Chapter 140 Ming Imperial Spirit Palace
Chapter 140 Ming Imperial Spirit Palace Eastern Capital, Chang'an City, Imperial City.
Located in the Imperial Palace, the tablets of more than 500 emperors in China, including the gods of the ancient 36 emperors invited back from China, are all enshrined here. In addition, the Ming Kingdom also enshrined all the heroes, loyal ministers, generals, and martyrs of more than 80 dynasties in the history of China from the beginning of the Xia and Shang dynasties to the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, including the Chinese soldiers who died in the historical foreign wars, in other imperial palaces.
Like many soldiers in battles who don't know their names, they simply write the spiritual positions of the fallen soldiers in a certain war in a certain dynasty, a certain year, and a certain war.
The Imperial Spirit Palace is not small, it uses the location of the Zhongshu Province of the Imperial City of Chang'an City, you must know that the Zhongshu Province of Chang'an City was originally a furnishing, because the Zhongshu Province has an independent office location in the Eastern Capital, so it is idle and idle, so it was given to the Jingling Palace to use.
After the news that the Ming Kingdom enshrined more than 500 Chinese emperors and thousands of historical heroes, loyal ministers, and heroic martyrs came out, the social response of the world was mixed, and this form was nothing in the eyes of the West, but in the eyes of Chinese scholars, this kind of behavior was unimaginable in modern society, and there seemed to be no special official form in Huaxia and Wanwan to worship the habits of the former emperors or meritorious heroes.
Some of the Chinese scholars are the first to applaud, some continue to be sarcastic, many scholars even want to come to the Ming Kingdom to visit the Imperial Spirit Palace, and some people even said on the official Weibo/blog of the Ming Kingdom that the soldiers who died in the War of Resistance against Japan should also be enshrined here. But there was no official response from the Ming Kingdom.
Qiandu Hanfu Tieba immediately launched an activity, planning to organize Hanfu colleagues to go to the Ming Kingdom in the season of the Dragon Boat Festival and visit the Royal Spirit Palace to worship. This move immediately drew a response from many of his comrades. Although most of the Hanfu colleagues are student parties, there must be a large number of bases, so a large number of local tyrants soon signed up to participate.
It is precisely for this reason that many Chinese scholars believe that Zhu Wei has a far-sighted vision, which can be said to be far-sighted, and if Zhu Wei occupies the "orthodoxy" of China, then the ideology of the Chinese nation is likely to shift to the Ming State in the future.
In other words, the Ming Kingdom will become a place of worship that the Chinese people regard as an orthodox Han land.
Some people also say that this is the "Yasukuni Shrine" of the Ming Kingdom, but Zhu Wei is full of contempt for this statement at all, and for this reason, the State Affairs Book of the Ming State has solemnly stated to the news media on many occasions that Japan's Yasukuni Shrine is the evil place where war criminals are enshrined. The Imperial Spirit Palace of the Ming Kingdom is a place to worship all the emperors of the Chinese nation and the famous ministers and generals who have dedicated their lives to the country and the nation. At all, the Yasukuni Shrine in Japan is not worthy of being compared with the Imperial Spirit Palace at all.
As soon as this remark came out, the Japanese government immediately caused an uproar, and Japan's prime minister, defense minister, including foreign minister, and even cabinet members have accused China in mainstream official media such as the Mainichi Shimbun, the Asahi Shimbun, and the Yomiuri Shimbun, that if they do not understand the history of World War II, they have no right to speak, and at the same time demand that Ming Guo be a responsible country and remain neutral in world politics.
The prime minister of the Ming State immediately refuted, first claiming that Japan was recognized by the whole world as the evil axis of World War II and was a fascist, and that it did not recognize it when it entered the 21st century, which is the biggest irresponsibility in history, and if Japan continues to rudely accuse the Ming country, it will affect Japan's image and influence in the Ming country.
Then he accused the Japanese warships of World War II for drifting to Mingguo Island, killing Ming civilians on the island, burning, killing and looting all kinds of evil, leaving only a few hundred of the tens of thousands of islanders in Mingguo. Japan's protests were ineffective, and Japan should apologize to Ming for what the evil World War II Japanese soldiers did in Mingguo.
It is a fact that the population of the Ming Kingdom has been oppressed by foreigners, but there are no witnesses and evidence to confirm this, if it is true, then the Ming Kingdom is really pitiful, in this regard, the world's netizens have launched a war of verbal attacks and scolding against Japan.
Now Japan has suffered a dumb loss, and they are no longer silent.
Zhu Wei doesn't think about the world's vision, he always does his own thing.
At this moment, he is visiting the Imperial Spirit Palace, accompanied by people from all walks of life in the Ming Kingdom, including officials, educators, scholars, traditional culture lovers, and students of the Ming Kingdom.
In order to prepare a grand ceremony for the completion of the palace, more than 100 Taoist priests and more than 100 monks were invited from China to perform rituals.
It is worth mentioning that the monks recruited by Zhu Wei are unknown ascetics in China, in China, only 0.1% of the real monks, it is these ascetics, many other monasteries are contracted, famous mountains and temples rely on fame to make huge profits, sell the so-called enlightened items, sell high incense, countless good men and women have been deceived.
And Zhu Wei specially invited the monks of the Dabei Temple in the Haicheng area of Liaoning, one of the very few Buddhist monasteries in mainland China that does not set up a merit box, and the merit box is pasted with "No money"
All the monks wear patched clothes every day, get up at 2 o'clock every morning to recite the mantra 10 times, recite the precepts for 2 hours in the afternoon, and rest for 4 hours a day. Maintain the Buddha's system, starting on August 15 every year, begging for food on the way to the arvuls.
Compared with the copper-smelling Shaolin and the gold-swallowing predators of the Four Great Buddhas, in Zhu Wei's eyes, this is the real monk.
Zhu Wei sent people to search all over China, only to find more than 100 such ascetic monks and Taoist priests, and sincerely invited them to come to the Ming Kingdom, knowing the righteousness and reasoning, and soon the sincerity moved the other party.
After they came to the Ming Kingdom, they fell in love with the Ming Kingdom, and there were 159 temple-like buildings in Chang'an City, each of which had its own merits, and these temples were hidden under green trees, or leaning on green bamboos, or covered with cherry blossoms, or green pines and cypresses, or lush ginkgo biloba, or maple streams.
The quiet temples, usually the façade of the stone archway, are low, plain, shady, stone lanterns, and clean bluestone roads, like a resting place for the soul everywhere, full of Zen charm, even if it is usually attracted to the people of the Ming Kingdom to stop and watch.
These temples were not auctioned off like other residential and commercial establishments, but could only be used as temples, and of course Zhu Wei could not leave them empty, so Zhu Wei decided to give two of them, Dajiefu Temple and Chengxing Temple, to the immigrant monks.
Nine of the other monasteries were selected to serve as the headquarters of the future Nine Great and Six Sects.
Three more monasteries were selected to be converted into academies, and a month later, the group of genetics, thinkers, philosophers, and great Confucians were used as teaching places.
As for those who are responsible for the inheritance of traditional Chinese skills, Zhu Wei will arrange for them to be placed in the place where they will be imprisoned, where they have a comprehensive set of tools, which is just right for them to carry out manual work. The production of handmade Ming handicrafts, including ceramics, lacquerware, woodwork, folding fans, stationery, building technology, lanterns, and all other traditional ethnic artworks is located here.
