Great Wei Nengchen

Cao Cao used both tactics and law enforcement like a mountain. His lifelong political dream was to establish a legalist regime, then enrich the country and strengthen the army, crusade against the barbarians in all directions, and create an indomitable feat!

"Hundred schools of thought, each with their own strengths, should preserve the inheritance and cultivate more talents. Now that the heroes are fighting for hegemony, it's just a matter of time to compete!"

Guo Jiashan has come up with ingenious schemes, has always admired the art of military strategist, and advocated the unification of the world by force. Don't look like a bad boy, he is very aggressive in his bones!

"The mentor has a spirit, bless the disciples, take this opportunity to revitalize the Taoist school, recruit countless children, and pass it on for thousands of years-the immeasurable celestial being!"

One of Xiao Yi's wishes for many years is to revitalize the Taoist sect, but, other Taoists practice in seclusion and rule by doing nothing, but he plays in the world of mortals and proves the Tao by killing, which can be regarded as a unique way!

Three people with one heart, the loess turns into gold, not to mention the three extremely intelligent and powerful people, working together, can turn the world upside down and turn the world around!

The strategy is determined, but how to implement it is still a big problem. After Confucianism prospered, other sects were constantly squeezed out. In order to protect themselves, all schools of thought either lived in seclusion in the mountains and did not care about world affairs, or wore Confucian cloaks and secretly Professor disciple, pitiful mess!

If you send envoys to visit each door one by one, not to mention the waste of time and energy, I am afraid it may not be successful. You must know that the real disciples of hundreds of schools are obsessed with academic research, do not seek wealth, and do not love money. Thousands of difficulties!

No matter how difficult things are, I am afraid of meeting smart people. Cao Cao, Xiao Yi, and Guo Jia sit together, arguing endlessly, or keeping silent, thinking hard, analyzing little by little, deliberating step by step, all kinds of pros and cons The gains and losses were all calculated, and finally came up with a way: "Follow the example of Jixia Academy, and gather all schools of thought!" '

Jixia Academy: also known as "Jixia School", an institution of higher learning in the Warring States period, located near Linzi-Jimen in Qi State, dedicated to discussing academics and teaching disciples. At its peak, it had thousands of scholars and became a Hundreds of academic holy places have promoted the development of Chinese civilization!

Scholars who come to the "Jixia Academy", regardless of academic sects, ideological views, political leanings, and countries, ages, qualifications, etc., can express their opinions. Scholars argue with each other, criticize, absorb, learn from each other, and learn from each other. , Constantly improve themselves, and a large number of talents have emerged: Mencius, Zouzi, Shenzi, Xunzi...all have stepped onto the podium and left a brilliant mark!

It is natural to learn from the valuable experience of the ancestors. Cao Cao immediately decided to officially announce to the world, let go of academic freedom, and spared no effort in manpower and material resources. Just outside the east gate of Xuchang, he built a large-scale university, hired famous teachers to give lectures, and taught disciples. , As for the name of the school...'Zhengmingtai! '

Scholars are indifferent by nature, they don't love officials, and they don't love money... But, literati look down on each other, and they can see through everything, except fame. For the fame of the sect, they throw their heads and blood, and do everything. The "Zhengming Platform" is a platform for fame and fortune, competing for fame and fortune!

When the time comes, talents from hundreds of schools will gather, and the prime minister will entertain them well, take care of food, clothing, housing and transportation, win over the hearts of scholars, and then select talents from them for their own use, and gradually replace decadent, dull, and ignorant Confucian officials. Years later, the country will be rich and the people strong, and the world will be invincible, and the things that will replace it will follow suit!

The construction of a "Zhengming Tower" is a huge project and the situation is complicated, so it is necessary to send important officials to sit in the town. The four counselors of Cao Ying, Guo Jia and Cheng Yu are proficient in strategy and have always gone out with the army. Xun Yu and Xun You have a stable personality and often sit in the rear. , should let 'Er Xun' come forward to preside over engineering affairs, but...

"The Jun decree of passing on the truth: conferred the title of Man Chong, Mao Jie as the servant of the Minister, responsible for allocating money and food, recruiting civilians, and building the "Zhengming Platform". !"

Cao Cao's tone was firm and unquestionable, his eyes concealed a coldness, leaving the two important ministers unused, but using newcomers instead, it seemed that his intentions were far-reaching!

