Although Wang Mang had great ambitions, it was a pity that he was short of one move.
He did not expect the punishment that Heaven would impose on him later.
From my perspective, I followed Wang Mang as he grew up, just like seeing all the flavors of life. I watched him grow up day by day, watched his father and brother pass away one after another, watched him helplessly watch his loved ones leave, and watched helplessly.
Seeing the coffins taking away his loved ones for burial, he could do nothing but shed tears.
In desperation, Wang Mang reluctantly chose to go to his uncles and live with them.
The Wang family was a powerful family of relatives at that time. Not only was it huge in power, it was also extremely wealthy.
So for the small matter of adopting Wang Mang, it is nothing at all.
Because the Wang family has nine people who have been granted the title of marquis, and five of them have served as Grand Sima, it is the most noble family in the Western Han Dynasty. Therefore, many of the Wang family have become generals, marquises, and became superiors. However, following the changes in Wang Mang's perspective,
Underneath, one can find that all of them are mediocre.
They all live extravagantly, have sex, and compete with each other.
This unhealthy trend has also affected many people. As the saying goes, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, so it is the same inside and outside the military camp.
However, among the Wang family, Wang Mang was the only one who maintained purity, lived a simple life, and was humble. He was also diligent and eager to learn, and was not ashamed to ask questions. He also studied the Analects of Confucius under Chen Shen of Pei County.
At the beginning, Wang Mang really worked hard for his own goal, and paid great revenge and ideals for it. In addition, he served his mother and widowed sister-in-law, raised his brother's surviving son, behaved well, and had a rigorous style.
He served his uncles very thoughtfully at home and befriended the wise men externally.
Wang Mang is an alternative among this rich family.
However, with the Wang family as a foil, Wang Mang quickly became famous and became a moral model in the eyes of the world.
Of course, this also laid a solid foundation for the subsequent Wang Mang uprising.
Soon, the time came to the third year of Yangshuo of Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty (22 BC), and 24-year-old Wang Mang entered the central government and began to serve as an official.
Because Wang Mang was conscientious in his work and more respectful to others, many celebrities in the court at that time spoke well of Wang Mang, and Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty also thought Wang Mang was very virtuous.
With such a foundation, Wang Mang then rose up all the way, not only rising step by step, but also gradually swallowing up the emperor's power through various means.
Finally, full of ambition, he forced Wang Zhengjun to hand over the jade seal passed down to the country in December of the first year of the first year (January 15th, AD 9), accepted Ru Ziying's abdication, proclaimed himself emperor, and went to the Gaozu Temple to worship him.
The Royal Crown is the emperor's throne, and the country's name is changed to "Xin".
Wang Mang was the new ancestor, and Chang'an was renamed Chang'an, which was called "the first year of the founding of the country".
From then on, he indeed began to work hard to change all systems and regulations as he said at the beginning. However, his ambitions and methods were somewhat deviant, completely contrary to his original ideas.
So far, everything is still within the tolerance of heaven.
After all, the Western Han Dynasty was already on the verge of decline and decadence, and in history, some people had already succeeded in overthrowing the Western Han Dynasty.
Also because of Wang Mang's time travel, Wang Mang changed history and the timeline also changed slightly. The unknown person overthrew the Western Han Dynasty and became Wang Mang to overthrow the Western Han Dynasty. For the way of heaven, it doesn't matter who ends the Western Han Dynasty. What is important is that as long as the ending
As long as it's right.
Because there was no major change in history, and things were within the tolerance of Heavenly Dao, Heavenly Dao did not take action.
However, from the moment Wang Mang wanted to change the system and prevent the emergence of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Heavenly Dao began to exert its power.
First of all, although Liu Xiu was the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty in History 1, the sins Liu Xiu suffered before the founding of the country were far greater than those in History 2 (that is, after time travel).
The history that has been changed is much greater. Each battle was a desperate one, and it took more than ten years of fighting to gain some prestige and popular support.
Only the people are willing to join and resist.
Of course, it is also because Liu Xiu founded the country later in History 1, while Liu Xiu founded the country earlier in History 2.
Under the balance of heaven, the life of the Han Dynasty ended early. Although the existence time did not change, it still had some influence.
Then, in order not to affect the overall history, Tiandao increased the duration of the Three Kingdoms War and the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. This was used to make up for and balance the time.
This is something to talk about later, so I won’t mention it for now.
Of course, it was also because of Wang Mang's actions to prevent the birth of the Eastern Han Dynasty and his radical changes in thinking, Liu Xiu's life began to become as smooth as heaven-defying.
From the beginning of Wang Mang's actions, Liu Xiu was the son of the plane chosen by Heaven, and he was the one who acted for Heaven.
