"The rise and fall of the family and the country come from time to time, so why do Wu people complain about Xi Shi.

If Xi Shi confided in Wu, who would come after the collapse of the Yue Kingdom? "

"Xi Shi": Luo Yin

—I am the dividing line —

Today, children under the Taiping Army either study in specialized institutions or work as child laborers in corresponding workshops; there is basically no other third option. Of course, this is not to squeeze their surplus value.

In fact, in order to ensure the basic rations required for the normal growth of these children, instead of prematurely destroying the corresponding positions, the Taiping Army will also provide corresponding morning and evening meals in disguised subsidies, and even continue to lose money.

But only in this way can they be freed from the poor and difficult family life, and participate in collective life from an early age to accept the influence and influence of the corresponding system, and eventually become the high-quality labor and potential source of the Taiping Army after reaching adulthood. Basic disk.

In the third edition, it is Luo Yin’s best and most adept life story/segment, full of jokes and curses in his life in a few words; and there are corresponding lines and pictures that are simple and clear.

Zhou Huai'an was already quite satisfied seeing this; but what surprised him even more was the fourth edition of the "Zhou Bone Mirror" column: it used the tone of past people and related practitioners to expose the past officials and traditional big-time officials. How to deceive the top and the bottom of the means and tricks, how to deceive the truth of goodness.

The fifth and sixth editions are mainly the display of the various construction achievements of the Taiping Army over the years, as well as the announcement of the use, region and labor involved in the corresponding engineering projects in the near future. Even soliciting rewards for corresponding solutions and suggestions.

For example, the Lingqu water transport from Lingxi to Hunan has already been saturated; it is about to become a bottleneck between the two large areas in the rear. Therefore, there are currently several different cost-effective options.

Either deep excavation and widening to increase overloaded shipping; or another route for diversion and transfer, or a way to optimize the fortune structure and enhance the efficiency of shipping on the original basis.

The seventh and eighth editions are all kinds of travel notes from foreign locals such as Tianzhu, Zhenla, Champa, Zhuan, etc. The main serialization of Du Huan’s "Jing Xing Ji" is intended to broaden the horizons of the corresponding audience. And cognitive needs.

The ninth and tenth editions are excerpts and excerpts translated from works such as medical art, literature, and history; the Arab world accounts for a large part of the space. The reason is also very simple, as one of the civilized circles that are enough to be side by side in the present age.

The ancient Wufang Tianzhu has been trapped in an obscure and chaotic rule of the princes for many years; since the Maurya, Ghaznavid, Gupta, Guishuang, and Jieri dynasties, many cultural treasures that were once lost have long since disappeared.

While the barbarians are raging on the European continent in the Dark Age, and only the outstanding light of civilization remains—Flynn (Eastern Rome), which is relatively overwhelming in terms of sea-way communication.

On the contrary, the Arab world of this era is still under the rule of the Abbasid dynasty at the end of the "Hundred Years of Translation Movement"; therefore, it is also the most open and inclusive period in the Arab world. The Wisdom Palace in Baghdad, the capital, known as the "City of Retribution," is still full of scholars of all faiths and ethnic groups;

They follow the so-called "seeking knowledge even as far as China" hadith, and strive to collect and translate knowledge and writings from various regions and civilizations on the Eurasian continent; and they represent that they are able to overwhelm their contemporaries and are under the monopoly of the church. , Is the light of civilization of the age that shrouded most of Europe in the Dark Age.

It was not until hundreds of years later that they were destroyed by the Mongol army that invaded Baghdad, but many cultural achievements handed down in this era (the Greek and Roman writings that have been lost with the barbarian rule in Europe), after the second biography, the three rivers In the fifth century, it once again became the link and foundation of the European Renaissance era.

At this time, as the sect advocated by the Abbasid dynasty, which was deeply influenced by Persianization, it was not the Sunni or Shia sect that was common in later generations, but was composed of many religious jurists; advocating asceticism and piety Worship, the isolated Sufism.

Therefore, as the corresponding extremist factions in the Arab world, whether they are Sunni or Shia, they have been severely hit and suppressed by the dynasty regime; the so-called holy descendants who have been known as the descendants of Mohammed in the past have been taken by Abba. The caliphs of Sri Lanka killed one crop after another.

Of course, this cannot conceal the cruel and arrogant side of the doctrine derived from the extreme environment of the desert people.

The so-called prohibition of idolatry by Desert Monotheism, like the iconoclastic movement on the European continent, is a two-faced thing and core; it prohibits people from contacting, learning, and creating. Art is the form of expression outside of religious norms, and anything that involves the spiritual world. Things.

According to the corresponding theory, only in an increasingly closed, boring, and monotonous environment, will the so-called faith become more pious and pure; and deprive the public of the potential to pursue aesthetics and artistic creativity, and focus its attention as much as possible. The limit is within the category of religious beliefs.

Just like when the Green Sect spread in the Western Regions, why did they massacre Buddhist monks wherever they went, demolish temples and use Buddha statues as the foundations of filthy places; why in modern times, the Taliban regime should ignore the appeals of the world , Destroy the Bamiyan Giant Buddha that has existed for more than a thousand years and seems to have nothing to do with it.

Because the creations of these foreign religions' heretical beliefs, the cultural spirit and historical meaning they carry, naturally shake the foundation of these doctrines spread from the desert.

When human knowledge becomes more and more extensive, the desire for thinking, reflection, and exploration will become more frequent, and the awe and piety for mysticism will become weaker. This is almost an irreversible result.

