Rule the Roost in the Tang Dynasty: Eight hundred and fifteen, Li Zhe’s attack


Tibetan characters were strangled in the cradle by Li Hong. The characters of Anxi herdsmen tribe were the only characters in Li Hong’s rule for more than ten years. If you continue to advance to the west, you will be forced to let The five surnames and seven hopes are rooted in Anxi, with Confucian culture as the main body, spreading the essence of Central Plains culture and the essentials of maintaining imperial power.

So even a hundred years later, the Central Plains is full of flames and flocks, but in a culture of the same root and species, isn't it more radiating and expansive than the historical track? Isn't it more cohesive and centripetal?

Tradition is used to break. Our traditional culture is rooted in the Central Plains, but we never want to go out and take a look, take a look, wishful thinking that we are the center of the world, but Confucian great sages don’t know After the lack of pioneering and innovation, everything will eventually be eliminated in the face of the development of the times.

Li Zhe stood arrogantly, under the stunned group of officials, between Li Zhi and Wu Mei’s stunned expressions, he said to Kong Zhiyue and Yan Weizhen again: "You only saw the prince of the big food come to my Datang After worshiping, I feel complacent and think that my Datang is unmatched, and that our culture is the orthodox of the world! But have you ever wondered why the food is so powerful! Why are they powerful? What are they supporting them? What is the power to support their power? What makes their power stable? The essence of Buddhist scriptures was accepted and integrated by our Tang Dynasty, making our Tang Dynasty a pure land of foreign Buddhist scriptures, and making monks from the Western Regions into The noble messenger of the Tang Dynasty, but why can Da Shi be able to persist with its own culture and prevent the essence of the Buddhist scriptures from infiltrating their traditional culture? Have we ever learned experience from it? Do you understand all of this?"

Faced with Li Zhe’s series of why, Kong Zhiyue and Yan Weizhen began to look a little at a loss. They originally attended the royal banquet today, intending to start with Kong Zhiyue’s talk before his Majesty and the queen, and then extended Yan Weizhen’s Push to the stage.

Therefore, the Hongwen Pavilion, which is gradually moving away from tradition and closer to the Donggong Chongwen Pavilion, can be handed over to Yan Weizhen from Su Jing's hands.

But I don’t want to. Their purpose has not yet been implemented, and they have not yet communicated with the officials present and discussed about the Hongwenkan. They have to face the questions and doubts of the royal prince.

Li Zhe looked at Kong Zhiyue and Yan Weizhen with blank expressions and a trace of deep anger. Suddenly they pulled out the horizontal sword from the guard at the entrance of Hanyuan Hall, and then raised the horizontal sword and walked to the two of them. When the officials thought that Li Zhe was going to be rough, and when Li Zhi wanted to stop but was stopped secretly by Wu Mei, he only heard Li Zhe solemnly say: "Since you don't know why, then let me Li Zhe tell you why! "

"All the reason is because the big cannibals conquered many unheard kingdoms east and west with the war knife in their right hand and a book in their left hand! With the war knife in their right hand, Let the people of those countries succumb to their powerful force, and then use the scriptures in their left hand to convince the people of those countries that this is the only thing that can fill their hearts with strength, faith, and spiritual sustenance, and can save them from fire and water. , The only code that gives them food, clothing, and well-being. Therefore, the country conquered by the big cannibals is not so much conquered by the war knife in the right hand, as they are conquered by the code in the hands of the big cannibal! Their only belief has become their totem!

Now, do you know why the emperor brother sent all the five surnames and seven Wangs to Anxi? Now you should know that the emperor, lying on your ancestor’s book of credit, is thankless, and for you, Kong Yan, teaches your doctrine to the people on the border of the Tang Dynasty, and you not only don’t know how to be grateful, but also To be obstructed, let me ask, do you really benefit the people of Datang by doing this? "

The words of Li Zhe not only caused everyone in Hanyuan Hall to re-examine what Li Hong did. Even Li Zhi and Wu Mei stayed in Chang'an City restlessly towards Li Hong. It is the act of wanting to go out and lead soldiers to fight, and I have a new understanding.

As Li Zhe’s words disappeared in the Hanyuan Hall, the whole Hanyuan Hall was silent. Kong Zhiyue and Yan Weizhen looked at each other with complicated expressions. What Li Zhe said, even if it was a strong word, But with their insight that they have never walked out of the Central Plains, there is no way to refute it.

"Bring it up." While everyone was still silent in what Li Zhe had just said, Yin Wang Li Dan suddenly shouted to his **** at the door.

After that, everyone's eyes moved to the entrance of the Hanyuan Hall. The two eunuchs of Li Dan were carefully moving the things in their hands.

The things in the hands of the two eunuchs, after being signaled by Li Dan to put them down, they waved to let them leave.

