sweeping the world

Chapter 714 It's almost an exhibition
Not all southerners were isolated from the court, it was those groups who did not interact with the Han when the Han army went south...or for a long time after that, so they had no place in the officialdom.

For scholars, they are absolutely unwilling to be isolated from the court, which means that their lives will lose meaning, their families will not be able to develop, and even worries will arise.After all, the best shortcut for any family in any civilization to develop a family is to have power. After mastering power, there are many convenient means to grow the family.

Not to mention other civilizations for the time being, the smooth way for the Zhuxia civilization to develop and grow the family is to become an official, and the family can be developed with power in hand.There are too many examples of this that can be found by looking through history books. Too many people who were originally worthless immediately turned around after becoming official.

Of course, having power cannot guarantee absolute security, but without power, there is no security.For aristocratic families, their safety is to be tied to the ruler and become a part of the ruling class, and they must not become marginal figures.

Before Yuan Shuo six years ago, it was not very difficult to become an official in the Han Dynasty. The difficulty was to keep the official position and even get promoted after becoming an official.

After the sixth year of Yuanshuo, because the officialdom was saturated to a certain extent, it became difficult to obtain an official position again.This is true for those who have the opportunity to enter the officialdom, but it is even more difficult for those who have no opportunity to enter the officialdom, such as some people who were too arrogant in the past.

"They seem to have made a mistake." Liu Yan didn't know whether to be dumbfounded or not: "The widow's promulgation of the recruitment order is not to select scholars."

It was Liu Yan who didn't understand. In any recruitment order, someone would be prosperous, and there was no conflict with listening to the opinions of educated people.If someone's opinions are recognized, they must be appreciated. Once appreciated, they must be used, and if they want to be used, they must be given an official position. Isn't that the case?

Martingale, a former defender of the state, was useless in the state of Wei. Knowing that the king of Qin was looking for talents, he succeeded in attracting the king of Qin with his own ideas and theories. .He also did not live up to Qin Xiaogong Ying Quliang's expectations and values. The reform made Qin State stronger, changed the decadent situation of Qin State before, and laid the foundation for Qin State to sweep all over the world.

Another example is the Yan State during the Warring States Period. Le Yi first served as an official in Zhao State but was not reused. After the starvation of King Zhao Wuling, he left Zhao State for Wei State, but he did not serve as an official in Wei State. Later, I heard that Yan Wangji He was appointed to cast gold in Taiwan and recruited sages, and he was worshiped as a general. He accomplished the great cause of attacking Qi with all the people, and led the five-nation coalition to conquer more than [-] cities in Qi. Qiang's famous battle example, avenged Qiang Qi's attack on Yan.

There are too many examples. Basically, it is their own ideas and theories (capability) that impress the ruler. As a result, they become important ministers of the country, and they have done great things and left their names in the history.

It's not that cultural people can't clear up what the recruitment order represents. It's that someone is likely to step on the ladder to the sky from now on. Pens are infinitely attractive to cultural people.

The recruitment order means to use only the talents. The result of Liu Yan’s words is that the people who heard them were surprised and puzzled, but no one would say anything. Hold you as the boss, as long as you like it, etc. attitude, and even a little gloating.

"There are more than three hundred people who came to Chang'an for the recruitment order." Cui Zong seemed to be a little short-sighted. He raised the list in his hand a little, lowered his head a little, read some people's names, and then summarized: " Scholars from the north accounted for [-]%, scholars from the south accounted for [-]%, and the rest came from the frontiers.”

A place that can be called a frontier is really remote and desolate. The current frontiers of Han are the Northeast, Grassland, Peninsula, Lingnan and Indochina Peninsula.It is a very strange thing for the present age that scholars can still appear in such places. It is hard to say whether they are the families that ran out to escape the war.

"In addition to scholars, there are novice monks, warlocks and monks." Cui Zong has a reason for separating novice monks from monks. The current novice monks are real monks, and monks are some ascetics (ascetic monks).He paused before continuing: "People from foreign countries also request participation from the Hongru Hall."

Another point is that warlocks are actually Taoist priests, but nowadays Taoist priests specifically refer to people who are very good at maintaining health. Warlocks are really used to refer to religious people.

