Chapter 523 Saint
"Think about it carefully, Your Majesty has always been peaceful and does not punish him for words. Why is he so angry that he was so angry by Gai Kuanrao?"
He did not dare to have a deep conversation with Xiao Wangzhi, for fear that this Chun Ru's three views would be destroyed. However, after returning to Taichang Temple, he told Liang Qiuhe the truth.
Liang Qiuhe pondered and said, "Because the abdication mentioned in Gai Kuanrao's memorial made His Majesty angry and heartbroken."
"That's right, Gai Kuanrao reminded His Majesty of Mu Meng's words. Even if there is a king who inherits the body and keeps the moral character of the people, it will not prevent the saint from being ordered by heaven."
As an official doctrine, the influence of ram has been subtle for decades, and many people believe it from the bottom of their hearts.
Wei asked Liang Qiuhe instead: "How can I be considered a saint?"
Liang Qiu congratulated: "The saint is wisdom."
"It's not that simple." Wei Xiang shook his head: "Have you ever heard that the three are immortal?"
"The Supreme One has established virtue, secondly, made meritorious, and secondly, made words. Even if it is not abandoned for a long time, this is called immortality. In my opinion, only by achieving these three items can one be considered a true saint!"
Wei Xiang looked at the face of the Confucius in Taichang Temple like a screen and murmured: "Cultivating virtue means creating a law, spreading the law, and helping the people; making merit means saving troubles and eliminating difficulties, and helping the times; making words means saying things are essential and reason is enough to pass on."
"Ren Hong was in charge of his descendants of officials and descendants. He joined the Yumen army, galloped across the Western Regions, pacified the Western Qiang, and connected two ways to save Wusun and help the emperor to quell the Huo rebellion. He eventually defeated the Xiongnu, and killed the Shanyu head and returned. His achievements were already comparable to Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, and even slightly exceeded those of them. Therefore, he was granted the title of 20,000 Marquis, and was the crown of the marquis since the Han Dynasty. He was appointed as the General of the Grand Sima and the General of the Cavalry, and became the leader of all officials. His contribution was beyond words."
Even the pure and religious scholars had to admit this.
Wei Xiang said: "The merits have been made, but Ren Hong is less than 30 years old. In the past five years, he has handed over military talismans and has not been involved in the government affairs. He has retired at home, mainly to make statements."
The world does not know how Ren Hong’s academic foundation is. After all, the Marquis of Xi’an cherishes his feathers very much and has never publicly argued with anyone. He only knows that his eldest disciple Liu Gengsheng, who is very good at fighting against the Yang, can fight against the old scholars of the Liang family, will not be at a disadvantage.
Wei Xiang praised him with great stinginess: "For this, I believe that the Marquis of Xi'an himself has already mastered the Five Classics. He has only been like this for only five years. He is worthy of being a general and a prime minister."
Judging from today, Ren Hongli's words are effective. He has already broken the entire chapter of Zuo Zhuan, compiled the meaning and reason, and can make up the arguments and make up the arguments. He can compete with Gongyang and Liang, which is already "reasonable enough to be passed on."
"Now, Ren Hong is only a matter of establishing virtue."
Establishing virtue is not just morality, but creating laws and teachings, spreading people to benefit the people, that is, creating a system to benefit sentient beings, which is a great virtue.
The Han people believed that the "Spring and Autumn Annals" were the Han system, so the Gongyang Zhuan became the first of the Five Classics. If the "Zuo Zhuan" and "Jiliang" replaced Gongyang's superior throne, after the academic prosper, the view of the Yixia that the school wanted to promote would also affect the world. Therefore, those who can make words may not be able to establish virtue, and those who can make virtue must first make words.
From this perspective, Ren Hong has the opportunity to achieve the "Three Immortals".
Looking at the past and present, only Duke Zhou was the only one. Even Confucius was a little less in his meritorious service. He was all thanks to his apprentices and his disciples to make gold. He praised the Spring and Autumn Period to follow the orthodox Zhou Dynasty and make the Han Dynasty a sage. He became a saint.
"If Zuo Zhuan replaces Gongyang, Ren Hong has become a three-legged saint and become a Zhou Gong in the future, how should the Han emperor deal with it?"
Although there was no mention of abdication in Zuo Zhuan, Gongyang did not mention abdication at first. It was something that Dong Zhongshu and his descendants transformed and added. Who knew what new meanings Ren Hong would come up with in the future?
Therefore, as long as Ren Hong is still alive, even if Zuo Zhuan has the appearance of Daxing, the emperor will not be able to recognize him as an official school.
This is something that Wei Xiang is sure of, the only thing he can't figure it out is...
