Li Mu was originally a casual move, but he didn't expect that the effect would be so huge. His heresy spread to Chang'an City the next day, causing the anger of all the teachers and practitioners of Guozijian, Hongwenguan, and Chongwenguan, especially Kong Yingda's disciples and grandchildren, who were willing to kill 'Li Yan' with a knife to cure him for the crime of not respecting saints. But unexpectedly, Kong Yingda, who should be angry the most, did not show any special anger, although his face was also extremely ugly, but after all, he did not break out.

As soon as Kong Yingda heard this remark, he thought of Li Mu. Everyone in the world reads the books of saints, who can have such remarks on such a wild back? It was only Li Mu, a stinky boy with no awe in his eyes, that he could say such a thing.

He didn't get angry, not because he wasn't angry, but because he knew that he couldn't argue with Li Mu. Instead of humiliating yourself, it's better to keep quiet and see what happens next.

Although the academic community has caused an uproar, Li Mu himself did not take this matter to heart. He has a lot of things to deal with, and he doesn't have to waste effort on this kind of thing.

Therefore, he didn't go to the next Yaji, which made the people waiting to 'battle' with him pounce. It also made some people who agreed with his remarks a little disappointed, thinking that he was still cowardly.

When the next Yaji is available, there will not be so many people. But he didn't mind, he didn't take it too seriously, he said this, not so much to preach, but as an experiment or a temptation, to see how difficult it is for people to change their perception of things.

There is no systematic discipline for what he said, but in the final analysis, the main purpose is to oppose false Taoism, oppose empty talk, and vigorously advocate mercantilism, people-oriented, and responsibility.

Li Yan's eloquence made all those who questioned him go home. The Confucians, who had personally fallen into the field, all slipped away in disgrace. At this time, the bad guy and the fan of Dongchang finally determined that this Li Yan was Li Mu, and all the remarks of 'Li Yan' were copied down and sent to Chang'an City for Li Shimin to read.

Before going to bed, Li Shimin will read Li Mu's remarks as bedtime reading. Some, with which he agrees, will be marked. If he doesn't agree, he won't be angry or angry, but will laugh it off and let Gao Gonggong file it.

Keep it for future generations, there are some points of view, Li Shimin feels that he may not agree, but the future Tang Emperor may not be useless.

Today, a new one was delivered. Li Shimin took it over, and automatically ignored the part where Li Mu and others were fine, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and his expression became serious.

This is an exposition of 'benevolence', and some people question 'Li Yan', saying, you question the Analects, you question the sage scriptures, you question this, you question that, then in your eyes, what kind of standard should a virtuous person be?

Li Yan's answer is this: "Don't be happy with things, don't be sad with yourself." If you live in a temple, you are worried about the people, and if you are far away from the rivers and lakes, you are worried about your king. ”

"Good!" When Li Shimin read this, he couldn't help but blurt out praise. Gonggong Gao was startled on the side, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?" ”

"Li Mu, this kid is transparent!" Li Shimin handed it to Gonggong Gao and said, "These two sentences can be the flaunt of hundreds of officials." ”

Although Gonggong Gao is a eunuch, he has been with Li Shimin for a long time, and he has vision and insight. When he saw this, he immediately understood why Li Shimin was happy, which emperor didn't like such courtiers?

"Your Majesty, although the Hou Ye is a little Meng Lang, it is rare to have a pure heart!"

"I know it." Li Shimin's expression suddenly calmed down, turned another page, and said, "But someone told me that Li Mu wanted to start a sect and become a saint. ”

Gao Gonggong wants to say that this is what only villains can say. But when the words came to his mouth, he didn't dare to say it, and the people who said it this time, most likely, were just a few people. Among them, the most likely are the eldest grandson Wuji and Yuan Tiangang, if Yuan Tiangang arrives, it is fine, but if it is the eldest grandson Wuji, he can not afford to offend the uncle of the country.

In this way, there was no sound.

Li Shimin continued to look down, Li Yan's beautiful answer made the questioner speechless, and after a long while, someone continued to raise the bar and said: "Mr. said so, isn't life no fun?" Advance is also worried, retreat is also worried, when is not worried, when is happy? ”

Li Yan's answer was even more absolute: "The worries of the world are worried, and the joys of the world are happy." In this way, you can be called a gentleman! ”

Li Shimin was silent for a while, and said to Gao Gong: "What has Cheng Qian been busy with lately?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, in addition to studying, the crown prince has been acting for the affairs of the Internal Affairs Office recently, and he has been busy until late at night every day before resting."

"The affairs of the Internal Affairs Office, put aside for the time being, let him go to Luoyang first, and study with Li Mu."

Gonggong Gao was not surprised by Li Shimin's decision, so he responded and retreated to make arrangements.

Half an hour later, Gonggong Gao came back again, his expression was a little strange, Li Shimin saw his appearance and said, "What's wrong?" ”

"Back to His Majesty's words, the prince said that he didn't want to go."

