In the early morning, when the students in Huayang Cave Academy began to read in the morning, Liu Chongjiao, as the head of Huayang Cave Academy, came to Tang Haoran's room early in the morning, looked at Tang Haoran seriously, and then nodded slightly.

"If Tang Jun wants to worship in the temple, he can change his clothes in the room first!"

Facing the three sets of Confucian robes he prepared, this Confucian robe is somewhat different from the Confucian robes of Korean Confucians, and it is obviously the Han family clothes specially prepared by him.

Facing the Confucian robe prepared by the academy, Tang Haoran was silent, although he didn't want to admit it, but he had to admit that in the academy these days, he was touched by the atmosphere here all the time, and he seemed to understand why there were people in the late Qing Dynasty who "went to Wandong and everyone cried".

Not only Tang Haoran is like this, even Han Che and Li Han, who came here with Tang Haoran, have also set off waves from time to time in the past three days, witnessing thousands of articles and poems in the forest of steles reminiscing about the previous dynasty and saddening the sinking of Huaxia Lu, and all kinds of tastes are mixed in the hearts of the two.

The moment a light green Confucian robe was worn on his body, whether it was Han Che or Li Han, he only felt that his heart was beating suddenly, and a kind of love that had never been born before spread in his chest.

"This, this is ......"

This is our ancestral clothes in China!

muttering, Han Che only felt that his eyes were hot, and the tears seemed to be about to gush out, but Li Han felt as if he was grabbed by the throat, and he couldn't even breathe, looking at the clothes of his homeland that had been separated for more than two hundred and forty years, that complex emotion permeated his heart.

Not to mention them, it was Tang Haoran, who knew that his trip was just to take advantage of these Korean Confucian students, after putting on a Han-style Confucian robe. It was suddenly difficult to calm down. Slightly warm eye sockets. The eyes are even more red, why do you have such a feeling?

It is a kind of belonging solidified in the blood, belonging to the nation, this spiritual sense of belonging is by no means something that a robe and a horse coat can bring, nor can it be brought by a suit, looking back at the two people behind him, they don't seem to be much better than themselves.

"Sir, sir......"

Han Che and Li Han all looked a little nervous, in their nervousness. Tang Haoran took off the fake braid he was wearing, and then looked at the two.

"Do you know why you're here?"

Looking at the three people of the same age as himself, Tang Haoran asked rhetorically, Han Che was silent, and Li Han, who had always been taciturn, first glanced at the clothes on his body, but said softly on the side.

"Sir, we are Han!"

When he raised his head, when he looked at the small mirror on the side, his brow furrowed and tightened. Suddenly, his gaze fell on the sailor's dagger that he had carried with him, which had been cut by the sailor on the ship. Nature is extremely sharp.

“……”

In Han Che's exclamation, he saw that the blade of the knife cut the back of the head, and the braid that had been left for twenty-six years was cut off by Li Han.

"Your Excellency."

Throwing the broken braid on the ground, Li Han looked at Tang Haoran and said seriously.

"Now, your lord can take me to worship the emperor!"

A soft word, a broken braid seems to mean some kind of rupture of something, and sometimes, something doesn't need to be said, something is already ingrained in people's blood.

When Tang Haoran and the three walked out of the room, Liu Chongjiao and Liu Linxi's faces all changed slightly, and then their expressions were upright, and Liu Chongjiao, who stood solemnly, bowed to Tang Haoran and said.

"Tang Jun, please!"

At this time, there is no need for more words, there is just a kind of solemnity, a kind of solemnity, today's worship is only six people, located in the top of the mountain behind the academy of Wandong Temple, the highest ancestral hall is three rooms, one east and west mezzanine room, five rooms in the front hall, the bedroom and the pavilion are hung with curtains, the interior is dedicated to the spiritual seat of Ming Shenzong and Chongzhen Emperor during the sacrifice, and the white paper is pasted on the two tablets, and the book "Emperor Shenzong Xian Emperor" and "Emperor Yizonglie Divine Position" are written.

After a group of six people entered the temple, they first saw a stone tablet, only to see the stone carving on the tablet:

"Woohoo, Hanxia is filthy, the nine temples are subverted, the temple of the Son of Heaven is sent down to the barnyard sea, between the poor cliffs and deep valleys, and the world is also changing. Although I am clear about the righteousness of the eastern soil, Yi Lun is determined, with the will of my monarch and ministers of the day, dedicated to the spirit of the first emperor, and there will always be a resignation in the world and future generations. The matter is small but its righteousness is profound, and he is detained for being rude and intended to be a tyrant, and the evil is enough to know? ”

The heartache between the words carved on the stele suddenly jumped in front of the eyes of the group, which only made several people feel a burst of sentimentality, from Tang Haoran, who had a dream before, after entering the shrine, his expression was solemn at the same time, and his heart became more and more respectful.

Tang Haoran, Han Che, and Li Han solemnly knelt down and bowed...... On the altar, there are earthen ceremonies prepared by the shoin to be brought from Japan, and these offerings are specially brought from Japan.

Tang Haoran, who was kneeling in front of the throne, looked up at the "Emperor Yi Zonglie Divine Throne", and couldn't help but think of Emperor Chongzhen's masterpiece in his mind, "I died, I saw my ancestors in the ground without a face, and I took off my crown and covered my face with my hair." Let the thief split the corpse, don't hurt the people", his heart was thoughtful, his eyes were suddenly hot, and it was convenient for him to recite the sacrifice in his heart when he knocked.

