The most prosperous year in the history of China was the reign of Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty.
Sui Wendi Sui Wendi
At that time, people's livelihood was rich, people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and politics was stable. Emperor Wendi advocated frugality, saved a lot of expenses in the government, abolished unnecessary miscellaneous taxes, and set up granaries to store grain. After hundreds of years of serious division, Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty successfully unified China, and for most of the following centuries, China maintained his political unity.
Politically, after the unification of China, Emperor Wendi practiced frugality, and at the same time took many measures that were beneficial to consolidating the political power. Because he realized that "since ancient times, emperors have been able to support the elderly without luxury", he began to advocate frugality in life, and the concubines in the palace did not make beautiful decorations. Generally, literati use cloth and silk, and ribbons only use bronze and iron horns instead of gold and jade. Wendi tried to use beard powder and knitted collar, but he looked everywhere in the palace and couldn't find it. This frugal practice correspondingly lightens the burden on the people and is conducive to the implementation of various measures.
The appointment of officials is not limited to family status, but only on merit, and candidates are obtained through examinations. Wendi himself is committed to thrift, and he is a bureaucrat who is sorting out order. He once sent people to inspect fifty-two states in Hebei, dismissed more than 200 corrupt officials and laid off about three-tenths of the local redundant staff. He also simplified the criminal law, deleted the torture of the previous generation [3 1], and formulated the sui law to make the criminal law concise, "to make a living by replacing the light with the heavy."
Economically, it imitates the land equalization system of the Northern Wei Dynasty and implements the land equalization system. Dingnan divides 80 mu of land and Yongtian 20 mu. Women are divided into 40 acres. And tax relief, light tax, and the same interest with the people. If Ding is changed to 2 1 year-old, Shoutian will still be 18 year-old, and three years of service will be lost. It is also changed from 30 days to 20 days a year, and a silk horse (four feet) is reduced to two feet. In addition, Emperor Wendi ordered the reorganization of household registration, with five as the guarantee, five as the Lu and four as the clan. At the beginning of the emperor's accession to the throne, there were more than 3.6 million households, and Chen Ping had 500,000 households, and then it increased to 8.7 million households (during the most powerful "Kaiyuan rule" in the Tang Dynasty, there were 8.2 million households in the country, the highest value in the Tang Dynasty). In order to prepare for a rainy day, warehouses are widely set up, which are divided into official warehouses and voluntary warehouses. The official warehouse is used for grain transportation and storage, while the warehouse is used for relief. Wendi is also committed to construction, building a new capital and a big city in the southeast of Chang 'an. Dig a wide channel to lead Wei Shui from Daxing to Tongguan, which is convenient for water transportation in Kanto.
In terms of academic culture, Emperor Wen strongly advocated culture and education and extensively searched for books. In view of the long-term war and the loss of official books, he sent a letter to Tianxia Book and presented a book. After a year or two, the books were ready and sorted out, with more than 30 thousand volumes. In order to recruit talents, abolish the "Nine Grades System" and start to select officials by subject examination, which also promoted the development of education and literature. In order to enlighten the whole country and restore the orthodoxy of Chinese culture, Emperor Wendi issued decrees, formulated rituals and music, and improved the cultural quality of the whole country.
Militarily, in view of the late Northern and Southern Dynasties, Turks invaded Northern Zhou and Northern Qi from time to time with their strong military strength. So after the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Wendi sent troops to attack the Turks. Later, he even adopted the strategy of alienating the Turks, so that the Turks were divided into two parts, the east and the west, fighting each other, and Sui was able to eliminate the worries of the north.
It is precisely because of the implementation of the above measures that during the first 20 years of Emperor Wen's rule, the Sui Dynasty was politically clear, its population increased, its wealth was rich, and its society was prosperous, which was called "the rule of opening the emperor" in history. During the reign of the emperor, the politics was clear and the national strength was strong, which was the heyday of the Sui Dynasty.
Tang Dynasty: The Tang Dynasty (6 18-907) is an important dynasty in the history of China, and it is also recognized as one of the most powerful times in China.
The vast territory of the Tang Dynasty reached its peak in the 7th century, when the oasis in Central Asia was ruled by the Tang Dynasty. Its largest range is from Luofu (Hejing, Vietnam) in the south, Xuanzang (Angara River Basin, Russia) in the north, Bukhara, Uzbekistan in the west and Gebu (Tonghua, Jilin) in the east, with a land area of/kloc-0.076 million square kilometers [20]. After the mid-Tang Dynasty, the territory of Mobei and the Western Regions fell to the size of China at the end of the Tang Dynasty, but the Hetao area still existed. [3]
In its heyday, the Tang Dynasty made great achievements in culture, politics, economy and diplomacy. It was one of the prosperous times in China's history and one of the world powers at that time. Silla, Koguryo, Baekje, Bohai and Japan were greatly influenced by the Tang Dynasty in political system and culture [3][6][2 1]. In the first half of the Tang Dynasty, the social economy rose and the culture was advanced, which was a period when China exported its culture and technology to neighboring countries in history. The inclusive social atmosphere has also provided an unprecedented communication and integration environment for all ethnic groups living in Serbia since the Sixteen Countries in Wuhu, and they have also learned a lot of foreign civilizations in the process. In the second half of the Tang Dynasty, China was in a historical transition period. The reform of soil, salt, iron and tax system marks the slow change of society, the growth of separatist forces in buffer regions and the formation of neighboring nation States, which have had a far-reaching impact on the history of China in the past thousand years.
