After returning from the Wushi Mountain, when crossing the Luoshui River, they saw that the traffic on the north bank was blocked, and many carriages and carriages led to the east gate of Taixue.

After arriving on the north bank, Yang Ming asked Zhang Yi to take Wang Yi and the others back to the mansion first, while he walked into Taixue with Er Xun and Wang Xiu.

When you come out for an outing, you naturally want to go and get together.

Taixue is the highest institution of learning in the country, since the Western Zhou Dynasty, to the Eastern Han Dynasty by the Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu in the southeast of the city of Kaiyang Gate reconstruction.

The emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty has always attached great importance to Taixue, and Emperor Liu Zhuang of the Han Ming Dynasty has personally come to Taixue to give lectures.

By the time of Emperor Liu Bao of Han Shun, more than 110,000 workers were employed, and it took a year to build 240 rooms and 1,850 rooms, and more than 30,000 students were recruited nationwide, reaching the peak.

Yang Ming and the others entered from the west gate and met many students, all of whom were also heading east at this time.

These students were dressed in very different ways, some in fine clothes, others in coarse garments of arrowroot.

And the age span is also very large, they see that the youngest has not yet tied his hair, but only thirteen or fourteen years old, and the eldest, with gray sideburns, is probably the age of sixties.

If you hadn't heard the title of him when he discussed the scriptures with others, you would have thought that this was some doctor of the Pentateuch.

"I have heard that Taixue students are particularly free, and they can study here all their lives, and there are even those who die of Taixue's illness." Xun Yu sighed.

Wang Xiu bowed his head, and then said: "There is a famous prince in Jiyin, Yu Taixue died of illness, Chen Liuren Shen Tupan personally pushed the cart, sent the funeral back to the hometown, Lu Yu Si was engaged, engaged in its righteousness, for its encyclical, sent people to escort, Shen Tupan refused to accept it, threw the ultimatum on the ground, praised the world. ”

"Shuzhi is well-read and knowledgeable, which makes Yu admire." Xun Yu exclaimed.

Wang Xiu's face did not show complacency, but suddenly asked Xun Yu: "What does Xun Jun think of Shen Tupan as a person?" ”

Xun Yu didn't expect Wang Xiu to ask such a question, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Shen Tupan knows the Five Classics, lives in seclusion, and is famous all over the world, but if you say it by Shuzhi, it is really a bit unworthy of the name. ”

"What does it mean to be unworthy of the name?" Wang Xiu asked.

"He was engaged in preaching an encyclical for him, sending someone to escort him, out of kindness, to help him mourn as soon as possible, and he didn't accept it, but threw it to the ground in public, this is not a high wind, but it is actually for his own fame." Xun Yu explained.

Wang Xiu shook his head when he heard this, and then sighed with emotion: "Xun Jun Zhizhi has been studying for a long time, but he has already seen the fire, which makes Xiu admire. ”

He was obviously deliberately tempting, after all, he didn't know Xun Yu's talent, so he was naturally curious about who could make Yang Ming "Wang Zuozhicai" with just a few words.

As a result of the trial, the two began to blow each other in business.

All the way forward, more and more people are going east.

Xun You said at this time: "I heard that Gong Cai is still presiding over the Xiping Stone Scripture in Taixue? ”

After saying this, Xun Yu and Wang Xiu paused blowing each other, and Yang Ming also understood that so many people were going east, presumably Cai Yong was there at this time.

Realizing this, they all accelerated their pace.

Before they reached the east gate, they saw dozens of stone tablets standing on the east side of the lecture hall.

Each of those steles is more than four feet high, four feet wide, and they are arranged in turn, which is quite spectacular.

At this time, a large number of students and scholars have gathered next to a certain stone stele, with three layers inside and outside, and the water cannot be drained.

"Good location there." Yang Ming found that there were still few people on a hill, and greeted a few people.

The crowd hastened their pace, and when they arrived, the onlookers had quickly gathered around.

Such a scene is really lively.

At this time, when they looked further to the center, they saw that someone was writing on the tablet with cinnabar.

This person is born out of phase, but he has an elegant bearing, who else can he be if he is not Cai Yong.

I saw that he walked the dragon and snake, and the scriptures sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, jumping on the stele.

The scriptures of the Han Dynasty were mostly recorded on bamboo slips with small seals, but the seal writing was too troublesome, so in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Han Li had become the mainstream.

At this time, Cai Yong used not the common Han Li, but the eight-point Li, taking the left and right distribution of the trend, highlighting the pick painting and the painting, the oblique painting is tightly knotted, and the sense of decoration is very strong.

Not long after, Cai Yong finished writing a scripture, sweat oozing from his forehead, but it also attracted everyone's applause.

Yang Ming also stretched out his hand to applaud.

The advantage of using cinnabar to write is that it can be changed now, but Cai Yong did not pause and did it in one go, and he deserves to be a master of calligraphy in the world.

Cai Yong threw down the pen, wiped a handful of sweat, and looked at the inscription in front of him with a complacent face.

Once the inscription is written, all it takes is for the craftsmen to chisel the inscription.

He turned his head to the right again to look at the stone tablets that had been hewn and carved, and nodded with his hand touching his long beard.

This is the eighteenth stone monument, and progress is faster than expected.

"Cai Gong, why is the tablet full of modern scriptures, but no ancient scriptures?" Just as everyone was applauding, someone suddenly asked loudly.

This question instantly caused a stir at the scene.

