The fate of writers

Chapter 145 It's Raining
History is by no means a blank piece of paper for anyone to smear on. Future generations may have no way of knowing what Emperor Ai of Zhou was thinking that night when he made the decision to abdicate. However, we can make guesses from the results that she must have had something in mind. For the common people, the "Old Book of Zhou" says: "The rivers are divided and the country is divided. The chaos will not stop, the people will not be able to rest, and they will be miserable."

After Emperor Ai of Zhou Dynasty, he changed his title to Duke Linzi, lived in Bianjing, and held a fiefdom far away.

The regime transition between Zhou and Song was considered to be relatively stable, so there are many historical books jointly compiled by veteran officials of the previous Zhou and the Duke of Linzi, and the well-preserved historical materials of the previous Zhou are collectively called the Old Zhou Shu.The New Book of Zhou was revised in the middle and late Song Dynasty.

On the one hand, the Song Dynasty wanted to drastically change the policies of the previous dynasty, but on the other hand, it was constrained by the rationality of the regime of abdication.The Song Dynasty struggled against Huaizhou thought all his life.Especially after the death of Emperor Taizu of Song Dynasty, Emperor Taizong pointed out a battle map, and lost two or three of the natural defense line in the north. Later, Renzong lost money and cut the land when he won the battle.

Later, I don't know who the "big smart" got the idea, and developed a set of "Confucianism" that was lenient on self-discipline and strict on others. This set of ideas was very thoughtful and confined people to a small square piece of land.

Of course, due to the legacy of the previous Zhou Dynasty, this set of ideas took root and sprouted, but it did not mature until the Zhao Dynasty jumped off the cliff and carried forward the "Neo-Confucianism" thinking.

A gust of sea breeze blew by, Jiang Ling didn't feel much, but Liu Zhi was very worried about her getting sick, so she persuaded: "Let's go, you wear less clothes, and be careful of catching a cold."

"The sun is shining brightly, it won't be cold." Jiang Ling muttered a few words, but he listened to the advice and turned around to leave, with Liu Zhi following behind.

Jiang Ling seemed to have a crow's mouth. As soon as he said the sun, a dark cloud slowly moved forward, covering the sky and covering the sun. Bean-sized raindrops fell on the back of Jiang Ling's hands. Before the raindrops became more dense, Xiaotian and Xiaoping stood behind him. The two opened their umbrellas.

"I said I should bring an umbrella." Liu Zhi gave Jiang Ling a sideways look.

"The shower stopped after a while, and it's the same to find a place to take shelter." Jiang Ling had the hardest mouth all over her body, and she was the only one who said the good things.

slam-la-

As the rain poured down, Xiao Ping looked at Jiang Ling in surprise: "Miss, have you ever opened your mouth?"

"Madam, it's raining harder and harder, let's find a place to take shelter first." Oda asked, pointing to a hotel.

"Okay." Willow Branch nodded in agreement.

As soon as Jiang Ling and his party entered the hotel, they found that there were many temporary shelters from the rain, and some of them were embarrassed and ordered a pot of tea.The shopkeeper with his pockets clean did not chase away customers either.Harmony makes money, and it is also necessary to have convenience with others.

Jiang Ling and his party were not short of money, so they ordered a pot of tea. The waiter who became a waiter was very familiar with them and brought clean towels to the four of them.For the money, the service is attentive.

Seeing that the rain would not stop for a while, the guests gathered together in twos and threes to chat.

Some of them, like Jiang Ling, came to the dock to see people off, and some just got off the ship and returned home.There are also workers who stayed because of the rain.The composition of the personnel is very complex.

"I heard that Prince Jing also presided over the reform..."

"I don't think the court is sincere at all."

"Brother, please enlighten me."

"I don't dare to take it seriously. I just think that if the court is really determined to change, it should change its political system first. Why are the Western countries strong? Is it because of their guns and ships? No, that's just appearance, supporting the guns and ships. It’s the political system.”

"Regime?"

"Yes, if the imperial court wants to be reborn from the ashes, it must first change the political system. In my opinion, the most suitable political system for the imperial court to learn from and improve in Western countries should be the British constitutional monarchy."

"A constitutional monarchy is..."

"Have you read the novel Qingyun Road by Nongjiazi?"

"I have seen it, but what does this have to do with the constitutional monarchy?"

"It's easy to explain after reading it. It has an afterword, which talks about what later generations said."

"I'm impressed by your mentioning it this way. This postscript... is messy and hard to understand."
