Chapter 199 Duan Jiongzhi is helpless(1/2)
[Dingdong, Zhang Gong’s peak five-dimensional attributes, commander: 82, force: 65, intelligence: 83, politics: 88, charm: 89;
Zhang Gong's current five-dimensional attributes are: Commander: 65, Force: 56, Intelligence: 78, Politics: 74, Charm: 85;]
Regarding Zhang Gong's anger, Wang Yu also understood that at this time, the emperor reformed the current election method and selected a group of talents who had no clique relationship and were loyal to himself. This was equivalent to no longer allowing students to study Confucian classics and become officials.
The only fundamental.
It can be said that the actions taken by Liu Hong directly broke the conventional official promotion method and changed the approach of suppressing Confucian scholars to become officials. Can this not make him angry?
After all, if Liu Hong does this, more and more people will become officials in the future, and most of them will be promoted to officials by relying on poetry, poetry, calligraphy and painting.
Where do these official positions come from?
Isn’t it just taken from the hands of people who take Confucian classics as officials!
The reason why Hongdu School failed was that it took away the family's big cake. After all, the emperor's move was equivalent to robbing the official position that originally belonged to Zhang Gong and others!
In ancient times, those intellectuals who wanted to be officials were most afraid that the knowledge they learned was useless, because the purpose of their studies was to become officials!
But now, Liu Hongte has issued an edict to change the way of selecting officials. Not only those who study Confucian classics can be officials, but also those who are proficient in poetry, poetry, chess, calligraphy and painting can be officials.
Although some people are very happy, most people will not agree. After all, the emperor is shaking the foundation of the family and blocking the path of intellectuals like Confucian classics. How could they not be angry?
After Zhang Gong said these words, Zhou Ao on the side even more sternly echoed: "What Zi Qian just said is exactly what he said. Poems and songs... are just trivial things and are useless in governing the country. How can they be qualified to do so?"
Official path?"
As a student of Taixue, Zhou Ao naturally studied Confucian classics. During these days, he studied the Yi Jing and Ouyang Shangshu with Dr. Han Zong, waiting for him to become a filial and honest official in the court.
But now, Liu Hong blocked his way to become an official, so he was naturally very angry with Liu Hong for promoting Hongdu School students.
"Brother Zhongyuan is right. Confucian classics are our foundation. If you don't even practice the Five Classics of the sages, how can you be a state official and govern the people? Your Majesty's actions will bring harm to the country and chaos to the people." Fu
Sunda said loudly!
Fu Xun was really bold. Not only did he respond loudly, but his words were full of disrespect for Liu Hong, which made Wang Yu on the side roll his eyes.
No wonder the emperor dislikes party members so much. No one can stand it.
I can only say that everyone present has their own position when speaking!
Take Fu Xun for example, he is a representative figure of ancient classics, because he loves Zuo Zhuan very much and studies it day and night. This belongs to ancient classics, not the official modern classics!
However, for Fu Xun, this has no impact, because as long as he has profound knowledge of ancient Chinese classics and makes his talents famous, it will not affect his official career, and he can still become an official through classics in the future.
After all, in today's imperial court, there are quite a few people who studied ancient Chinese classics and became officials. People like the famous scholar Ma Rong, Ma Rixi and Lu Zhi also studied ancient Chinese classics and became officials.

But now, in order to give himself the right to select officials, Liu Hong directly changed the method of selecting officials without holding court discussions, breaking the existing balance. Naturally, people from the ancient literature school like Fu Xun were criticized.
I'm afraid even Liu Hong didn't know that his move to change the method of selecting officials directly caused the two schools of ancient and modern classics, which were originally at odds with each other, to become surprisingly united in the face of Liu Hong, a formidable enemy.
To explain it with the method of contradiction, Liu Hong has become the main contradiction. After all, he wants to rob aristocratic families and monopolize the Confucian classics method of selecting officials.
If they haven't seen the formality clearly, if they continue to fight each other like this, not only will it be meaningless, but it will also benefit Liu Hong, the emperor.
However, even if Liu Hong knew that his actions would have adverse effects, he would probably turn a blind eye, because he holds the highest power in the country, so naturally he is not afraid of these students.
At this time, Zhang Gong suddenly stood up and slapped the case, and said angrily: "In my opinion, the reason why Your Majesty did this is all because of the obstruction of the eunuchs in the court."
When Zhang Gong on the side said this, he felt as if he had been beaten with chicken blood. He suddenly raised his arms and shouted, "If the eunuch is not eliminated, the country will never have peace!"
"If the eunuchs are not eliminated, the country will have no peace!"
"If the eunuchs are not eliminated, the country will have no peace!"
…………
As Zhang Gong shouted, Suo Zhan and others present were also affected. Everyone was excited and shouted in agreement with Zhang Gong.
Perhaps Zhang Gong's shouting at this moment was too attractive, or maybe the scholars around him already hated eunuchs. After hearing Zhang Gong's shouting, they were stunned for a while, and then after reacting,
He immediately started shouting.
Just like that, more and more people started shouting, and it seemed to be spreading.
"A bunch of angry young people who don't know how to live or die!" After Wang Yu saw everyone's actions, his face suddenly became anxious, and he was speechless towards them. After all, he was still too young!
The wine shop is a crowded place, and it is also the favorite place for spies to inquire about information. Wang Yu is sure that there will definitely be some big-name spies here.
