Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty ruled by inaction, did the people really feel happy?

It should be happy, at the beginning of the Han Dynasty, all kinds of waste were waiting to be rebuilt, the people's livelihood withered, and Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty did nothing to recuperate.

Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty gave virtue to the people of the world, so the people at that time were quite happy.

If Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's policy had been implemented, the people would have lived a better life.

I think the people will be happy, at least better than other dynasties.

The happiness of the people is very simple, and the greatest happiness is the absence of war.

I think the people should be happy, if the following ** is implemented.

I think the situation at that time should have been much better than when the economy was in decline in the early Han Dynasty.

Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty's idea of "ruling by doing nothing" was to interfere as little as possible in the affairs of the people, rather than doing nothing. In modern parlance, this is "leaving the market to the market". Although this ruling ideology is conducive to the people's recuperation and strengthening the national strength, it will also bring some negative effects, such as easily causing rebellions among the princes.

Since the emperor was more intrusive, the kings and princes of the state had less control. With such a strong power and army, it is natural that the princes would want to rebel. In addition, at the beginning of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, the Liu family wanted to get more support from the people, which also led to the princes of the Liu family having greater constraints on the king.

Therefore, in 177 BC, the son of the eldest brother of Emperor Wen of Han rebelled. But because Emperor Wen of Han was prepared, he was quickly suppressed. Three years later, Emperor Wen's only remaining brother, Liu Chang, also wanted to rebel.

However, he was captured by Emperor Wen of Han before he could formally form an army. In the end, he committed suicide while in exile. In this regard, later historians generally believe that Emperor Wen of Han actually deliberately indulged these princes.

After Emperor Wen ascended the throne, in order to stabilize his throne, Emperor Wen separated from the relatives of the Liu family many times at the beginning. If Emperor Wen of Han ascended the throne, he would clean up the vassal states in turn, which could easily lead to rebellion among all the vassal states. <

Emperor Wen of Han's policy of reducing feudal domains did not fundamentally weaken the overall strength of the vassal states. Therefore, after the death of Emperor Wen of Han, during the reign of Emperor Jing of Han, several powerful vassal states united to rebel, which is known in history as the "Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms". With the disappearance of the vassal states, the stability and peace of the Han Dynasty were basically guaranteed.

Then, Emperor Wen began to implement his own policies. For example, judicial reform should be carried out, the system of joint sitting should be abolished, and a tolerant legal policy should be further implemented. Another example is the abolition of the pass pass system.

In order to ensure the stability of the country, the Han Dynasty did not allow people to migrate. People who want to travel anywhere need to carry official documents. But Emperor Wen abolished this policy and made the country's economy grow faster.

In addition, Emperor Wen allowed private coinage, reduced taxes and forced labor, and allowed private mining. Without exception, these policies are aimed at strengthening the country and making the people richer. These policies of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty did have a very good effect and greatly improved the national strength of the Han Dynasty.

Emperor Wen also raised horses and hoarded grain on a large scale in the border areas. These accumulations not only became the basis for the border guards to resist the Xiongnu, but also became the backing for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to attack the Xiongnu. In his private life, Emperor Wen is also very commendable.

Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty lived a very simple life and had almost no extravagant behavior. Under his leadership, the Han Dynasty's expenditures on state operations were also greatly reduced. In addition, Emperor Wen was also very filial and respected his mother, the Empress Dowager Bo, very much, which became a legacy for future generations.

During his reign, he used Ctrip to reward those who had made meritorious contributions, and successfully took military power into his own hands, and went to lift the rebellion, and during his reign, he used history as a mirror, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, carried out judicial reforms, penal reforms, introduced rational reforms, and reduced some taxes.

He created the rule of Wenjing, recuperation, stability and unity, new water conservancy, and the abolition of corporal punishment, all of which he did during his period.

He took the country very seriously, took him very seriously, worked hard to restore the country's strength, and abolished the harsh punishments.

Mainly because the Han Dynasty was deeply influenced by the "Huang Lao Thought" at that time, and it was also related to the economic conditions at that time, and Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, who implemented the rule of inaction, was not really inaction.

