MTL - Three Kingdoms-Chapter 2790 Can't reach up and down, left and right, can't touch the front and back
Some things, too obvious, are a pain.
The issues Jiangdong and Zhang are discussing are actually being discussed between Sun Quan and Zhou Yu.
After learning that Zhou Yu's condition was getting worse, Sun Quan became significantly quieter, and he was more able to listen to Zhou Yu's words.
This time, Sun Quan specially brought a fur to present to Zhou Yu.
『Thank you, my lord. 』Zhou Yu was not very polite, unfolded the fur that Sun Quan had sent, and spread it on his lap.
Although Zhou Yu said that he was not very old now, he looked like an old man at the moment.
Coughing for a long time made Zhou Yu's body thinner and thinner.
The lungs are the most important organs of human beings, both in the theory of Chinese medicine and in the anatomy of Western medicine. Although it is not like the heart or the brain, a slight damage is inevitable, but once there is a problem with the lungs, it may be more painful than the pain of other organs.
Heart problems may be fatal in a few minutes or tens of minutes, and the same is true for most other parts, but lung diseases, especially chronic ones, or hidden dangers, are generally easy to delay. The brawny man was dragged into a skeleton, and a young man was dragged until his gray hair grew thick, and he was getting old...
Like most bear children, only when their parents are dying, do they understand the painstaking efforts of their parents, only when they face loss, do they discover the preciousness of possession.
Sun Quan didn't really understand that Zhou Yu was not trying to harm him, so he truly trusted Zhou Yu completely.
That's right, Sun Quan only trusted Zhou Yu when he realized that Zhou Yu was about to die.
Otherwise, Sun Quan always suspected that Zhou Yu was going to steal his house...
People with lung disease generally need to rest. Just like some old people, if they are doing well, they can’t live for another two years, but if something happens to them, they just leave, but the problem is that Zhou Yu can’t calm down...
『This kind of fur...』 Zhou Yu touched the leather on his knee, "The workmanship is not bad, it must be from Chang'an...My lord doesn't need to spend so much..."
The leather-making technology of the Han Dynasty was relatively rough.
Most ordinary leather is very hard, and even tastes very choking.
Only the furs produced by Chang'an are not only softer than ordinary furs, but also have no pungent smell, so they naturally become sought after by the children of the gentry.
Although Jiangdong can't be regarded as extremely cold, many gentry children still prepare one or two furs, just waiting for the occasional one or two days of snow in Jiangdong, and deliberately wear them out for a while, basically holding a kind of fur. Anyway, other people have ideas, so I naturally can't live without them.
So on the whole, this kind of fur is also a hot commodity, and the price is not cheap.
『What is the energy value of these external things? Sun Quan sighed, "If you can relieve the Dudu's illness a little bit, what's the problem with being a thousand pieces of gold?" 』
Zhou Yu smiled.
The sun shone down and fell on Zhou Yu's somewhat white temples.
『Jiangdong physicians are trash! ’ Sun Quan suddenly said somewhat resentfully, ‘Don’t worry, Governor! I have already sent people to Chang'an, and I will definitely invite a famous doctor to come and prolong the life of the governor! 』
Zhou Yu smiled, coughed lightly, and said in a weak voice, "Thank you, my lord. Life and death are fate, and the protagonist doesn't have to be demanding. 』
Zhou Yu's voice was very weak. Because of the lung disease, Zhou Yu's Qi became more and more insufficient. He could no longer speak loudly like before. Even maintaining a normal volume was difficult. He could only speak softly. You can only speak a few words in a slow voice, otherwise it will cause coughing...
『Compared with my illness, my lord should pay more attention to this...』 Zhou Yu patted the fur on his knees, 『Nowadays, Jiangdong relies on outsiders for its property...This is a big taboo...』
Jiangdong is not as good as later generations, and there is no slogan for the economy of the country. Whether it is agriculture or handicrafts, Jiangdong in the Han Dynasty was relatively poor. This situation was not significantly reversed until the Jin Dynasty moved south.
Not only doctors, but also handicraft products are actually dependent on outsiders. This is undoubtedly a big obstacle for the development of Jiangdong.
Sun Quan nodded, "What the governor said is true. I discussed with Dongfang before to open another 100,000 mu of farmland, but the method of farmland, although it is a long-term strategy, but the effect is a bit slow...As for Liu Xuande in Jiaozhou, business is booming now, it is not enough...』
From Jiangdong to Jiaozhi, although it is along the coastline, it does not mean that everything will go smoothly. Even if there is no problem on the road and on the boat, you can only go back and forth once a year. Otherwise, you will be facing the monsoon and sailing against the wind. For the current navigation technology, it is indeed difficult.
