One Thousand and Twenty-Six White Tiger Meeting
Knowing that Guo was going to give him a team to lead to repair history together, Cai Yong was very happy.
"Your Majesty really wants to gather so many people to cultivate history together? And you have to make the preface yourself? ”
"That's natural, this kind of big thing can't be sloppy, I stand in the Wei Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, and I should respect the previous dynasty as orthodoxy and repair history for the previous dynasty, of course, it is a state affair."
Guo Peng said with a smile: "And Cai Gong don't call me Your Majesty, call me a cousin, this is in private, there is no one else, Cai Gong does not need to be polite." ”
Cai Yong looked left and right, and looked at Su Yuan, who was smiling like a chrysanthemum, standing aside, and let go of his heart.
"Okay, Zifeng, history books have always been the words of the historian's family, and the emperor has never happened to let many people participate in history revision, how did you think of doing this?"
Cai Yong was a little cautious when he asked, as if he was worried that Guo Peng would be angry because of something.
Guo Peng smiled.
"Originally, it couldn't be said to be a big deal, but Cai Gong was old, worried that Cai Gong was tired, and arranged a group of assistants for Cai Gong, Cai Gong only needed to control the specific process.
Cai Yong was very happy about this.
"With Zifeng's help, this time, I will definitely be able to compile an unprecedented majestic work!"
Subsequently, Cai Yong and Guo Peng had a conversation about how to operate this "Book of the Later Han Dynasty".
For example, what genre to use, whether to imitate the historical records and Han books, or to create another way of writing.
When writing, you should control what kind of core content, mainly praise or belittle, whether some sensitive events should be written, and so on.
Guo gave a more detailed guide on this.
He believes that the revision of history is not only academic, but also political.
The Wei Dynasty and the Han Dynasty were established, since the Han Dynasty was orthodox, of course, the orthodoxy is mainly praised, and it cannot be depreciated casually, and the glorious deeds of the Han Emperor should be carried forward.
Leave it to future generations as much as possible a glorious and majestic image.
The genre is as follows: Cai Yong can play, whether it is Sima Qian, or whether it is a brother or sister in the class, how to write and how to write.
Write as detailed as possible, don't worry about pen and ink, and don't spare words like gold, he can provide Cai Yong with enough paper and pen and ink, because Zuo Bo paper has recently dropped in price.
Try to write about the process and results of sensitive events, write about what happened, don't make too many comments, let future generations know what happened, and people who revise history should not have a personal subjective color.
This is what Guo asked Cai Yong to pay attention to.
"This is not a wild essay, nor is it a private history, since it is a collective revision by the official organization of the country, then it is natural to pay attention to a realistic situation, what happened, write it, but you must pay attention to it, you can't have comments and obvious emotions, this point, Cai Gong must grasp the scale."
Guo put forward such a specific request, and Cai Yong agreed.
"Since it is the first time in history that the emperor agrees with the revision of history, it should naturally be detailed and complete, do not add personal opinions, only look at the facts, and try to be impartial."
Guo nodded.
Then another thing was brought up.
"Cai Gong, starting from the "Taishi Gongshu", and then to the later "Book of Han", I found that historians always like some auspicious things when describing the birth of the emperor, and make some mysterious things, in fact, we all know in our hearts that it is fictional, in this case, should we also keep this part of the content in the history books we compiled?"
Guo Peng looked at Cai Yong: "For example, Liu Xiu should be the Son of Heaven or something......
Guo's strange eyes made Cai Yong a little uncomfortable.
Things are different now.
Guo has already secured the throne.
That being said, there are some different ideas.
Cai Yong thought for a while and spoke cautiously.
"This ...... The true son of heaven came into the world, of course, it will be different, the previous dynasty since the White Tiger View Conference, has agreed that the study of the Wei Wei is orthodox academic, today, the study of the Wei Wei is also a thing that everyone agrees on, Zifeng ascended the throne as the emperor, it is the will of heaven, but also the will of the people, just like the previous Emperor Guangwu. ”
Guo was more satisfied with Cai Yong's statement.
"I see, that's it......"
After being silent for a while, Guo smiled at Cai Yong.
"Cai Gong, please leave this matter to Cai Gong, for the previous dynasty to repair history, for the previous dynasty to make a summary, I will do my best to provide Cai Gong with the necessary help, if I can, I want to see Cai Gong's works as soon as possible, I hope Cai Gong will do his best."
Cai Yong hurriedly said that he understood.
Sending Cai Yong away, Guo Peng also instructed this matter.
He looked for reliable people with a certain literary standard in the official group and sent them to Cai Yong, and worked hard with Cai Yong to start the compilation of the Book of the Later Han Dynasty.
If there is any problem in the future, it will be decided whether this history book is completed or not through the approval of his own side anyway, so Guo Peng is not worried about what will happen to the Book of the Later Han Dynasty.
No matter what, it's in your own control.
But Cai Yong's mention of the White Tiger View meeting did make Guo someone care.
This was a conference with little reputation, but it had a decisive significance for the entire Eastern Han Dynasty and even the future academic direction.
This meeting, which took place during the period of Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty, was presided over by Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty himself, and all the famous Confucian scholars from all over the world were summoned to Luoyang, and it was a decisive meeting to coordinate and integrate the various academic schools that had been relatively chaotic since the Xinmang Dynasty.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed the Hundred Schools of Thought and established the Doctor of the Five Classics, which established the five Confucian classics as officially recognized orthodox doctrines and allowed them to spread within the empire.
In the process of dissemination, the five classics gradually diverged due to the different understandings of the inheritors.
Due to the absence of punctuation, the broken sentences of the article are of great significance to the interpretation of the classics, and in the process of teaching the disciples, the students' understanding of the broken sentences is different.
As a result, a classic sentence can often produce many ways to break sentences, and different sentence breaking methods also make earth-shaking changes in the meaning of the classics they understand.
The same sentence, because of the different sentences, produces different meanings, which is the fundamental reason for the emergence of the five classics and the fourteen inheritances.
In order to get their own method of sentence breaking and to reject other methods of sentence breaking, the readers launched a protracted struggle for their own interests.
In fact, there are far more than 14 ways to interpret broken sentences, and the 14 family methods of the Five Classics formed in the Eastern Han Dynasty are the 14 officially recognized classical interpretation methods of the Five Classics.
Before all this took shape, there were fierce debates in both the Western and Eastern Han dynasties about the different interpretations of the various theories.
As early as the period of Emperor Xuan of the Western Han Dynasty, in order to calm down the increasingly fierce dispute over the right to interpret the classics, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty held a meeting in Shiqu Pavilion.
Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty affirmed certain classical interpretation methods from an official point of view, allowing everyone to seek common ground while reserving differences, quelling disputes, and stabilizing the academic environment.
However, the Shiqu Pavilion meeting did not fully resolve the dispute.
In the new period, disputes resumed.
In the early Eastern Han Dynasty, in order to consolidate his position and establish the legitimacy of his rule, Liu Xiu issued an edict to include the study of Wei Wei in the official orthodox doctrine, requiring all academic sects to agree with his practice.
And that led to even greater chaos.
In order to quell such confusion and controversy, after the death of Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty decided to hold a large meeting at the White Tiger Temple in Luoyang to completely solve the problem.
This is related to the unity of the idea of imperial rule, and it is of great significance to the governance of the empire.
