Chapter 2289: The best is like water, and the worst is like water.(1/2)
Xu County.
Or call it Xudu.
The reason why it is called "or" is because of Fei Qian. After all, if there is no Guanzhong Chang'an as a comparison, then it can probably be called "Xu Du", but now many people feel that Xu County can still only be regarded as
A county somewhat lacks the "overlord spirit" of the capital of the Han Dynasty.
Although the names of many places in Xu County are still the same as Luoyang, such as Chongde Hall and so on, although there are still some expedited constructions, the overall scale is much smaller. After all, Xu County only has Luoyang
half as big.
Before dawn, Xun Yu dressed neatly and rode a carriage to the palace gate. Before the night was over, the palace gate was opened wide, and Xun Yu led all the ministers to the front of the Chongde Hall.
If Lao Cao is not here, he will be considered a big one...
Today is the imperial meeting.
At the Great Court Meeting, all ministers in Xu County must be present, but not all of them can see the Emperor Liu Xie. Only officials with more than 2,000 shi can enter the palace to see him, and the rest of them congratulate His Majesty.
Because the Chongde Hall is smaller than Luoyang, not all of the two thousand stones can actually enter the hall...
The average one is worth two thousand dan. If there is no actual position, it is just a false position that cannot be fulfilled, such as the position of Yizhou Shepherd, Yangzhou Shepherd, etc., then you can only stand on "Your Majesty"
, even because the area of "Your Majesty" is not large, it became standing at "Your Majesty", or it should be called "under the steps".
The first step of the great court meeting is naturally for the official representatives to make a government work report to the emperor. Usually it is narrated by Xun Yu, which is to reflect some situations in various places in recent times. Of course, these situations are the current court, that is,
Cao Cao controlled some things within his jurisdiction, but those in other areas were just a matter of numbers.
If it is the official meeting on the first day of the new year, in the palace, all the officials will kneel down together, shout long live, and wish the emperor another year, and then the Taiguan Ling will do it for him.
The emperor gave the officials wine and food, usually a piece of boiled meat and a cup of corn wine. They also performed some artistic performances, which was quite like a tea party in later generations.
However, it was not Zhengdan at the moment, so after Xun Yu finished his report, the officials from the Shaofu came to give some drinking wine to the officials in the palace, and the ordinary officials outside the palace could leave.
Normally, the second round of deliberation is to discuss some major national affairs, and then the emperor will balance and adjust them and make a decision. However, the problem is that major matters cannot be discussed in the palace now. It is suspected of insulting the emperor by talking about trivial matters every time.
, so no matter what you choose to do at every court meeting, it will be somewhat embarrassing.
Liu Xie also understands this embarrassment, but he has to find something for himself to do after all, otherwise he, the emperor, may become less and less influential, just like a sock forgotten in the corner, and eventually grow
Full of hair, it disappeared from people's memory.
After Xun Yu once again expressed that the world was at peace and the people were happy, Liu Xie did not refute. He just pondered for a moment and then said: "In the past, when the late emperor was in Luoyang, after the court meeting, there were often debates on scriptures. I think about it now.
What a pity..."
Xun Yu lowered his head, cupped his hands and said, "I promise you that Chu Jian will not have all the Ph.D.s, so it will be difficult to debate the scriptures. However, the world is gradually settling down, and it is about to reach peace and tranquility. Talented people from all directions will inevitably come in clouds. Given time, the debate on the scriptures will be held."
See you again. Emperor, don’t worry."
Liu Xie nodded and did not offer any refutation of Xun Yu's words. Instead, he said that he had heard about Zheng Xuan, a great scholar who seemed to be a well-educated scholar and had a deep knowledge of Confucian classics. He wondered if he could invite Xu County.
Xun Yu couldn't help but raised his head and glanced at Liu Xie. He was a little unsure whether Liu Xie really didn't know or was pretending to be confused. However, he had to answer the emperor's question. He could only ponder for a while and then said: "I'm afraid it's convenient."
