Subtle words with profound meaning!
These words shocked Yan Jiaoran.
Qin Yuan's lecture continued:
"The rentier class, including the nobility, the military, witch doctors, etc."
"These people are the first class of people separated from society who are not directly engaged in food production and gathering. We can call them the non-productive class."
"These people who have left their jobs are also a new class that will inevitably emerge after the division of labor in society."
"Among them, some were responsible for ruling, some for defense, and some for faith, and thus the initial prototype of a dynasty was formed."
"Of course, the dynasty didn't start with a family inheritance system where the younger brother succeeds the older brother or the son succeeds the older father."
"Before the Xia Dynasty, our ancestors also tried the system of abdication, which led to the legend of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors."
"Later, the system of inheritance replaced the system of abdication, ushering in a new era of hereditary rule."
"As for the reason behind this, it's easy to understand."
Qin Yuan paused and smiled, "No matter who sits on the throne, will they not think about their children and grandchildren? Will they be willing to think about their son not inheriting the throne and going home to farm?"
"Or to put it another way, who, seeing their father become the emperor, would want to go back to farming instead of continuing to be the emperor?"
As soon as these words came out.
Yan Jiaoran was immediately silenced.
Ask yourself.
Of course I don’t want to.
Not to mention passing the throne to someone who has no blood relationship with him.
Yan Jiaoran would not be willing to pass it on even to his brothers, nephews, uncles or aunts.
She gets up earlier than the chickens and goes to bed later than the dogs every day, and spends all day and night dealing with memorials and governing state affairs.
Finally, things are starting to look up and I can see a glimpse into the future.
After working so hard for so many years, why should we let "outsiders" reap the benefits?
King Yan Cetian of Qin rebelled, and the court officials each had their own ulterior motives and fought for power.
Ultimately, it all comes down to four words.
——Strive to become emperor.
As for how many people died and how much blood was shed in the process, no one seemed to care except the bastard in front of him.
Yan Jiaoran was filled with emotion.
He shook his head and said, "No one is willing to do that."
Qin Yuan patted Yan Jiaoran on the shoulder and said with a smile, "So, the hereditary dynasty was born."
"This is the dynasty, my lady, do you understand?"
"Do you truly understand the question of 'what is a dynasty'?"
Yan Jiaoran nodded slightly and said in a soft voice, "I understand. Please continue."
Qin Yuan pinched Yan Jiaoran's cheek and teased, "My dear, do you really understand?"
"Don't pretend to know something when you don't."
Yan Jiaoran was like a cat with its fur standing on end. She angrily said, "I understand!"
This bastard is good in everything.
Just like to show off!
It’s fun to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger!
Can others be the same as you?
You bastard, you have no shame!
Yan Jiaoran kept cursing in her heart.
Qin Yuan changed his posture and continued, "Then, I will explain to you what the 'essence of a dynasty' is."
“Only by clarifying this issue can we truly answer the question just raised.”
Upon hearing this, Yan Jiaoran couldn't help but straighten her expression.
A pair of small hands excitedly drew circles and spun around Qin Yuan's chest.
She had no intention of just listening to it.
After returning, I must pretend and show off in front of Murong Yanran.
You can't be shocked alone, you have to find someone to take the blame for you.
Especially this girl, who has always studied harder than her and received more praise.
A true academic master.
It feels so good to show your presence in front of such a top student.
As for Qin Yuan’s problem.
It is no longer within Yan Jiaoran's consideration.
If this girl has the ability, she should find out how I was able to flirt with this bastard without leaving the palace!
While thinking.
Qin Yuan coughed twice and said slowly and clearly:
"My lady, the most important affairs of state are sacrifice and warfare. You must have heard of these eight words, right?"
Yan Jiaoran pinched Qin Yuan's waist again and said angrily, "I'm not a fool, of course I know!"
Qin Yuan pursed his lips and thought to himself.
hehe.
My wife.
Your IQ has dropped a lot recently.
He has completely lost the cleverness he once had.
When discussing national affairs, not only can you not draw inferences from one instance, but you can't even keep up with my husband's thinking.
It's really strange.
Is she pregnant?
As the saying goes, pregnancy makes people stupid for three years. He has been working hard these days...
Seeing that Qin Yuan hadn't spoken yet, Yan Jiaoran hurriedly urged, "Why don't you speak quickly!"
Qin Yuan immediately came to his senses and continued to ask, "My lady, do you know why 'sacrifice' and 'war' are the only two major national events?"
Only two?
Yan Jiaoran felt that this wording was inappropriate!
But I didn't dare point it out, for fear of being criticized again.
I had to ignore the past and think seriously about the questions raised by Qin Yuan.
This time, she actually came up with an answer.
Yan Jiaoran answered tentatively:
"Because you chop off the heads of enemy envoys or captured generals and offer them as a sacrifice to the gods, you can send troops to fight?"
Qin Yuan: “…”
Qin Yuan was speechless.
Although this answer is straightforward and reasonable, it is not like my wife's style.
Is my wife obsessed with martial arts?
