It should be made clear that the ancient literature school and the modern literature school in the Eastern Han Dynasty were not two political groups with a clear distinction between the well and the river water, but a large and generalized concept.

There is a clear conflict of interest between the two sides, but the conflict is not so intense that it is irreconcilable.

At least at the current point in time, the conflict between ancient and modern classics is not as clear as the conflict in the late Western Han Dynasty, and the dispute between the two sides has not yet evolved to the point of modern political parties, and it is not a clear alliance of political interests.

Neither side has a clear and recognized formal leader, nor does it have a unified code of conduct, let alone a clear organizational hierarchy and promotion path.

This has a certain relationship with the integration of ancient scriptures and modern scriptures since the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Moreover, even in modern times, it is not absolutely hostile, it is also a small Fengxian everywhere, and it is common for members of various factions to repeatedly jump sideways for the sake of interests.

Therefore, Lu Zhi and Yang Biao, a famous scholar from the Hongnong Yang family, also have a personal relationship in it.

This is not surprising.

And for Liu Bei, this is very convenient.

These people are either from a high-ranking family in the modern literary school, and have family Confucian classics in their families and have a very high status, or they are from the ancient literature school, famous teachers, and have learned the Five Classics.

It can be said that each of them is a big man in the world.

In the eyes of these people, if Liu Bei didn't have the identity of Lu Zhi's disciple, it would really not be a big deal.

But as Lu Zhi's disciple and an official of Shangshutai, coupled with the identity of the Han family, it is different.

If Liu Bei is diligent in learning and diligent, and there is no problem in being a man, then there is no doubt that his achievements will not be lower than his own family, Liu Biao, who is now one of the eight handsome people in the world.

Once he becomes famous and is sought after, the identity of the Han family will give Liu Bei a great bonus, and even the current royal family may favor Liu Bei and give him special treatment.

Therefore, none of these people despised Liu Bei, who was born as a commoner in the border area, and still had a certain courtesy to him, even Yang Biao, who was born in the Valle family.

Of course, it mainly depends on whether Liu Bei has the ability to do it.

He is not from a wealthy family, and no one is obligated to praise him, if he wants to be praised and someone helps him become famous, he must show real talent and learn.

Liu Bei is considered to be the most lucky, he can be recognized by Lu Zhi and become his real disciple, the heir to the mantle, and he is taken by him to carry out political and social activities, I don't know how many people envy him.

Liu Bei himself thinks so.

Lu Zhi's recognition and promotion carried him all the way up, opened up the road for him to cross classes, enabled him to cross the pinnacle of achievements that he could achieve by relying on his own ability, broke through the ceiling of powerful landlords, and became a scholar.

And through political marriages, they succeeded in entering the ruling class.

Otherwise, with his own ability, no matter how he builds, he will have to wait for the coincidence after the Yellow Turban Rebellion to have a chance to cross the class.

Lu Zhi's promotion allowed him to get this opportunity before that.

As a scholar, the best way to make a name for oneself is to carry forward what you have learned and use your knowledge to refute your opponents in the scripture debate meetings held by scholars, so that you can gradually make a name for yourself.

The more powerful the debate and the more famous, the more opportunities there are.

Liu Bei's main subjects under Lu Zhi were "Zuo's Spring and Autumn" and "Ancient Texts and Books".

And because he learned very quickly, he not only learned "Zuo's Spring and Autumn", but also learned the rival-like "Ram Spring and Autumn".

As for Shangshu, Lu Zhi himself mainly studied the "Ancient Texts and Books", and later learned from others and learned the modern texts, and Liu Bei followed Lu Zhi to learn several different annotated Shangshu.

Then Lu Zhi also had some research on "Zhou Guanli", and also taught it to Liu Bei to increase Liu Bei's knowledge reserves.

This is quite an excellent elite education for Liu Bei, and many things were taught to Liu Bei by Lu Zhi after Liu Bei's reorganization, and Liu Bei saved a lot of time looking for annotations and different times, and directly learned the most essential parts.

For this, Liu Bei is very grateful to Lu Zhi.

Of course, it is not that learning the modern scriptures is considered a success, for the ancient scriptures who have a way, it is not difficult to learn the modern scriptures, but the difficulty lies in the "official certification".

Nowadays, when private learning is prevalent, many valve reading families control the "official recognition and promulgation power" of the Five Classics and Fourteen Family Laws, even if you learn the modern scriptures, there is no corresponding "official recognition" of the valve reading family, and learning is equivalent to not learning.

For example, Liu Bei followed Lu Zhi to learn "Ouyang Shangshu", which is one of the fourteen family laws of today's Wenjing, but without the public recognition of the Hongnong Yang family, who has the official inheritance right of "Ouyang Shangshu", and does not have the identity of the most basic Yang protégé, it is equivalent to not learning and has no official value.

In short, Liu Bei could not obtain the qualifications to be an official by self-study of the Jinwen Jing, which ensured Yang's interests as a private "official certification body" to a considerable extent.

This is the core competitiveness of Hongnong Yang's.

And Lu Zhi was not surprised by Liu Bei's high speed of learning.

In the process of teaching in the city of Luoyang and the teaching in the Rebellion War, Lu Zhi found that Liu Bei's comprehension of these scriptures was very strong, his memory was also very strong, he was very serious and hard when studying, and he never deserted, so he was very satisfied with him and spared no effort to teach Liu Bei what he had learned.

Liu Bei also learned the real thing.

Liu Bei also has his own methods for how to make a name for himself in the scholar circle.

In the beginning, the gathering of scholars had no other form than drinking, dancing and listening to music, and over time, some people felt that it was monotonous, so they began to discuss academics, and then evolved into academic debates.

There are often scholars with different positions who use their own methods to debate with the methods learned by others, and at the scholars' debate meetings, if it involves the Spring and Autumn Monks' Books, he will definitely participate.

Once Liu Bei participated, few of the disciples of the famous scholars and Confucians who participated in the meeting could be with him for a long time.

I have to say that he Liu is not only hard in his hands, but also very strong in his mouth.

In the early years of Street Fighter, not only did he have to fight hard, but he also needed to negotiate with his opponents, deal with the government, and encourage the morale of his subordinates.

So he's very good at using words to achieve his goals.

And when this strength is integrated with academics, Liu Bei's advantages are completely revealed.

At the debate gathering in Luoyang City, Liu Bei's longest winning streak was twenty-four.

Twenty-four debates have not been lost.

Until the twenty-fifth debate between the ancient Shangshu and the Ouyang Shangshu, one of the family laws of the modern Shangshu, Liu Bei stood in the perspective of the ancient Shangshu and tied with the supporters of the "Ouyang Shangshu", thus ending the winning streak.

On the day Liu Bei's winning streak was ended, the entire Luoyang scholar circle was shaken.

Despite this, while the other party became famous, Liu Bei did not lose the debate and became even more famous.

In the circle of Luoyang scholars, no one knows and knows the name of Liu Xuande, a debater.