Soon everyone gave way to the gap, and more than a dozen people came from nowhere, looking at Cai Yong indignantly at this time.

Cai Yong turned to look at a few people, speechless.

Why is there no ancient text? Because this is Taixue, the official study of the Eastern Han Dynasty is the current Wenjing.

The reason for the Xiping Stone Scripture is because the current Wenjing "goes to the holy for a long time, the words are absurd, the vulgar Confucianism is chiseled, and the suspicion is learned".

Translation, because there is no unified version, there are many errors, and it has reached the point where it cannot be inherited.

Therefore, after verification, it was carved into a stone tablet for the world's scholars to copy and correct.

This reason is even more profound from Yang Ming's point of view.

The literacy rate in the Han Dynasty was less than 5 percent, and although paper was available, it was difficult to transcribe and preserve it, and bamboo slips could not be printed, so this method was the only way to correct them.

These truths are well known to all the corporals, which is why the Xiping Stone Scripture is so popular.

These people questioned Cai Yong at this time, either stupid or bad.

"Although my ancient scriptures are not official studies, I can't have any articles?" Seeing that Cai Yong did not answer, the man continued to question.

As soon as these words came out, it immediately caused a commotion on the scene.

Although most of the people in Taixue are studying the modern scriptures, there are also many people who study the ancient scriptures, not to mention that there are many scholars at the scene at this time, and there are not a few people who study the ancient scriptures.

Although Cai Yong is a literary hero, he is not good at debating, not to mention that this question is difficult to answer.

"These disciples are making trouble." Xun Yu said.

Yang Ming nodded, being able to question at this time was naturally not stupid, but with ulterior motives.

Cai Yong never answered, and the crowd became agitated.

And just like at Yang Ming's wedding that day, there were also disciples of ancient and modern scriptures who began to argue on the spot.

It can be clearly felt that after a few months of fermentation, there has long been tension between the disciples of the ancient and modern scriptures.

Any contradiction may erupt into large-scale controversy and conflict.

At this time, there are many onlookers, and it is easy to form a chaotic stampede.

Seeing this, Yang Ming said in a deep voice: "This matter is decided by Your Majesty, what does it have to do with Cai Gong?" ”

He was condescending, and the volume was loud at this time, which suddenly made the scene a lot quieter.

Yes, although the matter of the Six Classics is written by Cai Yong, the matter of carving the stele and the content of the inscription are determined by Liu Hong, and Cai Yong does not have such rights.

When they came back to their senses, everyone looked at the dirt slope in unison.

Cai Yong also followed the prestige at this time, and when he saw that the person who shouted was Yang Ming, he couldn't help but show joy.

"Although it has nothing to do with Cai Gong, the inscription has not yet been completed at this time, and we and other people who have ancient scriptures should jointly write a letter asking Your Majesty to increase the content of ancient scriptures!" The man continued to shout.

"No!" Cai Yong finally spoke at this time.

"Why not?" The man continued to question, but the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose.

Cai Yong was speechless at this time.

"Cai Gong has been recruited." Xun Yu said.

Yang Ming turned his head and glanced at him suspiciously.

"I heard my father say that the forty-six steles used in the Xiping Stone Sutra are all from the same boulder, and they have been used up." Xun Yu continued.

Wang Xiu also realized when he heard this: "If this is the case, taking a new stele seems incompatible with the old stele, and it must not be done, in other words, if you want to increase the content of the ancient scriptures, you must delete the content of the current scriptures." ”

"That's it." Xun Yu's head.

Hearing the two of them say this, Yang Ming immediately came to his senses, and became more and more sure that this group of people came prepared.

"What are you waiting for? It is incumbent upon our generation to recast the glory of ancient scriptures! Seeing that the crowd hesitated, the man raised his arms and shouted.

The people beside him shouted, and many students of the ancient scriptures around him were gradually brought up.

Although they didn't know about the steles, the Tai students were always the easiest people to be inspired.

"Wait!" Yang Ming shouted to stop again.

Xu was justified by Yang Ming's words just now, but when he opened his mouth, those restless voices were reduced for a while.

"Which family of the Present Scriptures are you a disciple of? Why do you always hinder us ancient scripture disciples from doing things everywhere? The man shouted at once.

Yang Ming smiled when he heard this, this person is really well versed in the way of rhythm.

However, he was indifferent, and replied, "Yang Ming." ”

When the name came out, the man's face changed suddenly, and there was a sudden agitation at the scene, and it was even more violent than just now.

Even the other people on the hill also looked at Yang Ming with excitement.

After Yang Ming killed Wang Fu, he became a rookie scholar, and then apprenticed to Zheng Xuan, who was requisitioned by the Son of Heaven bus, and now he is a leader in Luoyang scholars!

The previous wedding between him and Wang Yi caused a sensation in Luoyang, which is the most intuitive embodiment.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Yang Ming stretched out his hand and made a gesture of calmness, and the scene quickly quieted down.

This pomp and circumstance is unmatched.

After the scene was quiet, Yang Ming looked at the man and said slowly: "You call yourself a disciple of the ancient scriptures, but I don't know which great Confucian of the ancient scriptures you studied from?" ”

He asked, and everyone looked at the person who had spoken before.

Xun Yu and Wang Xiu glanced at each other, and they both understood what Yang Ming wanted.

It is very likely that these people in front of him are not disciples of the ancient scriptures, and Yang Ming wants to debunk their identities on the spot.
