Chapter 808 Wang Xuance's Problem
"Dean, I'm back." He greeted Wang Xuance as soon as he met him.

"Hurry up and be free, haha... I've been waiting for you for a long time. Let's go inside and talk." Yue Shan said happily.

After coming to the hall, the host and guest sat down, and Wang Xuance said gratefully again: "Without the cultivation of the headmaster, the students would not be where they are today."

"Your own efforts are the most important thing. I already knew that you have great talent, but it was beyond my expectation to be able to persuade Baekje Neifu." Yue Shan praised.

"It's just a fluke, I didn't even expect the Baekje Society to be attached." Wang Xuance said.

He narrated the process of persuading Baekje Neibei.

It is also necessary to go back to the battle of Li Shimin's destruction of Goguryeo. Although Baekje was not wiped out at that time, the officials and garrison of the Tang Dynasty knew what he had done and were very hostile to him.

It should be said that after the fall of Goguryeo, Baekje was surrounded by enemies and had no allies, and Silla, who had a deadly feud, bullied him whenever he saw the sky. In this case, one can imagine how sad their life is.

Speaking of it, Baekje King Fuyu Yici is also a capable person. He suppressed the opposition in the team to strengthen the royal power, and he rarely lost in foreign wars. He rode on the head of Silla.

But everyone has shortcomings. Fuyu Yici's shortcoming is arrogance and self-willedness. Ever since he was beaten by Datang, he began to abandon himself and become licentious.

It didn't take long before he died in the woman's arms amidst grief, anger and indulgence.

Prince Fu Yuxiao also wanted to do something after succeeding to the throne, but it was a pity that the Tang Dynasty did not give him this opportunity at all.

Wang Xuance offered a plan to send all the people who were suppressed and exiled by Fuyu Yici back to Baekje. After these people regained power, they began to take revenge on the royal family.

Relying on the capital left by his father and the righteous name of the ruler, Fu Yuxiao gradually gained the upper hand.

The enmity between the two sides is as deep as the sea, and there is no possibility of explaining it. The opposition, who are about to fail again, have adopted extreme methods this time.

Fuyu Xiao was assassinated.

At this time, Wang Xuance reappeared, and in his capacity as the suzerain state, he turned to clean up the most violent opposition faction.The charges are ready-made, assassinating the king.

Datang took action himself, and the rest of the opposition did not dare to make further trouble.

Wang Xuance also supported Fu Yuxiao's son to become the king of Baekje, but he was only a few years old and didn't understand anything, so the queen mother supervised the country.

The latter is a bit shady, a trick that countless people have used in history, beauty trick/beauty trick.

Based on the Queen Mother's personality, Wang Xuance found a man who fully met her aesthetic standards and sent her to her side.

The Queen Mother, who lost her husband in her youth, couldn't stand her loneliness and fell into the trap successfully.

Then the pillow blows and blows.

What is so great about Tang Dynasty, being a nobleman of Tang Dynasty is more comfortable than being the king of Baekje.

The opposition is powerful, and now Datang deters them from moving. If one day Datang ignores these people, they will definitely rebel, and your orphans and widows will end up miserable.

Even if the opposition does not rebel, Baekje will not escape the fate of being destroyed on all sides.

In addition to analyzing the situation and expressing feelings to her, we will always be sneaky when you are the Queen Mother, and we can be together if you include Datang.

The queen mother can't remarry, but noble women can. Most of the noble women in the Tang Dynasty remarried.

After operating like this for a period of time, the young queen mother was really moved.

After Fuyu Yici and Fuyu Xiao's father and son killed the backbone of Baekje, and Wang Xuance took care of a group, there was not much left.

Coupled with the fact that Datang has been continuously exporting culture to surrounding vassal states over the years, admiration for Datang is a worldwide trend, and Baekje is no exception.

When she revealed this idea to the outside world, surprisingly, there were not many people who opposed it, and the few opposition parties were quickly wiped out by Wang Xuance secretly.

Then the things attached to Baekje became like this.

After listening to this process, Yue Shan couldn't help feeling that beauty tricks/handsome tricks are a time-tested magic skill.

This trick seems to have been used in the Nanyue Kingdom during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, but it is a pity that the envoys of the Han Dynasty at that time were scared and did not dare to do it at a critical moment, resulting in the failure of the plan.

