Wei and Jin Cooks - Chapter 813

Zhao Hanzhang lost his temper fiercely, letting Xuan Yuxiu and other Han officials know that Zhao Hanzhang is not so gentle. Also, how can a person who can command the three armies be soft-tempered?

With this outburst of temper, although Xuan Yuxiu, Liu Qin and the others felt that the emperor’s funeral was too crude, they dared not say anything more.

In the final analysis, Liu Yuan is not Zhao Hanzhang’s king, but the king of an enemy country. If she exposes Liu Yuan’s corpse to the wilderness, at most she will get a reputation for being cruel and ruthless. A thick burial can get a good reputation. Burying with the emperor’s specifications is not just a thick burial. He also indirectly acknowledged Liu Yuan’s identity and his achievements in this life. This alone is enough to convince the courtiers of the Han Dynasty.

Even Liu Yi couldn’t say anything resentful towards her.

The two countries are rivals of enemy countries, and Liu Yuan was once a minister of Jin and a prince of Fan. His status naturally made Zhao Hanzhang’s attack justified. What’s more, this time the war was also provoked by Han.

Pingyang City was destroyed because they were not as skilled as others, so they were ashamed, but it was difficult to resent Zhao Hanzhang.

If she does something inhumane, such as killing their emperor, massacring their people, soldiers…

But the emperor died of illness by himself, and Zhao Hanzhang also announced that the imperial physician wanted to rescue him; she did not kill people indiscriminately, no matter if they were Han or Hu, as long as she did not attack her soldiers or violated her regulations, she would tolerate them and treat them equally; As for the captured soldiers, she gave them preferential treatment.

Pingyang City has been broken up to now, Zhao Jiajun has said that Qiu has not committed any crimes, and only obeys orders to count the family properties of officials and court assets.

She did so well that no one who wanted to find fault with her could find her. In the end, she saw that she took up so many funeral objects, tore up the list of funeral objects, and issued an order prohibiting burial, so she whispered to her Petty, or a little grudge or something like that.

Zhao Hanzhang didn’t know it at all, and her anger disappeared a lot when Fu Tinghan came over for dinner, “I didn’t expect that they would still think about burial when they were about to perish. They almost lost more than two hundred lives in vain.”

Fu Tinghan: “When I came here, I heard someone say that you were very angry today, and now you are still angry?”

Zhao Hanzhang snorted, frowned and thought: “Now it’s under my eyelids, it can be banned, but what about places I can’t see?”

Fu Tinghan thought for a while and said: “Didn’t you always say that the same is true? You abolished the sacrificial burial system and forbade your officials to bury the living and livestock. Implement thin burials, and the folks will naturally follow.”

Zhao Hanzhang lowered his head and pondered, “But this is too slow. Who knows how many people will die because of the burial during the time when the atmosphere above affects the people below?”

“I asked Mr. Ming today and found out that although the first emperor was not allowed to use human sacrifices for burial, and the emperor of Han did not respect this matter, there are still people who are sacrificed alive.”

“When the husband dies, the wife dies, the concubine dies; the master dies, the slaves die, these are the default rules, especially some princes and kings, who are not bound by the court, lawless, and there are many things that kill people and die in private,” Zhao Hanzhang said: “Now In troubled times, human lives are worthless, and for the so-called generous burials, thousands of people are killed and buried.”

That’s why Xuan Yuxiu felt that Liu Yuan was already virtuous, so he only chose his favorite young concubine to be buried, and there were not many palace maids and servants with him. He didn’t understand why Zhao Hanzhang was so angry.

“Then you want to?”

“I plan to let Uncle Cheng lead the schools all over the country to take action. I will not only strictly demand from above to put an end to this matter, but also propagandize from below to change them ideologically.”

It’s one thing for the superior to dislike her, but the change of thinking is even more important. Otherwise, if she dies and someone in power is replaced in the future, wouldn’t the sacrificial burial system blow like a spring breeze again?

In fact, the sacrificial burial system was very popular in the former Qin Dynasty, but Qin Shihuang did not like human sacrifices, but chose to replace them with pottery and wooden figurines. Since then, emperors have not respected human sacrifices, but some local princes and dignitaries will use human sacrifices in private.

Zhao Hanzhang only knows that human martyrdom became popular again in history until the Liao Dynasty. This kind of prevalence means that the emperor used human martyrdom to bury wantonly. Some rich people in the folk will respect the thick burial and learn to bury people with human sacrifices.

After the Liao Dynasty, the Jin and Yuan dynasties also prevailed. In the Ming Dynasty, this system was still prevailing. It was not until the Ming Yingzong abolished the sacrificial system. The system of human sacrifice was not completed in the Ming Dynasty. It became popular again.

Although this system was ordered to be abolished during the Kangxi period, in the folk, the martyrdom system of husbands and wives has always existed. The imperial court will encourage people to die by awarding and burying their wives with “martyr” and “virgin” archways until the Republic of China , the system never really died out.

So it is not enough to abolish the system and follow the example, the system must also be changed ideologically.

Zhao Hanzhang hummed: “When I get some free time, I will write a few stories, specifically about how the buried wives, concubines and servants went underground to avenge their revenge.”

“Cough, cough, cough…” Fu Tinghan was choked up, and coughed several times before he recovered, “You want to write a ghost story?”

“Yes,” Zhao Hanzhang said, “I not only want to write, but also to publish a book.”

The more she talked, the more she felt that her idea was good, and said happily: “At that time, I will choose a pen name for myself, and let the bookstore print it out for me, and sell it as a storybook, don’t worry, no one will know that I wrote it. ”

“However, there are not many literate people in this world. Whether it spreads out from schools or scripts, it faces the class of scholars and above, but most of the people buried in this world are civilians and slaves,” Zhao Hanzhang said: “So What’s the use of them knowing, they are very likely to be the beneficiaries, and the lower classes have to know, let them know how to resist.”

Fu Tinghan helped her think of ideas, “Storytelling? Drama? Telling ghost stories in teahouses, which storyteller is willing to tell?”

Zhao Hanzhang touched his chin and said, “Then make it into a play.”

Zhao Hanzhang looked around, and whispered: “Mr. Ji and Mr. Ming must not know about this matter. They always find things for me to do. Don’t you have someone on hand? When the time comes, ask them to help find some storytellers and opera singers.” , get the show out.”

The more Zhao Hanzhang talked about it, the more he thought the idea was good, “Theatrical theaters are very profitable. There are few entertainment projects in this era, so they must be popular. Aren’t they worried about ways to make money?”

Fu Tinghan: “…You’re pretty good at thinking, a few people in my secret department always want me to take your power, but you want them to arrange your plays to make money for you to spend.”

Zhao Hanzhang smiled at him, “Don’t pay too much attention to these details, originally they had to make money and hand it over to you, but you took the money to spend on us, now it’s just using my script, my idea to make money. What does this mean? It means that we should be a family. In the past, I didn’t join the step of making money, but now it’s just going deeper.”
