Historically, it was not until the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century that China began to reflect on its ideology and culture.

Before that, in terms of ideology and culture, the Chinese had always considered themselves to be the first in the world and had always been at the forefront of the world world.

It was not until in the collision between the East and the West, after being beaten miserably by the Western powers, that the intellectuals began to reflect on it in an all-round way.

First, reformists like Liang Qichao felt that they should follow the example of the West. Later, a large number of scholars represented by Lu Xun made a comprehensive denial of traditional Chinese ideology and culture. In their writings, China's traditional ideology and culture were criticized bloody, and pedantic people like Kong Yiji became the image of Chinese literati. All Chinese sleep in a papier-mâché room, insensitive

This kind of criticism was necessary at the time, and it was not enough to awaken the people.

Qin Mu attributed the reason why China faced the fall of the whole territory again and again after the Han and Tang dynasties to the increasingly closed and rigid ideology and culture, which was absolutely absent before the end of the Qing Dynasty, which had a strong impact on Gu Yanwu and Fu Qingzhu.

Before, Gu Yanwu himself already had a faint concern about the rigidity of his thoughts, and he opposed the Eight Strands of Scholars, because the Eight Strands of Scholars had caused serious imprisonment to the minds of scholars.

It's just that due to the limitations of the times, he hasn't been able to raise the problem to this height, and now after Qin Mu sublimates the problem, he has a feeling of sudden enlightenment, and the surging tide is difficult to calm down for a long time.

During the Han and Tang dynasties, China was far ahead of the world. But in the Ming Dynasty, in the astronomical calendar, arithmetic medicine, physical chemistry, etc., even guns were cast. I'm starting to learn from others.

So what is the reason why China, which was far ahead, began to lag behind other nations?

Gu Yanwu and the others also tried to argue with Qin Mu, but when Qin Mu put these living examples in front of them, they were immediately speechless.

Qin Mu felt that in order to change the situation of China's gradual backwardness, it was first necessary to transform it culturally and ideologically, rather than starting from the political system. What kind of constitutional monarchy, engaging in that thing is definitely looking for death.

For a country to rise rapidly, a high degree of centralization is absolutely indispensable. Germany and Japan before World War I, the Soviet Union before World War II, the reason why they were able to rise rapidly from a tattered state. Leap to become a powerful country that can control the entire world. The most important point is their highly centralized rule.

What kind of republic system is practiced like the United States, look at the time of their rise, after more than 100 years of self-destruction, without the intrusion of foreign enemies, the most common thing is that by chance, they have a chance to rise only after picking up the leaks in World War I.

In view of this, Qin Mu will definitely not engage in any constitutional monarchy, at least not now. That set of things is suitable for keeping, not for pioneering.

We just want to be emperors. It is necessary to have a high degree of centralization of power and bring the whole country together, so that it is possible to quickly open up the situation.

In the previous political reforms, Qin Mu only touched on the surface, and never thought of subverting the monarchy.

In the formation of a system, we must first have ideological and cultural guidance, and if we rashly engage in a constitutional monarchy, not only will we not be able to lead the country to become strong and prosperous, but on the contrary, we will only have one end, and we will die a miserable death.

The system cannot be changed, but the ideological aspect must be reformed, and the eight shares of scholars must be abolished, and this is the first step he took to loosen the ideological constraints of the scholars.

Then, let the elites such as Gu Yanwu and Fu Qingzhu think, explore, and criticize the closure and rigidity brought about by Confucian solipsism, and slowly guide people's ideological changes.

At the same time, it is appropriate to introduce some Western ideas to collide, such as slowly propagating some theories of "competition for nature and survival of the fittest".

In short, this will be a slow process, and the idea of changing the minds of the people of the country in one day is a very naïve and self-defeating act.

"Listening to the words of King Qin, it is better to read a book for ten years, the minister still has some questions to think about, please ask the king of Qin to forgive his sins, and the minister will retire first." Gu Yanwu was anxious to be alone for a while, so he got up and said goodbye.

Qin Mu didn't leave him alone, some things had to be done slowly, he could figure it out best, the opening was too big at one time, it would hurt his muscles and bones.

As soon as Gu Yanwu left, Sima An and Fu Qingzhu also left one after another, leaving only Qin Mu to sit alone under the window, watching the light snow in winter gently fall in the quiet courtyard, it was already dusk, and the evening bell of Dabao'en Temple faintly came from outside the high wall, clear and far away.

"Zhong Yun is light and pine snow; The smoke of the furnace is thin and the clouds are in the mountains. Qin Mu felt from his heart, and recited lightly, but when he picked up the wine glass, he found that the glass was dry, and no one poured the wine.

He looked at Liu and asked, "What are you doing in a daze?" Come and pour the wine. ”

"Oh King Qin forgive your sins,"

"Well, this king forgives you for your innocence, and you don't look like you have the heart to ask for sin."

