Wang Miaoyin's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly: "Why don't everyone in your world believe that the emperor is a herdsman on behalf of heaven and is ordered by heaven? I actually want to know how to make everyone not believe this.
.In my understanding, not only the Central Plains, not only our Han world, but also the barbarians from all over the world, also believe in this set of myths that kingship is divinely authorized and that rulers are the incarnation of gods."
Liu Yu said calmly: "Then how do you, the children of aristocratic families, believe that the emperor is not the son of God, or a god sent by God to rule all peoples?"
Wang Miaoyin nodded: "Because we have read a lot of books and know that these so-called supernatural phenomena are mostly made up to fool and deceive the illiterate villagers and women. The less knowledge and culture, the easier it is to become superstitious.
, in fact, to put it bluntly, by using people’s awe and strong power, you can make those low-level people who have no access to things at the top believe that the emperor is really the true dragon and emperor who is destined by destiny."
"As long as the people believe that the emperor is the real dragon emperor, then the officials he appoints at all levels, from the prime minister to the village chief, will become a whole system that represents the herdsmen. In the eyes of the people, the government will no longer be a tool to oppress them, but a tool to oppress them.
It is a whole system used by God to manage them, so they dare not resist and just accept it. As for our high-ranking family, because we are too close to the emperor, even his statement about being ordered by God to scare the common people is all us.
I made it up, of course I know what’s going on, so how can I believe it?”
Liu Yu said with a smile: "That's it, because you are knowledgeable and educated, and you even made up these lies yourself, so you won't believe these claims, and monopolize knowledge so that more than 90% of the people don't even know big characters.
If they don’t even know how to write their own names, they will naturally become ignorant and superstitious, believe in destiny, and be willing to be enslaved and ruled.”
Wang Miaoyin sighed: "I kind of understand why you want to start a prologue. In fact, it is just the beginning for you to educate the Jingba brothers and the children of the heroes. Your real purpose is to give it to all ordinary people in the future.
Children should all have the opportunity to receive education, read and learn calligraphy, because you want every child of ordinary people to have the opportunity to join the army and serve the country, and in turn, give them the right to receive education in return. When they all understand these principles, they will no longer
If you believe in some fairy emperor, then treat the rulers as human beings instead of gods. The kind of submissiveness that is willing to be ruled and enslaved will no longer exist, and the leaders of Guizhou will become citizens of your time.
, yes or no?”
Liu Yu said seriously: "Yes, that's it. In our world, it actually took less than a few decades from the end of the emperor's rule to the establishment of such a people's republic. However, in the entire world at that time,
There are many countries, especially in the far west. There are many powerful countries. They have completed this kind of enlightenment of the people's wisdom and ideological enlightenment one step earlier than us. The people have long disbelieved in the king's rule, so like Shang Yang
The same as the reform, taking the lead in reform and strengthening the country, our dynasty was in danger of national destruction and annihilation, so for nearly a hundred years, our people were thinking about how to save the nation and strengthen themselves."
Wang Miaoyin was a little surprised: "What? There are actually foreign nations that can destroy China? Is it worse than the Yongjia Rebellion?"
Liu Yu's mind recalled the era before time travel, the unforgettable modern history before the founding of New China. He felt sad in his heart and sighed: "Yes, to use the words in our national anthem at that time, the Chinese nation
The most dangerous moment has come. For more than a hundred years, various countries have invaded one after another. Our dynasty at that time was called the Qing Dynasty. By the end of the Qing Dynasty, it was also incompetent and lifeless. In terms of military and technology, it was far behind the Qing Dynasty.
Apart from having a large number of people and a large land, it has no merits."
"In the past hundred years, the Western powers thousands of miles away, the Tsarist Empire in the north, and the Japanese country in the east, which is now the Yamatai Kingdom, have continuously invaded China. We are really in danger of national subjugation and annihilation.
Even in terms of culture, like the Yongjia Rebellion, these barbarians just occupied our place, but their culture was backward. They had to learn our words and wear our clothes, and finally were assimilated by us. But in the place where I am
In that world, a hundred years ago, even Chinese culture might have been replaced by Western culture."
Wang Miaoyin covered her mouth in surprise and shook her head in disbelief: "Thousands of miles away? My God, how did those Western powers come here? And the north, aren't they barbarians from the grasslands? How could there be an extra Tsarist Empire?
?Aren’t those tribes in Yamatai in the East so powerful that they could invade the Celestial Empire in later generations? What you’re talking about, I really wouldn’t dare to dream about.”
Liu Yu sighed: "Because we in China later restricted ourselves to the rule of imperial power and only talented people, and even used a method called the imperial examination. Officials were only selected from the noble family. Even today's military merits are awarded, and officials are awarded with titles.
The model is gone, which has completely cut off the way for ordinary people to rise. Now you only use these methods to let the children of aristocratic families get titles and official positions. After the imperial examination, the landlords of every village can rely on
Monopolizing the entire village's land with the title deed, and then allowing one's own children to take the imperial examinations to gain fame, and then rule the village from generation to generation, we, the Chinese, have been stuck in our own ways since then, with no enterprising spirit, and no progress or development in technology."
"Looking at the Western barbarians, after they reformed and became stronger, they desperately expanded outwards and invented large sailing ships that could travel across the four seas. They traveled tens of thousands of miles to China. Wherever they passed, all the countries and tribes were conquered.
It conquered, enslaved, and its people were sold as slaves, worked as cattle and horses for them, worked hard to mine, and then relied on these mines to transport them back to the country to maintain their production and keep their soldiers and horses strong so that they could conquer everywhere."
Wang Miaoyin said with some disbelief: "Isn't production just about farming and weaving? If you say you want to capture people and transport them back to your home country to be enslaved and make them farm, I believe this, but those mines have to be transported thousands of miles away to be produced.
, what’s the point of this?”
Liu Yu smiled slightly and thought to himself, it is knowledge that determines the level of vision. Even Miao Yin, who is the most intelligent person in this world and this era, cannot understand the knowledge of the industrial revolution and steam engines. It seems that this span of nearly two thousand years,
It can really change the world, and isn’t this how human progress, from technology to cognition, keeps pace with the times?