"With Ren Hong's intelligence, he would not have thought of this. Why did he let the idle rich man do not do it, but insist on being the 'saint' that the emperor feared?"
Wei Xiang thought of a possibility: "Can he really have a different ambition!"
...
"Crown Prince, how about the three families today's refutation?"
In the greenhouse hall, Liu Xun asked his beloved son to talk about his feelings about the meeting at Shiqu Pavilion these two days.
Liu Quji was a little unable to say that these three families had just six words, "the first month of the spring king in the first year", and every sentence had to be extended, citing the Secretariat, poetry, rituals and other chapters.
He was only nine years old and had just finished learning the Analects of Confucius and the Book of Filial Piety. He was like a primary school student who suddenly heard a debate from a university professor. He couldn't understand two or a half sentences in three sentences. His experience was so sleepy and tired, so he was so dull and never spoke for a long time.
Liu Xun was very patient with his eldest son and smiled and said, "Just say, who can you understand what you say?"
Liu Quji endured his sleepiness, thought for a while and said, "You can understand the story of "Zuo Zhuan" that Liu Gengsheng told a little."
This is natural. Among the three biographys of the Spring and Autumn Period, Zuo Zhuan is the least threshold. After all, it is written in history. Just like the articles selected by Ren Hong and Yang Yun in the book of Taishi Gong were popular in Chang'an, in recent years, after the Marquis of Xi'an tinkered with paper, he also copied the story of Zuo Zhuan on it and spread it widely. Cao Gui's debate and Zhu Zhiwu retreated to the Qin army, which are all popular.
Moreover, when the school was first developed, the principles of the principles were not complicated, but it was no longer as simple as Gongyang, who could only proficient in the principles of the scriptures.
Liu Xun knew very well that the Marquis of Xi'an was concerned about himself and did not teach on a large scale. Otherwise, it would only take a few years for the Zuo Zhuan faction to expand rapidly.
The prince couldn't tell why. He was only nine years old and was not a genius, so he could not understand the governing philosophy implicit in the meaning of the three families.
But Liu Xun was very clear.
Compared to Gongyang, who is out of touch with the times, he is conservative and always stares at the squintessential Jingliang, the active and outgoing Zuo Zhuan is indeed more in line with Liu Xun's wishes.
In terms of inherited ancient rituals, Zuo Zhuan preserved more than Gongyang and Guiliang, and in terms of pioneering the future, he was also bolder than them.
"The way of Zhou is to use Xia to transform Yi!"
The entire chapter of the New Zuo Zhuan uses more than 200 years of history to explain this concept everywhere, thinking that the Zhou Dynasty's rituals and music were limited to the Zhou Luoyi, and the Zhou Duke reorganized and divided the princes to promote the Zhou rituals to the world. Only in this way did the Xia Dynasty be born, which was different from the external Rongdi barbarians.
Today, the Han Dynasty was also at a similar node. In the Central Plains, all the ties of the crown were rewarded and all the deceased were left behind. However, there were still many barbarians and kings in Jiaozhou, Jingzhou, Liangzhou, Yizhou, Youzhou and Sandu Protectors, and there were still few barbarians and kings, and the political and religious affairs were not added, and the flow was still weak. As for the feudal state of the Han Dynasty, there were also rude countries, which were left to kill them, and the monarchs and ministers were changed, and the ranks and inferiors were disordered.
The emperor has a way, and he should guard the four barbarians, thinking that he should take the initiative to attack, export rituals, music, benevolence and righteousness, and make the surrounding areas become civilized countries. Only in this way can he eliminate stubborn people such as the Xiongnu Zhizhi Shanyu, who are evil invading the Pamir Mountains, and violate righteousness and invade rituals on the border.
If the leader of Zuo Zhuan's sect changed to anyone, Liu Xun would accept it with pleasure, and would even treat him like Gongsun Hong, and be granted a title of marquis and ministers.
However, it was the Marquis of Xi'an who had made great contributions to the Han family and could not be rewarded with great achievements.
"Marty of Xi'an, what exactly do you want to do? A saint who is comparable to Duke Zhou and Confucius?"
The emperor respects the ancestors because the saint is dead. If he lives in the world with a living saint, it may not feel good.
Liu Xun thought so and couldn't help coughing a few times. When he was young, he thought he was in good health. Until he was over 30 years old, the disease that he fell in prison began to occur when he was young. Although he was taken care of by Bingji, he was a prison where there was no sunshine all year round. Liu Xun even suspected that the two nurses Bingji found for him were poor female prisoners, and perhaps they also had diseases, and they were infused into his body with milk.
