Yang Ming decided to take Wang Xiu's suggestion, but it did not mean that the news that Zhao Yan had been killed by him would immediately spread to Luoyang.

In fact, after yesterday's incident, as a preparatory action, Fuzhi has been banned in the whole city for the first time, and no one else is allowed to go out except for the unsuspecting homeless.

But this method will definitely not last long, which also means that the day when Yang Ming returns to Luoyang will be advanced.

After Wang Xiu finished chatting with Yang Ming, he went back to Yingling first, packed his things and prepared to go to Luoyang with Yang Ming.

And Yang Ming, with two guards the next day, went up to Buqi Mountain for the last time before leaving.

When he arrived on the mountain, Zheng Xuan was making annotations for the "Book of Rites" in his own house.

Knowing that Yang Ming was here to resign, he stopped what he was doing and invited Yang Ming to walk around the academy.

Inadvertently, they walked to the field behind the academy.

At this time, Yang Ming noticed that the field had been covered with a layer of hay.

Curious, he went up to lift the hay, and then he was surprised to see a green field of wheat seedlings.

Two months ago, he saw that most of the wheat seedlings had been frozen and spoiled, and he thought that they would not survive.

"The power of life is more powerful than you and I expected." Zheng Xuan said.

Yang Ming nodded in agreement.

"It's the same with people." Zheng Xuan continued.

Yang Ming was thoughtful when he heard this.

Zheng Xuan uses things as metaphors, and what Mai Miao represents should be the people of Qingzhou.

Locusts, pestilences, famines, they will not be defeated.

But Mai Miao has Zheng Xuan who knows to lay hay for them, and who will send them 'winter clothes' for the people?

"Do you know the science of the weft?" Zheng Xuan said as he grabbed a handful of hay and put it on the ridge, and then sat down.

Yang Ming also took some cushions and sat next to him.

"The disciple doesn't know much." Yang Ming replied truthfully.

"That night, when I came out of the house, I saw the purple microstar bright, and the next day there was a matter of you killing Wang Fu in Luoyang, so I did a proverb." Zheng Xuan continued.

Yang Ming turned his head to look at Zheng Xuan for a long time.

The purple micro star is bright, which means to represent prosperity and prosperity.

He thought that Zheng Xuan just wanted to help him become famous, and he never thought that there would be such a thing.

Once again, his mind loosened.

Physique, prophecy, these doctrines, which will be considered superstitions in the future, are not entirely false? Or is it just a coincidence?

"Don't say a tree, don't be a forest, the sun and the moon alternate, the people will prosper." Zheng Xuan touched his long beard and said the proverb of the day again.

After stopping his movements, he looked at Yang Ming and said, "What you do is a good thing for the people. ”

Hearing this, Yang Ming unconsciously looked at the hay in front of him.

Speaking of which, he punished Wang Fu, burned the royal court, and then killed Zhao Yan, maybe for different reasons, but in terms of results, it is indeed like Zheng Xuan said, it is beneficial to the people.

So Zheng Xuan spread hay for the wheat seedlings, and he sent 'winter clothes' to the people?

Is this another coincidence? Or is there benevolence in his nature, but he doesn't know it?

Yang Ming took a deep breath, looked at Zheng Xuan and said, "Master, Wang Hu is dead." ”

Zheng Xuan sighed when he heard this, and said, "If he is an adult, he should be a talent for governing the county." ”

Wang Hu is hardworking, talented, and studious after apprenticeship, even if he is an ordinary disciple, he is deeply impressed.

"A month ago, I was trapped in the county seat, and only later did I find out that my family had run out of food, and my brother had been a cannibal with others." Yang Ming said and unconsciously clenched his fists.

He killed Zhao Yan because Zhao Yan deserved to die, but after the killing, his mood did not improve at all, because even if he killed Zhao Yan, Wang Hu would not be resurrected.

Zheng Xuan's eyes were sad when he heard this, how sad it is that he has become the food in the stomach of others.

"The most incomprehensible thing for me is that I questioned his brother, the eldest brother is like a father, and he should protect him thoroughly, and he actually said that Wang Hu is a Hu person." Yang Ming still looked sad and angry when he said this.

After a long time, he let out a long breath to calm his emotions a little.

