"Excuse me, my lord, is the Qing Kingdom China?"

A rhetorical question sounded in the Huayang Cave Academy, and the reader who came out of the academy, the old man in a plain Confucian robe and a Confucian crown stared solemnly at the adult in civilian clothes in front of him.

Is the Qing Kingdom China?

This question is full of traps, and in the face of this question, Tang Haoran was silent at first, and then looked towards the Wandong Temple in the distance.

"The person who came today is not the commander in Korea, but the Tang Haoran of China!"

Yes, it is Tang Haoran, a Chinese, who is here today, perhaps for Tang Haoran, the post of superintendent appointed by the Qing court in Korea allowed him to enjoy the reality of the emperor in Korea, but for him personally, he never dared to forget that he was Chinese, and as a Chinese, it was his natural mission to overthrow the rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

Liu Chongjiao stared at Tang Haoran blankly, not understanding what his words meant. Although he asked the question, he did not expect that he would get such an answer.

If it was in the past, maybe he would not have seen this "Master Tongjian" in the academy at all, watching his deeds and listening to his words, but he had to see that although he abolished the king of China, although he was rudely interfering in the national affairs of North Korea, he did not have the slightest good impression of the renegade of China, and he also overhauled the "Cheng'en Temple" in various parts of Korea, which also made Liu Chongjiao believe that the "Lord Tongjian" in front of him was different from other Qing ministers.

It is even because of this that he will see him in the college, instead of saying that he is ill.

The dignity of a scholar is also a scholar, for Liu Chongjiao, who has never entered the office, he will never kneel down in front of him because he is a "master of the general prison", the kind of behavior that is not ashamed of seeing a clear person. He couldn't. Just as he can't forget the room. And the reason why he spit out this question that seems to be a big reversal in the eyes of the Qing people. It was exactly the way he went back to Wandong Temple.

After being silent for a while, Tang Haoran looked at the Wandong Temple in the distance and explained:

"Since the sinking of Shenzhou in Jiashennian, China's land was occupied by the Manchu Qing more than 246 years ago, and these foreign invaders have turned the Chinese into slaves, ruining our civilization and enslaving my compatriots.

The reason why he said this is simple, except that there are only the two of them here. The emotions that have been suppressed in my heart for many days have been ignited today, to be precise, by the things that can be seen everywhere in Huayang Cave Academy, and these words are not so much contrived as they are from the bottom of my heart.

Ignoring Liu Chongjiao's surprise, Tang Haoran pointed his hand towards the rice field outside the academy and asked rhetorically.

"Sir, why don't you tell me what this rice is called?"

After asking rhetorically, Tang Haoran said with a solemn expression.

"This is Daming rice, when you enter this academy, everything you see is "Daming"! ”

The sound of reading aloud outside the window sounded in the college. Tang Haoran, who was in the academy, looked at the scenery in the academy, as if he was touching the scene.

"Yesterday planted Daming plum, today planted Daming bamboo. Jianggan spring rain break, when planting chrysanthemum. The master Xinbu opened three paths, and he was the same as the Ming clan. Mr. Kim Jae-lim did a great job in this poem! ”

At this time, being in this holy land of North Korean Confucianism and feeling the strong atmosphere of Chongzhou Siming here, Tang Haoran's heart was always touched and touched by history. The poem he read was written by Kim Pyongmo, a master of Korean science and science who was the successor of the West China School, and if it weren't for Kim Pyongmo's serious illness and recuperation at home, the person he sees in this Hwayangdong Academy today would be Kim Pyongmo, not Yoo Chongjiao.

And there is only one of the Siming poems inscribed in this Huayang Cave Academy, just like everything near the academy is "Daming", if not, Tang Haoran would not have a sense of sadness.

The same Daming clan as the son!

A dynasty that has been extinct for more than 200 years and is "despotic and dark, and the emperor is mediocre" among many unscrupulous descendants in later generations is so admired in the foreign land of Haidong......

Tang Haoran didn't know what the future would be, but he knew that no matter what, the idea of "being the same Ming clan as his son" was exactly what he needed, what he needed was to destroy the "national thought" that had just sprouted in North Korea, and the "Chinese thought" he needed, but as for the so-called "North Korea and China on behalf of China", it would be a laugh, at most, what he admitted was that North Korea was a part of China.

"Adult ......"

Looking at Tang Haoran in surprise, Liu Chongjiao's heart was excited, although he had the illusion of "North Korea entering the Central Plains", but he believed that there was no saint in North Korea, and he could not produce the Son of Heaven, and Yu Huaxi School respected China after all for the eternal righteousness, in the past he advocated the Northern Expedition, not so much "entering the Central Plains", but rather in the face of the Korean monarchs and ministers "summer clothes and hearts" worried, hoping to use the ambition of "entering the Central Plains" to awaken the "summer heart" of the Korean monarchs and ministers, and even if it is himself, I don't believe that North Korea will one day be able to "enter the Central Plains", after all, according to the course of science, North Korea has no thousands of miles of rivers and rivers, and it is impossible to produce saints, and if saints do not come out, how can we talk about entering China.

