The world is prosperous, and after two years, the exam will start again.

There are countless candidates from all over the country.

This is an era of fluttering blue clothes, most of the Confucian shirts are plain, blue, white and blue, mostly blue, but it is not really blue, there are blue and white, and there are also green.

or a bun, or a head, for a time, the entire Bianliang City is a kind of atmosphere that points out the country and inspires words.

Bianliang Shizi, as the home field, is one of the best, and there are faint regional differences, but they are not to the point of regional discrimination, but they are also divided into gangs and gangs, and they compete in secret.

Xijing Luoyang faction, headed by Cheng Yi, one of the two journeys, entered the examination last time, and his brother Cheng Hao went to high school to become an official in other places, but Cheng Yi landed and took the exam again this year. Xijing Luoyang has always been the base camp of the Confucian conservative school in the Song Dynasty, and it is not inferior to Tokyo Bianliang in terms of learning.

Therefore, in addition to the local scholars of Bianliang, the scholars of the Luoyang faction of Xijing are the most powerful, followed by the Jiangnan scholars, who have a graceful style, which means that the Jiangnan people are not very keen on this kind of competition, because Jiangnan is too far away from Bianliang, but Luoyang is very close.

Therefore, most of the Jiangnan scholars don't know a few Bianliang scholars, unless they are very famous people like Gan Qi. And Luoyang Shizi and Bianliang Shizi, the two circles are extremely familiar, Henan is so big, the road between Kaifeng and Luoyang is easy to walk, study tours come and go, and there are many exchanges.

It is also a tradition for all the scholars in Kaifeng and Luoyang to compete with each other, which is also the enthusiastic youth of young people. Cheng Zhu Lizhi is the representative of the Luoyang School. Sima Guang, although he is not from Luoyang, but Sima Guang is also one of the representatives of the Luoyang School, and a large part of the historical masterpiece "Zizhi Tongjian" was written by Sima Guang in Luoyang. By the time Sima Guang began to write "Zizhi Tongjian", Sima Guang had already become the leader of the Luoyang faction and even the entire conservative faction.

The Cheng brothers are in the contemporary era, in fact, they are also a little out of time, the last imperial examination, the limelight of Ercheng, was covered up by the Su family brothers, and was also robbed by the four Zeng Gong brothers. The Cheng brothers didn't have time to become famous at all.

This year's Cheng Yi, I have seen all over Bianliang City, counting and counting, he is not very familiar with the people in Jiangnan, not to mention Shudi, the only one who can handle the entire Bianliang City is Gan Qi.

Cheng Yi has already had some disputes with Gan Qi, not any grudges, but the battle of young people's will.

Now that he is going to take the exam again, Cheng Yi's goal is naturally to Gan Qi again. Conservatives have the advantages of conservatives, that is, they have a deep foundation and have a deep understanding and insight into saints.

Conservatives also have the advantage of etiquette.

Cheng Yi wanted to bring Luoyang Shizi to visit Gan Qi, the etiquette was extremely thoughtful, and the posts sent to the door took countless thoughts, the handwriting was neat, the writing was flying, and the polite and courteous words hid a little bit of meaning to learn a thing or two with Gan Qi.

The person who sent the post even brought gifts to the door, and he kept making trouble.

This kind of thing is the most important pursuit in the circle of young literati. Gan Qi is like this, and Cheng Yi is actually the same.

Li Ding and Cai were very serious about this matter, and the two kept looking at the post and seeing every word clearly, but none of these two people were from Bianliang.

"Sir, Luoyang School Palace, since the Jin Dynasty, has declined, and now to our dynasty, and re-emerged, this time such a competition, must have a righteous name, Mr. can not be underestimated." Li Ding understands these, Luoyang Xue Palace, or can also be called Luoyang Taixue, that is from the Han Dynasty is a place of talents, with the decline of the Jin Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty has risen again, five dynasties and ten kingdoms are in turmoil, to the world is then determined, Luoyang is still a place with deep history and culture after all, slowly rising again.

