445 Master-Apprentice Alliance vs. Worm Alliance
In this era when the probationary system dominates the election of imperial talents, Maocai is one level higher than filial piety, and the future promotion will be smoother, and there are very few people who have this qualification.
In the entire Han Empire, there are only one or twenty people at most who have the qualifications to promote Maocai, so each Maocai is nominated at most one or twenty people, or even single digits.
Entering the official career through Maocai is equivalent to booking the seats of the Three Princes and Nine Secretaries in advance, which is an unattainable existence for ordinary people.
Liu Bei has such a resource in his hand, he is naturally noble, and people who want to obtain such resources must have a rushing attitude towards him.
Of course, it's not enough to just have resources, you need to use them.
Lu Zhi has a lot of resources on his side, but Lu Zhi has not used it much, he has his own insistence on this kind of thing, cherishes his feathers, cherishes his reputation, and is unwilling to accommodate the world for certain things.
Therefore, Lu Zhi has not been able to achieve anything in his tenure as a lieutenant, not only because he has no good opportunities, but also because few people are willing to cooperate with Lu Zhi.
Lu Zhi is unwilling to give his own resources in exchange, so no one is willing to cooperate with him.
Liu Bei discussed this matter with Lu Zhi and suggested that he change his principles of doing things a little, but Lu Zhi said that he was unwilling to compromise.
"I have done a lot of things against my will before, but I have not made the ancient literature school better, so now, I don't want to continue to humiliate my reputation, I hope to be able to preserve the last reputation, not to make meritorious contributions, but to seek no fault, Xuande, don't talk about it."
Lu Zhi may be able to discuss other things, but Lu Zhi cares very much about this matter, and he is absolutely unwilling to use his political resources to do a dirty political exchange, which will make him feel disgusting.
Liu Bei had no choice but to make a killing move.
"Then if the disciple is in a disadvantageous state because of this, do you have to stand by and watch?"
When he said this, Lu Zhi had no choice.
"Xuande, Xuande, hehe, that's it, that's it, if you need anything, just tell me."
Under Liu Bei's offensive, Lu Zhi still compromised, saying that the quota of Maocai was the most precious and important political resource in his hands, and he was willing to take it out and hand it over to Liu Bei for deployment.
If necessary, the quota on his Taiwei Mansion can also be taken out and handed over to Liu Bei for allocation.
He has only one requirement, the candidate needs to be checked by Liu Bei personally, he must be a talent, and he must not be a worm, in this regard, he can't believe others, he only believes Liu Bei.
Liu Bei agreed to Lu Zhi.
So on February 25, the sixth year of Zhongping, Lu Zhi and Liu Bei's master-apprentice alliance and He Jin and Yuan Kui's insect alliance were completely formed.
Liu Bei held all the political resources brought by the two positions of hussar general and tailieutenant, and stood on the opposite side of He Jin and Yuan Kui, opening the prelude to the [Decisive Battle at the Top of Luoyang 2.0].
With the confrontation between the master-apprentice alliance and the insect alliance, the situation in Luoyang has undergone further changes, and Liu Bei has also taken advantage of the situation to launch specific actions against the insect alliance.
Liu Bei's return and public opposition to the abolition of Chang Liyou made many people's worries about Liu Bei disappear, not to mention that after returning to Luoyang, Liu Bei twice mentioned in public that he opposed the abolition of Chang Liyou.
The first time was only a small presentation.
The second time was Liu Bei's speech at a banquet held in the Hussar General's Mansion to celebrate the official opening of the Hussar General's Mansion.
He once again said that he opposes the abolition of the elder and the young, and upholds the rules of the inheritance of the eldest son, and that his return this time is by no means to promote the abolition of the elder and the young, and he can use his credibility to vouch for it.
The reason why he is willing to come back is because some people hold their troops to respect themselves, do not obey the orders of the Son of Heaven, treat the orders of the Son of Heaven as child's play, and do not respect the Son of Heaven.
This kind of thing, as a member of the Han family, cannot be tolerated.
He will definitely maintain the glory of the primogeniture inheritance system, but he cannot tolerate the Liu family's imperial power being provoked by people with foreign surnames, and he stands in the position of the royal family to maintain the majesty of the royal family.
This is tantamount to openly declaring war on Yuan Kui and He Jin.
And Liu Bei's declaration prompted some Luoyang scholars to reflect and begin to think about a very serious question - did the emperor really want to abolish the elders and establish the young when he engaged in such a big battle against He Jin?
If so, what happened to Liu Bei's statements and statements and the establishment of the Hussar General's Palace?
If not, why is it so deliberately aimed at He Jin?
Is it really just about what?
Thinking of this, someone suddenly mentioned something.
Back then, when today's son ascended the throne, he was supported by the former general Dou Wu, and when today's son was on the throne was decided by Dou Wu, the latter two clashed, and when today's son relied on the power of eunuchs to get rid of the general Dou Wu and regain power.