"'If you are not of my race, your heart will be different', this is the cloud in the chapter of "The Left Biography of the Spring and Autumn Period: The Four Years of Chenggong"; The musicians are the same, and the etiquette is different. The same is a blind date, different is respectful, happy is flowing, and courtesy is leaving. This is what the "Book of Rites and Music" says. In the Spring and Autumn Period, Qin and Chu were all aliens, but in the Qin period, they were all Han people, what is our race? What is an interracial race? Zheng Xuan asked.

Zheng Xuan's words made Yang Ming fall into deep thought.

"The Left Biography of the Spring and Autumn Period" is an ancient scripture, and "The Book of Rites" is a modern scripture.

If Zheng Xue is concerned, before Qin, those who were not of our race were incompatible because of their different hearts, but after Qin, the first emperor unified the six countries, the car was on the same track, the book was the same, and the Chinese civilization completed the earliest ethnic integration, seeking common ground while reserving differences, and the different races naturally became our race.

It's just that Qin Shi Huang chose the law of violence, and after winning the country, it was also the Legalists who were known for their harshness, and the people of the six countries did not really return to their hearts, so as soon as Qin Shi Huang died, the empire fell apart and died.

Then Gaozu Liu Bang unified China, the rulers of the Han Dynasty learned a lesson and began to attach importance to ideological education, until Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty respected Confucianism, the concepts of etiquette, filial piety, and loyalty in Confucianism began to be implanted, and the way of governing the country with external Confucianism and internal law began.

Then Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty drove the Xiongnu to the north and cut the Qiang in the west, and the word "Han" formed a strong national centripetal force, and the Han people were proud of the Han, and even the aliens were proud of imitating the Han people.

However, when the empire reached its peak, attitudes towards aliens returned to the past.

In the words of Yang Ming's era: What grade are you? Dare to be like me?

The Han people have a natural sense of national superiority over these surrounding ethnic minorities, and then regard them as aliens, lowly, indecent, and despise the bottom of the chain.

Those so-called integration, eastward migration, and southward migration are nothing more than treating each other as slaves and using them as dogs.

Isn't this the root cause of the more than 100-year Qiang Chaos in the Eastern Han Dynasty?

Most people have completely forgotten that if you go back a few hundred years, there are only some tribes in the Yellow River valley that can really be called Huaxia.

The development of history is, in fact, a process of national integration.

Go with the flow, the country is strong;

Against the current, the country dies.

Zheng Xuan did not put forward his opinion, but he asked Yang Ming such a question, which was already an answer, and it was an answer that he had learned all his life.

Zheng Xuan, who also collects ancient and modern scripture literature, is not essentially a fusion?

Isn't it because of the inclusiveness it shows in history that the scriptures can finally be unified?

The scriptures are history, and the history is the present.

Yang Ming had to sigh again at this time, Zheng Xuan was talented.

And as a traverser, he naturally thought of another representative of the Chinese nation at this time, the Tang Dynasty.

The inclusiveness of the Tang Dynasty can be said to be the most in history, "the palace is opened in nine days, and all the nations are crowned with crowns", and countless foreign races are proud of the identity of the Tang people, and they are even more interested in the identity of the Tang people to open up territory for it.

Perhaps it is only in that era that things will change for Wang Hu.

"Teacher, preaching, teaching, and solving doubts, but the teacher is not all right, how to choose, how to use, Ziqian, you have your own conclusion in your heart, I hope that one day the world will be the same, and there will be no king and no more." Seeing the change in Yang Ming's expression, Zheng Xuan spoke.

With that, he got up, bowed his hand, and turned away.

Yang Ming hurriedly got up, returned the salute, and then looked at Zheng Xuan's back, his heart moved.

Except for him, the traverser, no one must have seen that the world is going to be in chaos?

For example, Zheng Xuan.

Zheng Xuan has traveled and studied for forty years, and there are few people who know the devastation of this big man better than him.

After his repeated failures, he also claimed to be incompetent, did he also know that the Han was no longer able to be redeemed by his personal ability?

There may not be an answer to this question, but at this moment, Yang Ming is more determined about the road ahead.

He wanted to take the road of hegemony before, but the end of this road was only to dominate the world.

But now, seeking common ground while reserving differences, and looking for the prosperous Tang Dynasty, this has become the way he really wants to go.

Although it may be an extremely difficult and thorny road in this era, he will also fight for it for the rest of his life.

Looking in the direction of Zheng Xuan, Yang Ming bowed and bowed.