None of the people present had even the slightest sense of familiarity with this inexplicable orb in front of them, and they didn't even know what it was for.

Wu Mei and Li Zhi also felt incredible and full of curiosity about the orb standing in front of Li Dan.

The ball is fixed on a base below, and when Li Dan's hand is slightly **** the ball, most of the ball is painted with various dense lines and small handwritings. Turned on the brackets at both ends.

"The emperor once touched the thing I made with Li Chunfeng before setting off and said that it was a long, long, long time... before, he made up this long, long, long time ago, as long as something new appeared every time, He would quote this way, so he asked the father and the queen not to pay attention to the unreliable details of the emperor's mouth, but the son thinks that the next emperor's words are definitely worthy of our thinking. He once looked at the circle. Qiu said, it’s not bad, but we still need to perfect the details and precision. Once it’s done, he will be the treasure of my Datang country." Li Dan touched the ball, as if the teacher from the Imperial College was teaching the students, confident and Calmly.

"Erchen is also very curious, how could this thing become the treasure of my Datang country? To put it bluntly, it is a wooden ball on which I and Li Chunfeng are painted with seemingly dense lines and engraved on it. It’s just a very small handwriting. So my son thought that this kind of thing was probably kept in the shops in Dongshi for ten years, I am afraid that no one would care about it. But the emperor told me, oh, it was just a long, long, long time ago Some people used him to demonstrate the greatness of imperial power, and some even crowned himself with him, so the children became more curious and cherished this treasure that I made together with Li Chunfeng." Li Dan smiled and looked at everyone, although everyone They were all like falling into the clouds and in the mist, unable to understand what they were saying, but everyone was listening quietly.

Finally, after Li Dan's gaze swept over Li Zhi and Wu Mei, and then stopped on the embarrassed Kong Zhiyue and Yan Weizhen, he patted the ball in front of him and said: "Mr. Kong, Mr. Yan, you are stubborn People think that where we are is the center of the world, so you don’t bother to grant a subset of your ancestor’s classics to the people of Datang outside the Central Plains, and you are unwilling to continue to work hard to promote your cultural essence. You are only willing to stay in front of the royal family and guard Imperial power, but do you know that your thoughts are not helping me to defend the imperial power of the Tang Dynasty, but making me lose the motivation to advance and explore the precious wealth of this world!"

"Do you guys know that the big eclipse just mentioned by the King of England, why only go east and west? Why don't they go south and north?" Li Dan was about to lie on the ball with his upper body. Now, this made Li Zhi a little worried, and his fat body collapsed the bracket under the ball.

Kong Zhiyue and Yan Weizhen had cold faces, and they were silent with each other. Obviously, they didn’t know about this issue either. They had never gone out to the Central Plains in their lives. How could they know why Da Shi only fought for things and gave up Regardless of North and South.

At this time, Wu Mei, listening to Li Dan’s words, began to care about it. Even Li Zhi had vaguely understood Li Dan’s problems in his heart~IndoMTL.com~Penglai Temple, Zichen Temple The so-called map drawn by Li Hong is hanging inside, but it is incompatible with the traditional map of Datang. It has even attracted advice from Kong Zhiyue and others. They think this map is different, but it is an unknown thing, and it is not suitable for hanging in Li Zhi. The sleeping hall.

But Li Zhi and Wu Mei knew the location of Datang from there, and they even knew the location of Dashi, Anxi, Tubo, Tocharo and other countries to the west, including the sea on the east. Location of the country.

Looking at the two men silently, Li Dan finally straightened up from the ball, stroked the map and said with a sigh: "We can no longer stand still and deceive ourselves. I, Datang, in this world, only occupy It’s just a small place, not in the center of the world we know. This world is much bigger than we thought, and it’s also a lot more magical. So we can’t be satisfied with the prosperity and prosperity of our Datang. We must be on the road of exploration forever. We must expand the influence of our Datang as much as possible and consolidate the imperial power of our Datang. Only in this way can our Datang continue to prosper and continue to create an illusion for you that we are. It is the center of the world. You Kong Zhiyue and Yan Weizhen are the orthodox doctrines of the world."

"Although the minister did not understand what the King Yin said, he started from his ancestors, traveled around the country, spread theories, and ran for the food, clothing and well-being of the people of the Li people in the world, and worked hard for me to train students, teach etiquette and learn the law. , To learn morals, so that we can become a civilized state in the Tang Dynasty, rather than being like the barbarians who do not understand etiquette, ignorance of etiquette, ignorance of morality, ministers, etc. are not willing to teach, but they never know how to respect teachers. If I don't know how to be grateful, what use is it for me to teach them?" Yan Weizhen didn't understand what Li Dan said, so he had to try to bring the topic back to his understanding of classics.
