The six-dimensional pictures of emperors of all dynasties were exposed, and the ancestors panicked

Chapter 393 A closer look reveals that this is a collection of tyrants!
The period of Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty
"This Song Dynasty... is indeed rich..."

Liu Fuling felt a little envious.

The truth is that the pit left for him by his "great talent and strategy" father was too deep and too big.

If it weren't for the kindness of my great-grandfather, I would have already been on the road to national destruction.

"Zhezong died early."

Huo Guang sat beside him with a serious expression and said in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty, the Han people should focus on self-cultivation nowadays."

Liu Fuling smiled and waved his hand:
"I think it's better to be still than to move."

……

Yanhan and Emperor He period
Liu Zhao stroked his mustache and murmured:
“The elderly have a place to live, and the sick have a place to receive medical care.”

"It does have a people-oriented meaning."

"I am becoming more and more curious now."

Liu Qing licked his lips.

"In my opinion, it is better not to be curious."

"I always feel uneasy in my heart, and I'm afraid it's not a good thing."

……

【After Song Huizong became emperor, he eliminated corruption and promoted good, showing the demeanor of a revivalist emperor.】

[From the various edicts and proclamations issued by the emperor at that time, it can be seen that he was very sincere and did not show any signs of playing tricks or deceiving the world for fame.]

[If Song Huizong could continue like this, the Song Dynasty might reach its peak.]

【But the fact is that the phrase "Prince Duan is frivolous" is not just talk, and the so-called "Lord of the Restoration" is just an illusion. 】

【Cai Jing's efforts to save the world and bring peace to the people were not for the sake of the empire.】

[In 1102 AD, Emperor Huizong of Song ordered Tong Guan to set up factories in Suzhou and Hangzhou to create high-end handicrafts for him, including ivory jewelry, gold, silver, rattan and bamboo, carvings, weaving and embroidery.]

Cai Jing saw through Song Huizong's mind and his love of sensual pleasures. He elaborated on the "prosperity and prosperity, the king grants it" and "a great man who can be humble must be at ease" in the Book of Changes, advocating "prosperity and at ease"]

[Tell Huizong that the treasury is full of money and there is endless money to spend, and encourage the king to enjoy himself to his heart's content in a peaceful and prosperous era, so that he can enjoy himself with peace of mind.]

……

The period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty
Liu Che looked a little unhappy.

This situation of deceiving superiors and subordinates made him think of his own old age.

Those who were fooled by officials thought that the world was at peace.

Even an emperor as wise as himself could not escape the fate of being deceived.

Not to mention this kind of king who lost his country.

……

Later Zhou Dynasty: Emperor Shizong's reign
"He is indeed not fit to be an emperor."

Guo Rong sighed.

Although he seemed somewhat clear-headed at the beginning, he was still biased and fond of luxury.

These two points determine how obvious his weaknesses are.

……

[Cai Jing was very successful in deceiving people, and Song Huizong was very at ease in having fun. ]

【During the reign of Emperor Huizong of Song, fiscal expenditures increased dramatically. 】

[Taking the annual expenditure of the capital as an example, during the reign of Emperor Taizong, it was about 1.5 million strings of cash per year, and during the reign of Emperor Shenzong, it was about 4.3 million strings of cash per year.]

[By the time of his arrival, the amount had increased to more than 14 million guan per year.]

[Among the fiscal expenditures, the cost of civil engineering projects such as the construction of Yeongbokgung Palace and the Mansui Mountain accounted for a high proportion. ]

[Zhang Gen, the Huainan Transport Commissioner, pointed out: "The greatest expense in the world is the construction of civil engineering projects."]

……

Great Qin.

Ying Zheng had a dark face and was holding back a grudge.

My face turned black because I thought of Zhao Gao and Hu Hai, these two people in heaven are so similar!

He held his breath because he felt that this was a secret mockery of him!

Who was the first emperor?
I am the widow.