Starting from nothing, starting from scratch. If you don't have any manpower, go to various places for help, and there will be soldiers and horses. If you can't win the battle, meteorites will help, the enemy troops will flee, and floods will overflow.
Everything is just to destroy Wang Mang who interfered with history.
Wang Mang's ending is History Two. And History Two is the history I see now.
Because of the failure of the war, Wang Mang also died in the chaos. Although the impact on the future is indelible, it can still be undone. After all, these things are just part of people's talk after dinner. No one will always remember the loser.
Anyone is.
All the sounds stopped abruptly. What was displayed in front of me now was no longer a fixed perspective, nor was it Wang Mang's unwilling sigh before his death. Instead, it was a new distance between the screen and the screen.
The perspective of the picture also focused on the doctor and the old man again.
"Senior, I'm sorry, we failed."
The doctor turned around with an apologetic look and bowed deeply to the old man: "We still haven't succeeded in resisting the law of heaven."
"It's okay, no one's experiment is smooth sailing."
The old man waved his hands indifferently. Although there was a bit of unwillingness in his expression, he still caressed the doctor's back and said slowly: "It's okay. Look, aren't we already much closer to success?"
"sorry......"
The doctor's face was full of self-blame, and his voice became a little weaker: "I'm sorry, if I had been more thoughtful, maybe I could have successfully rewritten history,"
"It doesn't matter, we have collected important data again, right?"
The old man stroked his beard and comforted him with a smile on his face.
"Senior, is this really enough?"
The doctor asked cautiously.
"Well. We know from this incident that although the law of heaven will work, as long as you do not affect the process of history, then the law of heaven will not punish you. And history can still change slightly, and if the problem is big enough
, Heaven will not hesitate to rewrite history."
"indeed."
The doctor pushed up his glasses and looked at the big screen in the center with a serious face: "Senior, look, this is the data we collected."
"Oh? Call it out quickly."
The old man turned to look at the screen: "Now we have to analyze the ingredients of this heavenly law."
"Buzz~"
After the doctor's password was unlocked, rows of clear data analysis appeared in front of the two of them: "Senior, look, if we use the system to change their personal behavior, as long as they do not become national leaders,
important levels, or not wandering our existence
, there shouldn’t be any problems.”
"Well, and the data from this time travel is surprisingly stable. It seems that we can indeed implement that plan."
The old man breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile of emotion appeared on his face: "It seems that we are one step closer to our hope."
...
The content displayed in front of me ended abruptly.
After reading these things, I understood a lot of things instantly.
If I go by what I saw just now, I seem to understand the meaning of the way of heaven.
The way of heaven is the existence of order, the intelligent AI created for the world, which is used to manage part of the world to ensure normal operation.
"Do you understand now? No matter how much I tell you, I can only let you understand it yourself."
Ling Zifeng waved his hand gently, and the surrounding smoke dispersed, and the room returned to what it should be.
"Um..."
I nodded thoughtfully.
"Do you have any other questions?"
Ling Zifeng sat back in his seat and asked slowly.
"Then can you disable the system for me?"
I bit my lip and asked tentatively: "I don't want to be burdened with the existence of this thing anymore."
"No, I can't do it."
Ling Zifeng shook his head, with a firm look on his face.
"Why? As long as you are good enough in the second grade, everything can be solved, right?"
I spread my hands in confusion, my face full of doubts.
"No, let me tell you the truth, it's not me who can change this system, it's you."
Ling Zifeng stood up, walked slowly to my side, and patted my shoulder.
"it's me?"
I widened my eyes in confusion.
"I'm telling you, if I dismantle this system, your life will only get worse."
At this point, Ling Zifeng hugged my shoulders and explained softly: "What's more, the people who made the system are not weak. If I cancel it, not only will I get into trouble, but you may also have a stronger one."
limitations. I hope you can understand me."
"But......"
Although I wanted to fight again, listening to Ling Zifeng's words, I couldn't help but sigh with a wry smile: "But the existence of the system still makes me a little uncomfortable."
"call......"
Ling Zifeng sighed, and a look of helplessness appeared on his face for a long time: "There is no way, I hope you can cherish this time of the system, and... you are the one who can change the existence of the system, remember."
"ok, I get it."
I slumped down on his bed in frustration, with a decadent look on my face, but my mind couldn't help but start thinking about the profound meaning of Ling Zifeng's words.
"However, I can tell you something else."
Ling Zifeng looked at my decadent look and couldn't help but smile and sigh.
"for example?"
I blinked.
"You can ask something less relevant to your own problem."
Ling Zifeng slowly raised a finger, with a smile on his face: "For example, about such wonderful topics as the planet and the world, maybe I will be interested in answering it for you?"
