After hearing Guo Peng say this, Guo Chengzhi showed dissatisfaction.

"Dirty? Why do they think others are dirty? The ugly things they do themselves are the dirtiest!"

Guo Peng was very satisfied with Guo Chengzhi's reaction.

After destroying the gentry, he completely controlled education and had considerable authority over education, so he incorporated a lot of things he liked into education.

For example, remove the Confucian ideas of strange and ingenious techniques and Taoist ideas, and delete the Mohist political ideas.

Then the scholars took off their fig leaf.

He ruthlessly revealed the things that people did in the era of admiration to gain fame and integrity, and also brought up the things they had done to others and talked about them.

So students in the new era all knew that there was a group of people who did not hesitate to perform on the issue of filial piety in order to be an official.

This is where the contempt for the system of recommendation and people in the era of recommendation began.

It can be said that Mr. Guo has done another thing to destroy bridges across the river. He has blocked this road by himself. It is extremely shameless.

But what's the problem with this? He is the biggest person anyway. He can do whatever he wants, and others can't do anything to him.

So he nodded.

"Yes, they think that only they are clean and others are dirty. So in the former Han Dynasty, all the princes and generals treated the people in this way. Only I am not, so they are no match for me."

Guo Chengzhi didn't understand Guo Peng's super jump.

So Guo Peng said it more bluntly.

"Scholars who study are used to being arrogant and ordinary people are used to being arriving in the land. They have forgotten that it is not our people themselves who can influence the general trend of the world, but the people of the world."

Guo Chengzhi frowned, a little confused.

"Big Father, my father told me that those who hold the world's bull ears are also emperors. Apart from the emperor, who can influence the general trend of the world?"

Guo Peng nodded.

"That's right, the one who holds the world's bull ears is indeed the emperor, but it's just the emperor of our Wei Kingdom. The former Han Dynasty was not like this. Chengzhi, after reading history books, tell me, what did Emperor Guangwu rely on to conquer the world?"

"Of course it is Emperor Guangwu's literary and martial arts..."

"No."

Guo Peng interrupted Guo Chengzhi: "I mean, who has helped him?"

"Help... Emperor Guangwu married Nanyang Yin Lihua and Hebei Guo Shengtong, and then won the hearts of the people in the world and won the world."

"Yes, Nanyang Yin Lihua, Hebei Guo Shengtong, what is behind these two women?"

Guo Peng looked at Guo Chengzhi.

"The powerful man in Nanyang, and the powerful man in Hebei."

Guo Chengzhi seemed to understand: "What the great father meant was that Emperor Guangwu won the world because he received the help of the powerful men in Nanyang and the powerful men in Hebei, not for any other reason."

"Of course, without the help of the powerful men in Nanyang and Hebei, he could not even do anything about his brother being killed by Emperor Gengshi."

Guo Peng shook his head: "Guangwu stood out and became the final winner because he received the help of the powerful Nanyang and the powerful Hebei. But why did he win with the help of the powerful Nanyang and the powerful Hebei? Have you ever thought about it?"

Guo Chengzhi nodded.

"Because the powerful men in Nanyang and the powerful men in Hebei have money, food, weapons, and horses, they surrender to Guangwu, and Guangwu has all this, and there is no shortage of money, food, and soldiers. Guangwu can thus lead to a thousand troops and compete for the world."

"Where did the money, grain and people from the powerful Nanyang and the powerful Hebei come from?"

Guo Peng continued to ask.

"Of course, they obtained it from their land estates. Through land annexation, they broke the self-cultivated farmers, and took the self-cultivated farmers who paid taxes for the state, and continued to let them farm and produce, and annexed the production income alone, and then did not hand it over to the court.

As a result, the powerful became stronger and stronger, and the court became weaker. This was the case in the late Han Dynasty and the Xinmang period. For this reason, the powerful had great power and could be said to have won the world by the powerful. Therefore, Emperor Guangwu rose up for four years and became emperor."

Guo Chengzhi seems to have been arranged by Guo Jin to deeply interpret part of history by a famous teacher, so he has already understood some fundamental social problems.

"Yes, you learned a lot."

Guo Peng praised Guo Chengzhi, and Guo Chengzhi was very happy.

As a result, Guo Peng changed his mind.

"But, Chengzhi, you didn't answer my question."

"ah?"

