Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, just want to die

Chapter 610 All parties’ calculations
The scholars in Luoyang were not easily convinced. Although they were physically defeated by Ma Su, they still tried to resist through various methods.

During the next three days of Liu Xuan's lecture, Confucian scholars continued to come to criticize and debate. And these people, without exception, were all defeated and thrown out by Ma Di...

In fact, having a Confucian debate would really help your study. However, this time Liu Xuan's lecture was not simply a Confucian lecture, and its political significance was much higher than its academic significance.

So there is no way, even if the scholars in Luoyang are dissatisfied, they can only hold it in.

Ma Su's attitude of completely disrespecting the Confucian scholars completely angered the Confucian scholars in Luoyang. They wrote to Chang'an one after another, intending to accuse Ma Di of disrespecting Confucianism to the emperor.

However, their behavior was quickly dissuaded by Sima Jin, the acting patriarch of the Sima family.

"Hurry up and stop it. You are asking for humiliation by submitting a letter to Chang'an! Isn't that embarrassing enough?" Sima Jin saw several scholars who were planning to submit a letter and urgently stopped their actions.

"My brother is serving in the central government, and his official rank is Guanglu. In his previous letter to me, he clearly stated that General Ma Di is deeply trusted by the emperor, and his prestige is no different from that of Zhuge Liang."

"We are just a group of newly attached scholars. Do you really think that the emperor would offend Ma Su for this and the edict?"

Sima Jin's words immediately stopped the Confucian scholars. After all, they had just surrendered, and it could be seen from Ma Di's attitude that they did not take themselves seriously.

Influence is divided into regions. Some people have great influence in some areas, but may not have such great influence in different fields.

"Since the prince has given lectures, he naturally hopes to spread the Confucian annotations unified by the imperial court to Luoyang. But after all, Luoyang is our home field. How can we be afraid of a bunch of Confucian scholars from Kansai?"

"That's it!"

As long as they greet each other well, then not a single Confucian scholar in Luoyang will listen to Liu Xuan's lectures. Facing the situation of few people, their Confucianism cannot be passed on, and sooner or later they will have to bow to their local great Confucians!

If even Ma Su is like this, then the emperor, prime minister and even the entire Kansai court behind him will probably not pay attention to them, right?
Thinking of this, all the great scholars couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Regardless of whether they were from the Later Han Dynasty or Cao Wei Dynasty, the imperial court treated them with great courtesy.

"If he dares to kill the Luoyang scholar-bureaucrats, the entire Guandong will despise him!"

"You will follow me to organize the tribesmen to refuse to participate in the prince's lectures, and organize our lectures in other places in Luoyang. When no one listens to the prince's lecture, they will naturally look for our favor to cooperate!"

"good idea!"

Sima Jin's suggestion made all the great scholars shine, and they all expressed their feelings that this matter was feasible.

However, someone soon raised a worrying question.

"Actually, there is no need to be so frustrated. Why can't we fight back against his arrogance?" Sima Jin smiled, showing a smile that said he had a winning chance.

As a result, it was Ji Han now, but he didn't take them seriously at all!
"These Kansai barbarians! They will destroy this country sooner or later!" A Confucian scholar said angrily.

For example, Ma Su is well-known to all officials and scholars in the world. But in academic circles, Ma Su's words are probably not as effective as a look from these great scholars here.

"Master Sima has a good idea. As long as we work together, we will surely defeat these people who disrespect Confucianism!"

"That's true, but... that Ma Su is not easy to deal with. What if he uses force directly?"

"He dares!"

"If he still wants to stay in the officialdom, he won't be able to attack Confucian scholars!"

"Don't worry! Ma Su wouldn't do this." Sima Jin finally said with a smile,

"If he planned to take action, he would have launched a war on the first day he took Luoyang. He has not launched any troops now. He obviously intends to govern Sizhou in a gentle manner." "So as long as we don't go too far and bow to them at the critical moment, everything will be fine." There will be no problem!”

Finally, under Sima Jin's suggestion, all the great scholars returned to their own clans, preparing to unite and isolate the prince's lectures.

But after Da Ru left, the corners of Sima Jin's mouth rose slightly.

"Head of the family, do we also want to go back to recall the clan members?" asked the confidant next to him.

"Recall? That's right, let them come back, then change your clothes, and attend the prince's lectures as a humble person!" Sima Jin nodded, and then gave instructions.

"Everyone who participates in lectures must change their face and name, and no one is allowed to call themselves members of the Sima family."

What you said just now is enough to deceive those great scholars, but your own family must not believe it. It's a rare opportunity to warm up with the prince and the current general, and they, a bunch of politicians, are not willing to let it go.

What's more, the Sima family had already made preparations to bind the big man. I also took this opportunity to study the imperial Confucian annotations in advance.

While these fellow villagers were thinking about how to resist, the Sima family was already thinking about how to learn from this and secretly involved them to death.

Soon, Ma Su discovered that the scene where the prince was giving lectures had changed.

The group of great scholars were stimulated by some unknown reason, and instead of making trouble, they went to give lectures on their own.

However, the flow of people at the Prince's lecture site did not decrease as a result, but instead increased further. Among them, a large number of "poor people" with shabby clothes but fair skin were crowded among them, listening to the prince's lectures attentively.

"What are we going to do about this... The Guandong family's brain circuit is still a little weird." Ma Di shook his head speechlessly, and for a while he couldn't figure out what these families meant.

But no matter what it meant, the prince's lecture finally went on smoothly.

Although most of the people present were members of disguised aristocratic families, there were still some children from poor families mixed in. Next, we only need to wait for the advancement of Prince Liu Xuan's lectures, the unified promotion of Confucianism by the Han Dynasty, and the opening of subjects to obtain scholars.

However, Ma Su is still very confident about the impact of this work. After all, this is denying the efforts of all scholars in the world for many years, and the turmoil caused by this is not a small amount.

Ma Su was not worried about offending anyone, but it would not be a good thing for the court if it caused too much turmoil.

Therefore, he did not rush to implement it in Kansai, and in Kanto he only promoted it slowly in the nature of lectures.

However, while promoting his lectures, Ma Su did not stop the construction of Sizhou.

Outside Luoyang, a large number of civilians began to perform corvee labor during the off-season period, trying their best to repair the damage caused by the previous war.

At the same time, in Jianye in the south, a handsome guy who did not want to be named was furious and incompetent.

"Why is Zhuge Liang in Jiangling!!"
