    "Your Majesty, you asked me just now why I want to give the Tongwen Museum and Hongwen Museum the same status. In fact, I have an idea. Your Majesty, China has been making progress by constantly absorbing different cultures since ancient times, but why is it all me?  China takes the initiative to absorb but cannot take the initiative to promote it. We will have more and more exchanges with foreign countries in the future. Although they will come to learn and bring their culture, why can't we take the initiative to promote it?  "What about our culture?" "Your Majesty, you see, even the Romans can think of publishing Aristotle's Theory of Instruments in our country, and how many books can our country publish in foreign countries?"  ? Since ancient times, China has rarely been able to take the initiative to spread culture in foreign countries, but foreigners have come to learn. Isn¡¯t this too slow? When will the light of our Chinese culture cover the entire world?  But foreigners are also aware of this, and they can take the initiative to come to us to spread their culture, and then let us learn from them, so we will inevitably be influenced by them, and then our entire culture will move closer to them.  After hearing this, Li Shimin immediately said angrily: "How can this be done? If all of us in the Tang Dynasty learn from foreign countries, will we still be in the Tang Dynasty?"  They are willing to spend hundreds of years to change our customs, so aren't we just influenced by them? You know, if you work hard enough, even a drop of water can be ground into a needle!  If people come to influence us, we will really be affected," Jing Wen said.  "Then do you want me to restrict foreigners from coming to our Tang Dynasty? Then ban people from the Tang Dynasty from reading foreign books?" Li Shimin asked.  Jing Wen immediately said: "Your Majesty, then this is overkill. As the saying goes, only state officials are allowed to set fires, but the people are not allowed to light lamps? Since they can take the initiative to spread their culture, why don't we want to go out and spread it?  "How about going out? Let our culture of the Tang Dynasty go out and influence them?" Li Shimin asked.  "Of course! Of course we, the Tang Dynasty, should also go out. Since they can come here and try to influence us, why don't we also go there and influence them? And if we can use our culture to influence them, then they will have a large number of people who want to influence us.  People from the Central Plains. Your Majesty should know that the power of culture is infinite. If a group of people who have studied the same culture as our Tang Dynasty can serve as officials in foreign countries, wouldn't they be our natural allies?" Jing Wen asked.  .  "Hmm - that's interesting!" Li Shimin said.  Of course Li Shimin knew what Jing Wen meant. What Jing Wen meant was to let foreigners learn Chinese culture, and then when they returned to their own country to serve as officials and become the ruling class, they would have a lot of favor with other countries.  Deeply influenced by culture.  This kind of gameplay has actually been around for a long time.  During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, weren't there many so-called "protons" studying as hostages in foreign countries?  Moreover, the Central Plains dynasty often required the heirs of those vassal states to come to the Imperial College of the Central Plains to study before inheriting the throne of the vassal state.  In fact, this is a kind of cultural assimilation, which makes their rulers have the same mind towards the Central Plains Dynasty.  This is actually an ancient practice, and they have long been aware of the benefits of having a common culture.  And Jingwen¡¯s statement actually expands this scope.  In the past, the Central Plains Dynasty only allowed princes from vassal states to study. After becoming kings, they would turn their hearts to the Central Plains.  But now Jing Wen is different. He has expanded the scope to include the entire ruling class of foreign countries.  Let the entire ruling class yearn for the Central Plains in their hearts, and they will become natural allies.  Once war breaks out, they will become natural traitors.  So this is the power of culture, and Jing Wen wants the entire ruling class of the other party to learn the culture of the Central Plains.  Then one can definitely get a lot of benefit from them.  Even more, Jing Wen¡¯s ambition is not just that, he not only expands the number of people he studies, but also expands geographically.  Let Europe in the far west also begin to learn the culture of the Central Plains.  In this way, they must all be proud of learning Chinese culture.  In this way, Chinese culture will be spread all over the world so that everyone around the world can speak fluent Chinese.  "Humph, when the time comes. You foreign devils, if your Chinese is less than CET-4, you can't even hope to graduate from college!" Jing Wen thought sinisterly in his heart.  Jingwen had a deep resentment towards the English language back then!  Obviously English is not used in life at all, but you can't graduate if you fail English. This is really cheating.  But Jing Wen was struggling with English back then, and he always covered his face when answering English questions.  Anyway, his highest score in English is only over 20 points, so it is extremely tragic.?Now that he had the opportunity, he naturally wanted to be a villain and take revenge on these foreign devils.  Therefore, if the foreigners¡¯ Chinese language skills do not exceed CET-4, they will not be able to graduate from school.  "Your Majesty, think about it, if one day the whole world can speak fluent Chinese, and then hold my Chinese classics in their hands, in the end everyone will be proud to come to China's Tang Dynasty, and they will sharpen their heads and want to  Become a citizen of the Tang Dynasty. In that case, do you think it is necessary for us in the Tang Dynasty to send out large armies to conquer the world? So using culture to conquer is the most stable way to conquer the world.  If we speak Chinese and are proud to join the Tang Dynasty, then we will become a country without national borders. Wherever we go, there will be countless people who love the Tang Dynasty to support us. Then we will be subdued without fighting.  , directly conquered the entire world, so this is a long-term matter, and we must persist." Jing Wen said.  Li Shimin was also moved by Jing Wen's blueprint, because if it was true that Xiang Jing Wen was like this and the whole world admired Chinese culture, then Datang would conquer the world without a fight.  At that time, you can completely take the entire world into your pocket, and then become an immortal foundation for eternity.  This is the role of culture, and the first step is to start exporting your own culture so that your culture can spread to the world and let the whole world know that there is a country called China in the east of the world.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
