Daqin: Assist Zulong at the beginning and become a public enemy

Chapter 172
Chapter 172
Songhai City, a holy place of culture in the east, is a symbol of the pride of Qi State.

Since the beginning of the contention among schools of thought, all countries in the world have paid great attention to attracting students. The Jixia Academy was first established by Duke Huan of Qi, one of the overlords of the Spring and Autumn Period, as an official school of the State of Qi!
Entering the Warring States period, when King Wei of Qi arrived, the Jixia Academy, which was originally a government-run school in the Qi State, began to flourish!
Jixia Academy has been through the four generations of King Wei, King Xuan, King Xiang, and King Min for nearly a hundred years. It has always been the driving center of world learning, gathering the most cutting-edge academics and talents from all over China at that time.

At that time, all schools of thought at that time and later had representatives in Jixia Academy almost one after another.

Shen Dao of Legalism, Mencius of Confucianism, Xunzi of Confucianism and Legalism, Hui Shi and Gongsun Long of famous scholars, Tian Pian of debaters, Lu Zhonglian and Zhuang Xin of Strategists, Zou Yan of Yinyang School, Song Song of Taoism Lin and Yin Wen, Xu Xing from the farm family, etc.

The Jixia Academy has been going on for hundreds of years, and it has gathered the most elite people from various schools of thought, all-encompassing.At that time, Jixia Academy had the three most famous places in the world, Zhengming Hall, Daguo Academy, and Zhuzi Academy.

Among them, the Zhengming Hall is naturally a place where various schools of thought hold academic debates!There are ten major academic districts in the Great Guoxue Academy: Zhou, Lu, Wei, Chu, Han, Zhao, Yan, Song, Zheng, Wu and Yue, but there is no Daqin Academy that dominates the world in the west.

Because of the Jixia Academy, Qi State has absorbed all the talents from all over the world, and it has become a powerful country comparable to the first-class power Wei State at that time!The Jixia Academy is full of celebrities and elites, and it has become an inexhaustible treasure house of talents for the Qi State.

But I don't know when, the role of Jixia Academy is constantly changing.

The monarch of Qi only used Jixia Academy as a tool, but the talents who actually entered Jixia Academy were never granted official positions.

Over time, people from Jixia Academy also understood that they left one after another, which eventually led to the decline of Jixia Academy.

If the state of Qi is good at using these talents, it is still unknown which country will unify the world.

In the end, after Great Qin destroyed Qi, Confucianism split into two factions. One faction despised Great Qin’s independence from the world and moved to Sanghai City to establish Xiaoshengxianzhuang, while the other faction tried every means to seek refuge in Yingzheng.

Now there are three people in charge of Xiaoshengxian Village, the eldest is Fu Nian, the second is Yan Lu, and the third is Zhang Liang.

Now that Zhang Liang is wanted by the empire, Xiaoshengxianzhuang has also been partially impacted, and there are many spies from the Black Ice Platform monitoring him all day long.

Fortunately, Fu Nian and Yan Lu didn't compete for supremacy, so they didn't pay much attention to these restrictions.

Looking at the Little Sage Village in front of him, Zhao Gang had a smile on his face.

He had already informed Ying Zheng of his plan to establish Daqin Academy, and Ying Zheng was extremely supportive of Zhao Gang's plan.

Therefore, a suitable place was selected in Xianyang to build the Tai Academy for the Mohists.

But he didn't expect that the gate of Xiaoshengxianzhuang was closed tightly, and it looked like a catastrophe was imminent.

"Sir, should I call the door?"

Zhao Gang shook his head: "There are many Confucian rules. We are here just to have fun. If we call the door, wouldn't we be a warning?"

Li Mu himself is the God of War, but since he met Zhao Gang, he has greatly changed his view of Qin.

Even though Zhao Gang is idle now, Li Mu is used to continuing to follow him.

"What does the young master think?"

"Since Confucianism is running a school, it is naturally impossible to thank guests behind closed doors. Let's go and visit the Confucian school."

Schools are not exclusive to Confucianism. All schools of thought also set up schools in order to recruit students, firstly to spread their ideas, and secondly to attract students to join.

Zhao Gang and Zhao Gang already knew the location of the school after a short inquiry.

Just as he got closer, the noise inside could already be heard.

Although Li Mu is proficient in military tactics, he belongs to Ye Luzi, relying on decades of self-taught skills starting from a small soldier.This kind of literati and poets, the place where students spend their ink has never been done before. It is the first time I come here, I just feel very novel.

In the center of the academy, a huge map hangs there, with the names of the 36 counties of the Qin State carefully marked on it.

It's just that you can vaguely see the original names of the Six Kingdoms embroidered on it.

"This Confucianist is really dark under the lights. There is a black ice platform staring at him. How dare he do such tricks in such an obvious place."

Zhao Gang didn't take it seriously, and said with a light smile, "How can you look carefully if you don't look carefully? Besides, he can make excuses openly. After all, here are all scholars, so why would anyone betray Daqin?"

Li Mu smiled: "Yes!"

In the middle of the hall, two students were fighting with each other.

Zhao Gang leaned forward, pulled a student next to him to ask for advice, "Dare to ask, what are they arguing about?"

The student took a look at Zhao Gang and said, "It's the first time you've come here!"

"Oh, how can you tell?"

"We've been talking about this topic for a few days, but you don't seem to know. If it's not your first time here, why don't you know."

Zhao Gang suddenly understood and explained: "We are all merchants from Handan, and we came here just to see the style of Xiaoshengxian Village."

"Then you have come to the right place. Did you see that the student on the left is also from Handan, named Zhang Fei; the student on the right is Liu Cheng, a disciple of Master Yan Luer. What they are talking about is naturally the most popular one today. On a hot topic, His Majesty plans to move all the people from Yanmen Jiuyuan and Shangjun to Guanzhong."

"what?"

Zhao Gang cried out in surprise.

Ever since they came out of Shangjun Daying, they first found a place to rest and take a tour of the mountains and rivers, and then they proposed to visit Xiaoshengxianzhuang. They didn't know much about the outside world.

Now that he heard the news that Ying Zheng planned to abandon these states and counties, he was stunned.

"Abandon these places? What about the Huns?" Li Mu first thought of the Huns in northern Xinjiang.

Not to mention other places, Shangjun and Jiuyuan were the first line of Zhao's fight against the Xiongnu at the beginning. If it was lost to the Huns, it would be easy for the Huns to invade the Central Plains.

"Then I don't know. Don't disturb me. I have to listen to what brother Liu Cheng will say."

Li Mu was full of anxiety, but Zhao Gang next to him looked relieved.

Today's Qin State is like an overfed giant with digestive system problems.

The homeland of the Six Kingdoms cannot be digested yet, if they continue to swallow the Hetao area, it will only make Qin collapse faster.

The best way right now is to abandon Jiuyuan and Hetao and stabilize the Guanzhong foundation.

As long as Guanzhong is there, the world will surely be at your fingertips.

Obviously, the tips he left behind have played a role, and Qin should be able to get through the first stage of danger soon.

As long as Daqin retains the territory in Guanzhong, with Yingzheng in charge, it will be just around the corner to go east and regain the lost ground.

After all, Zhao Gang didn't believe that with Liu Bang's tendency of ruffians to pick things up, he would never be a capable opponent to win the government.
