Chapter 264: Datong
Xiang Guogong nodded with satisfaction and asked how the logistics were prepared, and a logistics official told Xiang Guogong that it was enough for the army to last half a year, and if the army wanted the rations of the people in the city back, it would be enough for one year.
In the return of the officers, everyone in the city was confirmed, they were ready, all prepared, and if Assasin came with a large army this time, there would be only one result.
Return!
Xiangguo Gong asked Lin Quan to talk to the scholars in the city as much as possible, and it was this group of scholars who were most likely to notice that something was wrong. In order to stabilize the morale of the army and allow merchants to continue to bring in grain, the city must remain peaceful.
Lin Quan said yes, and asked Xiangguo Gong, as for whether those who surrendered to the army could be trusted, after all, they turned out to be people in white, and if Assasin brought someone to call, their loyalty was still a little worrying.
Xiangguo Gong pondered for a while, and said to Lin Quan: "This matter is also handed over to you, try not to lose people's hearts." ”
Lin Quan said okay, and then Xiangguo Bus replaced some daily problems, so he asked them to retreat.
After Lin Quan left here, he went to the palace to meet the prince.
When Prince Avatar saw Lin Quan, he also greeted him very happily, hugged Lin Quan and said, "Lord Lin, it's been a long time. ”
Lin Quan nodded, and with the help of the translator, told Avatar that he was a little bored staying in the city these days, and he didn't know if Avatar would be able to go out hunting with him.
Avatar has been staying in the palace since he surrendered, and he was a little tired of it, so he nodded in agreement.
When Lin Quan waited for him to change his armor, he went to find Chen Jingjing and explained Chen Jingjing one thing.
After hearing this, Chen Jingjing looked at Lin Quan in surprise and whispered, "Husband, do you really want to be like this?" ”
Lin Quan nodded, hoping that Chen Jingjing could understand, if Chen Jingjing was unwilling, he would not force himself, and find someone else.
Chen Jingjing thought for a while, lowered her head and said, "Husband, outsiders may not be credible, let's take the concubine." ”
Lin Quan looked at Chen Jingjing with some distress, and said to Chen Jingjing: "Sister Jing, I have wronged you." ”
Chen Jingjing didn't speak, put on her armor, and arrived at the gate of the palace with Lin Quan.
Avatar didn't care, and rode a horse on the street with Lin Quan, looking at this prosperous scene, Avatar said to Lin Quan: "I heard before that you are like barbarians, and everywhere you go, there is no grass. But now it seems to be a misunderstanding. ”
Lin Quan naturally said the Confucian royal way, they are the teachers of the king, they are here to send troops for the people of the world, they freeze to death and do not demolish the house, starve to death and do not plunder. All that is done is justice, and no one will be killed indiscriminately.
Lin Quan also talked about the difference between Xirong and the Central Plains in that Xirong has no distinction between righteousness and benefit, everything Xirong does is for profit, and the sin of Xirong lies here, as their scriptures say, it is more difficult for a rich person to attain the Tao than a camel through the eye of a needle. And he said, Who is the righteous?
The Central Plains is different, the ill-gotten gains of the Central Plains will never be picked up, and the army of the Central Plains has never committed any crimes. They are different from Xirong's army, they are not fighting for money, not for wealth, but for the morality in their hearts, so the army of the Central Plains can win many battles here.
Lin Quan's set of big truths fooled Avatar, a prince who didn't know the world, Avatar really thought it was like this, and sighed that the place in the extreme east was really a wonderful country.
Lin Quan told the Avatar about Xinmin, in the Yu Empire, everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, everyone is happy, whether they are poor or rich, they have their own happiness, this happiness is not brought to them by brocade clothes and jade food, but inherent in the heart, it is the real happiness, this is called the joy of Yan Hui.
The translator asked what Yan Hui was, Lin Quan said that he was a disciple of Xuan's father, but the translator still didn't understand, Lin Quan explained, and the translator translated it to Avatar.
Avatar asked a few times, and was very interested in Yan Huizhi's happiness, Lin Quan continued to explain that the residents of the city are not happy now, and their happiness is only based on the richness of the city. If they are thrown to the far north, they will panic, fear, and not feel happy, and the people of the Central Plains will not, as he saw, their army has come here thousands of miles away, and there is still a smile on their faces, this is the joy of Yan Hui.
Lin Quan said that he was a little weak when he said this, these soldiers were indeed full of spring breeze, after all, they were living a prosperous life now, they had obtained everything they didn't want before, and they were not happy to have ghosts.
Avatar nodded, it is true that the soldiers of the Central Plains are full of spring breeze, without the slightest sorrow.
Lin Quan said that in addition, the Central Plains selects the virtuous and capable, and let the virtuous and famous people govern the world, this is the philosopher country that the wise men of Xirong talk about, the emperor of the Central Plains, is the son of heaven, his wisdom is no one can compare, he is wise and decisive, under his governance, the Central Plains has no war, hunger, and disaster. The old people have someone to support, and they don't have to worry about not being able to support themselves after they are old and weak. And the young, there are also people who raise them, and they will not worry about the poverty of the family and die early. In the Central Plains, everyone has a field to plant, everyone has food, and every adult man can start a family without worrying about being lonely and growing old.
