Since Emperor Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty sacrificed three animals to Confucius, pigs, cattle and sheep, the world has officially determined that Confucian Confucianism is the national culture, and officially affirmed the status of Confucius as the 'teacher of the emperor'.

From that time to the present, it is not a new thing to worship Confucius in the world, from the central to the locality, as long as there are a few scholars, out of one or two Jinshi states and counties, most of them have built Confucian temples, in the time of the Zhenzong Dynasty of this dynasty, there are more than 360 temples in the world......

That's it, still not counting the number of Liaoxia and other countries.

Naturally, the names of various places are also different, Confucius Temple, Holy Temple, Ancestor Temple...... But the most commonly used name is still the officially recognized 'Temple of Literature'.

The incense of this temple of literature, there is no temple in the world can compare with it, this is actually normal, after all, into other temples, most of them are seeking wealth and luck and marriage, and you have to worship the right god and offer the right Bodhisattva.

The Temple of Literature is different, it manages everything; As long as you are an official, you will have everything you need for good fortune, and if you want to be an official, you must first worship under the door of the Confucian sage, and if you worship under the door of the Confucian sage, this Confucian Temple must come.

And the people worshiped in the temple, except for Confucius, no matter what ten philosophers and seventy-two sages, all of them are Confucian people, and it is not impossible for other people to want to enter, unless you are a great Confucian, recognized as a great Confucian, such as Lu Zhen, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, or Zuo Qiu Ming, who wrote "Spring and Autumn", and for example, there are many questions that often ask Mencius this and that, which led to his dialogue with Mencius being recorded.

Zhao Guanjia was in front of the Min Zi Temple, one of the ten philosophers of the Confucian Temple, in front of the Temple of Literature today, shouting loudly to invite people into the temple, even if it is not without precedent, but what do you say about inviting people out...... The people in this temple have always been increasing unabated, and he is afraid that he is not crazy!

A madman is not terrible, but what is terrible is that this madman has the power to direct sentient beings!

And looking at the emperor's appearance, it is self-evident who the sage he wants to use to open the knife is...... In addition to Minzi, the spiritual pillar of Suzhou, who else can there be!

As soon as Liu Bang finished saying what he said just now, he stopped, looking like he was drinking tea, but his eyes didn't rest, he swept around, and looked at all the expressions of the people who came today.

Huang Yanjie is indeed very caring, almost with his own strength to change Liu Bang's stereotype of the eunuchs, whenever the emperor's eyes fall on whom, the old eunuch immediately understands, and then begins to introduce it in a low voice.

"The official family, that is the patriarch of the Min family, there is a Min Xian village fifty miles away, and it is said that all of them are the descendants of Min Zi."

"That is a Fang member from Suzhou, I heard that he made a fortune by raising foxes, and his family's leather business has been done in Jinguo."

"That is the local patriarch of the Xiang clan, and it is said that he is a descendant of King Xiang......"

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Bang frowned:

"Xiang Yu? Does he have descendants? ”

The old eunuch had done his homework all night beforehand, and he knew a lot about people with heads and faces, and at this time he replied confidently:

"It's really impossible to find out, but the place where King Xiang committed suicide seems to be nearby...... This vein probably appeared from the Jin Dynasty, and hundreds of years have passed, even if it is fake, it is already true. ”

Liu Bang lowered his head and thought for a while, and finally said with certainty:

"That's not it, Xiang Yu died in Lingbi, most of the family pretended to be misremembered, and ran to this Suzhou, more than a hundred miles away."

"Besides, when the kid died, he was only followed by a few horses, where can there be any descendants, if he has descendants, can Lao Tzu know?"

Huang Yanjie smiled and squeezed into a chrysanthemum: "The official family is talented, and even knows these things so clearly." ”

Putting his heart back in his stomach, Liu Bang felt that he was a little surprised, this is not Han Chu's year, even if it is really Xiang Yu's descendant, what does it matter?

Thinking so, his eyes began to sweep again, swept over one, and Huang Yanjie introduced one, and after a circle, he could be regarded as having some numbers in his heart.

The old eunuch is very caring, and he really manages to deal with it freely, if he doesn't know, I'm afraid he will think that he is a local official in charge of household registration!

Just when Huang Yanjie was happy that he had done an errand, he saw that the emperor's eyes stopped on the right, and he looked over and couldn't help but sigh a little.

