"According to some declassified documents, during the Yonghe period, the Crazy Party may have been so crazy that the Holy Ancestor secretly sent people to push them behind the scenes." The professor on the podium talked about this history and then said.

"This statement needs to be verified, but some of the banking department's instigation from that time was indeed the Shengzu who sent someone to instigate Sun Jue."

"But we cannot deny the greatness of the Saint Ancestor. The power of the Shao Party was too strong back then. In addition, Wuzong always wanted to use the method of balance and the art of ancestral disturbances, which led to Wang Jiefu and the Saint Ancestor constantly compromise. If they are not broken or established, they can only establish a new order by completely breaking them."

"So some people discuss that the Holy Ancestor is using the sword of darkness to hold the heart of light. Please pay attention to this point. The means can be dark, but the heart cannot be dark..."

Nearly two hundred years have passed since the Yonghe Party struggle. During these two hundred years, the other side has been firmly implementing the policy of Wang Ju. Those who do not agree with the Central Plains will be killed without mercy. This is also the most important system on the other side. After Shaosheng, the Song Dynasty also intends to maintain a good relationship with the other side, and even the kings marry the princess of the Song Dynasty, which makes the people on the other side always regard the Song Dynasty as a formality. In fact, although the other side divides the Three Kingdoms, it is clearly stipulated that these Three Kingdoms are the surrogate countries of the Central Plains dynasty. The lords of the Three Kingdoms only call themselves kings, not emperors, monarchs, and emperors. Although everyone respects Wang Ju very much, they only say that the Holy Ancestors, not the Holy Emperors.

Of course, the constitutional monarchy system on the other side was unlimitedly decentralized, and the priests changed to the system of changing the term. Everyone lost the ambition to become kings and dominate the system. In addition, the system established by Wang Ju, there was no soil for ambition for the Central Plains dynasty.

Under this good relationship, the Song Dynasty also encouraged the landless people to migrate to the other shore, causing the other shore to prosper rapidly. Of course, this also alleviated the population pressure of the Song Dynasty.

However, with the help of the other shore and the improvement of transportation, the Song Dynasty successively destroyed the Liao Kingdom, Hei Khan, Khlar Miaozi, and Tubo tribes, making the territory surpass that of the Tang Dynasty's peak.

However, because of the long time of its founding, the politics of the Song Dynasty deteriorated again, with serious annexation, and severe differences in the rich and poor. The ministers and soldiers were very peaceful and friendly. They were almost at the end of their illness. Even if the other shore continues to help, they could not prevent this trend from spreading and expanding. On the contrary, many people within the Song Dynasty believed that the other shore was to rule the king with their ministers, and believed that the other shore was interfering in the internal affairs of the Song Dynasty and overwhelming the Song Dynasty, resulting in many ministers becoming increasingly opposed to the other shore.

Even the other side gradually gave up the Song Dynasty, and some people with long-term vision began to prepare for the new dynasty.

However, because Wang Ju left some prophecies, the other side had long been mentally prepared for the Song Dynasty today.

But this foundation cannot be denied. It is precisely because the Song Dynasty was strong for a long time before and the other side was attached to the Song Dynasty, that it was able to develop rapidly. It also because of the unification of the two hundred years, the Song Dynasty's economy developed rapidly and various technologies also developed rapidly. It almost joined hands with the other side to enter the early stage of industrial civilization. Capitalism within the Song Dynasty officially emerged, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent new dynasty.

The gains are worth learning from, and the losses are worth learning from. Three continents punished the situation of the Song Dynasty and successively increased the inheritance tax by 20%. Each household did not need to pay inheritance tax within the standard property, but the excess amount must be paid 20% of the money or the government sent someone to calculate it, and 20% of the property will be processed by the government before it can inherit the inheritance of the father and use it to combat hereditary, monopoly and mergers.

