Chapter 69: The Ancient and Modern Dao Crown

The cold of the autumn night is getting heavier day by day, and the streets outside the Changsha Xue Palace in the southwest corner of Changsha City to the main street of Gongmen are temporary shacks for refugees, and a few simple bamboo poles and wooden sticks support a piece of shabby straw mat or homespun cloth, which can be used as a shelter for shelter from the wind and rain. Along the way, the people fleeing the war on both sides lit bonfires under their shacks, and on the fire were old pots and pots, in which rice grains issued by the Taiping army were cooked, and the aroma of grain and rice was strong all the way.

Hong Yuner took Li Xuanji, Yang Dongqing and other female soldiers until they walked to the side door of the school palace, looked up by the afterglow of the people's bonfire, and saw a stone carved archway standing tall here, on which the big book "Daoguan ancient and modern" four big characters, the archway should be built in the early Ming Dynasty, with an obvious style of the times. The building is a wooden structure, three rooms, four pillars and five floors, yellow glazed tiles, Ruyi dougong, thirteen steps in the bright room, nine steps in the middle, and five steps on the small roof in the middle. Each of the workshops is decorated with eight stone monsters. The four Tianlu in the center are cloaked in a tail with long necks and sharp claws; The four on both sides of the evil spirits, angry eyes twist their necks, and the image is weird. Under the light of the fire, the stone beasts were hideous, as if they were glaring at the cowardly and desolate refugee people in front of them.

"This is the Temple of Literature in Changsha." Hong Yun'er sighed lightly, and whispered to herself: "The Dao crown is ancient and modern, and the sage's proposition is the most haode in ancient and modern times, but it's a pity that today's Dao has changed." She had also been to Changsha before, but the Xiwen Temple no longer existed, and at this moment she was actually immersed, only feeling that she was in a dream. The ancient Confucian Temple is a place to worship Confucius, since the Tang Dynasty, the Confucian Temple and the official school combined, the system of "left temple and right learning", so the common people are used to call the school palace the Confucian Temple.

Li Xuanji hummed softly beside him and said: "What Xi Wang Niang said is that this is the Changsha official school and the Confucian Temple, my eldest brother studied here in the past, this is the Changsha School Palace, which was built in the Song Dynasty, during which it was destroyed by the war several times, and in the fourth year of Shunzhi, the prefect Zhang Hongyou repaired the main hall and the house, rebuilt the Chongsheng Temple, Jingyi Pavilion, and built the cypress tree on the east and west walls, and began to restore the old view. From Kangxi to Daoguang, Hunan governors Zhao Shenqiao, Chen Hongmou, Wu Rongguang and others expanded the school palace many times before they had today's view. ”

Hong Yun'er looked sideways at Li Xuanji, at this moment she had wrapped her head in a red scarf, but she was still wearing a blue cloth shirt and lace lantern embroidered pants, but the clothes were a little damaged, but she couldn't hide her delicate appearance at all. ”

Li Xuanji bowed slightly and said: "The little sister's family was originally solid, and she also lived in Changsha City, which was regarded as a scholarly family, and then her family fell into the middle of the road, so she had to go back to her hometown in Liuyang to live." ”

Hong Yun'er said suddenly: "It turns out that you were born in a scholarly family, no wonder you are very knowledgeable and know a lot." ”

Yang Dongqing interjected: "Sister Xuanji is the first literate in our village, and several old gentlemen in the village can't compare to her." ”

Li Xuanjiqiao's face flushed slightly and said: "Holly, don't talk nonsense, Xiwang Niang is a talented woman, don't get an axe." ”

Hong Yun'er smiled and said: "Wen Wu is the first and Wu is the second, Xuanji sister's family history must be unique, and there is no need to be too humble, not to mention that there must be my teacher in the threesome, maybe one day I will also ask you for advice from Holly." ”

Yang Dongqing's eyes widened and he said strangely: "Ask me a country woman for advice?" Xi Wang Niang, don't scold me. ”

Hong Yun'er and Li Xuanji looked at each other and smiled, and while they were talking, they saw two of the West King's personal guard swordsmen hurrying over and said: "Xi Wangniang, the West King has returned to the house, please go back to the house to speak." ”

Hong Yun'er was still a little annoyed with Xiao Yungui, and secretly scolded a few words in her heart, but she still nodded and said, "You go back first, and I'll go back to the house." ”…,

After the two swordsmen went, Hong Yun'er said to Li Xuanji and Yang Dongqing: "You two go back to the house with me, I have a few people to talk to in the house." She really likes a lovely person like Li Xuanji, and she is quite knowledgeable, so she can be used as a confidant. The second daughter did not doubt him, so she followed Hong Yun'er back home.

