Extra Story Lao Zhang who loves fishing

The three-entry courtyard on the bank of the West Lake is full of bamboos and fragrant osmanthus trees.

This is the place Zhang Ximeng chose for his retirement.

He was afraid that the moisture would seriously hurt his body, so he built two ground dragons underground, and in autumn and winter, he would get up early to dispel the cold. As for the seats in the room, there are also wolf-skin cushions, stoves, braziers, and soup pots are the must-have items for Zhang’s family after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

It seems that in the winter months, he almost froze to death outside. The older he got, the more Zhang Ximeng cared about his health, which was why he didn’t want to be a neighbor with Lao Zhu.

On weekdays, Zhang Ximeng is still busy with a lot of things. For example, in the morning, he eats eight minutes full, then carries a fishing rod, goes to the West Lake, sits until noon, whether there is any harvest, he returns home for dinner, and then takes a nap.

When he got up, he started writing.

Zhang Ximeng would read a lot of books, brainstorm, form a set of theories, and then write quickly, occasionally stopping to think deeply.

But once he straightened out his thoughts, he would write dragons and snakes again, and it was normal to have ten thousand words a day.

The book written by Zhang Ximeng at this time is called “The History of the Development of the Chinese Nation”, which can be roughly understood as the formation of a unified country.

Zhang Ximeng tried to find experience from history to solve the problems facing the Ming Dynasty.

Is there anything wrong with the Ming Dynasty at this time?

In fact, there are still some. For example, recently, a young scholar named Jianyi wrote to the imperial court, hoping to speed up the construction of the province and promote it widely to cover the world.

Jianyi’s letter received enthusiastic responses from people such as Fang Xiaoru, Huang Zicheng, etc. It was discussed everywhere for a while, and it was overwhelming.

It’s just that they are still strong on the opposite side of them, including Yang Shiqi and the concubine Hu Yan. These two resolutely criticized Jian Yi, saying that he was wasting people’s strength and was unjustifiable.

However, Jian Yi also argues with reason. He believes that although there are great difficulties and repeated repetitions, the key is to carry it out. Even if it is only for a short period of time, it will be like Qin Shi Huang’s **** of the world, and it will become a convention. Absolutely great unity.

No one can reverse the trend.

If you don’t take advantage of it now and lose the opportunity, you will only have more constraints in the future.

To be Qin Shi Huang, or to be Emperor Zhou?

Jian Yi and others even sent out soul torture, directly attacking Zhu Biao’s weakness.

“Father, can you tell me what to do with this old man?” Zhang Chengtian sat on the small bench and watched his father go fishing. He was still young, and he couldn’t stand this kind of game where the wisher took the bait.

But he had no choice. He had just been transferred to the capital from Jiangxi, and he was a benefactor in Zhongshu Province. Usually, he was in charge of contacting Zhongshu and Zhu Biao. It was only natural that he came to ask for advice when something urgent happened.

Otherwise, what’s the point of specially transferring him to the capital?

“Father, you always tell me, Jian Yi and Hu Yan, who is more credible?”

Zhang Ximeng finally sighed and laughed: “Why do you listen to these two people, you can’t have your own ideas?”

Zhang Chengtian’s face became bitter, “Father, if the boy has your old knowledge and can see through such complicated matters, I won’t come here to trouble you. Your Majesty is also very confused about this!”

“Your Majesty is confused, he can ask the Emperor Taishang!” Zhang Ximeng said casually.

Zhang Chengtian was even more helpless, “Father, I know the level of my master best. If I ask him, the old man will only say that he will overcome all difficulties, and he must make more efforts to save money.”

Zhang Ximeng smiled and said, “Since you know what’s going on, why don’t you advise Your Majesty?”

“Let Your Majesty learn from the Emperor Taishang!” Zhang Chengtian shook his head quickly, “Dad, it’s not like you are old and don’t know. Your Majesty and the Emperor Taishang are two different people. Ever since you lived in West Lake, the Emperor Taishang went to Suzhou. Last year, Prime Minister Sun returned to his hometown. No one can suppress the courtiers. Although Qian Tang succeeded as the first assistant, he is far inferior in terms of authority. It is even more difficult to carry out administrative affairs. In such a situation, it is impossible not to ask your old man to help you make up your mind. ”

With a smile on Zhang Ximeng’s face, Si Bo was not surprised.

