"—— The people are mellow, Zhou Yun is prosperous, and the Chinese language and literature are beautiful... Recalling the heyday of Kaiyuan in the past, Xiaoyi still has thousands of families... Since the founding of the emperor, he has used military power to control the world. In order to control all directions, he sent envoys everywhere to attract people. Therefore, all the countries in the Western Regions, large and small, would not hesitate to proclaim themselves ministers, and Xianchen would be afraid... ——" The above are all records about the "Peaceful Age" in Chinese history. Peaceful and prosperous times are a metaphor for the country's political clarity; people live and work in peace and contentment; officials perform their duties, people do their best, and materials are used to their best advantage; even people do not pick up lost items on the road and do not close their homes at night... In short, this word refers to an era of social stability and economic prosperity. However, behind the prosperity achieved by any dynasty in Chinese history is the misery of many people. Even the most powerful Han and Tang dynasties. In the former, there were the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion and the Northern Expedition of the Huns, and the common people were generally ignorant of war for a shorter period of time than in the years of war; in the latter, they destroyed the Eastern Turks and captured the four towns of Anxi. The emperor announced that in the process of continuously opening up territories, the whereabouts of many generals were unknown. After all, the glory of those "peaceful and prosperous times" relied on too many egos who sacrificed their bodies, and there was always some sense of "pseudo-peace"...