In addition to the limitation of shipbuilding technology, the number of sea trade can not keep up with the land route.
Jiangdong's current trade situation may also be an important reason why the scumbags have opened the sea in anger in history.
Zhou Yu nodded, "For these matters, the lord and Er Zhang can discuss... But there is one thing, the lord should make up his mind early..."
Sun Quan asked, "What's the matter?" 』
Zhou Yu coughed a few times, then paused for a while, and said, "Jiangdong...cough cough, the key to Jiangdong is not the danger of mountains and rivers...it is the stronghold of the people's hearts. If the people's hearts are strong, even if a million soldiers arrive, it will not be possible." Shake, if you can't do it, even a thousand riders are invincible. Wuling's barbarian rebellion is important, but it's not what the lord is anxious about at the moment...』
Sun Quan sat upright, bowed his hands and bowed, "I would like to hear more about it." 』
I would like to hear these four words in detail, Sun Quan has said this to Zhou Yu or other people more than once, but when Sun Quan said it before, he often took it lightly or perfunctorily, but now …
Sun Quan's attitude was very good, but Zhou Yu didn't say anything immediately, but raised his head, his gaze was a little wandering, he didn't know if he was looking at the sky, or he was thinking about something. After a while, Zhou Yu coughed lightly again After two voices, he said, "My lord...do you know what destiny is?" 』
『Mandate of Heaven? 』Sun Quan was taken aback.
Perhaps Zhou Yu was also thinking about the issue of destiny in his heart, or he might have other thoughts. Anyway, as soon as these two words came out, Sun Quan couldn't help but ponder.
Zhou Yu nodded slowly, as if he wanted to say something, but coughed again.
Sun Quan stepped forward, and while helping Zhou Yu to calm down, he asked someone to bring some water in.
I was a little flustered for a while, but fortunately, after a while, Zhou Yu's cough gradually subsided, and then he drank some decoction and lay down half tired.
The servant stepped back.
Sun Quan looked at Zhou Yu, feeling helpless and sad.
Sometimes, the word "destiny" weighs on my heart like a heavy stone.
As we all know, in ancient Chinese traditional politics, "Mandate of Heaven" is the most important foundation of a regime.
Sun Quan, as the top figure of Jiangdong's ruling class, although he is not at the top in terms of intelligence, but after all, his **** determines his head, and he is also forced to become a top figure in terms of power, and he has indeed been like this in history. The children fight politically.
Zhou Yu's words were like a sharp knife, breaking through a lot of fog at once, making the situation in Jiangdong much clearer.
That's right, Jiangdong's problem is actually these two words, "Mandate of Heaven".
After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty exclusively respected Confucianism, the theory of destiny based on Dong Zhongshu's interaction between heaven and man became the most orthodox ruling theory of the Han Dynasty for three to four hundred years. This theory provides a very good ruling standard, and even divides the ruling class, "The emperor is ordered by the sky, and the world is ordered by the emperor."
The emperor of the current Han Dynasty, everyone knows that he is no longer an emperor, so does this "Mandate of Heaven" mean that it has begun to shift?
Anyway, God will not change. Since the world does not change, only those who obey the "mandate of heaven" will change.
Perhaps no one dared to say this question a few years ago, but now that the three pillars are at the forefront, it seems that there is nothing to be taboo about.
『The change of destiny is nothing more than the second...' Zhou Yu said slowly, 'One is Yu Xia, and the other is Tang Wu...My lord, have you ever thought about it? 』
『Yu Xia...Tang Wu...』Sun Quan murmured and repeated. I don't know why, but his heart beat a little faster, it seemed to be beating loudly, like the drums of war on the battlefield for thousands of years, beating in his heart.
For Dahan, or for many people in Jiangdong, "Yu Xia's Prosperity" and "Tang Wu Zhi Wang" are the two most important lines in the so-called "Orthodox Mandate of Heaven".
Not only for the Han Dynasty, almost all subsequent feudal dynasties changed their dynasties, nothing more than following the "Yu Xia Zhixing" model of the peaceful abdication of Yao, Shun, and Yu, or following the violent overthrow of Shang Tang and Zhou Wu Wang. The "King of Tang and Wu" model was carried out for one generation. In terms of the "legality" of the feudal dynasty's imperial inheritance, these two paths are the so-called "right path".
Therefore, the so-called destiny of the dynasty is actually a set of models formed around the establishment of the two regimes of "Yu Xia Zhixing" and "Tang Wu Zhiwang" to illustrate that the new dynasty is "its virtues are in the same sky, so it can be called The political correctness of the emperor, as well as the related public opinion operation system, discuss the legitimacy of the new dynasty and strive for the political approval of the majority of subjects for the new dynasty.
