Chang'an East Palace, the palace gate slowly opened, the crown princess Shi led many concubines and grandchildren in this small palace, greeted out of the palace gate, walked to a palace car, and bowed their heads: "The concubine (son) welcomes the husband (father) back to the palace......"

Liu Ju slowly walked out of the palace car, looked at his concubines and children, and said, "Get up......

This time out of Beijing, the prince of the Han family stayed in Yuyi County for more than a month.

It wasn't until he saw rain falling from the sky and moistening the earth that he was relieved to turn back to Chang'an.

In Yuyi for more than a month, he personally sat in the Yuyi County Ya, commanded and dispatched, and constantly requisitioned materials from Bowangyuan, and finally reduced the impact of the drought on the people of Yuyi to a minimum.

However, his mood could not be better.

Thinking back to what he saw and heard in Yu Yi, the prince of the empire clenched his fists tightly.

As we all know, this prince was actually raised and educated by the late Changping Lie Hou Weiqing - after all, when today's son was in the prime of life, he was either in Feng Chan and seeking immortals, or walking on the road of Feng Chan and seeking immortals.

Father and son may see each other less than four or five times a year.

As a result, the relationship between father and son is far inferior to the relationship between Wei Qing and the Son of Heaven.

And this prince was naturally greatly influenced by his uncle Wei Qing.

The personality of the nephew is very similar.

They are all the same good gentlemen, and they are all the same pure gentlemen.

But now, there seems to be a volcano in the heart of this Han prince who is rolling in anger!

So much so that as soon as he got out of the car, he did not order to reward the accompanying ministers and guests as in the past, but coldly ordered: "All the ministers will be given a three-day ......vacation for more than a month of hard work, and then they will be surrounded by concubines, wives and children, and walked into the cold palace gate.

Looking at the vermilion palace gate, it slowly closed.

More than 100 princes, ministers, and guests looked at each other, unable to believe their eyes and ears.

This family, this prince, it seems that ...... Still hasn't deflated!

"Did Xiao Mao Gong reply?" In the crowd, Jiang Sheng was on crutches and asked the disciples on the left and right.

"Teacher Huiyu......" A young disciple stepped forward and bowed: "Mr. Mao replied three days ago, saying that he had ordered the disciple of Guan Gong to come to Chang'an!" ”

"Boy?" When Jiang Sheng heard this, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "But that Yannian son who is called 'can promote my poet, Yannian also'?" ”

The Mao School of Poetry is the youngest of the three major schools of the Han Dynasty "Book of Songs", but it is an emerging school with the most talents.

Since Mr. Mao Heng, the old man, taught and opened the mountain in the Hejian Gentleman's Pavilion, I don't know how many talents from all over the world have admired him.

The Mao school of poetry developed rapidly.

Especially in the hands of Xiao Mao Gong, he received the strong support of the late Liu De, the king of Hejian.

Ask for money for money, ask for people to give people, and ask for policies for policies.

When the Junzi Pavilion was at its peak, it was known as 1,800 disciples and 36 virtuous people.

Among them, the most well-known is Guan Changqing, a closed disciple of Xiao Mao Gong and now the de facto leader of the Mao poetry school.

Guan Changqingzhi's "Poems" is said to be extremely rigorous, and his family studies are extremely profound.

It is his father Guan Gao, who once ruled the "Spring and Autumn Zuo Biography", studied under the famous Jia Yi Jia Changsha, and worshiped the king as a doctor for Hejian, and his status is the same as that of Xiao Mao Gong.

and Chang, the son of Confucianism who was born with a golden key, worshiped his father's confidant and handed over to Mao Heng, specializing in Mao's poetry.

In the past twenty or thirty years, as Xiao Mao Gong grew old, this Guan Lang actually presided over the affairs of the Mao Poetry School and the Junzi Pavilion.

It was in his hands that the Mao poetry school did not fall behind in the slightest after losing such a big benefactor as King Hejian Xianwang.

In the past 20 years, countless elites have been educated.

There are even disciples who have reached 2,000 stones, worshipping as a party and shepherding the people of a county!

Therefore, the Confucian scholars of the Han family honored this Guan Changqing as 'Hejian Guan Weng' to show respect.

And this Guan Weng is rigorous in learning, has taught disciples for decades, and it is said that he has never smiled, no matter what the achievements of his disciples are, he has always been quiet.

Until five years ago, a young man from the country of Qi worshiped under this Guan Weng.

As soon as he entered the house, he was valued by this Guan Weng, and he was accepted as a closed disciple, regarded as the heir to the mantle, and even publicly praised and said: "Those who can prosper my poets are also prolonged sons!" ”

As a result, this prolonged son moved the world and was appointed as the spiritual leader of the next generation of the Mao poetry school.

Now, the apprentice grandson of Xiao Mao Gong, the leader of the next generation of the Mao Poetry School, actually broke the tradition of the Mao Poetry School for three consecutive generations of 'Bushi' and resolutely entered Chang'an.

