Chapter 874 Confucius Institute(1/2)
Records of the Grand Historian. The family of Confucius records the relevant situations of Confucius' descendants.
Sun Zisi was an important successor of Confucianism, while Zisi's descendants served as prime minister of Wei.
In other words, during the Qin Dynasty, the development of Confucianism was suppressed to a certain extent, but in the Han Dynasty, there was a retaliatory rebound.
Not only did Emperor Wu of Han respect Confucianism alone, Emperor Yuan of Han also directly awarded the title of Confucius family in Qufu.
No wonder Sima Qian sighed: There are countless people in the world from kings to wise men, but they are often brilliant when they are alive and no longer famous after their death.
The Confucius family, each generation of descendants, is closely linked to the times and the inheritance of Confucianism, and can be said to be the trendsetter of the times.
Even if Li Tang considered himself a descendant of Taoist Li Er and vigorously promoted Taoism in the Tang Dynasty, he could not eliminate the influence of Confucianism.
Therefore, Kong Yingda's position in the court is still very special.
"There is no surprise in my dictionary. Everything in the world, whether it is something that falls, the sun rises from the east and sets from the west, or the tide rises and falls, has its own rules to follow, and there is no accident to follow."
Li Kuan didn't want to be suppressed by the momentum of Kong Yingda, so he broke the atmosphere in a mess.
But Kong Yingda couldn't say anything.
"I have also read several issues of the science magazine of Guanshishan Academy. Although the things in it are mostly based on strange and lewd skills, they cannot be said to be completely unreasonable and meaningless. However, I am here today not to discuss with you which is right or which is wrong, science or Confucianism, but to discuss a cooperation with His Highness the King of Chu!"
It was obvious that I came here to ask for help, but when I got to Kong Yingda's mouth, my meaning changed.
"cooperate?"
This time, Li Kuan was really a little surprised.
This guy Kong Yingda is simply a stone in the pit, hard and smelly.
Are you willing to talk to yourself about cooperation today?
Li Kuan couldn't help but look up at the sky, confirming that the sun was still rising from the east and setting from the west.
However, despite his surprise, Li Kuan soon began to think about what Kong Yingda wanted to cooperate with.
"That's right! I think His Highness, the King of Chu, should be interested in this cooperation!"
As Kong Yingda finished speaking, Gu Panpan and Wu Meiniang looked at each other in a glance.
Both of them thought Kong Yingda came to find fault, but they didn't expect that they came to discuss cooperation.
This situation is a bit unexpected.
"Kong Jijiu, if I remember correctly, few students from the Imperial College can like Guanshishan Academy, right? What you are talking about today is to ask His Highness the King of Chu to instruct the players of Gu's luggage team to deliberately lose a few goals to you in the next game, right? Or let you score a goal too?"
Although Gu Panpan is quite well-behaved in front of Li Kuan and Wu Meiniang, it is completely different when he meets others.
Even if it is a person like Kong Yingda, she will just say quarrel.
But Kong Yingda didn't have much to say about this kind of thing.
With his status and status, he argued with a female actor like Gu Panpan. No matter whether he won or lost in the end, he actually lost.
However, his failure to argue with Gu Panpan does not mean that Lu Xuan does not argue either.
"Miss Gu, you are judging a gentleman's ambition with a villain. Football is just a small path after all. No matter whether our Fanyang Mabu team loses or wins, it doesn't matter. Today my master came to discuss cooperation with His Highness the King of Chu. That is the big path, not something you can participate in." The fastest update is computer::/
"Hmph! Is it still a small path? You can't even handle the small path. What kind of a big path is interesting?"
Gu Panpan was naturally very unhappy with Lu Xuan's words.
"I wonder what cooperation Kong Jijiu wants to talk to me about?"
Li Kuan's words interrupted the atmosphere of Gu Panpan and Lu Xuan continuing to quarrel.
"Can Your Highness the King of Chu speak with one step?"
Kong Yingda looked at the movements around him, obviously not wanting everyone to know the specific content of his conversation with Li Kuan.
Li Kuan will naturally meet such a small request.
So before Wang Xuanwu could say anything, Li Kuan signaled him not to speak.
It is impossible for Kong Yingda to transform himself into an assassin to assassin Li Kuan?
So, soon, everyone made an empty area for Li Kuan and Kong Yingda.
"Kong Jijiu, what's the matter with me? You can tell me now?"
"I heard that His Highness the King of Chu intends to encourage the students of Guanshishan Academy to go overseas and barbarians to promote and educate. I wonder if this matter is serious?"
