"Your Majesty held a meeting of Shiqu Pavilion this time, and wanted to discuss state ......affairs with all the sons and hundreds of celebrities" As soon as he entered the door, Dong Zhongshu said openly: "Senior brother and elder, I have always been respected by Your Majesty, I don't know what plans or ideas I have?" ”

As he spoke, Dong Zhongshu raised his eyes and looked at Gongsun Hong, a disciple beside Hu Wusheng. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

On the side, Dong Zhongshu couldn't be sure.

But there is one thing that can be believed - Gongsun Hong must know some inside story that is difficult for outsiders to know.

After all, as the captain of the lord, he went in and out of the palace, and he had a close relationship with many Shangshu in Lantai, and even Shangshu Ling Jidi.

If it is a top-secret military matter, Gongsun Hong may still be hidden.

But this kind of secret that has actually been made public, Dong Zhongshu knows, and Gongsun Hong must know a thing or two.

And he lacks this key communication channel.

Hu Wusheng smiled and did not answer.

This kind of thing can't be talked about.

The guy who hates chewing his tongue the most nowadays!

Last year, a promising Shang Shulang in Lantai was sent to Huiji County to break down mountains and temples and fight against local witches because he boasted about the information he had in front of others.

"Senior brother, please come in......" Hu Wusheng smiled slightly and welcomed Dong Zhongshu into his study.

Immediately, a servant brought the finest tea from the south and brewed it for the main guests.

The steaming and fragrant fragrance of tea made Dong Zhongshu smell it, and he couldn't help but praise: "Senior brother is so elegant!" ”

Nowadays, in the circle of nobles and doctors in Chang'an, this way of making tea is very popular.

It is especially sought after by the nobles and scholars of the old school of Huang, and believes that this is the real gentleman Yaxing.

Even Confucianism is quite fond of this way of drinking tea.

But......

This kind of green tea transported from the south, especially the high-quality green tea, is now expensive, and it is not for idlers to use.

But Hu Wusheng is different.

His disciple Gongsun Hong, as the lord and the captain, was in charge of the world's industrial and commercial tax affairs, and was responsible for approving the property of the merchants.

The whole world, I don't know how many businessmen want to tie up with him.

Although Gongsun Hong has a good discussion in the market, his sleeves are breezy, and even three meals a day are also made by his fine gentlemen, more than one person has seen the wife of the lord and the lord of the city, and more than one person has seen the lord and the captain sew his own clothes.

Although, it may be a show.

However, at least Dong Zhongshu has never heard any rumors of Gongsun Hong abusing power for personal gain.

On the contrary, this tax collector of today, anyone dares to collect his taxes.

Legend has it that he even competed for the taxes of Cheng Zheng's relatives and Zhuo's relatives.

However, Gongsun Hong can have a clean breeze on his sleeves, which does not mean that there is no place for businessmen to give gifts and filial piety.

Gongzi doesn't collect money?

Never mind!

Gongsun Tzu has a teacher, and his teacher has a mountain gate in Linzi called Jixia Academy.

Put the nephew or something into the Jixia Academy, and donate it when you are old.

There's no way for this grandson to refuse, right?

After all, everyone's banner is 'respect for the bearded elders, and give wealth to help the beard educate the world'

Not to mention that Gongsun Hong has no way to refuse and stop it, even Hu Wusheng himself is helpless.

Because, when the world runs a school, there is no need to be in the past.

In the past, everyone used bamboo slips to learn.

Even if you are poor, as long as you have the perseverance, go to the mountains and cut some bamboo, do it yourself, string it with rope, and buy a carving knife, and you can start learning.

Now it's different.

Pen, ink, paper, inkstone, which one doesn't cost money?

And Hu Wusheng now has three thousand disciples and one hundred and eight sages.

Among them, the disciples of the poor sect account for more than seventy percent, and at least more than 1,000 people are pure poor, not to mention pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and they can't even get three meals a day!

What's more, so many people come together to learn.

Venues, accommodation and hygiene, as well as chores large and small, swallow millions of dollars every year.

This money can't fall from the sky, right?

Without the funding of the funders, no school of thought would be able to develop and grow, let alone compete for the right to speak.

Dong Zhongshu himself is running a school, and he knows the difficulties of running a school.

In order to better promote their own ideas and the ideas of the sages they inherited.

Nowadays, who is a well-known scholar in the world who does not bend his waist for five buckets of rice and pinch his nose to accept a lot, in fact, his qualifications are very average, but he is a rich businessman's child who has money in his family and is willing to contribute money as a student?

