I'm really not King Jing of Zhongshan

Chapter 366 It's True!
I'm very sorry, I have a high fever of 39°, the fever subsides at 11 am, I wake up and look at it at 18 o'clock...

A new chapter was added overnight, sorry again.

"It's been a long time, and I haven't had a private conversation with the teacher."

"The left and right have nothing to do, and when I have free time, I want to visit the teacher."

"I never thought about it: Teacher has been quite contented these days?"

In Shangguanli, Chang'an, Jianling Hou Mansion.

For the emperor's arrival, Wei Wan obviously had expected it long ago.

——If Wei Wan didn't make preparations earlier, but started to prepare when he knew that Liu Sheng was coming, what he could do would be to clean the inside and outside and prepare meals;

But in Wei Wan's mansion, Liu Sheng felt the long-lost feeling of "welcome anytime".

The last time Liu Sheng felt this way was in the Changle Palace of Empress Dowager Dou;
At that time, Liu Sheng was still 'Gong Zi Sheng'...

"Thanks to Your Majesty's kindness, I have chosen my minister as Prime Minister Zuo, and I don't need to be responsible for the government affairs of the Prime Minister's government;"

"As for the guards in the ban, there are Lang Zhongling and Weiwei to do the work. I just need to ask from time to time."

"It's been a long time, and I have been free, reading at home, basking in the sun, and teasing my children and grandchildren to enjoy family happiness..."

Liu Sheng, who gave up the main seat to the guest, sat with him at the guest table with a smile on his face. Wei Wan said so, then lowered her head with a laugh.

For Liu Sheng's purpose, Wei Wan knew it clearly.

But Wei Wan also understands: this topic must not be brought up by herself.

Sure enough, it was not what Wei Wan expected—seeing that Wei Wan was pretending to be stupid, Liu Sheng just smiled and shook his head, and quickly brought the topic back on track.

"The teacher should have heard about what happened recently."

"—As soon as Taohou took the position of prime minister, Wei Qihou has already begun to exercise the power of 'next prime minister', which has presented me with a problem of 'Jianyuan New Deal'."

"There are people inside and outside the government jokingly saying: This is the next prime minister, a surprise for me."

"It's just this surprise, but I'm only surprised, not happy..."

···
"Ha~"

"The queen mother is very angry about Wei Qihou's new policy."

"Dr. Zhao Wan and Confucian scholar Wang Zang also lost their chance to gain a foothold in the imperial court because of Wei Qihou."

"Wei Qihou was also grounded again by the Queen Mother."

"It's just that this time, how long Wei Qihou will be restrained is a bit uncertain..."

Expressing his intentions euphemistically, and cryptically mentioning his position, Liu Sheng looked at Wei Wan with some vague expectations.

And under Liu Sheng's gaze, Wei Wan's originally calm face was filled with bitterness and melancholy...

After the accumulation of the entire Wenjing rule, the Han Dynasty today is actually at a very good point in time.

——In order to fight the Xiongnu decisively, the two former emperors Wen and Jing lived frugally. While accumulating huge wealth for the treasury, they also relieved the pressure of the people's life by more than half!

At the same time, in order to be able to concentrate on external affairs after the start of the decisive battle, internal problems such as the princes of the Kanto region, etc., were also resolved by the two former emperors;
For the rest, Liu Sheng only needs to proceed step by step.

The government treasury is full, the people's lives are rich - at least they will not suffer from hunger, and the social atmosphere is peaceful and peaceful;
Naturally, the academic world, which had been sluggish since the outbreak of war at the end of Qin Dynasty, began to gradually become active.

As the ruling school, Huang Lao, although the sun has set, he is still a camel that is about to starve to death, but has not yet starved to death;
In addition, in the East Palace, there is also an Empress Dowager Dou who regards Huang Lao as "the only outstanding learning in the world".

——The decline of Huang Lao is inevitable, but it is inevitable in the future, not the present.

Except for Huang Lao's "one super", the remaining theories among the philosophers are roughly "how strong";
The strength of Legalism lies in the general trend brought about by the appointment of Legalist officials by the first emperor, especially the outstanding representatives represented by Chao Cuo, Zhidu, and Zhao Yu.

With this general trend, even if the late emperor had passed away, and the Legalists felt good in academics in the Han family, there would still be another three to fifty years.

Several other 'small' schools, such as peasants, novelists, strategists, and yin and yang schools, are strong in specialization.

Although the peasant family separated from the Mohist school no longer exists as a 'farm family', all agricultural officials all over Guanzhong and even all over the world regard the ancestor of the farm family: Shennong as their ancestor.