This inheritance tax was a tax reform initiated by Wang Ju in the Shaosheng period. The first thing that was reformed was commercial tax. The over-tax in commercial tax was not moved, but the tax was greatly adjusted. For people's livelihood, the tax was only 2% to 4%, such as grain, only 2%. Various pit mines were between 4% and 8%, and various alcohol and luxury goods reached 10%. The Maritime Bureau also adjusted its external or imported commercial goods, and only 5% of people's livelihood. Luxury goods, such as the Song Dynasty's base rate, were 10%, but tax evaders would impose severe penalties. Household land tax was also different from the Song Dynasty. A standard was set on the other side. Ordinary private houses were not taxed. If they were higher than this standard, the tax rate was levied from one thousand to two thousand per year. One thousand was to evaluate someone. Those who contributed to the country and society could enjoy this qualification, otherwise it would be 2000.

The second is the inheritance tax. Wang Ju raised it to 15%, but also set a standard to evaluate the house, land, and all other assets in this person's family. Ordinary families do not have to pay the inheritance tax. However, above this standard, they must pay the inheritance tax of 15%. However, some families are all real estate, so they can be repaid one after another within ten years according to the bank's minimum loan rate. If more than ten years, someone will be sent to forcefully cut off their property and auction it.

These systems are aimed at everyone, including Wang Ju himself. If he dies, his property will be distributed to his three sons. Even if it is the property of the royal family, he will also have to pay inheritance tax. At the same time, the two taxes will be further reduced. Some martyrs, filial sons, good people, teachers, etc. will all be exempted from their two taxes, but this does not include officials.

Then another rule was made that if the children of officials are connected to each other, their children cannot enter the officialdom. If the children of officials are connected to each other, or if the children of local powerful and wealthy people are connected to each other, the officials themselves cannot enter the provincial officialdom. That is, if they want to hold provincial official positions, their children must marry poor children to fight hereditary.

After these systems were introduced, some wealthy people began to return, and the inheritance tax was too high.

The other side did not stop it, but it was the return of these people that began to bring the situation on the other side to the Central Plains.

At this time, the relationship between the Song Dynasty and the other shore became better and better. The other shore intended to relax forty or fifty states and allowed the Song Dynasty to dispatch officials. Therefore, the Song Dynasty intentionally sent several officials to come and temper.

Look at how difficult it is to be an official on the other side, and look at how comfortable it is to be your official, so should you serve more for the court?

In fact, it is not as difficult as the Song Dynasty imagined. As long as you are not greedy or make serious mistakes, as long as you have a similar official in one generation, you can guarantee that three generations of people can live a better life. Even in this system on the other side, officials will eventually be officials, and there are many superiorities. It can only be said that they are much better than those of the Song Dynasty.

However, after the tempering of the other shore, as long as the officials sent to study hard, they will usually become good officials after returning. Even in the 100 years of the Song Dynasty's "super gold" period, nine prime ministers had the experience of going to the other shore to become officials. However, a hundred years after Shaosheng, the Song Dynasty had no opponents and gradually moved forward.

Moreover, with his disgust of the other shore, the Song Dynasty made a more wrong move and ordered another edict that the people would not be moved.

This is a fatal mistake. Although with the help of the other side, many new technologies emerged, including various grain seeds, and Liaodong was fully developed, the Song Dynasty reached nearly 60 million households at this time. Coupled with the exploitation of officials and powerful people, various contradictions intensified, which finally led to the outbreak of this great uprising.

The system on the other side is not perfect, but the other side is too vast. Although its own population is rapidly reproductive, millions of households have migrated from the Song Dynasty in the middle of 100 years, the population base is too small. So far, the total population is less than 200 million people, and the increase in grain output will take at least four hundred years before a land and population crisis may occur. But by then, the other side may have long entered "modernization".

As the news came, a major uprising that almost swept across the country occurred in the Song Dynasty. What makes people funny is that these rebels brought all the inconsistent systems on the other side. The news came to the other side, and many people were ridiculous. Although it was a good thing, it also gave the other side a warning. After hearing this, the three royal families quickly reduced their expenses and donated nearly half of the industries to use them to provide disaster relief and poverty alleviation in various continents.

Three continents also announced that those who are engaged in business with officials must strictly examine them. Those who have children as officials must start from the grassroots level, and when promoting promotion, they must undergo stricter political performance assessments, so as to avoid the protection of officials and officials as they did in the Song Dynasty due to their kindness and marriage, and quickly declined.

