Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 620 Cailing
"what are you saying?!"

Immediately after the Confucian scholar opened his mouth, someone let out a loud heck.

Everyone turned their heads, and saw an old man running towards them tremblingly. Yes, he was running. It's hard to imagine that a person of his age can rush forward at such a speed, and the direction he charged is exactly the direction of the person who just reprimanded Fu Chubo.

Everyone knew this man, and he was Fuchube's favorite student.

Fu Qiubo's ability to teach his disciples is obviously not as good as his teacher's. Another point is that his ability to teach his disciples is not as good as his disciples.

And this disciple refers to this angry Shen Pei.

Shen Peigong is the most famous one among all the disciples of Fuqiubo. This student has the highest academic attainment among Fuqiubo's many disciples. He studied poetry with Fuqiubo and created the Confucian Lu poetry school by himself. At present, there are more than a thousand disciples, many of whom have heard of his reputation and traveled thousands of miles to study with him. Among his more than a thousand disciples, some became Sangong later on, and some started their own business. Some of them joined the sect, some became sheriffs, and the last ones were all well-known scholars.

During Emperor Wu's time, Zhao Wan, the official censor, Wang Zang, the doctor's order, and Kong Anguo, the prefect, were all his disciples. Among his disciples, there were more than a hundred of them who were doctors and ministers alone.
His current status in Taixue is also very high. Although he is submissive in front of Fu Qiubo, in front of other people, he is also an inviolable Confucian boss.

But the person who reprimanded Fu Qiubo was not afraid of Shen Pei, even when the other party rushed towards him quickly, he still glared at him without retreating at all.

Shen Pei quickly rushed in front of the opponent, stretching out his hand to grab his neck, but the opponent's disciple quickly came out to block him, Shen Pei's disciples also quickly stepped out, and the two sides confronted each other.

The person who reprimanded Fuchubo was also not an unknown person.

His name is Xiao Fen. The "Li" in the early Han Dynasty came from Gao Tangbo, and Gao Tangbo taught the ritual to Xiao Fen. Xiao Fen is the leader of the "Li" school of this generation.

Fu Qiubo belongs to the "Poetry" school, and the two schools are different.

As a school of etiquette, Xiao Fen and the others paid the most attention to these etiquettes, especially their teacher etiquette, family etiquette, court etiquette, etc. Funerals were also within the scope of their research. Keeping spirits and so on are all their credit, and in their mouths, these things have been passed down from ancient times to the present. They said that the past monarchs were like this, and they traced the origin of their rituals back to the era of Yao, Shun and Yu. It is believed that at that time, the ceremony had already been implemented. They even put the retrospective before the Zhou ceremony.

This also left a hidden danger for the later split of the Ritual School, but that's all for a later story.

Today, they are still working together and pursuing ritual with all their strength. It is probably because Uncle Sun Tongli knocked on the door of the big man and left Confucianism with hope of survival. It is impossible for Confucianism to survive to this day. At the same time, they are still the school that scolded Shusun Tong the most. They think that although Shusun Tong taught the emperor, his behavior does not conform to the etiquette. Allusion, flattering the emperor, changing his family many times, serving multiple kings, not having the integrity of a courtier, cannot be called polite.

Xiao Fen's teacher, Gao Tangbo, had a good relationship with Fu Qiubo. They had exchanged letters and debated together. Xiao Fen came to Taixue as a teacher only on the recommendation of his teacher.

Shen Pei looked extremely angry, he scolded: "If you want to seek death, why did you drag so many people?"

"My teacher kindly wanted to save you, but you still dare to humiliate him! Even your teacher dare not be so rude, what kind of courtesy are you treating?!"

Xiao Fen raised his head and replied disdainfully: "The Master said: Return to the rituals! What I said is the foundation of the world. The great man ruled the world with filial piety, but now he wants to punish the filial son and encourage the people of the world to do unfilial things. There are treacherous ministers like Chao Cuo in the behavior of etiquette, according to the etiquette, his three clans should be wiped out! Fu Qiubo, as everyone, does not want to write a letter to persuade the king when the etiquette collapses, but wants to imitate the uncle and grandson Tong, flattery, blatantly ignoring the fundamentals in order to preserve one's own wealth, isn't such behavior the behavior of a villain?"

