The willow branches on both sides of the Wei River have pulled out new shoots, and they are as green as jade. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

At the foot of the distant mountains, the rolling figure once again haunts the bamboo forest.

Spring warms the earth, and everything recovers.

In February, the people of Guanzhong once again got a good news: the chariot general Yi Zong led the army in the first month of the sixth year of the Han Yuande (28th), and waved his army into the Qin Dynasty's hometown of Yulinsai, which was abandoned by the Xiongnu.

At this point, since the second year of Qin II, the entire defense line of the Great Wall of Qin, which was forced to abandon because of the strict orders of the Qin court, was again controlled by China.

Yin Mountain has once again become a strong place to shelter the Zhuxia civilization.

Since then, Chang'an and Guanzhong have been completely safe.

The threat of the Hun cavalry was theoretically eliminated - unless they could fly, it would be impossible to cross the Xiongguan Mountains and threaten the very foundation of the Han Dynasty.

Of course, this matter, in fact, the impact is the same thing.

The people of Guanzhong now have an appetite.

The king set out on the expedition, and the victory was deserved.

The number of beheadings and captures of the enemy was less than 10,000, and they were not in the mood to celebrate.

Probably, one day when the Han army captures the members of the Xiongnu royal family, they will have the same carnival as after the victory of the Battle of Gaoque in winter.

Moreover, today's people of Chang'an are more concerned about an upcoming event - the meeting of Shiqu Pavilion!

At that time, hundreds of schools, celebrities in the world, the conference Shiqu Pavilion.

A famous person, a giant of all children, will be present.

The Son of Heaven has ordered that two huge Huabiao trees be re-erected under the north gate of Weiyang Palace.

Its base is made of marble, and the main trunk is a towering tree brought to Chang'an from Anton.

On the giant tree, dragons and phoenixes and various myths and legends are carved.

One stands in the north of the city tower, the door of the palace.

One stands outside the North Gate Tower, at the door of the bus office.

On the front of the pedestal of Huabiao, which stands in the middle of the castle tower, facing the direction of the Xuanmur Hall, is engraved with a famous saying from the time of Zong Zhou: The mouth of the people is more important than the mouth of the river.

On the back of it, it is engraved with the famous words of Lu Aigong recorded by Xunzi: The widow was born in the deep palace, grew up in the hands of a woman, and the widow did not know the sorrow, did not know the labor, and did not know the fear.

There is no doubt that these two sentences are used to remind oneself today.

And on the pedestal of the front of the castle tower, facing the direction of the imperial road, there is a famous saying from the Warring States period: The promise of a thousand people is not as good as the promise of a scholar.

On the back of it, on the side facing the palace, there is another sentence inscribed, Qu Zi's famous words: The road is long, and I will go up and down to seek.

Obviously, this is for the hundreds of giants who are about to attend the meeting.

This is to tell them not to be afraid to speak, and not to be afraid to speak.

At the same time, we should insist on the truth and move forward.

However, these things, for the general public, are just like that.

Even many people do not know the meaning of this matter at all-only those nobles, scholars, and ministers of foreign relatives think about the meaning and what is revealed.

The general public, apparently more concerned, is the enormity of this magnum wood and the magnificence of the decoration.

Of course, for the appearance of Huabiaomu, the gossip party said: Warm welcome.

Because, in Chinese culture, this Huabiao wood symbolizes the way of speech and the freedom to speak.

Emperor Taizong once issued an edict that said: The ancient rule of the world, the dynasty has the power of goodness, and the wood of slander, so those who come to admonish the way of governance.

This slanderous wood is another name for Huabiao.

It is a symbolic wooden building that has been popular among the Zhuxia people since the Yaoshun period.

It is a signpost for guiding the way and a building for guiding the way, and it is also a tool used by the ruler to collect suggestions and opinions from the people, and it is the most primitive and oldest 'emperor's hotline' and 'emperor's mailbox'.

It is also the most important way for the Chinese ancestors to communicate with their ancestors.

Of course, by now, these features have been stripped away.

What remains of Huabiaomu is a symbolic meaning.

is telling the people of the world, especially the nobles and scholars of the world: the Son of Heaven is not ****, and he will not dominate the world with one person.

Instead, he is willing to discuss with the big guys and exchange opinions together, and work together to make the foundation of the Han Empire bigger, stronger and better.

However, in the eyes of the gossip party, this is the Son of Heaven encouraging them to speak the truth bravely.

As a result, they were immediately given a booster shot.