This Qin Mu is not talking nonsense, although Liu Ru has become a maid, but there is no sincerity and fear of the subordinates, and even the tone of asking for guilt gives people the feeling of "routine".

Liu Ru glanced at him quickly, lowered his head and poured wine, when Han Zanzhou's voice came from outside, and reported that Huang Lianshan asked to see him.

When Qin Mu asked people to bring Huang Lianshan in, Huang Lianshan hurriedly finished his salute and said with a happy face: "King Qin, the matter is done, Sun Kewang died suddenly, his three generals Feng Shuangli, Bai Wenxuan, and Ma Weixing were leaderless, Li Dingguo led the army to arrive in time and appeased him, and Bai Wenxuan, who had always had a good relationship with Li Dingguo, took the lead in attaching. Subsequently, Feng Shuangli and Ma Weixing also joined each other. King Qin, Sun Kewang has eliminated this disaster. ”

"Good!" Qin Mu hit a few small shots, and said happily, "This time the night is not closed beautifully, although this matter is operated by Qin Zhaoming and Lu Wanzhong, but the main thing is that you arranged it well, good, good!" The king of tomorrow will be rewarded heavily. ”

"Thank you King Qin, the minister just arranged according to King Qin's instructions, and didn't dare to take credit."

"Okay, okay, whoever has merit or not, this king knows in his heart." Qin Mu's middle finger tapped lightly on the small table, thought for a while and said, "Since Sun Kewang has taken it, you quickly pass on the king's order and let Li Dingguo open up the post road into Yunnan as soon as possible." If these people don't know what to do, let Li Dingguo go all out to exterminate them. ”

"Yes, King Qin."

"Let's go."

"The minister Qin Wang, the minister still has something to report, when Li Dingguo appeased Sun Kewang's troops, he also met with a person named Long Wangbao, this person was originally sent by Yunnan Shiping Tusi Long Zaitian to find Sun Kewang and invite Sun Kewang to enter Yunnan. Li Dingguo and Long Wangbao are also old acquaintances, and the two talked privately for a long time, but the ministers couldn't find out what they talked about. King Qin, look"

Qin Mu shook his hand and said: "No need, this king can trust Li Dingguo, Long Wangbao and him are old acquaintances, and it is human nature to reminisce about the past, so there is no need to make a fuss." ”

"Yes. The minister retired. ”

Huang Lianshan retreated, Qin Mu casually picked up the wine glass again, this time Liu Ru was interested, and poured the wine in advance.

Qin Mu was happy in his heart, pointed to the position next to him and said, "Come, sit down, and have a few drinks with this king." ”

"The servant doesn't dare."

"If you dare to disobey orders, don't you dare to drink? Sit down, don't ruin my interest. ”

Liu Ru glanced at him quietly, and then sat down according to her words, her petite figure had a different kind of enchantment, her moist skin was as white as jade, greasy as fat, and her body naturally exuded a mature charm.

Qin Mu inadvertently saw her sit down, and tried her best to keep a pair of small feet, as if she was afraid of being seen.

Qin Mu couldn't help but smile, and in order to divert her attention, he casually recited: "Yeqiao Dange is always smoking, and the spring is empty in front of the flowers. After Beipu asked who Fangcao, Sileng should be on the side of hatred, I have read some of your poems, and it is very good, very good. ”

Once again, he exaggerated his poems, Liu Ru was inevitably a little happy in his heart, and said modestly: "The servant doesn't dare to be the praise of the King of Qin." ”

"Humane Hedong Junming is straightforward and refreshing, but judging from your poems, the boldness is insufficient, but the thoughts of the youngest daughter are revealed. Like yourself, you can't hide that strong femininity. ”

Qin Mu changed from commenting on poetry to commenting on people, which made Liu Ru difficult to answer for a while, so he raised his cup and said, "The servant respects King Qin with a cup." ”

"Okay, done."

The two drank together under the window, and after drinking a few glasses of wine, Liu Ru relaxed a lot, and couldn't help asking, "King Qin, do you really feel that Confucianism is becoming more and more closed?" ”

Qin Mu reached out and pinched her chin, lifted her charming face, and said with a smile: "It takes time to discuss this issue, it's cold, sit down, and this king will talk to you slowly." ”

"King Qin, servant"

When Qin Mu reached out to hug her, Liu Ru avoided it knowingly, but Qin Mu's hand happened to cover her soft breasts.

Liu Ru froze suddenly, but Qin Mu was very calm, and of course he didn't mean to shrink his hand.

Then he also smiled and said: "The veins are double with water peaches, and a ball of soft brewed Qiong Miao." Waiting for leisure is not allowed to see the spring breeze, and the jade buckle is tied to the red silk. Wen Biyu, greasy as ointment, drunk to start with Xing Hao"

Liu Ru was as red as drunk, and lowered his head and said: "King Qin, let's talk about Confucianism."