Because of this, the professors in the college once again took out this history and started teaching repeatedly.

Wang Ju's life was not completely open and honest. For example, in the Battle of Yongle City, all signs proved that Wang Ju might have known in advance that the Song Dynasty would attack Xia, and that after the attack Xia, he would fail. Moreover, no one dared to underestimate Wang Ju, so he became a saint, such as science. After Wang Ju got old, he turned everything on the other side into three, began to write books and study with peace of mind, and then left behind many theorems, formulas and hypotheses. The advancement of science on the other side was achieved by scholars who continued to study these theorems and hypotheses left by Wang Ju and succeeded. As long as you follow these hypotheses, there will be some progress, but if you want to bypass these hypotheses, there will be no progress.

But without Wang Ju's silence, Zhao Xu would not be able to delegate power to Wang Ju. There would also be no possibility of Wang Ju's successful reform, and it would be even more impossible to destroy Xixia and defeat Liao Kingdom, laying the foundation for the later recovery of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun.

And in Gao Taotao's administration, Wang Ju may have a secret role in promoting it.

If Gao Taotao, Wen Yanbo, Liu Zhi and others were not allowed to go crazy, the upper elites of the Song Dynasty would not be completely disappointed with the Shuo Party. Then Zhao Xu took power, Zhang Dun and Zhang Shangying took power, and the Shuo Party's forces were still wandering over the Song Dynasty like a demonic shadow. Zhang and Zhang could not completely restore Wang Ju's restructuring, and could not concentrate their efforts to capture the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun in one fell swoop.

Of course, there is a prerequisite for this, that is, Wang Ju did too successfully in the front. The more successful the front, the more crazy the latter, the more it will form a sharp contrast.

Wang Ju's possible promotion effect made the Shuo Party even more crazy and made many people in the Song Dynasty live in poverty in those years. This was a darker method than watching the devastating defeat in Yongle City. But if you don't do this, you will even force Wang Ju to break your promise and have to return to the Song Dynasty to preside over the overall situation. If you really don't care about the other side? The important thing is undoubtedly the Song Dynasty, but the important thing in the future is the other side. This will be related to the fate of the entire ethnic group in the future...

It was this method that led the Song Dynasty to enter a long era of revival. Without a revival of the Song Dynasty, the other side could not flourish. After all, the other side was sparsely populated and limited resources, including trade, and it had to rely on the Song Dynasty to continue to develop. Of course, the gold, silver, minerals, and technology on the other side also added to the long rise of the Song Dynasty.

This is a perfect and long era of win-win results.

So the professor said that means can be dark, but the heart cannot be dark...

After the professor finished speaking, he announced the get out of class was over. Some students continued to open the books and read the history behind them.

…………

In recent years, all ministers have always regarded Zhao Xu as a child who knows nothing and do whatever he wants.

But how could an ordinary boy who could read the Analects of Confucius be compared to a seven-year-old? Besides, Wang Ju taught him step by step for so long.

However, in order to prevent accidents, Zhao Xu had to endure it. Even if these people forced their fiancée to divorce her and forced her to remarry others, he would still smile at these people.

Thinking of this, the more he spoke, the sharper he spoke: "Dawei, have you ever studied from Zhang Zai?"

Lu Dafang cannot be considered Zhang Zai's student, but he did ask Zhang Zai for some time to learn. He has no limits in his knowledge and a master is his teacher. Therefore, to some extent, Lu Dafang can be considered Wang Ju's senior brother, at least the two of them have nothing to do with each other.

However, this is the most ridiculous thing.

Some of them were wronged by Lu Dafang. He, Fan Chunren, Lu Gongzhu, Wang Cun and others belonged to the old party, but they were all moderate old parties. They were not radical in their means and acted cruelly. In recent years, Lu Dafang played some restrictive roles in the court and prevented the country from further deteriorating, although this restriction may not be what Wang Ju liked.

However, Lu Dafang did make three serious mistakes.

Because he and Zhang Dun were always in disagreement, when Liang Tao attacked Zhang Dun, he did not rescue Zhang Dun. On the contrary, he took the blame, causing the situation to escalate. Soon, the Zhang Party, the Cai Party, and the Anshi Party appeared again.

