Chapter seven hundred and forty sixth guide
When Temujin saw Ye Qing, a hearty smile appeared on his dark face. Behind him, in addition to a few Tatars, two Taoist priests followed him and walked towards them.
The two hugged each other tightly when they met. Zhong Qing, Mo Xiaobao and others were watching Ye Qing and exchanged greetings with Temujin.
Temujin introduced the people behind him one by one, and several of them became famous under Temujin's command in the future and became the so-called four heroes and four brave men.
When it was Qiu Chuji and Tan Chuduan's turn, Temujin still had a smile on his face and said, "I heard from the two real people that you have known them for a long time. You saved the two real people at the beginning."
"Now when I see them, I feel that I saved the wrong one at that time. It should be better to save a kitten and a puppy than to save them." Ye Qing said with a smile.
Temujin laughed out loud. Of course he knew the festival between Qiu Chuji, Tan Chuduan and Ye Qing, but no matter what, the two real people accepted his invitation in the end and were willing to assist him under his command and fight for them Tatars.
Qiu Chuji and Tan Chuduan were quite dissatisfied when they listened to Ye Qing's words, but they did not attack in front of everyone.
However, Ye Qing obviously didn't want to let them go like this, and he also wanted to see what Qiu Chuji and Tan Chuduan gave Temujin so much so-called revelation from heaven, and what Temujin wanted to get by relying on Qiu Chuji so much.
"Rejecting the invitation from the Jin emperor for his unkindness and in accordance with the charity of my great Song saint, he finally secretly fled from Lin'an. The actions of the two Taoist priests really make people wonder whether it was for the people of Dawn or for their own selfishness." Ye Qing never was polite to Qiu Chuji.
He believed that Taoism should have mysterious things such as so-called celestial phenomena and other mysterious things. Of course, he was more willing to compare this to academics like military chess deductions, so that so-called Taoist masters such as Qiu Chuji and Tan Chuduan can see through the future.
Otherwise, Qiu Chuji and Tan Chuduan would not give up the respect and kindness given by the Jin Dynasty at that time, and also gave up the various noble conditions provided by the Southern Song Dynasty court, and determined to follow Temujin to promote their Taoist doctrine.
However, obviously, Ye Qing still underestimated Qiu Chuji's shamelessness and Taoist practice. Qiu Chuji, who had a dark face, looked at Ye Qing who seemed to be smiling and said coldly: "I follow the laws of heaven. The Emperor of Song was in power and did not serve the people. The Jin Dynasty court was unkind to treat the people. I was determined to save the people in the world from water and fire..."
"What is the law of nature? What you think of is the law of nature can really give the people of the Central Plains a benevolent policy? If Master Qiu really cares about the people of the world and wants to save the people from water and fire, then he should not appear in Lin'an at this time, but in Shandong. The frequent water of the Yellow River embankment caused the people to suffer disasters. Master Qiu, don't know if he is interested in saving the people with practical actions, rather than using doctrine to fool my brothers?" Ye Qing said at the end, and naturally put an arm on Temujin's shoulder.
Temujin looked back at Ye Qing, who looked at Qiu Chuji, and Tan Chuduan and the others were full of contempt, and said, "You are wrong. We Tatars are also the people of the world. The real person saves us people from the oppression of the Jin people, which is also the righteousness in his heart."
"But you can't be more favorable than the other, right?" Ye Qing asked with a smile.
"But we need them more than you. What they can give us is what you don't want to give us, because you fear us like a tiger or a wolf." Temujin's stiff Song Dynasty speech has improved a little more or less after these days.
"What they can give you is just to make you believe that it is what you want, and it is not necessarily the right thing to do. That's it..." Ye Qing patted Temujin's shoulder and then said, "Let you see something, maybe it will change your mind."
"No, I'm sure." Temujin said seriously.
But in the end, he followed Ye Qing's advice and was willing to talk to Ye Qing and the others alone.
There is a manor in West Lake that has always been a villa of the Yan family. After Yan Hongyuan had moved out to Yangzhou, this villa became Ye Qing's private garden. Although it rarely comes now, people guard this mysterious villa all around them all year round.