Seeing that the emperor not only did not move, but even seemed to be settled, not to mention that the hand holding the tea bowl froze in mid-air, and even forgot to blink his eyes...... Seeing that someone had already noticed, many people looked towards the emperor's eyes, and for a while, everyone's eyes on the scene fell on the right side of the crowd.

"Official, official......"

Called softly twice, but the emperor didn't even give him the slightest reaction, Huang Yanjie was thinking about what to do, but he didn't dare to pat the emperor on the shoulder, and when he was in a hurry to sweat profusely, he saw that the emperor finally came back to his senses.

When the old eunuch looked at the right side again, it turned out that someone had blocked the official's view, and he patted his chest happily, and couldn't help but thank the person who came in his heart-

Taiwei Zhang, he is really a nobleman!

Zhang Jun was originally in charge of guarding outside, after all, the emperor called so many people to come, who knows if there was some mess inside, if it wasn't for the news from the barracks, he wouldn't want to squeeze in, after all, he has never been interested in the affairs of these scholars.

"Official!"

Maybe he slept well last night, maybe maybe a certain knot in his heart was opened, anyway, after Yan suddenly died, this person was like a fool, talking or something very angry, he didn't notice the emperor's expression of wanting to fan him with his hand, he walked to the emperor by himself, bowed down and said:

"The scholar ran away."

Liu Bang calmed down and did not answer him, but arranged Huang Yanjie first:

"That girl, do you know where to go?"

Huang Yanjie shook his head, he only paid attention to the person worth noting, a woman, it was indeed not in his work plan.

Taiwei Zhang looked back: "Which little lady does the official family have a crush on?!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the scene immediately burst into an uproar, whispering endlessly, and the girl who was standing on the right side and sucked Liu Bang's soul away, also immediately panicked, if it wasn't for the people standing behind her, she would definitely turn around and leave now, but now she just blushed and lowered her head.

Zhang Jun's favorite thing is the matter between men and women, whether it is a handsome scholar or a pretty prostitute, whether it is a Lalang match or a fairy match, whether it is underground or in bed, not to mention that this is the emperor and a woman, he immediately became interested, just turned around and wanted to ask the emperor to understand, he can do this errand for Zhao Guan's family, but he felt that he was hit on the head, and he was stunned in place.

"Dog, if you dare to say more, you will be castrated!"

Liu Bang said to Huang Yanjie again: "Go and pay attention to it, and invite her to drink tea in a while." ”

The old eunuch took the order and went, leaving only Zhang Jun, who was a little aggrieved, standing in front of the emperor.

"You'd better distinguish the occasion when you kid speak! It's still so indecent at an old age, it's really an old man! ”

"The official family is a lesson."

"Which scholar ran away?"

"It's the scholar who doesn't eat or drink."

"What scholar doesn't eat or drink?"

Zhang Jun paused: "It's the scholar who said that you are a faint king." ”

"Oh," Liu Bang finally remembered, "Yu Yunwen, just run, let's run, individuals have their own way of living, and there is no need to ask someone to chase them." ”

Zhang Jun obediently stepped aside, not daring to say anything more; Liu Bang saw that Huang Yanjie had already brought someone over, so he put the tea bowl aside, and then got down to business.

"Who is qualified to enter this Temple of Literature, is qualified to enjoy this eternal incense, this matter is not a decision I made at will, but how many emperors have died throughout the ages, how many masters have changed in this country, even the emperor can be changed, and these saints in the temple can naturally be changed."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but scold, he was deceived by that kid from Uncle Sun Tong.

At that time, the world was decided, he ordered Xiao He Ci to decree, Han Xin to apply military law, Zhang Cang to set the regulations, uncle and grandson to make etiquette, and Lu Jia to create a new language. At that time, Shusun Tong said very well, everything is for your sake, and everything within the rules is to make the people of the world forever submit to your family's control, and what governs the world has to be their Confucianism.

If it weren't for his skillful tongue reed, where would Liu Bang be willing to sacrifice Confucius, to be honest, he would rather go to worship Qin Shi Huang.

Now it seems that Confucianism is indeed suitable for governing the country, and the right dog is about to climb to the imperial power to shit, the country can be destroyed, but Confucianism will not die, no matter what Han and Tang Dynasties you are, what Jurchen Khitan is your party, and you are in the north and south,

As long as it's next to the point, I've learned this set.