What does he want to do?

Jiang Sheng clenched the few sticks in his hand, and his face was a little embarrassed.

I just wanted to find an ally to suppress Zhang Zizhong and the Ram School.

He had never thought of luring a wolf into the house!

Jiang Sheng knows very well that when it comes to academics, he is not top-notch.

Academically, there are several people who have achieved greater achievements than him and who are higher than him.

Even the disgraced doctor of the Guliang School back then, Di Shan, was much more accomplished in academics than him.

Not to mention the top scholars like Dong Zhongshu and Mao Chang, who single-handedly brought a school to the pinnacle of super Hongru!

Today, although Mr. Mao Chang is dying of old age, he is said to have lost his speech and can't even walk.

But......

If the prince has an edict, the imperial court will send an Anche Pulun, and the Son of Heaven will make an envoy to greet him, Jiang Sheng knows that even if he has to swallow his breath in the next second, this little Mao Gong will climb to Chang'an!

Back then, when the New Deal was established, Lu Shengong was more than ninety years old, and he didn't care about the fatigue of the journey and traveled thousands of miles to Chang'an.

Confucius traveled around the world, but he could not be used, which cast a huge shadow and fear in the hearts of all Confucian scholars.

Therefore, as the disciples and grandchildren of the master, none of the giants of various schools of thought who claim to be Confucian orthodoxy can resist the call of the Son of Heaven and the temptation and confusion of the auxiliary prince.

This is not only the mission of every Confucian student, but also the ideal of every Confucian student, to assist the king, rule the world, and educate the world!

As long as he is a Confucian student, he cannot refuse this call from his heart and the call from his soul!

"But I made a mistake...... Jiang Sheng was on crutches, facing north.

He originally thought that since the old Mao Gong Mr. Mao Heng, the Mao poetry school has been passed on for three generations to choose to concentrate on learning, ignoring mundane things, and probably have no ambitions for politics and governance.

Now it seems......

People's ambitions, big!

As soon as he made a move, he sent the next generation of his own heirs and the leaders of the next generation to Chang'an.

If the situation can be opened, can Guan Changqing and Mao Chang still sit in the river?

I'm afraid that the Gentleman's Pavilion will have to move to Bowang Garden!

If the Junzi Pavilion is moved to Bowang Garden, where will the Guliang Junzi live?

On the contrary, the other party was invited by himself.

"Shoot yourself in the foot?" Jiang Sheng thought in his heart, and in an instant, he shook his head.

He looked in the direction of Xinfeng, and that Zhang Zizhong was not easy to deal with.

Although this Xie Yannian said it very powerfully......

But I'm afraid I can't beat each other!

If so......

"Two tigers are fighting, I may be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman!" A smile overflowed at the corner of Jiang Sheng's mouth.

The next generation of descendants of the Mao Poetry School will inevitably come here with some of the heritage and reliance of the Mao Poetry School when they enter Beijing.

If this is the case, maybe you can get a glimpse of the power of this branch of Confucianism that has been hidden in Zhao for decades.

……………………………………

Kasaka Fortress is still unknown today, but it is a fortress that is highly valued in the Han Dynasty.

Gai because, since the eastward migration of Hangu, Guanzhong has lost the strongest eastern barrier.

In order to make up for it, since the Yuan Dynasty, the Han dynasty rebuilt a new Taolin Fortress on the basis of the old Jin State Taolinsai in the northeast of Huayin, so as to guard the traffic throat between Guanzhong and Luoyang and defend Chang'an.

In order to defend Taolinsai, this Pubansai was built on the north bank of the Great River to cover and support the security of Taolinsai's flank, and at the same time prevent the enemy from attacking Guanzhong from the south bank of the Yellow River.

This fortress system will continue to improve and develop in the next two or three hundred years, and finally replace the original Hangu Pass after eight or nine hundred years, and become the core of the Tang Empire's Guanzhong defense - Tongguan Fortress System.

But at this time, because the integrity of the Han Empire was in full swing, it was impossible for enemies from within the country to threaten the safety of Chang'an.

So whether it's Taolinsai or Kasakasai, it's still very simple.

In particular, Pusaka Sai was stationed only as a county soldier of Sima and existed as a security force.

However, in the middle of the turbulent Yellow River, there are several building boats that will patrol from time to time.

These are the building ships controlled by Dasi Nong, and their main responsibility is to intercept the cargo ships and merchant ships coming and going, and check whether the other party has paid the vehicle and vessel tax.

If you have not paid your taxes...... The goods on the ship, Da Si Nong was not sensitive.

If the owner is unlucky, he may even be called for tea by Dasinon.

Although the policy of refuge has been de facto terminated, the decree of refuge has not yet been abolished.