When he returned to the mansion, he saw Xiao Yungui and Zuo Zongtang eating in the hall, Xiao Yungui seemed to be hungry, and he shaved rice into his mouth with a big bowl, but Zuo Zongtang took a good time to raise a small wine glass and drink slowly.

Seeing Hong Yun'er and other women coming, Zuo Zongtang only said that she was Xiao Yungui's daughter, and hurriedly got up and saluted.

Hong Yun'er returned the salute slightly: "Mr. Zuo is not polite, please sit down and use it slowly, let's go back to the house to freshen up first." ”

Xiao Yungui burped and said, "Have you eaten?" ”

Hong Yun'er glanced at him, and secretly said in her heart, her speech was still so vulgar, and when she saw that there were outsiders, she still endured it and replied softly: "We have used it in the women's camp, Xiwang, you can accompany Mr. Zuo." ”

Xiao Yungui snorted, very satisfied with Hong Yun'er's humility and courtesy, and said loudly: "Come out after freshening up, Mr. Zuo has something to ask." ”

Hong Yun'er hated it so much, but she didn't want her ladylike image to be ruined, so she had to hum softly, turned her head and took Li Xuanji and Yang Dongqing back to her house. After only a few steps, Zuo Zongtang and Xiao Yungui's comments came from his ears, "Xiwang Niang shows off her wisdom, and Xiwang is really a blessing." "Haha, a country woman who doesn't know much, see laughter, see laughter."

Hong Yun'er returned to the house angrily, and scolded Xiao Yungui from the inside out in her heart. Li Xuanji and Yang Dongqing took the soup, and seeing that Hong Yun'er's face was full of anger, Li Xuanji asked in a low voice, "Why is the Queen of the West unhappy?" Didn't Mr. Zuo praise you? ”

Yang Dongqing interjected: "I know, the West Wang Niang is angry, and the West Wang Niang said that the West Wang Niang is a country woman." ”

Li Xuanji hurriedly reprimanded: "Don't talk nonsense Holly, the prince of the West is humble." ”

Hong Yun'er snorted and said: "That's what he thinks, it's just hurting me, you two also freshen up, I want to see what they have to say later." After that, she freshened up, but her face was still stinky, and she couldn't stop muttering curses.

After freshening up, Hong Yuner only felt a lot refreshed, and then found that the wound on her leg was faintly painful, so she had to roll up her trousers to take a look, but she saw that the wound was a little open, thinking that the injury had recurred after walking too much today, so she took out the gold sore medicine and applied it to her and wrapped it in gauze again.

Li Xuanji looked at the wound and was slightly surprised: "Xi Wang Niang, are you injured?" ”

Hong Yun'er raised her head and smiled slightly: "It's okay, it's a Qing Demon spear, it's just a skin injury, let's go out." ”

The three girls returned to the hall, Xiao Yungui and Zuo Zongtang had finished eating, the food had been collected, the two were serving tea in the hall, and when they saw the three girls coming, Xiao Yungui stood up with a smile and greeted them.

At this time, Li Xuanji and Yang Dongqing also freshened up, and they looked even more beautiful, Xiao Yungui approached and looked slightly stunned, and the lights were dim and he didn't see the appearance of the second daughter clearly, at this time, Xiao Yungui couldn't help but be stunned, the three beauties were in front of him, each with its own goodness.

Li Xuanji suddenly saw the rough-looking King Xi staring at him, and he was a little panicked in his heart, and hurriedly lowered his head. Hong Yun'er also noticed that something was wrong, and when she saw his confused appearance, she was even more angry in her heart, and coughed heavily: "King Xi, I don't know what Mr. Zuo has to ask?" ”

Xiao Yungui came back to his senses at this time, coughed lightly, and said with a dry smile: "It's not a big deal, it's just that this king recruited Mr. Zuo, but Mr. Zuo said that we believe in foreign religion, which is different from Chinese literature, so please come and solve your doubts." ”…,

Hong Yun'er sneered in her heart, this bastard who doesn't learn and has no skills really has something to ask for herself, she wanted to leave with her sleeves up, but thinking of Zuo Zongtang's talent, if she can recruit him, it will be a great thing, and she bypassed Xiao Yungui and walked in front of Zuo Zongtang and said with a slight salute: "Mr. Zuo, since that's the case, let's sit down and talk slowly." After that, he invited Zuo Zongtang to sit down and talk.

