Looking at the fair-skinned Jiang Wanqiu, Huo Guang smiled faintly and said, "What are these words!"

"Dare to ask Little Lady Jiang!"

"When did I lie to your grandfather? Why don't you dare to come?"

As soon as this remark came out.

Jiang Wanqiu replied, "The last time you came to persuade my Taigong to bring the Confucian disciples of the Guliang Sect to participate in that competition, you didn't say that you yourself were the disciples of Dong Lao of the Ram Sect."

Hear the words.

Huo Guang frowned and said, "I just didn't say it, isn't it a lie?"

"Of course!" Jiang Wanqiu said angrily.

In the last competition to promote calligraphy and paper, both Sima Qian's articles and Huo Guang's paintings were from the Ram School, and the two were recognized as the best works.

The works of disciples of other schools of Confucianism, in front of these two works, are almost a complete failure, and they have no place to embarrass themselves.

This made the Ram School, which was originally popular, even more famous. And the Guliang School was sluggish for a while.

Jiang Wanqiu's Taigong, that is, the Duke of Flawed Hill Jiang.

Since I came back from the book and paper competition, I have become thinner and thinner day by day.

Jiang Wanqiu saw all this in her eyes, and immediately remembered her reasons on Huo Guangtou.

It makes sense.

But here's the thing.

With Huo Guang's character, he has never been used to girls.

He stared at Jiang Wanqiu tightly, and said lightly, "Hehe, what the little lady said is really ridiculous. I just didn't introduce myself as a disciple of Dong Gong, so I said I was deceived."

"But you didn't ask beforehand."

"It's because you didn't ask clearly, how can you say that I lied? Besides, I'm just responsible for informing Jiang Gong about the competition, is it possible, and I want to report my family background?"

"Am I sick, or what?"

Jiang Wanqiu saw that Huo Guang was talking about the Tao, and she couldn't refute it, so she changed her words and asked, "Okay, let's not talk about what happened last time."

"What are you doing this time?"

Finally back to business.

Huo Guang smiled faintly and said, "This time there is naturally a major matter related to the life and death of my Gu Liang faction, and I have to discuss it with Jiang Gong. Little lady, can you make it convenient for me to meet your father-in-law?"

However.

After Jiang Wanqiu heard this, she pouted and said, "You are still from the Guliang faction? You, a disciple of the Ram Sect, don't feel ashamed to say this!"

For this non-lethal mockery.

Huo Guang shook his head disdainfully and said, "Confucianism and Confucianism are originally one family. What you Guliang faction, my ram faction, and his left faction are just doctrinal distinctions. Could it be that if I read the ram, I can't watch Gu Liang and Zuo Chuan?"

In fact.

Confucian disciples have read three books, and even studied them several times or even dozens of times.

Why?

If you don't understand the content of the arguments of the other factions, how can you use them to refute the arguments of the other factions?

So if you really want to talk about it, the disciples of the Guliang faction may know more about rams than the Ram faction.

Jiang Wanqiu knew that she couldn't say anything about Huo Guang, so she immediately refused directly: "No matter how you can speak, you will definitely not be able to visit Taigong today. Because, I won't tell you about it."

however

Huo Guang smiled and said, "If you don't report this time, you can't do it."

"Why?"

Jiang Wanqiu suddenly frowned, a little puzzled.

Huo Guang just smiled and said, "Because this is what Your Majesty meant, I will inform the leaders of the Confucian universities to have a debate and competition."

Jiang Wanqiu was also stunned for a while when she heard what Huo Guang said.

After that, he stretched out his hand towards Huo Guang and asked, "What about the holy decree?"

"There is no holy decree, this is the dictation of Your Majesty." Huo Guang smiled faintly, and said in a confident tone: "What's the matter, Little Lady Jiang, if you don't report it, don't you want your princess to be charged with disobedience!"

He didn't lie either, this was originally Your Majesty

meaning.

And!

He is a councilor, and the truth of saying such words is still very high.

Thereupon.

Jiang Wanqiu, who didn't want to inform Huo Guang of his visit, could only compromise at this moment: "Okay, then you wait, I'll go and tell the princess."

"Then there is the little lady of Laojiang."

Huo Guang slightly arched his hand, and a harmless smile appeared on his face.

Soon.

Jiang Wanqiu came out and said to Huo Guang, "Taigong said, please come in."

"I'm tired."

Huo Guang arched his hand, and then under the leadership of Jiang Wanqiu, he walked in and saw Jiang Gong.

Just compared to the last time.

On the face of Jiang Gong, there was no good look.

After all!

The fact that he is a disciple of Dong Zhongshu of the Ram Sect has been known to everyone after the results of the last book and paper competition came out.

"Huo Yilang said... It is His Majesty's will, so that the Confucian doctrines are debated, and the old man hears it, and even ... I was very excited."

"It's a pity, Jiang is old, I'm afraid... I'm afraid that I won't be able to talk to people, so I can only say sorry first."