Many Confucian scholars couldn't help but nodded, agreeing with Xiao Fen's remarks.

Shen Pei was furious, and subconsciously drew his sword.

But Fu Qiubo said, "Shen Peisheng don't do anything."

He was not angry because of the insult, he just looked at everyone calmly, and said: "Rites are naturally important. The sage uses the etiquette to let the world know what can be done and what can't be done. Discipline yourself so that you can get rid of your shortcomings and stick to your heart. This is the essence of etiquette, and etiquette is not for gaining fame. When asking others to obey the etiquette law, do you have to obey etiquette first and reach a certain state? The sage also said that one must have a full meal before one can know the rituals, so today's temples advocate festival burials, isn't that unreasonable?"

"Since the wars in various countries, until now, there are still many poor people. It is no problem to guide the people to observe the rituals and let them be filial people. But first, let them have enough food. Must force Is it a ritual to destroy a family and die? There are many kinds of rituals. Loyalty to the emperor is a ritual, peace to the people is a ritual, and benevolence is a ritual. Why use unnecessary and complicated rituals to restrict? When your teacher Gao Tanggong wrote to me, he once said Referring to the current situation. He said that in many places in the past, people could not eat at home, and it was an act of unfilial piety to send the elderly at home to wait for their deaths in the wild. Now that the world is rich, people can let their parents eat meat. Isn't it the greatest gift?"

"You have never lived through those times"

"Fochube is eloquent!"

"Fuchubo is eloquent!!"

Xiao Fen saw that the great Confucian scholars and young people around him were shaken, so he couldn't help but yelled loudly, interrupting Fu Qiubo directly. He yelled loudly, turned around and left, and about thirty people followed him. After getting on him and leaving together, Fuchubo leaned on his crutches excitedly, stretched out his hand in their direction, and struggled to catch up with them tremblingly, "I haven't finished my words yet. Don't be impulsive! You have lives It's dangerous. It's life-threatening. Don't do it!!"

Shen Pei stopped Fu Qiubo abruptly, and firmly grasped the teacher's arm with both hands, with a cold expression on his face.

"Teacher, forget about those who want to die, how can you stop them?"

"No, I have to persuade them to come back. They are still young"

Shen Pei just held the teacher tightly and refused to let him go. Fu Qiubo looked at their retreating backs anxiously, and let out a long and helpless sigh.

"Teacher, you don't know that these people entered the imperial academy because of their filial piety. He also spread his ideas everywhere, made friends with many ministers, and made them famous. Chao Cuo's decree directly smashed them Of course, they are the kind of people who don’t want to work for their jobs, so it’s not a pity to die!!!”

Hearing Shen Pei's words, Fu Qiubo's eyes were full of sadness.

"I'm not good at discipline, I'm not good at discipline."

Fu Qiubo's remarks were quickly circulated in the Taixue, and of course these remarks were embellished by someone.

"From the wars in various countries to the present, when we were hungry in the past, we would send our parents to the wild to die. Now that we can feed them a meal, we are already very filial. This is the greatest gift!"

"Ah?? Fuchubo really said that??"

"How can it be false? I heard it myself! He also said that the saint uses etiquette to educate the world, but he himself has not reached the level of observance of etiquette, saying that the saint is not qualified to preach etiquette to others!"

"Why is he so arrogant?! How dare he say that?!"

"He also said that we are looking for death, that we are looking for death and don't take him with us!"

"Shameless! From today onwards, I will no longer worship him!!"

Just two days later, the atmosphere within Confucianism changed dramatically. There were more and more rumors about Fu Qiubo, including his previous behavior. The emperor, Xiao Fen thought that His Majesty was rude, but Fuqiu Bo said: "Everyone worships the emperor, but the king of Tang sees his father."

He became the leader of Taixue through such flattery. It can be seen that at that time, he dismissed etiquette and only thought about how to flatter the emperor.

Later, when King Tang ascended the throne, Confucian scholars were in an uproar. Everyone talked about it again, but Fuqiu Bo said: King Tang suffered a lot, and his ambition is not here. What can I do?
This is to flatter the emperor and even give up his own integrity!