He felt that this would lead to better governance of the country. It's not really inaction. It's just that the method used is relatively gentle, and it can win the hearts of the people.

The implementation of such a method was determined by the objective historical environment, and at that time the concept of governing the country in the ideological field had not yet been formed; This kind of inaction does not mean inaction, and inaction refers to not engaging in political movements, not engaging in economic intervention, and promoting market development with loose policies.

Emperor Wen of Han. To implement the rule of inaction, it is because of the practical conditions and the decision made by ideology and culture, because at that time, the early Han Dynasty did not form a relatively clear concept of governance, and in the later period of the hundred schools of thought, the very famous idea was Huang Laozhixue.

Combining personal practice and national governance, the idea of rule by doing nothing was proposed, and the economic conditions and social background of the early Han Dynasty at that time were also very compatible with the idea of rule by doing nothing, and the national economy at that time was relatively weak, and there was no way to withstand law and other doctrines, so in this case, a simplistic idea came into being, which could solve a state of dispersion of people's hearts, so that society could stabilize as soon as possible, and restore to a natural state as much as possible. Therefore, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty practiced inaction and became an inevitability. However, although Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty implemented the rule of inaction, it does not mean that Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty is really inaction, on the contrary, through the promulgation of certain policies, so that the society can recover as soon as possible and promote the improvement of productivity.

During the reign of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, he did not advocate changing the old system easily, you must know that if you want to change the old system, it can actually promote development to a certain extent, but the society at that time was relatively turbulent, so Emperor Wen of Han did not choose to change the old system, but followed the old law, so that the people could adapt to the rule as soon as possible. Moreover, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty also respected all simplicity and opposed red tape and insults, the most obvious of which was that the economy played an excellent role in the promotion of the economy, including the opening of private mining of ores.

Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty's inaction only respectfully Qi's rule can be said to have advantages and disadvantages. In fact, to a certain extent, it alleviated political contradictions and allowed politics to stabilize quickly, but it also allowed local vassal states.

The power grows. At the same time, it also allowed the local economy to develop rapidly, and the policy relaxation also laid a certain foundation for the great development of the productive forces, and at the same time eased the ruling class.

The contradiction between the people and the people has played a certain role in improving people's livelihood.

In the end, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty's rule of inaction was very useful in a certain sense, containing a very profound concept of governing the country, and it can be said that it also laid a certain political foundation, which was in line with the development of the national conditions at that time.

The reason for the implementation of "rule by inaction" during the period of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty. The reason for the implementation of a statecraft strategy is, in general, the combination of ideological and cultural conditions and social reality conditions, and the idea of "ruling by doing nothing" during the period of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty not only has the historical origin of good nuclear enlightenment in the past, but also adapts to the actual social environment at that time. During the period of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, although the economic and economic conditions of the whole country have improved, the overall social environment has not changed.

"Rule by inaction" is not inaction in the literal sense, but refers to giving full play to the initiative of natural laws and social and economic laws. In this context, "intervention" refers to "intervention", and "inaction and governance" specifically defines the object of intervention in the specific implementation, and intervenes within the scope and reduces the intervention outside the scope. On the surface, this political attitude of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty is "inaction", but in fact, it is a political attitude that must be implemented in order to seek economic development and political stability.

Through his idea of "ruling by doing nothing", he ensured political stability, restored economic development, and eased the relationship between ** and the local government.

Because of this, we can better recuperate, better alleviate the contradiction of slag and steak in the sedan chair, and effectively avoid many problems.

I believe that the implementation of this policy was mainly decided in response to the environment at that time, and this policy was very much in line with the development of the country and the lives of the people at that time. I think that Emperor Chang of Han Wen did not rule by inaction, and the policies he implemented were convenient, and the life of the common people improved the productivity of the country and made the overall strength of the country have been greatly developed.

The advantage of the Han Dynasty's inaction was that the people after the war could rest and recuperate.

