There is the Asuka River in the south of Asuka Kyo, and the river is turbulent and abundant, and every summer it will break out into a flash flood, washing away the fertile fields and houses in the valley, often one day into an abyss and another day into a shallow, and it is unpredictable, as if the world is impermanent......

However, it was late autumn, and the autumn rain was not enough to cause the water level of the Asuka River to soar, so the scenery in the middle of the river was beautiful, and the sheds on both sides of the river swirled along the undulating hills, full of freshly harvested rice stalks that were neatly bundled and golden.

It is a land blessed by the gods, beautiful and rich.

but it is a dwelling place for the people who come to the country......

The so-called "people who crossed the sea" from the Central Plains and the Korean countries from different eras came to the Wa Kingdom.

These "Watarai people" usually migrated to the Wa Kingdom due to frequent civil wars or cultural exchanges, and the highly civilized Watarai people introduced agricultural civilizations such as farming techniques, civil engineering and construction techniques, as well as pottery, wrought iron, and textiles. When they came to the Wa Kingdom, these people generally became people of the upper class, and even the traditional Wa nobles had to be kind to each other when facing the "ferry people".

Of the 1,182 ruling class surnames, 205 were from China and 154 from the Korean Peninsula......

In fact, the number of people who came in was much higher.

Since ancient times, the Wa people have emphasized the importance of bloodlines, and have always believed that purebred people are superior to hybrids, just as purebred dogs are superior to hybrid dogs. Therefore, if you want the Japanese to want to move closer to the direction of purebred, it is likely that they will deliberately count the crossbred Japanese a little less......

*****

Nanyuan is a "ferryman".

His full name is called "Nanyuan Han People Please An", the two characters "Nanyuan" are place names, representing the place of residence, "Han people" represent identity, and the last two characters are names, such as Shiga Han people Huiyin, Gao Xiang Han people Xuanli......

There was a light rain in the sky, and it was like flying silk.

Prince Katsuragi and Nakatomi sat in a small sedan chair carried by a pole, swayed out of the south gate of Asukakyo, and walked slowly on the muddy road.

Although the road is muddy, it is relatively smooth, and although there are many mountains near Asuka-kyo, there are few rocks, except for the bluestone paving of the road in the capital, the outside of Kyoto can only be leveled with rammed earth. There was no way, the craftsmen of the Wa Kingdom were too inferior in their skills to open the mountains and quarry stones from other places and transport them to Asuka Kyo, which required a huge amount of manpower and a long time, and the Wa Kingdom did not have so many people, let alone could afford that huge expense.

Even the castle wall that surrounds Asukakyo was built only two people high due to the lack of stone......

The two of them traveled all the way south, the light rain continued, the scenery on the side of the road was beautiful, and on the slopes on both sides were the shed fields that were reclaimed one by one to grow rice, which was a farming method developed from the terraced fields, which was invented by the Han people in the "ferry people", which solved the problem of food production in Asuka Beijing and made most of the soothing slopes be utilized.

Just like the delicate cultivation of rice, this is all passed down by the Han people, and the Japanese people do not know how to ......

Therefore, the current aristocrats of the Wa Kingdom are very contradictory and entangled.

On the one hand, the arrival of the Han people, the Goguryeo people, the Silla people, and the Baekje people greatly accelerated the social productivity of the Wa Kingdom, especially the introduction of Han culture, which made the civilization level of the Wa Kingdom rise rapidly.

It is inseparable from the "people who come to the people", and they are afraid that the rights of the ruling class will be seized by the "people who come to the people", and eventually the country will become the world of the "people who come to passes......

This has laid the seeds for social conflict.

The two small sedan chairs swayed slowly, arrived at Nanyuan, and went straight to a delicate wooden building, the prince of Katsuragi and the ministers got off the sedan chair one after another, and they stood in front of the door respectfully under the light rain, and the prince of Katsuragi said respectfully: "The teacher is there?" Student Katsuragi came to visit. ”

Zhongchen Kazuzu also said: "The student Zhongchen Kazuzu came to visit the teacher. ”

The most prestigious prince of the royal family, a resourceful handsome man, stood in front of the door in such a regular manner against the light rain, which shows Nanyuan's status of asking for peace.

Respecting teachers and respecting the way, the Japanese people have long learned from the Han people, and they have continued to do so well......

The sound of footsteps in the building, not long, the wooden door "oops" life pushed open from the inside, a clear eyebrows and beautiful horn boy appeared at the door, respectfully saluted the two, and then said: "The master is cooking tea, please His Royal Highness the prince and the senior brother of the minister to enter." ”

Prince Katsuragi nodded, stepped on the threshold, took off his shoes, and stepped on the floor to enter.

