For the People, His Majesty Is a Wise Ruler Through the Ages
"Which Emperor?"
When everyone saw how serious Jiang Fan was, they were already itching to ask.
Seeing how anxious they were, Jiang Fan no longer kept them in suspense and blurted out,""The Great Tang's ruler, His Majesty, Li Shimin.”
This time, he directly called out Li Shiming's name without any hesitation.
However, these disrespectful words didn't make Li Shiming angry. Instead, it made him fall into shock and joy.
"Why?!" Li Shi Min couldn't help but ask as he looked at Jiang Fan with joy.
Looking at the excited Old Li, Jiang Fan frowned and said,""I say, Old Li, although your surname is Li, why are you so excited? Those who didn't know better would think that you were the current emperor.”
These words rang out.
Everyone's pupils constricted, thinking that they had given themselves away.
Especially Li Shi Min, he was shocked, thinking that his identity had been exposed.
"Cough cough…Wasn't this the same surname? I'm proud too." Soon, Li Shiming returned to his normal self and immediately gave an excuse.
The others also laughed along."That's right, that's right. Old Li is very proud of his surname. When he heard you praise His Majesty so much, he couldn't help but be a little excited.”
Hearing their words, Jiang Fan's doubts disappeared and he answered.
"Why do I say that the previous two emperors are inferior to the current Emperor?”
"This isn't flattery, but the truth.”
"Precisely speaking."
"As a clansman, Qin Shi Huang's magnanimity can be said to be an eternal emperor.”
"As the ruler of the country, the might of Han Wu can be called the eternal Martial Emperor.”
"However, when it comes to serving the people, Your Majesty can be called Emperor Ming.”
He finished speaking.
Everyone could not help but ponder.
These words were actually very easy to understand.
As a nation, the First Emperor's words could be said to be the most magnanimous person in history. There was no doubt that he would be called the Great Emperor of the ages.
As for the country, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was brave and good at fighting. He opened up the borders and conquered a huge territory for the people of China, so that outsiders did not dare to harass them.
However, when it came to Li Shi Min, who believed that the people were the rulers, everyone wanted to know why Jiang Fan thought so.
"Brother Jiang," Fang Xuanling said,"why do you think His Majesty is a wise ruler?" Although His Majesty cares about the world, isn't this a little too much?”
Fang Xuanling wasn't trying to sabotage him.
Rather, from his current perspective, he truly felt that it was a bit far-fetched to associate Li Shimin with the wise ruler of the past.
He finished speaking.
Before Jiang Fan could reply.
Li Shimin said with a Guanzhong accent,"What do you know? You don't know anything and you're just spouting nonsense here, quietly listening to Brother Jiang's rambling!”
Li Shimin was unhappy.
Of course, it was normal for him to be unhappy.
Jiang Fan was bragging until he felt like he was floating in the air, and then you came over to tear him down, and you still think that I'm not worthy??
Aren't you deliberately causing trouble?
Fang Xuanling wasn't afraid at all after hearing Li Shiming's words. Instead, he snorted twice through his nostrils, as if to say,"Your Majesty, you've gone too far."
And this was the strangest style of the Great Tang. As long as it did not smear the reputation, the officials could attack the monarch at will.
Of course, Jiang Fan didn't think too much about it.
He said immediately after Li Shi Min finished speaking.
"Brothers, don't argue. Let me finish.”
As soon as he said that, everyone listened attentively.
Jiang Fan didn't waste any time and said directly.
"Although the Qin Emperor was magnanimous and no one could compare to him, during his reign, the people still suffered. Although he ruled the country by law, it was the law that succeeded and the law that failed. At the beginning, when the law was implemented, the officials used violent and cruel laws in order to obtain merit.”
" Similarly, under such circumstances, countless unjust and wrong cases were caused. The commoners also did not dare to speak out, afraid that they would die under the rule of law. Similarly, the First Emperor loved to fight and fought many times, ignoring the hearts of the commoners, causing a huge change in the hearts of the commoners. The commoners were like water, able to carry a boat or capsize it. Therefore, the First Emperor was not a very outstanding figure among the commoners, but it was undeniable that his achievements, methods, and breadth of mind were his. Therefore, he could be called a citizen. Ancient Great Emperor."
"Secondly, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. This emperor opened up the territory and indeed brought glory to the Chinese people. However, at that time, all the productive forces were used for military purposes, and the people were also miserable. To put it bluntly, they lost face and lost their inner secrets. There were many famine and food disasters, causing the people to exchange their children for food. They ate Guanyin soil and chewed on tree bark. Therefore, during the era of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the people were not considered wise kings, so they were called Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.”
"After talking about these two people, let's talk about His Majesty.”
"Although there have been years of war, there is nothing we can do about it. After all, others have come knocking on our door. You can't just stand at the door and be manipulated, right? We mainly want to see how His Majesty deals with the situation after the war.”
" There are three main reasons why I am certain that he is the greatest emperor in history, a wise ruler of a generation. Thousands of years later, his name will definitely be one of the emperors with the thickest brush strokes in history.”
"Firstly, His Majesty's ruling philosophy is to rule the world with literature internally.”
"Secondly, he humbly accepted advice and practiced economy.”
"Thirdly, encourage the mulberry farmers so that the people can cultivate and recuperate.”
.......
One breath.
Jiang Fan directly explained the different situations of the three emperors.
After he finished speaking.
Everyone started to ponder, including Li Shi Min, who was also pondering over Jiang Fan's words.
After pondering for a while.
Jiang Fan silently drank two jugs of wine while they weren't paying attention.
These small movements were not discovered.
"Why are you so sure that these three points will be passed down through the ages and deserve the title of 'One Emperor for all eternity?'”
After Fang Xuanling finished speaking.
Li Shi Min really wanted to kill this troublemaker with a knife!!
He had already explained it in such detail, and you still wanted to get to the bottom of it?????
Could it be that in your heart, I'm not worthy of being the emperor of the ages???
This little brother had already finished the tenth update yesterday, and a new day has begun.!!!