"Promise! - The last general obeys orders, dare not neglect!"

Xiao Yi clasped his fists in salute and accepted the appointment, but there was a trace of worry in his heart, the turmoil of the assassination incident was far from subsided!

Chapter 908 The Confucian Counterattack!

"Abolishing a hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone is a national policy appointed by Emperor Xiaowu and carried out for hundreds of years. How can it be changed at will?"

"Confucianism is unparalleled in the world and has contributed to the enlightenment of all peoples. How can those heretical schools be compared?"

"Admonishment!...I'm waiting for admonition!...Desperately admonish!"

.............................................

The news of 'letting go of the freedom of academic theory and reappearing the contention of a hundred schools of thought' immediately caused an uproar. There are so many, the tough attitude is unprecedented!

This is not surprising. School struggles are extremely cruel, not weaker than fighting on the battlefield. The Confucian family has suppressed other schools for hundreds of years. , or even give up the moral bottom line, blood spattered three feet, no hesitation!

Back in the day, Confucius was the chief minister of the Lu State and acted as the prime minister. Only seven days after taking office, he took advantage of his power and killed the doctor, Shaozhengmao. ...'Confucius was benevolent and loving all his life, and even he abstained from killing, one can imagine how the disciples of later generations behaved!

Since ancient times, military generals have fought to the death, civil servants have died to remonstrate, and the weapons of Confucian scholars are the pens in their hands. In just a few days, officials, scholars, royal families, and foreign relatives... have made memorials one after another, opposing the freedom of academic theory and insisting on the exclusive respect of Confucianism. Like a storm, it quickly flooded Xiangfu's study room!

"A man, a real man, who does extraordinary things and establishes his reputation forever, how can he delay the military and state affairs for a few complaints?"

Cao Cao is a traitor in troubled times, his mind is as hard as iron, and the things that have been decided will never be changed. As for those memorials, they can't be wasted, let's make the best use of them!

Cao Cao immediately ordered that a fat sheep be slaughtered, peeled and cleaned, and then placed in the yard, using memorials instead of firewood, and roasted the whole sheep.

After the memorials are burned and the fat sheep is roasted, they are cut into countless small pieces and given to all civil and military officials to devour them on the spot, no one is an exception... Is Cao Cao telling Confucian scholars to hold the knife handle by themselves? , who dares to disobey the order of the Prime Minister's Mansion, just like that roast sheep, will be hacked into pieces without a whole body!

At the same time, the construction of the "Zhengming Terrace" also started. Xiao Yi personally went out and chose a picturesque place with mountains and rivers forty miles east of Xuchang City. I have designed a model of the city, which includes podium, school, dormitory, canteen, playground, reading area, leisure area... everything is available!

Xiao Yi also mobilized [-] garrisons and a large amount of money to use exclusively in construction projects. The quality must be guaranteed and the appearance must be guaranteed. This is the highest institution of higher learning in the future, so it must not be sloppy at all. Therefore, Xiao Yi is stationed on the construction site and supervises it personally. The progress of the project is really hard work!

All of a sudden, there was a rush of people, cars and horses, countless money, grain, wood, bricks, boulders, and sand... all gathered from all directions, and the soldiers were sweating like rain, rushing to work day and night, and the construction was extremely fast. A university like no other in the world, Quickly rose from the ground...

"Once the Confucianism Platform is built and the schools of thought reappear in the world, the orthodox position of our Confucianism may be in jeopardy!"

The project is in full swing, and the Confucian scholars are very anxious. They claim to "kill one's life for benevolence, sacrifice one's life for righteousness", but they are really not afraid of death. , I can only find another way, since the memorial is useless, then demonstrate!

Demonstration is also an old method of Confucianism. Whenever the government's policy conflicts with Confucianism, they will gather their companions and besiege the government's office, using the power of public opinion to force the opponent to submit. Of course, the target of attack must be selected:

The Great Han Imperial Palace is not good, everyone knows that the little emperor is a puppet and has no real power at all. If everyone went to besiege the imperial palace, it would be like worshiping the Taoist Lord in a temple and simply entering the wrong temple gate!