Even he had already anticipated it.

“The Book of Changes says that the dragons are headless, Ji! The current court situation is actually quite good, better than when I was there!”

Zhang Ximeng was overjoyed, “After so many days of fishing, it is finally open!”

Zhang Chengtian almost cried, it just opened now, what are you busy with? Isn’t this a waste of time?

Regardless of this, Zhang Ximeng caught a fish, he was in a good mood, and he opened the chat box… “Actually, I am very happy to see the debate in front of the court, whether it is the proposition of Jian Yi and others, or the objection of Hu Yan and others, I am very happy. I think they all make sense, and they are all words for the sake of the country.”

Zhang Chengtian wanted to cry, “Father, don’t mess with the mud when you are old, say something useful!”

Zhang Ximeng said sternly: “I said that they are all right, but they are not fighting the mud. In fact, what they are talking about happens to be the choice of the Qin and Han dynasties, which is very meaningful.”

Zhang Chengtian thought for a while, and finally said, “Father, can you always talk about it carefully?”

Zhang Ximeng smiled and said: “We often like to say that it is easy to conquer the country, but difficult to defend. However, not many people have clearly explained where it is easy and where it is difficult. The first emperor swept Liuhe and ruled the world. Since then, it seems that the pattern of great unification It was established, and I never escaped from this framework. It seems that the entire land of China can be unified, and all the credit is due to Qin Shihuang. It is not fair to say that. It is even somewhat inappropriate.”

Zhang Chengtian lowered his head and thought for a while, then suddenly said: “Dad, what do you mean, the Qin Dynasty is to conquer the world, and the Han Dynasty is to defend the country? In fact, the Han Dynasty is more difficult than the Qin Dynasty?”

“At least it needs to be compared and put together.” Zhang Ximeng smiled and said: “The Qin Dynasty ruled the world and promulgated the system of prefectures and counties. After more than ten years of effort, the people of the six countries rebelled one after another. What is the reason for this? Are the nobles rebelling?”

Zhang Chengtian’s knowledge is not too bad, he quickly shook his head, “In the final analysis, the six countries’ legacy is still following the trend. The root is that the people of the six countries don’t like Qin’s law!”

Zhang Ximeng smiled and said, “Why don’t you like Qin Fa?”

“Why?” Zhang Chengtian was stunned and said, “Qin Fa is cruel and harsh, and the common people can’t stand it.”

Zhang Ximeng smiled and said, “Is that so? I am very strict with your brothers, how can you bear it? And the people of Qin are made of special materials, how can they bear it?”

“This…” Zhang Chengtian was stopped by the question and said helplessly, “Father, your old man gives advice.”

Zhang Ximeng smiled, “What’s so confusing, to put it bluntly, you’re just used to it!”

Zhang Chengtian was greatly surprised that it was so simple?

He was stunned for a while, thinking over and over again, it seemed to make sense!

How many years have elapsed since the reform of Shang Yang and the unification of the world by the First Emperor of the Qin Dynasty?

One hundred and thirty-five years!

During the period, he experienced six Qin kings, including the first emperor, a full seven generations.

Do you like Shang Yang’s reforms so much when you are a Qin person?

Just a joke, if it was really so welcome, Shang Yang wouldn’t be dead.

Qin people also went back and forth, and it took a long time to get used to the Qin method and burst into a mighty force to dominate the world.

The First Emperor unified the world, implemented Qin law, and there were rebellions in various places, and even after the death of the First Emperor, he overthrew the Qin Dynasty… Zhang Chengtian thought about it, suddenly slapped his thigh, and exclaimed: “I understand!”

Zhang Ximeng hummed, “What are you yelling about? I want to catch another one!”