This is basically the same as what Shusun Tong said at that time, but the biggest discrepancy is that the beneficiary became him and his Confucian, not the emperor, let alone the Liu family. It's just that now that the wood is in the boat, even if he digs his uncle and grandson out of the soil, it won't change anything, and to a certain extent, he just didn't make it clear and didn't tell a lie.

It's even possible that even he didn't think of it.

"How to change? Confucius said that if you are a threesome, you must have a teacher, which means that no one is perfect, no matter how powerful you are, you will always be inferior to others. ”

"He said so, so let's naturally choose virtuous people to go in...... Naturally, it is not that the people in it are not virtuous, but there may be more virtuous people who are more suitable than them. ”

"Then, I will mention three people first, and you will see who will replace you, and they will all say, it's okay, I called you here today, just to brainstorm."

As he spoke, his left and right eyes began to glance again:

"Zhang Zifang!"

As soon as these words came out, they immediately caused some uproar.

This is also expected by him, after all, it is easy to keep people in the status quo, and it is difficult to make people accept new things.

"You," he said, pointing to an old man in the crowd who looked older, "the old man who is half an inch apart, come out!" ”

This person is a local teacher, a native of Suzhou, and it is said that he is a disciple of a famous family, but he did not pass the Jinshi examination later, so he came back and set up a school.

Although the old man doesn't like this emperor either, this kind of thing in Dingwen Temple is a big deal after all, and if he doesn't get it right, his name will have to be added to the history books, which is undoubtedly a great opportunity for a person like him.

What's more, no matter how much you don't like it, people are also emperors, and what to do, he can't say much.

At this time, he stood up and saluted the emperor, but there was nothing wrong with the old man's posture:

"Your Majesty, I don't know what to call the little people?"

Liu Bang picked up the tea bowl again, and when he came out of Lin'an, he could no longer drink the bitter Dali tea, but the tea on the two Huai sides had a different flavor, fresh and tender.

"You seem to have some opinions about Zhang Zifang's entry into the Temple of Literature, and your expression is the most inadequate, what's the matter, do you think he is not worthy?"

The old man listened to the emperor's words, there was no respect between his words, and he remembered all kinds of rumors about this Zhao official's family, and his heartbeat immediately accelerated at this time, and he said again and again:

"The official family is clear, the prince of the ovary is the first phase of the ages, how dare the students have blasphemy!"

"Then why are you putting on an unhappy face?"

The old man swallowed his throat and said:

"Didn't the official family forget that Zifang Gong is already in the deputy shrine of King Wucheng...... Since you have entered the Wu Temple, how can you enter the Temple of Literature? ”

And although Zifang Gong has great talents, he is more visible in his strategy and martial arts, and he has not seen his articles...... And Zifang Gong has devoted himself to the Tao in his later years, which is not very suitable, otherwise, can Zhuge Wuhou Yan do it? ”

Liu Bang touched his chin and looked thoughtful:

"That's right!"

The old man was very happy when he saw the emperor like this, and he could imagine that when people talked about this matter in the future, he said that he tried his best to disride the emperor's opinion, blocked Zhang Liang from the outside of the Confucian Temple, and maintained the authority, purity, and sacredness of the Confucian Temple.

It's a great achievement!

But the emperor's next words almost made him fall to the ground.

"Zhuge Liang is okay, I almost forgot about him...... Fortunately, you reminded me, be rewarded, be rewarded! ”

"Since this person has put forward his opinion, let's listen to it, Zhang Liang and Zhuge Liang will enjoy the two temples of civil and military together from today on!"

As he spoke, he asked Zhang Jun in a low voice:

"What is a martial temple? Why haven't you heard anyone talk about it? ”

Taiwei Zhang only knows that there is this place, and occasionally goes to sacrifice, but who are the people in it, where does he remember it.

So he just shook his head: "The minister doesn't know very well."

"Hmm", Liu Bang nodded, seeing that the old man still wanted to speak, he didn't give him this opportunity directly, but quickly threw out his other two candidates.

"Add Xiao He, add Han Xin, who is in favor and who is against?"

The old gentleman who taught almost vomited blood, and persuaded the emperor to fail, but added an extra Zhuge Liang to it.

When people talk about it in the future, then he will be in big trouble!

So he hurriedly stood up: "Xiaomin has something to say, Xiaomin has something to say!" ”

Liu Bang waved his hand, and Yang Yizhong, who had been waiting for a long time, stepped forward and grabbed the old man's shoulder:

"No, you don't."

The commander of the front division of the palace looked at him and said expressionlessly.
