He nodded: "Although it is not successful, there is some reason. Do you know that there will always be dynasty replacements in my Chinese civilization for thousands of years?" Li Zhi subconsciously grinned after hearing my question: "Brother Jun, it's not that I deliberately make things difficult for you. You often use this problem to trouble me. For example, last time you said that dynasty replacements are related to the inaction of the emperor and the corruption of the administration. Another time you said that the demise of the dynasty has a lot to do with land annexation. How can everything be related to this?"

"Hmph, if your father hears this, it would be strange if he doesn't slap you!" I gave Li Zhi a blank look, picked up tea from the table, took a sip of it, moistened his throat and continued: "The change of dynasty is related to corruption in the administration, land annexation, and also to the emperor's own inaction or rebellion, and also to education. That's because the change of dynasty is not a simple problem that can be explained clearly in one sentence, but is entangled in many aspects, and then, at a certain opportunity, the problem breaks out..."

Looking at Li Zhi who was listening attentively, I continued: "From the records of historical books, you should also know some of the Former Qin, Han, Sui, and those surging eras. At the beginning of the founding of the country, that dynasty did not emerge in many heroes, the early days of that dynasty were not prosperous, the country was prosperous, the people were blessed, the literature dared to advise death, and the martial arts could fight to the death..."

This is not just a question about hope or not, but more involves political issues. Why do every empire have to go like this after hundreds of years of reincarnation? Is it just that the sky is dead and the yellow sky is established, and what other five virtues always say nonsense? Wrong. That is because the country and local institutions have become corrupt and there is no hope for progress.

Or it should be said that when the country reached its peak of prosperity, they lost their enterprising spirit, no longer had the gaze to move forward, and lost hope, and gradually, they passed by. The entire court turned from top to bottom into an old man who only knew how to miss the glorious past of the empire, which was also an important reason for the rise and fall of an empire.

"If you want to talk about the old and young people of the country, please speak first of the old and young people. The elderly always think about the past. Young people always think about the future. Only think about the past. Therefore, they are nostalgic; only think about the future. Therefore, they have a hopeful heart. Only nostalgic, so conservative; only hope, so enterprising. Only conservative, so old forever; only enterprising. Therefore, they are new every day... The elderly are like willows after autumn, young people are like grass before spring. The elderly are like the Dead Sea as a husk, and young people are like the first origin of the Yangtze River. This is a general idea of ​​the different personalities of the elderly and young people.

Therefore, it is said: People are inherent in it, and the country is suitable for the same. What does it mean? It means that the country is like a young man. Only then has vitality. The country is like an old man. Over time, the country is to rely on those who come from behind to grow up from generation to generation to make their due contributions to the country! Those in power in the court also must maintain the longing and hope of the youth. They must have a long-term vision and cannot stop moving forward. Otherwise, they will gradually grow old in the years like life... People are like this. The country is like this!" I stood up, raised my hands, and said in a constant state of waves. This young Chinese saying was the favorite of my young master when he was an angry young man. Whenever he recited it, he would be happy and encouraged. However, his survival was difficult, and in the end, he was still a poor teacher who was in the vast world.

The young master had long forgotten most of the original text, but the beginning of this article was like a revelation, and he could read it happily outside the country, so he remembered clearly what it was. Keep his posture and glanced at Li Zhi with a squinted corner. The poor prince looked very shocked and his expression was a little confused. However, I could see a trace of brilliance in his eyes.

"Master, what you mean is that no matter it is a dynasty or a king, you must have a vigor and enterprising spirit. You must not slack off..." Li Zhi was finally able to understand my painstaking efforts, which made me feel relieved that his education over the years has finally been in vain.

I patted Li Zhi on the shoulder, looked at the praiseworthy eyes, and said kindly to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty in the future: "So, youth is the hope of the country. Why do you need to educate your children when you are young? It is because of this reason, but why do you insist on letting the people of the world understand the truth and make things wrong? Do you know why? That's because this will be good for the world and for the Tang Dynasty."