After hearing Kong Yingda's question, Li Kuan smiled on his face.
He didn't need to say anything else, Li Kuan had already guessed the purpose of Kong Yingda coming today.
Compared with the victory or defeat of Gu's Hugging Team and Fan Yang Mabu Team, this matter is countless times more important.
No wonder Kong Yingda didn't even care about the results of today's competition.
"That's right, it's true! Could the cooperation that Kong Jijiu mentioned refers to this matter?"
A meaningless grasp will not generate any special benefits except for being unpleasant.
Li Kuan naturally would not refuse to cooperate in order to grasp Kong Yingda.
Objectively speaking, it is in line with Li Kuan's idea of proclaiming Confucianism overseas.
With the strength of the Tang Dynasty, today, whether it is Silla Baekje or Japan, they will be obedient.
But it is hard to say whether they are willing to be obedient all the time.
There are also those Hu people in the northern grassland. If they want to completely incorporate these places into the rule of the Tang Dynasty, the best way is to assimilate them.
The other roles of Confucianism may not be so obvious, but they still have some skills in assimilating Hu people.
Of course, the Confucianism that Li Kuan hoped to spread in these places was Confucianism after further castration.
There is a dispute between science and Confucianism in the Tang Dynasty, so there is no need to argue so hard in other places. Just study Confucianism well.
"Yes, what do Your Highness the King of Chu think?"
Kong Yingda knew that Li Kuan was a smart person and did not need to talk nonstop to explain the benefits of cooperation between the two parties.
So I asked about my intention to cooperate simply and clearly.
It is only meaningful to discuss other things when both parties have the intention to cooperate.
Otherwise, if you waste your saliva and talk for a long time, then in the end, someone is not interested. What's the point?
"That's the intention! Confucius is the most sage teacher. We cannot just let the people of the Tang Dynasty bathe this kind of care, but also let more foreign barbarians enjoy Confucius' teachings. This king has a suggestion that the Imperial College, Guanshishan Academy, and even other Qujiang Academy and other colleges join hands to form a new academy."
"Build a new academy?"
Li Kuan's proposal is a bit beyond Kong Yingda's idea.
"Yes, to form a new college, it is called Confucius Institute!"
Li Kuan's words made Kong Yingda overjoyed.
Confucius Institute, this is something I have always dreamed of.
Before this, he did not dare to raise such a topic. Now Li Kuan has taken the initiative to join forces with various academies to build Confucius Academy.
As the name suggests, the main content of this academy is definitely to teach Confucian classics.
If the construction is really successful, then I will be a hero of the Confucius family and an important inheritor of Confucianism.
"Your Highness, I am old, but I can't stand the joke."
Kong Yingda said this tremblingly, obviously still a little unbelievable that there was something that had fallen from the sky.
This King of Chu is not as difficult to communicate as everyone imagined. It seems that everyone has misunderstood him before.
What is scientific and unscientific, Kong Yingda has now selectively ignored it.
Since there is no way to deal with science, don’t take a way to save it.
Now Li Kuan has taken the initiative to extend an olive branch. If he still worries about science, he will definitely not be able to get it.
"Kong Jijiu, do you think I'm joking?"
When Li Kuan spoke, his eyes looked at Kong Yingda.
In the eyes of people in the distance, the two must be having a fierce confrontation.
Whether it was Wang Xuanwu or Lu Xuan, they were staring at this place nervously, afraid that something would happen.
Kong Yingda listened to Li Kuan's words, took a deep breath, calmed down his mood, and then continued: "Your Highness, King of Chu, can you tell me in detail about how this Confucius Institute is preparing for the establishment of the constitution?"
Before I knew it, Kong Yingda no longer had "old man" and was relying on his old age.
"In fact, it is also very simple. We first planned to build a small Confucius Institute in Chang'an City, build the structure to train teaching teachers for Confucius Institutes in various places. Then we first built the first batch of Confucius Institutes in five places including South Goguryeo, North Goguryeo, Silla, Baekje and Japan. All the teaching and teaching materials were transported from Chang'an City.
After that, we will build several Confucius Institutes in the Mobei Grassland and the Western Regions, and we can also build several Confucius Institutes in Nanyang and Australia simultaneously. After the Confucius Institutes in various places are completed, we will immediately add several branches in the area according to the same model, and strive to complete the construction of the Confucius Institutes in thirty years within three years."
"Thirty, so go?"
Kong Yingda felt a little dizzy.
This happiness came so suddenly.
I thought that building a Confucius Institute was a historical breakthrough, but I didn’t expect there were thirty ones.