"Huo Yilang, why don't you find someone else?"

At this time, Huo Guanggang opened his mouth and wanted to say something polite, but before he could say anything, he was ruthlessly rejected by the Duke of Defective Qiu.

A little helpless!

People said that he was old, and this point really had to be discussed, and Huo Guang had no choice.

You can't force the old man to go out and fight with other Confucians, right?

It won't sound good to say it when the time comes!

Maybe it will make the Confucian disciples slander His Majesty, and over time, the result will be Huo Guang's.

Come to think of it.

Huo Guang frowned slightly, and sighed, "In this way, if Jiang Gong can't participate, it's a pity. Originally, I wanted to say that the winner of this contest can explain Confucianism to the prince Liu Ju."

"Tsk."

"If Gong Jiang doesn't participate, then the last benefit will have to fall on the Ram Sect."

"Huh..."

"The Ram Sect will become Confucian orthodoxy in the future, and it is really the mandate of heaven that cannot be violated!"

It's very light.

But the amount of weight contained in it is quite heavy.

The prince Liu Ju was born to the queen's mother, Wei Zifu, his uncle was General Wei, his cousin was the champion Hou Huo, and his uncle-in-law was Sun He, the servant of Jiuqing!

A person who has no doubt and will become the crown prince of the Han Dynasty.

If the prince has been exposed to the Confucian doctrine taught since he was a child, then his school will surely become the orthodox doctrine of Han Confucianism in the future.

So after Huo Guang said those words.

There was a subtle change in Jiang Gong's expression, and he immediately said, "Hehe, Huo Yilang Mo... Mo Mo didn't think that I didn't know about the affairs of the court, that Zhuang Qingzhai had already been appointed as the prince by His Majesty, what happened to the old man?"

Huo Guang waved his hand and said, "So, what I'm saying is that the winner has the opportunity to teach the prince Confucianism, not to say that he is a prince."

Looked at.

Jiang Gong immediately furrowed his eyebrows.

He is an old bone, and he has no interest in being an official.

What really attracted him was Liu Ju, the future emperor of the Han Dynasty. If there is no accident, after the death of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it is a sure thing that Liu Ju will become the next emperor.

If the next emperor has been exposed to Gu Liang's doctrine since childhood, there is no need to say how much benefit it will be to the development of Gu Liang.

Come to mind.

Gong Jiang of the Broken Hill suddenly smiled and said, "Huo Yilang today, can you wish... Would you like to stay and eat in the old man's house? Wanqiu's cooking, but it's a must, I heard that Huo Yilang is... I run a restaurant, so I think I have a unique insight into food."

"No... No

Why don't you stay and try it!"

"How?"

Since ancient times, inviting guests to stay for dinner has been the highest standard of etiquette for Chinese children.

Of course.

Most of them are polite words.

Huo Guang naturally understood this, so he said to Jiang Gong Jiang on the spot, "Jiang Gong, the kid still has important things to do, and he really doesn't have time today. Next time, next time!"

Jiang Gong then said with a little regret, "In this way, it is really a pity."

Subsequently.

Huo Guang gave up his hand and said goodbye to Qiu Jiang.

Jiang Wanqiu also sent Huo Guang out of the house at the behest of her father-in-law.

As a matter of fact.

The mansion of the Duke of Bianqiu Jiang is not large, or even very small, but this is a matter of etiquette.

If it was sent by Jiang Gong himself, it would not be appropriate, after all, Jiang Gong was much older than Huo Guang in terms of age.

So.

can only let Jiang Wanqiu send Huo Guang out.

After leaving the Jiang Mansion, Huo Guang wanted to leave directly, but Jiang Wanqiu suddenly shouted to him and said, "Eh, Huo Yilang, I just let the disciples compete last time, why did I let my grandfather personally compete this time."

"You won't hide anything in this contest of Confucian doctrines, right?"

Huo Guang shook his head and said, "Don't worry, this competition is a normal exposition of Confucianism, I don't think it's enough to participate, what can I hide."

As soon as Jiang Wanqiu heard that he couldn't participate in it, she was much more relieved at the moment.

Forthwith.

Softly said, "That's good."

Huo Guang didn't care about Jiang Wanqiu's words, he just waved his hand, and left the Jiang Mansion and walked in the direction where Old Dong's Mansion was located.

Well...

Contrary to last time, this time Huo Guang went to see the flawed Qiu Jianggong first, and then fooled Dong Zhongshu later.

After meeting Dong Zhongshu.

Huo Guang directly cried with a sad face, and shouted: "Teacher, the big thing is not good, Your Majesty wants the Confucian scholars of various schools of Confucianism to have a debate."

Hear this.

Dong Gong raised his eyebrows, and he couldn't see joy on his face, but asked lightly, "Oh? Do you mean that my Ram faction is going to argue with other Confucian schools? What's so bad about this, debate, the old man has never lost anyone!"

That's true!