Looking further back, the first emperor was also supported by Liang Ji, who was a general at the time, to ascend to the throne, and later relied on the power of eunuchs to kill Liang Ji and regain power.
The biggest obstacle in the early days of the two emperors was the general, so look at He Jin now, look at He Jin's power now, and Queen He in the palace......
If today's son passes away and Liu Wei ascends the throne, is the power in the hands of Liu Bian, or is it in the hands of Queen He and He Jin's brothers and sisters?
Can the Son of Heaven accept it?
As soon as this idea was proposed, there was immediately a large market, and some people began to hold such a view, thinking that the possibility of such a situation may be the goal of the Son of Heaven to decide to do something to He Jin.
Because he was disgusted with He Jin and the tradition of the great general, Liu Hongcai decided to launch a series of actions against He Jin, he didn't care that He Jin was the uncle of the emperor's eldest son, he only hoped that the imperial power of the Liu family would not be left behind, and could always be in his hands.
When you think about it this way, many things that you couldn't figure out in the past can be figured out in an instant.
As a result, some people who were originally on a vacillating position fell to the master-apprentice alliance of Lu Zhi and Liu Bei, choosing to stand on Liu Bei's side and choose to stand on the side of the Son of Heaven.
Liu Bei also jumped up and down during this time, running back and forth in Luoyang City, looking for support in many ways, and once again sacrificed the usual magic weapon in the period of the dispute between modern and ancient texts.
He said that after getting rid of those who did not respect the Son of Heaven, he would once again push for the classics of the ancient school to replace the classics of the modern school of literature.
Yuan Kui had such a promise before, but he failed, he didn't succeed, and he dragged on and on, anyway, he didn't succeed, and the ancient literature forces that threw themselves at Yuan Kui were very worried.
Especially in the face of Liu Bei's strong rise, they were even more worried, so they began to consciously send people to Lu Zhi to ease the relationship, and before Liu Bei returned to Luoyang, they were ready to jump sideways repeatedly, and after Liu Bei came back, they were even more positive and enthusiastic.
didn't want Liu Bei to come to them, they came to Liu Bei.
Among them, the representatives are mainly Zheng Tai and Jia Xi.
When Lu Zhi and Yuan Kui were arguing, these two were representative figures who took refuge in Yuan Kui, and they were obviously also the beneficiaries of the Zuo family's Spring and Autumn Period, but they chose to turn their backs on Lu Zhi and follow Yuan Kui because of the requests of other families and the additional interests of their own families.
They are not satisfied with the status quo of Zuo's Spring and Autumn Period, they want more ancient classics to replace modern classics, they want more.
Now that Liu Bei is back, they have come to Liu Bei again to contact their feelings, saying that they are just to let other families that have not gained benefits gain benefits together, in order to ensure the maximum unity of the ancient literature school and avoid complete splitting.
Only the family of the Zuo Spring and Autumn Inheritance has profited, and the inheritance of other families has not profited, this is not okay, this is not conducive to unity, this is not good for the great harmony of the entire ancient literature school, everyone needs to seriously consider this issue.
At that time, Lu Zhi couldn't lead everyone in this direction, only Yuan Kui could, so it was understandable that everyone would follow Yuan Kui.
They just made the same mistakes that all the Valves family make, and they should be forgiven once.
Right, Xuande?
Liu Bei looked at them with a smile and nodded slowly.
Yes, of course.
Everyone is just for the sake of interests, not for anything else, and they don't have any personal views on Lu Zhi, so as long as the interests are in place, they can still cooperate with each other to do great things, right?
Liu Bei didn't think about what he did to them at the beginning, the so-called righteous people have more help, and the unrighteous have little help, and now if Liu Bei can't get help from many people, won't he prove that he has no "Tao"?
And when he has the "Tao", those who do not help him become the unenlightened.
That's when a full-scale counteroffensive comes in.
Now is not the time.
Therefore, Liu Bei immediately said that it was his duty to lead everyone to victory, as long as he could defeat Yuan Kui and He Jin's insect alliance, then he would be the strongest power, and at that time, he would definitely help the ancient literature school completely sweep the modern literature school into the garbage heap.
But the premise is that you have to help me, you have to help me with all your might, and you can't have two hearts anymore.
Zheng Tai and Jia Xi immediately said that Liu Bei was wise and martial, and he looked like he could win, and they would definitely do their best to help Liu Bei win, and they would definitely not let the insects win.
After Liu Bei's forgiveness statement, Zheng Tai and Jia Xi brought good news to the wall-head grass, and the good news was brought, and the wall-head grass naturally returned to the side, and they all returned to the master-apprentice alliance.
The reason is simple.
In the end, Yuan Kui jumped the other way around the modern literary school, and Lu Zhi and Liu Bei tried to be their own people of the ancient literary school, and under the same conditions, their own people are more trustworthy, and outsiders ......
It's hard to say.
So Yuan Kui was dumbfounded.