Therefore, not only Hu Wusheng, but also Dong Zhongshu, in fact, with a clear conscience and pinching his nose, accepted many businessmen's children as disciples, and at the same time accepted a large amount of sponsorship.

After all, the hundred schools of thought can hate merchants, but no one can hate merchants' money.

Didn't you see that even Huang Laoxue's giants, Huang Sheng's Qinghe Academy, began to appear the shadow of a businessman's son?

Even the old Huang faction, who has always been noble and does not like to mix with mundane affairs, is like this.

It is the other schools of thought that are rolling in the earthly world, and naturally no one is spared.

Therefore, Dong Zhongshu knew very well in his heart that his senior brother, who was 'cheap for cloth clothes, poor for a husband, righteous and righteous, and righteous and courteous' in the past, had actually been beaten by the sugar-coated cannonballs of businessmen and gave up many principles and bottom lines.

Because so is he!

Otherwise, how did the funds for Jixia Academy and Yingchuan Academy come from?

How did their senior brothers and hundreds of disciples live in a high-rise mansion in this Chang'an City, accompanied by chariots and horses, and co-ordinated in brocade clothes?

You can't just rely on the doctor's salary and Taixue's allowance and subsidy!

Thinking of this, Dong Zhongshu's heart was actually bitter.

If possible, he didn't want a merchant's money at all, and he didn't want to accept the children of merchants with uneven qualifications and different morals.

Originally, it was said that 'the gentleman is righteous, and the villain is profitable'.

As a result, in the face of reality, both gentlemen and villains are tending to profit.

Even today, although he doesn't talk about righteousness and profit, in fact, what he does, many times, is focused on interests.

If it is profitable, immediately abandon the set of words, do it immediately, and if you want to lose money, you will consider it again.

Dong Zhongshu even heard that the most thing that Lantai Shangshu does every day is to calculate the gains and losses and outputs of inputs.

A good country has gradually become a palace of interests.

But it looks righteous and awe-inspiring, as if it is extremely sacred.

This really made Dong Zhongshu a little incomprehensible!

Hu Wusheng also raised his eyes and looked at Dong Zhongshu, and both the brothers smiled awkwardly.

"Since the second year of Yuande, Your Majesty has implemented the doctorate grading system, and there have been nearly four ......hundred doctors in the world," Hu Wusheng picked up the teacup, smelled the aroma, and said slowly: "Among them, eight have become four hundred stones, six hundred stones and one thousand stones......

This thing doesn't sound like it has anything to do with the current Shiqu Pavilion meeting.

But Dong Zhongshu knows that, on the contrary, the relationship between the two is very close.

Through the doctoral officer grading system, Dang Jinzi has achieved one of his biggest goals - to break the monopoly of authority and academics!

In the past, Dr. Han was noble, respected, and admired by the world!

But what about now?

There is a joke in Chang'an: when you stand on the street and see a Confucian champion passing by, take a stone and throw it over, nine times out of ten, it must be a doctor.

The joke is exaggerated, but it's not unreasonable.

Today, by constantly expanding the ranks of doctors, the title of doctor is rotten, which directly leads to the collapse of the once recognized authority and symbol of the academic system - the doctorate system.

It further sparked disputes within the hundreds of schools of thought.

In the past, those small factions, elementary school factions, if they dared to chirp crookedly, a doctor like Dong Zhongshu or Hu Wusheng stood up, it was enough to make a final decision and shut them up!

But not anymore.

Among the schools of science and university in the world, which school does not have a doctor?

You're a doctor, and he's a doctor.

At most, you're at a higher level than him.

But if you want to preach or make him bow his head and give in, bow his head and bow down?

How can it be so simple!

It is precisely because of this that Gu Liang, Si Meng, and Chongmin were able to rise.

Before, this was not possible!

Gu Liang? Simeng? Heavy people? Count that green onion? Dare to paint a trip to the sages with me? Talking about the struggle for righteousness and profit?

How far the thought goes, how far get out of me!

But now, people can not only talk about the sages with Dong Zi and Hu Zi, and draw pictures of the world's major events, but also argue with reason, under the banner of the sages, and guide the country.

Some people have risen by spraying people and attacking other schools.

For example, the Xunzi School, such as this, has grown from a primary school that was not more than a hundred people at the beginning, and now it has been claimed to have 2,000 disciples, 36 virtuous people, and its influence has even overshadowed the Ram Sect in the Yanzhao region!

And the flood of doctors, at the moment when the Shiqu Pavilion meeting is about to be held, has immediately become the key.

Because, one thing is for sure—in the Shiqu Pavilion, non-doctors, do not want to occupy a place in it.

