Not only is China's social and cultural thinking changing, but Japan and North Korea are also underway.

North Korea has not been able to close itself off from the rest of the country, and the smuggling trade is engaged in along the coast of Japan, and Chinese books will inevitably spread to the past.

Hanyang (Seoul, North Korea).

A group of Chinese people gathered in the secret room, silent and excited, as if they were collectively waiting for something.

The so-called middle people are the children born to scholars and concubines. They were restricted from the imperial examinations, and although they could be military attachés, they could only be middle and low-level military attachés. This is a huge group, the nobles give birth to a large number of concubines every year, and the concubines are born every year, but they are always middle-aged people who cannot be admitted to the university.

They are not high or low, and they have a wealth and status superior to that of a good person, but a good person can still pass the imperial examination and have a slim chance of becoming a nobleman. And these middle-aged people, no matter how good and hard-working they are, will become middle-level military attachés at most in their lifetime.

There were changes in the imperial examination to North Korea, one was a large branch (could be a civil official), the second was a small branch (a student jinshi), the third was a martial department, and the fourth was a miscellaneous department (technical officials).

The aristocratic class, firmly controlling the big branch and the martial department, and at the same time setting restrictions on the small department, and then completely despise the miscellaneous officials.

In order to monopolize power, the aristocracy held special examinations from time to time, that is, Enke on the Chinese side. When there is a conscience, a month's notice is issued; When I was frustrated, I only issued a notice four or five days in advance. By the time the ordinary scholars learned that Enko was going to be held, the exams had already ended.

Even if they are good people and village officials, if they want to take the student exam, they have to ask two classes of nobles to be guarantors, otherwise they are not even qualified to take the student exam.

Now, the DPRK is carrying out tax reform again, and the whole thing is such a thing.

The aristocracy and gentry class have fierce contradictions with the royal family. The aristocracy was cut off from the beloved (commoner) class, the middle was attached to the nobility and dissatisfied, and the middle was completely cut off from the good man.

Under the three classes of nobles, middle-aged people, and good people, there is also a pariah class.

Even the children born to nobles and lowly concubines are still untouchables, and they are not allowed to call their fathers "father", but only "adults". (Male untouchables, if they come from a good family, can take the military attache and technical officer exams, and after passing the exam, they will be promoted to the middle class.) ）

"Babble!"

The old door opened, making a tooth-aching sound.

A middle-aged young man named Liu Shunqing came in like a thief, hurriedly closed the door, and took out a stack of books from his arms.

Everyone in the room hurriedly turned on the lamps and sat down around the table.

Liu Shunqing put the books on the table and said with a smile: "The Celestial Maritime Merchants arrived in Hong Kong yesterday, and I quietly bought these books this morning. There are a total of six issues of "Datong Monthly", as well as several issues of "Journal of History", "Journal of Ancient Characters", "Journal of Physics", and "Acta Mathematica Sinica...... The most difficult thing to do is this, hehe, "Qianchu Anthology". ”

Chen is true, the word is dry.

Chen Qu proposed that the study of knowledge and the help of the people through the world should be the integration of the four aspects of qi, reason, and mind. This is a heretical theory in North Korea, and the dispute over qi and reason in North Korea has already been beaten out of the dog's brain, how can it accept the integration of the four in qi, reason, and mind.

After Chen was promoted to the crown prince's master, someone spread his theory to Korea, which instantly caused a huge repercussion, and the king of Joseon soon banned the dissemination.

This set of theories is not only to add the word "heart" after "qi theory", but also to involve the great emancipation of the mind of Song and Ming Dynasty science. It is a moving and changing scientific thought, and it is also a secularized and scientific scientific thought, emphasizing that reason follows the pneumatic and qi is constantly running, which provides the ideological basis for Zhao Han's theory of personality and the scientific research of the Qintian Academy.

The children of the people in the house were not in the mood to read all kinds of newspapers and magazines, so they only asked Liu Shunqing to recite the contents of the "Qianchu Anthology".

Liu Shunqing quickly turned to the core theoretical chapter: "The qi is the foundation of things." The rational person is also the law of things. The heart is also the body of knowledge. Sexuality, knowledge is also useful. The four are one, and the way of heaven is self-evident......"

Liu Shunqing seemed to be afraid that the wall had ears, and his voice was very soft when he read the article. At the same time, the speed is also very slow, because other young people are writing and copying.

After reading the general outline, it is time to elaborate.

Tai Chi gives birth to yin and yang, and derives all things in the world. Qi is the material foundation, reason is the rule of ethics, the heart is the conscience and perception, and sex is the pursuit of desire. To know the heart, to take sex as the driving force, to take the qi as the foundation, to take reason as the criterion, to understand the world, to understand the world, to transform the world, the four must be harmonious and unified, in order to become a true gentleman.

In more detail, there is also an explanation of Zhao Han's theory of position, as well as a deconstruction of traditional Confucianism and today's scientific research.

The article was not long, Liu Shunqing read it several times, and all the young people copied the content.