Guo Chengzhi was stunned.

"I'll ask you where the powerful soldiers, horses, money and food come from, and you want to answer my question."

"Yes, my grandson has answered, he came from the manor."

“Where did it come from?”

"A manor."

"No, answer again."

"Ah? Isn't it the manor?"

"No, think about it again."

Guo Peng shook his head repeatedly, and Guo Chengzhi was extremely shaken when he asked.

It's obviously that...

Guo Chengzhi thought about it and suddenly clapped his hands.

"What Dafu meant is... the people in the manor?"

“Yes.”

Guo Peng smiled: "What is the use of an empty manor? It is the hard work of the people in the manor to produce grain and other things. Then the grain and other objects are circulated in the market, and they are exchanged for money. This is the source of money and grain.

Weapons are naturally made by craftsmen, and soldiers are naturally composed of strong men in the manor. Everything is not because of the manor, but because of the people in the manor. They are the confidence of the powerful. With them, the powerful is the confidence of Emperor Guangwu.”

"I see."

Guo Chengzhi frowned and nodded repeatedly.

"Actually, many people are used to being superior. They always easily forget why they are superior. When they are used to being superior, they feel that they are born superior, but in fact it is not the case.

Because the people below produced things and even fought on the battlefield, they were so arrogant that they were superior, but they mistakenly thought that they should have obtained it, not that. It was not them who could dominate the world, but the people.

They always feel that the people are easy to control. As long as the force is strong enough to defeat the enemy, the people will naturally obey their rule and behave obediently, so that they can get the world. This is not the reason.”

Guo Peng lowered his voice, hugged Guo Chengzhi in front of him, and whispered: "Chengzhi, my father only tells you this one. Remember, whoever they help can get the world!"

After saying that, Guo Peng straightened up, patted Guo Chengzhi on the back, and smiled.

Guo Chengzhi was very surprised.

Then I seemed to think of something, thinking.

"That's why the great father destroyed the world's manor, in order to seize the people of the world for his own use? The reason why the great father is powerful is that Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao and others are separated from the people of the people, and they also despise the people.

So they did not fight against the powerful, but just turned to the powerful. Although they received help, they would be constrained by the powerful. The great father destroyed the manor and directly controlled the people of the world without restraint. So the great father became stronger?"

After Guo Chengzhi finished speaking, he looked at Guo Peng with anticipation.

"That's how you think?"

Guo Peng put away his smile and looked at Guo Chengzhi.

Guo Chengzhi shrunk a little.

"Is grandson wrong?"

“…”

Guo Peng was silent for a moment, as if he wanted to say something, but hesitated for a while, remembered Guo Jin from the past and Guo Jin from the present, and Cai Yong, and finally swallowed the words back into his stomach.

Then, he smiled and said, "No, you are right, because Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others despise the people and indulge the powerful in controlling them, thinking that this way, they can control the people by controlling the powerful in power.

But in fact, the powerful people have more direct power, so they have the ability to resist. One or two manors are not a good place, but if there are too many, it will spread all over the world, even the emperor will have to retreat. Therefore, no matter what, the powerful people cannot be asked to steal the people."

Guo Chengzhi then became happy and touched his face, as if his excitement made him feel a little hot - because he could finally answer the question of his father.

"My grandson remembers what his father said, and he will never ask those powerful men to steal the people! If you ask them to steal it, you will be hostile to me. They don't even think about it!"

Guo Chengzhi further explained his thoughts.

It seems that I want to show how I will do it in the future.

After hearing this, Guo Peng didn't say anything. After a while, he pursed his lips and smiled, patted Guo Chengzhi's face, as if he agreed with him.

But when Guo Peng turned his face, he sighed again, his eyes were a little lonely. He broke off a piece of fish food and threw it into the small pond. With a "bang", he smashed a small water flower that was bigger than the moment.

Guo Chengzhi didn't notice the loneliness in his grandfather's eyes, but he happily followed his grandfather and broke the fish food in his hand, rubbed it into powder, waved his hand and threw it into the fish pond.

The little fish in the fish pond surrounded him happily, opening his mouth and sucking and vomiting.

After the fish food in his hand was fed, Guo Peng got up and walked slowly on the trail in the back garden. Guo Chengzhi followed Guo Peng and followed him step by step.

"You haven't seen Zhuge before?"

"No, it's not right to see you."
