Han Dao world

Chapter 1237
Zhong Yao couldn't help smiling. "Speaking of which, you are also a person who has lost his way and found his way back."

"It is true that I may be the one who has benefited the most from the teachings of the emperor." Xun Yu said with a smile, "I often feel in a trance, feeling that what I am facing is not a young emperor, but a wise man older than me."

Zhong Yao thought for a while and said, "You are probably not the only one who feels this way."

"Who else have you heard?"

"No one has mentioned it as clearly as you, but there are quite a few people who have similar feelings. Thinking about it carefully, it should be that the emperor is gifted, able to raise doubts where there is no doubt, and not sticking to the sage's scriptures, and Taoism. Proof, this can be superior to others."

"Talent is certainly important, but with only talent and no experience, it's still hard to get rid of the scholarly spirit." Xun Yu stopped in his tracks and shook his head slowly. "Since the founding of Confucianism, 700 years ago, there have been many people with extraordinary talents, but those who can invent something are all in line with the current situation. If you follow the trend, you will prosper, and if you go against the trend, you will perish. There is no exception."

Zhong Yao also stopped, and turned to face Xun Yu with a smile on his lips. "Do you want to talk about Lingzu Xunqing?"

Xun Yu shook his head again. "In your eyes, I am actually this kind of person?"

"So you think of Emperor Xiaoxuan?"

Xun Yu pondered for a moment. "So, it is indeed somewhat similar, but it is still not enough."

"Where is it not enough?"

"The emperor's ambition and vision are far above Xiaoxuan."

Zhong Yao stretched out his hand to stroke his beard, and remained silent.

Xun Yu said again: "Before Xiaoxuan came to the world, there was a period of folk life. This may be the reason why he attached importance to the administration of officials. But he has no innovation in academics, and he only attaches importance to "The Legend of Gu Liang" because of his criticism of Prince Li. The reminiscences are only selected from the existing academics, and cannot be compared with the emperor's innovation and departure from the classics."

Zhong Yao sighed. "Introduce the old and bring forth the new, deviate from the classics and follow the path, Wen Ruo, after all, you should go faster."

Xun Yu smiled, but said nothing.

He knew that Zhong Yao, Xun Chen and others were not idle in Bohai.The failure of Bohai's moral government experiment is even more frustrating than the failure of Wang Mang's restoration.The failure of Wang Mang can be said to be a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, and was finally destroyed by civil uprisings such as Chimei and Lulin. However, the experiment of moral government in Bohai was protected by the imperial court and almost failed under the influence of external forces.

Strictly speaking, Bohai's benevolent government has not failed, but in comparison, it is far inferior to the politics promoted by the emperor. It is not attractive to the people. The situation of the people fleeing the Bohai Sea.

This was a serious blow to Confucian scholars who advocated moral government.

After being frustrated, it is impossible for them not to reflect.

After all, Confucianism is a study that is closely related to politics. Confucian students can live in seclusion and ignore politics, but Confucianism cannot break away from the imperial court and devote themselves to learning.

But after all, they were in the Bohai Sea, on the edge of the storm, far less impacted than he was in the center of the storm.

Thinking of the several in-depth talks with the emperor at the beginning of the year, Xun Yu's memory was still fresh, as if it was right in front of him.

Reflection has a price, the more painful it is, the deeper the understanding.

In contrast, Zhong Yao and Xun Zhan are still too comfortable.

-

Zhong Yao lived in Luoyang for a few days, and learned about the development of Henan Yin in detail in the past two years. He also listened to Xun Yu's experience of governing in Hedong in the past few years. Compared with the two, the experience is clearer and stronger.

He himself has governed the Shangdang, and he knows that governance is not easy.If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that Xun Yu could fulfill his promise of doubling the people's income in two years.

The reality was in front of him, and he was shocked.

In fact, this is not such a profound question. There are only two key points: one is to save the land, so that the common people can own their own land; of various technologies.

But these two items are beyond the reach of Bohai.

Bohai can neither save the land nor allow scholars to engage in low-level careers, so there are more people who talk about Taoism and less people who start to do it.

Their preaching has always remained in their mouths, but they have not been implemented in action, and failure is inevitable.

A few days later, Chen Qun returned from Yingchuan.

As Xun Yu expected, Liu Yang and others did not let Han Rong go.Han Rong has already set off to Xingzai to meet the emperor.If there is no accident, he will go to Wancheng first to meet Situ Yang Biao.If Zhong Yao is fast enough, maybe he can meet him in Wancheng.

After hearing this, Zhong Yao bid farewell to Xun Yu and rushed to Wancheng.

-

Lifting his clothes, Yang Biao hurried out of the gate of Situ Mansion.

Just as Han Rong got out of the car, he was stroking his beard and looking at the officials who came in and out of Situ's mansion, his eyes full of emotion.

"Han Gong, are you safe?" Yang Biao stepped forward quickly, supported Han Rong, looked Han Rong up and down, and couldn't help but sullen, a little unhappy. "I've heard for a long time that Mr. Han is getting stronger and stronger, but seeing him today is as expected. Since Mr. Han is in such good health, why didn't he show up for a long time? Do you know how hard Jiamou and I have been?"

Han Rong gave Yang Biao a white look. "You're so embarrassed to ask me, an old man in his eighties, to take responsibility and let you guys rest?" He raised his chin again. "Look at these young people, all of them are talents. Even if you work hard, you won't go anywhere. Don't complain in front of me."

Yang Biao laughed and didn't think he was disobedient.

Although Han Rong became an official later than him, and his official position was not as high as him, he was 15 years older than him and had good moral character. He always respected Han Rong and regarded him as his predecessor.

The two entered the mansion, and Yang Biao supported Han Rong's arm.Seeing this situation, the officials in the government were shocked.Most of them had never met Han Rong, and they didn't know who this hale and hearty old man with white beard and hair could make Situ Yang Biao pay such respect.

Yang Biao came to the court, went up to the hall, asked all the officials to stop their work, surrounded him, and introduced Han Rong solemnly.

When the officials learned that this old man was the son of Han Shao, one of the four elders of Yingchuan, the former eunuch Han Rong all exclaimed in unanimous agreement.

Han Rong greeted them one by one, and in words, he was no stranger to these officials of the Situ Mansion, and he was able to call out the names and family backgrounds of many people.

"There are so many young people, it's great, it's great, it's so comforting to look at." Han Rong praised.

Yang Biao said with a smile: "The emperor returned to the government and the two governments, and the affairs are becoming more and more complicated. Without these young people, I would definitely not be able to cope."

"It should be so. The experienced elders lead the way, and the young with physical strength drive the car. Only when the old and young are combined can they be fast and stable."

Yang Biao smiled slightly, and said in a low voice: "Han Gong, although this is the reason, it is a bit out of date. Our son of heaven is a young man who has just lost his crown, and it is the time when he is full of energy."

Han Rong stroked his beard and said lightly: "Learners have few talents, and those who have mastered are the first. Although the emperor is young, he has great knowledge and far-sightedness, so he can't always theorize."

Yang Biao was slightly taken aback, then laughed out loud. "I forgot, Mr. Han, you are not good at learning Confucianism."

Han Rong also laughed and said, "That's not as deafening and thought-provoking as your "Confucianism Zaiyi Lun"."