Zhang Chengtian didn’t care about his father’s fishing, he said to himself: “I really understand, the uprising of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, including Xiang Yu and Liu Bang that followed, should be regarded as a counterattack against Qin Fa, but the last counterattack was that Shang Yang was killed. , this time is the demise of the Qin Dynasty, the times are different, the performance is different, but the result is the same!”

Zhang Ximeng hummed, “Is it really the same?”

“It’s not exactly the same. Although Shang Yang died, his reforms continued to exist, but with the fall of the Qin Dynasty, the Qin system was in danger of collapse… I understand! I really understand! The people who destroy Qin have guaranteed Qin Fa, it’s interesting, it’s really interesting!”

Zhang Chengtian’s eyes glowed, and he had the feeling that he could die in the evening.

In just a few words, the confusion that lingered in his heart was resolved. Zhang Chengtian felt that he was standing on the top of the mountain all of a sudden, looking down at the long river of two thousand years of history, and the whole person was very happy.

It is true that the Qin system is to implement the world, but the people of the world must also adapt to the Qin system.

The first emperor’s credit is undeniable, but he was so impatient that he lost his position and ruined the Qin Dynasty, so that the Qin system almost ended.

When he arrived at Liu Bang, he continued to inherit the Qin system, but he also patched the Qin system.

The emperors before Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, although inherited the Qin system, did not engage in large-scale construction and construction projects, rested with the people, governed by inaction, and restored the power of the people.

It can be regarded as solving the biggest drawback of the Qin system.

Later, in response to the issue of enfeoffment and prefectures and counties, Han Xiang took a half step back, letting the enfeoffed state and prefectures and counties coexist, giving the people time to adapt.

When the people can accept the great unification, then gradually eliminate the feudal state, gather power, and complete the great unification of the country.

If it is the pioneering move of the First Emperor, and it is a great courage, then the Han Dynasty inherits the Qin system and perfects the great unification, which is the supreme wisdom!

Great wisdom and great courage have led to the unification of China.

Both are indispensable and equally important.

Zhang Ximeng smiled and said, “The most difficult thing about reforming the law is not to take two steps forward, but to take half a step back when you take two steps forward, so that you can be considered safe. If you continue to take the third step forward, it will be ten thousand feet. Abyss, but if you are not careful and step back too much, the previous reform results will fall short. Do you understand the sense of proportion here?”

Zhang Chengtian stretched out two thumbs, “Father, you are so tall! There are still people who say that if you were always in the court, you would not have these troubles. In fact, if you continued to be in the court, you would have Take the third step forward with the Ming Dynasty! It is very good to cover the world and establish a province, but the cost is too high and it is difficult to maintain it.

“Now that both you Lao and Taishanghuang have retired, this is to avoid this ending. We can learn the wisdom of the Han Dynasty, spend more time, grind time with water, and slowly annex the Eight Wastelands and establish a larger-scale unification!”

Zhang Chengtian was overjoyed, and he finally figured out that he could meet Zhu Biao.

“Father, baby, answer the sky now, go back to Your Majesty.”

Zhang Ximeng was stunned, “What are you doing in a hurry? I finally caught a fish, let’s drink some fish soup.”

Zhang Chengtian looked at the fish that wasn’t as big as a slap, and grinned, “You can enjoy it yourself, my son. Goodbye.”

After speaking, the boy ran away in a flash, Zhang Ximeng stomped his feet in anger, you bastard! Little bastard, I beg your father for guidance, servilely, he pointed you, UU reading www.uukanshu.com smashed and ran!

Can you stay with me for a while?

Zhang Ximeng was complaining, but Zhang Chengtian turned around and came back.

“That father… I, I have made a lifelong agreement with Miss Zeng.”

“Girl Zeng? What girl Zeng?”

“That’s right, it’s that blunt, small family, a nice guy, don’t be angry!” Zhang Chengtian said, backing up, turning around and running away.

“Father, I will work harder, next year, I will give birth to a granddaughter for you!”

Holding the fishing rod, Zhang Ximeng scolded, “You bastard, you dare to give your life privately! Even if you give birth to a pearl with long legs, I don’t care! Go, go as far as you want!”
