Live broadcast of the old ancestor gossip: Feeding the black moonlight to Qin Shi Huang

"This... I don't know what's so good about this. If the construction of the Great Wall is wrong, then can I assume that you don't care about the lives of ordinary people living near the Great Wall?

If the Great Wall had not been built, what would they do when the nomadic Xiongnu people harassed the people along the border? Would they wait for the Xiongnu's sword to fall on them, or would they unconditionally offer all their food and everything they owned to these Xiongnu bandits?

Zhou Jia's question made many people silent. The people living near the Great Wall covered their faces and cried. The Huns came to them from time to time to extort money. How could they, the ordinary people, have the strength to fight against the Huns?

Just as Zhou Jia said, they either had to give everything they had to the Huns in exchange for a chance to survive, or use their own lives to protect everything they had now. Who really cared about their feelings and life and death?

Even the common people and children from poor families mentioned by the court on a daily basis did not include these real people at the bottom of society.

Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty: [The Great Wall should indeed be built, but how many innocent people were killed or injured by his abuse of manpower? How many people were forced to leave their homes because of the construction of an imperial mausoleum?]

Zhou Jia raised an eyebrow.

Zhu Yuanzhang.

If it were the previous Zhou Jia, he might be very angry about Zhu Yuanzhang's words, but now Zhou Jia no longer cares about his words, and smiled lightly: "Speaking of abusing the people's power, come, let's talk about it!"

She sat up straight and rolled up her sleeves, looking like she was ready to do something big.

Ying Zheng stared at the four words "Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty" with a strange look in his eyes. He could feel that this person had a lot of opinions about him, and he was curious about what achievements this person had.

"Generally speaking, when people talk about Ying Zheng, there are three things that cannot be avoided. First, the Qin Straight Road built by Ying Zheng. Second, the Great Wall and the imperial mausoleum he built, as well as the Afang Palace which is misunderstood by many people. Then, he extensively renovated his own residence. In addition, there are also various water conservancy projects he built, such as the Zhengguo Canal and the Lingqu Canal.

Then I would like to ask the noble emperors of later generations, have you not done the things that Ying Zheng did? Have you not built roads? Have you not built water conservancy projects? Have you not renovated your homes?

Let's not talk about whether the Afang Palace of Emperor Qin Shihuang was built, let's talk about the Daming Palace of Emperor Li Shimin, the Nanjing Palace of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, and the Forbidden City Palace that was constantly renovated later. Do these not require manpower? Isn't this an abuse of people's power?

What? Is it because the palace of the previous dynasty is not magnificent enough to show off your noble status? You want to build a new palace to show off your financial strength? Are you allowed to build it but Ying Zheng is not allowed to build it? He renovated the Xianyang Palace where the emperors of previous dynasties lived, and you say he is building a large-scale project. Building the Afang Palace is an abuse of people's power. In short, everything Ying Zheng does is wrong."

As Zhou Jia spoke, she became more and more angry.

"To put it bluntly, if he is the first emperor, why can't he build an imperial mausoleum for himself? What's wrong with the mausoleum built by the first emperor being bigger? It's ridiculous, using someone else's imperial system and enjoying the rights brought by the imperial system, and then in the end you curse the founder of that country?

If you have the ability, why don't you use the imperial system created by others? Isn't this just like crying for your mother when you pick up the bowl and scolding your father when you put down the bowl? You want to build a memorial arch after becoming a whore. Some of you are really shameless.

You have the ability to create your own system and use it to scold Ying Zheng. Otherwise, if you scold someone in front of the emperor, you are really inferior to him. When you see him, you have to call him brother respectfully. "

tyrant.

It turns out that later generations considered him a tyrant.

Ying Zheng sneered, let him be a tyrant, no one can stop him from doing what he wants!

The number of comments suddenly decreased, as if they were frightened by Zhou Jia's sudden change of expression.

"How unreasonable! How can a woman be so presumptuous! You must never learn from her!"

Zhou Jia's sudden scolding made many men in Wan Chao change their faces, including many emperors. Who among them, the first emperor, dared to point at their noses and scold them like Zhou Jia did? If it happened in their dynasty, Zhou Jia would have been beheaded before he even finished speaking.

Many scholars were even more angry when they saw Zhou Jia being so rude, and many old scholars were so angry that they fainted.

"This woman... this woman..."

"How can a woman like her understand national affairs?"

"Women's opinions, women's opinions, how will the future generations educate their children?"

However, there were still many girls who looked at Zhou Jia on the screen with envy, as she was able to calm down. They were taught from birth to be ladies, to follow the three obediences and four virtues, and to regard their husbands as their God. They never dared to interfere in men's affairs, let alone talk about and evaluate an emperor in front of everyone like Zhou Jia did.

"This girl's temperament suits my taste."

唐

The nightmare of a middle school student, the poet Li Bai was drinking and boating on the lake at this time. Seeing Zhou Jia like this, he laughed heartily, "This future generation can actually raise such an interesting descendant. I wonder if I will have the opportunity to meet him."

宋

Li Qingzhao looked at Zhou Jia and said with a smile, "I would like to get to know this girl."

Zhou Jia didn't know how much of a shock her transformation had brought to them. She breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down a little.

"I don't mean to target any particular person, because I'm targeting a group of people, so if you want to identify yourself with them, I have no objection. To be honest, Ying Zheng has indeed always been called a tyrant. The feudal monarchy has existed for two thousand years, and Ying Zheng has been called a tyrant for two thousand years.

And when I was studying history in school, no matter whether you believed in your heart that Ying Zheng was a tyrant or not, you had to write that Ying Zheng was a tyrant on the test paper, so that you could get points. My teacher told me so at the time, and it really left a deep impression on me.

Just because he offended Confucian scholars, just because he offended those who held pens, but I can also tell you that in recent years, Ying Zheng's reputation has begun to improve, just because he completed the unification, but this is an achievement that no one can erase.

Even if you have slandered and scolded him for two thousand years, there will still be people who will go through two thousand years of time to try to piece together a complete Ying Zheng from those fragmentary historical texts, a Ying Zheng who, even after being slandered for two thousand years, still has his own unique personality charm and shines brightly.

History owes Ying Zheng an apology, and you owe Ying Zheng an apology.

Really, if you really can't stand Ying Zheng, don't just say it, just do it. If you have the ability, just wipe him out of the history books. You can even just delete Ying Zheng's existence and go straight to Liu Bang becoming emperor.

As long as you can erase him from the history books so that your descendants cannot find out that you have erased a piece of historical fact, but I can tell you now - it's unrealistic.

Because you can't erase his achievements, because if you look at Chinese history, the first person to establish an imperial system was Ying Zheng. Without Ying Zheng, how could you have emperors after you? How do you explain that your history suddenly jumped from a divided vassal state to a unified dynasty? You also have no way to explain what the imperial system is, what is the same writing system, what is the same wheel gauge, and what is the unified measurement system.

China has a history of 5,000 years. Oh, maybe it will be changed to 8,000 years in a while. Anyway, China has only produced one Ying Zheng in all these years. He was an emperor who was criticized as a feudal emperor 2,000 years ago. The system he established is still in use today. For more than 2,000 years, his system has been refined and evolved. His concept of great unification is still being implemented and fought for today. This is Ying Zheng, an emperor with a vision that transcends the times. "
