Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 748 I predict that your school will perish!
There is no perfect school in the world.

Many schools of Confucianism have their own advantages, and of course they also have their own disadvantages.

The Gongyang faction also enjoys a high reputation in later generations, and is deeply loved by later generations because of its bravery, daring to fight, and violent style. However, the disadvantages of the Gongyang faction cannot be ignored. These people are the largest in the Confucian school A batch of magic sticks.

Probably because the principles of the Gongyang School were passed down orally. From the very beginning, they have brought some different and common Confucian colors, such as Qilin. A detailed discussion was carried out, and the image of the unicorn and the meaning it represented were proposed. People said that the unicorn was to persuade the king, and Gongyang said that the unicorn was because they felt that there was such a thing.

They still like to calculate and divination, they attach great importance to the destiny, and this trend develops more and more fiercely. Divination, any vision of heaven and earth must be linked to the temple, and knowledge becomes more and more difficult to understand, and the gods and gods talk about it, thus falling into a disadvantage in the dispute between ancient and modern scriptures.

Even history books have been influenced by them, and the whole text has some mythological color.

The Guliang Sect, which is not highly regarded by others, is considered to be a weak Guliang Sect. On the contrary, it despises these too mysterious things, and has repeatedly asked for the prohibition of prostitution. Therefore, every school has more or less existence. with flaws.

Hu Wusheng has led the Kanyu family away.

Zhang Buyi urged him very tightly.

Hu Wusheng is cautious. Although the Gongyang School has ushered in a great development in his hands, he still does not allow these scholars to have too many unconventional behaviors, and he can still suppress them. But now, he has left Chang'an and is working on Gaining power and developing rapidly, the Ram School couldn't sit still.

These people are irritable and brave, and they are like this for everything. Confucians have always felt that there is still a gap between themselves and Huang Lao, and they cannot rush to declare war on them.

But Gongyang didn't think so. After they heard the rumor about Qilin, they immediately slapped their thighs. What a great opportunity!Fuck him!
Kirin is not important, in fact, they are just waiting for an opportunity.

Even if they heard that there was a three-legged dog in the mountains, they would write a letter to fight with Huang Lao. These reckless people were unwilling to wait.

But this behavior of bringing the entire Confucianism into the water made some people very upset.

When Shen Pei led his disciples to the lecture site of the Gongyang School in Taixue, there were really many people here, mighty and mighty, and they were talking loudly about Qilin at the moment, talking with great interest How to launch a big counterattack against Huang Lao.

Seeing Shen Pei coming, the leading Confucian scholars were very happy, and hurried forward to hold his hand.

"Mr. Shen Pei has finally arrived! We have been waiting for you!"

The one who spoke was called Zuo Xian. He had studied rams with Hu Wusheng for more than two years, but this time the unicorn incident was not caused by him alone, but by the joint efforts of many rams. Zuo Xian was pushed to the position of leader only because he was more knowledgeable among them.Shen Pei's complexion was not good. Looking at the excited rams, he couldn't help asking: "I heard that you all got the unicorns, which proves that the Holy Son of Heaven is alive. I came here to see the unicorns."

Hearing this sentence, the rams who were still smiling suddenly frowned.

What does it mean?
Zuo Xian was also a little surprised, "Mr. Shen Pei, the rumor of the unicorn is not from the ram, but from the folks. How can there be a unicorn here?"

"You don't have any here?? I see that you have written articles, and the description of the unicorn is quite detailed. I thought the unicorn is here!"

"Your Majesty said that we should dedicate the Qilin to him, and no one should keep it private!"

"You can't just hide the unicorn and not dedicate it to His Majesty just because you see that it is a benevolent beast!"

Zuo Xian was stunned, "Mr. Shen Pei, what do you mean by this?! What kind of hidden unicorn?!"

Not only Zuo Xian, but the rest of the rams are also a little angry at the moment, hiding the unicorn? ?What is this? ?
Shen Pei frowned, and reprimanded them: "You don't need to hide any more! I have already sent people to inquire, and those who talk about Qilin, tell me that they just saw strange beasts, it is you Tell them that it is a unicorn, and the appearance and characteristics of the unicorn are all told by you, and they are also very detailed. Your Majesty gave me seven days to catch the unicorn. I searched and searched, and finally found that it was only you People have really seen Qilin, then Qilin must be here with you!!"

"That unicorn is a benevolent beast! It was revealed to the world in response to His Majesty! You people, how dare you hide the benevolent beast?! What is your intention?!"

Many rams were silent for a long time, unexpectedly speechless.

Zuo Xian looked around and said in a low voice: "Shen Peigong, this unicorn is not important, what is important is the significance of this matter. This kind of matter cannot be delved into."

"How can it be unimportant? Very important!"

"Your Majesty was very excited when he heard the news about Qilin. He clamored to see Qilin to prove his prosperity. Now he just wants to see Qilin with his own eyes, and then show the ministers that he has ordered a banquet, which will be held in seven days. All the ministers, show them the unicorn, quickly take out the unicorn and let His Majesty watch it!"