Li Zhi's head could not turn, but it didn't matter, I'll explain it. There is a very touching description in "The Family of Chen Sheng" in "Records of the Grand Historian", which is a collection of books, lights the lamps and fires at night, and learns the continuous story of "The Revival of the Great Chu" and Chen Sheng as the king.

What is this? In later generations, two scammers with low IQs, but in this era it is different, because there are so many fools.

Even if they are afraid of ghosts and gods, they cannot tell right from wrong, let alone point out that they are pretending to be on the primary school campus of later generations. After these two people pretend to behave like this, they will only receive countless rolling eyes and middle fingers.

It was through the use of fraud that he played with nine hundred garrison soldiers in his hands. Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's uprising was the first peasant uprising. In the next two thousand years, each peasant uprising had used this technique more or less. Whether it was the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the White Lotus Sect or the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, in short, why did they succeed? Why?

"The first point is that the people are foolish. Of course, the teacher does not say that it is not related to other factors, but other factors are just related to this. If the people are not foolish, how can officials act in front of the people? If the soldiers are not foolish, why do they have the act of eating empty wages and raising flags to stand on the hills in the army?" It is still a continuous question. In many cases, I use questions to ask educated people in a row with thought-provoking way. Because this makes it more difficult for them to answer them as soon as possible.

Then, he will inevitably think about how to answer my questions, but the answers to these questions are exactly the fundamental thing I hope he can understand.

Li Zhi fell into deep thought. Well, he did not answer the question as I did when I asked the question at the beginning, or he was absent-mindedly talking about him, because what I am going to talk about now is the relationship between the rise and fall of the dynasty and whether the people should be fooled. It is very important and thought-provoking. At least in the history books I have read over the years, no one has noticed it, or it should be said that these people deliberately ignore this issue.

"...If the fraud is successful, the deceived must be stupid, which seems to be an indispensable condition. That is, one of the primary conditions for fooling all people in the world is that the people must be fooled. However, one day, those foolish people who know it will always wake up. At that moment, those who are complacent and think they have fooled the world will become ridiculous people who cover up their ears and thieves." I sneered.

"My master's words are very good, and he steals the bells. It turns out that he is robbing the bells. During the previous dynasty, Emperor Yang of Sui, he abused the people's power, but he still had to whitewash the peace of the world in front of his vassal state. This is just like Master's words." Li Zhi sighed softly with his palms. His expression seemed quite solemn. After all, he was not a fool. After so many years of education and influence, at least he could understand my painstaking efforts, thinking patterns and the way of analyzing things.

Therefore, if the most important thing of the state machine is to guide and educate them to what should be done and what should not be done. Of course, that is to educate, to enlighten the wisdom of the people, and to let them understand how difficult it is for them to live such a happy and peaceful life under the rule of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

If you feel that there are unsatisfactory things, it doesn’t matter. You can go to the heaven to listen. You can also become a member of this society through hard work. Through your efforts, you can eliminate or modify those unsatisfactory things. After all, the society is developing, and under this premise, the system is likely to have loopholes and appear. Then you need to have a pioneering and enterprising attitude to see the essence of things and try every means to improve the system.

After saying a lot, Li Zhi also learned a lot from it. In the end, Li Zhi simply feared that he would not remember it, so he picked up the paper and pen and tried hard to write down my words. This was the way I repeatedly told Li Zhi and other princes countless times. It was a good memory and would never be as good as a bad pen.

"The growth period of youth is the most important. They received patriotic education and loyalty to the emperor, so that they understood that the Tang Empire, a country, was so amazed that through public opinion, the people of the world could clearly understand their honor, rights and responsibilities. At this time, with the bright eyes of thousands of students, how could officials dare to deceive their subordinates and hide their superiors? How could those with ulterior motives incite the people and do things that harm the interests of the country?