Jiang Gong stammered, and the dark old man on Zuo Chuan didn't know how to speak.

Outside of the ram, there are only these two schools that can fight.

He certainly didn't lose.

Although Huo Guang thought so in his heart, he continued, "Is the teacher so confident?"

"Haha, the disciple was worried just now!"

"After all, the flawed Qiu Jiang Gong of the Guliang faction has already said that he wants to participate in the debate, and he also said that the Guliang faction is the orthodoxy of Confucianism, and the rest of the schools are the last stream."

"Fart!" When Dong Zhongshu heard this, he scolded directly.

And Huo Guang also said, "Mmmm, that flawed Qiu Jianggong is talking like a fart!"

But Dong Zhongshu scolded again: "The old man said that you farted this erection, what's the matter, the last time you deceived the old man, you want to do it again?"

All right!

It turned out that he lied to Dong Gong last time that he had already known about Qiu Jianggong's participation in the book and paper competition.

After thinking about it.

Huo Guang's expression remained unchanged, but he smiled and said, "There is really no deception this time, and the flawed Qiu Jiang Gongzhen participated in this competition. Teacher, in this controversy, the winner will be chosen as the one who teaches the Confucianism of the prince."

Although he said so!

But the story of the wolf came told Huo Guang that Dong Gong didn't believe it at all.

I saw Dong Gong smile faintly: "Since it is a Confucian competition, it doesn't necessarily have to be an old man. In this way, you have also learned the ram, and you will compete with Na Jiang Gong for the old man, just like the last time you won the first place in the book and paper competition silently."

All right.

It seems that Dong Gong is still worried about what happened last time.

Huo Guang was still

I wanted to explain, but suddenly I was a little uncomfortable!

It is not said that the greatest evil of human nature is to use the least power to make it difficult for others to the greatest extent.

Well...

Huo Guang didn't dare to agree!

At this moment, I have so much power, why do I still cry my father and grandmother and beg others to participate?

Shouldn't you be making things difficult for others, right?

Immediately!

Huo Guang's heart was crossed, and he planned to tell the old man not to forget it.

So Huo Guang arched his hand and said, "Teacher, if you really don't want to participate, the students don't force it. However, the boy can explain in advance that the victor of this argument will explain Confucian knowledge to the prince."

When Dong Lao heard this, he shook his head noncommittally and said, "Heh, who knows what kind of crooked ideas you have in this erection."

Originally.

Huo Guang was not pleasing in the eyes of Dong Lao.

In the last book and paper competition, although the painting was also regarded as his ram faction, it could make Dong Zhongshu miserable openly and secretly.

Many people say that the disciples of the Ram Sect cheat.

How can you be both the organizer and the candidate? Good guys, the organizer gives his own work and then takes the first place himself?

It's not appropriate to use other people as monkeys!

However.

Huo Guang, as the champion Hou brother, lives in the general, even if he plays others as monkeys, others dare not trouble him.

Thereupon!

Those losers put their bad reputation on Dong Zhongshu, saying that he taught his disciple Yunyun badly.

Therefore, when Huo Guang's old trick was repeated.

Dong Zhongshu, who has a good reputation, refused without any hesitation.

"Huo Guang, what are you calculating, the old man doesn't care. However, this time it is impossible to trick the Ram Faction into covering up for what you have done!" Dong Lao touched his beard and said.

Huo Guang didn't say much about this, only shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, if Elder Dong is unwilling to participate, the disciple will never be reluctant to take his leave!"

Subsequently.

Huo Guang still bowed respectfully to Dong Zhongshu.

Loyalty, filial piety, courtesy, righteousness and shame, the first four things still have to be done.

The last three? Let's talk about it!

A few days later.

Without convincing Dong Zhongshu to participate in the Confucian doctrine debate, Huo Guang had already started the Confucian doctrine debate.

The children of Confucianism of various factions rose up one after another.

Originally, the disciples of different factions of Confucianism had quarrels from time to time, but now Huo Guang has made him open-minded.

In the absence of Dong Zhongshu as the leader of the Ram faction, it is basically difficult to compare with the Guliang faction and the Zuo faction, and it is even difficult to win the Confucian doctrine of other systems.

The reason why the Ram faction was popular during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was not only because of how good the Ram Spring and Autumn Period was.

It's about Dong Zhongshu!

Many people only know that he and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che put forward the admonition of "deposing the hundred schools", but they don't know that after the deposition of the hundred schools, Dong Zhongshu absorbed the strengths of the hundred schools for Confucianism.

Otherwise.

How can Confucianism alone support the thriving Han culture?

Of course.

These are digressions.

When the various factions of Confucianism began to debate, Sima Qian knew that Dong Gong did not lead the Ram faction to participate in it, so he hurried to meet and persuade him.

"Chair, in this Confucian factional debate, the Ram faction is really difficult to raise a banner without your participation. If the ram is defeated, in the next hundred or even hundreds of years, the Guliang doctrine will prevail."
