Chapter 43: Momen

"The years are poor and twilight, and the festival is new. {Winter is over tonight, and the year is open. }

The ice dissipates the mirror water, and the plum spreads into the fragrance. For this happy feast, pour the pot and wait for the dawn. ”

In the latest issue of "Datang News", a special section was devoted to putting Li Er's ancient poem called "Except the Night" on the headlines, which was circulated in the market for a while.

Li Er's good mood in writing poetry did not appear in vain, because this year's expulsion conference has changed dramatically from previous years.

This year's exorcision conference in Chang'an is not only grander than in previous years, but this time there is an additional link for barbarians to worship the monarch of the Tang Kingdom, and Li Er's good mood is generated in the worship link

The area occupied by the Tang Dynasty now spans the entire Central Plains, from the Yinshan Desert in the north, to the Xisha Islands in the south, and to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in the west.

The pattern of the world has never changed so clearly, and the world map given by Li Ertong guò Xu Yang has re-divided the world map, and since then, the places occupied by the Tang people have exceeded a quarter of the land area of the earth.

However, it was only the occupation, and the population of the Tang Dynasty was still very scarce, and according to the latest rough census of the whole country, the population of the Tang Kingdom was only 3.3 million, which could not be compared with the hundreds of millions of later generations.

The scarcity of the population meant that it was impossible for the Tang people to migrate on a large scale, and even in the vast fertile land of Australia, Li Er only allowed 10,000 people to settle there. Compared to hundreds of thousands of indigenous people. The ratio of the Tang people is still too low and too low.

Since mass immigration is not possible. It is impossible to assimilate these barbarians for a period of time, and Xu Yang's assimilation policy will not work, so there is only one way: that is, let those barbarians exercise autonomy.

This is also similar to the ethnic autonomous regions of later generations, in which different ethnic groups administer by themselves, and finally are appointed by the central government and obey the orders of the central government.

Li Er was surprised when he heard Xu Yang say this, with his sharp political vision. This kind of autonomous rule is simply the way that the Tang Dynasty dreams of dominating foreign races.

The Ministry of Household Affairs was immediately instructed to draft a bill, which was then promulgated to administer the areas occupied by the Tang but not taken over by the Tang in the form of ethnic autonomous regions.

And the consequence of this bill is that the indigenous leaders in Laos, Myanmar, the Philippines, and Australia all have to send people to the Tang Dynasty for a worship ceremony.

Luckily, Niu Jinda, who had been in charge of overseas affairs, seemed to be prepared, and he had already arranged for many foreign people he encountered during his voyage to settle in Chang'an, and at the same time let them learn Tang culture, and then send them back in the future to educate their people. Familiar with the rites of saints, learn Confucius and Mencius.

This year's expulsion conference. These people reflect their value, all kinds of black-skinned, gray-eyed, brown-skinned and brown-eyed overseas barbarians at the court, wearing Tang costumes, kowtowing to Li Er, Li Er is also the first time to see so many strange-looking barbarians worshipping him, asking their tribes one by one, and rewarding them with gold and silver satin, and casting plaques created by the Tang Dynasty for them to worship, and at the same time announcing the legitimacy of their regime

Xu Yang didn't go to this year's expulsion conference, not because he didn't like to join in the fun, but for two reasons, one was that his wife was about to give birth, and the delivery period was almost these days, so he couldn't go out; Another reason is that he met someone.

As a descendant, Xu Yang really didn't expect that after thousands of years of changes, there would really be some ancient sect organizations that have been handed down.

The Mohist family is such an organization.

Han Yanxuan has not come out since the last time he drilled into the Qinling Mountains, this time he actually brought a large group of people, when he brought these people into the village, the guards guarding the village thought they were bandits, and almost fought with them, but in the end, fortunately, Liu Qi arrived and recognized Han Yanxuan, so there was no major friction.

When Xu Yang heard about it, he rushed to the conference hall in a hurry, and saw that the conference hall was full of people, and the clothes were relatively shabby, due to long-term cleaning, the clothes were a little whitish, depending on the age, they were not too big, twenty-five or sixteen years old, and the dress and hairstyle were very uniform.

On the main seat of the hall, there were two old men, one with a white beard fluttering, wearing a blue robe on a white background, Xu Yang knew him, a dignified Guiguzi, and his kung fu was unfathomable, but the other old man in a gray robe, Xu Yang didn't know him.

Bowing down and clasping his fists, Xu Yang said respectfully to the white-robed old man: "I don't know that the master is coming, and the disciple is not far away." ”

The white-robed old man seemed to be a little flattered, his face was very happy all of a sudden, and he said loudly: "You're welcome, the teacher came uninvited today, because it was not good to touch his friend's intentions, so he entered the village without permission, and he didn't blame him, and he was already very satisfied with the teacher, haha." ”

Xu Yang didn't understand what the old master was saying, so he had to look at Han Yanxuan standing behind Guiguzi as if asking for help, but that guy was like a piece of wood, the pestle was motionless, and his face was still undisturbed and cold for ten thousand years.

It was the gray-robed old man who was the first to speak, "I have heard the name of the disciple of Guiguwen for a long time, and the old man is polite." ”

"The old gentleman is polite, and he dares to ask, who is this old gentleman?" Xu Yang still hasn't figured out the situation.

The gray-robed old man seemed to say with a sense of arrogance: "The world is white, I am the only black, the Mo Men is not attacking, and I love all beings, the old man is the nineteenth generation of the Mo family: Chen Tianyun is also." ”

Xu Yang has seen many TV programs in later generations that recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, and he is a descendant of Cao Cao and a descendant of Cao Xueqin.

The history of mankind has a very strong coherence, and although the things that are passed down from mouth to mouth will gradually be distorted, they will still retain their essence, and Mohist is such an excellent organization that retains the essence.

Mohist originated in the Warring States Period. The founder is Mo Zhai, which is a very strict internal organization, each generation will designate a person as the next giant, all members of the organization are under the orders of the giant, among which the disciples are learning a variety of astronomical calendars, proficient in institutional academics, advocating both love, non-attack, ghosts and heavenly will

Xu Yang didn't know why such a mysterious organization would find him, but before he could speak, the gray-robed old man couldn't wait to ask, "The old man heard that Nanshan Academy has been researching the Vermilion Bird Mechanism recently?" This time it is precisely for this reason that I came."
