"Grass people Zou Yan greets His Highness!"

After Zou Yan saw Liu De, he immediately knelt down and bowed, although Zou Yan claimed to be an old man, idle clouds and wild cranes, and a master at ease, but after seeing Liu De, he was also terrified in his heart, and Liu De's majesty was too great.

"Zou Gong, please get up!"

Liu De looked at Qian's face, and politely helped Zou Yan up, speaking of which Liu De had an understanding of Zou Yan's doctrine of yin and yang, which belongs to a branch of the Taoist school, and can also be called the five elements of yin and yang.

To put it mildly, the formation of Chinese medical theory is still based on the theory of yin and yang and the five elements, and Liu De values Zou Yan not only because of Qian's recommendation, but also because Zou Yan's five virtues have always been said, which can provide a theoretical basis for Liu De to change the dynasty.

No matter how strong Liu De's military strength is, in terms of ideology, the people of the world must think that the Han Dynasty Zhou is reasonable, so that when Liu De becomes emperor, no one will be able to object.

Even if it is unreasonable, in the face of class interests, some people will deliberately make up for reasonableness.

However, the only side effect of the Five Virtues Doctrine is that at the end of the Han Dynasty, careerists may also use the Five Virtues Doctrine to usurp the Han, in Liu De's view, in the feudal society, if you can't get rid of the agrarian society dominated by the agrarian economy, no matter how you reform, you can't escape the fate of 300 years.

Is it possible for you to let Liu De do the industrial revolution now?

So Liu De is also very open-minded, but if he can make his dynasty live longer, Liu De is also willing to make some efforts for it.

So with Liu De's approval, Zou Yan expounded the doctrine of the five virtues that he had said to the Qian family, "The Great Han is the soil virtue, it is the water virtue of the Zhou Dynasty, and the world will eventually be controlled by His Royal Highness!" ”

"And the east belongs to wood, wood and earth, so please be careful of the enemy in the east, it is best to only send generals to go, and do not want to drive the expedition in person."

"Oriental?"

Liu De laughed and said: "Only Xiang Yu in the East can be called a hero, but although Xiang Yu has high ambitions but narrow-mindedness, although he has courage, he has no resourcefulness, and he lacks the temperament to be obedient and magnanimous. ”

Zou Yan immediately stopped persuading.

Liu De took Zou Yan's good observation of the celestial phenomena, so he prepared to build the Qin Heavenly Prison, and took Zou Yan as the Qin Heavenly Supervisor, as the positive six products, observing the celestial phenomena, calculating the solar terms, and formulating the calendar.

Zou Yan was ordered to take office.

When he returned to the Tianchangguan outside Beiping City, he said to Changyun Zhenren: "Han Gong didn't listen to me, insisted on personally leading the Eastern Expedition, I am afraid that if I am a little careless, it will be a sign of great disaster, Han Gong is in trouble, I don't know when the world will be chaotic?" ”

Changyun Zhenren was quite optimistic, and said with a smile: "You old way, now come here to be compassionate and compassionate, the general trend of the world, divided and combined, must be Haotian's arrangement, if Haotian agrees to His Royal Highness Han Gong to dominate the world, then Han Gong can turn evil into good fortune even if it is dangerous and difficult, if Haotian does not agree with His Royal Highness Han Gong to dominate the world, even if he escapes the Eastern Crusade, he can't avoid other disasters." ”

"You're thinking a lot!"

Zou Yan could only laugh and scold in the end.

......

Liu De received a letter from Weizhou Mu Gaoxi, saying that he had found a person named Wang Meng, and the first time Liu De knew Wang Meng was on the list of the top ten strategists in Xu Shao's [World Commentary], Wang Meng ranked eighth, and Weizhou was in the opposition.

Liu De is not sure if this Wang Meng is the Wang Meng summoned by his own system, but he thinks that he can rank eighth, his ability is not bad, and he is in the opposition, so it is worth Liu Dela.