Later, Liu Zhi and the others made a fuss again. Although Lu Dafang had fought, he was afraid of Wen Yanbo and Liu Zhi's power and did not fight. Therefore, many famous generals on the front line deposed the south together, and Kumamoto died because of this. Not to mention Wang Ju in this list, You Shixiong and Zhong Shidao were both students of Zhang Zai.

Even if you can't abolish the public for personal gain, Lu Dafang has little hatred with the new party, so he can see more thoroughly. But did he stand on the position of the Song Dynasty to stop the party members from doing the rebellious actions?

Fortunately, Wang Ju's arrangement caused the two rebellions of the Liao Kingdom to drag down their pace. Otherwise, the Liao army would have been angry and panic when the army was on the front line of the Song Dynasty. When the army was in turmoil, the army would go south and the Song Dynasty would have serious dangers.

The last one, if he had not dared to do anything because of the constraints of Wen Yanbo and Liu Zhi and others, Wen Yanbo later stepped down and Liu Zhi and others were demoted from the court, Fan Chunren was recalled again, and Lu Dafang and Fan Chunren worked together to make trouble in time, but the two were helpless in the face of the defeat of the country and the quarrel in the court, so they lost the best opportunity to rectify their reputation.

But it's not over yet.

The imperial court had just issued an edict to investigate the Duan Tianshui case, and someone came to beat the drum and complained about the injustice.

In order to treat Gouhe, Wen Yanbo and others ceded Heishan and Wudu Army to the Liao Kingdom.

In fact, it is really impossible to cut off. Wang Ju occupied Hetao and used Yinshan Heishan and the Yellow River as natural dangers. However, this area is very large, so Wang Ju built the Great Wall and many forts to increase its defense.

Although it cannot be described as a solid wall, because of this, if the Liao Kingdom wants to break through these defense lines, there will inevitably be heavy casualties. Considering this factor, the Liao Kingdom will not easily send troops to Hetao.

Then the northwest was also protected. At the same time, the Song Dynasty could easily exchange a large number of war horses, livestock, and fur from the Zubu people and the Baidadan people, and could even easily instigate the relationship between these tribes and the Liao Kingdom, allowing them to rebel continuously and weaken the Liao Kingdom's strength.

However, this cut had no natural danger to rely on, which also meant that Wang Ju spent so much money, manpower, and the fortifications built had lost half of their effect.

Everyone only knows its military value, but they didn't expect that something happened behind it.

There were 100,000 troops scattered on the five routes of the north edge of Shaanxi, but the number of troops was less than 30,000. The remaining ones were more than 30,000 border troops. More than 7,000 foreign troops were selected from the nomadic peoples who were affiliated with the Song Dynasty in the north and south Hetao, as well as the Zhe family army, and the Poche army of the Lingxia two routes.

In addition to these troops, there are also some archers and strong men and horses, but they are all militia-like. At most, they are exempt from land tax and are not paid. They cannot be considered formal officers and soldiers.

The Wudu Army also housed more than 3,000 border troops, some of which were immigrants from the Song Dynasty, while the rest were Han people from the Liao Dynasty who had originally settled, accounting for almost half of the Wudu Army's households.

The Song Dynasty ceded it to the Liao Kingdom, and Liang Shisu, the new magistrate of Shengzhou, ordered the soldiers and civilians of the whole province to retreat to the rear. First, the imperial guards retreated smoothly, but the retreat of so many soldiers and civilians caused chaos. At this moment, the Liao army suddenly crossed the Yellow River and came to hand over, pointing at these people and saying, "They are all our Khitan people and are not allowed to move."

Liang Shisu did not dare to refute, so the Liao army successfully controlled the Wudu army and occupied part of Fengzhou and nearly half of the boundaries of Shengzhou. However, these border troops, especially the immigrant border soldiers, had weapons in their hands, so some bloody soldiers took the initiative to stand up to resist, but the dragons were headless and retreated step by step. Some people asked Liang Shisu for help, but Liang Shisu remained silent. So all these resistances were suppressed, and then the Liao Kingdom took all these border troops to the rear. Only the Liao people knew where they were taken.