No dynasty knows if there will be a recruitment order promulgated by the king himself. No matter how much attention is paid, even the paralyzed people will crawl over to participate. Those who have already arrived in Chang'an are still on the way more.

"They..." Liu Yan was referring to novice monks, monks and warlocks: "Why are you joining in the fun?"

Religion was not prohibited in the Han Dynasty, but it is impossible to let religion spread unscrupulously. In some respects, it is a state of suppressing Buddhism, but it does not support Taoism.

At present, there is no Taoism in the true sense. It should be said that the period of Wuhuranhua and the Southern and Northern Dynasties was the stage when Taoism was really formed. Fengshen, and then create some mysterious fairy tales based on real events.

If he can support the Taoist religion, Liu Yan will definitely support the Taoist religion. It has little to do with personal feelings. The main reason is that the figures who are deified by the Taoist religion are all ancestors who have contributed to the Xia Dynasty. It is better to worship your own ancestors. In the past, we believed in some foreign illusory gods.Furthermore, Zhuxia civilization originally had the idea of ​​worshiping ancestors.

In the Central Plains Dynasty, religion has always represented danger, and there were too many religious riots in the early Han Dynasty.The most famous one is of course the Yellow Turban Uprising, and the Five Dou Rice Religion ruled the area, and there was even a guy who believed in Buddha who was chanting Buddha No. 1 and carried out massacres in the south.All kinds of examples show that getting involved with a religion means losing control, but the government is absolutely unwilling to see this.

"At the end of the Han Dynasty, the evil of Ruo Rong was hard to describe."

The Ruo Rong mentioned by Sang Yu was a fanatical Buddhist during the Three Kingdoms period.

"Huh? The first person from the Central Plains who wants to establish a Buddhist kingdom?"

Liu Yan really knew who Ruo Rong was, and what happened, it was probably the first time Buddhism lay down a gun in the Central Plains.

Ruo Rong was originally a small local warlord with an armed force of tens of thousands of people.But in troubled times, this small number of people probably won't make much noise, so it's better to find a big tree to enjoy the shade.Therefore, Ruo Rong took his subordinates to seek refuge with Zhao Yu, the sheriff of Guangling County at that time.

Zhao Yu is a sincere person, thinking that Ruo Rong is sincerely loyal to him, he treats him as a distinguished guest, and holds a grand banquet to entertain him.As for Ruo Rong, seeing that Guangling County was rich in resources and people, and seeing profit and righteousness abandoned, he actually beheaded Zhao Yu at the banquet and took over Guangling County.

It is not a good thing for Ruo Ronggan's dove to occupy the magpie's nest, but if Guangling County can be managed well, at least it is not too bad.But Ruo Rong was a rough man and didn't know how to manage it. He even ordered his soldiers to kill, burn and loot Guangling County.Other than Zhao Yu, Xue Li, the chief of Moling, and Zhu Hao, the chief of Yuzhang, were the ones who were murdered by him. As for the people under his rule, there were countless people who were harassed by him.

The reason why Liu Yan said that Ruo Rong wanted to establish a Buddha-1 country was that it was recorded in history that Ruo Rong himself and his thugs were killing people while calling Buddha No. 1, shouting Buddha No. People go to the Paradise of Paradise in the west to build a kingdom of bliss on earth.

What happened at the end of the Han Dynasty is too far away from the present, and people who are not well-read will never know about it, but what happened after the collapse of the Western Jin Dynasty is not far away.

"We already know that Buddhism is Ah San's theology." Sang Yu is still very concerned about Ah San's affairs, after all, the Han Kingdom is at war with the Gupta Dynasty.He briefly introduced the birth of Buddhism, and then said: "It has been confirmed that Buddhism has completely declined in Asan, and it has been replaced by Hinduism."

The birthplace of Buddhism was Kapilavatthu in ancient India (one of the many states at that time), and it began to prosper when the prince of the country gave up the throne to focus on Buddhism, but it did not flourish for many years before being hit hard.

Buddhism was introduced to the Central Plains around AD. Only a handful of scholars had contact with it, and it was rare for ordinary people to come into contact with a novice monk.

At present, the areas with the greatest influence of Buddhism are in the countries of the Western Regions, and the influence in the Central Plains is still at the stage of five chaos.They also built quite a lot of temples at this stage. To some extent, the architecture of Zhuxia was influenced by Buddhism, such as the "flying eaves", "auspicious beasts" and "span" of the roof, etc. aspect.

