Han Dao world

Chapter 749
After discussing with Mrs. Tang, Liu Xie prepared a courtyard in the bookstore for Xu Jing, Lai Min and Meng Guang to live and work in.The yard is connected to the typesetting room, and the manuscripts they wrote can be typeset and printed in the first time, reducing the intermediate process as much as possible.

Mrs. Tang was a little worried.

The articles they wrote were sent out without being reviewed by the court?
Liu Xie said that the lecture has not yet started, it is just a trial run to go through the process.They just started to accept the task, so they will inevitably feel worried.Even if the imperial court's review is fair, they will feel that the constraints are too restrictive, so it's better to leave it alone and let them write freely.

When the discussion begins, the imperial court will send people to review, but it is only to review whether they have distorted the original intention, reversed black and white, and will not make a judgment on right or wrong.

This judgment is made by more readers.

This time-consuming discussion is not for the purpose of unifying the thoughts of the imperial court.The imperial court made conclusions at the Shiquge meeting and the Baihuguan meeting, which indeed achieved certain results, but the disadvantages were even greater.

Especially the most important point is that Confucianism has gone further and further on the road of mystification and prophecy.

This time, he wants to bring Confucianism back to the starting point, re-discuss the kingly way, discuss benevolent government, and discuss the people-oriented. Lost meaning.

Besides, even if it was judged by the imperial court, in the end, it wasn't those old officials who pretended to be powerful and had the final say in the name of the imperial court?

Rather than that, it's better to take a step back and let everyone speak in their personal capacity and have a good time.

Although Mrs. Tang had doubts, she saw that Liu Xie was confident, so she didn't say anything more.

Two days later, Mrs. Tang made the arrangements, and Xu Jing and the three officially entered the job.

Liu Xie brought Yang Biao, Zhou Zhong and other important officials to Taixue, and Fu Wan, Kong Rong and other Taixue also attended the ceremony.At the meeting, Liu Xie publicly stated that the imperial court would not interfere with the views of the three, as long as their articles did not distort the facts, the imperial court would not prohibit them.

If the imperial court disagreed with their views, they would write articles to refute them.

The final right and wrong is judged by the readers and judged by the facts.

Liu Xie finally said: Every article, every sentence, and even every word you write will be judged by history.You can make mistakes, but you can't violate your conscience, otherwise, you should be able to imagine what awaits you.

Xu Jing and the three bowed to express their willingness to accept such a challenge.

Kong Rong listened, feeling a little regretful.If I had known that the imperial court had this attitude, why should I refuse it at the beginning.It wasn't until I learned that although I didn't serve as the lead writer, I still had the opportunity to publish articles, so I felt a little more balanced.

Subsequently, Liu Xie raised the first topic: Dutian.

Now the world has different attitudes towards Dutian. If there is no accident, the discussion will also revolve around Dutian. You may wish to elaborate on this topic to warm up the discussion.

Xu Jing and the three readily obeyed.

In the morning of the next day, the first Di Bao published for ordinary people was published. In addition to the published speeches, there were three articles written by Xu Jing, Lai Min and Meng Guang respectively.

Except that the subject matter was all related to Du Tian, ​​the views of the three were sparked almost from the beginning.

Xu Jing believes that saving land is only a means, and the kingly way is the goal, and it is meaningless to discuss saving land apart from the kingly way.Therefore, before discussing whether Dutian is appropriate, we should first discuss how to implement the kingly way, and whether there are other feasible methods besides Dutian, and choose the best.

Lai Min clearly opposed Du Tian.

He believes that saving land is no different from robbery. It is essentially an unjust method to use the power in the hands of the court to directly deprive the people of their property.To use Dutian to realize the kingly way is to use improper means to achieve the goal of justice. It is wrong from the beginning, and it is impossible to get the correct result.

Meng Guang is the only one who supports Du Tian, ​​but his reasons are rather strange.

He believes that the root of the kingly way is the order of the superior and the inferior, and the difference between the noble and the humble.The amount of land occupied should be determined according to the status and granted by the court.The excess is overreach and should be deprived and redistributed.

Therefore, the land is not enough, and the ancient system should be restored, and all the land should be collected as public property, and then distributed by the court.If the people are allowed to buy and sell privately, it will inevitably lead to a situation where the strong bully the weak and the rich bully the poor.

The strong are rude and the rich are not benevolent. These are the root causes of chaos in the world. They should be eradicated, otherwise there will be no kingly way.

As soon as the Di Bao came out, it immediately caused an uproar in Taixue, especially Meng Guang's point of view.

The imperial court only wants to take away the part that exceeds the regulations.How about you, just take all the land into public ownership?

What is the difference between you and Wang Mang?
The mansion newspaper was published that morning, and Meng Guang's door was blocked at noon, and a group of people wanted to rush in to argue with Meng Guang.

Fortunately, there is a tiger guarding outside the bookstore, otherwise it would be hard to say whether Meng Guang would be able to have lunch.

Song Guo had expected this situation a long time ago.He was personally responsible for the safety of the bookstore, and said to those who came to argue, the emperor has an edict, and if you have different opinions, you can argue with Meng Guang or write articles to refute, but you are not allowed to have physical conflicts with Meng Guang.

Otherwise, even if Huben Lang doesn't use a knife, his fists and feet are not vegetarian.

Meng Guang and others are in charge of the literature, and we are in charge of the military.Our responsibility is to allow both of you to have a fair dialogue.

There were a few hot-tempered scholars who refused to listen and wanted to rush in, but were taught a lesson by Huben's iron fist, and realized that Song Guo was not joking, so he was honest.

With Huben's protection, Meng Guang, who was a little panicked at first, calmly appeared at the door and started a debate with others.

Lai Min was right. Meng Guang was not only good at learning, but also good at eloquence. He was eloquent and had a loud voice.

The first few people who rushed up were not his opponents at all, and they were rendered speechless by his arguments.

But things didn't stop there.

With the release of the Di Bao, the disturbance quickly spread from Taixue to the entire city of Chang'an. After reading the articles in the Di Di Bao, more people joined the discussion consciously or unconsciously, with varying degrees of intensity.

Not everyone has a tiger around them to maintain order, and there are not a few people who have a disagreement with each other.

Even the palace was affected. Because of differences of opinion, several Lang officials first sparred and spat at each other, and then became angry and fisted.Later, someone moved a weapon.

When Guang Luxun Deng Quan received the news and rushed to the scene, he had already seen blood.

Deng Quan was very angry, and scolded the troublemaker Lang Guan. After being fined and locked up, he found Liu Xie again and strongly demanded that Liu Xie issue an imperial edict, prohibiting the dissemination of mansion newspapers in the palace and discussing them, so as not to cause unnecessary controversy. conflict.

Liu Xie accepted half of Deng Quan's opinion, forbidding fighting in the palace, and could only convince others with reasoning.
