Chapter 56: Summer

Gao Chi was dumbfounded at this time, and Zhang Zhaohua said to him: "What I said is not contradictory. If the Mongol Jurchens are like Mr. Li, they are all interested in Chinese culture, and are willing to change from left to right, and from wearing hair to tied, then what is the difference between Huayi? What I discussed with you before is that China enters Yidi and Yidi is Yidi.www.biquge.info I am afraid that one day a foreign race will rise, and it is not the Chinese culture that they envy, but the wealth of China, they are also smart, they are not willing to be assimilated by the Han people, they are not willing to change themselves, but they want to change the Chinese clothes, and they want to change the whole Han people with their left side, then this China is still Huaxia? This is the most terrible thing, Yi Di has changed the clothes of the Han people, but it does not make the Han people feel unbearable, because he said triumphantly, although I have changed your clothes, but I still follow the Chinese way, do you recognize that such Yi Di is the lord of China? This is the distinction of Hua Yi that I want to discuss!"

Gao Chi and Li Xian were both surprised, Gao Chi shook his head and said: "How can this kind of situation happen! I think that in the previous Yuan Dynasty, all Han people were not required to wear Mongolian clothes, where would there be such a situation as you said!"

Not only was Gao Chi surprised, but in fact, even Mencius didn't think that there was such a possibility-"I have heard of those who use Xia to change to raze, but I have not heard of those who have changed to raze." But it did happen, but only Zhang Zhaohua knew at this time.

"If the princess said that there is indeed a matter of shaving hair," Li Xian remembered: "During the Jin Dynasty, Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Chang had ordered their Han people to shave their hair, and later Jin Xizong officially took power to abolish this article, but instead practiced sinicization. ”

Zhang Zhaohua didn't expect that shaving his hair and changing clothes would be practiced in the Jin Dynasty for a while, which is simply incredible, but he knows about Jin Xizong, this emperor has admired Confucian culture since he was a child, and when he saw the Jurchen nobles under him, he denounced it as "ignorant Yidi". In fact, this can also see the powerful power of Han culture, no matter what, the alien race who can run to the Central Plains will have to go back with mud, and it is estimated that the emperor Taiji of the Qing Dynasty also saw this, so he spared no effort to promote shaving and easy to wear. Like the reform of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, like the Emperor of the Liao Dynasty lamented that he would be born as a figure of the Song Dynasty in the next life, and his ancestor Jin Dynasty, probably speaking, should be the most powerful one to be assimilated, to the hands of Jin Zhangzong, Jin Zhangzong used Jurchen language to talk to his grandfather Jin Shizong, Jin Shizong was overjoyed, and was very moved, to what extent does this have to be sinicized - Also in the hands of Jin Zhangzong, the Jurchen is almost no different from the Han nationality, the country respects Confucianism, improves the imperial examination, improves the etiquette system, and repairs the legal code, just like China, which in Zhang Zhaohua's view is to use Xia to change Yi, and use Zhuxia culture to influence remote tribes outside the Central Plains.

But it was because of this that the Manchus became vigilant, and they were not stupid, and found that any nation that used the Han method eventually lost its own culture and civilization, and the Han culture had a strong counter-force -- so they decided to use their own culture to assimilate the Han people, imprison the Han people's thoughts and civilization, but they fell into it.

So when Zhang Zhaohua thought of this, he didn't know how to define "Yi to change Xia" and "Use Xia to change Yi", because if it was true that at the beginning of shaving his hair and changing clothes, it was indeed Yi to change Xia, but later he was not allowed to call himself a barbarian, and he also boasted that China was a continuation. Han culture is like a drug, once you can't resist the temptation, you can't easily quit it, and the deeper you get intoxicated, the more difficult it is to quit. This is also the smart place of the Yuan Dynasty, the Mongolian people have been selectively absorbing Han culture, they admire the most intuitive and most worldly interests of the Han culture, such as tactics, weapons, tax system, etc., they are not deeply contaminated, and they are also early to detach from the ground, so they still retain their own national characteristics, but the Jurchen tribe in Zhang Zhaohua's memory in his last life, or Manchu, seems to have not many people who know their own language.

There is a saying that the history of a nation or a dynasty is the same as a person's life, with ups and downs. Even though he knew that the Ming Dynasty would eventually come to an end, the only thing that made Zhang Zhaohua unwilling was that the regime that replaced him was not born from the mainland. When she realized this, she herself was a little surprised, before she came to the Ming Dynasty, she didn't have much awareness and discrimination about what nationality and race, but after she lived here for so long, as long as she thought of such rivers and mountains, such rituals, such crowns and appearances, and the confident light on the faces of every Han person, she was so resentful.

"When I die, the flood will be terrible. Zhang Zhaohua should have thought so, anyway, the Ming Dynasty fell two hundred years later, and it has nothing to do with her life, she can enjoy all the dividends she will get at this time, but when she really plans to ignore everything, her heart is surrounded by endless condemnation.

Even if she is allowed to travel to the last years of the Ming Dynasty, she will not have such a clear feeling, because she knows that the end of the Ming Dynasty is an era of the general trend, and almost no one can turn the world upside down, but at this time when she is here, it is the time when various systems are created, everything has not yet been fully fixed, and it is not very difficult to change. If you let her just watch history slide into a fixed abyss as she knew it, then Zhang Zhaohua would have to doubt the meaning of her own crossing, and this thought was only a flash when she was just a rural girl, and she thought that she would end up in the countryside for the rest of her life.

Now that she has been favored by God, she has an identity that she never dreamed of, and she also knows that this identity will only be higher in the future, and it will rise to the point where she can easily touch the power of the empire, she can change, instead of being powerless, if you let her look like this again but not do a little bit, it is better to let her die.

Gao Chi saw that Zhang Zhaohua's expression turned blue and pale, and she gritted her teeth from time to time, so she estimated that she was thinking about something again. He took the jade paperweight and knocked it on the table lightly, and finally woke Zhang Zhaohua up from his thoughts.

"Oh, what did I argue with you just now," Zhang Zhaohua said in a brisk tone: "What I said is just hypothetical, this Yidi Huaxia theory, let's put it aside! It's just a heartfelt emotion when I see such a character as Mr. Liβ€”β€”"