Even if it is a doctorate officer, if he does not have a relationship and a way or a big enough reputation, he will not be able to squeeze in.

It's something obvious.

The reason is simple, Shiqu Pavilion is a small place.

The main building is the Imperial Archives of the Han Dynasty and the entrance office of Taishi Ling.

These two places have always been forbidden places.

Especially the Taishi Lingmen Department, not to mention the hundred schools of thought, even the Son of Heaven, I'm afraid I won't be able to enter!

When I went in, I slapped the historian in the face.

will put yourself in the same awkward position as Zhao Dun - do you want to tamper with the history books? Or do you want to cover something up?

Although Ma Tan of today's Taishi Company looks gentle and elegant, everyone knows that once someone wants to break into the Taishi Lingmen Office, he will definitely die rather than give in.

Even if he is dead, his successor will definitely not hesitate to leave a note on the history of so-and-so.

Therefore, the place that can actually be used as a meeting place is the front hall of Shiqu Pavilion and the surrounding square.

It can probably accommodate up to 500 people at the same time.

And considering the security and the dignity of the Son of Heaven, the face of the Han family, in fact, it is already very good to be able to stuff 400 people.

And the Son of Heaven and his entourage, as well as hundreds of civil and military officials, and relatives of the princes, must occupy at least a hundred seats!

Of the three hundred seats left, Huang Lao and the Mo family will take up at least one hundred seats!

You don't have to think about it.

Huang Laoxue is a very respected knowledge of the two queen mothers of the East Palace, especially the empress dowager, she is said to have been inviting Huang Sheng and other Huang Laoxue giants to give lectures in the palace over the years.

As for the Mo family?

With the support of the Son of Heaven, you can basically ensure that you have enough seats.

Then the remaining seats are only 200 seats.

These two hundred seats, for the current hundred schools of thought in the world, can only be described as more monks and less porridge.

Not to mention, the two sects of Confucianism and Law now have a total of nearly 200,000 disciples.

There are hundreds of big people with names and surnames!

Confucianism alone alone cannot be satisfied with 200 seats.

Not to mention, now, Andong has a miscellaneous family rising, among Yan Zhao, there are descendants of the Zongheng family to start a mountain and establish a school, and among the martial arts, the thinking of the military family has gradually recovered, and there is already more than one general who has turned to the research direction of pure tactical theory.

For example, Gong Gao Hou Han Rongdang, Qu Zhou Hou Liji and Yu Hou Luanbu.

These big shots, the honors and exploits that should be fished in this life are almost gone.

The only hope they have now is to leave their writings and leave their mark on history.

In addition, the farmer is also a force to be reckoned with.

Don't look at the farmhouse now.

But in fact, their power and influence, along with the expansion of territory since Yuande and the promotion of new tools and new farming techniques, spread throughout the counties of the world.

In today's Han Dynasty, there may be no Confucianism in some places, there may not be Legalism in some places, and there may not even be traces of the Huang Lao School in some places.

However, there must be a farmer in the area!

And the farmer is a farmer's child!

These people, usually hidden in the huge bureaucratic system of the Han Dynasty, rely on the cover of Mohists, Legalists, Huang Lao, and even Confucianism, and silently do their own things.

Just like an honest farmer.

But who would dare to ignore their influence?

Not to mention, the current farmer Cheng Shangrong is a pure farmer heir who has been proven.

Compared with the farmer's house, even the Ram pie that is in full swing today is actually not enough to see.

Fortunately, the peasants have always had no quarrel with the world, and their purpose and ideology are only to promote more agricultural technology and produce more grain, so as to make the people rich and the country strong.

So, whoever comes to power, the farmer will cooperate with it.

And the farmers themselves don't really want to govern.

Their positioning is more to assist those in power to complete the promotion and popularization of relevant policies and technologies.

Not to mention the Huang Lao School and the Legalists, even when Confucianism came to power, the peasants could also be co-opted and cooperated.

However, except for the farmer, all other schools of thought are competitors and enemies!

Even some factions that are also Confucian.

For example, Gu Liang, the ram's sworn enemy!

There is also the Xunzi school that sprays people everywhere and declares itself that he is the orthodox descendant of Confucius, and the other factions are all Xunzi schools that distort Confucius's thoughts.

Dong Zhongshu just glanced at Hu Wusheng, and the two didn't even speak, and they had already reached a consensus - others can ignore it, the Guliang faction and the Xunzi faction must be taught a hard lesson!

Let them know who is the boss in this world and who they should listen to!

Let the world know that Gu Liang and Xunzi are sideways and can't learn! (To be continued.) )
