Chapter 668: Silla is dying
Liu Xuanji pretended to stroke his beard profoundly, and said slowly: "My lord, the most important thing in a country is military affairs, and the most important thing in a nation is culture; If you can't touch the military power for the time being, it is easy to arouse the suspicion of the king, so what you can do is to promote and strengthen the culture of Silla, which can best enhance the status of a person in the hearts of the people and literati. ”
"I understand everything." Park Ji-yong asked expectantly, "So what should we do?" ”
Liu Xuanji smiled and beckoned behind him, Wang Shi and Wang Lei stood up, carried two big burdens, put them in front of Park Zhiyong, and untied the burden, only to see that the two bags were full of books, adding up to more than 30 books.
"This is ......" Park Ji-yong looked at the two burdened books with a confused expression.
Liu Xuanji smiled and said, "My lord, this is specially brought from Datang by Poor Dao...... Culture. ”
Park Ji-yong roughly understood Liu Xuanji's intentions, and said happily when he heard the words: "Great, Mr. Liu has a heart, the Tang culture is rich, and all countries admire it, although I Silla has always admired and learned the Tang culture, but I have not been able to get a glimpse of its essence, these classics prepared by Mr. Liu for me must be classics of the Tang culture." ”
"It's nature." Liu Xuanji smiled and nodded, "Adults, you can widely accept literati as students, learn the Chinese of these books, and then go to Silla to study around and spread culture, the most important thing is to let them use your name, or in a few years, you will be the teacher of all literati in Silla." ”
"Wonderful, this trick is wonderful." Park Ji-yong and Park Myung-soon couldn't help but nod their heads and praise when they heard this, they are senior members of the DPRK and China, and they naturally know how much communication and influence the mouths of those literati have, and they can almost directly affect the direction of public opinion.
Park Zhiyong happily picked up the first book on the stack on the left, only to see that the cover read "Chu Ci", Liu Xuanji saw this and introduced: "My lord, this is a collection of poems by the patriotic poet Qu Yuan during the Warring States Period. ”
"Qu Yuan? I seem to have heard of it. Park Zhiyong opened it as he spoke, and when he saw it for the first time, he couldn't help but read: "Emperor Gaoyang's Miao descendant, Emperor I'm called Boyong." Seti Zhen is in Meng Xixi, but Geng Yinwu surrenders to ......"
He read and read, and couldn't help shaking his head, sure enough, the ancients were particular about rhyme when they read books, and the rhythm of Lisao is very neat and beautiful.
After reading more than a dozen sentences, Park Ji-yong stopped and couldn't put it down: "Wonderful! Wonderful! Such beautiful poetry is almost heavenly. ”
Liu Xuanji smiled and said: "What the adult just read is Qu Yuan's most famous "Lisao", which is also highly respected among the literati of the Tang Dynasty, and the adult really has a good vision. ”
"Ah, hahaha, I can see at a glance that this "Lisao" is a good thing, a good thing!" Park Zhiyong was praised by Liu Xuanji, and suddenly couldn't find the north, and then asked, "I heard that there is a festival in Datang that seems to be related to this Qu Yuan?" ”
"Yes, sir." Liu Xuanji said, "It's the Duanyang Festival, also known as the Dragon Boat Festival." ”
Pu Mingshun on the side asked curiously when he heard this: "Then what is the relationship between this Duanyang Festival and Qu Yuan?" ”
Liu Xuanji began to popularize science for them: "In China, the fifth day of May every year is the Dragon Boat Festival, which is a traditional festival in China, and the Dragon Boat Festival is a festival for disease prevention and epidemic prevention before the Spring and Autumn Period.
On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, he was martyred and died, and on the day Qu Yuan threw himself into the river, the people of Chu died because they were reluctant to let the virtuous minister Qu Yuan throw himself into the river, and many people rowed to chase and save. They scrambled to be the first, and when they chased to Dongting Lake, Qu Yuan disappeared. Since then, dragon boats have been rowed on May 5 every year to commemorate it. Borrowing a dragon boat to disperse the fish in the river, so as not to eat Qu Yuan's body, some people wrapped zongzi with glutinous rice and zongzi leaves, and threw them into the river, the purpose was similar, they wanted to feed the fish with zongzi and prevent the fish from eating Qu Yuan's body. Later, dragon boat racing and eating zongzi became the custom of the Dragon Boat Festival, the purpose is to pay tribute to Qu Yuan, this custom gradually expanded, and finally spread throughout the land of China, the Dragon Boat Festival has some other customs, drinking realgar wine, hanging mugwort leaves and calamus, hanging purses and tying five-color silk threads, etc., most of these customs are for the purpose of dispelling diseases and warding off evil spirits. ”
After hearing this, Pu Mingshun couldn't help but sigh: "I see, no wonder when we returned to China and passed through Youzhou, it coincided with the Dragon Boat Festival, and we saw that mugwort leaves and iris were hung in front of the door of every household, but I didn't expect it to be a festival custom, which is really interesting." ”
Park Ji-yong was fascinated for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up and said, "Mr. Liu, do you think that if I turn this Dragon Boat Festival into our Silla festival, will those illiterate people remember me?" ”
Liu Xuanji was shocked when he heard this, and looked at Park Jiyong in surprise, why was he surprised, because when Li Hao made a plan for him, he asked him to instigate the Silla people to plagiarize the Chinese Dragon Boat Festival, Liu Xuanji refused at first, because he didn't think that the Silla people were so shameless and shameless that they plagiarized the festivals of other countries, and Li Hao said with certainty at that time that the Silla people would definitely plagiarize the Dragon Boat Festival, because they themselves are a shameless nation.
