CHAPTER XIXI

At noon, Shen Yilun and Chen Jian and their entourage arrived in Fancheng slowly and leisurely, and then took a ferry to Xiangyang.

After separating from Zhao Dezhao, their group of old, weak, sick and disabled people traveled less than 100 miles a day under the escort of a hundred guards, and they had to go to observe the historic sites when they encountered them.

Fortunately, in Nanyang, there are no bandits, and a small group of bandits dare not do it, if it is in the mountains, Zhao Dezhao will have to worry about his own push documents.

Chen Kuan's arrival was not publicized, and not many people knew that he was coming, but it was Zhao Dezhao's trip, which attracted many people to stop.

Zhao Dezhao was concerned about people on the surface, but he had already explained to Tong Liang, and as soon as the ship docked, he sent someone on board and carried up the two boxes of pushable documents first.

"The Taoist has worked hard all the way, and I have arranged the chamberlain and prepared a guest room for you in the Jiedu Embassy Mansion."

Chen Jian did not show any fatigue on his body, and his middle-aged Taoist spirit was even better. He replied to Zhao Dezhao and said: "The old road traveled all the way to the mountains and rivers, and he was not bitter at all, and he heard the four general orders of the prince on the way, and the old road also had a lot of puzzles, and he wanted to ask the prince to explain his doubts." ”

Zhao Dezhao laughed and said: "Since the Taoist is here, there is naturally time, and there will be a drill in the western suburbs in a few days, if the Taoist is present, it will naturally add a lot of color." ”

The two exchanged a few words, and Zhao Dezhao turned to Shen Yilun and his family, as well as Yu Hao's family.

In a few days, the personnel relations will be dealt with, and the construction of Xiangyang City will be put on the agenda.

At that time, Yu Hao was going to be of great use.

welcomed the group into the inner city and walked forward to the yamen of the transfer department, which is also the place where Shen Yilun will work in the future.

Chen Luan's carriage also stopped, "Prince, there are many rules in the Jiedu Embassy, and the old road is used to idle clouds and wild cranes, and he has already discussed with the transfer envoy on the way, and the old road is asking for a place to live in the yamen of the transfer department." ”

Zhao Dezhao pondered on the horse and said, "If the Taoist chief wants to see the information I said, he must go to the Jiedu Embassy. ”

Chen Jian hesitated for a moment and asked, "But the information can't be leaked?" ”

Zhao Dezhao nodded. Chen Tuan could only confess to Shen Yilun and follow Zhao Dezhao to the Jiedu Embassy.

Chen Jian was old and famous, and lived in the Jiedu Embassy, and the Wang family and the Chen family also came to visit one after another.

Then the chef was arranged to prepare a vegetarian banquet to entertain Chen Tuan.

After being full of wine and food, Zhao Dezhao took out a booklet and gave it to him.

This is not the doctrine of Shinrikyo, but the theory of "State and Nation" written by Confucius in the Ming Dynasty.

At the beginning, under the persecution of Zhao Dezhao, in order to get rid of the crime, the Kong family could only bite the bullet and it took half a year to complete this exposition.

Before opening its eyes to the world, before the invasion of Western culture, China had no concept of a state, only a dynasty.

After the fall of the Ming Dynasty and the tyranny of the Qing Dynasty, the concept of the nation was also born.

Before that, there was only the concept of family.

In the Ming Dynasty, where Zhao Dezhao lived, in order to make the literati and the common people accept the concept of the state and the nation, the Confucian family could only be allowed to go out.

However, in this era, the Kong family is just a small family, and there is no glory for future generations at all.

Although in the Tang Dynasty, Li Longji named Confucius as the Duke of Wenxuan, but he only respected Confucius, not the Confucian family, and the Confucian family inherited the prince, but there were only nine products, and there was only a local county order.

During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, the world was in turmoil, and their family was almost wiped out, leaving only the only direct descendant.

It was not until the reign of Song Renzong that they were named the Holy Princes of Yan. Since then, it has only gotten bigger.

The current Kong family is not worth mentioning at all, and in the future, it is impossible to have the opportunity to be crowned a holy prince.

Therefore, Zhao Dezhao does not need to find the Confucian family to promote the concept of the country and the nation, he can do it himself, and he can also fall to a very high reputation.

Of course, it is impossible for him to completely remember all the contents of the tens of thousands of words of this policy, but he remembers the main central points of the policy clearly.

The words "country and nation" are actually easy to explain. But it is not easy to explain them clearly and form a complete set of ideas.

How is a country different from a dynasty? Why are there new dynasties? How to replace dynasties with states and form a real cultural, political, economic core?

Moreover, there is actually a conflict between the state and the family.

Before the Qing Dynasty, there was no concept of nation, and before the Republic of China, there was no concept of state.

Although there was a saying in the Spring and Autumn Period that "if you are not of my race, your heart will be different", the distinction between races and races is in a narrow sense, and it is not at all a distinction between races in the broad sense of the later generations.

If we want to carry out the inheritance of national and national culture in a broad sense a thousand years ago, it is necessary to sort out the concepts and relationships between the two.

In the hearts of most of the ancients, the clan was the most important thing, because it was the root of everyone.

The hidden power of the clan also far exceeds the others.

If you want to talk to him about the nation, it is more important to talk to him about the country, that's nonsense.

The people of the Song Dynasty also did not have the concept of nation and state, and after the Wuhu Rebellion, many ethnic groups integrated into the Central Plains and became Chinese.

