Eight emperor brother makes Kong Zhiyue embarrassed?
Li Lingyue opened her innocent and surprised eyes and looked at Pei WANYING, who was more and more dignified as a prince and princess. She blinked and asked for explanation.
Pei WANYING is quietly pull her to sit down, did not explain the reason to its, just gently said: "see the drama."
Li Zhe looked at Li Dan being asked by Kong Zhiyue. His face was dignified. Just like Li Lingyue, he was about to get up, but he was pulled by Xu Yanbo, who had been lowering his head all the time.
"Don't be impatient, the king of Yin can cope with it, and have a look." Xu Yanbo still lowered his head, but the twinkling in his eyes was like that of his grandfather Xu Jingzong, full of deep city government.
"It seems that the emperor is right. He flatters you when he says you are stupid." Li Dan did not appear flustered by Kong Zhiyue's cross examination, nor did he blush like he did when he was a child. On the contrary, he stood tall, full of unprecedented self-confidence.
"King Yin, please respect yourself!" Kong Zhiyue's voice sank. Although he was a royal official, he had always enjoyed a high reputation as a scholar in the Tang Dynasty. Since the first emperor, both Kong and Yan were highly valued and relied on by the former Emperor.
Even now his majesty, knowing that he and his royal highness completely deviated from the idea, still decisively chose to stay in the imperial palace.
Now he was scolded by the king of Yin in front of his face, and all of them were praising himself. How could Kong Zhiyue stand it?
The Confucius and Yan family always seemed to be the same as Meng and Meng. So Yan Weizhen saw that Kong Zhiyue was scolded by the king of Yin. After saluting Li Zhi and Wu Mei immediately, Yan Weizhen went to Kong Zhiyue and asked Li Dan, "since the king of Yin thought that Master Kong was stupid, Yan Weizhen asked King Yin as his minister to solve his doubts. The Imperial College of Tang Dynasty sacrificed wine to educate the people How stupid is it to pass on the responsibility of the world to yourself? "
Li Dan was not upset by the two people's questioning. On the contrary, he was confident and calm with a smile. After taking a look at his unruffled dragon mother and his father, Li Dan said faintly: "no matter the country of Japan, Silla, and Baiji, they have always been the evil officials and thieves. If there is milk, it is the mother's master. No matter whether it is the Tang Dynasty or the former Sui Dynasty, or further forward, which one is not enough to eat me What are the benefits of the Chinese nation? But it is always in the time when the Chinese nation is in danger and weak? The Japanese sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty a few years ago, and their hind legs began to send warships to Baiji to attack our Tang Navy. I want to ask you Yan Weizhen, are you raising wolves? Or raising tigers? "
"I know that you hope that the knowledge and classics of the Kong Yan family will move them and make them feel grateful to our Chinese nation. However, from the lessons of history, whether it is Japan or Silla or Baiji, they feed unfamiliar dogs. If they give you good, they will treat you as shangguo, or even give them benefits. When you are treated as shangguo, you should also do dirty things secretly Do you think I should not learn from the past, but should continue to do the same? I also want to ask you, you Kong Zhiyue hoped that my father emperor would continue to allow the envoys from Japan and other countries to come to our Tang Dynasty to study, but did not teach me other people of the Tang Dynasty. Are you a subject of the Tang Dynasty or of the Japanese state? You enjoy the love of the people of the Tang Dynasty and the generous salary given to you by the royal court, and then train talents for the Japanese state. Is this the legendary pickpocketing Li Dan talks with Yan Weizhen while pacing around Kong Zhiyue.
"I The Confucius government has never cared about the nationality of the student, but only whether his conduct is correct and in line with our Confucius theory of educating and receiving gifts, not because of his nationality... "
"So why can't we go to Anxi and other barbarians? The people of the state of Japan are human beings. They are not from the Tang Dynasty. All of them are worthy of your Confucian doctrine. However, as a parent-child of the Tang Dynasty, I can't afford your Confucian doctrine. I wonder. Is your reputation and family background given to you by the state of Japan? " Li Dan looks at Kong Zhiyue and wants to argue, but he interrupts and asks again.
"I owe my fame and family background to the emperor and his majesty for all the honor they have bestowed on my ministers..."
"I've given you all the fame in the Tang Dynasty, but you want the Japanese to learn how to attack me. Is it wrong for you to eat inside out?" Taking advantage of Xu Yanbo's unprepared, Li Zhe suddenly stood up and looked at Yan Weizhen coldly.
"The king of England can guarantee that the barbarians in Anxi will not be in trouble with me or betray the Tang Dynasty after they have learned the ancient books of Chinese sages and made characters for them?" Yan Weizhen also takes a step forward and looks at Li Zhe who stands up and asks.