Although the privacy of the palace and the secret things of the Liu family are still hidden, some black words are passed on privately in the circle.

However, the secrets of the three princes and the nine kings and the bad things in the families of the relatives of the princes are embarrassing.

Novelists were given a lot of material at once, and then they were inspired to write many masterpieces.

For example, someone wrote a stallion ******** called "Xijing Story", blackened a certain big man, pulled off his underwear, and made everyone in the world happy.

And this novelist has made a lot of money.

Even by publishing and printing, his income that year was more than his feudal tax tax!

And the big man who was hacked couldn't help it, so he could only force a smile.

As for the other class in Chang'an, the middle class and wealthy merchants, they all stretched their necks, waiting for the world's famous figures and university lords to enter Beijing.

Many of these people are preparing to choose a school for their children and nephews to go to school.

Then, whoever is more prominent and performs more brilliantly at this Guavaqu Pavilion meeting will undoubtedly directly become the most important reference for them to choose a school for their children and nephews to study in the future.

Not only them, at this moment, the eyes of the whole world are focused on Chang'an.

All the sons and factions of the hundred schools, as long as they can perform well at the Shiqu Pavilion meeting, they will get excellent results.

Then, in the future, there will definitely be no worries about the source of life, and there will be no worries about the sponsorship of the funders.

If it performs well, perhaps a former elementary school school will immediately transform into a university school that influences public opinion and thought in the world.

You can even open branches in major cities!

Therefore, there are hundreds of schools of thought, and almost no one does not pay attention to this meeting of Shiqu Pavilion.

The various university schools are basically elites.

……………………

In Ruoyang City, Yang Hui, the giant of the Chongmin School and the current head of the Luoyang Academy, is now, outside the city of Luoyang City, with his disciples and disciples, and farewell to his father and fellow villagers.

The Chongmin school is a very, very, very young school.

It originated as a small private study and mutual aid organization in the first year of Yuande.

At that time, several young scholars, after returning to their hometowns after falling off the list, privately used the theories of the Simeng School to add some brains to themselves, and then played the signboard of valuing the people.

Subsequently, the local big businessmen, big landlords and Haoqiang in Luoyang suddenly discovered this school.

Then, I used it as a lifesaver.

Holding high the banner of valuing the people and the people, in fact, desperately stuffing private goods into it.

At the same time, a large number of celebrities from the past Guliang School, Simeng School and Xunzi School, including Yang Hui, joined one after another.

Up to now, today's Chongmin School is actually completely different from the beginning.

Of course, because Zhidu used to sit here, this school has also been influenced by a lot from the upper echelons, especially Weiyang Palace.

This is manifested in their behavior, on the one hand, they vigorously advocate that 'the first thing to do in order to control chaos in the world is to value the people, and the people are self-consistent and the society is safe'.

He advocated that the state should not control the grassroots too much, and that the affairs of the grassroots should be handed over to the village sages who are 'virtuous and can lead the people to do good'.

Even the radicals demanded that the rulers guarantee the security of the people's rights and property.

Trying to make a big Han version of 'the wind can enter, the rain can enter, and the county road (referring to the emperor's authority) cannot enter'.

It seems that the school of the people has been dominated by large landowners, big businessmen, and big families.

But in reality, there is another side to this school of thought.

The whole of Confucianism is very advanced and progressive.

Because they are a new young school born out of the Simeng school.

Therefore, in the process of fighting with the Simeng School, they traced their origins upwards and found their own Taoist basis.

The seventieth disciple of Confucius, in Confucianism, Shi Shuo, who plays a vital role in connecting the past and the next, is their ancestor.

And Shishuo is a pioneer and enterprising person like Mr. Zixia in Confucius.

Maybe the people of later generations don't know much about this seventy-two sages of Confucius.

But archaeology proves that he is the bridge between the ideas of Confucius and Mencius.

Shi Shuo inherited Confucius's attainments in mathematics, and he introduced arithmetic into Confucianism.

His book "Five Elements" is a peak of the Confucian school of classics.

In addition to the theory of the five elements (gold, wood, water, fire, earth), he proposed the five elements of humanity (benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and sage).

The Chongmin School used the "Five Elements" as the basis to open their way of interpreting and interpreting Confucianism.

So this school of thought attaches great importance to mathematics.

Almost everyone has a copy of "I Ching" and "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic".

At the same time, because of the influence of the Simeng school's idea of 'the people are precious', they advocated and demanded that the landlords treat the tenant farmers well and the workshop owners treat the hired workers well.