This time Wang Xuance was not soft-handed, decisively dealt with all the opponents, and the rest were either indifferent or dared not say anything.

In fact, it is useless for them to say anything. What Tang wants is a name, and the king can take over Baekje in minutes.

The previous plan of the imperial court was to keep Baekje and Silla infighting, and Datang would reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Time has changed and the situation has changed. Datang has digested the four ways of Liaodong, so there is no need to balance the forces of all parties.

It is in the best interests of the Tang Dynasty to eliminate these vassal states on the main roads one by one, so it is a good thing for Baekje and Tamna to be attached.

"In a complicated situation, you can accurately find the opponent's weaknesses and attack them, and achieve the greatest results at the lowest cost. You have done a very good job." Yue Shan couldn't help boasting again.

"The dean doesn't think it's good that my method doesn't stand out," Wang Xuance said.

"I'm not such a pedantic person. From the perspective of the country, it doesn't matter the means, as long as it is beneficial to the country in the end." Yue Shan said with a smile:
"By the way, the two surrounding countries are attached to it. How will Silla react?"

Wang Xuance hurriedly said: "Speaking of Silla, the students have some doubts and want to ask the principal for advice."

Yue Shan said: "Oh, what doubts?"

Wang Xuance said: "Silla is more pro-Tang. In the beginning, we promoted Chinese civilization in Silla very smoothly, and the people there were also very willing to accept our knowledge."

"The scholars and dignitaries in their country also admire Datang very much, and even expressed the idea of ​​returning to Datang, but their attitude changed after a short while."

"Ordinary people are still the same as before, but they are mainly scholars and the powerful class. They began to alienate us and even resist our cultural transmission."

Yue Shan thought for a while and said: "After all, Silla is also a great country that has been passed down for hundreds of years. It is normal to have a group of loyal ministers. Maybe they secretly connected with each other and influenced other people's thinking."

Wang Xuance shook his head and said, "I thought so too at first, so I did a private investigation and found no similar organization."

"There is another doubt. Even if there is such an organization, it is impossible to affect so many people at the same time."

"Most of the dignitaries and scholars who were originally friendly to us have changed their attitudes, especially the group of scholars, and their attitudes have changed even more."

"If there is really an organization that can have such a big influence and hide it so deeply, it would be too scary."

Yue Shan immediately grasped the point of his words: "You said that the group that has changed the most is the scholars? Does it mean that the more books you read, the more educated you are, the more you will change?"

Wang Xuance hurriedly said: "Yes, that's the case, have you found the reason?"

Yue Shan nodded slightly and said, "I have speculated, but I'm not sure yet. Let me ask you a few questions."

Wang Xuance said solemnly: "You ask."

Yue Shan asked: "When you communicate with Silla people, do you always talk about 'Tang people' and 'Silla people'?"

Wang Xuance nodded, and asked doubtfully, "Is there a problem?"

Yue Shan sighed and said, "The problem is getting serious. I'm asking you a question, do you treat people differently when you interact with Silla people?"

Wang Xuance nodded again: "This...we are Tang people and they are Silla people. It is normal to treat them differently. They also treat us differently."

Yue Shan shook his head and said, "That's where the problem lies. Have you ever noticed a problem? Silla people really hope to be treated fairly by Datang."

"Not only people from Silla, but people from all vassal states hope to receive the same fair treatment as people from Tang."

Wang Xuance said as a matter of course: "That's true, my Great Tang is a kingdom of heaven, and they are just aliens, so naturally they admire my Great Tang."

Yue Shan said: "Yes, it is your attitude that caused the resistance of the Silla people."

Wang Xuance said in surprise, "Ah? This...why?"

Yue Shandao: "When the Great Tang Dynasty appeared as a conqueror and divided each group into classes and attributes, it would inevitably cause resistance from knowledgeable groups."

Seeing that he was still in a daze, Yue Shan said: "Let's put it this way, when you call them 'Silla people', you will also become a 'Tang people' in their eyes."

"When you treat Tang people and Silla people differently, it will further deepen this concept and eventually put the two groups against each other."

"Ordinary people don't understand anything and don't have deep feelings. The more scholars know, the more they know, the deeper and clearer they understand the two concepts of 'Tang people' and 'Silla people'."

"Your differential treatment has gradually implanted the concept of 'Silla people' into the hearts of Silla people."