Zhongchen Kazuzu stepped forward and stroked the top of the boy's head with a smile, and asked with a smile: "Have you ever been to school recently?" ”

The boy replied, "I was learning Chinese characters, but the teacher said that I was stupid and needed to be improved, so I didn't go to school." ”

Zhongchen said with a sickle foot: "The foundation is the most important, and only by laying a solid foundation can we advance thousands of miles every day, stabilize our hearts, and not be frivolous and greedy." ”

After a few words with the boy, he also took off his shoes and walked into the building behind the prince of Katsuragi.

The first floor of the wooden building is a hall with three openings, and there are more than 20 futons neatly placed on the floor, which is the seat of the students when they give lectures......

When the two entered, they saw two old men kneeling on both sides of the desk in front of the window, drinking tea and sitting opposite each other.

The prince of Katsuragi and the middle minister stepped forward, knelt on the floor, and said, "I've seen the teacher, I've seen the monk Min." ”

Nanyuan Qiu'an is an old man in his sixties, with white beard and hair, tall physique, and a purple-chested face that is not angry and arrogant, and bows his head slightly: "Don't be polite, get up and drink tea." ”

The other person was a bald monk, with a thin face and kind eyebrows, a moon-white monk's robe that was not stained with dust, and he sat there with a clear and peaceful bearing, but he smiled slightly, bowed his chin, and did not speak.

This person is called Monk Min, who is the presiding officer of Kawahara Temple, and he was also one of the students who went to study in Dasui with the edict of Emperor Tuigu with Nanyuan Yuan.

The prince of Katsuragi and the middle minister thanked each other, got up and knelt down to sit down in front of the desk, and the chief horn boy had already added two white porcelain teacups......

Zhongchen Kazuzu lifted the teapot on the desk and poured tea for several people.

There is a gap in the window, and the cold and moist air penetrates, which makes people look clear, and the hot tea enters the throat, which is smooth and pleasant.

Nan Yuan asked An not to ask the two of them what they meant, but said with a little emotion: "This kind of tea is really ingenious, just a little stir-frying, it can fully stimulate the taste contained in the leaves, how exquisite." At present, domestic aristocrats are competing to pursue it, and it seems to have become a trend, and only this one will make the money flowing into Datang every year be countable...... However, countless people in the world privately speculate and want to copy, but they have never been able to do it, and the wisdom of the Tang people is breathtaking and admirable. ”

This is a little puzzling, his ancestors are also Han people who came from the Central Plains across the ocean, and I don't know if this statement is because of the financial worries of the Japanese state, or because he is proud of his Han blood......

Master Seng Min shook his head slightly, pointed to the white porcelain tea set in front of him, and said, "Is it just tea?" Datang's porcelain firing skills are becoming more and more sophisticated, and the porcelain is becoming more and more exquisite, and only this set of tea sets is worth all the property of a middle-class family, not to mention more expensive and exquisite glassware than this. These things are gradually being sought after, and the wealth of various countries has flowed into the Tang Dynasty in large quantities, which is really worrying. ”

This man was a monk, but he was not the kind of person who stayed in the temple to chant and meditate, and since the time of Emperor Shu Ming, he has been a guest of the imperial family, giving advice to the emperor. Although he did not hold an official position, his status was much higher than that of most officials in the court.

Being outside the world, the heart is in the red dust......

Why is Datang so strong? The strong military strength ensured the stability of the domestic political situation, and the stability of the political situation promoted the development of the economy, and the prosperous economy provided huge military spending...... Today's Datang has already formed a virtuous circle in China, and as long as these links can complement each other, Datang's strength will continue to be maintained.

This is the most worrying place for all people of insight in the Japanese country, they believe that wealth is fixed, and the Tang Dynasty plunders wealth from various countries to strengthen itself, so that countries will lose a lot of wealth, and they will become weaker and more vulnerable......

Nanyuan asked An to pick out the snow-white beauty, and with a face that was not angry and arrogant, he faced the silent prince of Katsuragi and the middle minister, and said in a deep voice: "Therefore, the Japanese country has reached a situation where there is no time to delay, if the court situation is allowed to be turbulent, the government is corrupt and does not know how to change, and the day of the country's demise is not far away." Reform is imperative......"

Prince Katsuragi suddenly raised his head, and his heart was shocked.

Nan Yuan's identity is too prominent, he has studied in the Central Plains for 30 years, experienced the Sui and Tang dynasties, is knowledgeable and far-sighted, and is the leader of all the Confucians in the Japanese Kingdom, with unparalleled appeal and influence.

Since he said such things in front of himself, does this mean that the most knowledgeable Confucian class in the country has decided to fully support him?
