Looking at the people around him who were yelling angrily just now, most of them were the same as Zhang Zhao, wearing the straight-lined robes unique to Tai students, Fu Quan shook his head secretly, and said in his heart, Who said that the ancients did not have a second youth? When it comes to their own future interests, who can stay out of it?

Fuquan said loudly: "Your Majesty's words are out of character, Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhongzhi and others bewitched Shengcong, and the monarchs should make statements to persuade the sacred heart, if they insist on discussing in private, they will be known by the eunuch temple, and it will be the way to take trouble." ”

Everyone nodded, not knowing whether it was an answer or something else. As for the eunuchs who got in the way, Liu Hong himself is to blame, he forcibly promoted the eunuchs to make up for the vacancy left by Yuan Yu's death, which was too brainless, too shameless, and too disregarded for the face of the ministers.

Since the death of Yuan Yu, the ministers of the court and the central government are all happy except for the Yuan family, after all, from then on, all the eunuchs left by Emperor Huan are not in the court, without the oppression of these eunuchs, only Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and the eunuchs promoted by Liu Hong after his accession to the throne are too shallow and weak, and they are obviously unable to confront the foreign courts.

It's just that these hundred officials and ministers are obviously happy too early, and the emperor will definitely not watch China and North Korea lose power, and foreign dynasties dominate the court, Liu Hong in order to quickly strengthen the power of Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and other eunuchs, actually shouted out the sentence that later generations kept pouring dirty water on him.

"Zhang Changshou is my father, and Zhao Changshou is my mother!"

At that time, at the court meeting, Liu Hong said this in front of the ministers, but the ministers were shocked for a long time and couldn't speak, and then the court ministers wrote to Liu Hong cautiously, so he almost kidnapped the emperor and stepped forward to plug his mouth. But Liu Hong was still unmoved, and then rewarded the eunuchs for no reason, and then ignored the courtiers' advice and went down to the court, leaving everyone looking at each other and not knowing what to do.

Although Liu Hong originally wanted to quickly make up for the eunuch power after Yuan Yu's death, after all, Yuan Yu died, which is equivalent to breaking the connection between the Yuan family and the inner dynasty, and the inner dynasty will also lose the support of the Yuan family. Obviously not, that's why Liu Hong came out.

However, it is obvious that this set is too much, so that the scholars vent all their dissatisfaction with the emperor on the eunuchs, after all, if they really want to name and scold the emperor, maybe their lives are worry-free, but that person's career is basically over. Most of the scholars learn knowledge for the sake of being officials, and if they can't be officials, why bother to go against the emperor?

Therefore, with the establishment of Hongdu Gate School, Liu Hong is not the most blamed, and the eunuchs are the focus of accusation. The so-called Hongdu Gate Study, in Fuquan's view, is an ancient junior college, a higher education institution specializing in poetry, calligraphy and painting.

Hongdu Gate is in the west of Luoyang City, which is the gate of the "West Residence" of the Han Emperor's Imperial Palace, so in the Eastern Han Dynasty, "West Mansion" and "Hongdu Gate" have the same meaning and can be used universally. Unlike Taixue, a traditional higher education institution in the Han Dynasty, Hongdu Gate School did not teach philosophy and etiquette, but specialized in the study of ci, fu, calligraphy, and painting, so it was known as the earliest literary and artistic university in China. Hongdumen students are recommended by the three princes or local high-ranking officials, most of them are poor civilian children, because Hongdumen students are not well-off, so this school costs more money than Taixue, and since Liu Hong established the West Mansion, this money is from him himself, it can be said that the money of the West Mansion was either seen by him this year, or spent on building a school.

Of course, the welfare of students who enter Hongdu Gate School is also very good, because as long as they are proficient in any of the words, fu, calligraphy, and painting, they can be reused.

I don't look at the evaluation of later history books, but in this way, the establishment of Hongdu Gate School was a major event in the Eastern Han Dynasty. In the Han Dynasty, which had "respected Confucianism alone" since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it fundamentally changed the old concept of Confucian classics as the only teaching and research content, advocated the study of literature and art, and opened up a new chapter in the history of Chinese education. Different from Taixue, which mainly recruited the children of officials and eunuchs, Hongdu Menxue broke the monopoly of the aristocracy and landlord class on higher education, and widely recruited the children of the common people, laying the cornerstone for the imperial examination and the establishment of junior colleges in later generations.

Moreover, Liu Hong's establishment of Hongdu Menxue has a strong realpolitik purpose, after all, his power comes from the party movement, constantly suppressing the party members and seizing power from them, so he is always unwilling to give up the imprisonment of the party members. But in this way, he completely offended the Taixue teachers and students, who were mainly scholars.

As time passed, Liu Hong and the eunuch clique found themselves in a difficult situation, and the new generation of officials selected from Taixue was not satisfactory in terms of work ability and political loyalty, after all, they were dissatisfied with Liu Hong from the beginning. Therefore, they urgently need to create a new university in order to replace the political role of the old Taixue. And in order to ensure the political loyalty of graduates to the emperor, the educational policy of the new universities had to be significantly different from that of the old Taixue. Due to Liu Hong's personal preferences and administrative needs, literature and art became the main teaching and research content of this new university.

From this point of view, Liu Hong's original intention of setting up Hongdu Gate School has not changed the Eastern Han Dynasty politics that has fallen into ossification, and things are essentially good, but why are the ministers and officials from the old intellectuals, and the students of Taixue, so opposed to Hongdu Gate School?

After all, in the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was no one else who studied more scriptures, but it was the people of the big families who monopolized most of the official positions. Regardless of the influence of background and family background, they studied earlier than others in the scriptures, and studied more, comparatively speaking, in the knowledge examination school, they can enter the court as officials, coupled with the rich political network resources mastered by the family, various ways to become officials, this can absolutely overwhelm the others.

Although the Han Dynasty private learning flourished, even the poor students were able to receive a certain amount of education, but compared with the family family, the people of the non-family family, most of them are undoubtedly much worse than the people of the family, unless they are geniuses and do not have a certain amount of luck, otherwise in this era when their origin is better than everything, it is difficult to compete with the people of the family, and the people of the world family have always had an advantage in the number and official positions in the court.

Now that Liu Hong is good, he will directly and forcefully change the career channels that were firmly controlled by the original family, can he not let the officials and ministers jump to resist angrily? Moreover, the Taixue students who were not born in the big families also resisted, because the establishment of the Hongdu Gate School squeezed their already small way to become officials.

It is precisely these two reasons that caused Liu Hong's original intention to change the rigid rule of officials in the Eastern Han Dynasty and change the selection method of officials controlled by the clans, but it backfired.

Shengcong: In the old days, it was called the emperor's clear observation, from "Hanshu Gu Yongchuan": "The minister was fortunate to have the effect of the article on the disaster, and the disaster was extreme, and the words were about Shengcong." ”

Sacred Heart: The Emperor's Heart, from "Three Kingdoms, Wei Zhi, Yang Fu Biography": "However, today's villain, it is good to say that the Qin and Han dynasties are extravagant, and the sacred heart is soup." ”

At this point, these two words are already available