"You are from Tang Dynasty and I am from Silla. Why should I listen to you? Why should I go to your country to be an inferior person?"

"My Silla country has its own history, its own culture, its own ancestors and inheritance..."

"The purpose of my writing about Chinese civilization is to let people all over the world know where our common ground is, and only with common ground can we achieve great integration."

"This is also the reason why the people in the vassal states were friendly to you at the beginning, because everyone is descended from China."

"But your differential treatment is telling them with the facts that although we are all descendants of China, we are still different. You are from Tang Dynasty, we are from Silla."

Wang Xuance showed a thoughtful expression, but he was still a little puzzled: "But many times we distinguish between Tang people and Silla people to take care of them."

Yue Shan retorted: "Why take care of them? Do they need your care? What they need is fair treatment."

"Only when you treat them as descendants of China and Tang people, will they treat you as one of their own."

"Your differential treatment is deepening the rift between the two sides, so the Silla people will dislike you more and more, and the more people read, the more dislike you. Do you understand now?"

Wang Xuance finally showed an expression of enlightenment: "Students understand, thank you, Dean, for clarifying."

In fact, this is not what Yue Shan thought of himself, but what the Western colonists in his previous life told him through history.

Everyone knows the concept of nation, but few people know that this concept was born only one or two hundred years ago. It was created by Western colonists to divide and rule colonies.

Then there will be countless more ethnic groups in the world, and there will be ethnic conflicts that cannot be resolved.

It is precisely because of the narrow thinking of Westerners that the term national integration has become history.

From the day when Western colonists stepped on the earth, there are more confrontations, hatred, and killings among nations than integration.

This is the greatest contribution of Western civilization to the earth.

Once the island country invaded China and carried out colonial rule in the three eastern provinces, they divided the people there into three, six, and nine classes.

They also set up schools to force Chinese children to learn the written culture of the island country, trying to enslave the Chinese people culturally.

However, the end result is that people who read more are more opposed to the aggressors.

The reason is very simple. The three-six-six-six-six class of the islanders is to tell the Chinese people that we are different.

We are superior and you are inferior.We are the conquerors and you are the conquered.

Reading makes people sensible, even if they read island books.Personal experience told them that the islanders were invaders.

The more they read, the more they can understand this truth, so they have to stand up and resist.

The island country has established a cadre training class in the three northeastern provinces, enjoying the same treatment as the island people, and they can become officials when they come out, but these people will soon become red.

There were a total of sixty people in this class. The islanders thoroughly investigated the Reds, and found eighteen in the first wave. Later, they became angry and had no choice but to cancel the class.

Everyone's first impression when watching film and television works is that there are many traitors and so on. There are indeed many second devils, but the second devils who are really loyal to the invaders are all hooligans.

There are also scholars who will become second devils, but most of them will not really work hard.

So... On the cliff of Zhang Guoshi is a "parallel world spy movie", which cannot be said to have nothing to do with the original history, but has nothing to do with it.

Because anyone who has known the history of the Puppet Manchukuo knows that the slightly more important institutions are personally held by the islanders, and they do not trust the people of the country.

But in this play, those two devils are more zero zero seven than Zero Zero Seven, which is pure nonsense.

Zhang Guoshi himself is aware of this, so he bluntly stated in an interview with rmrb that this is a step-by-step spy film shot with modernist techniques.

The purpose is to let modern people understand the beliefs of people at that time... This point is passed down from generation to generation and conveyed very accurately. Although the setting of this drama is very nonsense, the core idea is indeed conveyed in place.

Our ancestors paid countless sacrifices to achieve today's independence and peace.

That's a long way off... The topic is back to the beginning.

At this time, Datang is playing the role of a conqueror, but you can't put this posture on your face, otherwise it will only arouse the disgust of others.

If you want great national integration, you must abandon your bloodlines. Tang people, Turkic people, Khitan people, Silla people... are all nonsense.

We are all descendants of Chinese civilization, this is the core idea.

When the integration is successful, you don't need to emphasize it, everyone will regard themselves as Tang people.

This truth must be told to everyone, otherwise it will slow down the pace of national integration, and even have a greater impact when contacting the West in the future.

Thinking of this, Yue Shan said: "It's not enough for you to understand yourself, but let everyone understand."