Xiao Yungui laughed a few times, returned to his seat and sat down, only to hear Hong Yun'er say: "My God worships God, and there is also a saying of God in the teachings of foreigners. ”

Zuo Zongtang muttered: "God is the most venerable one of heaven, and he uttered the "Shangshu Summoning": Emperor God changed the life of Yuan Zizi Da Yin. The respect of man is nothing more than the emperor, and he is entrusted to the sky, so he is called God. ”

Hong Yun'er nodded and said: "Yes, in the past, Taishi Gong's "Five Emperors Benji" also included: Shun Nai was in Xuanji Yuheng, and Qi Qizheng was in Qi. Then it is like God, in the six sects, looking at the mountains and rivers, and arguing in the gods. Yi Wurui, choose the auspicious month and day, see the four Yue Zhumu, Ban Rui. There is a saying of God in Confucian teachings, and there is also a saying in Taoism: Taishang Kaitian Zhifu Imperial Calendar contains the true body of Dao Haotian Jade Emperor God. In fact, God has already been visited by our ancestors, and it is not unique to the teachings of foreigners. And my Heavenly King also said as early as in the "Yuan Dao Jue World Training": After examining the annals of Chinese history, from Pangu to three generations, the monarch and the people are one, and they all worship the emperor God. The God we worship is of the same origin as the ancient Chinese God, so how can it be said that it is different from the Chinese language? ”

Xiao Yungui was overjoyed, patted his thigh and said, "I remember that the King of Heaven seems to have said that our God is believed by our ancestors, Yun ...... Xuanjiao is right, our God has existed since ancient times, and it is not unique to foreigners. ”

Zuo Zongtang frowned and said: "Although the name of God is the same, but I also have God in Confucianism, why did your army come along the way, and the Confucian Temple of Literature was all destroyed?" ”

Xiao Yungui sighed, Hong Yun'er took a sip of tea, and said with a leisurely smile: "After Confucius established his own school, the God respected by Confucianism is respected by people, no more than the emperor, and he is entrusted to the sky, so he is called God." Confucianism has more: the people descended from heaven, the king, the teacher, but it is said that it helps God and favors the Quartet. These were originally all faulty, but by the time Qin Zheng came out, he opened the level of immortal and strange things, and pretended to be the emperor from this moment, and the Confucian God has changed its taste. ”

Zuo Zongtang was surprised: "Why did the West Wang Niang say this? ”

Hong Yun'er stood up and said slowly: "The three emperors and five emperors in ancient times are so virtuous, they are worthy of the two words emperor and emperor, although Qin Yingzheng has the merit of sweeping Liuhe, but he thinks that he is both virtuous and three emperors, and he is the fifth emperor, and he has set a precedent by adding the emperor's name." The emperor is the top, the emperor is the bottom, the emperor of Qin Yingzheng means heaven and earth, that is, to tell all the people, heaven and earth are the lord of all things. When Confucius preached, he also did not hear that the emperor could replace heaven and earth to become the lord of all things, and the original God of heaven and earth could be worshiped by all the people, because after Qin Yingzheng became the emperor, he burned books and pit Confucianism, and the emperor God became the exclusive god of worship in heaven, and all the people in the world had no right to worship, and the old custom of worshiping God was annihilated over time. ”

Zuo Zongtang was stunned and speechless, and Hong Yun'er said again: "Qin Yingzheng has the merit of sweeping Liuhe, allowing me to unify China, which is also considered a great achievement, and all subsequent dynasties have followed suit, but they are also my Han emperors, and in the Yuan Dynasty, the Mongolian people called themselves emperors in vain, and the world rose up to fight, and let my Han people reorganize the country." But now, our Han people are occupied by Manchurians, how can they dare to call the emperor in vain and steal the name of the god of heaven and earth? My God's religion is just to restore the ancient ways and let all the people worship God again, so why not? As for why the Confucian temples in various places are destroyed, just because today's Confucianism is no longer the original Confucianism, after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, how many elite Confucian students were killed in the late Ming Dynasty, and the mosquito prison was greatly revitalized, and the Confucian essence was suppressed and castrated, and how many are left now? Today's Confucianism does not do the work of recovering the Han Dynasty, but is loyal and filial piety, benevolence and righteousness to Hu Nu and subjugation and subordination, what else do we have to do with such Confucianism? It's better to destroy them all and regain the ancient relics! ”