Bumped into the hands of Dasi Nong, and was caught with a real hammer, if there is no relationship with the background, plus a little bit of luck, the owner will give Dasi Nong a big day job.

Therefore, in the river area before the Pujin crossing, the merchant ships and passenger ships have basically paid the vehicle and vessel tax.

To be reasonable, the Han family's vehicle and vessel tax is actually not high.

For large ships of more than five zhang, only one is levied, that is, one hundred and twenty yuan.

In this way, there are many people who don't want to pay and don't want to pay.

Just like now, looking at the huge building ship in front of him, a merchant of a cargo ship sailing on this river scolded: "These tax collectors! ”

While scolding, he had to take out a few official documents from Da Si Nong.

Be prepared for those possible inspections.

There was no way, the world's businessman Jia Haoqiang who was killed back then was terrified.

At present, few people dare to risk the risk of exile to evade taxes.

In particular, large cargo ships and merchant ships can only grit their teeth and pay taxes.

"Competing with the people for profit, in the long run, can national security be peaceful?" A young Confucian student, standing on the deck of the bow of the ship, watched all this and sighed bitterly.

In that year, Mencius saw King Hui of Wei, and King Hui asked straight to the point: "Will there be Eli my kingdom?" ”

Mencius replied, "Why should the king be profitable, there is benevolence and righteousness!" ”

This is the first time that Confucian scholars have introduced the value of benevolence and righteousness into the concept of righteousness and benefit.

But what really awakened the Confucian scholars was a theory put forward by Dong Zhongshu more than 20 years ago.

At that time, Dong Zhongshu clearly put forward the idea of 'having received the big, not taking the small', and invented a word 'competing with the people for profit'.

As soon as this word was invented, it immediately swept the world and was widely accepted and quoted by all schools of Confucianism.

Then, quietly mixed with their own private goods, it will become their own theory.

Even if it is Dong Zhongshu, he is helpless for such behavior.

Zhuzi has copied a large number of schools, and it is really more serious, and in his treatises by Dong Zhongshu, he also copied many people's things.

Not only Confucianism, but he also copied things from the Legalists, the Yin-Yang School, the Zongheng School, and the Huang Lao School.

Since ancient times, it has been a tradition for literati to quote other people's theories and words, add something, and become their own.

As soon as Dong Zhongshu died, the theory of 'competing with the people' lost its explanation, so the Tianxia school was even more unscrupulous to stuff things into this conclusion.

completely threw aside Dong Zhongshu's spirit of argumentation, ignoring Dong Zhongshu's emphasis on the 'home of food' and not competing with the people for profit.

Don't run a private industry, be a good servant of the people and serve the country and the people.

So much so that now, many Confucian scholars in the south simply link the theory of 'competing with the people' with the national court.

thinks that the imperial court collects commercial taxes, which is to compete with the people for profit!

The collection of fish and salt taxes by the building ships is to compete with the people for profit.

As for the salt and iron yamen, it is simply an evil existence that is poured into the bamboo of the South Mountain, and it is difficult to wash away the water of the East China Sea!

In the north, this argument is slightly milder (mainly because of the existence of the Ram School and the Legalist forces), but it is not necessarily gentler than in the Qilu region.

At this moment, this young Confucian student, with eyes full of hatred, looked at the tax ship that was rampant on the Yellow River.

As the son of a landlord from the Qi Kingdom, the image of a tax collector in his eyes has long been stinky.

At the local grassroots level in the southern counties, those officials are like wolves and tigers, ripping out the bones and sucking the marrow and squeezing the common people and even the middle-class landlords.

As a result, there are countless displaced people in the local area, and the order is chaotic.

When he was a teenager, his biological father was almost killed by the cane for resisting taxes, which made him hate the tax collector very much.

When he worshipped his teacher, read poetry and books, understood the way of the ancestors, and learned the teachings of the sages, he was determined to 'clarify the unai, go up to the monarch's father, and go down to An Lishu, and use Qi Qizheng to follow the Zhou Gong's line, and establish the religion of the people'.

Let this world reproduce the sound of governance!

"I have heard that the Han has an eldest grandson, has magnificent ambitions, and wants to carry forward the unique learning of the past saints and open a peaceful ...... for all generations" The young man looked at the rolling Yellow River and thought in his heart: "This time I will go to Chang'an, I will be a virtuous grandson, and I will be a great plan!" ”

As for the legendary opponents?

In his opinion, all of them are war scum!

Who is he?

He was the most outstanding disciple ever in the Gentleman's Pavilion! Thousands of disciples and disciples of the entire Mao Poetry School, including his teacher Guan Weng, all praised each other, thinking that Mao Shi could be a talent in his own hands in the future!

At the age of twenty-five, he was already accepted as a closed disciple by his teacher and cultivated as a successor to the mantle!

And his opponent, it is said that the strongest guy named Zhang Zizhong is just an outcast of Mao Shi, a stubborn person who cannot be cultivated!
