At dawn, Pei Jiaoran left Li Xiujing's house. As usual, board the bus to Jieshuai Mansion. Today she met with Tian Zizhan, Cui Yuzhang and others here.

Of course, they are not the only ones here today. There were also the commanders of the other two towns and aristocratic families with a certain appeal, such as the Zhuge family and the Lu family, who were well-known families and occupied a certain position in the Chang'an court, they all came together.

Wait for the maid to serve tea. Pei Jiaoran winked at Tian Zizhan. Then he lowered his head and sipped the tea.

All I heard was Tian Zizhan said: "I invite you all here today because I want to talk about Xiang Xu."

Except for Cui Yuzhang, everyone present here had surprise flashing in their eyes.

Pei Jiaoran pursed his lips after catching a glimpse of the changes in their eyes.

The so-called Xiangxu refers to education. Although the three towns worship martial arts, they also value Confucianism. In addition, this place is adjacent to Qilu in the east, which also has certain cultural advantages. However, most of the prefectures established in the three towns and states were mainly private schools.

The founders of private schools are basically from powerful families. Those who can enroll are mostly those with financial assets, and a few are admitted because of their talents. The classics and state-governing experience taught by aristocratic families in private schools are their secrets that have survived through hardships, and they must be reserved. Naturally, the attitude towards the court will be more biased towards Heshuo.

The reason why she proposed the establishment of Xiangxu was to use the imperial court to establish the official Xiangxu and better integrate the culture of Chang'an into it. To prevent the three towns from continuing to use Xiangxu to strip away the imperial decrees. Also, no longer allowing the Sanzhen family to have a monopoly in this area is the best attitude Chang'an has given to the knowledgeable people in Heshuo.

The first person to speak was Fu.

"Although I am in Heshuo, I have also heard people say that there are no virtuous people in Chang'an, and they are ashamed not to express themselves in writing. To be virtuous is to be talented, and

The door is expensive. The style of Jinshi Qingming Sutra. He also values ​​literary words and despises scriptures. Mrs. Fu stroked her beard and said slowly: "And we in Heshuo are proud of lifelong Buddhist scriptures." "

As soon as Fu opened his mouth, he pointed out the shortcomings of the imperial court's establishment of the prefecture. It's true that Chang'an is capable, but our three towns are better than you in terms of cultural heritage.

"Ming Jing has the advantage of Ming Jing. Don't those who prefer literary and rhetoric in Chang'an need to study the meaning of the scriptures? Why should Mr. Fu be prejudiced?"

Hearing Pei Jiaoran's words, Cui Yuzhang looked over quietly.

The establishment of Xiangxu was a means for rulers in past dynasties to stabilize their political power. After the Yongjia Rebellion in the former Qin Dynasty, Fu Jian established Xiangxu in Chang'an. He was a scholar of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and he often served as a servant. If he heard that he was not in the right way, he would ban all classics. No matter who is the emperor, they all want to get this thing done. They hope that Xiangxu will support the imperial court and that the talents they train will also be oriented towards the imperial court.

Cui, who passed down his family through Confucian classics, also knew the importance of establishing Xiangxu. But establishing Xiangxu is just a means. If we really want to make Xiangxu fully oriented to the court, we still have a long way to go. Because aristocratic families can still rely on their Confucian skills and wealth to quietly infiltrate into the prefectures established by the country.

"Xiangong Pei, there are many Confucian scholars in Heshuo. If the imperial court wants to establish a preface, then I would like to ask whether the talents in the imperial court are really qualified for this position? I am afraid that they are used to writing words and have long forgotten the meaning of the classics. It must be clean and tidy." Zhuge's man interjected with a smile.

Hearing this, Pei Jiaoran raised his lips and sneered. These people are really used to being domineering in Heshuo. There are not only aristocratic families in Heshuo, but also Chang'an and Hedong. There are not many aristocratic families in the south of the Yangtze River. If you really only knew how to write and not teach Confucian classics, you would have been kicked out of the court a long time ago. Talk about being passed down for hundreds of years.