Although it can no longer be called a force in the academic world, the farmers who have transformed into a group of "farm officials" seem to have become the most practical group in the Han Dynasty today.

As for the novelist, as the least popular and least valued school of all schools of thought, it has become an extremely special existence in today's Han Dynasty.

——The members of this group, almost without exception, are all descendants of Gonghou nobles!

It's normal to think about.

What a novelist and a novelist have to do is naturally to compile the rumors and hearsay into popular stories;
This means that the "scholars" or members of novelists first need to be able to write and recognize, and have a certain culture.

Secondly, since it is a literary creation, it naturally requires a certain degree of artistic attainment, and there must be enough channels to learn about those unknown rumors, rumors, and even forbidden secret talks.

In addition, artistic creation is a business that burns money. Even in later generations, there is a saying that "if you don't have a lot of money, don't learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting", especially in this ancient era.

Combining the above points, those who can write and recognize, have literary literacy, have news channels, and have enough wealth—meet these conditions, and at the same time have the leisure to engage in "literary creation" without expecting anything in return. Let go of those Gonghou children who are idle and have nothing to do.

I have to say: in today's Han Dynasty, the achievements of novelists are quite good.

At least in Liu Sheng's view, those "novels" written by novelists about Emperor Taizong Xiaowen and Emperor Xian Xiaojing are really high in artistic content.

How tall is it?
Three or four floors then...
Cough cough cough cough...
As for the Strategist and the Yin-Yang School, although the former has declined, there are still a few remaining schools that can be cultivated by Liu Sheng as a diplomat.

As for the Yin-Yang family, apart from those god sticks who bluff and deceive the people, only those stargazers and divination officials used by the center of the court, their importance is self-evident.

——In this era, only wars and sacrifices belong to the true sense of 'national affairs';
And these two, no matter it is the divination and praying before the war, or any other matters during the latter process, they cannot be separated from the Yin Yang family.

Combining all the above, it is no exaggeration to say that the academic world of the Han family today, like the world structure of the new era in later generations, belongs to the undoubted 'one super and many strong'.

Huang Lao is "one super", and the other hundreds are more powerful.

But among the hundreds of schools belonging to "Duoqiang", the most special, and the one that makes Liu Sheng cautious and solemn is the Confucianism, which accounts for more than half of the cultural people in the world...

"Actually, Your Majesty doesn't need to come to me because of recent events."

"—I am indeed a Confucian scholar;"

"But it's not Lu Ru who can't figure out the importance."

···
"Jianyuan New Deal, the Empress Dowager and Your Majesty have already made a decision, and the minister has bowed his head and obeyed His Majesty's edict and the Empress Dowager's edict."

"As for Zhao Wan and Wang Zang, Jinan Fusheng has already made a conclusion, and it has been approved by their teacher: Lu Shengong Shen Pei."

"—Even their teacher, Shen Pei, thinks that these two did something wrong."

"Jinan Fusheng, Lu Shengong and Shen Pei are all like this. I am a little-known villain who has been able to occupy a high place in the temple just because of the late emperor's favor. How can it be worth your majesty's troubles to come to the door?"

After a long silence, Wei Wan finally expressed her position through these words.

Even in order not to let Liu Sheng have the illusion that Wei Wan was speaking ironically and complaining, Wei Wan did not forget to bow to Liu Sheng sincerely after speaking.

But even so, Liu Sheng still couldn't see the attitude he really wanted from Wei Wan's reaction.

Today, the academic circles of the Han family have one superpower and many strong ones;
But between the various schools of thought, there is not a clear distinction between them, as clear as a national border.

Let's say that Jinan Fusheng, whose real name is Fu Sheng, was once Dr. Qin, is an old scholar in the absolute sense!

If Fu Sheng is equal in status to anyone, at least in academic status, then it is Shang Shan Sihao who has also been a doctor of Qin.

Who is Shangshan Sihao?

——During the reign of Emperor Taizu Gao, at the invitation of Marquis Zhang Liangzhi, four reclusive celebrities came out of the hermit Shangshan to stand in line for the crown prince Liu Ying: Xia Huanggong Cui Guang, Luli Mr. Zhou Shu, Dongyuan Gong Tang Bing, Qili Ji Wu Shi.

These four people are called Shangshan Sihao;

At that time, just these four people walked out of Shangshan and accompanied the prince Liu Ying to show his face in front of Taizu Liu Bang, which made Liu Bang directly dispel the idea of ​​making Liu Ruyi the prince.

However, Jinan Fusheng, who is "on an equal footing" with Shangshan Sihao, has lived since Qin Shihuang unified the world until now.