Koto's problem lies here.
Because in Jiangdong, there is neither "Yu Xia Zhixing" nor "Tang Wu Zhi Wang"...
Jiangdong is so pitiful at the moment.
God's will has always been difficult to ask.
How can mortals know the will of heaven?
This requires another model, or a system to explain.
The interpretation system established by Guangwu in the Eastern Han Dynasty is Chenwei. Prophecy and miracles actually assume that some sages can predict God's will, so they are recorded in the form of prophecies so that future generations can grasp and use them. After Guangwu, prophecy became extremely popular and was included in the public opinion operation system of destiny, which became an important basis for the Eastern Han Dynasty's discussion of the orthodoxy of the dynasty, and it has always been prevalent in the Shandong Confucianism system.
『Those who replaced the Han Dynasty should be Tu Gao? ’ Sun Quan spit out a sentence.
Zhou Yu closed her eyes and nodded slowly.
Among the Three Kingdoms in history, this sentence is undoubtedly a huge fuse, which ignited more than one big thunder.
However, this just reflects Jiangdong's innate shortcomings.
Although Zhou Yu is ill, he is still worried about Jiangdong, and Jiangdong's problem, other problems can be ignored for the time being, the most important one is that the name is not right.
Zhou Yu feels that if there are two paths of destiny, one is "Yu Xia's Prosperity" and the other is "Tang Wu Zhi Wang", then Cao Cao is obviously going to take "Yu Xia's Prosperity".
The same is true of Cao Wei in history.
Different from Yuan Shu of the highway in the Han Dynasty, Cao Wei interpreted the phrase "the one who replaces the Han, should be Tu Gaoye", which means that the one who will replace the Han Dynasty to rule the world will be "Tu Gao", which refers to the "talisman of the Wei family's order", which is heaven Even the word "Wei" was deliberately chosen. Because "the one who paints is the way; the one who looks like Wei, the two views are also the same."
The meaning of the word "Wei" refers to the tall palaces on both sides of the road, so "Dangtu" and the tall ones are "Wei", so it seems reasonable that Wei should be contemporary to Han. Through this explanation, Cao Wei had the foundation of public opinion of "Replacing the Han Dynasty by the Mandate of Heaven".
In addition, Cao Cao occupied the original base of Guangwu Zhongxing, the Central Plains of the Han Dynasty, and later transferred the political center to Yecheng, Jizhou. "The "hometown of three generations" is one of the symbols of "ordered by heaven".
Such an argument is more likely to be recognized by the children of the Central Plains scholars, and it will more or less have some meaning of "Yu Xia's prosperity", which can be used to gain the recognition and support of the Central Plains scholars.
Regardless of whether it is at present or in history, Cao Cao is actually advancing on such a road. Through the creation of momentum through the theory of prophecy, combined with the conditions of its strength to occupy the Central Plains, and finally the peaceful transition of "Han Wei Chan Dynasty" It copied the fateful allusion of "Yu Xia Zhixing" among the three generations of Yao, Shun, and Yu, which was highly respected by the ancients. Through the theory of destiny that "their virtues are the same as heaven", the Cao Wei political group was gradually brought to an orthodox position.
On the other hand, Fei Qian, who replaced Liu Bei's original way of "fighting evil", is more in line with the destiny path of "King of Tang Wu" than Liu Bei in history...
Although in history, Liu Bei took the Han as the orthodox in the end, saying that he was the orthodox heir of the great Han, but Liu Xuande's origin, his blood relationship, it's nothing more than deceiving ordinary people, if he really insists on relying on Tang Wu , is somewhat contradictory.
In history, Liu Bei did not blindly talk about Tang and Wu, but he made a groundbreaking statement that "Han has the world, and the history is boundless", saying that the Han family has inheritance, and it must be counted from the Western Han Dynasty. Although there is Wang Mang's conspiracy in the middle Inverse, but there is still Guangwu's Zhongxing later, so Dong Zhuo and even Cao Cao are just similar to Wang Mang's reappearance. In the end, Liu Bei will push the big man back to the correct reincarnation like Guangwu, and realize the "calendar" of the big man without borders".
So Liu Bei also said that he is the orthodox successor of destiny. He inherited not only the Eastern Han Dynasty, but also the Western Han Dynasty. He inherited the destiny from his grandfather’s grandfather’s grandfather’s grandfather...
Hey, in this way, it seems that he is much taller than Cao Wei, and has more credibility. Therefore, Liu Bei's crusade against Cao Wei seems to represent "heavenly punishment".