A young man named Jin Zhengshun put down his pen and sighed: "Chen Gong is worthy of being the prince of the Celestial Empire, and he is really a great Confucian." ”

The young people began to discuss:

"Chen Gong's theory is in line with the theory of the Son of Heaven. It is not easy for this heaven and earth to be rational for eternity, but the qi of heaven and earth is changing in motion. That is, the way of heaven is eternal, humanity is replaced, and we are not inferior to the two classes of nobles. We can also be nobles! ”

"Great goodness! The nobles and the middle, although the positions are different, but the character is the same. Today's aristocrats, corpses and vegetarian meals, are all wine bags and rice bags. In terms of personality and moral ability, the aristocracy is far inferior to the middle. What does this mean? The aristocratic character is not worthy of the position! ”

"The aristocracy is not worthy of the position, and my great Korean talent is not in harmony with his temperament. If the four are not in harmony, it will be difficult to show the way of heaven, and only then can Japan and Houjin ravage the people. Now that the law has been changed, although the treasury is abundant, there are countless people such as me, and there are countless good people, none of them have risen to the next level, and the poor people in the country are even more hungry. ”

"However, this matter should be easy. And those who change customs, who is me? ”

"How do you change the world?"

"Soldiers!"

"No, you can't. Among the people of my generation, the highest official position is only a mere general. The commanders who lead the troops in the country are all the king's henchmen, and they are all two classes of magnates. How can a military admonition be accomplished? ”

"The Heavenly Pilgrimage King has a saying, and the people are the foundation of the country. What is the cornerstone of the Korean state? The people of my generation are the cornerstone, but the millions of good people are not the cornerstone? When befriending good people, especially local students and village officials, they have not advanced to the ranks. ”

"Yes, yes, yes, these great truths should be passed on to the students and villagers."

“……”

A group of young people discussed repeatedly, and the door was suddenly pushed open, and the young man outside the door panted and said, "Your Majesty...... The king...... Crashed! ”

The young people looked at each other, and then Liu Shunqing was overjoyed: "What a godsend!" When the king dies, there will be a resurgence of party strife, and no one will pay attention to our preaching. We can divide into five groups and copy a large number of "Qianchu Anthologies" and disseminate them to the southeast, northwest, and northwest. I stayed in Hanyang and preached in Gyeonggi! ”

Another young man said: "At a critical time, you can contact the Datong Army in Baozhou." Dedicate Baozhou and North Hamgyong Province to the Celestial Empire in exchange for the support of the Daedong Army, and when the time comes, you will be able to set things right and create a Korean state of great harmony for all people! By that time, the Chinese will also be able to be nobles! ”

"Yes, Baozhou has been taken by the Celestial Empire, and it will definitely not be able to get it back. There are many mountains in North Hamgyong Province, the food is tasteless, and it is not a pity to abandon it, and it is very cost-effective to dedicate it to the Celestial Empire in exchange for support! The rest of the youth were in favor of the move.

North Korea Province, which is next to the Tumen River, was originally called Gyeongseong Metropolitan Protectorate, and you will know what the situation is when you hear the name - you will not feel distressed if you cede it.

This group of young people has gone crazy, their children and grandchildren, unable to become aristocrats, in order to achieve a class breakthrough, they even want to cede land in exchange for Chinese support.

And above the court of North Korea, a big ritual discussion is brewing, which is known as the "Jihai Rite Lawsuit" in history.

To put it bluntly, it's party strife!

Decades ago, two North Korean ministers came to work, one to the east of Hanyang and the other to the west of Hanyang. The forces headed by them are known as the Easterners and Westerners.

Initially, the Easterners were in power and the Westerners were sidelined.

After the East People's Party gained power, it fought internally, and the moderate faction and the hardliners were opposed, that is, the so-called Southern People's Party and the Northerners' Party. After the repulsion of Japan, the North People's Party came to power, and there was another split, namely the Great Northern Party and the Small Northern Party. The Great Northern Party gained power and split again into the Bone North Party and the Meat North Party.

During the post-Jin invasion, the Westerners regained power and quickly split into the Xunxi Party, the Qingxi Party, the Mountain Party, and the Han Party.

At this time, the king of Joseon died, and the Namjin party tried to fight back and fought around the new king.

The old king is the second son, but his biological mother belongs to the step-concubine.

The old king is dead, and the new king succeeds to the throne, how should the queen mother mourn the old king?