Later, the emperor set up Shangfang to collect the remnants of the Mohist school, let them revive their ashes, and recruit people from the peasant family on a large scale. Confucianism thought it was inappropriate, but Fuqiu Bo said: If a worker wants to do a good job, he must first benefit himself. Weapon, Your Majesty's weapon wins! !

This is all blatantly standing on the side of the Mo family and the peasant family, and saying that they are a sharp weapon for governing the country, and their buttocks are sitting crooked! !

I don’t know if I don’t turn it over, I’m startled when I turn it over.

Fu Qiubo's remarks in these years have always been a bit "rebellious", although this style is the characteristic of their Xunzi school, but in the past no one dared to say anything because of his status. Now that Xiao Fen exerts his strength, he immediately He has become the Confucian of the villain in everyone's mouth, and he even helped His Majesty debate with Confucianism!He even compiled books to flatter the emperor!He even has a high title!He dare not speak ill of the emperor!He is a villain! !
The internal changes in Confucianism made Huang Lao both startled and ecstatic at the same time.

The happiest ones are probably Huang Lao's Wang Gao and Sima Jizhu. In these years, they have faced Fu Qiubo several times, but basically they have never defeated this old man. This old man is like a mountain of Confucianism. He is here, Huang Lao is a little bit guilty of Confucianism, there is a gangster among you, how do you fight? ?

They didn't expect that this mountain was overthrown by people inside their Confucianism, that's great!God help me too! !

The two factions are about to fight each other, and you have blown your own cards, what a Zhao Wangqian! !Are you guys writing those articles by Meicheng? ?

In Wang Gao's mansion, their disciples cheered and laughed from ear to ear seeing the lively situation of Confucianism.

Only Wang Gao sat on the top seat without saying a word.

Some disciples talked excitedly about the situation in Taixue, "Confucianism is in full swing now, and there are really many disciples of Shen Pei. Even if all schools start to scold Fuqiu Bo, they can still scold others. Once, one of them, surnamed Zhao, couldn't stand up to ten people to scold him. No matter how much they quarreled, they couldn't stand the more and more people who scolded Fuqiubo. Fen came to be the head of the Imperial Academy. Xiao Fen led a group of people to find out about Fu Qiubo's past words and deeds all day long, and gave lectures everywhere. He talked about etiquette, but he always surrounded Fu Qiubo. looks like"

Another person also said: "He also asked his disciples to visit Fengchang, wanting to test the attitude of Fengchang Mansion, three of them went there, and two went back. It is said that one of them said bad things about Fu Qiubo, He was beaten with fifty sticks by Feng Chang, nearly killed, and then handed over to Ting Wei."

"They didn't even think about it, Fengchang Lu Jia is Fuqiubo's, anyone dared to go there, but Xiao Fen was quite happy, he felt that he had found Fuqiubo's black spot again, and went around saying that Fuqiubo could do it. He governed Taixue because his younger brother served as Fengchang, and questioned that he himself had no knowledge."

Several people were very happy talking, one of them rushed over and said to Wang Gao: "Teacher, at this time, should we speak out? For Fuqiubo, for Fuqiu?"

When everyone heard this, they woke up suddenly, and said with a smile: "That's right! We must stand by Lord Fuqiu's side and add fire to them!!"

But Wang Gao scolded angrily: "How did I ever teach you the truth of throwing stones into a well?! Also, is the name of Uncle Fuqiu something you can say directly?! The battle between Lord Fuqiu and me is a matter of knowledge. If I see him, I have to worship him, let alone you? Go back and think about it!!"

Everyone was shocked, apologized hastily, and then left.

Not long after the disciples left, Master Sima Ji approached the door. Although they were both old Huang, their relationship was not good. Master Sima Ji rarely came to him. Wang Gao was not surprised to see him coming. He sat beside him.

Sima Jizhu's expression was also not very good-looking.

"Although it is a great enemy, it can be lost in the hands of villains like this. It is true."

Wang Gao's face was complicated, and he looked a little sad and angry, "I want to go to the prince and let the prince rectify it."

Sima Ji shook his head, "At this time, if he expresses his position rashly, he will be reviled by more people. After all, we and Confucianism are rivals."