Take Murong Defeng's family as an example, they were originally nobles of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and they had developed in China during the Sui Dynasty, although they still had the surname of Murong for hundreds of years, they were no different from others for a long time.

Think about it, they have been passed down for dozens of generations, and almost every generation is a Han woman marrying, even if there is a little foreign blood, each generation is less than one-half, and after dozens of generations, how many are there? Not one in a million.

Therefore, at this time, if you say that the Murong family is a foreign race and is not of the same nationality as us, then the Murong family will not regard you as an enemy!

As for the state, what is the state? I only know that there are dynasties, and they are all family worlds, family dynasties, and it's a big deal to change the emperor.

At the beginning, the Kong family was forced by Zhao Dezhao to change his manuscript several times, and finally wrote a version that satisfied him.

And now, what Zhao Dezhao gave to Chen Tuan is the main content of this version.

Chen Jian saw the cover, froze for a moment, and sighed: "This font is really an iron painting silver hook, and the power penetrates the back of the paper, and the old way is better than ......."

Zhao Dezhao smiled and didn't speak, so he continued to watch.

He looked at the five big characters of country and nation for a long time, as if he was guessing what this meant, and after a long time, he turned to the first page.

The content inside is written in pencil, horizontally, with punctuation.

Chen Tuan didn't care about the novelty, and he was attracted by the first sentence.

"Country: region, home: small region. The country is everyone, and the home is a small country. What is the country, the non-regional statement can be clarified, and the home, not a house and a courtyard can be represented.

Family: The elders are orderly, the blood is inherited, the relationship is clear, the feelings of love and hatred are gathered. The country is more complicated than the home. ”

Chen Jian looked through the booklet with 20,000 words and dozens of pages, raised his head and said: "If the prince has something, he can go to get busy first, wait for the old Taoist to observe it first, and then talk in detail." ”

Zhao Dezhao has a lot of things, and you're welcome. "As long as the Taoist leader doesn't take the booklet out, he can do whatever he wants. If you want to go out for a walk, just explain...... Fan Zhao, waiting for a good Taoist. ”

"Whoa."

In the afternoon, Zhao Dezhao met with three more classes of officials from different places to learn about the local population, production, and people's lives.

Now that it is difficult to travel, it is impossible for him to travel to all the regions under his jurisdiction like the officials of later generations.

It is mainly up to the officials to understand the situation in different regions.

Of course, when Jinyiwei is really formed in the future, it will have its own channels.

Because Chen Tuan came, Zhao Dezhao did not leave any guests, sent away the last batch of officials arranged, and returned to the Intermediate Court.

"Is the Taoist still reading?"

"Yes, I didn't go out all afternoon."

Zhao Dezhao first went back to the backyard to change into his official uniform and put on his regular clothes, and then came to Chen Luan's guest room.

The light in the room was not very good, the chamberlain Fan Zhao lit a candle, and Chen Jian was immersed in reading.

He was so fascinated that he almost forgot the environment outside him, and waited for Zhao Dezhao to salute before he raised his head a little dazedly.

However, he soon came to his senses, and even saluted: "Lao Dao lived to be ninety-five years old, but he is not as good as the prince's fifteen-year-old opinion, this worship is not for the identity of the prince, but only for the talent of the prince." ”

Zhao Dezhao hurriedly avoided it and returned the half-salute. "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be."

"Deserved, deserved."

The two politely exchanged words for a while before Zhao Dezhao sat down next to him. "Can you finish reading it?"

"I have read it twice, and now I have studied it again, but there are many words, many words, and I can only guess them. The more I know, the more profound I feel, and I can die at night......"

Zhao Dezhao said with a smile: "I don't listen to the Taoist's praise, but I want to throw bricks and lead the jade......"

"Don't say that, you're not throwing bricks, it's a real treasure jade...... he sighed and said: "Lao Dao is a person outside the square, and his only hobby is to read books, and he can read thousands of books, which is not as shocking as today." Now I know that I lived in a daze, and today I can see the world clearly...... No, the state. ”

Seeing that Chen Qian was a little excited, Zhao Dezhao deliberately asked someone to make him a pot of tea and let him bring snacks.

At this interruption, Chen Luan's emotions calmed down.

At this time, Pei Ge'an came back in the carriage, and when he got out of the car, he asked Zhao Dezhao where he was.

Tong Liang lured her over, and when she entered the house, she stared at Chen Jian curiously for a long time, and asked in a low voice, "Is he really ninety-five years old?" ”

Zhao Dezhao smiled and nodded.

Chen Jian stared at Pei Ge'an for a while, sighed and said, "The prince can't see through it, so he is willing to follow him to Xiangyang, and he wants to see it clearly." But I never thought that I would meet a girl who couldn't see through it. ”

Zhao Dezhao smiled, and he didn't explain, and he didn't have to explain, Chen Tuan's curiosity about private people was not so heavy.

A ninety-five-year-old man, except for righteousness and Taoism, there is nothing that can arouse his interest.

"We don't need to hide from her when we speak, no matter what doubts the Taoist chief has, he can say it directly. Let the Taoist master understand the concept of the country and the nation, and then I can take out another booklet to show you. ”

Chen Jun nodded. "I also understand your intention to ask me to come, Xia Worm is not enough to talk about ice......"

(The update will be as usual in the early hours of tomorrow, and it will be on the shelves at noon, but unfortunately there is no manuscript saved, crying...... )