The fact that they are shouting so unscrupulously here is completely contemptuous of the current imperial power. If Liu Hong knew about it, could he let these people go?
Even if Liu Hong ignored it, those eunuchs would never remain indifferent.
What's more important is that he is also among this group of people. He is about to grow up now, and he doesn't want to get into the emperor's sight so quickly, so he quickly dissuaded him loudly: "Brothers, please be careful what you say. Could it be that you have forgotten the six years of history?"
What happened to the Zhuque Tower in the past?"
"Hiss..."
Everyone around them woke up immediately when Wang Yu blocked them, and they began to sweat. They were so excited just now that they actually said such disrespectful words, and they were still in a crowded wine shop.
You know, six years ago, when Empress Dowager Dou died of illness, someone wrote in the Zhuque Palace of the North Palace of Luoyang: "The world is in chaos, Cao Jie, Wang Fuyou killed the empress dowager, Chang Shihou Landuo killed party members, and all the officials were dead.
Those who have no good advice."
Emperor Ling was furious when he heard the news, and immediately issued an edict ordering Liu Meng, the captain of Sili School, to arrest him every ten days.
However, Liu Meng believed that the words in the letter were honest and refused to do his best to arrest him. More than a month later, he still had not obtained the name of the person who wrote the letter. Therefore, he was demoted by the emperor to the position of admonishing doctor, and his position was replaced by Duan Jiong, the censor.
Duan Jiong welcomed the eunuchs and sent officers and soldiers everywhere to search and arrest them. More than a thousand people were arrested and imprisoned, most of whom were imperial students.
Afterwards, Cao Jie and other eunuchs instigated Duan Jiong to impeach Liu Meng on other charges, and sentenced him to imprisonment and his title of Zuo Xiao.
It is precisely because of this!
Wang Yu's father, Wang Teng, began to estrange from Liu Hong, resulting in his dismissal from office by the emperor four years later.
As soon as Wang Yu mentioned this matter, everyone stopped talking about it, but there was still anger in their hearts, so of course, they focused their anger on Duan Qiao.
"What did Zi Yingti do to this little guy? He ruined our drinking experience for nothing." Zhang Gong said a little unhappy.
"Duan Jiao was also a famous general of his generation, but now he has chosen to help the tyrants, and he has no face in the world!" Suo Zhan said angrily!
"Bah...he is a famous general. He has thrown himself into the eunuchs. He has really disgraced the face of the people of Liangzhou!"
"It is not only a shame for me, Liangzhou, but also a shame for Hexi and the whole world!"
"..."
Seeing that the faces of everyone present were filled with endless resentment when the name Duan Juan was mentioned, Wang Yu felt a trace of sadness in his heart for some unknown reason.
These people are all from Liangzhou. Everyone in the world can accuse Duan Jiong of helping Zhou to commit cruelty, but the people of Liangzhou cannot, because if it weren’t for Duan Jiong, Liangzhou would have already fallen into the hands of foreigners.
It can be said that if the Wang family did not take action, Duan Jiong was definitely the number one general of the Han Dynasty at that time. Let alone the late Han Dynasty, even if we look at the entire four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, he would pacify the Eastern Qiang and wipe out the Han Dynasty.
Xiqiang’s achievements are enough to be among the best!
Many people and scholars don’t understand why Duan Jiong chose to turn to the eunuchs and become their pawns when he became famous!
For a name?
For profit?
Or for power?
Or is it out of necessity?
No one knows the answer!
Even Wang Yu doesn’t know!
It wasn't until Wang Yu's father, Wang Teng, gave him some advice that Wang Yu truly understood Duan Juan's thoughts.
He is a veteran general with outstanding achievements, holding military power in his hands. The emperor is jealous of him, and the scholars want to win him over. If he does not fall to the emperor, then you can imagine what awaits him.
After all, Duan Jiong does not have such a terrifying family power as the Wang family, which makes him confident and fearless!
To put it bluntly, the eunuchs were the pawns that the emperor put on the stage to fight against the scholars!
Moreover, if Duan Jiong falls, the Han Dynasty will really have no famous generals. At least Lu Zhi and Huangfu Song do not have such strong reputations now.
However, it is not convenient for Wang Yu to say these reasons, nor does he want to say them out. Time will prove all this.
And Duan Jiong...I'm afraid he won't live long!
Perhaps these Taixue students also remembered Duan Jun's contribution to Liangzhou. After sighing, they stopped talking about Duan Jun and continued to drink and chat with each other, smiling and talking about Qian Yun.
At this time, several people began to pour wine on Wang Yu, and Gai Yin and others also suffered a terrible disaster. However, Wang Yu and others' drinking capacity was huge, and these people did not have the ability to pour them down.<
/p>
As the circle came down, Zhang Gong and others immediately begged for mercy and no longer dared to toast. Only then did Wang Yu and others get Qing Ning. After waiting for a while, Wang Yu took Zhang Gong and hid in a corner of the lobby.
Chat!
Although Zhang Gong is just a black man, but because he is the grandson of Zhang Huan and he is quite capable, Wang Yu still has to look at him and talk to him about Zhang Huan.
When they thought of Zhang Huan's late death as a hero, they both sighed with regret.
However, Wang Yu is not without any solution, that is, the Longevity Ming Pill, which can increase his life span by ten years.
This is enough for Zhang Huan to advance to heavenly status!
To be continued...