When Ye Qing looked at him, Mo Xiaobao immediately walked up and knocked on the door. Then, as the people inside opened the door with a lantern, Ye Qing took Temujin to the inside. After everyone behind him watched Zhong Qing step in, Mo Xiaobao stood at the door and shook his head and refused to enter.
Temujin looked at Ye Qing in surprise, and Ye Qing smiled and said, "Qiu Chuji, Tan Chuduan is often called a god by you, but it does not mean that what they told you is really a gift from God. I can prove it to you, maybe, I can let you see where the real way out."
Ye Qing's conversation with Temujin just now basically made him understand why Temujin attaches great importance to Qiu Chuji and others, so he really wanted to try whether he could use this somewhat risky way to convince Temujin, and even agree to use military force against Khwarezm.
Temujin ignored Ye Qing's words, but looked back at the people who were blocked by Mo Xiaobao, thought for a while and said, "Take them back to Lin'an, I will come to you tomorrow."
"Smart." Ye Qing was shocked, but he still said with a silent smile.
Obviously, he did not expect that while observing Temujin, Temujin had already figured out his intentions, and even... he had figured out that it would take a long time for his conversation with Ye Qing to go back to Lin'an, so he asked his subordinates to go back to Lin'an directly, instead of waiting for him outside.
Of course, we can also see from this that Temujin is confident and brave, and he is not worried about any accidents he will encounter when he is alone in discussing matters with Ye Qing.
As everyone left, Ye Qing took Zhong Qing and Temujin to the second floor of Yanfu Villa. Then, as Zhong Qing commanded the soldiers guarding the villa for many years, pushing out models like regional sand tables from the surrounding rooms and starting to piece together in the huge hall on the second floor.
"What is this?" Temujin asked with a frown.
"You ask, can't you really tell me?" Ye Qing said with a smile.
"Is this your map?" Temujin looked at the figure in front of him and the mountains placed on the table began to look like they should be.
"It's still early. It will take at least an hour to present these things in front of you." Ye Qing patted Temujin's shoulder and signaled him to follow him to another room.
As Zhong Qing put down the tea and went out, the smile on Ye Qing's face gradually began to calm down, and his expression became a little solemn to look at the calm Temujin.
The room seemed extremely quiet. Even the sound of moving the huge sand table outside from time to time seemed to be isolated from another world by the two people in the room. They looked at each other's eyes, and the only one candle made the reflected candle in their pupils, making their eyes brighter and more sincere.
"You hope to find the origin of you Tatars from Qiu Chuji. You want to know where you came from, why were you born on the grassland, why did you form so many tribes, and face endless wars and killing every day. God has brought you to the vast grassland, what kind of responsibility has God given you, and why is it so cruel and ruthless, like a child abandoned by God, just like your life experience, making you think the grassland is lonely." Ye Qing said in a deep voice as if he was reciting.
"What do you want to say?" Temujin asked calmly.
"I want to say that Qiu Chuji and the others can't give you the answer. Only our Song people can give you the answer. Even if they are the Jin people you hate, if they want to find the source of their origin, only our Song people can give them the answer. Because, only we have compiled records, this is not a matter of great supernatural powers, and even... I can give you the answer you want now, so that you can think that this is the origin of your Tatars, and that you can... regard it as the foundation of your establishment, and then use it to unify all tribes on the grassland...faith, be regarded as your god and your totem." Ye Qing took a deep breath, his expression was also calm and solemn.
"I just don't want to let us Tatars be subjected to endless oppression, and I don't want to see us Tatars kill each other. If we can get peace, I am willing to pay any price. As long as God is willing to give mercy on our poor people who come to the grassland." Temujin looked calm and his tone was calm, making people feel no ambition.
"You want more, obey your true heart like God, and you want your people to be like the Song people, Jin people, and even... You now have greater ambitions. You are very smart, you are smarter than Jin and Xia people. Because you see the reasons for failure in them, you also examined the reason why you Tatars lack spiritual beliefs, so you are dispersed and unable to form a powerful tribe or even a country. So you need Qiu Chuji to help you find the faith like God, so that the people on the grassland can identify with that faith, and thus gather you together, just like us, Jin people, Xia people, and become a whole powerful." Ye Qing continued to analyze.