"Don't want to go?" Li Shimin was also a little stunned, and said strangely: "Does he want to go?" What's going on, I suddenly changed sex? ”

"The old slave didn't know, but that's what the prince said. He said that he was taught by a master in the East Palace, and he couldn't learn a lot of things from Li Mu, so it was better to act as the internal affairs office and learn from practice. This way of learning is also admired by Li Mu, and the prince also feels that he has made a lot of progress during this period of time. ”

"Really?" Li Shimin didn't believe it, but he didn't mean to force Li Chengqian anymore, and said to Gonggong Gao: "Go to the Internal Affairs Office tomorrow and ask the prince how he has behaved recently. ”

"No."

Gao Gonggong responded, but he was uneasy in his heart, he didn't know whether he should tell Li Shimin what he saw. There is a musician by the prince's side, and the relationship between the two and their actions seem to be too close.

I hope it's not what I think, Gao Gonggong thought.

……

Li Mu went to Yaji three or four times in total, and he had already exhausted all his interests. After all, he is not a professional teacher, and he can repeat a point of view countless times, and after he has expressed everything he wants to express, it is a waste of time for him to say it again.

Moreover, no matter how famous 'Li Yan' is, it is impossible for him to really go to the academy as a teacher. If he wants to popularize ideas, he still needs more people to help. So now it's imperative to find some like-minded people.

So where do people go to find it?

If it is the imperial court that chooses to teach and practice, it is natural that the great Confucianism will not be chosen. But for Li Mu, he would not choose Confucianism, not to mention the stubbornness of these people's thoughts, it is not easy to transform, just talking about their age, it is no longer in line with Li Mu's requirements.

What he wants is fresh blood, and only the collision of new forces can create sparks.

There are some young talents in the Literature Museum, but these people think very highly of themselves, and if they are used, they will need to be beaten.

There are also some candidates, that is, the same year of Li Mu's imperial examination.

Since the Tang Dynasty had just begun to implement the imperial examination, many places were not perfect. Let's just say that in the imperial examination that Li Mu participated in last year, in addition to the 'Jinshi', many others such as Xiucai and the like were not awarded officials, but aren't these people talents? They are also talents, but maybe they are not good at the imperial examination, maybe they are biased, for various reasons.

It may not be appropriate for them to be officials, but those who can be admitted to Xiucai have two brushes, and it is enough to do a teaching. These people are also the objects of Li Mu's selection. It's just that these people are from different places, and it's not so easy to get together, so his current standard is still on the people in the Literature Museum.

Today, Li Mu came to beat them. Although the Literature Museum is in Luoyang City, Li Mu really hasn't been to it once. Li Mu's contempt also made the talented people in the Literature Museum dissatisfied, and there were wild people who said that it would be best if Li Mu didn't come, if he came, he would definitely not be able to get off the stage in public.

But when Li Mu really came, these madmen didn't know where to go, and they couldn't see any of them. All the staff, when Li Mu came out of the Hou Mansion, waited at the door of the Literature Museum, standing straight one by one, with a trace of dissatisfaction.

After everyone saluted Li Mu's carriage, Li Mu lifted the curtain and got down from the carriage. After Li Tai left, Lu Yi, a great Confucian from the Fan Yang Lu clan who temporarily took over the management of the Literature Museum, respectfully asked Li Muxun to speak.

The rest of the talented people stood quietly at the foot of the steps, looking at Li Mu standing upright on the steps, and they were worried, I don't know what kind of lofty comments this legendary Hou Ye and the champion of the double list will make today.

Every talented person is unruly, and no one likes to waste their lives by listening to people's nonsense. But this time, they had to cheer up, not wanting to miss every word of Li Mu.

"You may have also heard that a madman has recently appeared in Bailu Yaji and has published a lot of opinions that are contrary to the words of the saint, and this person's name is Li Yan." I only heard Li Mu's loud voice, straight to the point, and said word by word: "Don't hide it, this Li Yan is Ben Hou." ”

Everyone was surprised, but they were not too surprised, these days, some people have guessed that Li Yan is Li Mu. Just listening to him admit it himself, he was still a little surprised, but he was only surprised. After all, he is Li Mu, and it is possible to do anything.

"Ben Hou is going straight to the point today, I want to tell you what Ben Hou really thinks."

In the eyes of Ben Hou, the premise of talent is virtue. A person who has no virtue and is selfish, no matter how good his article is, even if he is a saint and reincarnated, Ben Hou will never be reused. The existence of Bailu Academy is to cultivate talents who have both ability and political integrity and are useful to the country. I believe that most of you also have great ambitions and hope to build a great cause for your country one day. But to become a usable talent, it is not enough to read the books of the sages! ”

"So what else is needed? Ben Hou would like to mention two points here, I hope you will keep them in mind! I heard Li Mu continue: "First, morality comes first, and obeys the law!" Li Mu went to Yaji three or four times in total, and he had already overdrawn all his interests. After all, he is not a professional teacher, and he can repeat a point of view countless times, and after he has expressed everything he wants to express, it is a waste of time for him to say it again.

Moreover, no matter how famous 'Li Yan' is, it is impossible for him to really go to the academy as a teacher. If he wants to popularize ideas, he still needs more people to help. So now it's imperative to find some like-minded people.