Zuo Xian only felt that the whole person was not well.

There are rumors of a unicorn, if I try to create momentum for His Majesty, His Majesty will happily accept it, won't it be good?What kind of unicorn are you looking for? ?Is this something normal people would do? ?

He was silent for a long time, and said helplessly, "Mr. Shen Pei, we really don't have unicorns here."

"Where did the unicorn go??"

"I"

Zuo Xian simply stopped concealing it and asked, "Shen Peigong, don't you know if there is a unicorn?"

"I know what, I haven't seen it, but you, you have seen a unicorn, you should know if it exists."

Shen Pei waved his hand, "Okay, I won't tell you any more. Your Majesty has issued an order, and everyone must obey it. Your Majesty has spent a lot of trouble. If you don't dedicate the unicorn to Your Majesty, then you will have to bear His Majesty's responsibility." Angry. Once His Majesty loses his temper, don't forget Zhang Yuewu's end to them!!"

After Shen Pei finished speaking, he turned and left.

On the way back, his disciples were also a little curious. They were all ready for a big fight with the Ram School. In order to be able to fight this fight well, they had recharged their batteries from the morning. Why not? hit it?
"Shen Peigong? Didn't you say you were going to catch the lowly Confucian scholars? Why didn't you do it? Although they like and dislike them, they are small in number, so they may not be our opponents!"

A disciple held the sharp sword at his waist and asked in doubt.

Shen Pei scolded: "Don't clamor to do something as soon as you hear something! You are Confucian scholars! You are not street knights! Don't draw your sword at every turn! What you do must be worthy of the books you read!!"

The disciples hurriedly lowered their heads.

"The teacher is right!"

Only then did Shen Pei say: "Although our ancestors called all schools lowly Confucianism, they didn't encourage us to fight with each other. No matter how stupid Gongyang is, that's our Confucianism. How can we attack our fellow sects? It is wrong to cause Confucianism to become more intense infighting. We have to use other methods to solve this matter. The best way is to make these people realize their mistakes and keep them away from these prophecies. There is nothing for them to realize Mistakes are more useful."

"They're definitely starting to struggle now, and when they come to plead guilty, we can help them."

A disciple asked suspiciously: "Then what if they don't realize their fault and ignore it?"

Shen Pei suddenly grabbed the saber at his waist, "Then I have to help them reflect!!"

As Shen Pei said, the Gongyang School is completely silent at the moment. Everyone panicked and said nothing, and there was no such lively scene just now.

"Secret the unicorn?? Your Majesty really thinks that we hide the unicorn??"

A young scholar stood up hastily, "If your Majesty doesn't see Qilin, he will definitely be furious. Let's hurry to find Qilin."

Before he could finish his sentence, the senior brother at the side slapped him hard on the head.

"What unicorn are you looking for? Don't you know if the unicorn is in your heart??"

Someone also explained: "Kirin will not take the initiative to appear in front of the world. It is said that Kirin will only appear once every 400 years. This time he appears. If you want to invite him, you must wait 400 years."

"You speak very well, next."

Everyone couldn't come up with a specific plan for a while.

The main reason is that they didn't expect that His Majesty would be so serious. With His Majesty's flattering personality, after learning about such things, shouldn't they be happy to obey their letter and celebrate the new year of Qilin, so as to confirm the dominant position of Confucianism?Why do you still have to meet some Qilin?Is it important to be a unicorn?Shouldn't it be His Majesty's virtue? ?
Zuo Xian was completely panicked at this moment, some of these rams had become monks halfway, and some had just studied for a year or two.

Hu Wusheng was not around, and they were immediately in trouble.

They didn't think about such a situation, and someone suggested: "Why don't we go to Gongsun Jun to help us find a solution?"

The Gongsunjun they are talking about is Gongsunhong. During these days, Gongsunhong has completely started his own counterattack, telling everyone what it means to be a late bloomer. This year, he jumped from Neishifu to Yushifu and became a serious official of the Sangongfu. The Sangong was restructured, but the Yushi did not move. , but I heard that he is deeply loved by the imperial censor, it is estimated that sooner or later this temple will have a place for him.

But Zuo Xian shook his head, "When we were about to submit a letter, he opposed us. We didn't obey at that time, but now something happened, how can we ask him for help?"

"Anyway, he is also a well-known Confucian in our Gongyang. Besides, he is in the Yushifu. With this strength, we will not be hindered by our own death. We must not embarrass the school."

After discussing with everyone for a long time, they finally decided to go to this great scholar for help.

"Father Zhong, this is the impeachment list for this month."

"I've read it carefully, and only three impeachments are accurate, and the rest of them will need to be investigated further, and these three points can be directly arrested!"

Liu An handed some documents to Liu Heng, and expressed his views seriously.

During these days, he has always followed Liu Heng and learned a lot of useful things from Liu Heng. Liu Heng probably also intends to train him, and often entrusts him with some important matters.

