Preface to "De Ze Tian Xia: Things to Talk about"

A western historian once said, "All history is the history of ideas." He feels that only by experiencing historical events and entering the thoughts behind them can we understand history. The Han Dynasty is one of the most brilliant dynasties in the history of China. In 206 BC, Liu Bang founded the Han Dynasty. Since the establishment of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang's Song of the Big Wind has sung its wild temperament. & gt& gt During the Western Han Dynasty in China, under the rule of Emperor Wendi and Emperor Jingdi, there was a "prosperous time" situation of social stability and people's prosperity, which was called "cultural governance" in history. This period is the turning point of the Han Dynasty from weak to strong, and it has a special historical position in the history of China. It laid a solid material foundation for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to conquer Xiongnu, and played an important role in the future rule of Zhenguan and the prosperous period of Kanggan. & gt& gt Lv Hou died, Liu Lianhe rose up against Lu, and anger broke out among the pack. The incompetent Lu was vulnerable and collapsed in an instant. Liu Heng, the acting king, was welcomed into Chang 'an as Emperor and Emperor Wen. In Liu Heng, under the pressure of powerful ministers and governors, Liu Heng consolidated his rule and strengthened the imperial power with extremely clever political skills. In addition, Liu Heng, the Emperor of Han Dynasty, was an emperor with political talent and general plan of governing the country in the early Han Dynasty. After 23 years in office, he pursued a policy of rest and recuperation. The main measures are as follows: 65,438+0. Further reduce taxes and corvee. 12 years, completely exempt from land rent, and the corvee is changed to once every three years. 2. Reduce punishment and abolish corporal punishment, and 3. Advocate thrift. During his reign, there was no gain in palaces, gardens, horseback riding and obedience. He also stopped working on the terrace because he cherished the property of ten people in the "Hundred Gold", so that the clothes in the harem would not mop the floor and the curtains would not be embroidered. He was cautious in politics all his life and was praised by scholars of all ages. Emperor Jing acceded to the throne, and his policy remained unchanged. He also punished the powerful ministers at home and invaded the princes abroad, causing chaos in the Seven Kingdoms. Because of the prosperity of the Han Dynasty, the rebellion was quickly put down. Wenjing Dynasty became the first flourishing age in the history of China with exact documents. & gt& gt From the perspective of ontology, historical development has its particularity. History is regular. It does not depend on people's will, but according to its own laws, destroys and goes forward bravely; History is continuous, and all its tracks are in the same strain; History is holographic. Everything is connected. Causality is connected, which can be used as a mirror today. Today can also know the past. In a word, history is not the scenery of the past, mottled footprints and traces of yellowing, but a textbook that people will never learn or read. & gt& gt "The Rule of Wenjing" tells the history of the Nomi and Jing Dynasties in the middle of Sichuan, with lively style, relaxed language, strong readability and rigorous content. It not only does not contradict the historical materials handed down from ancient times, but also quotes some of the most primitive historical materials of the Han Dynasty. I hope you can gain something in the process of reading history easily.
