"Old Wei, what are you thinking? You are ignoring the country for your own selfishness! Jingwen said.

As soon as Jingwen came in, he directly began to criticize Wei Zheng, saying that he disregarded the country for his selfishness. This is obviously a very unceremonious attack on him, not saving face for Wei Zheng. Jingwen can obviously see that Wei Zheng is not pure nationalism, in fact, he is mixed with a lot of personal enmity. Because Jingwen knew that absolute nationalism did not exist in the Tang Dynasty, even those nationalists in later generations, few of them would be determined to kill all foreign races. And Wei Zheng wanted to kill all the foreigners as soon as he opened his mouth, obviously his psychology was unhealthy, and he must have been stimulated by something, so he hated the foreigners so much. It can be said that Wei Zheng is actually a private hate, not a nationalist.

And if we want to say that the so-called nationalists in ancient times, even the so-called nationalists in the Wuhu Rebellion, in fact, those were not pure nationalists, they were because of the massacre of foreign races, which caused their hatred of foreign races. Personal hatred cannot be compared with true nationalism. Nationalism is nationalism, and personal hatred belongs to personal hatred, but many people also confuse them. Nationalism, on the other hand, advocates national progress, rather than relying on killing foreigners to relieve anger. As for those who want to kill foreigners to relieve their anger, it is only because of the so-called national hatred.

Therefore, Wei Zheng's so-called desire to slaughter foreigners is not real nationalism, but he should not know that he was stimulated by the foreigners at that time, so he hated the foreigners so much, and even wanted to kill all the foreigners. But Jingwen wouldn't agree, if he didn't like foreigners, he didn't have to slaughter foreigners, after all, truly civilized people wouldn't slaughter. The so-called massacres are the acts of barbarians. This has been recognized in later generations. Of course, civilized people also have massacres, but their methods are more sophisticated. They don't slaughter outright. They will only use the continuous squeezing of the living space of other peoples to carry out slow extermination, and will definitely not rely on bloody means to slaughter. This Wei Zheng obviously also has his savage side. Because of personal hatred, it was implicated in other foreign races.

"How can I ignore the court of the country for the sake of myself? You make it clear to me! If it is not my race, its heart will be different, this is the saying of the ancestors back then. I refuse to allow foreigners to enter my Tang Dynasty court to serve, this is for the emperor's safety, and also to prevent the secrets of my Tang Center from being leaked, how can it be for selfishness? Wei Zheng rebuked angrily.

Jingwen said very unceremoniously: "Old Wei, I can see that you are not for the so-called public heart. On the contrary, once you face a foreigner, you change. You lose your cool and become very furious. This is not a quality that a civilized person should have. Lao Wei, what did you experience back then? How can you hate the Turks so much that you even implicate other foreigners? ”

And Jingwen suddenly saw Wei Zheng's face turn dark, obviously thinking of something. Jingwen knew that maybe Wei Zheng really didn't know when and what he had experienced, which made him have a bitter hatred for foreign clans, or rather, he was frightened. That's why he hates foreigners so much. And the foreign race is definitely an eternal scar in his heart, and this may have been buried in his heart all along. And everyone didn't know why they didn't want to be a minister, but Jingwen thought that he had to explain him.

Because Wei Zheng is now also an important minister of the imperial court. If he has always harbored this kind of hatred for foreign races, An will be very inconvenient for Datang in the future. In the future, the Tang Dynasty will definitely gradually carry out exchanges between the East and the West, and even more and more exchanges with foreign countries, if Wei Zheng, a person who has a bitter hatred for foreign races, continues to serve as the prime minister, then I am afraid the consequences will be chilling. At that time, Wei Zheng is afraid that he will try his best to restrict those foreigners, and even lose his fair attitude in dealing with foreigners.

If the prime minister of a country loses his mind about something, it is very fatal to the country. Originally, as the emperor and prime minister, it must be fair, if it cannot be impartial. Judging from the power they hold, it is definitely the dangerous hài of those vulnerable groups who have to be strictly punished.

Although later generations of Westerners have invaded China for a long time. But Jingwen didn't think that now Datang was going to take revenge on them. Let's not talk about whether Datang has the means to go on an expedition thousands of miles away, let's just say that the current officials and people of Datang will not support an expedition thousands of miles away. There is no bitter hatred between them. There is also no hatred of Westerners that the people of later generations have. On the contrary, now Westerners will still rely on Datang, and their businessmen have always been kind to people when they come to Datang, and they will never offend people lightly. Their current state, in fact, that is, the Chinese of later generations going to the West, are full of humility, and absolutely do not dare to be as arrogant in China as they were in the nineteenth century. Therefore, the impression of Westerners is still very good.

But if there is any conflict in the future, then Wei Zheng's personal mistake of hating foreigners will be committed again, and it will be easy to harm foreigners with his rights. At that time, it will be very harmful to the country's external image. If those foreigners go back to the West, and they all think that China is a place of discrimination against foreigners, it will be very scary. In the original history, the Tang Dynasty was actually able to be strong and famous all over the world, because the Tang Dynasty did not discriminate against people from any nation and state, and treated them equally. In this way, Westerners from afar and thousands of miles away can also recognize Datang. If China can't treat foreigners equally, it will be very hindering to the country's image and the spread of Datang's culture to the world.

Therefore, Jingwen must explain Wei Zheng to avoid him formulating discriminatory policies against foreigners in the future, which is also very bad for the opening up of Datang to the outside world in the future. Wei Zheng has the right to refute, and if he doesn't agree with the policy, it will be really difficult to implement.

"Old Wei, if you have any grievances, just say it! If you don't say it, you're bound to be even more uncomfortable! Say it, it's easy to do, the emperor and I are next to me, it's best if you say it. People won't look down on you, and everyone will comfort you when you say it! Jingwen said. (To be continued)
