Although Xu Pingjun broke out directly and even beat the two emperors and dealt with their favorite ministers, the emperors of the Han Dynasty did not complain at all, not only them but also the ministers.
Because in the pre-Qin and Han dynasties, women in the royal family were like this. Even Liu Qi, the powerful emperor, did not dare to refute when his mother wanted to kill his minister Yuan Gusheng, but secretly handed him a sword. .
Not only that, even the Empress Dowager Shangguan said just one sentence when she deposed Liu He. Anyway, the Empress Dowager's power during this period was greater than that of the emperor, even the actual emperor.
Although Xu Pingjun is only Liu Xun's queen now, in future generations, despite her young age, she will be a real queen mother and empress dowager. No one dares to speak when dealing with some ministers and relatives.
After the Han Dynasty dealt with Wang Zhengjun, Zhuo Qun and the others also tested Wang Mang immediately and asked others to ask him a lot about future generations and time travel.
And most of them are from the last century. Because who made everyone say that Wang Mang was the first time traveler in a special period, so everyone started asking about it from the founding period.
As a result, Wang Mang didn't even answer a word. Everyone thought that Wang Mang was a time traveler in the new century and just concealed his identity. So everyone used direct violence to knock Wang Mang unconscious, and then took him to the main world to start. A brute force attack on what was inside his brain.
Then everyone found out that Wang Mang was not a time traveler, but a Confucian boss. This person was cultivated by the Gongyang Sect of Confucianism with their last heritage, and he was a figure they cultivated from the ancient king.
Because since the Gongyang School came to power during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the entire school has inflated like a balloon. Not only did they inflate, they also absorbed a lot of other theories in the process of expansion, in order to only One thing is to return to the rule of three generations.
Of course, this was not their initial vision. In the early stage, they wanted to become the most prominent school. Confucianism had already joined the Han Dynasty since the time of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty.
Li Shiqi was a representative figure of the first generation of Confucianism, and he did well under Emperor Gaozu. However, due to political strife from other schools, he was brutally murdered by Qi King Tian Guang and Qi Prime Minister Tian Heng, and then because of Lu Ru's coquettishness. The operation was almost played to death by the collective.
Then they worked hard to get Yuan Gusheng to Liu Qi's side, but Yuan Gusheng was a bad-mouthed person. If Liu Qi hadn't given him a sword, he would have been killed by Empress Dowager Dou.
The subsequent Jianyuan New Deal was also initiated by Confucianism. In the end, it was Dong Zhongshu who led the Gongyang faction to use the theory of great revenge and great unification, which successfully attracted Liu Che and made him the national ideology of the Han Dynasty. After Liu Che's death, Gongyang Pai let himself go. Huo Guang is one of their representatives.
Because the Gongyang sect has a saying, that is, Jingquan, that is, when the emperor cannot fulfill his responsibilities, the princes can perform their responsibilities on his behalf. This is what Duke Huan of Qi and Duke Wen of Jin said about respecting the king and resisting the barbarians, and this is what Huo Guang did.
But later on, they felt that instead of using power to play around with respecting the king and repelling the barbarians, it would be better to directly launch their own ideal king. However, when Huo Guang was regent, they did not have this idea yet.
However, Liu Xun dealt a heavy blow to the Gongyang Sect during his ruling career after taking power, and he also wanted to abolish Confucianism. If Liu Heng had not inherited the orthodoxy of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he would have really done so.
Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty preferred the people of the Guliang School because they emphasized righteousness, respected the royal power, and talked about "respect for respect" and "junior ethics", which were more in line with Liu Shi's wishes. Therefore, a large number of people from the Guliang School came to the Han Dynasty during this period. Appeared.
Even though they are both Confucianists, Gu Liang and Gongyang have almost opposite philosophies. If one party is strong, the other will be weak. Gongyang was extremely strong before, but now it has weakened for a while, and it is unbearable, so they Like Huo Guang, he is pushing out a person, and this person is Wang Mang.
As for why Wang Mang was chosen, the reason is simple: Wang Mang is the only outstanding figure among the descendants of the Queen Mother Wang Zhengjun's family, and is also the most promising relative of the Han Dynasty.
Because filial piety plays a very important role in the politics of the Han Dynasty, the power of the Queen Mother is very important. Therefore, the Queen Mother's family members can easily sit in high positions, and they are the kind of people who can sit in high positions even if they have no merit. There will be some objections, so choosing the relative is choosing the simple mode.
But this time the Gongyang Faction no longer wants to be in power, or rather the boss that the Gongyang Faction has trained with all their efforts.
Yes, Wang Mang is not the leader of the Gongyang Sect like Huo Guang, but the leader of the Gongyang Sect, which is the same status as Dong Zhongshu at the beginning, and he really speaks the truth within the Gongyang Sect.
He no longer wants to be in power, he wants to restore the rule of the three ancient dynasties, become an ideal king, establish an ideal country that belongs entirely to Confucianism, and become an "ancestor king", the kind of ancestor king that Confucius wanted to teach!
This guy's future will be successful, because of the Western Han royal family's own brain damage and Wang Mang's ability to cheat, as well as Wang Mang's humility and Tian Chen's method of usurping Qi, he successfully made his Wang Tian Chen family once again in the Han Dynasty Chao successfully bought the world.
Well, Wang Mang's ancestors were the Tian family who usurped Qi. When the Tian family was destroyed, some of them ran back to Yingchuan and changed themselves back to Chen, and some of them changed themselves to Wang. This is what Wang Mang paid for. Come.
Therefore, the method of Tian Chen usurping Qi from big fights to small fights, and selling favors to buy righteousness is an ancestral craft in people's homes. In addition, all Confucians in the world are interested in creating an ideal king, so Wang Mang It worked.
As for why Wang Mang came up with the vernier caliper, that's because this thing already existed during the Warring States Period, and it was just a secret of the Mohist family. The reason why the Qin State was able to develop standardized production was because it had standard measuring tools, and the vernier caliper was just one of them. .
The reason why Wang Mang hates serfdom is very simple, because serfdom is not a three-generation government. During the three-generation period, slaves were defeated foreigners, not their own clan, so Wang Mang banned serfdom.
Wang Mang's state-owned land system prohibits private buying and selling of land, which is also related to the Three Dynasties Government, because during the feudal period land was not allowed to be bought and sold, and the well-field system did not allow land to be bought and sold, and Wang Mang's state-owned land system was to consolidate the well-field.
In short, everything Wang Mang did was to be the first king for the sake of law, and then become the first king.
This point has to be said to be very consistent with the ideal king that the Gongyang faction wants to create. Therefore, in the early days of Wang Mang's rule, Wang Mang seemed to be cheating. Every step was completed while being praised by all people, even his Usurping the Han Dynasty is also what all people in the world expect.
Then Wang Mangfa's restoration of the royal way of the three generations of kings made everyone know that he was a madman, and then all the aristocratic families and schools in the world (there seems to be no difference between the two in the pre-Qin period, every aristocratic family is passed down by the disciples, all You can say that my family is a school of thought.) They are all the opposite.
They allowed Wang Mang to usurp the Han Dynasty and establish himself as king, but they did not allow the Utopia of the Gongyang School to appear, because once the Utopia appeared, other schools of thought might be labeled as pseudo-scholars.
So the orthodox government began.
The Gongyang faction used all their energy and made a final struggle, and then they were directly defeated. However, they abandoned their boss Wang Mang at the end and took refuge with Liu Xiu, and then became the leader again in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Official science.
