The Situation of Sui and Tang Dynasty: the Troubled Times Among Various Scholars

The Buddha in Longmen Grottoes nods his head, and bones form hills beside the Grand Canal. The Tang Dynasty was crippled by gold and iron horses, and Confucianism, Taoism, and Mohism followed the torrent. The disciples of Confucius held the slips and wanted to speak to the princes about benevolence and righteousness. He turned his tongue into a sword vertically and horizontally, looking for princes from Qin, Mu, and Chu. Laozhuang is dragging its tail in the mud, laughing at the disputes. The Mohist disciples are clever and cunning, and their love is endless. The poplar flowers have all fallen in the Sui Dynasty and the plum blossoms have begun to bloom in the autumn of Chang'an. Hundreds of families are igniting in the troubled times, who will eventually shine the light on Kyushu? The flag in front of Wagang Village looks like the sea, and a ditch of blood forms beside the Xuanwu Gate. Mo Yan is a scholar with no merit, but the sharpness of his pen can break through enemy towers. When the dust has settled, the wind of Zhenguan will sweep away the old sorrows. Only the ruins of the monuments burying the ancient roads still remember the discussions of the rise and fall of scholars.
