The matter of the Mo family's concurrent cultivation of the hundred schools of thought quickly spread from the Guozijian to the entire literary circle of Chang'an City, and the doctrine of the hundred schools of thought, which had been silent for thousands of years, was once again pushed to the forefront.

Some people sneered, thinking that this was a nonsense thing, and the example of the bus and horse carriage was just an example.

Someone pondered. It is already difficult for literati to achieve something in the article after the hundred schools of thought, and perhaps it may be a good idea to find another way to cultivate the hundred schools.

Some frustrated literati were thrilled that since the traditional method could not succeed on their own, there might be another surprise if they tried it.

Some touted it, others scoffed.

The literary world of the entire Chang'an City is calm on the surface, but it is indeed turbulent in private.

In the Mo Mansion.

Li Chengqian looked at the rows of books from hundreds of schools in Merton's study, picked up a copy of "Lu's Spring and Autumn" and flipped through it, and couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Mo is talented! It's beyond the reach of the clever! ”

Merton shook his head and said: "Brother Gao Ming is polite, it is not the initiative of the junior brother to cultivate a hundred schools of thought, it is just a collection of people's teeth and wisdom, why not Brother Gao Ming is not a concurrently cultivating a hundred schools." ”

Li Chengqian's eyes flashed, and he asked rhetorically: "What do you mean by Brother Mo's words?" ”

Merton said: "Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty once said: "The Han family has its own system, which is based on the overlord and the way of the king, which is the way of the royal family, and the younger brother does not believe that what Brother Gao Ming has learned is only a Confucian classic." ”

As the crown prince, Li Chengqian was carefully cultivated by Li Shimin as his successor, and he naturally had to dabble in all aspects of the disciplines he studied.

"Brother Mo misunderstood, although Gao Ming's learning is very miscellaneous, he only dabbles in it slightly, but it is not as good as Brother Mo and cultivating a hundred schools." Li Chengqian waved his hand.

At this moment, Confucianism is the orthodox thought, and Li Chengqian, as the crown prince, naturally has to maintain the consistency of orthodox thought.

"Outer Confucianism and internal law are the way of law, this is the ruling method adopted by successive dynasties, and there is no taboo." Merton said directly.

On the surface, Confucianism is admired, but in practice it relies on Legalism, while Taoism is mostly adopted at the beginning of the founding of the country to recuperate.

At this moment, not long after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, coupled with Li Tang's self-belief that he was Lao Tzu, the traces of Taoism are even more obvious.

"External Confucianism and internal law, help it with the way."

Li Chengqian is also a smart person, and his eyes suddenly lit up when he heard the words, and he was thoughtful.

"Brother Mo is also in his words! Rao is like this, just relying on Brother Mo's open-mindedness to break the door is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Li Chengqian said.

His involvement in a hundred schools is a royal education, and Merton, a child of the Mo family, has cultivated a hundred schools at the same time, but he has great courage.

Merton smiled bitterly: "The little brother's move is also out of helplessness, the Mo family is already on the verge of life and death, if you are self-contained at this time, it will be self-defeating." ”

"The open Mo family?" Li Chengqian said in a condensed voice, and then he remembered the slogan of the former Merton. He originally thought that the openness mentioned by Merton was to let the Mo family cooperate with the hundred schools, but he didn't expect that he still underestimated Merton's open-mindedness.

Merton nodded solemnly and said, "Yes, open!" Only when the Mohists abandon the view of the gateway and blend with the hundred schools of thought can it be possible to cooperate, otherwise everything is just a castle in the air? ”

"Pavilion in the sky, what is the reason for this?" It was the first time Li Chengqian had heard this word, and he was puzzled.

Merton explained: "This is a Buddhist fable in Tianzhu, which says that there was a rich man, very stupid, who once saw another rich man who had a small three-story building that was very beautiful, so he wanted to build one, so he asked craftsmen to come and start the work. The next day the craftsman was digging foundations in the ground and laying bricks, and the rich man asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

The craftsman replied, "I'm laying the foundation, and I'm going to do the bottom layer first." The rich man shook his head and said, "I don't want to go down two floors, only the third floor." "When everyone heard this, they all laughed at the rich and stupid, and they didn't know that there were no one or two floors, and even the most clever craftsmen couldn't build a castle in the air."

Li Chengqian thought for a while, and couldn't help but nod his head and praised: "I didn't expect Tianzhu's knowledge to be so wise." ”

"There are more than 10 million learnings in this world, not only all the sons have their own strengths, but even outside the Tang Dynasty, the major ancient civilizations are also bright and prosperous, how can it be a doctrine and be applicable all over the world." Merton scoffed.

Li Chengqian was slightly silent, of course he knew that the doctrine that Murton said was Confucianism, as the crown prince of the dynasty, although he was smart, his vision was naturally different from that of ordinary people, and he was naturally vaguely aware that Confucianism also had all kinds of flaws, but it was not a half-part treatise that could govern the world.

Li Chengqian naturally heard that Merton had said that there were several ancient civilizations, and he also knew that in the extreme west, there was a country that was not inferior to the Tang Dynasty.

Li Chengqian looked left and right, saw that there was no one around, hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and asked: "What if I find a big flaw in some doctrines when I am cultivating a hundred schools of thought!" ”

Merton's expression moved, and he said solemnly: "Take its essence and remove its badness." ”

Li Chengqian was shocked when he heard this, and he was immediately enlightened.

"Teachable!" Li Chengqian solemnly bowed to Merton.

With the success of the trial operation of seven buses and carriages in Chang'an County, it added another proof to the theory of the Mo family and the cultivation of a hundred schools, and the books of the hundred schools of thought in Chang'an City were once again hot.

And with the operation of the bus and horse-drawn carriage, its advertising role once again exerted, Chang'an City is the center of gravity of the Tang Dynasty, and the usual business travel is endless, which has directly given birth to the industry that specializes in soliciting customers into Beijing, especially between Chang'an City and Luoyang, which is even more frequent.

The four-wheeled passenger car with its huge carrying capacity, directly moved these merchants who specialized in pulling people, ordinary carriages can only pull seven or eight people at most, and the four-wheeled passenger car directly doubled, at least sixteen people.

Four-wheeled buses are naturally different from bus carriages, and the original standing positions have all been converted into seats, and even the aisles have been made into stools that can be changed into folding, and if you don't pity the horsepower, twenty people can pull it.

"Intercity bus system!"

In the champion building, all the giants of the bus industry in Chang'an City are concentrated here, frowning and discussing the precedent of Mojia wine in various industries, and this time the Mojia invitation was extremely smooth.