"But Yongli 244 years (1), the age of Gengyin, the remnant Tang Haoran, dare to announce to the spirit of the first emperor of Shenzong and Yizong: during the Jiashen period, the Manchu Qing Dynasty stole the country, two hundred and forty-six years of enslavement, to this day, the country is dead and slaves, the galaxy is vast, only see the Han and Tang Dynasties, the sun and the moon are Zhaoxi, so the country is bright, today the remnants of the people in front of the two emperors swear an oath, he will raise troops against the Qing Dynasty in the future, in order to restore my China, I hope the two emperors will be blessed by the spirit of the sky......"

Although it was silent, a little murmur still flowed out of his voice, but no one said anything, perhaps, for Tang Haoran, this worship is just an attitude, just a gesture, a show made in order to take advantage of those Confucian students.

But when he was here, silently reciting the sacrificial text, Tang Haoran found that his whole person was immersed in this solemn and sad atmosphere, so that he couldn't extricate himself.

After worshipping, Tang Haoran and his entourage came to the Zhanxing Terrace, here is the place where the imperial pen is copied, here is the place where the Korean monarchs and ministers copy the imperial pen of the Ming Dynasty emperor and express the feelings of Siming, since Song Shilie opened the precedent of copying and writing the imperial pen of Emperor Chongzhen "indecent and immovable", and then successively copied and engraved the imperial pen of Shenzong "Yuzao curling", "Si Wuxie" Looking at the imperial pen of Emperor Chongzhen on the stone carving, Tang Haoran silently read these four words, but the words became to his mouth.

"If you don't move, you don't have to do it, you don't have to fight, you don't fight......

Reading this sentence from Sun Tzu's words in the Art of War, Tang Haoran, who had already realized that he was too flamboyant, did not go to Huanzhang Nunnery to watch the imperial pen, but chose to leave, but when leaving, Tang Haoran still looked towards the stone carving, but this time Tang Haoran attracted Tang Haoran is the "Great Tomorrow Land, Chongzhen Sun and Moon" left by Song Shilie, maybe he came right, and he did not have any interest in "anti-Qing and Ming restoration", after all, he is not surnamed Zhu, But this did not prevent him from being full of nostalgia and inexplicable affection for the Ming Dynasty, the last dynasty of the Han people. This kind of good feeling came from later generations, and at this time, this kind of good feeling became stronger and stronger because of the Siming atmosphere felt by Huayang Cave Academy, and the impact on his mentality was not even realized by himself, but when he left, his mood was more solemn than before.

After Tang Haoran walked the Wandong Temple, he looked back at the four characters of "Ten Thousand Folds Must Be East", which came out of "Xunzi", which means that no matter how many twists and turns the river has, it will flow eastward into the sea, indicating the loyalty of North Korea to the Ming Dynasty, which is the same as the meaning of "Jianghan Dynasty".

Looking at those four words, five words came to Tang Haoran's mind.

"Great China Thought!"

When the five characters appeared, the corners of Tang Haoran's lips raised slightly at the moment he turned around, this is exactly what he wants to awaken, not just nationalism...... The composition of an empire can never be a people!

This empire will be formed according to the identity of civilization, just like ancient China, and what it dreams of is the revitalization of "East Asian civilization" with Chinese thought at its core.

If we want to restore China's former glory, it is not only about developing science and technology, but also about recovering the lost Chinese civilization, and is it possible for a completely Westernized, or even lost traditional civilization, to become the leader of East Asia? Is it possible to confront Western civilizations as the leader of East Asian civilizations?

Whether it is the utilitarian idea of compromising with tradition, or the lessons of later generations, they all tell Tang Haoran a fact - traditional civilization cannot be abandoned, if you give up your own civilization, even if China is really rich and powerful, it is just an extension of other people's culture, and it is meaningless for a nation, just as the nation with the largest number and the longest history in the world lacks a sense of national belonging in later generations. In addition to the two words on the ID card, student status, resume, etc., what else can remind them of their own nation, they even ridicule their own history, their own civilization, and pursue the so-called modernity, the so-called West, and that is precisely the tragedy of a nation - the demise of civilization, and the demise of civilization is the real demise, the civilization that was once strong in world history, the nation that has not fallen for thousands of years, has even become a myth in a certain way, and a nation has lost its cultural roots. Is it still a nation?

Calm in thought, Tang Haoran looked at Han Che and Li Han beside him, just the Hanfu on his body, so they cut off the braid on their head without hesitation, this kind of recognition of tradition and civilization in their blood and bones is engraved into their blood and bones, if they want to overthrow the Manchu Dynasty, they should drive this concept of civilization and nationality, and then make it useful, instead of singing about the revolution that no one can understand and no one can understand.

For the Chinese social elite and the common people of this era, they can understand the truth of expelling the Tatars and recovering China, but they cannot understand the revolution, and each era has its own limitations.

"Great China Thought!"

Thinking of this word, thinking of the endless potential behind this word, Tang Haoran thought of another person, another student of his own, and now, he should also be in Incheon soon!

(1: During the Ming and Qing dynasties, Lu Shen of China, a group of Ming Dynasty remnants went into exile, and they used the Yongli era name, which is a recognition of orthodoxy. Thinking about it today, hundreds of years of lonely loyalty like this, I am afraid it is also rare in the world. (To be continued......)