Of course, if Liu Bei in history could really defeat Cao Wei, then his "Mandate of Heaven" is naturally understandable, but the problem lies here, what can be done if the punishment is invincible?
One free throw and two free throws, maybe it can be called a test given by God. After these three free throws and four free throws, there is still no gain, so is there something wrong? After five free throws, six free throws and seven free throws, the Sichuan and Shu people naturally began to mutter, who is punishing whom?
Now, Fei Qian, who is walking the way of "Tang Wu" loomingly, does not have the embarrassment of Liu Bei in history.
Regardless of whether it was the previous conquest of the frontier desert, the Western Qiang, or the pacification of the Jianning area in Sichuan, Shu, and Sichuan, all kinds of wars not only did not make Feiqian's Guanzhong regime exhausted and decayed, but they became more and more fierce like steelmaking with fire. Forging a shining signboard, the taste of Tang Wu's "On behalf of the sky" became stronger and stronger.
Although it is said that Fei Qian has always regarded himself as a courtier of a great man, and has not revealed or expressed to the outside world how to replace the great man, isn't it the same for Tang Wu back then? Shang Tang destroyed Xia and King Wu defeated Zhou because of Xia Jie and Shang Zhou's many unrighteous actions and sinning against heaven. Therefore, Tang and Wu's "replacing heaven to execute punishment" is exactly the embodiment of "their virtues are in the same sky".
Perhaps many people are thinking, if that day Cao Cao did something "forbidden by heaven", will Guan Zhongfeiqian be like Tang Wu in ancient times, leading the soldiers of the world to attack him?
Moreover, the Zhou Dynasty was in the west back then, and now Feiqian is also in the west. Is this really a coincidence?
Of course, Cao Cao is also making some changes at the moment, and Fei Qian is also abandoning these so-called prophecies, but no matter what Cao Cao and Fei Qian do, the problem is poor Jiangdong, neither side can match!
Sun Quan thought, the more he thought about it, the more flustered he became, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
The founder of the Jiangdong regime, Sun Jian was originally a subordinate of Yuan Gonglu, a rebellious minister of the Han Dynasty.
A courtier who rebels, can he be a good person?
This public opinion base was simply terrible at first.
Later, under Zhou Yu's plan, Sun Ce broke up with Yuan Shu, and submitted a table to the Emperor of Han, and obtained the official recognition and canonization of the court, which made him and the people of Jiangdong under his command a formal monarch and minister in name relation.
This is the rock on which Jiangdong Foundation is based.
But now this cornerstone has become an obstacle on the way for Jiangdong to further reach the competitor of destiny.
Historically, neither side of Jiangdong could rely on each other, which caused Sun Quan to share the bed with Liu Bei for a while, and flirt with Cao Cao for a while, and played a white lotus vividly. First, he reached an alliance with Liu Bei in the name of "eliminating thieves for Han" They fought against Cao together, but soon after, they went out of the wall, attacked and killed Guan Yu, and surrendered to Cao Wei. However, it didn't take long for Jiangdong to rebel against Cao Wei again and join forces with Shu to attack Wei.
This situation of repeated horizontal jumps made Sun Quan unhappy on both sides. No matter who supported "Yu Xia Zhixing" or "King of Tang and Wu", they did not agree with Sun Quan, so that Sun Quan had no chance in the history of Bashu. The foundation of Gaozu's imperial career" also missed the Central Plains, the "place of prosperity for three generations", which made it impossible for Sun Quan to raise a banner similar to "Gaozu Miexiang", nor could he follow the example of "Yuxia's prosperity" between Yao, Shun and Yu. lift.
Later, Sun Quan found some support from the so-called prophecy, but the legal basis for his proclaiming himself emperor was actually very weak. For this reason, the last remedial measure Sun Quan took was to form an alliance with the Shu Han, hoping to strengthen the legitimacy of his ascension with the recognition of his emperor title by the Han family. Even so, Jiangdong's various self-contradictory practices have made Jiangdong's destiny path extremely chaotic, which will inevitably lead to doubts about the orthodox basis for his proclaiming emperor, which in turn will cause Jiangdong people to disapprove of the "mandate of heaven" of the Sun regime, and also No wonder.
Now, under Zhou Yu's suggestion, Sun Quan seemed to have foreseen this kind of predicament in the future, and couldn't help but asked a little helplessly: "Commander, this...what should I do?" 』
Sun Quan has not yet fully evolved into Emperor Sun...
Well, even Emperor Sun may not be able to find a new path.
Zhou Yu shook his head slowly, then looked at Sun Quan and said: "The destiny... others can't give it to you, you can only ask for it yourself... If you make a wrong step, you will be forever...My lord, they will let you out soon...How do you get out...You Need to think about it..."