In the past two years, Liu Xun was worried. He even began to follow the old path of great-grandfathers, and practiced the story of Emperor Wu, asking gods and worshiping immortals, and ceremonial sacrifices. He heard that there were golden horses and green roosters in Yizhou, which could be sacrificed by offering sacrifices, so he sent a counselor, Shu County Prince, to praise him and ask for him.
But I also know that this is useless. I just want to do my best to be at peace with my destiny. I will not die early, but I must be prepared to not survive Ren Hong. Liu Xun was sure to suppress Ren Hong when he was alive, but what if it was his son?
I'm afraid the story of General Huo Guang will be repeated again. Huo Guang was considered "unlearning and ignorant" by Confucian scholars, but Ren Hong has learned and learned now. Although Gongyang and Guiliang do not recognize him, if Zuo Zhuan has risen, what would the scholars in the world think? With such great achievements, coupled with the identity of the new leader, it is hard to say that he will be portrayed as the "saint" born to fate.
When Liu Xun was most suspicious, he even secretly calculated the meaning of "those who replace Han Dynasty should be Tu Gao". Tu is the way, and those who dou Gao is the way, which seems to be a miss.
But the road is the road, and although Ren Hong does not have the name of highway, he has a long way to go!
Liu Xun seemed fair and peaceful on the surface, but he was a little irritated inside. This was different from the path he had imagined five years ago. He had planned to let Ren Hong be the teacher of the crown prince.
But he didn't want him to become a teacher for all the people of the world. It was a terrible thing to explain the transformation of the Han system and the destiny of heaven to others. Liu Xun hoped that the descendants of the Liu family would have the throne, but not to go to a ram and another tiger.
Thinking of this, the Secretary of the Central Secretariat Ling Honggong came to report that the three families in the Spring and Autumn Period had been ordered to send their own writings into the palace, so that the emperor and officials could determine the advantages and disadvantages of the three families in the next few days. After all, although the debate in the past two days was fierce, in terms of the theory of the three families, it was still a glimpse of the leopard.
Liu Xun asked the Huangmen to bring the books from the three families up, and the differences between the three families can be seen from the works submitted for review.
There are many factions of Gongyang, who learned a hundred million words. Even if he only teleported the meaning of Dong Zhongshu and the book, he still loaded two cars, which made people look big. However, Gongyang has begun to use the rattan paper used by the government in recent years for official documents. Long yellow scrolls of paper replaced the bamboo slips, and each scroll shows that Gongyang is still very good at conservative changes. They do not refuse new things, especially in order to survive.
The folk song "Jingliang" is a little more streamlined and still adheres to the theory of Xiaqiu Jianggong. However, because of the conservative nature of Jingliang, he still insists on using bamboo slips, and the volumes are very heavy, which makes the Huangmen's ministers sweat on their foreheads.
Zuo Zhuan also transported a large basket, which surprised Honggong a little. Didn’t it mean that even if the new meaning was added, was Zuo Zhuan still the shortest compared to the various teachers of the two schools?
The things in the basket made him even more puzzled. They were not bamboo slips or paper scrolls, but "paper books" that were stacked together with glue and pierced with thin lines. The soap cover contained the six words "Zuo Zhuan Zhengyi" written on the soap-colored cover. After turning it over, I found that each page was a small fucking clerk, arranged neatly in one piece, like a square array waiting to be reviewed.
When Honggong presented this thing, Liu Xun was not too surprised and said, "I'm afraid it's the new trick of the Marquis of Xi'an again."
Over the past five years, the Marquis of Xi'an has made a small invention every now and then. It's no wonder that he sees it. However, this "paper book" is indeed amazing. The content of a book can match dozens of bamboo slips.
But soon Liu Xun discovered something strange. The books in this basket had the same content, which was obviously a replica of the first book. The most shocking thing was that no matter which page you flipped, the handwriting on it was exactly the same!
Since ancient times, the dissemination of knowledge can only be achieved by hand copying, and even a slasher and penman cannot copy two lines of characters exactly the same. The handwriting is not very similar to handwriting, but more like...
"It was stamped with a seal."
When the close ministers looked at each other, Jianzhang Weiwei Jin Anshang remembered something and reported: "Your Majesty, over the past few days, an article has suddenly circulated among the people of Chang'an, which is similar to the Zuo Zhuan Jingyi. Although there are many volumes, the handwriting on each article is exactly the same, all like marks."
Liu Xun frowned. He had already felt that, or, in his heart, he was actually waiting for this day in his heart, something was trying to escape from his control: "What article is it?"
"The "Brief of the State of the Great Qin State in Haixi" presented by the Marquis of Xi'an after returning from the south!"
