Chapter 112: Zheng Xuan
Yuan Shu had long planned to build a top-notch academy.
There are now many academies in Yangzhou, but these academies are only used for enlightenment, teaching the children of poor families or the children of the common people with conditions to read and write and some basic knowledge.
Relying on these academies and Yuan Shu can't cultivate backbone talents at all, and the cultivated ones are all small officials, who can only deal with some small things. And the backbone talents who can really manage a county or even a county have to be selected from the families and the children of the poor.
But the number of outstanding children of the poor family is too small, and the children of the poor family in the entire Yangzhou officialdom are less than thirty percent of the whole, and most of these people are quite different from the children of the family, so Yuan Shucai always has to look at the face of the family and be constrained by it.
With such a weakness pinched by the family, Yuan Shu, who has a strong desire to control, has always felt very uneasy. If you can't change this situation, as your ruling territory grows, you will become more and more restricted by the family. Therefore, Yuan Shu urgently needed to establish a top academy to cultivate a large number of backbone talents who were loyal to him.
And it is not easy to establish a top-level academy and attract talented children from poor families to come and study. Abundant books, strong teachers, and top Confucians are all indispensable.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, there were two top colleges, one was Yingchuan Academy and the other was Lumen Academy.
Yingchuan Academy was opened by the Xun family, and there are countless talents who have come out of it, such as Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai, Xun Yu, Xi Zhicai, etc.
Basically, the famous strategists under Cao Cao basically came from here. And the Xun family is probably also optimistic about Cao Cao, so there will be so many talented people who defect to him.
And Lumen Academy is not bad at all, the dean is Mr. Shuijing Sima Hui, and there are many talents who come out of it, such as Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Xu Shu, etc. Similarly, Liu Bei relied on these people to make his fortune.
If Yuan Shu wants to be free from the constraints of the family and have enough backbone talents, he naturally needs to build such a top academy. He is not short of money and food now, and there are more books robbed in Luoyang than in the previous two academies combined, and the teacher's problems are easy to solve.
That's why Guo Jia went around searching for the traces of these great Confucians.
There were only a few of the most famous Confucians in the late Han Dynasty, and Lu Zhi had been invited away by Yuan Shao, but fortunately, he had not been in good health here, and according to historical estimates, he would not live for more than a year.
Cai Yong is highly valued by Dong Zhuo, and this product is bent on Han and is unwilling to cooperate with Yuan Shu, if Dong Zhuo does not die, Yuan Shu really can't get this goods. Among the rest of the people, Zheng Xuan can handle it.
Although this product is over sixty years old, his body is still quite tough, and with Zhang Zhongjing here, it is no problem to live for another twenty years. And he resigned and lived in seclusion in Xuzhou, just not far from Yangzhou.
Yuan Shu talked about his ideas and plans to spread knowledge and the people of the world, and then handed over the printed books, and the goods immediately lit up, and they were ready to come to Yangzhou.
Tao Qian couldn't stop him, after all, Zheng Xuan was a famous Confucian all over the world, and no matter who he was, he had to be respectful. No one dared to force him wherever he wanted to go, otherwise most of the soldiers under his command would have to rebel.
Think about the history of You Heng dared to jump in front of Cao Cao's eyes, scolded Cao Cao's subordinates all over again, but was forcibly thrown to Jingzhou by Cao Cao, isn't it because this product has the name of Confucianism?
In order to invite Lu Zhi of Hebei to come out of the mountain, even Yuan Shao, who was arrogant and the third prince of the fourth world, had to come to the door respectfully and respectfully, and asked for it with a posture, which shows how loud the name of Confucianism is. In the prosperous era, these people scolded the emperor in front of the emperor, and the emperor and the people below did not dare to squeak. Of course, the Spirit Emperor's brain pumping doesn't count.
Zheng Xuan doesn't have a bad temper or a bad temper, and he doesn't care about some of Yuan Shu's dirty ideas. His goal in life was to study the scriptures and the study of Buddhism. The latter idea happened to coincide with Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shu still had almost all the Dongguan books here.