In the Central Plains, the money you dropped, even if you look for it a month later, it will still be there. Every night, the Central Plains people do not have to close their doors, and there are no thieves to steal.
Avatar listened to Lin Quan's words, envious, he had already heard all kinds of rumors in the Far East, and now when he heard Lin Quan's appearance, he couldn't help but believe a little.
He didn't suspect that Lin Quan was lying to him, because Lin Quan was sought after by scholars in the city, and scholars all said that Lin Quan was a wise man from the country of the extreme east, and a wise man would naturally not deceive people.
As they talked, they reached the Ott River, a great river in the white-clothed boulder, which was surging even in the dry season of autumn.
Lin Quan walked on the bank of the river with Avatar, Lin Quan continued, in fact, this Xirong and the Central Plains are all human beings, and their nature is the same, but why can the Central Plains be so perfect, but Xirong has all kinds of bad habits? The reason lies in the education, Lin Quan said that the Central Plains people have slowly become so noble because they have received the education of Confucianism, and if the Xirong people can also accept this education, then naturally they can also.
When Avatar was about to ask Lin Quan how to accept this education, Lin Quan secretly gestured to Chen Jingjing.
"Then the wise man ......"
Before Avatar could say a word, the horse was suddenly frightened and stood up, and Avatar didn't pay attention for a while, and was thrown down.
When everyone wanted to save it, the horse stepped on it like crazy, and before Avatar could be treated, he was trampled on the chest by the horse.
Wait until the guards around him kill the horse, and one of the guards puts the Avatar on the horse, and then takes the Avatar back to the city.
Lin Quan also returned to the city in a hurry, no one paid attention, Chen Jingjing quietly pony, and pulled out the poisonous needle on the horse's body with a magnet.
The group hurriedly returned to the palace, and after Mercury heard the news, he also came to treat him personally, but after Mercury saw it, he just shook his head, and then the palace doctor arrived.
When the imperial doctor arrived, he only sighed, and on the way here, Avatar had already passed away.
When Lin Quan heard the news, he couldn't help but shed tears, and his expression was sad, as if an extremely important person had died.
Mercury, as the black cardinal, the prince died, and he was in charge here, he inquired about what happened, and pondered for a while.
He glanced at Lin Quan, then shook his head, according to the scene just now, Lin Quan should be courting Avatar, and Avatar is also interested in the knowledge of the Far East.
How could Lin Quan not harm Avatar, now it seems that it should be an accident.
Mercury thought so, so he blamed this incident on an accident, and when Lin Quan finally mourned, he also regretted, could it be that God wanted to cut off the Western transmission of Confucianism?
After the funeral, Lin Quan continued to talk about Confucianism with the scholars in the city, many of whom had become scholars.
In a big lecture, Lin Quan said that after talking with these Xijon scholars for so many years, he found that the two were different.
Lin Quan naturally can't talk about the distinction between righteousness and benefit like deceiving the Avatar, many of these Xirong scholars know official language, and they have more or less understood it.
Lin Quan said that the advantage of the Central Plains culture is that the Central Plains is a Xibi culture and adheres to the heart in the ontology.
After these years of discussion with Xirong scholars, Lin Quan further improved his knowledge of King Cheng Zhulu and the early Confucianism, and he absorbed the logic of Western wisdom and further extended the original subtle science.
Xi Pi is the conclusion he reached, Xi Pi comes from the Book of Changes: "Fu Kun, its stillness is also Xi, and its movement is also wide." ”
Lin Quan said that the role of the master of this dazed heaven and earth is to open up, if the master only has a master and no space, then there is nothing between the vast heaven and earth. If there is only Xi and there is no separation, then there is a dead thing between heaven and earth.
Lin Quan's theory is based on Wei Baiyun's rational qi, but Lin Quan also found that although rational qi is not static, there must be quiet, so during this time, the concept of Xi Pi was derived.
This is the way of change and difficulty of change, there is stillness in movement, and there is movement in stillness.
However, the difference between the bi and the movement, the meaning of the convergence and condensation, the expansion and extension, whether it is the or the di, the essence is moving.
This is also Tianxingjian, a gentleman who strives for self-improvement.
The Central Plains culture is one rule and one chaos, divided and combined, combined and divided in the two words of Xipi, the governance is from the opening to the chaos, and the chaos is from the chaos to the opening.
Therefore, the Central Plains culture is a mediocre culture, and it will not cling to the defects, nor will it be rigid and self-serving. The culture of the Central Plains is in the midst of the development, and it is moving forward in line with the way of heaven.
The Central Plains is in line with the way of heaven, so the Central Plains is strong, and this time the Central Plains is weak and broken, which is the proof.
After Lin Quan's argument, he looked at the scholars around him and stopped talking.