Unexpectedly, everything was said by Li Hao, and before Liu Xuanji instigated it, Park Zhiyong took the initiative to plagiarize the Dragon Boat Festival.
Liu Xuanji deliberately pretended to be embarrassed when he heard this, and said, "That's ...... It's not good, after all, Qu Yuan is ......"
"What is it?" Park Zhiyong raised his eyebrows and said, "Is Qu Yuan a Tang person?" ”
Liu Xuanji froze when he heard this, shook his head and said, "No." "Qu Yuan is not a Datang person in the first place, the Tang Dynasty has only been established for a few decades, and Qu Yuan has been dead for a long time.
Park Ji-yong said with a high spirit, "Since Qu Yuan is not a Tang person, what are we afraid of, you may not know, in ancient times, our Silla land was very large, Qu Yuan's ancestral home is in our Silla, and he is our Silla people." ”
Liu Xuanji was shocked, he felt that his three views were about to collapse, he thought that Li Hao was a very shameless person, but this Park Jiyong was simply shameless to the realm of supernatural beauty, Silla only appeared in the Han Dynasty, and at that time it was just a few small tribal villages, as for the Warring States period, Silla didn't seem to have been inhabited here, it is estimated that they still lived a savage life on the day of the knot, and they actually had the face to say that the land of Silla was very large at that time? also said that Qu Yuan, who was full of wealth, was a Silla person, was he even deceived? Liu Xuanji felt that he was about to be unable to resist pumping him.
Pu Mingshun touted on the side: "Gao, cousin, your trick is really powerful, if you promote this Dragon Boat Festival among the people in your name, presumably the people will praise your cousin." ”
Park Zhiyong was so proud that he sneered when he heard this, and Liu Xuanji secretly sneered: "Yes, people in China will praise it, but this will annoy the group of scholars in the Tang Dynasty, let them know that the "Chu Ci" they often recite has suddenly become written by the Silla people, and it is strange that they don't strangle you." ”
At this time, Park Ji-yong picked up another book from another stack of books, and saw that the cover read "Analects".
"The Analects, haha." Park Ji-yong said happily, "The Analects of Sage Confucius, I, a Silla literati, must read almost everyone." ”
Liu Xuanji squeezed out a smile and nodded: "This stack is all Confucian classics." ”
"Confucianism...... Kong Sheng...... All right. Park Zhiyong looked at the Analects and listened to his tone, as if he was very envious, envious of something, envious of Confucius in the land of China.
Park Ji-yong hastily flipped through the Analects, and suddenly asked, "Mr. Liu, do you know where is the ancestral home of this Confucian Sheng?" ”
Liu Xuanji said: "Kong Sheng's ancestral hometown seems to be in the Song Kingdom, and the specific location is not clear to the poor Dao, and the poor Dao only knows that he is a native of the Lu State." ”
"Lu Guo...... Song Guo......" Park Ji-yong began to groan, then got up and took out a painting from a painting cabinet, unfolded it and looked at it, it was not a painting, it was a map.
His map is basically a map of the Korean Peninsula, but he also draws many territories in the Bohai Sea that have become the Tang Dynasty.
Park Ji-yong asked Liu Xuanji to look at the map and asked, "Where does Mr. Liu refer to the Lu State and the Song Kingdom?" ”
Liu Xuanji pointed roughly at the map and said, "The Song Kingdom is here, and the Lu Kingdom is here." ”
Park Ji-yong frowned thoughtfully when he heard this: "These two places ...... Seems to ......"
Seeing him like this, Liu Xuanji's heart suddenly rose, and he secretly thought: "He won't shamelessly say that Kong Sheng is also from Silla, right?" ”
The next moment, he verified his idea, and Park Ji-yong said, "It seems that these two places were once also the land of my Silla, so in this way, Kong Sheng turned out to be my Silla." ”
Liu Xuanji was already stunned, he really wanted to drag Li Hao over now, let Li Hao see, what is shameless, what is real shameless, let him open his eyes, Li Hao is weaker than him.
Park Myeong-soon pursued Park Ji-yong again, and Park Ji-yong pretended to be modest and said: "Actually, at the beginning, we can't say that Confucius is our Silla, otherwise it is very likely to annoy the Tang people, after all, Confucius is very important in their hearts, and we can only say that Confucius may be a Silla person." It is possible that these three words are good, but they are plausible, and the Tang people will not be able to accuse us, and when we will grow Confucianism in Silla and develop our national strength at the same time, then we can tell the whole world openly and honestly that Confucius is our Silla people, and Confucianism is also Silla's. ”
Liu Xuanji's three views have collapsed, and now he doesn't know what to say, so he can only laugh with him vigorously, but he is sneering in his heart: "King Qiongnan is really like a god, the Silla people are really shameless to the extreme, how can Kong Sheng be touched by them, they don't know Kong Sheng's status in the hearts of Chinese literati, it is a god-like existence, their stupidity will completely anger the Tang Dynasty and bring ruin to Silla, how can the prince often say that sentence?" Oh, yes, you won't die if you don't die. ”