"The sinner Hu Jin (Wu Jin) spoke to Shi Hu, so there was an order to kill the Han." Ran Min had the most say on this. More than a million people died at his hands."

The spread of Buddhism at the current stage is taking a high-level route. It cannot be said that the entire Buddhism is bad, just like people are divided into good and bad. For example, Hu Jin dared to do and say anything in order to curry favor with Shihu. Fotucheng has been guiding people to be good.

Generally speaking, as far as Buddhism is concerned at the current stage, whether it is before or in the following hundreds of years, what some Buddhist disciples have done is really not like human affairs.There was Hu Jin who encouraged Shihu to kill all the Han people, and later Buddhism engaged in usury wantonly, and then he dared to repeatedly kill the ruler.Whether it is for the country or the people, Buddhism at this stage is really not doing much better.

Liu Yan still knows that the Buddhist 1 Church has evolved repeatedly, and it is the main body of guiding people to be good, talking about reincarnation to make this world endure, but this change is to please the ruler.He knows one more thing, not only people are good or bad, everything has two sides, the difference is how to use it.

"Recruiting talents, anyone who thinks they have the ability can come." What Ji Chang said is that those religious people cannot be driven away at all.What he attaches the most importance to is: "How are foreigners treated?"

Those people from foreign countries, they still understand what the recruitment order promulgated by the king means to Zhuxia civilization, so they want to join it shyly.

"If you are a scholar, you are naturally welcome." Liu Yan didn't feel far-fetched: "Didn't you say that stones from other mountains can be used to attack jade?"

Ji Chang saluted to express his understanding.

“祆1教、基1督1教、众1神1教……”吕议摸着下巴：“也能参加？”

Speaking of Zoroastrianism, Huan Wen sent a lot of Zoroastrians on the recent return fleet, including the Zoroastrian saint Pars Alizoa, and that's not all One saint, there are as many as sixteen saints.

The Zoroastrians were not happy to present saintesses to Huan Wen, but if they could give Liu Yan a concubine, let alone sixteen saints, they would be willing to pay for more.

Coincidentally, the Romans were also transporting women to the mainland of Han. Even now, Christianity does not have the "profession" of saints, and they sent some noble women.

The so-called religion of the gods is the religion of the Nordic gods. The current three major barbarians, the Germans, Celts, and Slavs, all believe in this god system. The difference is that each will add own god.Frank, Burgundy, and Alemanni are incapable of contacting the country, otherwise they would definitely send women to the mainland of Han.

“没希腊众1神1教？”刘彦还真不知道罗马现在抛弃奥林匹克众神，事实上罗马人也没抛弃，就是君士坦提乌斯治下在搞1基1督1教普及罢了。他笑着说：“奥林匹克众神的圣女很出名的。”

All the ministers looked at each other in blank dismay. Of course they knew that those crooked nuts were giving their lives to send beautiful women. It seemed that their king was also very interested. The royal lineage is mixed.

At least before the Wuhu Chaohua, Zhuxia civilization did not worry about the mixed blood of the royal family (royal family), nor did it necessarily require heirs to only have the blood of Zhuxia. That would only happen after the "dark age". Otherwise, Sun Quan This half-breed will not be able to become a ruler.

It must be said that Liu Yan did not make the woman who sent Wai Guo Ren his concubine, but he slept with a few of them, including Parsi Alizoya, whom Huan Wen praised highly in his letter.He is not embarrassed at all. He has fulfilled his dream of sleeping with beauties from all over the world before traveling through time. After sleeping with her, she will be given a status, even if she is a concubine, she will be exempted from such high status.

Liu Yan not only slept by himself, but also consciously or unconsciously encouraged everyone to find more beauties from foreign countries. He forced himself on his ministers a lot, and even promised to collect beauties from all countries and ethnic groups.He did not suddenly become a pervert, but the male-to-female ratio in Han was too exaggerated, and the country also needed more people. If it wanted to have a population, it must have enough mothers, and he took the lead in recruiting beauties from other races.

"The Great Han has no state religion." Ji Chang was talking about the current status of the Han state: "The great Han does not need a state religion."

No one has any objection to this point. In Zhuxia civilization, royal power has always been greater than divine power.