The prime minister's mansion is not good either. Prime Minister Cao holds great power and is in charge of all military and political affairs. His words carry the most weight. The problem is, this treacherous hero is ruthless. If everyone besieged him, it would be tantamount to forcibly breaking into the palace of the king of hell. He is looking for death!

There is no need to go to the imperial palace, and the prime minister dare not go. After repeated consideration, there is only one place, the 'Contesting Platform'. As long as the project is stopped, there is no place for disputes, and the schools of thought will not be able to stand up!

After making up their minds, some Confucian giants quickly joined forces to encourage students and disciples to prepare to make a big fuss. As for the leader, it is the Chinese doctor-Kong Rong!

Kong Rong, styled Wenju, is the No.19 grandson of Confucius. After becoming an official, he served as Prime Minister of Beihai, known as "Kong Beihai". Feeling and reasoning, he should also stand up and defend Confucianism!

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

The fourth year of Jian'an-summer, July [-]th, auspicious day of the zodiac, five elements belong to wood, benefit in the east, advisable: offering sacrifices, praying for blessings, begging for a child... Avoid: traveling, receiving guests, quarreling...

Xuanwu Street - Zhongdofu's Mansion. At dawn, Kong Rong got up early. After bathing, he wore a Confucian crown, purple and gold clothes, a white jade belt around his waist, and the Spring and Autumn Period - the costume of the great military officer of the State of Lu. This is The ancestral costumes of the Confucian family have been worn by descendants for hundreds of years, and will continue to be passed down...

"Kong's disrespectful descendants, enlightened the ancestors and descendants, treacherous ministers were in power, cholera ruled the law, bullied the emperor above, suppressed the officials below, and now issued chaos, threatening the foundation of Confucianism... The descendants of future generations are incompetent, so they can only use the power of their ancestors to deter them Treacherous, defend Confucianism!"

After tidying up his clothes, Kong Rong brought his two sons, Kong Li and Kong Le, to the Kong family temple. They burned incense and worshiped, knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times, and offered a sheep, a pig, and a jug of wine. After offering sacrifices to the ancestors and praying for a while, please take down the spirit card of the ancestor-Confucius. If you want to call on thousands of Confucian scholars, this is the best banner! '

"The Master said: To govern with virtue, it is like the North Star, where all the stars live in it!"

"The Master said: Those who are virtuous must have words, those who have words do not need to be virtuous, those who are benevolent must have courage, and those who are brave do not need to be benevolent!"

"The Master said: If the Dao is governed, if it is equalized it will be punished, and the people will be spared without shame..."

Next, Kong Rong walked out of the mansion with his two sons holding the spirit tablet, followed by dozens of servants, each holding a banner with famous lines from "The Analects" written on it, while slowly Walk slowly and read aloud...

With the spread of Confucian culture, the reputation of Confucius has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Wherever the tablet of Confucius goes, pedestrians kneel down and salute, showing respect and respect. Confucian scholars join from time to time, and the scale of the team continues to expand!

An hour later, Kong Rong's parade team had grown to more than a thousand people, including imperial officials and Confucian scholars in blue shirts. Everyone recited "The Analects of Confucius", filled with righteous indignation, and vowed to defend the status of Confucianism to the death. Seeing that the time was ripe, Kong Rong led the team Go out the east gate and go straight to the 'Zhengming Terrace'...

There are still tens of thousands of people following behind the team, waiting to watch the excitement. This is also one of the bad habits of the Han people, but there are also some people who want to take this opportunity to see "Opening up the theory of freedom and reappearing the contention of a hundred schools of thought" 'things, how much chance do you have...

For this demonstration, Kong Rong was fully confident. He had repeatedly calculated that how countless Xiao Yi would respond would be losers!

If Xiao Yi was afraid and did not dare to resist the authority of Confucianism, Kong Rong would use vicious words to humiliate him well and let out a bad breath... Then he led the believers and demolished the "Contesting Platform". If not, the status of Confucianism will be preserved!

On the contrary, Xiao Yi was not afraid, and would definitely send troops to suppress it. Once the two sides clashed, he would smash the "Master's Spirit Card" and pour a pot of dirty water on Xiao Yi's head, making him a public enemy of Confucianism, and everyone would criticize him Now, even if you can't scold him to death, you can scold him badly!

But, Kong Rong was too happy too early. The team ran into trouble not long after they left the city. It wasn't because someone was blocking them, but because God was not good...
