I am the Empress Dowager!

Chapter 267: The General of the Han Dynasty—Fufeng Ma Family

After all, Ma Rong was a very knowledgeable and famous person, although he was actually too hungry to stand it.

But he still has his own way of saying things, and they are very serious, very shameless!

Why does Liu Long think he is shameless?
Ma Rong, this guy is from the perspective of his family education, his discipleship, or even now he is studying under Ban Zhao.

They are all orthodox Confucian disciples.

Although Confucianism is divided into many factions, no matter which one it is, there is a very important sign, that is, it is not easy to deal with the Zhuangzi lineage!
Laozi's way is still based on the way of heaven, while Zhuangzi's way is completely contrary to Confucianism, which emphasizes etiquette and governance.

In order to find a reason for himself, Ma Rong directly used Zhuangzi's Tao to explain the matter, although his friends did not say anything about it openly.

But the actual expressions are not very good-looking!

But no matter what, this guy has accepted the general's request. Although the Fufeng Ma family feels there are some problems, he is his own son after all.

It would be great if I could get in touch with the general or even his relatives.

After all, they were also relatives before the decline of the Fufeng Ma family, and they were not doing very well.

But no one expected that this direct disciple of the Fufeng Ma family would only figure it out in the fourth year of Yonghe and find a shameful reason for himself to become an official.

Then he got the official position and appointment of the school secretary and the secret collection of books in Dongguan Dian School, but he almost lost his way back then.

After that, his attempts to commit suicide became more and more intense each time, until not long ago, he completely blocked his own road.
And this is why Liu Long thinks this guy did it.

Liu Long and Zhang Yu, the old captain at that time, were actually worried about one thing, that is, the Han Dynasty had placed too much emphasis on culture over military affairs in recent years, which was not good.

And there are not a few people in the world who have discovered this.

Among them, Ma Rong is also one.

Liu Long was too young at the time, so in order to stabilize the court, to consolidate his position, and at the same time to silence the mouths of those celebrities who refused to serve but still complained endlessly.

Deng Sui, who was in charge of the court at the time, as well as the general Deng Zhi and the Deng family brothers who assisted the government, were very kind to celebrities and were very generous and tolerant to Wen Shiqi.

This has led to the common belief among Confucian scholars and scholars that literary virtue can be promoted and martial arts should be abolished. This group of people not only say it themselves.

They also took the initiative to form cliques and actively stopped each other's Confucian rules of not only studying but also practicing martial arts. They even put down the Six Arts of the Gentleman.

Among the many classics of Confucianism, they began to focus on those that were somewhat empty but eager to learn.

So we won’t talk about the more complicated battle formation method.

They have become a being who is assessed specifically for the purpose of assessment, and the consequences of these people going out to serve as officials can be imagined.

Therefore, cunning thieves have sprung up, taking advantage of the country's unpreparedness to cause chaos everywhere.

Ma Rong was also watching from the east, and he could see this kind of thing very clearly.

So he ridiculed and despised this behavior, and his theory was correct.

I believe that in the way of civil and military affairs, the sages will not fall, and the five talents will be useless or can be discarded, whether it is standing on the body of Liu Long or standing on the body of the old Taiwei Zhang Yu.Or in terms of the situation of the Han Dynasty and the future, there is no problem with this statement.

But the problem is that these words should not come out of his mouth.

As a former celebrity of the generation, Ma Rong's reputation had already suffered a big blow at this time, and what he said itself was not very trustworthy.

Especially at this time, everyone will feel that this is not Ma Rong's criticism at the moment, and they will all feel that Ma Rong did it deliberately and wanted to clear his name.

Therefore, not only did no one respond to him, even those in the court scorned his remarks.

But Ma Rong was Ma Rong. He had been talking about it for several years, but he didn't know whether he felt that no one was paying attention to him after talking for a long time, or he felt that the court was ignoring him, which made him even more embarrassed.

So he started writing directly in Dongguan. In the second year of the Yuan Dynasty, which was actually not long before Liu Long came to the northwest, this guy wrote an "Ode to Guangcheng" in Dongguan with one stroke of his pen.

And what is "Ode to Guangcheng"?
No matter it is the beginning of "Luxury is not inferior, frugality is solid. Among luxury and frugality, etiquette is the boundary. It is based on crickets and Shanshu people, and stabs the king, and satirizes the festival of Taikang."

It’s the ending: “Eternally free and easy in the universe, with two rites that are boundless, created in the back soil, joined by the gods in Haoqian, super-special and without human beings, radiant and majestic without originality. It will bring thousands of billions of descendants and last for thousands of years. And it will continue forever. When the rituals and music are closed, the north gate will turn back to the gate, and when it reaches the new city, it will turn back to Yique and turn to Luojing."

The articles here all satirize the imperial court thoroughly.

In order to silence many celebrities and to allow himself to continue to govern in a reasonable and reasonable manner, Deng Sui joined forces with Deng Zhi and others.

Then began to develop literary affairs!
As a result, the consequence of the current cultural boom is that this guy mocks himself with such words?

What's the point!
Ma Rong is naturally famous, and he has a very high reputation.

But after "Ode to Guangcheng" was sent to him, he completely offended the Deng family in power. Even as the emperor of the Han Dynasty, he didn't want to talk to Ma Rong on this matter.

I have the intention of letting him fend for himself.

And where is Ma Rong now?

After he offended the Deng family, he did not dare to go out to Dongguan. Even because of the many conflicts between the court and the local area, Ma Rong did not even dare to go to the local area.

That is to say, there are many famous people in Dongguan, and Ban Zhao of Cao family said some kind words to him, which allowed him to survive until now.

But Liu Long has already understood that this person is pure Zuo, and he is also the kind of person who loves to play and loves to play.

If he is really stubborn, he will directly remonstrate with the court. Liu Long can guarantee that if he dies peacefully in the court, then all his previous reputation will become bright and magnificent.

As a result, he was sent away again, living in Dongguan. Not only did this incident become a joke, but his whole person became a joke.

Liu Long didn't even want to save him, and at the same time, the Fufeng Ma family had a very bad reputation for the entire court.

The last time the Fufeng Ma family was in such a predicament, it was because the Fufeng Ma family became a relative, offending the world a lot and doing a lot of evil.
Seeing Liu Long's confusion at this time, Yu Xu couldn't help but curl her lips.

Then he said something that shocked Liu Long.

"Your Majesty, I actually think that your Majesty can recruit Ma Rong!"
