Liu Bei explained his goals and plates, those who understand will naturally understand, and those who don't understand don't need to understand.

Seven years ago, Liu Bei set off the second peak of the ancient and modern literary controversy in Luoyang, and it was also a super peak far more than the first one, and the impact of that super peak battle seems to have disappeared so far, but in fact it has not completely disappeared.

The problems that were not solved back then are still there, and the people who were eager to solve them back then are still there, and even the people who were about to be solved as problems back then are still there.

Therefore, in this sleepless night in Luoyang City, Liu Bei is ready to do something.

He wants to take advantage of the controversy between modern and ancient literature, which seems to have retreated from the environment but in fact still has its aftermath, to do the last thing, to squeeze out the surplus value of the controversy between modern and ancient literature, and to squeeze out the surplus value of the decadent modern literary school, so as to serve the new system in the future.

This night, not only Liu Bei didn't sleep, but many people didn't sleep, and everyone didn't have the heart to sleep.

Therefore, a group of envoys sent by Liu Bei successfully gathered many family speakers from the upper echelons of the ancient literature school, and then everyone went to the meeting place that had been abandoned by them again.

Lu Zhi's home.

Since Yuan Kui split the ancient literature school, even if Liu Bei returned and the ancient literature school rebelled again, they rarely went to Lu Zhi's house for meetings.

Mainly, there is a slight embarrassment.

Facing a person who has been betrayed by them, not only does the other party feel embarrassed, but they also feel embarrassed, so it is better to try to take as few photos as possible, which is beneficial to physical and mental health.

However, now that Liu Bei is recruiting, they can't help but go.

Liu Bei was the first to arrive at Lu Zhi's house, and Lu Zhi, who couldn't sleep at all, was pleasantly surprised to see Liu Bei coming, and was overjoyed, and immediately grabbed Liu Bei's hand and asked him to tell him everything that happened.

Lu Zhi knew almost nothing about what happened that day, and he had no idea how this incident had come to the point of physical destruction.

Therefore, he complained somewhat about Liu Bei, who was at the center of the incident, and complained about why he didn't tell him anything.

However, after this wave of Liu Bei came over and brought him the news that Liu Hong had died, Lu Zhi didn't continue to care about this matter.

He collapsed directly on the ground and cried, crying heartbreakingly.

He has no other monarch, he is a pure minister personally recruited by the Son of Heaven, a courtier of Liu Hong, he only needs to be loyal to Liu Hong, and he will only cry and shed tears for Liu Hong.

Liu Bei couldn't do anything, so he could only stay by his side, and after he cried and cried, he handed him a cloth towel.

"The death of the Son of Heaven is a very sad thing for the subjects of the world, but we still have a lot of things to accomplish, teacher, you can cry at any time, but to stabilize the world, only now."

Lu Zhi wiped the tears from his face and looked at Liu Bei.

"Xuande, what else is there to do?"

"Teacher, before I came, I had already gathered all the elders of the ancient literature school, and when the new emperor was about to ascend the throne, there were some things that we had to complete first."

"School of Ancient Literature ......"

Lu Zhi's face became a little bad: "Xuande, whether it is the modern literary school or the ancient literary school, it is no longer very important, in the eyes of the teacher, they are no different, and it makes no sense to continue to be entangled in the modern literary school and the ancient literary school." ”

"The disciple also knows."

Liu Bei nodded and said: "But teacher, these two schools still exist, and the disciples need the help of the Ancient Literature School and their support, because right now, there is a very important thing that needs their collective support to achieve." ”

Then, Liu Bei told Lu Zhi a series of previous things, including the analysis of the current situation.

"General, ......"

Lu Zhi looked at Liu Bei with a somewhat complicated expression, and then smiled bitterly.

"When I saw you in the court today, Bo Ji said to me beside my voice that your achievements will far surpass mine, not comparable to me, and I guessed at that time that you are the greatest hero in this matter, so you will definitely receive the highest reward."

"Disciples don't attach much importance to the level of position, but if they don't have a high position, they don't have the power to do things."

Liu Bei said in a low voice: "Teacher, the disciple's plan is to control the government with the position of a general, and then use this power to carry out the reform of the Han world, and promote the successful experience of Liangzhou to all places, and the most important step in this is what the teacher in Jizhou once said, Dutian." ”

Lu Zhi's complexion changed, and then his brows tightened.

"Xuande, haven't you forgotten this matter?"

"Of course, the disciple will not forget, and of course the disciple also thinks that this matter is very important, and it is a way to change the status quo of the Han world."

Liu Bei nodded and said: "Back then, when the teacher said it, the disciple said that it was not the right time, and now, the disciple is about to become a general and hold important authority, once this authority is in hand, it is not impossible to jointly develop Dutian as the teacher's captain and the disciple's general." ”

Lu Zhi thought about it along Liu Bei's train of thought, and there was immediately brilliance in his eyes.

"It's true that the general and the captain join forces to definitely promote the strategy of Dutian, and it will be very effective, but the opposition will also be very large......"

"So that's why it's important to unite the school of paleontology."

Liu Bei said slowly: "With the current situation, Dutian can't be fully developed in one go, and we can't let the people of the world know that we plan to expand Dutian to the world at the beginning.

Attack the isolated enemy with the most support, and strive for the first victory of Dutian, so that you can accumulate more capital and prestige, then it will not be so difficult to carry out the second wave of Dutian, what does the teacher think? ”

Lu Zhi thought for a while.

"So Xuande, do you mean to win over the ancient literature school, launch an attack on the modern literature school, and under the guise of eliminating the modern literature school, in fact, promote the Du Tian of the modern literature school?"

"Exactly."

Liu Bei nodded and said: "It has been a long time since the Ancient Literature School wanted to eliminate the Modern Literature School, and the Modern Literature School is indeed very weak at the moment.

After the destruction of the modern literary school, the law of the scholars was re-established, and the valve reading high gate was re-established, and during this period, the liquidation of the modern literary school was simultaneously promoted, and the strategy of the field was launched, first attacking the valve reading high gate of the modern literary school and their servant families.

The disciples believed that with the greed of the modern literary school and the family business they had accumulated over several generations, the fruits of this first wave of the fields would be very great. ”

"Joint eunuchs, relatives?"

Lu Zhi hesitated: "Xuande, what do you mean to join forces with Zhang Rang, Jian Shuo, and Dong Chongzhi and others?" ”

"Teacher, if you want to promote reform, you need helpers, especially for things like Dutian, you need more helpers."

Liu Bei said slowly: "The disciple knows that this is no different from seeking skin with the tiger, but we have no other way, Dutian is too involved, it involves fundamental problems, a little carelessness, all the games will be lost, only if there are enough helpers, the first step can be taken." ”

"But Xuande, the first step has been taken, what about the second step?"

Lu Zhi sighed and said slowly: "The first step was successful, and the modern literary school was eliminated, so what about the second step?" It is impossible for Dutian to only save the fields of the modern literary school, eunuchs, and relatives, including the ancient literary school itself, are also sinners who encroach on the acres of land, so their fields are not saved? ”

"Of course, but it has to be done step by step."

Liu Bei said in a low voice: "Teacher, we can't make the whole world enemy at the beginning, we need to slowly try it, the first step is to eliminate the modern literary school, and the second step is to retry the situation, observe the contradictions and disputes between the eunuchs, relatives and the ancient literary school, find the weak points, and attack them."

There is so much power in the court, but people's desires are endless, eunuchs and relatives and ancient literature schools, after reaching a balance for a while, it will not take long, there will definitely be disputes again, and at that time, it will be our opportunity. ”