This kind of thing can be regarded as a big school, but in fact, it can be regarded as a cultural school or a place for cultural exchange. The most famous is the Kishita Gakuguya.

To the present Northern Song Dynasty, Luoyang is one of the schools that can still be called the school palace, and then there is a stone room school palace in Shudi, which is also the state school in Chengdu.

The reason why Shu can also have such an important cultural school is that it is also a historical inheritance, and secondly, because Hou Shu did a great thing in Chengdu, engraved all the sage classics on the stone tablet, spent countless money, carved countless stone tablets, and the Northern Song Dynasty is still carving, the more and more they are carved, and they really have no class, so that those poor students can avoid the pain of having no books to read, and they can go directly to the stele forest without books, and they can copy books there and read books.

The Stone Chamber Stele Forest is like an educational holy land, radiating the entire Shu land, so in the Northern Song Dynasty, Shu can flourish in literary style and talents. Including Su Shi and Su Zhe's brothers, they were also directly or indirectly blessed by the Stone Chamber Academy.

Gan Qi is actually going to do this, that is, to engrave all the books on the stone tablets, and even build a house for these stone tablets to shelter from the wind and rain, so that anyone can browse and copy them at will, and also hope to pass them on for generations to come, so that the inheritance of culture will be endless.

It's just that this thing costs too much.

Luoyang School Palace, under the leadership of Cheng Yi, is almost about to compete with Bianliang students. Young people always like to do this kind of thing, fame, fame and fortune, that's it, especially if they are about to take the exam, if they don't make a name for themselves at this time, when will they wait?

Gan Qi actually felt that he was a little overwhelmed, and he had a feeling of not being confident, why was he not confident? Because Gan Qi knows that he hasn't been studying for a long time, what kind of character is Cheng Yi? Cheng Zhu Lixue, the founder of the character, is a cultural representative of several eras.

To compete like this, how can Gan Qi be confident?

But Gan Qi still couldn't refuse, so he could only bite the bullet. Because this is what Gan Qi has always wanted to do, Cheng Zhu Lixue is not completely without merit, but Cheng Zhu Lixue has a big problem, that is, in the cultural atmosphere, it tends to be more and more conservative.

As a doctrine, Cheng Zhu's theory is extremely excellent. The problem lies in the fact that Cheng Zhu Lixue cannot become the vane of various schools, nor can it become the main trend of all schools. Once this happens, the overall atmosphere of society will become more and more conservative, which is not conducive to the development of the country and the nation.

Gan Qi had to suppress Cheng Zhu Lixue, not to eliminate it, but to suppress Cheng Zhu Lixue into one of many schools, just one, and not to become the mainstream of society.

Therefore, Gan Qi said to his two students: "Senior, upright, you two will reply to a letter on my behalf, February 1st, Daojian Academy, waiting for all Luoyang students to come." ”

Li Ding and Cai did glance at each other, with both confidence in Gan Qi and worry about this matter in their hearts. But what Gan Qi commanded, it still had to be done seriously.

But I heard Gan Qi say again: "I have to write an article and publish it in the Times, so as to attract more people to visit Daojian College and testify together." ”

Gan Qi actually has a heart for hype, since he wants to compete, then completely stir up this matter, first, to really establish Gan Qi's own position in the literary world, and secondly, to hype up Daojian Academy to attract more people of insight.

Gan Qi was already thinking about something bigger, that is, the way of doctrine, the way of school. He Ganqi also wants to create a school, the central idea of this school, Ganqi has also thought about it, that is, pragmatism! In the mouth of a saint, speak the pragmatic way.

In fact, it also contains some ideas of Legalism, just like Gan Qi's "Theory of Strengthening the Country", Legalism is actually the most pragmatic way of governing the country, if Legalism and Confucianism are combined, it is the real modern social thought. Educate the people with morality and manage society with the legal system.

This is something that Gan Qi has been brewing for a long time, the truth is not clear, the doctrine is to be able to take it out, to compete with others, to become the mainstream, and even more to do it with others!