Who was the first emperor to engage in large-scale construction?

I am...

Which country was the first to be associated with the development of infrastructure and the destruction of a nation?
Still the widower!

How dare you say you didn’t mock me!

……

Big man.

"He looks a bit like an old friend."

Liu Bang stroked his beard and shook his head.

Lu Zhi turned her head and raised her eyebrows.

"Emperor Qin Shihuang?"

Liu Bang shook his head and made a “yeah” gesture.

"Qin II."

Lu Zhi looked him up and down suspiciously.

"Have you seen it?"

Liu Bang raised his neck and said proudly:
"Old man, the dead! Do you dare to say that Qin II is not a dead man?"

I gave him a big eye roll.

……

【Song Huizong's extravagant life caused a huge fiscal deficit.】

[In order to fill the fiscal deficit, Song Huizong's close money-making expert Cai Jing and his gang used all means to squeeze the people's fat. ]

【First, inferior coins were minted.】

【At that time, there were mainly two types of coins in the world: ten-cent coins and tin-plated coins.】

[The ten-cent coin was first minted in the second year of Chongning (1103). It was a large coin that could be used as ten coins. However, each coin weighed less than three coins and contained only % copper. The profit margin was %, which meant it was devalued by one third.]

[In 1104 AD, it was stipulated that only ten-cent coins could be used. As a result, shops were closed and people could not buy anything with money.]

[Since the profit from casting a ten-cent coin was several times that of a ten-cent coin, many people counterfeited it.]

[Tin-clad coins were first minted in the fourth year of Chongning (1105). They were a type of copper-tin alloy coin, weighing less than three coins each, and were used as two copper coins.]

[The use of tin-plated coins "did not bring any profit, but the goods became three times more expensive"]

[Prices are soaring, and twenty coins can only be used as one. ]

……

Tang Dynasty and Emperor Gaozu's period
Li Yuan felt a toothache from watching this.

"You are really good at making money."

"Why learn from Emperor Wu of Han and Sang Hongyang when you can learn from anyone else?"

Li Jiancheng folded his arms and sighed:

"Hu Hai's greed for pleasure and Emperor Wu's plunder of the people's wealth."

"I wonder how much he will resemble other kings who lost their country later on."

Li Shimin took a long breath.

"It's a pity that Renzong, Shenzong, and Zhezong, three generations of emperors, carried out reforms to strengthen the country."

"In the end, I ended up with this ridiculous and frivolous person who knows nothing."

……

Song Shenzong Period
"Chongning...Chongning..."

Zhao Xu paced back and forth in the pavilion, looking up at the sky from time to time.

"Is that how you worship Ning?!"

"I adore you!"

Then he looked at the pebble on the table.

……

[In the same year, paper money was issued excessively. ]

【The name of Jiaozi was changed to Qianyin, and its scope of use was expanded to all parts of the country except Fujian, Zhejiang, Huguang and Hunan.】

[In 1107, the amount of Jiaozi issued was already twenty times that of the Tiansheng period of Emperor Renzong. Because there was no cash reserve, one Qianyin was only worth a dozen copper coins.]

【The depreciation of currency has caused prices to rise. 】

[According to the Ministry of Revenue, the price of one dan of rice increased from 600 to 700 wen during the reign of Emperor Shenzong of Song to 2,500 to 3,000 wen.]

……

Great Song.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Tranquilizer!"

A royal physician with white hair and beard looked at Zhao Kuangyin's face as he sat in the pavilion.

He whispered quickly to the doctors behind him:
"The face is blue, the eyes are red and the mind is scattered."

"You must calm your mind and concentrate!"

A doctor with white temples and black beard stroked his beard and looked at it, then shook his head and said:
"Use a cathartic medicine."

"Your Majesty, you are depressed and have nowhere to vent."

"Even if you suppress it temporarily, it will recur and harm your body."

"It's better to let it all out in one breath!"

The imperial physician glanced at the sky.