It's a pity that when Liu De was in Wuwei, he sent someone to find Wang Meng but couldn't find it, and when Liu De returned to Beiping, he could only tell Weizhou Mu Gaoxi to pay more attention to this person, and if he found it, he would immediately report to Beiping.

And Gao Xi said in the letter that Wang Meng was willing to serve the imperial court, and after Gao Xi's examination, Wang Meng was indeed a great talent, Gao Xi praised it in the letter, and then Gao Xi sent a team of people to escort Wang Meng to Beiping.

However, Weizhou is a long way away, and Wang Meng is afraid that it will take three or four months to arrive.

Then, Liu De went to the Hanlin Academy again, and the imperial examination was held as scheduled, but he was out on the expedition, so this time he went to the Hanlin Academy to reflect the importance of the candidates who were admitted to the imperial examination.

I also had to go to the martial arts hall, but only on the second day.

When the Hanlin Academy learned that Liu De was coming, everyone was quite excited, after all, they learned literature and martial arts, sold goods to the emperor's family, they studied hard for a cold autumn, and participated in the imperial examination, choosing one in a hundred miles, isn't it just for today?

"We meet Your Highness!"

Under the leadership of the Hanlin Academy's sacrificial wine drama Zhicai and a group of attendants and attendants, the students respectfully paid homage to the Han Gong.

"Everybody, get up!"

Liu De also wore a scribe shirt today, just to show respect for the students, the king is the minister, the minister is also the king, Liu De's current generation is not the Ming and Qing dynasties, the scholar is still arrogant and arrogant, the knee has not been broken, and the spine has not been bent.

Subsequently, Liu De and more than 100 scholars sat in the courtyard together, there were stone tables and stone benches, and there were also big trees in the shade, and occasionally the breeze came slowly, but it was quite comfortable.

Liu De said with a smile: "At this time, how can there be no good wine?" Come on, serve the wine, and the lonely and all the big people want to have a drink! ”

After a few drinks, Liu De also talked freely with everyone about the past years, but the atmosphere gradually became harmonious, and everyone was not as afraid of Liu De as before.

A scholar was bold and stepped forward to Liu De and said: "Your Highness, if you are accompanied by wine, how can you be accompanied by poetry, the student Qi Shuqiang, dare to write a poem, to help the fun." ”

"Good! Brother Qi is the best poet among us, and today he will be able to make a poem that will be praised by the world! ”

Several of them, who should be friends of this Brother Qi, shouted loudly in the back.

Qi Shuqiang also looked at Liu De with blazing eyes, obviously wanting to make Liu De remember himself through this means, but this Qi brother may not know that Liu De attaches importance to the means of governing people's livelihood, rather than these gorgeous rhetoric and poetry.

Poetry and poetry can relax the mood and cultivate sentiment, but it is useless for governing the country.

Of course, even if this is the case, Liu De will not blame this person, if this person does a good job in poetry and is proficient in government affairs, wouldn't it be better.

Liu De said very cooperatively: "Then let's write a poem about it!" ”

"Please ask Your Highness to ask for a question!"

Liu De is a little curious, it seems that he has already made a poem, but he really has some skills in poetry.

Liu De nodded, looked around, and suddenly felt a gust of wind moving, and the leaves rustled, so Liu De said: "Then how about a poem with the wind as the theme?" ”

This Brother Qi replied: "Please also ask Your Highness to give the student a little time." ”

"Then the time limit is one stick of incense!"

Liu De put down the wine cup, and then said to everyone: "You can take the wind as the theme, make a poem, the subject matter is not limited, read it in public, if you win everyone's applause, then you will be rewarded!" ”

When everyone heard this, they were all in good spirits, especially those students who didn't want to see Qi Shuqiang's brilliance, and they were racking their brains thinking about how to make a poem about "wind".

Xi Zhicai also looked at the students around him with a smile, and raised the wine cup to toast Liu De.

Liu De drank all the wine and said to Xi Zhicai: "These students, are they virtuous talents? ”

"Don't hide it from Your Highness, these are all pillars of talent! Wait until a few years, more than ten years later, above the court, they will have a foothold! ”