If you think about it, you will know: Shangshan Sihao, in front of Taizu Gao Emperor Liu Bang, can enjoy the treatment of "If you say the prince can do it, then the prince will definitely do it";

Zhang Cang, who was only a Qin Yushi, once served as the prime minister during the reign of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, and even once became the leader of the world's academic circles;
Not to mention Jinan Fusheng who was a doctor of Qin like Shangshan Sihao, and who selflessly dedicated the "Shangshu" hidden in the wall during the reign of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen.

——Dr. Qin's gold content is not comparable to that of future doctors in the new era!

Even today's doctors in the Han Dynasty are still far from being able to compare with the "Dr. Qin" including Shangshan Sihao and Jinan Fusheng.

As for the reason, it is naturally the sentence recorded by the official historian: Wang Zheng unified the world and ruled the world. He called himself the first emperor, and he called 70 great sages in the world to be Dr. Qin...

What do you mean?
Dr. Qin, there are only 70 people!
And it was Qin Shihuang Yingzheng, at the end of the Warring States period when a hundred schools of thought were contending, the seventy most outstanding people were selected from all over the world!
The gold content of these seventy people, I am afraid that only the academicians of the new era in the future have the qualifications to compare with them.

Jinan Fusheng with the aura of "Dr. Qin", although a Confucian scholar, has now become the most respected sage in the Han Dynasty.

——It is no exaggeration to say: Jinan Fusheng is not only a Confucian speaker, but also a giant recognized by the world's academic circles today!

As long as it is related to academia, if Jinan Fusheng says one thing, no one will say anything;
Not only no one dares to say two, but there will be countless masters and great sages who will analyze and dialectically "why this thing is one, what is the profound meaning of Jinan Fusheng's one, and what profound influence it has on the contemporary world" '.

Therefore, what Wei Wan said is correct: Jinan Fusheng has stood up and said that Zhao Wan and Wang Zang are "not good at learning", then Liu Sheng really doesn't have to worry about Jianyuan New Deal being completely negated by him, and will Academia sparked a storm of public opinion.

At the same time, Lu Shengong Shenpei, who is also well-known in the world and is the teacher of Zhao Wan and Wang Zang, also said that this incident was due to his "not being strict in learning" and failing to teach his students well;
Regarding Jinan Fusheng's criticism of "you didn't teach the students well", Shen Pei specially sent someone to send a gift, saying "thank you for your criticism", and then set off from Ludi to come to Chang'an to plead guilty to Liu Sheng.

Combining all the above, Liu Sheng, it seems that there is really no need to entangle with this matter——to entangle with the Jianyuan New Deal's "stillborn baby" matter, or the senses of Wei Wan, a Confucian scholar.

But what Wei Wan doesn't know is that what Liu Sheng cares about is not the stillborn Jianyuan New Deal, or Wei Qihou Dou Ying who ruined his political career, or the teacher Wei Wan who feels uncomfortable because of this matter.

What Liu Sheng really wanted was to use this incident to stir up a storm in the now stagnant academic world of the Han family.

Liu Sheng still doesn't know what purpose he wants to achieve through this gust of wind;
Liu Sheng simply felt that as long as this gust of wind blows, he could always get something—something that would make him overjoyed.

To stir up this gust of wind, Liu Sheng needed the help of his teacher Wei Wan.

the reason is simple.

——Wei Wan, is the only Confucian scholar in the world who has enough right to speak (the former prince Taifu, the emperor Taifu, and the current Prime Minister Zuo), and who can barely be moved by Liu Shengzhi...
Thinking of this, he looked up at Wei Wan's face full of bitterness, Liu Sheng's mouth was only slightly raised in a playful arc;

A moment later, this fleeting arc was replaced by an inexplicable seriousness.

"Actually, what happened this time made me feel a little dangerous."

"What it is, I can't say it."

"I just want to chat with the teacher to see if I can think of where this dangerous aura comes from..."

···
"I heard that in the south, in the land of Qi and Lu, there have been some remarks recently."

"For example, the Confucian scholar Yuan Gu once said to people: A decisive battle with the Huns is a waste of money, a waste of money, and a disaster for the country and the people. Instead of a decisive battle, it is better to influence the Huns through ethics."

"Yuan Gu's words are pretty good;"

"I even got a report from Caifeng Yushi, saying that in the land of Qilu, many people think that there is no need for us, the Han family and the Huns, to fight a national war."

"As for the people who said these words, apart from the Confucian scholars in Lu, they were also those merchants and powerful men in Qi who claimed to be 'learning Confucianism'."

"I don't know about such a thing, teacher, what can you teach me?"

"The land of Qilu, why is there such a rumor?"

"And why are these remarks recognized and sung by the land of Qilu?"