Astronomers such as Bruno who discovered the laws of celestial bodies went to the fire in Rome’s Campo de’ Fiori; there was the female scientist Hypatia who was killed by a clam shell by fanatical Christians; and was roasted to death by her own writings. In Geneva, Dr. Servetus, the discoverer of the pulmonary circulation.

Then in modern times, the green believers who wanted to rely on the wealth brought by oil to squeeze back into the international society from the margins of forgotten civilization also began various cruel performance art in the form of anti-social and humane forms. .

Therefore, what modern people see in ancient cities such as Balamir are the treasures handed down from ancient times and the crystallization of humanities and arts; but the princes and patriarchs who destroyed these murals in those days are looking at the natural nature of challenging their authority and religious interpretation. Reference.

Therefore, when extremists do these heinous things that destroy the material heritage of mankind, their reasons and mentality are also very simple. Since the traditional doctrines have not kept up with the times, nor can they explain and explain these new things, then find a way to destroy these unexplainable things (heretics) and let the world conform to itself.

That's why the cold joke that "will not believe in religion or die is very embarrassing" has been widely spread in later generations.

But all in all, with such a master writer who is quite compatible and similar in the three perspectives and positions, Zhou Huaian finally no longer has to go to battle on his own, and has to work overtime to write and publish corresponding editorials outside of official duties. Come to refute and correct, and guide the social atmosphere and public opinion.

In another part of the city, Luo Yin, who had just hosted a discussion meeting, rubbed his forehead slightly tiredly, and returned to the small courtyard of his new home. It is also only one block away from the library and hall of the large workshop, and it can be said that it is extremely convenient to travel.

And the small courtyard itself is facing the noisy street, and there are bookshops, printing bureaus, and stationery shops in the neighborhood. It has a sense of quietness in the noisy and the fragrance of books. It can not be said that the location is not careless.

In the courtyard, the layout is small, but the furnishings are well-furnished. Among the houses full of vines and wall vines, the luxury and splendor that is not obvious at all is clean and tidy, and it has a sense of tranquility and elegance. It's just that every time Luo Yin stepped into this place, he still had some sighs and sense of dislocation from being in a foreign country and suddenly separated from the rest of the world.

Especially when he was wrapped in a sujin quilt every night, listening to the loud noises and leaks outside, feeling the warmth of the furnace around him, but he always remembered the freshness and subtleties of his early years in Chang'an. All kinds of life.

Then every time I opened my eyes, I had to repeatedly confirm that the surroundings were not in my dreams; but I couldn't help but feel a little wet in my eyes and temples. Luo Yin raised the curtain as he thought, but he couldn't help but let out a hey.

Because there was a figure sitting on the knees behind the curtain, and he used a kind of magnetic voice that he had some familiar with, and said:

"The servant Yunying, I was ordered to take care of the daily life of the nobles... Still looking forward to it..."

At this moment, Luo Yin's mind seemed to be struck by a big rock and buzzed, and his chest seemed to be pinched heavily by some intangible inexplicable thing, and his tongue was so stiff that he had already said no. Any words are coming.

Seeing people’s affection, it is like returning to the joking joking of the beautiful lady with crimson eyebrows and makeup at the banquet on the riverside of Zhongling on the bright and beautiful spring, with the fresh grasses and flowers more than a decade ago. "", and he read the poem "Ou Ti" with great heart:

"Zhong Ling is drunk and goodbye to more than ten springs, and see Yunying again in the palm of his hand. I am unfamed and unmarried, and I may be inferior to others."

—I am the dividing line —

In the land of Xichuan on Jiannan Road, the wilderness of Hanzhou in northeastern Chengdu (Guanghan, Sichuan) has become a battlefield that lasts for tens of miles.

The thin ice and snow that hadn't been for a long time, was soon trampled by countless running and chasing legs and feet, and trampled into icy, slippery pieces of mud. Then it was soon covered by the dumped corpse and the flowing blood, and it turned into a little mottled color in the grayish white and blackish.

In the sky above these corpses and blood, countless Dongchuan Army Chiyan flags shaking and moving forward, flying yellow flags escorting Xichuan Army, Blue Bird flags of Shanxi Army, and Winged Tiger flags of Shence Town Army, are in dense disturbance. Together, they were cut off, crushed, and trampled on the ground.

At the same time, in Jinguan City, there is also a tumultuous city full of hustle and bustle; but the new army responsible for staying in the city, together with the Xichuan tooth soldiers, has taken the whole city like a copy of those who are fighting against Dongchuan. Yang Shili, may be related and connected with giants, wealthy families, large households, officials and eunuchs.

On the upper floor of the Zicheng gate where the emperor of the Tang Dynasty lived, Zhang Jun, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, a soldier in the military department, and a member of the military branch, facing the Tang Xizong who was watching the movement, said with a heartache: "The Holy Lord Mingjian, this is not a thing. Again and again, again and again..."

"The Tian brothers have little virtue and incompetence, and they often change things with selfishness, but what hinders the fame and virtue of the Holy Lord..."

The brothers Du Ranneng, a scholar from the Chinese Bookstore, and Du Honghui, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, are also particularly convincing.

"If you let it go, where will the Jiannan Sanchuan be undisturbed? Not to mention that it will be uneasy if you walk around the corner now..."

"Enough, Tian Gongxing Xingshu is still quite effective, but it is not a matter of trouble, I will continue to rely on... This matter will not be investigated, but you will not mention it again... "

Tang Xizong waved his hand somewhat impatiently.

At this time, a blood-stained small school suddenly appeared in Tai (Wai Guo) City on horseback, shouting loudly.

"The war ahead is urgent, so I ask that he walks in Hejie Ya quickly send troops to respond..." (End of this chapter)