"If we want them to stop reflecting on our Tang Dynasty, we must let them share the same culture with us, and inject the soul and totem of our Chinese nation with your ancient books and books, instead of giving them up as barbarians! At that time, Confucius also knew that he traveled around the world to see the differences among the countries in the world. Although he only lobbied among the countries in the spring and Autumn period, he knew how to visit countries with different cultures and then sum up the culture that is beneficial to our Chinese nation. What about you? It's just lying on the merit books of our ancestors, wearing the hats of Confucian sages, and domineering in Chang'an city. Whether you are Yan Weizhen or you Kong Zhiyue, have you ever been to Anxi? Have you ever known the folk customs there, whether they are fierce or simple, or are they really unreasonable in the barbarian areas? It has been more than ten years since the imperial brother reorganized Anxi. Did you ever want to leave Chang'an and visit the barbarians and barbarians in Anxi? You are just relying on your impression to turn Anxi into a barbarian land. You are just hearsay that the people of Tang Dynasty in Anxi are barbarians who don't know etiquette and etiquette. But do you know that they are no longer what you imagined in the development of emperor brother these years? ""The king's words are not so good. Did the king once know more about Anxi..."
"Yes, not only did I lead my troops to fight against Dashi, tuhuoluo and Tuotuo, but I also wanted to check whether Anxi's tutelage, after so many years of development, has been divorced from the bad image in my impression. But the fact is that the wealth of Anxi and the etiquette of the people in Anxi are not so bad as you say!" Of course, Li Zhe has such a right to speak. After nearly a year's expeditions in Anxi, he knows more about whether the folk customs there are fierce or simple, whether they are barbaric or civilized.
In history, no matter in the Tang Dynasty or other dynasties, especially those literary Confucians who regard themselves as the mainstream culture of the Chinese nation, few of them are willing to step out of the Central Plains and go to other places to investigate the people's conditions. Even if they want to defend the imperial power, they have to do it under the pressure of the imperial court, in order to keep the pride and reputation of their families 。
Who is the most famous foreign envoy in the Tang Dynasty? Wang xuance has both good and bad reputation. It is still taboo to mention his name in the imperial court. After all, although his envoys to the western regions and other countries have done most amazing acts, Li Hong even talks about destroying one country by one, and he is proud of it.
But then again, besides Wang xuance, who has ever served as an envoy to other countries? Xuanzang is one of them, but he just went for the sake of Buddhism. He never brought the Chinese culture out.
The greatness and inclusiveness of the Chinese nation, which was talked about in the last generation, is particularly obvious in the Tang Dynasty. But when we include other foreign cultures, have we ever exported our culture to other places?
Even in the last generation, we can see the most famous Silk Road in the historical relics. The most basic and important role of the silk road is obviously not to transport the Chinese culture, but to sell the commodities of the Chinese nation relying on the lowest merchants in the industry and commerce, so as to achieve the historical heritage of the last world We are very proud of the influence in the trail.
Have you ever wondered why the land outside the Central Plains is not very receptive to our sense of belonging and inclusiveness of the Chinese nation?
The reason is that after the ousting of the hundred schools of thought and the exclusive respect for Confucianism, the Confucianism was spoiled by the rulers, which gave them enough soil to grow comfortably, so that he could serve the imperial power while enjoying the fame of the imperial power.
With the lack of competitors and the support of the imperial rulers behind them, they become more comfortable, so that they do not have to look for more cultivation soil for their Confucian culture, so that our mainstream culture can only take root in the Central Plains, but never be accepted by others.
Finally, as in the last generation, we need to spend a lot of money to set up Confucius Institutes in various places to increase our overseas Chinese's sense of identity with our ancestors.
Throughout the history of 5000 years, has there ever been a great scholar of Confucianism who would go out of the Central Plains and pass on their own culture to areas outside the Central Plains? Is it hard to accept in areas outside the Central Plains? But they don't even have the most basic words! Why is it hard to accept?
Is it their savage and inferior root that makes our mainstream Confucianism lose its suitable soil? But our mainstream Confucianism also broke through many obstacles and finally reached the top of the pyramid of Central Plains culture.
Therefore, our mainstream culture is popular in the Central Plains, but it is difficult to take root in other places. Is it because the imperial power does not need them to travel far to spread culture, or is it because they are spoiled by the imperial power that they lose their ambition to continue to grow?
If only Confucianism could be sown among the herdsmen ruled by the Han Dynasty since the implementation of the Han Dynasty, would the centripetal force of the Chinese nation become wider and not limited to the Central Plains?
Of course, there are many complicated reasons, but the Confucian sages who were spoiled by the imperial power lost the desire to continue to rise to the top and continue to grow stronger, and the reasons for forming inertia were inseparable.
