For a moment, King Gu Ye was in a daze. He couldn't even tell whether it was Chen Xu who started to be wary of Li Xinchen first, or whether Li Xinchen didn't take the court to heart at first. But he knew very well that now he was really stepping on this.
On a pirate ship, it is not that easy to get off the ship.
Sighing secretly in his heart, King Gu Ye could only lament that when he was young, he struggled in the troubled times of changing dynasties. When he got old, he thought he could live a peaceful life for two days, but who would have thought that he would be involved in a stronger whirlpool.
When he was young, he was only on the edge of the vortex, but now he is at the center of the entire vortex. As for the guy who stirred up the vortex and stirred up the world's turmoil, he was not far in front of him at this time. Thinking of this,
King Gu Ye could only lament that fate plays tricks on people, and God always seems to like to make fun of himself.
"Gong Gu," Li Xingchen watched Du Qi leave, turned around and whispered, "I have something to ask of Gong Gu."
King Gu Ye trembled, hurriedly covering up the strange expression on his face, and said with a smile: "Shizhong, just say it."
Li Xingchen pretended not to see King Gu Ye's expression and said calmly: "Now that the Pu people have come to surrender, as long as I can settle them down, it is conceivable that more Ba people will come from the mountains in the future."
Come out, and this means that I need more food..."
King Gu Ye was not a fool. Li Xingchen had already said what he said. How could he not understand? He nodded hurriedly: "Don't worry, Shizhong. I'm going to return to Jingzhou now. I'll meet General Hussar."
If you tell me the details, I think the general will do his best to help Shizhong. I will definitely bring enough food in the shortest possible time."
Li Xingchen glanced at Gu Yewang with admiration. Among his subordinates, the only person with prestige and connections was Gu Yewang. Xiao Shilian, Pei Zilie, Dai Cai, Tang Yishun and others obviously did not have this.
Qualifications. What's more, from another perspective, Gu Yewang's gentle and steady personality is obviously more suitable than Xiao Shilian and others.
Even if Xiao Mohe really has his own considerations and wants to delay the supply of food and grass, it will be easier for King Gu Ye to persuade him. If Xiao Shilian is allowed to go, he will definitely not dare to really argue with his father.
Xiao Shilian looked at Li Xingchen and Gu Yewang with some worry. Of course, he couldn't say anything at this time. He could only sigh secretly in his heart. When things have developed to this level, even his father cannot be completely trusted.
Xiao Shilian knew clearly in his heart that his father was loyal to the East Palace and the court. If the court really wanted to deal with Li Xingchen, it was not impossible for his father to disobey the order. Now Li Xingchen asked King Gu Ye to go, whether it was from Gu Ye
Wang, the governor of Jingzhou - of course, as long as Xiao Mohe is in Jingzhou, this is a useless title - he is the most suitable in terms of his identity and King Gu Ye's ability.
"This is just one of them," Li Xingchen said with a smile, "there is another thing that I have to go to."
King Gu Ye was a little surprised, and Li Xingchen immediately said: "These Ba people have been in the mountains for a long time, and most of them lack education. Otherwise, they would not have been able to cause trouble in Bashu a few years ago. Therefore, after the Ba people come down from the mountain one after another, they should naturally write poems and etiquette
Only by educating their people and making them no different from our Han people can they become ordinary civilians."
This time not only Gu Yewang, but even Xiao Shilian was shocked.
Civilize the Ba people?
Li Xingchen's thinking is too imaginative, and this is obviously a posture that relies on Bajun to not leave!
King Gu Ye suddenly said nonchalantly: "Shizhong, poetry, books and etiquette belong to my Chinese clan..."
In the eyes of celebrities in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, poetry, calligraphy, etiquette, etc. were of course things that only the upper class could learn, and even those from poor families were not qualified to learn them, let alone barbarians. Later, when the sinicization trend in the Northern Dynasties began and a large number of poor scholars relied on their
With the rise of their own abilities, this concept began to change, but at least in the Southern Dynasties, they could only accept the Chinese Han people learning poetry and etiquette, and this was also the reason why the scholars in the Southern Dynasties felt that the biggest moral difference between themselves and the Northern Dynasties people was
The advantage lies in.
Many people are even proud of it.
And now Li Xingchen actually wants to use poems, books and etiquette to educate the Ba people, that is, barbarians in the traditional sense? Not to mention King Gu Ye, even Xiao Shilian, who has always claimed that he is "not afraid of heaven and earth", finds it a bit incredible.
I even wonder if Li Xingchen has become crazy in order to win over the Ba people.
But Li Xingchen nodded solemnly, indicating that the two of them heard correctly: "China has always been a 'land of etiquette', and since the people in our land of China should be of the Chinese ethnic group, but poetry and etiquette
Now only the Han people have it, and the rest of the barbarians cannot learn and master it. How can China be called a 'land of etiquette'?"
King Gu Ye frowned slightly, but did not speak. He always felt that something was wrong, but he had to admit that what Li Xingchen said made sense.
"What's more, has Mr. Gu ever thought about what kind of kindness it is to educate the people?" Li Xingchen smiled slightly. He still knew very well what these scholars wanted.
Duke Gu and the others who came with Duke Gu to teach them may even build a temple to offer sacrifices to Duke Gu a hundred years later. From then on, there will be constant incense and blood for the descendants!"
King Gu Ye was stunned for a moment, his expression kept changing, and his heart was obviously shaken.
If the first reason was not enough to convince him, then Li Xinchen's second reason made it impossible for him to refuse. Leaving a name in history, setting up a temple to offer sacrifices, and educating a party... these are all important to the half-buried Gu.
The Wild King still has an irresistible temptation, let alone the others.
This is the biggest pursuit of a scholar besides attending the palace and worshiping the prime minister!
Now Li Xingchen cannot satisfy King Gu Ye's dream of ascending to the throne and becoming prime minister, but he can satisfy his dream of enlightenment!
Xiao Shilian also vaguely understood Li Xingchen's intentions at this time, and couldn't help but smile slightly, but he was also a little worried. After all, if Li Xingchen wanted to do this, he had to get King Gu Ye to agree first. Li Xingchen made a reassuring gesture towards Xiao Shilian,
Still looking at Gu Yewang calmly, he understood what kind of decision Gu Yewang would make.
King Gu Ye's frown finally relaxed. The old man waved his sleeves and said with emotion: "Don't worry about this, Shizhong. I have been in the officialdom for many years, and I still have some unlucky close friends and disciples. As long as you
Once the Ba people are settled, I can educate them well."
These words were resounding, and Xiao Shilian breathed a sigh of relief. Now that King Gu Ye had said it, it meant that he was firmly on Li Xingchen's boat.
The smile on Li Xingchen's face faded and he solemnly held his hand.
