However, Qin Qiong was more keen, aware of this, and arched his hand: "The dog and the others are stubborn, so that everyone laughs, the three of them came up with a lazy idea, but they are too lazy to do it, fortunately, after Kong Sheng, it took a year to write the book, otherwise the pearl will definitely be dusted." ”

Cheng Yanjin also came over suddenly, nodded and said: "Kong Huisuo, the old man heard that the dog mentioned you, saying that you are one of the few Confucian students in the Guozi Prison who can see the right eye. Then it is terrifying. ”

"Thank you Lu Guogong for your compliment." Kong Huisuo said respectfully.

Kong Yingda breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately, the three mallets rounded the scene back, and the focus of the court was on Kong Huisuo's body again.

Li Shimin nodded, glanced at Kong Huisuo and said: "Since it is after Kong Sheng, he has compiled such a precious book for the children of the world, but he will first go to Guozijian as a teaching assistant, and the grade is one level higher than the seventh grade." ”

"Teaching assistant of the seventh grade!" Kong Yingda couldn't help but sigh in his heart, originally according to his plan, he could send Kong Yingda to Chongwen Pavilion, so it would naturally be much better than staying in Guozijian.

Kong Huisuo was about to thank him, when he suddenly heard Morton say loudly: "Your Majesty is slow, Weichen thinks that Brother Kong's "Dictionary" still has a great merit that has been ignored, and Your Majesty's reward is suspected of neglecting the meritorious hero?" ”

"Oh! A great credit? You kid don't have to be a fool, thinking that if you have a good relationship with Kong Huisuo, you can ask for credit for him. Li Shimin warned.

And Kong Huisuo was also at a loss, the "Dictionary" was compiled by him, how could he not know how many merits there were, and where there would be great merits.

Even Kong Yingda was shocked, not knowing what Merton's move meant.

Merton said proudly: "Your Majesty, if it is based on the dictionary alone, it is naturally not a great achievement, and if it is connected to the elementary school, it is a great achievement. ”

"Humph! Speak up! Li Shimin snorted coldly, he hated Merton the most.

Merton was suddenly embarrassed, picked up a dictionary and said: "Your Majesty, please look at the dictionary, in addition to using radicals and strokes to sort them for easy searching, Brother Confucius also uses sound rhyme to arrange the homophonic parts in order. ”

"So what?" Li Shimin was puzzled.

Merton laughed and said: "Your Majesty doesn't know, the so-called ten miles of different sounds, a hundred miles of different customs, my Tang Dynasty is thousands of miles apart, and the language is thousands of miles apart, I'm afraid it is already the tone of the voice, for example, when the southerners go to the north, communicating with people, it is like talking to chickens and ducks, and playing the piano to cows." ”

"Rude!" Du Chuke sneered at Merton.

Merton retorted: "This is a fact, take your adults as an example, they must be the elites of all parts of the world, you have been in Chang'an City for a long time, and you will naturally speak official language, but you ask yourself, compared with the language of your childhood, I am afraid that the local accent has already changed!" ”

Many officials have been silent, they have lived in Chang'an City for a long time, sometimes go back to the province, it is true that they find that the township pronunciation has changed, the villagers can naturally understand what they say, and it is difficult for the villagers to understand when they speak, and sometimes it takes a few days to slowly adapt.

"What does this have to do with what you call great merit?" Li Shimin frowned.

"Of course it has a relationship, this dictionary is compiled according to the homophony, if you go further, compile this sound according to the official dialect of Chang'an, and then let the master teach it to every student by primary education, so that all students in the world learn the same sound, wouldn't it be the completion of the same sound that Qin Shi Huang did not achieve." Merton said excitedly.

"Words in unison!"

"Words in unison!"

Merton was like dropping a depth charge, and suddenly the calm and waveless court was blown up in turbulent waves.

The important ministers who were usually not shocked by honor and disgrace were now surprised one by one, no one thought that such a grand plan would come from the hands of two weak-crowned young men, if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, I'm afraid they wouldn't have dared to believe it.

Li Shimin stood up excitedly, and couldn't help pacing around, Qin Shi Huang burned books and pit Confucianism, and implemented tyranny, but no matter how later generations smeared, they could not erase Qin Shi Huang's merits, that is, the book is the same text, the car is on the same track, the weights and measures are unified, and the world is one.

This is the merit of no emperor in the past dynasties can surpass Qin Shi Huang, and now the Tang Dynasty will be able to realize another plan to unify the world, that is, the same sound,

The thought of being able to compete with Qin Shi Huang was a great temptation for Li Shimin, who paid attention to fame.

At this moment, Kong Yingda's eyes when he looked at Merton became inexplicable, originally because Merton made a mess of Kong Huisuo's credit, he was resentful in his heart, but at this moment, Merton actually turned his hand and gave Kong Huisuo a great achievement.

"The dialects of various places in the world are different, and the homophony is not only convenient for students from all over the Tang Dynasty to communicate, but also a sharp weapon for education, so as to say that officials go to work in different places, a Beijing official has just arrived in a different place, and even the local language is not understood, how to govern the people, if the world speaks with the same sound, there is naturally no such inconvenience." Merton added another fire.

Many officials nodded one after another, they came to Chang'an City from all directions and felt inconvenient in language, and when they went to work in one place, I am afraid that they would encounter the same scene, if the world is the same, there will naturally be no obstacles.

Merton said again: "Moreover, in addition to educating the people of the Tang Dynasty, it also has a miraculous effect on naturalizing all ethnic groups in the border passes. If we take the initiative to open primary schools in the barbarian tribes, teach Chinese characters, speak Chinese, and promote Chinese etiquette, when these teenagers grow up, understand etiquette, speak the same language as us, write the same characters, wear the same clothes, even if they are blonde and blue-eyed Hu people, how can you say that they are not Han Chinese? ”

The officials nodded one after another, if it was the blonde and blue-eyed Hu people wearing Hanfu, everyone thought that it was just a monkey and crowned, and if it was a fluent official language, it would naturally feel more cordial.

"Take the repeated rebellions of the southwestern bureaucrats, one of the biggest reasons is that the language and customs are different, and the communication is not smooth, if the court opens a primary school in every village and teaches them the official language that can be used anywhere, it will change customs and customs for a long time, and it will definitely quietly integrate into our China, and then Huayi will not be an empty talk." Merton said excitedly.

"I'm afraid it's not as easy as Mohou!" Du Chuke couldn't help but sneer.

As the saying goes, ten years of trees, a hundred years of people, even if the Tang Dynasty has just conquered Tuyuhun can become the most loyal and inseparable land of my Datang, this is my Datang's hundred-year plan." ”

"A hundred-year plan."

Suddenly, Li Shimin's heart was pounding, this is the best weapon for naturalization, so that every time the Tang Dynasty conquers a place, it only needs to be implemented in this way, and after a hundred years, it will definitely allow Huaxia to gain a firm foothold.