"Doctor Chen is right!"

"It all depends on this person in the sky... I agree with Doctor Chen's opinion!"

“…It is indeed irrefutable.”

The imperial physician with white hair and beard thought for a moment and said in a low voice:
"Everything will be in accordance with Doctor Chen's opinion. The judgment of the Golden Purple Medical Officer will not be wrong."

……

Song Zhenzong period
"Xiao'e..."

Zhao Heng did not forget who came up with this Jiaozi.

Liu E looked unfriendly.

"What do you want to say! Can you blame me for this?!"

Zhao Heng smiled awkwardly.

"I mean, I'll do it."

"You can't control it."

Liu E glared at him fiercely. "All right! I hope you live a long life! I hope I die before you!"

"Otherwise, I'll look for my husband right after you die!"

……

【At the same time, the salt note law was changed. 】

[In April 1103, it was stipulated that merchants must first spend money to buy salt notes at Kaifeng Quhuowu, and then use the salt notes to collect salt in salt-producing prefectures and counties.]

[A merchant needs to spend three times as much money to get a batch of salt. ]

【At the same time, it was announced that all old salt notes would be invalidated. 】

【After the implementation of the two laws, the court's revenue increased by as much as 12 million guan. 】

[However, many businessmen went bankrupt, many became beggars, and some were even forced to commit suicide.]

[Zhang Yu, the chief judge of Huaidong, witnessed this tragic situation and wrote a memorial to condemn Cai Jing for his misleading reforms, which led to his demotion.]

……

The period of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty
Liu Qi blinked and suddenly realized!

"So you guys are waiting here!"

"Seize their money and use it to build a hospital to take them in!"

He turned his head to look at little Liu Che and exclaimed:

"They are more cruel than you!"

"Killing kills the heart!"

Little Liu Che held his small face to avoid his big face.

None of my business!

……

The period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty
Liu Che despised him.

Liu Che understood him.

In a trance, he seemed to see his own shadow in Song Huizong.

This frightened him so much that he broke out in a cold sweat!
"So this is what my later years will be like..."

It didn't seem like a big deal when he stated it plainly, but once the comparison was made, Liu Che realized how hateful the things he did in his later years were.

"Song Huizong is a mirror for me."

Both Wei Zifu and Huo Qubing were shocked!

"Your Majesty...you..."

Liu Che raised his hand to stop Huo Qubing from speaking, and said sternly:
"I still have to fight the Huns."

"But how and how long?"

"I need to think about it carefully."

"In short, I can't go down the old path!"

Then he glanced at the sky again and said with disgust:
"If I continue to follow the old path, I'd rather die!"

……

[Taxes were increased again. The scope of collection of some old taxes was expanded.]

[For example, transportation fees are an additional tax to the summer and autumn taxes.]

[The common people have never had this burden before, but starting from the Chongning period, they had to pay two taxes for one dou and fifty-six coins for each dou of rice. "The people even had to sell their cattle to exchange for their children, but they still couldn't make ends meet."]

[At the same time, many new taxes were added, of which the most influential was the Jingzhiqian.]

[It is stipulated that all public and private payments must pay 23 wen per string of money to the government.]

[Financial revenue thus increased by several million guan every year, but the people complained bitterly.]

[In addition, private fields were converted into public fields. The eunuch Yang Jian converted public fields in Ruzhou, "established a rent tax, called public field money", and set up a rice field business.]

[They also sold official positions and titles. The total number of officials of all levels and types reached 48,075.]

【Cai Jing and Wang Fu openly sold their official titles: "Three thousand strings of cash, direct to the Secret Council; five hundred strings of cash, promoted to Tongpan."】

【The reign of Emperor Huizong of Song was the period when the number of officials grew fastest in the history of the Song Dynasty.】

……

The period of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty
Liu Heng felt that he had gained a lot of knowledge.

Liu Qi could hardly hide the absurdity in his tone.