The main contents of the politics of Huang Lao in the early Han Dynasty were: First, emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business, restoring and developing production. For example, we should advocate agriculture-oriented and encourage agricultural production.

The second is to implement a policy of repression, prohibiting merchants from riding in cars and increasing their taxes. The third is to give light and rest with the people. Fourth, in addition to Qin's harsh law, the law is provincial, the net is banned, and the people are still quiet and relaxed, so as to seek peace for the people.

Fifth, the toll of checkpoints and bridges has been abolished, and the mountains have been opened up for mining and cultivation, bringing unprecedented development opportunities. Sixth, the fields of boiling salt, iron smelting, and other fields are fully opened, and even in the field of currency issuance such as copper smelting and coinage, they are also open to private individuals. As a result of the implementation of Huang Lao's politics, social production was quickly restored and developed, the country accumulated a large amount of wealth, a prosperous era of literature and prosperity, and the feudal rule of the Western Han Dynasty was stabilized.

Recuperate and quickly recover the vitality lost due to the war at the end of the Qin Dynasty.

The rule of inaction does not mean that Emperor Wen of Han doesn't care about anything, this is just his way of governing the country, unlike many strict managers before, his management gives the people a lot of living space and feels relaxed, so the people feel very happy.

Because this kind of inaction is not to ignore nothing, but to let the people themselves develop according to the actual situation, the labor force has been liberated, and the people can work hard for whatever life they want, so the people will feel happy.

Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty ruled by inaction, so that the national strength of the Han Dynasty was quickly restored, the economy developed rapidly, and at the same time, the problem of food and clothing for the people was solved, so the people felt happy.

Because at that time, the world was initially decided, and the common people were very poor, and Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty did nothing to govern and recuperate, and the people could take the opportunity to develop production.

It is precisely because Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty ruled by inaction, allowing the people to recuperate and recuperate, without any war, that the people can live a stable life.

Strictly speaking, it is to respect objective laws, give full play to the initiative of the people, and not blindly command with too much administrative intervention.

Regarding the economic policy during his reign, the author has written a "Brief History of the Rise and Fall of the Western Han Dynasty", which can be read by interested friends. Here, his rule of inaction is roughly explained from several aspects:

1. Internal affairs. <>

Stability: recuperation, not much construction, no labor and money. On the basis of abiding by national laws and regulations, there is no excessive interference in society, and the people are relatively free.

Ren: The harsh punishment inherited from the Qin Dynasty was softened, and the corporal punishment of cutting off people's hands and feet at every turn was abolished; Respect intellectuals, those who have committed capital crimes often let them commit suicide without using torture weapons.

Compassion: Caring for the people, providing relief to the widows, widows, loneliness, and the poor, and stipulating that the elderly will enjoy free subsidies in terms of food, clothing, etc.

2. Economy. Nong: "Agriculture, the foundation of the world." "Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty led the royal family to cultivate in person many times, encouraging the whole society to attach importance to agriculture and farmers.

Pine: Open the country's mountains, rivers and rivers to the people to cultivate and use. Open up the private sector to mint money and invigorate the economy.

Light: Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty believed that the field tax of 1 30 was not low, and repeatedly ordered the tax to be halved, and even completely reduced the field tax in the later period.

3. Externally. <>

Peace: Valuing peace to neighboring and vassal countries, and not using force lightly. Even against the Xiongnu, who repeatedly provoked, only limited defensive counterattacks were adopted.

Fourth, the guidance of social atmosphere.

Park: Extreme simplicity. Refuse to pay tribute. Except for major occasions, Emperor Wen of Han wore cloth clothes and even straw sandals all year round. The food and clothing of the queen and the royal family are also saved.

Filial piety: The Han Dynasty established the country with filial piety, and Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty was a typical example of his own efforts. The "taste the decoction" in the twenty-four filial pieties refers to him.

What is good at the top will be very bad at the bottom. Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty led the society to create a good atmosphere with his exemplary role.

Therefore, relying on a comprehensive and reasonable policy, during the reign of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, the strength of the Han Empire was rapidly restored, the common people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the society was harmonious and stable.