Hearing the result of his disposal, Liu Heng nodded, casually put away those things, and asked, "Are you a little busy these days?"

Liu An smiled wryly, "Father Zhong, it's not that I can't calm down, it's because some people don't want me to calm down. These rams are attacking in groups. They are too deceptive."

Liu Heng blinked, "Then why haven't you made a move yet?"

"Because of filial piety? You can completely hide yourself and teach those old men secretly. In this way, you won't let yourself bear any bad reputation, and you won't have to go secretly when you are on business. Look at those academic newspapers."

Liu An said calmly: "The dispute between Huang Lao and Confucianism is an academic matter. What does it have to do with me?"

"As the prince of a big man, I shouldn't personally intervene in these matters."

Hearing Liu An's answer, a smile finally appeared on Liu Heng's face, "That's right, I've made progress, Ann, let me ask you, what school do you think Emperor Gao belongs to?"

"Emperor Gao doesn't belong to any school, only the school is working hard to adapt to him."

"Yes, but what school do you belong to?"

"I also don't belong to any school. The Huang-Lao school belongs to me. I won't wait for the school to adapt to me. I will make Huang-Lao the school that suits me best, because Huang-Lao is tolerant, includes everything, and is easy to change."

Liu Heng clapped his hands lightly, "You have always regarded school affairs as your main business, which made me very worried, but now that I hear your words, I am not worried anymore, Mr. Huang belongs to you , Well said. A king cannot belong to any school. Once the king starts to belong to a school, then this school will override the king, and the king will be restricted by the school. This may even interfere with the long-term strategy of governing the country and cause Very serious consequences."

"When the interests of the school are enough, they will be fixed and no longer willing to make changes. They will eliminate all those who want to change and want to damage their own interests. Therefore, the king must know how to choose. give up the long-term future”

"Father Zhong, I understand, don't worry, I will never participate in these things."

Liu Heng smiled lightly, and suddenly turned his head to look at an official beside him.

"Gongsun Hong, what about you? Do you understand?"

Gong Sunhong, who was busy with his affairs, hurriedly got up and asked, "What did you say?"

Liu Heng laughed loudly, "Ann, look, this is the real official who handles affairs. Don't be moved by foreign affairs, and concentrate on handling your own affairs."

"I'm discussing with Father Zhong about the dispute between Huang Lao and Confucianism. Father Zhong told me not to participate in these things."

Liu An said with a smile, Gong Sunhong suddenly realized, and then saluted Liu Heng, saying: "Please rest assured, I will not participate in these, I will take care of my own affairs with peace of mind."

"No!"

"You have to get involved in this!"

Liu Heng said solemnly: "You are different from the prince. As a courtier and a Confucian of Gongyang, you are naturally obliged to keep Gongyang from going astray and guide them in the right direction. This is your responsibility, yes. You can't avoid it, you know?"

Gongsun Hong saluted again, "I understand."

Liu Heng continued to lower his head and started to do his own thing, but Liu An took Gongsun Hong to the side, Liu An pondered for a moment, and then said: "Actually, Father doesn't like your Gongyang stuff very much. , if you go on like this, within 50 years, you will perish, the whole school will disappear, completely perish, no one will read your articles again, and there will never be a single Gongyang school in the whole world Disciple, no one will even say the name of the Ram School, what a bleak ending this is, you can't do this anymore."

"It's just too dangerous."

Gongsun Hong was taken aback for a moment, and then said: "It is true that he has gone astray, but it is not the case. There are more than tens of thousands of people governing the Gongyang School in the world, and even if it declines, it will not be so fast. What Your Highness said is still a bit exaggerated "

Liu An shook his head, "Oh, you misunderstood."

"I mean, if you do this again, and deliberately disgust me, when I ascend the throne, I will kill you all and burn all your books. Whoever mentions the word ram again, I will He will kill the family, so it will be very fast, about three or four years, and you will disappear completely. So what I said is not true, you have to think about it, you can't just look at the present, you have to think about the consequences, right? "

Gong Sunhong was taken aback, and looked at Liu An in horror, "Your Highness has a kind heart, how could you do such a thing?"

"I just said casually, if those people come to you, you can tell them instead of me. I have a kind heart, but there are some people under my command who are not very obedient. For example, that Zhang Husband, he came to me the day before yesterday and said that he would lead the army to bloodbath your rams. I persuaded him. I have not ascended the throne yet, how could I do this? Are you right? You should persuade your fellow disciples well, let I will continue to be a benevolent prince, so you can do your own research with peace of mind, how about it?"

Gongsun Hong took the order again, this time, his expression was obviously much more serious.

Not far away, Liu Heng, who was working with his head down, was concentrating on handling the paperwork in front of him, and he didn't seem to hear their conversation at all.

After Gong Sunhong finished his day's work, he just returned home when he saw those fellow students blocking the door. At that moment, he probably remembered the words of the prince. He shuddered suddenly and took a deep breath.

"You guys are in for a big deal!!"
