The Yizhou Gentry And The Local Society In The Period Of The Han Dynasty And The Three Kingdoms

Yizhou area was once the place where Liu Bang started.In the late Western Han Dynasty,it was cut off by Gongsun Shu.In the late Eastern Han Dynasty,Liu Yan and his sons ruled the place first.Later,Liu Bei established the Shu Han regime here to continue the fate of the Han Dynasty.with abundant products and rich people,so it is called "the land of heaven".However,its terrain is closed,away from the center of domination,and the place where Han and Yi are mixed,the place is rich in color and has a border area nature in the Han Dynasty.Since Qin destroyed Bashu,a large number of immigrants from the Central Plains have been migrating here,and the local indigenous people have formed the foundation of the Yizhou nobles.From the pre-Qin period to the Emperor Hanwu period,the Yizhou nobles in this period were still in their infancy.The main feature was that the nobles had a single identity and were mainly industrial and commercial nobles.With the development of Wenweng in Shu area and Emperor Hanwu “respect for Confucianism”,during this period,the state of Yizhou nobles began to transform into a standard noble form of landlords,scholars,and bureaucrats.After the Eastern Han Dynasty,the development of the Yizhou nobles accelerated significantly,especially during the Han and Emperor period.During this period,due to the frequent occurrence of problems in the southwestern ethnic group,the use of Yizhou by the central government was also significantly strengthened.This is the most prosperous period of the Yizhou nobles.In the late Eastern Han Dynasty,as Liu Yan and Liu Bei separated from the southwest,the guest power gradually occupied a dominant position,and the development of the Yizhou nobles was suppressed.Although the Yizhou area is remote,the Han Dynasty is mixed,the North-South and East-West differences are obvious,but it is also baptized by the Central Plains Confucian culture.This makes the Yizhou nobles have both similarities and specialities compared with other regions.For example,the bureaucratization andConfucianization of the Hao ethnic group promoted the gentrification of the Hao ethnic group.This is shared by the Yizhou Hao ethnic group and other regions.This is a process that cannot be skipped during the development of the Han.Of course,due to the special political environment and geographical environment of the Yizhou Hao,the Yizhou Hao has the characteristics of conservativeness and imbalance in internal development.As a local power,the Yizhou gentry group is rooted in Yizhou.The safety of Yizhou is related to the interests of the Yizhou Hao ethnic group.The numerous ethnic minorities in Yizhou combined with the unique geographical situation have caused ethnic problems and secessionist phenomena from time to time.When faced with the above problems,the tyrants of Yizhou tend to proceed from their own interests and make their own choices.This has affected the central government’s policies toward the southwest and the relationship between the central government and the southwest to a certain extent.