On the other hand, as an emerging school, the Chongmin school has a positive attitude towards all new things and new practices.

They advocated: Tangwu Revolution should follow the heavens and respond to the people, and the time of the revolution is great!

For the rule of three generations that other Confucian schools in the past have never forgotten, Cheng Zhou etiquette, sneered.

They made it clear that 'time shifts and the world changes'.

Using 'three generations of different laws, the five emperors do not return to each other' as an excuse, advocating that the generations should be reformed, and the old should be replaced and the new should be welcomed.

In the new era, new etiquette, new systems, and new laws should be used.

He even threatened that 'three years after the establishment of the law, it should be restored, if there is one, it will be changed, and if there is none, it will be encouraged'.

Three years after the law is enacted, it needs to be reviewed once.

If there is a mistake, it should be corrected in time, and even if the problem is not visible for the time being, it should be carefully considered.

Naturally, this school of thought became an outlier within Confucianism.

A product that is even stranger and more peculiar than the Simon School.

If it weren't for Liu Che being in power now, they would have been dragged to the vegetable market and cut into pieces.

At this moment, outside this Luoyang City, facing the fathers and villagers of Luoyang, Yang Hui puffed up his chest and arched his hand and said: "In the past, Jing Ke left Yan, and composed a song saying: The wind is Xiao Xiao Jin is easy to be cold, and the strong man is gone and will not return!" ”

"Today, we are waiting for the children of the people, and we also have the heart to die!" Yang Hui bowed and said: "If it is useless, I will wait for the shameless to see my father again!" ”

For the nascent Chongmin School, they are indeed too immature now.

They are fledgling, and even the ideological and logical systems have not been fully established, and they have not even built other theories and systems that belong to them, except for the slogan of valuing the people and the noble people.

In particular, it does not depict an ideal country that belongs only to them.

This trip to Chang'an, it is indeed a long road and many obstacles, if you are not careful, you will be pressed to the ground by others and rubbed hard.

Even, the backbone was broken!

But, no, no.

First, this is the conscription of the Son of Heaven, and if you don't go, you will resist the edict, although it is a good thing for the reader to resist the edict, and you can add points.

But that's usual, and in a situation like this, if you don't go, you'll be ridiculed for being weak-hearted.

Second, the Chongmin School must go through the tempering of Shiqu Pavilion before they can hope to go further and find their own way.

If you don't go, you may be safe, but you don't want to make a big difference in your life, let alone walk out of Luoyang and go to the whole world.

Therefore, this time, the Chongmin School dispatched almost all the elders and teachers, but did not bring a single young child and outstanding juniors.

Yang Hui and the others' calculation was that even if Shiqu Pavilion failed fiasco this time, they would be the ones who lost.

Their juniors and descendants can learn the lessons of their failures.

It can also avoid being caught in the net, leaving seeds and hope.

The 'fathers and elders', mainly the big merchants, big landlords and nobles in Luoyang City, also knew that their hometown scholars were afraid of many disasters and difficulties in this trip, and they all replied: "You don't have to worry about waiting here!" Our fathers and elders will beat drums and cheer for you! ”

There were also many ordinary people who had been blessed by the Heavy People's School, gathering in the crowd and shouting: "Children of Luoyang, mighty! Children of Luoyang, never admit defeat! ”

Yang Hui and the others were also very moved, and they all looked back and bowed: "Princess, please rest assured, I will wait here, I would rather die than lose the face of my Luoyang people!" ”

For the people of Luoyang, they are proud.

They are the people of the ancient capital of Cheng Zhou, the people of the eastern capital of the Han family, and the people of the eastern capital directly under the governance of the Son of Heaven.

I think back then, if it weren't for Liu Jing's villain, now, the Han family Shenjing is the hillbilly who can't be in Xijing Chang'an this turn to show off his might.

Therefore, the character of the people of Luoyang is somewhat similar to the people of the Demon Capital in later generations.

They are wealthy, they are confident, they have great self-esteem.

For the people of Luoyang, in addition to Luoyang, the entire map of the Han Dynasty can probably be described in two sentences: a wild place, a rude person.

However, for a long time, Luoyang was just a commercial center.

And not a political-military and cultural center.

After decades of Hanxing, it was not easy to come up with a school of heavy people, and naturally, everyone held it in the palm of their hands and regarded him as their pride and future.

This meeting of Shiqu Pavilion is a process for them to prove themselves! (To be continued.) )
