Chapter 28 The people of the Japanese Kingdom have all gone to the Guozijian

Guozijian is located in the northwest corner of Chang'an City, not very far from Taiji Palace, and the geographical location can be said to be excellent.

For a long time, this is the highest university in Datang, and idlers have no chance to go in and study.

Early this morning, Kong Yingda, the priest of the country, came to the country early, in order to welcome a group of new students.

"Kong Sai Wine, didn't those Japanese people arrange for the Ministry of Rites to go to various workshops and yamen, why did they suddenly become the people of our country?"

Yang Tiancheng, the chief bookkeeper on the side, asked a little confused, while complaining, "The prisoners who went out of our country are all the pillars of the future imperial court, could it be that those Japanese people also stayed in Chang'an as officials?" ”

Zi said: For politics and morality, such as Beichen, live in its place and all the stars are together. My Majesty of the Tang Dynasty is known as the Heavenly Khan, the overseas vassal state of the Japanese Kingdom, and admires the profound Confucian culture of my Tang Dynasty, so it is not a bad thing for them to come and learn it, and it is not a bad thing for them to return to the country and educate the Quartet. ”

As a descendant of Confucius, Kong Yingda was very interested in expanding the influence of Confucianism, especially since the envoys of these vassal states were able to come to study in Guozijian, although it would occupy some Tang places, but in his opinion, it was completely worth it.

It also took a lot of effort for Li Kuan to persuade Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling to accept the idea of letting the Japanese go to Guozijian to study.

"Scripture is the most important discipline of Guozijian, and this time dozens of Japanese people have come in one go, and they can arrange a special teaching house."

"Master Yang, you have thought of it with the palace. His Majesty specially sent an edict to the old man, asking Guozijian to arrange for the sect to teach the Japanese scriptures alone, and even arranged for a high-ranking monk from Huayan Temple to come to Guozijian to teach Buddhism to the Japanese people. ”

Kong Yingda resisted Buddhism entering the country, but when he thought that the Japanese people were more interested in learning Confucianism, he pinched his nose and recognized it.

However, if he knew that this strange request was made by Li Kuan, he would probably hate Li Kuan to death in his heart.

"Really teach alone?"

Yang Tiancheng just said casually, but he didn't expect Kong Yingda to really ask him to manage the widows alone.

"Yes, this is His Majesty's request. These Japanese people had to devote all their time to studying scriptures and Buddhism, and were not allowed to attend lectures at the lectures of gentlemen in arithmetic, law, medicine, etc. For this reason, the palace even arranged a special eunuch to come over to supervise. Kong Yingda gave Yang Tiancheng an expression, "Well, that one over there is the inspector." ”

"This ...... How does this request feel strange? ”

"Who knows, we just have to do what the Holy Decree asks. The scriptures are broad and profound, which is enough for the Japanese people to learn, and if they don't learn the miscellaneous studies of arithmetic, maybe there will really be one or two masters of the scriptures among the Japanese people, and then our Confucianism will officially enter the Japanese country. ”

……

A few hundred steps outside the Guozi Prison, Inougami Yamada was leading a group of Tang envoys from the Wa State to the Guozi Prison.

The place where the Ministry of Rites arranged for them to settle down was not far from Guozijian, but Guozijian had never been there before.

It's not that they don't want to go, it's that the Ministry of Rites won't let them go.

In the eyes of those in the Ministry of Rites, Guozijian, as the highest institution of learning in the Tang Dynasty, has the most exquisite knowledge, and it cannot be casually allowed to study in the vassal state.

On the contrary, each workshop, whether it is under the prison or under the prison, there is nothing worth keeping secret, and the Japanese people love to learn and learn.

Strange tricks only!

"Inu-kun, this time I was able to go to the country to study, and thanks to Ichiro, his injury was not in vain."

As the deputy envoy of the Tang envoy sent by the Japanese State, Kujo Shinichi was a well-known sinologist in the Japanese State, and after coming to Chang'an, he always wanted to go to the Guozijian to see it, but he was rejected every time.

This time, the Tang Dynasty arranged dozens of Tang envoys to study in Guozijian in one go, and arranged dozens of Tang envoys to study in various temples in Chang'an, which was completely unexpected by Jiujo Shinichi.

It seems that Inu Kazuro was not beaten in vain by His Royal Highness the King of Chu.

The Tang Emperor said that he would arrange someone to investigate and verify, but in fact he had already taken action to appease the Japanese people.

So Shinichi Kujo thinks this deal is really valuable.

"Humph! I heard that the eldest man of Jiutiaojun is also fifteen years old this year, why don't you let him come to Chang'an next time, and let the king of Chu give him a son and grandson? ”

Inoujo is the main envoy, and Kujo is the deputy envoy.

It seems that the two of them have a subordinate relationship, but in fact, Kujo and Inoujo are both nobles of the Wa Kingdom, and the Wa Emperor's arrangement has the intention of letting them contain each other.

So although Inugami also agrees with Kujo's statement in his heart, he feels that his son is not injured in vain.

But recognition is recognition, and it always feels a little ...... for others to say it

It's not just a hand injury......

"Inu-kun, Ichiro, he is also contributing to the country. The descendants of the Inoujo family are luxuriant, although Ichiro is the boss, but he is not a descendant, and he can't look at inheriting the title of Inujo-kun, so you don't have to mind too much. Maybe Ichiro will be a blessing in disguise, and maybe after returning to China, Minister Su I will have another reward. ”

"I always feel that Datang's attitude has suddenly changed, which is a bit strange. At the beginning, we first arranged for people to go to Guozijian, and the Ministry of Rites did not let anyone go, but we were not in a hurry to let us choose from various workshops. Now that it's suddenly the other way around, could there be some conspiracy? ”

Inougami and Kujo were talking, and Hiroyuki Ito, who was also a deputy envoy, raised his confusion.

"Ito-kun, Ichiro paid so much for the opportunity to study in Kunikojian, how can there be a conspiracy?"

Inougami Yamada is not happy, you Hiroyuki Ito said so, if you send it back to China, won't Ichiro's injury be in vain?

"That's right, Ito-kun. Guozijian is the highest university in the Tang Dynasty, and being able to come here to study is the main purpose of our business. When those of us return to Japan after completing our studies, His Majesty the Emperor will definitely use us again. ”

"Those in China who have learned a little bit of Sinology from the Silla people can mix well, and those of us who have worked hard in Datang will naturally have a different status after we go back, which can be guaranteed."

At this point, the dog is not lying.

No matter what they learned in the country, they will be reused when they return to the country.

After reuse, these people must do a good job of selling, selling, and spreading what they have learned, otherwise they will not be able to reflect their own level and irreplaceability.

It was precisely when Li Kuan saw this that he asked Li Shimin to arrange for the envoys sent by the Japanese State to the Tang Dynasty to go to school Confucianism and Buddhism.

As for the strange skills of iron-making and paper-making, it would be disrespectful to let the envoys of the feudal kingdom learn them.