Looking at a few people, Pei Jiaoran smiled, "Since you all have a lot of objections to this. Marshal Tian Jie mentioned to me before that if the court wants to establish a preface, it must be convincing. Why not make friends with literature and win with debate? burden."

She knew that these people were very proud of their family's ancestral scriptures. They also know that their monopoly on classics is the foundation for their livelihood. If the court wants to touch other people's interests, it will naturally have to pay a price. There may be no bottom to this price. But both she and the court were willing to pay this price.

When Tian Zizhan stopped talking, he was stunned. Seeing everyone looking at him, he hurriedly answered: "It is true that it will happen in five days. What do you think?"

People from the Zhuge, Lu, and Fu families all frowned in unison. It will be done in five days. Isn't this too hasty? It can be seen that Tian Zizhan looked like he could not tolerate discussion, but he could only nod in agreement.

After sending the three people away, Tian Zizhan returned. He looked at Pei Jiaoran who was calm and composed on the side.

"Ms. Pei, do you really want to argue with them?"

"Can't I?" Pei Jiaoran smiled, then stood up and looked at Cui Yuzhang meaningfully, and then at Tian Zizhan, "I remember it said in "The Book of Jin. The Biography of Fu Jian", 'Come to the Imperial Academy and test the students' classics and principles. , eighty-three people were promoted to the top. Since the Yongjia Rebellion, Xiang Xu was unknown, and Jian Zhixu paid great attention to Confucianism. Wang Meng organized the customs and promoted political principles, and the school gradually flourished. Guan, Long Qingyan, and the people Fengle, from Chang'an to the various states, there are locust trees and willow trees along the road. There is a pavilion for twenty miles and a post for forty miles. Travelers take food on the way and merchants and merchants line the road. The people sing: "Chang'an Avenue, Clamping poplar tree. The red wheel goes down, and the luan roosts above. Talented people gather together to teach me. ', I hope you understand, Tian Jieshuai, that this move is a good thing that benefits the country and the people. I can keep your bottom line, but I also hope that Commander Ji can understand where the court's bottom line is. "

"This is natural." Tian Zizhan said in a deep voice.

"Then I'll take my leave." After saying that, Pei Jiaoran turned and left.

As soon as Pei Jiaoran boarded the carriage, Jinwu Guards immediately stepped forward and tapped the wall of the carriage.

"Has everything been arranged?" Pei Jiaoran said leisurely.

"Yes. Just waiting for you to go back and close the net, people have already taken the bait."

Hearing this, Pei Jiaoran nodded. "Let's go to the hospital first."

Since Wu Lingjia was assassinated last time, she had allowed her to stay temporarily in the hospital, firstly to recover from her injuries, and secondly, to see what those people wanted to do. At the same time, they found Tian Zizhan and asked her to arrange for someone to take care of him in the hospital.

When she arrived, Wu Lingjia had just taken medicine. Looking through the handbook by the window.

"Is the injury better?" Pei Jiaoran asked with a smile.

"Okay, that's almost it." Wu Lingjia saw her coming and handed the tea cup over, "Are you planning to close the net when you come today?"

Wenwen raised his lips and said, "Well, it's almost time anyway. I originally wanted to give them some dignity, but since they don't want to, I can't force it, right?"

"However, let's not go too far. After all, they are all sent by His Majesty. If we make too much trouble, it will not be good for you or me."

Holding Wu Lingjia's hand, Pei Jiaoran said with a deepening smile: "You can rest in peace and recuperate, I have a sense of discretion on this matter. I have already arranged the establishment of Xiangxu. But those people are not convinced by Chang'an, so I Make an agreement with them to compete in five days. How about you come then?"

"I will definitely live up to Qingjia's expectations." Wu Lingjia and her looked at each other and smiled.