When people go there, Master Zheng is not allowed to come in to give lectures."
Liu Xie asked: "But why?"
Xun Yu replied: "Nowadays, among the doctors of the Five Classics, there is no one who teaches the study of ancient Chinese classics..."
Liu Xie was stunned for a moment, is this the reason...
It seems to sound better than the east-west interval.
In fact, Zheng Xuan is considered to have learned "ancient and modern" and is a relatively typical pragmatist. If modern texts are useful, Zheng Xuan will use modern texts. If ancient texts are good, he will use ancient texts. He did not say which aspect he prefers. But Xun Yu
That said, in some respects, it is actually an excuse.
At present, many people have begun to feel that there are problems with modern texts, and have begun to turn their attention to ancient texts. Some explanations are also biased towards ancient texts. However, the problem has become chaotic after Emperor Ling, so the qualification of "Doctor of the Five Classics" has always been
It has not been changed. In other words, even if the people are once again prosperous and pay attention to ancient Chinese literature, it is still a private study, and even if modern Chinese literature declines again, it is still an ideological model endorsed by the official.
Just like many people in later generations believe that the "Happy Scriptures" are used by some elites to stratify society and solidify their classes. However, this is still just a speculation among the people and is not officially recognized.
Later generations of the Niu Kingdom have learned from the past. Its public schools are supported by government funding and are free for students; private schools are not the same. They are completely self-funded and the annual tuition is basically the annual income of an ordinary family. In this case, the education in public schools will
It is relatively relaxed, creating a happy and comfortable atmosphere; private schools are a different kind of world, with very strict requirements and high learning pressure. Different efforts lead to different results: the five best private schools in the country of Oxbridge were admitted to the two universities of Oxbridge
The number of people is the total number of people admitted to these two prestigious schools from other 1,800 public schools in the country.
Many foreign scientists and educationists have begun to say that family, school, and environment will all determine human development. If a child wants to transcend the inherent class, he must first have talent, secondly, he must be self-disciplined, study hard, and have good luck.
.However, there are still some people who are willing to indulge in wishful dreams, thinking that happiness is reasonable, that pleasure is the best way, that it is easy and that they can go to Oxbridge even if they sleep.
Indeed, there is everything in dreams.
Historically, due to the confusion of ancient and modern texts, the entire academic thought has also entered a period of chaos. In the Three Kingdoms era, Wang Su's Wang Xue climbed up amidst the chaos and became a prominent school. However, the problem was that Wang Xue was mixed with Buddhism, Taoism, etc.
Thoughts gave rise to metaphysics. In the development process of ancient Chinese intellectual history, metaphysics played a very important role, but in terms of strengthening central governance and cultivating China's martial arts and vigorous spirit, metaphysics failed and regressed.
So did Liu Xie really want to clarify the scriptures of modern and ancient texts and determine a certain knowledge?
Obviously not.
Liu Xie listened to Xun Yu's words, pondered for a while, and then said: "I have studied modern Chinese prose, and I also like ancient Chinese prose, so I have many confusions. I hope that the great scholars can explain it, and I especially admire Zheng Kangcheng's learning. At the time of Emperor Gaozu, hundreds of schools of thought were
Can be a doctor; according to Xiaowu's method, there are only seven doctors in the Five Classics; if we follow the law of Xiaoxuan, "Gu Liang" will not be included in the official school. Nowadays, doctors are scattered, how can we argue... Therefore, all modern and ancient texts can be doctors. I have the intention
I am trying to revive the study of literature and recruit the most learned people from all over the world. I wonder what you, my beloved, think?"
The other courtiers in the main hall bowed their heads silently and did not say a word.
In silence, Xun Yu said slowly: "This matter is very important, so why not... Let's discuss it another day..."
Liu Xie frowned slightly, and then said: "Today is the court meeting, why can't it be discussed?"
