Mohist Tang - Chapter 1309
All nations come to Korea,
As envoys from all over the world entered the Tang Dynasty, they trekked all the way to Chang’an City, which shocked them.
The tall and majestic city wall is enough to frighten any enemy. The red brick roads in the city are paved, the feet are not stained with mud, the shops are numerous, and the people are noisy. I’m afraid the people in only one city are comparable to the population of a small country, which not only shocked the envoys of all countries.
When they were placed in Honglu temple, they couldn’t wait to go out of Honglu temple and want to enjoy this remarkable city.
A wide range of commodities, business trips from all over the world, and miraculous buildings have amazed all the messengers.
“The Tang Dynasty is worthy of being the most prosperous country in the world,” exclaimed a Lin Yi envoy.
Many envoys from small countries nodded one after another. They couldn’t help but indulge in the prosperous customs of the Tang Dynasty. One by one, they scrambled to buy rare foreign objects and were ready to give them to their country’s leaders after returning home.
“I really don’t know. The prosperity of the Tang Dynasty is a manifestation, and it is the hundreds of schools of thought that make the Tang prosperous. As long as we can learn from the words of the hundreds of schools of thought, we can make our country rich and strong.” the messenger of Fusang sneered in his heart. Fusang came across the sea to learn the advanced knowledge of the Tang Dynasty, The most prominent are Confucianism and Mohism.
The achievements of Confucianism are in the political system, while the achievements of Mohism are in the economic construction. The magnificent Mohist organ City, the exquisite four clocks and the Weishui bridge across the Weihe River are all masterpieces of Mohism, which can not help but impress many insightful messengers.
The messenger of Fusang came prepared and had already detected the intelligence of all schools. When he learned that the relationship between Confucianism and Mohism was suddenly hostile, he couldn’t help sighing in his heart. It seems that Confucianism and Mohism can only choose one family, otherwise he will get nothing.
“Foreigners admire Kong Sheng and come to visit him. They also ask him to show mercy and give him knowledge to educate the world.” Fujiwara, the messenger of Fusang, first took action. Fujiwara personally visited the Confucius house in the name of emperor Shuming of Fusang and asked for Confucianism.
Kong Yingda’s face was happy. He didn’t expect that the messenger of Fusang would admire Confucianism so much. If he could popularize Confucianism in the surrounding countries, wouldn’t Confucianism win first in this hundred schools of thought contention.
At present, he dressed up and invited Fujiwara to the Confucius house. In front of the portrait of Kong Sheng, he told the story of Kong Sheng, and said frankly whether to spread Confucianism to Fusang still needs to wait until his Majesty’s permission.
As soon as the news came out, Confucianism suddenly became popular. Since the rise of Mohism, Confucianism has gradually declined. Now Fusang has come across the sea to study Confucianism, which can not help but give Confucianism a stimulant.
As for whether your majesty agrees to teach Fusang Confucianism, in the view of Confucianism, Kong Yingda’s move is just a polite word. I’m afraid your majesty will not miss the opportunity to expand the influence of the Tang Dynasty.
However, before the Confucianists were happy for too long, the news came that Koguryo’s envoy personally visited the Mohist School and personally promised the Mohist School’s consent. Koguryo personally canonized the Mohist school as the national religion and respected the Mohist school alone.
“Only respect Mohism!”
As soon as this news came out, all the schools of thought were in an uproar. How many schools of thought thought thought it was their dream to be respected by one family alone. Now only one Confucian family has realized it. How can the other hundred schools not have such a dream? Now the Mohist school is even at hand.
However, this is not over yet. Soon, more powerful news came. The Mohists rejected Koguryo’s request, and even made it clear that Koguryo did not have to ask her majesty. The Mohists are the Mohists of the Tang Dynasty and will not spread to other countries.
“I heard that mohou spent a lot of money on studying Mohism in the western country, and Confucianism was ready to teach Confucianism to Fusang. Why did Mohism cherish itself and refuse to accept Koguryo’s good intentions.” yuangai Suwen, Koguryo’s envoy, retorted.
“Mohism has no national boundaries, but Mohists have national boundaries! Mohism only works for the Tang Dynasty. If you admire Mohism, you can study it yourself.” Merton said decisively, and Koguryo’s envoy yuangai suwu immediately left angrily.
Watching yuangai suwu leave, Wu Meiniang asked in some doubt, “Fusang and Koguryo are both oriental countries. Why did Fusang choose Confucianism and Koguryo stare at Mohism.”
Merton explained: “that’s because the king of Fusang, Shu tomorrow emperor, is a Ming Lord. What he wants is to rule the world. Naturally, he needs to learn from the unified system of Confucianism and become stronger and stronger. Koguryo is a military general. He continues to use Mohist ink skills to improve his combat power and consolidate his power. If Koguryo grows stronger, he will not aim his knife and gun at the Tang Dynasty in the future.”
“Confucianism is really lucky to have such a good opportunity to expand, but my Mohist school can only remain complacent.” Wu Meiniang regretted that the Mohist School rejected a good opportunity to respect the Mohist school.
Merton sneered: “Good luck, that’s not true. Koguryo’s threat is now, while Fusang’s threat is the future. Fusang, which has been unified by Confucianism, is an island country with no foreign enemies. When it becomes stronger and stronger, it will expand its ambition and land across the sea. China’s ten thousand li Sea territory will suffer. In the future, its threat is no less than that of the Huns of Han Dynasty and the Turks of Tang Dynasty. Do we want to establish ten thousand li sea territory in Tang Dynasty The Great Wall! ”
After Merton’s comments on Koguryo and Fusang were spread without reservation, the whole Chang’an city was in an uproar. No one thought that the two countries that admire all kinds of people should have such a great threat. However, hearing Merton’s analysis, people of insight could not help nodding slightly. What Merton said is reasonable.
“Bullshit, Mohism sticks to the rules and Confucianism spreads abroad, which is the great prosperity of Confucianism. Mohists must be jealous of Confucianism, maliciously spread rumors and destroy the expansion plan of Confucianism.” Kong Yingda heard rumors in the public, and his anger defeated the evil way.
In his opinion, the Mohists had mastered too many secret skills, and the Tang Dynasty could not agree to let Goguryeo respect the Mohists alone, otherwise Goguryeo would become the biggest threat to the Tang Dynasty, and the Mohists saw this, so they sternly refused Goguryeo envoys.
In order to bring Confucianism into the water, mojiazi openly publicized Fusang’s threat to Haijiang, which in his opinion is nonsense. For thousands of years, China’s Wanli Haijiang has been as solid as gold, and the threat to Haijiang is nonsense.
However, the Koguryo incident also gave Confucianism a little warning. According to the original plan of Confucianism, once we seize the opportunity, we must completely suppress Confucianism. However, Mohism does not have no other choice. If Mohism is severely suppressed, it may be counterproductive to let Mohism go to other countries.
The other hundred schools couldn’t help but be speechless when they saw the Sao operation of Mohism. Now Koguryo is ready to respect Mohism alone and Fusang is ready to respect Confucianism alone. These good things, which were originally envied by hundreds of schools, have made Mohists yellow.
Originally, many envoys were contacting other hundreds of families. They were very excited and immediately let the other hundreds choose to wait and see, waiting for the statement of the imperial court.