Looking at the stone tablet in the academy engraved with Siming's words, thinking of the suffering suffered by the nation and the reality of the decline of civilization in the hundreds of years since the Jiashen Dynasty, Tang Haoran's eyes couldn't help but be slightly red, his fists were clenched from time to time, and the anger in his chest completely turned into dissatisfaction with the Manchus at this time, which was natural and did not need any reason.

"But all the Chinese, who think of Yashan Jiashen and are not compassionate, will be disloyal. The Manchu Qing Dynasty made more than 200 people, foolish people here, Haoran every time he thinks about it, all heartache is extreme, and the land of Korea, still preserves my Chinese rituals, today I belong to the reason of North Korea, although I am a Qing minister, but what I do, it is the great cause of China, which is intended to repeat the Chinese rituals, Mr. Shengzhai ......"

Staring at Liu Chongjiao, the spiritual leader of the West China School, Tang Haoran neither concealed his thoughts, nor did he come out in full, just a little mention, in Liu Chongjiao's surprise, Tang Haoran asked in a hurry.

"Is Mr. Shengzhai Chinese or Korean?"

This rhetorical question is just like Liu Chongjiao's original question, but compared to it, Tang Haoran's question is undoubtedly more heart-wrenching, and there is only one choice, and no matter which one, it means betrayal in some kind of process.

Faced with Tang Haoran's question, Liu Chongjiao lowered his head slightly and was silent, how to answer this question? Culturally, of course, Liu Chongjiao identified himself as Chinese, but reason told him that he was a Korean, and just when Liu Chongjiao was silent and unable to answer for a while, a voice sounded on the side.

"I'm Chinese!"

Following the words, Tang Haoran saw a middle-aged elder who had to pass his chest come over, his expression was serious, and his solemn face was full of excitement.

"I've seen my uncle, I've seen Tang Jun!"

Liu Linxi, who had listened to the conversation between the two before, said to Liu Chongjiao and Tang Haoran after saluting, and said to Liu Chongjiao, who was also his uncle.

"Uncle, I'm waiting for myself to be Chinese, why can't I say it!"

Compared with Liu Chongjiao's caution, Liu Linxi, who is nearly fifty years old, mentioned that he was Chinese, his face was full of pride and pride, and there was no trace of pretentiousness, and he saluted Tang Haoran again.

"Tang Jun, although North Korea is a foreign domain of China, but with the same language and sect with China, since the people of China, although away from the education of China, and then since the Ming Dynasty, North Korea as a minister of the Ming Dynasty, Ming Zhizhi, more educated by China, since the Chinese, although the Ming Dynasty has perished for a long time, and Hongwu, Wanli, Chongzhen's spiritual position is still enshrined in the Wandong Temple, the Manchu Tartars are not worthy of the emperor, and the Korean Dongyi should not be the emperor, and can only respectfully serve the undead in the Wandong Temple as the lord of the world. If China produces a saint and regains China by the Tartars, Korea will be willing to be the eastern vassal of China, and serve China with the loyalty of the Mingming! ”

Facing Tang Haoran's gaze, Liu Linxi's eyes did not show a trace of retreat, from the Tang Lord in front of him to abolish the king, the commander of North Korea, he has paid attention to the unification of the palace's every move, whether it is the establishment of the East Asia Tongwen Academy, or the Daxing "Cheng'en Temple" In his opinion, it is his steps to strengthen China's rule in Korea, not only has he never criticized Tang Haoran for interfering in the internal affairs of North Korea, but believes that North Korea needs people like Tang Haoran who dare to act, so as to ensure that North Korea is not disturbed by foreign countries, and even in his opinion, Tang Haoran may be the saint that China has been waiting for for hundreds of years, at least there is a possibility.

Eastern Domain, I want the Eastern Province!

Listening to Liu Linxi's words, Tang Haoran muttered to himself in his heart, but he knew that whether it was Liu Linxi or Liu Chongjiao, these Korean Confucian students who "admired Zhou Siming" may be the real pro-China Confucian students, and even the emphasis on Confucianism and China is far greater than the rise and fall of North Korea itself, and on the other hand, the ministers in the Korean court, what they pursue is just the respect of strength, in history, Kim Yun-sik and other "ministers of great things" are all falling to Japan.

The Power of Faith!

Faith is undoubtedly evident in people such as Yoo In-seok, who believe not in North Korea, but in China, and in recognition of Chinese culture, which is exactly what they need, and what they need is a North Korea that identifies with China, not a North Korea that has awakened its own nation.

Of course, this is only a preliminary idea, at least for now, Tang Haoran has not yet thought of implementing a new policy in North Korea, but this does not prevent him from supporting the lectures of the West China School with an official attitude, and then further expand the influence of the West China School in North Korea, and realize the "further sinicization" of the whole of North Korea through the "sinicization" of Confucianism in Korea, so as to annex Korea in the future. Namibia lays the foundation for a Chinese province.

"North Korea's loyalty to China, can Tang not know?"

Tang Haoran, who knew why Liu Linxi called himself "Tang Jun", did not care about anything in terms of title, but continued.

"At present, North Korea has been open for more than ten years, the east is in the door, the foreign is in the border, and the North Korea has the heart of excluding China and respecting the foreign, although it can be guarded behind closed doors, but today's world, how can it be a world that guards behind closed doors? Ru Sheng, please teach me how to eliminate this heart of Huazunyang! (To be continued......)
