However, he still generally adopted the records of the old and new Liang books in Zizhi Tongjian.

"There are actually many history changes in history, such as the Chu Dynasty, the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Sheng Dynasty, etc. There are many records of history changes, and they are basically confirmed due to the unearthing of some cultural relics or the latest research. It is difficult to overturn them.

.

"Only for the Liang Taizong's history change incident, which was the largest and most denounced in modern times, no solid evidence has been found so far. This can actually explain some problems from the side.

"Moreover, if you want to change history on a large scale, one thing is a necessary condition. But the Liang Dynasty did not have it."

Li Hongyun asked: "What?"

Chu Ge smiled slightly: "Literary prison, and it is a large-scale literary prison, sweeping the country from top to bottom.

"Because if you want to change history, you don't just have to change the history of the country. There are also a lot of historical records among the people. Although these folk historical materials are unofficial histories, they will also collect a lot of corresponding information, and many people who write unofficial histories are highly respected.

, a famous and important person.

"Perhaps someday in the future, these unofficial histories will be corroborated with a certain piece of unearthed historical data, thereby substantiating the falsification of official history.

"So, if you want to change history, you must eradicate unofficial history as well, leaving only the official history that you have revised. And to eradicate unofficial history, you must set up literary prisons on a large scale, arrest and kill all the people who write history.

Burn all the books they wrote, and even those who keep private possessions will be executed...

“Only in this way can it be completely banned.

"But we all know that in the Liang Dynasty, private history was not allowed, speech and thought were not restricted, and there was no literary prison. The cultural environment at that time could be said to be the most open and tolerant in the entire ancient China.

"Moreover, if you really think about this issue with skepticism, you should think like this: The person who changed history will let you know that he changed history? How low is his IQ?

"If Liang Taizong really wanted to change history on a large scale, why would he leave such an obvious stain in the historical materials that he asked his ministers to change history?

"On the contrary, those dynasties that have not found any records of historical changes should be more vigilant. Because they did make changes very carefully and perfectly. They deleted all the places that should be deleted. They even set up a literary inquisition to delete all the folk historical materials.

After decades of hard work, you can’t find any trace of the real history.”

Li Hongyun thought for a while: "What about "Notes on Entrepreneurship and Daily Life"? There seem to be many differences between the old and new Liang Shu records, right?"

Chu Ge nodded: "Well, yes, but "Entrepreneurship Daily Notes" may not be reliable, because there are many records in it that are unreasonable even if you think about it with your toes.

"For example, it is recorded in it that after the siege of Yanmen, Liang Gaozu, the god of war in Mayi, frightened the Turks so much that they did not dare to go south. 'The Turks were frightened and convinced the emperor's capable soldiers, collected their troops, and did not dare to go south.' Even

I also wanted to pay tribute to Liang Gaozu as a vassal.

“As a result, in May of the following year, the Turks outflanked Taiyuan with tens of thousands of cavalry.

"And we know that the Turks will really stop invading until the Wei River Alliance about ten years later. During these ten years, the Turks have been going south to invade almost every year, and they have become more and more intense.

"Obviously, this is baseless bragging."

Li Hongyun was speechless for a moment, he was indeed convinced by Chu Ge.

"Then... what about the folk records of Liang Taizong?"

Chu Ge smiled slightly: "Folks? Folks' views on Liang Taizong are much more outrageous than official history.

"However, no one questioned or slandered Liang Taizong. Instead, they all viewed him as a 'holy king'.

"There are two poems that are enough to explain.

"'It has been one hundred and ninety years since you came, and the world is still singing and dancing.' In other words, it has been one hundred and ninety years since Liang Taizong's death, but the people are still singing and dancing to praise his saintliness.

"'Indignation sometimes changes into songs, while lonely loyalty has no way to cry in Zhaoling.' This is written by a famous poet of the Qi Dynasty. It talks about the customs of the Liang and Qi dynasties. When Zhongliang was persecuted and wronged, he went to the tomb of Liang Taizong.

Crying. At this time, it had been six hundred years since Liang Taizong died.

"If Liang Taizong really had any huge black material, then I think the people at that time would have been able to find it better than people now, and they would have had more reason to record and spread it."

Li Hongyun nodded slightly: "That means... I can go through the Xuanwu Gate Incident exactly according to historical records?"

Chu Ge was silent for a moment: "That's not true. There are some details that you still need to carefully screen and perfect.