Xun Yu was silent for a while and said, "Today's main discussion is about the battle in Youbei... It's a matter of Confucian classics. We can wait until the battle is decided before we can discuss it too late..."
Liu Xie took a breath, nodded finally, sat back a little, straightened his body, like a statue in a temple, upright and solemn.
Then Xun Yu began to discuss, explain, and assign matters regarding the war in northern Youzhou, and then someone else began to discuss and explain the assigned matters again...
By the end of the court meeting, both the stage and the audience were exhausted and retreated.
Xun Yu sat in the car and slowly left the palace and returned to the general, the great Sikong, or the official residence of Cao Mansion. This title could be anything, as everyone knew that Liu Xie wanted to
To engage in scripture debate is not really for the sake of scripture debate.
But the problem is that it is difficult to refuse, at least it is difficult to refuse directly.
If Liu Xie asks once, he will definitely ask for a second and third time. But if he refuses the first time and the second time, he may not be able to refuse the third time...
If you refuse this more than three times, you are suspected of committing a crime...well, you have committed a crime.
With the series of operations or hype carried out by General Fei in Guanzhong, more and more people in the Han Dynasty realized, especially upper-class politicians like Xun Yu, that it was very important to control the media and public opinion.
An administrative measure cannot be let go easily.
Think about Zheng Kangcheng, think about Mr. Shui Jing, who has his own traffic and is a top big V. If anyone has a crooked mouth, it will take a long time for others to explain. The official ones are not easy to use. Especially when I see the wave of Qinglong Temple in Guanzhong.
Waves of thoughts are surging, from Confucius to Mencius, from modern learning to ancient learning, from seeking truth to seeking righteousness, and even what the five virtues can be discussed and not wheeled, etc., almost continuously, impacting, scouring, and colliding with the original Shandong
academic theoretical system...
Just like the current situation in Xu County, although the emperor is in charge, it can't compare with economics, academics, and territory. It's so embarrassing that we can only treat it as invisible, otherwise we face this kind of situation every day.
I'm afraid the emperor and his ministers would be so uncomfortable that they could dig out a three-room and one-living room from the ground with their toes.
But there are some things that you know well but are not easy to do.
At least Xun Yu couldn't take the lead.
Because Cao Cao doesn't allow it.
It's not that Cao Cao doesn't understand the importance of this matter, but if the academic circles in Shandong unite and unite, if they can defeat Guanzhong Feiqian, it means they can also defeat Cao Cao...
After all, Cao Cao is not like Fei Qian. Cao Cao does not allow such risks to exist, so what Cao Cao hopes to see is a scattered Shandong gentry system, rather than a fighting force condensed under Xun Yu or someone else.
Shandong Gentlemen Group.
Feiqian started from the Shoushan Academy to the Qinglong Temple in Guanzhong, and gradually built a powerful academic system with countless collections of books, top academic scholars, countless students, plus astronomy, geography, engineering, agriculture, etc.
After receiving blessings step by step, when Fei Qian punched the scripture system, to a certain extent, there was no other opponent that could compete with him.
If time could be turned back and Cao Cao was given the same amount of time, would Cao Cao have arranged similar means in advance?
Xun Yu sighed slightly.
Still impossible.
Because Cao Cao's choice point from the beginning was the Central Plains, the place of the Four Wars, there was no space and no time for Cao Cao to deploy these means. Only by fighting, constantly fighting, and fighting on all sides, could Cao Cao struggle to carve out a space. From this aspect
It is said that Fei Qian chose Bingzhou Beidi as the foundation of his great cause, which was a wonderful move...
Xun Yu on the vehicle swayed.
In the street, some noblemen saw Xun Yu's canopy chariot and stood by the roadside to salute.
Xun Yu nodded slightly, then got out of the car in front of the government office and walked forward.
When small sounds gather together, they become a huge sound wave.
At this point, Fei Qian walked in front. Just like a sword, Fei Qian picked it up first and played it very well without cutting himself.
To be continued...
