After five years of teaching support, Daming became an empire on which the sun never sets.

Chapter 331 Restoring the Controversy of Hundred Schools of Thought
"Okay!" The generals were gearing up, eager to try.

"However..." Zhu Yuanzhang changed his tone, "Mr. Qin's students have studied with him for a long time. It is estimated that his students will occupy several seats among the top ten war gods. You can only fight for the remaining seats."

"Jixia Academy accommodates hundreds of schools, including military strategists of course. The ten gods of war belong to the outstanding talents of military strategists. I heard that Mr. Qin talked about guerrilla warfare, sparrow warfare, and the three-three system... I will let the princes teach you and so on. "

"Follow the order!" The generals said.

I began to look forward to it in my heart: they had never heard of these tactics.

"Liu Bowen is the vice president of Jixia Academy for the time being." Zhu Yuanzhang continued, "Liu Bowen has not yet reached the level of Xunzi in terms of learning, but his attainments in Yin and Yang have already reached it."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your reward!" Liu Bowen was very excited when he heard the words: Now it's my turn to go down in history!
I am one of the three Confucianists, so I should be punished like other Confucians.But now, instead of being punished by the emperor, he was promoted to be the first vice president of Jixia Academy!

The name is loud enough.

After the glory of Jixia Academy, his name will last forever.

Moreover, the first dean, Qin Yu, lived in seclusion. Among the three sages, the sloppy gods and gods could not see the end, and the emperor and empress were just decorations.

In other words, he is the real master of Jixia Academy.

The ministers had no objection when they heard the words, and felt that Liu Bowen barely deserved his name.Although his military ability, political ability, and literary attainments are not so dazzling, his yin and yang spells and stargazing ability are very strong.

Before Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor, he made many calculations about major events in the world, and they were all accurate.

He also prayed for rain several times successfully.

In the eyes of the common people, he is a god-man.

And the vice-principal of Jixia Academy needs a strange person like him who is proficient in metaphysics.

"However, you can no longer use the identity of Confucianism, you must use the identity of Yinyang School." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Because your attainments in Yinyang Shushu are far higher than your attainments in other fields."

"And the reason why we let you be the vice president is because of your talent in this area."

"Minister, obey the order!" Liu Bowen said.

The knowledge of yin and yang spells does not belong to Confucianism, to be precise, it belongs to the school of yin and yang.But because the Yinyang family has long since ceased to exist, he dared not call himself the Yinyang family.

Emperor, this abducted Liu Bowen, the head of the three Confucianists in the early Ming Dynasty, out of Confucianism?The crowd was dumbfounded.

"You wrote this, right?" Zhu Yuanzhang took out a few more sheets of paper wrapped with sesame seed cakes. There was still a lot of greasy on them, but they were filled with words, and he read: "This city has been conquered by the royal family, and a courtyard of mountains and rivers Yongleping. Bald people come to Wenmoyuan, and half of the heroes return home."

"It was written by the minister, Your Majesty." Liu Bowen admitted generously.

During the few days in confinement by the emperor, he could only eat sesame cakes every day, and at the same time worried that he would be liquidated, so he wrote "Song of sesame cakes" in the palace, predicting the great events that will happen in the world.

What the emperor read just now was the first prophecy poem he wrote.

"Your yin and yang skills are quite good!" said the emperor.

"The emperor's reputation is too high." Liu Bowen said humbly.

When the officials heard the prophecy poems he wrote, they all obeyed.

"Shangshu Shan Anren of the Ministry of Industry is the main person in charge of the construction of the Jixia Academy. We will start construction on a certain day! It must be magnificent and majestic, with the highest observatory towering into the sky." Zhu Yuanzhang continued, "And it must be completed as soon as possible. Now the treasury is full and there is no shortage of money.”

"I obey the order." Shan Anren stepped out of the train.

"This imperial decree was polished and corrected by Song Lian, and announced to the world the next day." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"According to the order!"

All the ministers bowed down one after another to receive the decree.

……

"Second." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "It is to restore hundreds of schools, including Confucianism, Legalism, Taoism, Mohism, Yin-Yang School, famous schools, miscellaneous schools, peasant schools, novelists, strategists, military schools, doctors..."

"There are also representatives of novelists, namely Luo Guanzhong and Shi Naian."

"Since we want to build the Jixia Academy, we must learn from others and absorb the essence of civilization from all the ancient sages."

"Restore the Hundred Families?" The officials were shocked again when they heard this.

"Your Majesty, the theories of various schools of thought were already burned during the time of Qin Shihuang." Li Shanchang stood out of the train and began to play, "The classics of the sages and sages have basically been burned."

"It has been more than 1000 years since the first emperor burned the books. If the emperor wants to restore the hundred schools, he may not be able to do so."

"That's not necessarily true." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "You said that the classics of the philosophers were burned and dried up by the first emperor. Why did the "Tao Te Ching", "Huang Di Jing", "Poetry", "Book" and other classics be handed down? Why Mohism, Taoism, The Yin-Yang Family, still passed down to the present? Liu Bowen is the Yin-Yang Family, but he didn’t dare to use the Yin-Yang Family’s identity before.”

"Let me tell you the reason. Emperor Shi Huang didn't burn it completely at that time, so there must be many omissions."

"In addition, it is also the most important point. At that time, Qin Shihuang deceived Confucianism, only those cunning warlocks. That is to say, the descendants of various schools of thought were not killed at that time."

"As long as the descendants of the various schools of thought are still alive, their knowledge will be passed on."

"Later, all schools of thought except Confucianism disappeared, all because of the imperial court's exclusive respect for Confucianism and the suppression of other schools of thought. As a result, other schools of thought were introduced. They did not dare to expose themselves and could only pass it on secretly."

"I remember that in Li Shimin's time, he married a daughter of the Mohist family."

"So if we seriously search among the people now, we will definitely be able to find out the successors of the schools of thought and their classics. In addition, once the Jixia Academy is established, the news of advocating freedom of theory will spread, and the books of the schools of thought will spread. The introduction of them, maybe they will take their classics and automatically show up to join them. It will not be difficult to restore the Baijia at that time."

"The emperor is right!" All the ministers suddenly realized and said one after another.

"As long as Qin Shihuang didn't kill people from various schools of thought, then most of their knowledge would definitely be preserved."

"In addition, there is definitely a lot of knowledge of the various schools of thought preserved in the tombs of their descendants." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "For example, there must be a lot of Mohist mechanisms in the tomb of the Mohist giant. It is impossible to strengthen the Mohism, but it will definitely not burn the ancient books of the sages. It will only be buried with myself, and I hope it can be passed on in the future."

"Burning the ancient books of the sages, the descendants of the hundred families will never do it."

"Send someone to dig it out!" Zhu Yuanzhang continued, "We also want to learn from Cao Cao this time, and Paier will be the captain once."

"But what Cao Cao digs is gold and silver, what we dig is knowledge."

"Just like burning books and burying Confucianism, Qin Shihuang burned books and burying Confucianism for the sake of the Qin Dynasty, and we burned books and burying Confucianism for the sake of the people of the world! Although we can compare what they do with them, they cannot be compared!"
