Li Longji has let down the people of the Tang Dynasty! The Tang Dynasty has let down the people of the Tang Dynasty.
He was so angry that he started another video and scolded Li Longji harshly.
Now he finally understood what it meant that every family has its own problems and every family has useless people!
Who could be more miserable than him? Li Longji was a wise and brave emperor in the first half of his life, but what did he do in the second half?
If an emperor can't be an emperor well, a man can't be a man.
Waste stuff!
The same thing happened to Zhao Kuangyin, but he not only scolded Zhao Gou, but also scolded the two trash mentioned above. Finally, he expanded the scolding to the entire Song Dynasty, scolding them from beginning to end.
The people's emotions were more intuitive, some people's eyes turned red and they were amused by their comments.
"These children of later generations, even such heartwarming words made their eyes wet."
"But they also said it was really good, beautiful and resilient, gentle and brave. The painting is also beautiful, which is really enviable."
Many people lowered their heads and wiped away tears, saying, "I miss my youngest son."
"If the imperial court doesn't do anything, what can we do to our children? We have the example of General Yue Fei."
After the Song Dynasty, many people were afraid. What happened to General Yue Fei, who was such a powerful man?
Their sons are in the military camp, and their lives depend on fate. If it were not for the court's request, they would never let their children enter the military camp.
This is very different from later generations.
[Miss Zhou Jia, why don't you seem afraid of those soldiers? It seems you don't have much resistance to the government.]
[Yes, your thoughts are really different from ours. We can't do that...]
[Yeah, you guys are really weird. How could anyone want to join the army?]
After this question was asked, many people followed up with questions.
The emperors also wanted to know the reason and were also troubled by the government's prestige among the people. Many people would stay away from the government officials whenever they saw them, and the same was true for the soldiers.
But look at later generations, everyone wants to rush to join the army and sacrifice their lives for the country.
They don't understand.
Zhou Jia said:
"Our ideas are indeed different. In our minds, it is normal to want to be a soldier. How could we not want to be a soldier and experience military life? How could we not want to protect our motherland and risk our lives for it?
I grew up on this land, and it was my motherland that raised me. Isn't it normal to protect it? If you don't protect your own country, who else do you expect to protect it?"
"That's their emperor's business. If they weren't incompetent, how could they have failed to protect their kingdom? Isn't it their fault that the war broke out? How many people died because of their greed and ambition?"
"Yes, that's the business of those princes and nobles. What does it have to do with us? We just know that the food we grow in our fields isn't enough for our families, and they impose high taxes every year. Before you showed up, we were barely making ends meet."
As soon as a complaint is uttered, many more complaints will follow, and the comments section will be filled with all kinds of complaints in an instant.
“It’s all recorded.”
In Xianyang Palace, Ying Zheng's indifferent voice was heard.
Since the imperial system has existed for more than two thousand years without any major changes, there must be some common problems, and these are all valuable materials.
The other smarter emperors also took notes and thought about how to improve it.
Zhou Jia looked carefully and found that most of the time the taxes were too high and the people were suffering terribly, and they could not even maintain their basic lives.
Generally, high taxes occur at the end of a dynasty or in times of chaos, which leads to the court needing more people, and the labor force at home will decrease, so there will be fewer people to take care of the crops in the fields, basically falling into a vicious circle.
"Well, most of them are tax issues. In ancient times, taxes were indeed relatively simple, and the bulk of them came from the land. After all, we have always been a big agricultural country, and the other taxes accounted for a very small proportion.
As for us now, you can see that the city is basically full of high-rise buildings and there are not many fields. Farmers don’t need to pay... Don’t get excited, don’t get excited, calm down! "
Can't calm down!
There are still countless doubts in the comments. Even some emperors find it hard to imagine that the farmers in later generations do not have to pay?
In the Xianyang Palace, Ying Zheng was thinking about the types and policies of taxes in future generations.
Why don't farmers need to pay anymore? This can be said to be a complete overturn of their traditions of thousands of years.
If it comes from other places, what industry can support their huge expenses?
Although he had not been to the future in person, he understood from Zhou Jia's words that many things in the future were built with funds from the state. Where did they get so much money?
Ying Zheng immediately opened the mall to search for modern-related books.
Liu Che also became more serious. Sang Hongyang stared at the screen with burning eyes, trying to figure out from Zhou Jia's words where the money of later generations came from, and wondered if he could learn something from it in the Han Dynasty.
After the comments on the screen gradually died down, Zhou Jia said, "My dear ancestors, let's talk slowly. Okay, let's finish this video first, and then I'll explain it to you slowly, okay?"
The First Emperor Ying Zheng: [Yes.]
"Okay." Zhou Jia automatically ignored the replies from other emperors.
"I've told you about our military, the Army, before. We've been fighting wars for thousands of years without stopping, so as long as we don't go like that garbage, we'll basically win. We've basically never been afraid of anyone.