"If there is a person with moral integrity like him in Mr. Huang, I will take off his shoes for him personally, let him sit on the top seat, and stand beside him with food to serve him. You say this Xiao Sheng, why is he dare"

"I'm not surprised. Confucianism is full of contradictions. It's divided, and the factions can't sit together. Fu Qiubo has suppressed them for a long time by relying on his personal prestige. Their dissatisfaction with Fu Qiubo is accumulated. It's been a long time. Speaking of it, His Majesty doesn't like Confucianism today, and so does Emperor Gao. It's just that Emperor Gao had a Shusun Tong, but now there is Fu Qiubo. They all use their own methods to give Confucianism a chance to survive. , Confucianism is flourishing today, and it cannot be said that there is no credit for these two people, otherwise, Your Majesty would have driven away the Confucian scholars outside the Xunzi sect."

"They were dissatisfied with the supremacy of the Xun faction, and this incident has also shaken their interests. Xiao Fen took advantage of this incident to squeeze out Fu Qiubo's position and become the leader of Confucianism himself."

"However, this Xiao Sheng has a little bit of knowledge. The rest is that Fuqiubo is gone, and this position is not his turn. Even Hu Wusheng is more qualified than him. His gift is just a recipient, Hu Wusheng The Spring and Autumn Period is written by myself."

Wang Gao frowned, and suddenly remembered something, "By the way, wasn't the Gongyang School very popular before? What's Hu Wusheng's attitude towards Fu Qiubo?"

"Hu Wusheng was the first to write an article to reprimand Xiao Fen. His words were very ugly, and Xiao Fen ignored him."

"There is also Han Ying, who is studying poetry, also supporting Fu Qiubo. He even spat at Xiao Sheng in Taixue. He is directly attacking Xiao Fen's etiquette. He believes that etiquette is for enlightenment. It is conducive to enlightenment, advocates the simplification of etiquette, and counterattacks Xiao Fen's etiquette is not inferior.

Hearing these news, Wang Gao couldn't help laughing.

"There are people like this in the Confucian family. I should be worried, but I feel happy that someone can stand by Duke Fuqiu."

Master Sima Ji shook his head, "You don't have to worry. Confucianism is going to have a big problem this time. They probably think that the emperor can't do anything to them. There are Zhang Xiang, Luan Gong, Jia Yi, Lu Gong and others in the temple. They can sit back and relax but don't know If something happens, none of these people will stand by their side."

""Poetry" can be prospered, watched, grouped, and complained. There are four types of people."

Fuchubo sat in the classroom, carefully interpreting the poem.

And his lintel is no longer as lively as it used to be, and I can no longer see those disciples standing outside the door because they couldn't fit in. Only three people are still sitting below, listening to his lecture attentively. When there were few people coming, he changed his teaching method. He still explained the principles of scholarship very seriously. He taught two generations of Chu kings in a row. The posthumous title almost became Li. The first two kings of Chu were both famous for their benevolence to the people, good literature and erudition, and good governance. From this point of view, he is also good at teaching his disciples.

Liu Bo lowered his head and was seriously making notes.

He is not as smart as his elder brother, he can draw inferences from one instance, and he can develop his own knowledge at Liguan's age. However, he is not as lazy as his younger brother.

Just as Fu Qiubo was giving a serious lecture, there was suddenly another shout from outside.

"It's not Confucianism! It's a villain!!"

Fu Qiubo was taken aback, and looked at the article in his hand again.

But Liu Bo stood up abruptly. He was growing gradually. In terms of body shape, he was exceptionally father-like. He was already a head taller than his elder brother. He turned around and was about to walk out the door, but Fu Qiubo called out with a light smile. stopped him.

"It's okay. Bo, sit down."

Liu Bo's face was flushed, he wanted to say something, but he couldn't speak because he was clumsy, but he became more and more excited. He pointed out the door, and his eyes turned red.

Fuchubo looked outside the door, and just chanted softly:
"Cailing Cailing, the peak of the first sun~~"

"A man's words can't be believed~~"

"She Zhan She Zhan, Gou also has nothing to do~~"

"What do people say, Hu Deyan?"
