Chapter 89 Pointing, Dragon Slaying Technique!(2/3)
There is no way to manage it.
Unless you get eternal life.
Tang Yuanqing considered it carefully and continued: "The people's poverty gave the great sage Zhang Jiao a foundation for development and fertile ground for his rapid growth."
"But the rebellion of the Yellow Turban Army is not the rebellion of Zhang Jiao."
"I have always opposed treating a country as a whole. Because any country should be divided into two classes."
"The ruling class enjoys vested interests, and the ruled class suffers exploitation."
"Zhang Jiao's Taiping Dao developed from the general public, that is, the exploited class. This is the foundation and cornerstone of Taiping Dao. With such a foundation, he is almost destined to have a very special relationship with the ruling class."
"In peacetime, the two of them live in peace and harmony."
"But when the people are in dire straits and cannot survive, they will naturally turn against the ruling class."
"So the rebellion of the Yellow Turban Army was not Zhang Jiao's rebellion. Zhang Jiao just happened to meet and became the leader of this turmoil. But even if there was no Zhang Jiao, there would still be Wang Jiao and Li Jiao."
"The essence is that the exploitation of the ruled class by the ruling class has reached a point that the ruled class cannot bear, so this vigorous revolution came about."
Yang Xu pondered while thinking: "This is indeed the truth."
"Qin Dynasty, Han Dynasty."
"There is no way of escaping the fate of reincarnation for hundreds of years. Its essence is the plundering of existing interests by the ruling class."
"During the period of the dynasty's rise, when the people could benefit from the development of the dynasty, this relationship between exploitation and exploitation maintained a delicate balance."
"But once the dynasty goes downhill, and it becomes increasingly difficult for the people to obtain benefits, and they even have to endure greater oppression, the relationship between the two will become acute until the conflict is completely aroused."
"This outbreak is essentially a desire for redistribution of social resources."
Tang Yuanqing clasped his hands and laughed, a flash of light flashing in his eyes.
Yang Xu's ability to understand was greatly appreciated by him.
Tang Yuanqing smiled and said: "It was like this in the Qin and Han Dynasties. In fact, it is now. Today's earth and all countries in the world still cannot escape this law."
"The nature of the country will never change."
"No matter how the ruling class plays word games to whitewash their rule and oppression. Whether it is democracy, freedom, or civil rights, it will not change the essence that the state is just a tool for the ruling class to rule the exploited."
"This also means that there will always be a large group of people who are oppressed and exploited. They are the cornerstone of a country and have never been consistent with the interests of the ruling class."
"Human society and major countries must not be regarded as a whole."
"It should be divided into two classes and treated as many smaller classes."
"Such as the ruling class and the ruled class. The ruled class can be divided into three smaller classes: the rich, the middle class, and the proletarians."
"The Yellow Turban Rebellion was essentially the resistance of the proletariat and the middle class to the violent organs of the imperial court and a protest against the unfair distribution of social resources."
Yang Xu was thoughtful and tasted a different taste.
This topic seems to involve something very interesting.
This was true in the Qin and Han Dynasties, and it is also true in modern times!
If Yang Xu was really a native of the wilderness, he might not be able to deeply understand the meaning of this sentence.
But Yang Xu also comes from modern times and understands the situation in various countries in the modern world. Looking back on everything he has seen, it seems to verify what Tang Yuanqing said today.
When the economy goes down, people become poor.
The exploitation by the ruling class exceeds the tolerance of the exploited class, and it is inevitable that people will be confused.
I want to do something that the ruler will never allow!
Yang Xu took a deep look at Tang Yuanqing and considered: "There are still many differences between the Qin and Han dynasties and modern times."
"With today's technological level and the power of weapons, the strength of the proletarians and rulers has been stretched to an insurmountable level, and it is no longer possible to pose a threat to the rulers as it did during the Qin and Han Dynasties."
"When the power gap between the rulers and the proletarians is too large, any so-called revolution or uprising will ultimately have only one outcome."
"Perish!"
"As Mr. Xi taught before, there has never been a successful uprising during the heyday of the dynasty."
Tang Yuanqing smiled heartily and said: "Yes, yes, your Majesty has made rapid progress and can already think of such depth."
As he spoke, he took a deep breath and spoke very slowly.
"But your Majesty has forgotten one thing. The strength gap between the proletarians and the rulers is based on the rulers' deliberate suppression of the proletarians. Just like the ancient court would restrict the common people from owning armor, restricting the common people from owning repeating crossbows, and similar destructive weapons.
"
"But this restriction is not impossible to break. If unexpected circumstances arise, this gap can be compressed infinitely until the proletarians can shake the foundation of the rulers."
"Just as the two industrial revolutions almost overturned the foundation of the ruling class at that time, they also created a new ruling class on this basis."
"Now that I think about it, it's another reincarnation."
Tang Yuanqing's eyelids drooped slightly, he narrowed his eyes, and said as if intentionally or unintentionally: "The emergence of the Poseidon Kingdom is a new beginning for mankind."
The corners of Yang Xu's lips twitched slightly, and he secretly sighed.
No matter how stupid he was, he still understood the meaning.
This old man is simply an old angry young man.
But if you think about it carefully, what he said is not unreasonable.
If ordinary human beings master some new power, enough to allow the proletarians to infinitely shorten the power of the rulers, wouldn't it be the beginning of another reincarnation?
Just like the Taiping Road led by Zhang Jiao...
Yang Xu suddenly lost his voice.
He couldn't help laughing.
Now he understands.
This old man has a purpose today.
Zhangjiao, Taiping Road.
Modern, ancient.
new changes.
Proletarians and rulers.
The old man talked so much in a roundabout way, but didn't he just mean to compare the Xu Kingdom to Zhang Jiao and the entire human race to the Han Dynasty?
If the Xu Kingdom acts in the name of God, woos the bottom proletarians, and uses extraordinary power to fight against technology, hiss.
Yang Xu shook his head slightly, not daring to continue thinking.
This is doable.
But it’s not easy to handle.
Yang Xu breathed out, stared at Tang Yuanqing with a smile, and said with a half-smile: "Sir, you really taught me a very meaningful lesson today."
Tang Yuanqing narrowed his eyes and smiled happily.
He knew that Yang Xu understood.
I understood what he meant.
Tang Yuanqing laughed and said: "The ancients said that eating the emperor's salary is a matter of loyalty to the emperor. Although your majesty and I are not emperors and ministers, we have received preferential treatment from your majesty. This is just a matter of doing our duty."
"Besides, Tang is just a useless scholar studying history. Today I just told His Majesty a period of human history and the history that will inevitably happen in the future."
"Whether it is of great significance or not depends on how Your Majesty understands it. It has nothing to do with me, a useless scholar."
Yang Xu smiled and shook his head.
This old man is getting more and more interesting.
However, today's discussion gave Yang Xu some ideas.
Some bold ideas.
If the Nuwa clan can achieve something, maybe...
After seeing off Tang Yuanqing, Yang Xu sat on the corridor, staring at the dim light on the top of the cave, without saying anything for a long time.
There have always been only two races in this world.
ruler.
ruled.
Yang Xu stood up and took a breath.
After today's conversation with Tang Yuanqing, his ideas opened up.
Now that I think about it, although my previous worries cannot be said to be meaningless, they are also a bit shallow.
As for the future…
Yang Xu thought about it and ordered: "Pass the order, call... Qingluan over."
To be continued...