Song Shilie of the Westerner Party took the lead in speaking: ""Etiquette and Mourning Clothes" has clouds, although it cannot bear the weight for three years. Although the first king has borne the burden, he is not the eldest son of Yan to succeed to the throne, and Lun Xu is still the second son. Concubine Ciyi mourned for the first king, and could not exceed the period of time. ”

Yin Jin of the Southern People's Party fiercely refuted: "Song Shilie, you read the book of sages in vain, and you don't know the difference between the gift of the scholar and the gift of the dynasty. "Etiquette, Mourning Clothes, and Decay" has a cloud, and when the first son dies, the second son born to his wife is established, also known as the eldest son. Concubine Ciyi should mourn for the first king for three years! Zheng Xuan of the Han Dynasty noted "Mourning Clothes" that he established the second son, also known as the eldest son. This is called the death of the eldest son, and the second son can also be called the eldest son! Renzu takes filial piety as his heir, which is in line with Zheng Xuan's words. Although the first king of Xiaozong is the second son, he also has the title of the eldest son, and he must not be regarded as a concubine! ”

Song Shilie also quickly retorted: ""Etiquette, Mourning Clothes, and Decay" does have this statement, but there is the following. The second son born to his wife has the same name. And according to the "Daming Law" and my North Korea's "Five Etiquettes of the National Dynasty", no matter the eldest son or the second son, the mother can only serve the mourning for the year! ”

"You are so bold, now you are all in the Datong Heavenly Empire, what are you still talking about "Da Ming Law"!" Yin Jin really couldn't say it, so he began to buckle his hat.

Song Shilie said: ""Da Ming Law" and "Da Tong Law" have not changed much in mourning clothes. Even if it is a place that has been changed, it will be simpler and simpler, and it will never be changed back to the three-year period! ”

The Westerners and Southerners joined the discussion.

As for the new monarch and the queen mother, they were left to dry by them. The struggle lasted for more than three months, and finally ended with the victory of the Westerners, who were almost completely stripped of their important posts.

The new monarch of North Korea, who is less than 20 years old, witnessed this party struggle all the way, and his heart has become extremely disgusted with the Westerners' Party.

Although Song Shilie won the victory of the Great Rites Discussion, the sentence "the second concubine born to his wife has the same name" is equivalent to saying that Li Di's father is a concubine, and the new monarch Li Li is a descendant of a concubine!

He is seriously succeeding the king, and his ass is not hot yet, and after becoming a concubine for some reason, can Li Di not respond in his heart?

But King Li Di did not dare to act rashly, because the Westerners were too powerful, and he had to bring in more forces to make a move.

At this time, some people wanted to overturn the results of the reform and turn the apportionment into a poll tax again. At the same time, the Westerner Party began to split, and there was an extremely heated discussion about whether to take back Baozhou and whether to maintain a large army.

The ministers of the Westerners, who held great power, suggested that the status quo be maintained, acquiescing in the occupation of Baozhou by China, and disbanding the old king's expanding army. They were called the Los Angeles Party.

The Western Party officials, who did not hold much power, suggested that they continue to maintain the army and take Baozhou back from China. In fact, it was to provoke the king to fight, but he did not dare to really fight, but only tried to seize power under the banner of recovering the lost territory. They are known as the original party.

King Li Di gradually leaned towards the original party and maintained the army to claim Baozhou. This guy also did not dare to start a war with China, and also under the banner of recovering the lost territory, he wanted to press down the Luo Party in power.

As a result, North Korea, which had already had too many troops, expanded its army by 3,000 again and made a fuss about the Northern Expedition.

At the time of the fierce struggle in the court, the "Collected Works of the Qianchu Dynasty" spread rapidly among the people. Those Chinese, Xiucai, and village officials in North Korea became loyal supporters of this theory. The "Datong Collection" is also spreading, but only one article is passed on on the theory of grid position, and the rest of the content is deliberately controlled.

At the same time, the atmosphere in the Korean literary scene is changing.

In the mid-to-late Ming Dynasty, "Jiangnan Literature", also known as "West Lake Graphic Text", was popular in Korea.

At first, during the Jiajing period, Tian Rucheng's "West Lake Excursion Journal" spread to North Korea and quickly became a popular reading material. Korean literati envied the prosperity of Hangzhou, and according to the records of the "West Lake Excursion Journal", they painted all the scenic spots in Hangzhou with their imagination. And around these pictures, create poetry, prose, and even.

The whole Jiangnan region is then glorified, and in the minds of these Korean literati, China's Jiangnan, especially Hangzhou, is a perfect paradise on earth. Everyone has a dream of the south of the Yangtze River, everyone has a dream of the West Lake, and if you have the opportunity, you must go to Hangzhou to see it in this life.

Now, with the establishment of the new dynasty in Datong, a small number of Korean students have written articles praising Nanjing after returning to China. The Jiangnan Dream soon turned into the Jinling Dream, and Korean literati began to create pictures of Nanjing, painting various scenic spots such as Xuanwu Lake and Zhongshan Temple, and then using the pictures to create literary works. called, Jinling Literature.

The popularity of Jinling literature, the importation of Chinese goods, and the spread of new ideas made the discontent brewing in the hearts of certain classes of literati in North Korea more and more intense.

In particular, the local gentry who were divided into acres have long resented the change of law, and hated the two classes of nobles for controlling the government, and they gradually accepted ideas such as the theory of status. In their understanding, they are equal to the aristocratic personality, and they can and must have room for improvement. As for the common people, what should they do?

Above me, everyone is equal. Below me, there is a clear hierarchy!

In all this way, the Chinese people, talents, gentry, and village officials of the DPRK are gradually moving towards a great ideological alliance.