In Temujin's calm eyes, the light of the candle shook slightly, as if Ye Qing had hit it, and he looked at Ye Qing quietly.
It is indeed as Ye Qing said, although Temujin has not yet completely unified the entire grassland, he has already had a greater ideal in his heart. Not only does he unify the entire grassland, but he even wants to overthrow the Jin people, and even continue to make the entire Tatars stronger and become the Khan of the Jin people.
"A very ancient and long-standing legend: The Tatars originally had only two tribes: Qiyan tribe and Negus tribe, but both tribes were defeated by other tribes and were brutally slaughtered, and only two men and two women survived. They fled to a place, surrounded by forests, wolves, white deer, and fertile grasslands in the middle. This place is called "Ergunekun", which can also be called "steep hillside". So they decided to live and reproduce here and pass on generations. The "Erguna" in this legend is the Erguna River flowing through the Hulunbeier grassland, which is the birthplace of the Tatar people." Ye Qing continued to say as if he was reciting, while Temujin, who was silent, had a brighter pupil than before.
"God has always favored these two men and women, and time has also given them the opportunity to reproduce and survive. I don't know how many years have passed, and how many cold and cold seasons have passed. Finally one day, the two men and women who were defeated at the time have gradually been forgotten by their descendants. In the history of the Tatars, no one has mentioned them anymore. So more and more descendants who have reproduced and survived gradually separated into more than seventy tribes of different sizes. They have always been with Canglang and White Deer, so they regard Canglang and White Deer as their ancestors. In your words, they are Bortechina and Huoemalanle. And your name is Borjijin Temujin, so you Temujin are descendants of Canglang, and your ancestors can also be considered Canglang.
Therefore, in order to make your nation more meaningful and be given by God, it is the persuasion of God's people and to complete your national characteristics. On the basis of these, some totem-like rituals and meanings are needed. In this "Old Book of Tang", we can learn from it. During the period when you Tatars were reproductive and reborn, people would call you who were still extremely weak at that time: Buy Huoler, Mengwu, etc.
If more meanings are needed, then the nation that can be given to him: that is, the heavenly clan, or the meaning of simplicity or the eternal fire, the meaning of endless life.
In short, the complete life of your nation is not something that can be achieved by relying on Qiu Chuji, but by the profound history of our Chinese nation, you can be reborn and fundamentally stand on the grassland, so that you can become a part of the Chinese nation and never be separated.”
"Are these our origins and the roots of our nation?" Temujin finally couldn't help but temptation to put his hand in that book, and Ye Qing threw it in the "Old Book of Tang" in front of him and asked.
"The Chinese nation can give you everything you want, and you have your records. As long as you are willing, you can even refine it. When there is no one in this world, your nation will exist uniquely on the grassland. Believe me and believe in yourself. The dynasty changes and national reincarnation are just a part of history, and no nation has ever truly disappeared. What you need is to trace the origin, establish a nation with common beliefs, and establish a civilized tribe that is not oppressed, and have your writing, historical divinity, and human nature. These are inseparable from the support of the big family of the Chinese nation. As long as you are willing, I am willing to help you create and establish unconditionally. Everything, the Chinese historical civilization can give you a satisfactory answer." Ye Qing said seriously.
"Do you want me to surrender to you?" Temujin asked, "Let me join the ranks of what you call the Chinese nation?"
"History is fair, even if the gods say it, it doesn't mean you don't exist. If you join, it doesn't mean you will be integrated into nothing. The characteristics of the Chinese nation have always been about seeking common ground while reserving differences. As the saying goes: the sea is full of rivers, tolerance is great, the wall is thousands of feet high, and there is no desire to be strong. Even if you can defeat the Jin Kingdom, the Xia Kingdom, or even destroy the Song Dynasty, you are already in the ranks of the Chinese nation, so why not try such a shortcut?" Ye Qing felt that if he continued to continue the charity, he would probably not have to surround Temujin, but instead surround himself first.