However, some people escaped by chance. A few of them came to the capital and prepared to complain. However, they didn't dare to speak out when they heard all the things in the court.

It was not until Zhang Zhang and others were transferred back to the capital one after another and the emperor took power that these people felt the time had come, beat the drum of Deng Weng and sued Liang Shisu.

If it is difficult for the people to sue the official, they will first have to be beaten dozens of major slaughters. However, the relatives of these people were also taken to the Liao Kingdom, and their whereabouts were unknown, so they ignored them. After they were beaten, they reported the situation one by one and then burst into tears.

Zhao Xu said, it has never happened since ancient times.

Then I added, crazy!

Only then did the liquidation really begin. The court issued an edict to thoroughly investigate the Kumamoto case. The eunuch who forced Kumamoto to go south with illness was in the palace. But a eunuch would be so bold to tell you the instigator behind the scenes. Then he thoroughly investigated the Shen Kuo case. Who sent someone to make a rumor in Zunyi Army? After thoroughly investigated the Huazhen case, what courage did these yamen runners to torture a magistrate of the country to death halfway.

Then he gave Kumamoto, Shen Kuo, Hua Qin, Duan Tianshui and others a favorable family.

As the cleaning began, more than 200 people were demoted, nearly half of the officials were almost completely removed from their positions and were taken to the south to resettle. Yongzhou is a good place. Liu Zhi, please go to this good place. Half of them went to the south and stayed in the south.

Zhang Feng and others were also transferred back one after another.

It was not over yet, and the court then released the Yonghe treacherous ministers list, led by Wen Yanbo, with a total of 46 people. All the "treacherous ministers" on this list not only had their official positions exposed, but their children would never be favored. Those who have children would immediately dismiss all their official positions.

This is what is deadly. Why these officials are becoming more and more powerful is the system of the Song Dynasty. Lao Tzu became an official, his son became an official, and his grandson could also become an official. This is what Wang Ju said about hereditary. In addition, the mutual connection between officials formed a huge network of insatiable desires, which sucked away all the flesh and blood of the Song Dynasty like a blood-sucking insect.

But unlike in history, this liquidation and cleaning is far better than another time and space, but many powerful people applaud.

Because at this point, the military and political affairs of the Song Dynasty have been completely destroyed, just like the banking department’s stocks, who have not seen dividends for two years, and even their capital has shrunk by more than half. In this case, how can they not hate the Kyushang Party?

This is what Wang Ju said without destruction or establishment.

There is also an idiom called "Fight but not break".

The best example is Washington, which raised 300 slaves and accounted for two percent of the country's income. This is a very terrible number. Just like the annual income of the Celestial Empire, the annual income of about one hundred thousand billion yuan, then the annual net income of two percent is more than 200 billion yuan! It is not scary to have money, but this person is even more stingy than Zhou Papi. At that time, the United States had just experienced wars, and many people were so poor that they could not even eat. This guy didn't take any money to help the people. What's more funny is that he once told his family that he would not allow his family to bury him when he died, in case he would come back to life again...

There was also the great Comrade Lincoln, who gave the order to massacre the Indians.

However, from the perspective of white Americans, their achievements are far greater than their faults and they are still American heroes.

So Zhang Xun ate human flesh, Yue Fei had a bad temper, Taizu did make a mistake in his later years, but they were also heroes. The opposite example is Zhao Gou. In fact, Zhao Gou is good at internal governance and lives a frugal life, but he is a foolish monarch!

No one is perfect. You can make mistakes in small directions, but you can't make mistakes in large directions. The same is true in the political arena. No matter which country, there are struggles. But this struggle must have a certain bottom line. This bottom line can also be said to not cause human life, or it can be said that no matter how you fight, it cannot endanger the country.

In recent years, the Party has done too much and has already made great strides to cross this bottom line. If the original time and space were not very different, many people would not be able to detect it, but in this time and space, the contrast between the front and back is too large.

After months of purge, almost all the backbone of the old party was expelled, especially the list of more than 40 treacherous ministers. Because their qualifications were cancelled, it also meant that more than 30 official families would fall to the end. Perhaps they had successors and had their posts, but they would not have been smooth sailing in the officialdom.
To be continued...
