Han Dao world

Chapter 1031

On the Congtai, the trees are like shade.

Liu Xie sat opposite Xun Yue, quietly listening to Xun Yue's explanation of the "Taiping Jing".

Xun Yue, whose name is Zhongyu, is the son of Xun Jian, fifteen years older than Xun Yu, and now over half a hundred, still white.

The Xun family attaches great importance to learning, and almost every generation has one or two scholars who can be called great Confucians.The previous generation was Xun Shuang, and this generation is Xun Yue.

At the age of twelve, Xun Yue could tell the story of Spring and Autumn, and had the ability of photographic memory.

But he is not a scholar who entertains himself.On the contrary, he is very concerned about current affairs and has written a large number of political articles, some of which have been published in the residence, which has aroused considerable admiration.

Many scholars have compared him with Wang Fu from Anding, and slightly inferior to Wang Chong from Kuaiji.

After arriving in Xingzai, he talked with Liu Xieshen several times, and was appointed as Shangshu, with attendants around him.

Today, he lectured on the "Taiping Jing" for Liu Xie.

Liu Xie has heard of the "Taiping Jing", but has not seriously studied the "Taiping Jing".I was not interested in the previous life, and I have no chance in this life. I can't even find the text of the "Taiping Jing".

He always thought that the "Taiping Jing" was a Taoist book, but after listening to Xun Yue's explanation, he realized that this was a misunderstanding.

At least people in this era did not regard the "Taiping Jing" as a book of Taoism.

"Taiping Jing" calls itself "Book of Heaven", and Xiang Kai, who admires "Taiping Jing", calls it "Shen Shu" and "refers to the same classics".Although Xiang Kai is good at alchemy, he is a Confucian scholar. Of course, the classics he is talking about are not Taoist classics "Laozi" and "Zhuangzi", but Confucian classics.

"Taiping Jing" also has a lot of content about respecting Confucianism and virtuous Confucianism, and its five elements thought also comes from Chenwei and Dong Zhongshu's "Spring and Autumn Fanlu".

Therefore, although the "Taiping Jing" was regarded as a Taoist classic in later generations, it is now a hodgepodge of theology, alchemy, and Confucianism, and it also perfectly fits the knowledge structure of the middle and lower classes of the Yellow Turban Army.

The palace collected this book, not because of his ideological system, but because of the alchemy in it, which is actually the part of Guang Si.

Serious scholars look down on these things.

Xun Yue is obviously one of them.

He explained the "Taiping Jing" to Liu Xie, but he did not agree with the "Taiping Jing".

All in all, this is a miscellaneous book that can't even be said to justify itself, and it has no value of study at all.

Liu Xie listened, but didn't listen to everything.

In his opinion, even if the "Taiping Jing" itself has no academic value, it is worth studying if it can attract so many people to compile it and attract millions of people to believe in it.

Even if those people are low-level people with no culture.

Are the people at the bottom not the people?
Scholars don't regard them as human beings and think they are superior to others, but he can't have such an idea.

The strength of his confrontation with the scholar-bureaucrats is these low-level people who seem to be a little ignorant. His goal is to educate these low-level people into real scholars and responsible scholars, instead of monopolizing knowledge and relying on public opinion to respect themselves and the court. Fight for taxis.

There are [-] Taixue students in Taixue, and hundreds of thousands of scholars in the world, so they can control the court.Even the emperor can't do anything against the entire scholar-official class, because you can't manage the world directly without officials.

The eunuch is a helper, but not a good one.What they can do to help is far less important than the trouble they cause.

But if he mobilizes [-] million ordinary people to become his basic base, what are the hundreds of thousands of taxis?
Officials don't cooperate, have you ever seen the grand occasion of millions of people taking the public examination?

Although his purpose of educating the people was not to compete with the scholar-bureaucrats, he firmly believed in this advantage and firmly believed that this is the real bright future.

Even the best chance.

After all, there are no enemies around the big man who can threaten the big man. He has no imminent survival crisis, and he can deal with it calmly, step by step to lift the economic and ideological constraints of the scholar-officials.The goal was not achieved, but an indelible stain was left.

"Xun Jun, although the "Taiping Jing" is not of high academic value, it is the embodiment of the people's thoughts. By studying this book, we can understand what the people want. After all, in terms of the number of people, there are millions of Yellow Turbans in Jizhou alone. There are more scholars than there are scholars in the world. It is obviously not a good idea to ignore their ideas just because they are shallow."

Liu Xie looked at Xun Yue, and said unhurriedly: "Don't forget, the "Spring and Autumn" you are reading now is also compiled by Master. If you are asked to read the original records, you will also have shallow comments. If you don't believe it , you can go to the Taishi Department to borrow the daily notes to see, and most of the time they talk about trivial things that are not worth mentioning."

Xun Yue was noncommittal, but just cupped his hands perfunctorily.

Seeing Xun Yue's disapproving look, Liu Xie wanted to say something more, but Liu Cong walked over quickly, wiping away tears as he walked.

Liu Xie was a little surprised.

Who beat this kid to cry again?
"Your Majesty, I want to ask for leave to visit my relatives."

"It's neither the new year nor the festival, why do you want to visit relatives all of a sudden?"

"My father is sick, very sick."

Liu Xie was taken aback.Is Liu Biao really sick?

"What disease?"

"I don't know. The family letter from my mother only said that he vomited blood and was seriously ill. I hope I can ask for leave to visit my relatives, just in case something happens."

Liu Xie thought about it, and asked Liu Cong to read the family letter.

Liu Cong is a bit confused, often misunderstands the original meaning, and is not a careful person.

After reading the family letter, Liu Xie came to his senses.

Liu Biao may have vomited blood—this cannot be made up—but it was not a disease, but Yuan Shu’s anger.His wife, Mrs. Chen, wanted Liu Cong to go back to visit her relatives, but it was superficial. Her real purpose should be to let him know about it through Liu Cong's mouth, and then see his reaction.

How else could he react?
Since Yuan Shu sang the bad face, of course he wanted to sing the red face, so as to maintain the image of a wise king who cherishes his veterans to the end.

Although he hoped that Liu Biao would vomit more blood, or even die.

"It turned out that your father was worried about state affairs, and he became ill after working for a long time." Liu Xie sighed and put on a look of compassion. "Yes, go back to visit relatives as soon as possible, spend more time with your father, and come back for vacation after he recovers from his illness. In addition, I will ask the Imperial Medical Office to arrange an imperial doctor to accompany you back to your hometown to treat your father's illness."

Although Liu Cong was confused, he also knew that this was the grace of the emperor, so he quickly thanked him and turned around.

Xun Yue watched clearly from the side, but cold sweat broke out on his back.

Although he has been living in Yingchuan and never went to Luoyang, he also knows about Liu Biao's drawing of "Luoyang Picture Scroll" in Luoyang, and he is more aware of the reasons why Liu Biao was passive and sabotage.Now the Son of Heaven not only does not blame Liu Biao for perfunctory the king's order, but instead says that Liu Biao has become sick from overwork. Isn't this putting Liu Biao on the fire?
I heard Xun Yu said before that although the emperor is young, his methods are very sophisticated.

This time it was an eye-opener.

This is not only old-fashioned, but also vicious.

Xun Yue was a little worried.

I am a scholar myself, can I get along with the emperor?In the end, like Kong Rong, will he be forced to travel far into the rivers and lakes to visit some barbarian tribes to visit the ruins?
