just smiled faintly and said, "Zheng'er is thoughtful."

Wei Choufu said quickly: "Your Majesty is so filial, it is a blessing for the Queen Mother and the Qin Empire."

Queen Dowager Xuan looked at Long Bao on the screen with a smile, "Zheng'er is indeed a blessing, but his personality is different from that of his predecessors."

Oh, I really want to hold you and play with you.

Queen Dowager Xuan was itching to do so.

After watching too many winners, I still think her Xiaolong is better.

Zhou Jia said: "Of course there will be, why would you ask this question?"

Long Bao shook his head and said nothing.

The main reason is that the relationship between Lu Zhi and her son did not seem to be very good, and the relationship between Empress Dowager Dou and her eldest son was not very good either. There were also some cracks in the relationship between Empress Dowager Xuan and Yingji's ancestors in the later period.

So he actually wanted to ask Zhou Jia whether he wanted to bring up all the people in history who had a bad relationship with his son.

Seeing that she was unwilling to talk, Zhou Jia did not force her and continued: "However, as I said before, the imperial power changes, and there are many ambitious people in this world, especially those kings with fiefs. The fiefs have fueled their ambitions and given them the strength to challenge the central government.

The policy of laissez-faire and recuperation implemented in the early Han Dynasty catalyzed the vicious development of these princes. The princes became more powerful, and Liu Heng's accession to the throne caused sharp conflicts among the princes over the succession to the throne.

In the third year of Emperor Wen's reign, that is, in 177 BC, King Liu Xingju of Jibei was the first to launch a rebellion because of the uneven distribution of interests, setting a precedent for kings of the same surname to rebel against the Han Dynasty. Liu Heng sent troops to suppress the rebellion, and Liu Xingju was captured and committed suicide.

Three years later, King Huainan Liu Chang started again, but was discovered by the court before he took any action. Liu Heng seized his throne and exiled him to Shu County, but Liu Chang died of starvation on the way.

Let's go off topic. What do you think of these two things I mentioned? Previously, Zhou was good, and the princes below could come to rescue the Zhou royal family at any time when they were in trouble. But you know the Five Hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, and you said they were traitors and rebels, and you praised the enfeoffment in various ways. Today, we will not talk about counties, but only about enfeoffment. What do you think of this?"

She hasn’t even talked about the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. During the Han Dynasty alone, there were countless rebellions by princes of the same surname.

So who are the people who support feudalization?

Inside the Xianyang Palace, everyone's eyes were on Chunyu Yue.

Ever since Zhou Jia appeared and told them that the system of later generations was derived from the county system, Chunyu Yue had become withdrawn and became more and more taciturn. Now, when he heard Zhou Jia's words, he lowered his head and looked at the ground of Xianyang Palace, as if he had heard nothing, and did not even look at the stolen glances from the people around him.

Liu Ji just shook his head silently. Power is a good thing.

Everyone under the sky had learned their lesson. Every time Zhou Jia said this, it meant she was going to start to argue again, so everyone was very quiet and didn't give her a chance to speak. Seeing her thoughts being seen through by them, Zhou Jia curled her lips.

Not interesting.

“Everyone is talking about how great the princes are, but it seems like everyone has forgotten one thing.

Back then, the Zhou royal family granted fiefs to more than just the Five Hegemons and the Seven Heroes. But in the end, only these Five Hegemons and the Seven Heroes became famous. As for those princes whose names may not even appear in history books, wasn't there a war when they were swallowed up?

Once a war breaks out, the first to suffer are the ordinary people who are powerless. If the princes and nobles are powerful, they may be able to survive, but most people can only become victims of war.

Enfeoffment fosters ambition. The nobles and royal families like it, but the common people have no right to like it or not. After all, their lives are not as important as the lives of the nobles.

In troubled times, human life is worthless."

Zhou Jia sighed.

Even if she appears now, the war-torn times in history are still raging, and countless people have died under the enemy's butcher knife. And in those more stable dynasties, many civilians will still die at the hands of those princes and nobles.

The world itself is not fair.

Longbao, Tiantian, Fengbao and Yinbao are the ones who can understand this the most.

Their moods were much lower.

Chinese

Liu Heng, who had already ascended the throne, began to order people to deal with the rebellion that Zhou Jia mentioned. Looking at the imperial seal in front of him and thinking about how he felt when he ascended the throne, Liu Heng also smiled bitterly.

The desire for power consumes people's hearts.

Zhou Jia said: "The two rebellions were resolved, but the power of the princes has grown so that they have the strength to confront the central government. Some knowledgeable people in the court believe that it is time to solve the problem fundamentally. Jia Yi is a typical representative of this.

I first knew Jia Yi from his book On the Qin Dynasty, and I was really impressed by him."

Her tone became complicated.

The dead recitation memory swallowed up Zhou Jia again.

Thinking back to when she was a student, she was really driven crazy by those long articles. They were hard to memorize and write, and not a single word could be wrong. Now she almost forgot how she managed to memorize all those uncommon characters that were hard to recognize and write.

Thinking of this, she looked at the five little kids around her and suddenly laughed, "You five, remember this person, remember him!"

It will be convenient for you to beat him up when you see him next time!

Five confused faces.

"What about this person?" Tiantian asked puzzledly.

Zhou Jia laughed wantonly and foolishly, "Nothing, it's just..."

Halfway through her words, she stopped smiling, turned her head and looked at them and asked, "Guo Qin Lun... do you also want to learn to recite it?"

Longbao and Tiantian were naturally excluded because they were both from the Qin Dynasty and had already been buried by then.

"Of course we have to learn, but we haven't started formal classes yet." Che Bao said.

Feng Bao and Yin Bao nodded repeatedly, and Zhou Jia's smile disappeared instantly.

Then they won’t be able to take the test.

uninteresting.

but……

They can still experience the long novels of Li Bai, Bai Juyi and others.

But they are also learning ancient Chinese, so they should be able to recite and understand it much faster than them.

Damn it!

Why can’t we let them experience the pain they went through in reciting the text before!

Since the show started, Zhou Jia has finally broken down.

The people under the sky saw that Si Qing's face was a little distorted and he was angry. They didn't understand what was going on.

At this time, Miaomiao came out to explain, and it sounded a bit like gloating.

"Don't worry, everyone. It's just that Jia Yi's Qin Lun needs to be recited in the future, and the host thought of the pain he had when he recited it in the past."

"recite?"

When the scholar was mentioned, he became excited.

They also need to memorize when they study.

Chinese

As soon as Miaomiao said this, Jia Yi received special care from the people around him. One by one, they came up to congratulate him and smiled happily, but no one knew what they were thinking in their hearts.

Ying Zheng, who had just left Xianyang Palace and was walking relaxing on the palace road, paused.

"recite……"

"On the Failures of the Qin Dynasty" seems to be a criticism of the mistakes of the Qin Dynasty.

He immediately went to the mall to look for it.

The only female emperor, Wu Zhao: [Reciting, but is this something you will be testing when selecting talents in the future? ]

Wu Zhao, who had been hiding for a long time, finally surfaced again.

Zhou Jia was still immersed in his own world. Seeing that everyone was so interested in reciting, he became increasingly powerless. He smacked his lips and said, "No problem. You only recite when there's an exam. If there's no exam, who would recite that stuff? It's long and hard to write..."

Jia Yi: ...

Is it really that difficult?

Jia Yi began to doubt himself.

The topic started to go off track again.

They only knew that Zhou Jia said that she had studied it and that she could study with men, but she had not explained to them the specific educational methods of their later generations.