How could he still endure it? After receiving the invitation, I rushed to Yangzhou non-stop, and I was about to arrive.
In order to show his sincerity, Yuan Shugong respectfully greeted the big man in front of the gate of Jinling City, and directly took him to Jinling Academy on Zhongshan Mountain outside Jinling City.
The purple gas above Jinling is like a dragon, and Zhongshan is the place where the purple gas is the most intense. If it weren't for the fact that this was a mountain range and it was inconvenient to enter and exit, Yuan Shu would have wanted to build the General's Mansion here.
However, this place is not far from Jinling City, and it is very secluded and deep, just suitable for building a academy. Yuan Shu decisively chose to build Jinling Academy in such an isolated place. Under the addition of countless rich purple qi, it is presumable that these scholars' studies and abilities will be further improved.
Zheng Xuan had just come to the foot of Zhongshan Mountain, and when he looked up, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Highway, the scenery here is beautiful, the feng shui is good, and it can be called a treasure land!" β
Yuan Shu smiled indifferently: "Kang Chenggong really has good eyesight, this is a place carefully selected by the kid." Please Kang Chenggong hold on a little longer, Jinling Academy is on the mountain. β
Zheng Xuan jumped out of the carriage without care, straightened his sleeves and laughed heartily: "Highway, you underestimate the old man!" The old man's body is not weak. With Zhongjing here, and so many classics and students, the old man has to live for another twenty years before he is willing! β
Looking at the old man who was jumping around and moving very flexibly, Yuan Shu turned his head to look at Zhang Zhongjing speechlessly, and whispered: "I said Zhongjing!" Is Kang Chenggong really okay like this? β
Before Zhang Zhongjing could answer, Zheng Xuan slapped Yuan Shu's head: "Shaft, do you underestimate the old man so much?" I think that in order to study, the old man traveled all over the Han Dynasty, north to Saiwai, west to Xiliang, if it weren't for his age, the old man would have run around Zhongshan without breathing! But you, as a human master, how can you be so frivolous, and your body is weak and weak, what should you do on the battlefield? β
Looking at Zheng Xuan, who began to educate himself without saying a word, Yuan Shu shrank his head, and said secretly in his heart: In the past, there was a Tian Feng who taught me verbally all day long, but now this old man is here, not only teaching me, but also beating me, am I looking for discomfort by myself!
But I have to say that the great Confucians of this era are really powerful, and the six arts of the gentleman are all excellent. Especially the great Ru Lu Zhi, who can be called one of the three major generals of the Han Dynasty, is simply against the sky, and Gongsun Chan is the proud protΓ©gΓ© of this goods.
At this time, Confucianism was completely different from those rotten Confucians in later generations, and their force should not be underestimated. Not to mention anything else, even Guo Jia, who is thin and monkey-like, knows how to use swordsmanship, although it is not good, but it is still no problem against three or five soldiers.
And although the old man in front of him is not as civil and military as Lu Zhi, his strength is not to be underestimated, and now Yuan Shu may not be able to beat him one-on-one.
As soon as he mentioned martial arts, Yuan Shu was full of tears, and for some reason, he was not suitable for martial arts. Just crossed over, Yuan Shu also tried to train a body of martial arts, crisscrossing the battlefield.
But after practicing with Ji Ling for half a month and finding that there was no effect at all, Yuan Shu understood how poor his martial arts qualifications were, and decisively gave up the idea of practicing martial arts. Because he found that although he was a scumbag in terms of force, he couldn't even beat Guo Jia, but his mental power was very strong.
Perhaps it was the reason why the two souls combined together to mutate, and Yuan Shu's spiritual power was even far superior to that of a top strategist like Guo Jia. Relying on this spiritual power, although Yuan Shu could not kill the enemy, it was enough to protect himself.
Therefore, after discovering that his dream of being a fierce general was out of reach, Yuan Shu decisively gave up. Anyway, I don't have to rely on force to solve the problem, so what do you want to do from him? If he learns martial arts, what is the value of Dian Wei's existence? Yuan Shu comforted himself in his heart.