"Does he really not know what the Song Dynasty is like now?"

Dou Yifang poured Liu Heng a cup of tea.

"There must be someone among the civil and military officials in the court who would talk to him."

“But he did it anyway.”

Liu Qi felt like there was something stuck in his throat and he uttered the four words with difficulty.

"Deceiving yourself."

……

Yanhan·Lingdi Period
Everyone looked at Liu Hong.

Liu Hong slowly avoided everyone's sight.

"I have already reformed myself and I am no longer the same person I used to be!"

……

Song Taizong period
Zhao Kuangyi felt like he was floating again.

He could somewhat understand how Qin Shihuang felt when he saw Hu Hai.

I can also understand how Emperor Taizong of Tang felt when he beat up Emperor Xuanzong of Tang.

"Why can't I strangle him to death myself?"

Zhao Kuangyi fell into deep thought.

……

[All of these were done under the banner of restoring Xi Feng's new laws.]

[In the first year of Chongning, the labor service law was restored. Take Gongzhou as an example. During the Yuanfeng period, the people of the state paid only 400 strings of cash for labor service. After the labor service law was restored, they had to pay nearly 30,000 strings of cash, which was almost 75 times more than before.]

In the third year of Chongning, the square field law was restored. "Officials not only arbitrarily increased the land tax, but also squared the uncultivated land on the mountain", causing "people to migrate due to the square field measurement"

[The so-called equal taxation on each square field has become the increased taxation on each square field.]

……

Great Sui.

The couple was silent.

For a moment, they both felt that their beast seemed to have lost in terms of the destruction of the country.

"That beast drained the people's energy in one breath."

Yang Jian sat with his hands on his knees.

“This one is amazing.”

"He chose to drain the people from generation to generation."

……

During the Song Dynasty and Renzong Period
"Woooo..."

Zhao Zhen was so angry that he cried.

He seemed to beat the bastard to death!
But he couldn't hit it!

"Do you know how much I have devoted to the Song Dynasty?"

"Why do I have to endure the anger of these bastards in front of me every day!"

The ministers looked at each other.

Ah this...

Forget it, just pretend you didn’t hear it.

It is not easy for Your Majesty either.

……

Song Dynasty: Zhezong Period
Zhao Xu stared at the sky without moving.

Sima Guang's lips trembled a few times, but he didn't say anything about the new law that couldn't be changed.

It's useless to say anything. Once you die, the emperor will change the law anyway.

The main problem now is this Prince Duan...

Does the emperor really want to be branded as the man who killed his brother?
Should I try to dissuade him?

Sima Guang was in a dilemma.

……

Ming dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang pressed his violently twitching eyelids.

"We already knew he was a nobody."

"But I didn't expect that he would be nothing so early!"

"They really treat the people like leeks!"

Queen Ma felt sad when seeing this.

"Although the reforms of Emperor Shenzong and Emperor Zhezong were not successful, they both worked hard to maintain the Song Dynasty and eliminate the three redundant things... He should not have been in power."

……

Qing Dynasty Yongzheng Period
Strok- ing the tassel of the jade necklace, Yongzheng was in deep thought.

"The theory of reincarnation is very mysterious."

"A Ming Dynasty scholar once said: Li Houzhu lost his country, which was the most pitiful. Song Huizong was his successor."

"This Song Huizong may really be the reincarnation of Li Houzhu who came to seek revenge."

Hongli's mind wandered into the sky.

He thought of the painting of the oriole that he had seen.

I don't know whether it is feasible to ask Khan Ama for this authentic painting of Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty.

I don’t know why, but my hands suddenly felt itchy!

……

[Song Huizong was an artist. He was a famous calligrapher and painter before he ascended the throne.]

【As we all know, art costs money. 】

【The emperor, who was fed up with Cai Jing's manipulation, began to think about his art. 】

【This time, he wants to change his art. 】

【And the object of art is just an ordinary stone. 】
