Chapter 68: The Establishment of the Academy
When Zhang Zai was worrying about how to get the books, Wang Meng walked in with a good piece of rice paper, saw Zhang Zai, and said, "Lord, Meng has something to ask for." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"What's the matter, sir?" Although the title has been decided, Zhang Zai's respect for Wang Meng has not diminished in the slightest.
Wang Meng handed the rice paper in his hand to Zhang Zai and said, "This is the song that Meng is preparing to send to Chang'an, and I invite the lord to take a look." ”
"Sent to Chang'an?" Zhang Zai frowned slightly, now the emperor is controlled by Dong Zhuo, this is a well-known fact in the world, there seems to be no difference between this performance and not hair, he doesn't think that Dong Zhuo will give him any substantial reward.
"The lord is now a state pastor, and he has no title yet, and with this performance, he can also get a knighthood, and there are even unexpected surprises." Wang Meng explained.
"An unexpected surprise?" Zhang Zai thought for a moment and then asked, "You mean...... Li Ru? ”
"That's right, Li Wenyou, the chief strategist next to Dong Zhuo, is close to the checkpoints around Chang'an, the lord can fight well, and his command is like a cloud, so he will definitely appease the lord, and this title is just an edict for him." Wang Meng said.
"I'll leave this matter to the gentleman." Zhang Zai agreed with Wang Meng's proposition.
Wang Meng received the order and exited Zhang Zai's study, but when Wang Meng walked out of the door, Zhang Zai suddenly stopped him again and said, "Please wait a moment, sir." ”
"I wonder what else the lord commands?" Although Wang Meng didn't know why Zhang Zai suddenly stopped him again, he still returned and asked.
Zhang Zai smiled apologetically and said, "Sir should know that the academy is being built, right?" ”
"I know a little bit about it." Wang Meng replied.
This academy was personally approved by Zhang Zai over the state pastor's mansion, but all the materials were allocated from the state pastor's mansion, and he still heard about it a little.
"Sir should know that if the academy wants to be established, this collection of books is indispensable, but there is no collection of books in the house at present, so I thought, this Dongguan collection of books was all transported by Dong Zhuo, why don't we take this opportunity to get this collection of books back, how about it?" Zhang Zai said.
Wang Meng thought for a while and said: "Then Meng will write out the matter of collecting books, and in addition, can the lord repair a book and give it to Li Ru?" If you want to do this well, you have to rely on his help. ”
"Sir, wait a minute." Zhang Zai immediately repaired a book, and thanks to his hard practice of calligraphy, otherwise, he would not have been able to write a complete letter with a brush.
After a quarter of an hour, Zhang Zaina wrote the letter, roughly read it, the letter put aside their respective positions, mostly praise and praise, and at the same time put forward his purpose of asking for the collection of books, hoping that at the same time, he was born in a poor family, can consider the children of the world's poor families, if this matter is successful, his name will be forever engraved on the wall of the academy, passed down through the ages.
After the ink dried, Zhang Zai handed over the letter to Wang Meng and asked him to send it to Chang'an together, and at the same time selected a few Analects and ordered someone to take them to Li Ru.
Three days later, Li Ru, who was in Chang'an, received a good news from Zhang Zai, along with Zhang Zai's letters, and several printed Analects.
Li Ru read the good news, re-subdued the Xiongnu, and incorporated into the Han nationality, if the Xiongnu were assimilated from then on, it would be a great achievement, even in the period of Emperor Wu, it was enough to be a marquis.
Besides, the title is the most worthless thing in Dong Zhuo's place, even the children in Dong Zhuo's family for a few months have a knighthood, and it is not a big deal to seal one to Zhang Zai.
As for Zhang Zai's private letter, when he first saw his handwriting, Li Ru was a little unimpressed, and wanted to change the situation of the world's family ruling education, but even Dong Zhuo, who was as powerful as the sky, did not do it, how could he, a small state pastor, do it.
But when he saw the Analects in his hand, he was completely dumbfounded, and he spread out the Analects in his hand one by one, and the handwriting in the books was exactly the same, even with some minor defects.
By now, he has fully believed what Zhang Zaixin said, and if he is given enough time, he can really break the monopoly of education in the family.
Li Ru looked at the few books in front of him that seemed to be magical, and the hidden passion in his heart was completely stimulated by Zhang Zai.
is as smart as him, how could he not think of the risks behind this, but since Zhang Zai wants to fight against the world family with his own strength, then as a son of a poor family, of course he has to do his best to help Zhang Zai, this has nothing to do with politics, it is about the position, and it is about the countless children of the poor family in the world who are like him, suffering from poor backgrounds, and have no ambition in their lives.
However, in order to obtain the collection of books in the Eastern View, two people need to agree.
Li Ru took the good news in his hand, hid a few books of Analects in the cuffs on both sides, calmed down, and walked out of the mansion firmly.
Dong Zhuo's house.
"Li Ru meets the lord!" Li Ru looked at Dong Zhuo now, and sighed slightly in his heart.
After entering Chang'an, Dong Zhuofa was extravagant, and his body was almost fat into a ball.
"It's Wenyou, come, sit down and drink with our family." Dong Zhuo looked at Li Rudao.
"My lord, Confucianism is here to report something important." Li Ru did not listen to Dong Zhuo's words and sat in the banquet.
"What's the matter? Isn't it up to you to make your own decisions? Dong Zhuo waved his greasy hands.
"It's about Zhang Zai in the state." Li Ru said.
"What! That Zhang Zai came to attack Chang'an? Dong Zhuo was shocked when he heard this, and he didn't care about drinking, so he stood up in a panic, knocked down the table in front of him, spilled the wine, and filled the whole room with the smell of alcohol.
"This ......" Li Ru didn't expect Dong Zhuo to react so much when he heard Zhang Zai's name, and hurriedly said: "Lord, Zhang Zai didn't want to attack Chang'an. ”
"Whew...... Wen You didn't make it clear, it really scared our family to death. Hearing that Zhang Zai did not attack Chang'an, Dong Zhuo was also relieved, collapsed to the ground all of a sudden, and then asked, "What is Zhang Zai's movement?" ”
Li Ru handed the good news to Dong Zhuo and said: "Zhang Zai subdued the Xiongnu and incorporated them into the Han nationality, which is the good news he offered. ”
Dong Zhuo didn't receive the good news, and said: "Wen You looks at this matter and deals with it, just promote an official at will." ”
Li Ru said: "But this one wants to look at the Dongguan collection." ”
"What Dongguan collection?" Dong Zhuo asked.
"It's the collection of books in Nangong Middle East View." Li Ru explained.
"Oh, it's just some useless, dead bamboo slips, if he wants it, just give it to him." Dong Zhuoman didn't care about the Tao, he was originally a military general, and he couldn't look down on those books.
Li Ru naturally didn't say the importance of these books, and said softly: "Then Confucianism will go down and prepare." ”
Dong Zhuo was disturbed by him, and waved his hand casually to signal him to retreat.
Li Ru walked out of the house and tightened the book hidden in the cuffs, Dong Zhuo had already loosened his mouth, and the next thing was to see if he could convince another person.
