Sima Yan used to yearn for the life of celebrities.

But when Cao Chao took him to really integrate into these celebrity circles, Sima Yan was a little disappointed.

This circle is not as beautiful as he thought, especially the matter of debate, which is obscure and difficult to understand, and for those who don't understand, it is simply torment.

Although Sima Yan didn't like to discuss scriptures, he still arrived here on time, because this incident really brought him benefits.

With the promotion of the content of the debate that day, the banquet of the East Hall suddenly became famous in Luoyang.

In the past few days, there have been too many celebrities and gentlemen who have come to meet Sima Yan and want to get tickets for the Dongtang banquet, and some of them have even come from the surrounding states and counties to make a special trip to meet them.

Sima Yan rose quickly and became famous, and celebrities endorsed him, as if he had become a future star in the celebrity circle.

Not long ago, his younger brother Sima You's reputation was still greater than him, but now, the fame of the two sides is directly unequal.

With the assistance of Cao Chao, although Sima Yan did not have his own power, he had already gained a very good reputation, and he was recognized by the ministers in disguise.

Sima Yan, who was holding a ticket for the East Hall Banquet, was no longer worried about his young brother.

Although this incident has brought benefits, Sima Yan can't be as chic and comfortable as before.

Looking at the celebrities and gentlemen with different expressions around him, and looking at the slightly flattering smiles when they looked at him, the aura of these celebrities in Sima Yan's heart unconsciously weakened a lot.

It turns out that celebrities and celebrities will also come to please others, and it turns out that they also want to get ahead, and they don't seem to be as noble as they think.

Zhong Hui looked at the people who were almost here, and then looked at Cao Chao with a smile.

He thought of himself as the host of this banquet.

"Your Majesty, I heard that you had previously summoned all the scattered horsemen to talk about things that were just for the classics?"

Zhong Hui's words directly ignited the slightly silent atmosphere.

The celebrities looked at the emperor in astonishment, and talked to each other, and the scene suddenly became noisy.

Only the original scattered riders knew about this matter, and these celebrities still didn't know about it.

It can be seen that some of these celebrities are afraid, some are happy, and some are uneasy.

If the controversy over scripture and learning is not handled well, it will lead to very bad consequences.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, the ministers were divided into two factions, the modern literary school and the ancient literary school, to what extent did their struggle reach? But whatever is supported by the present text, the ancient text must be opposed, but whatever is opposed by the present text, the ancient text must be supported.

has reached such an outrageous point, even if it is clear in my heart that the other party's idea is correct, but for the sake of the classic dispute, it is necessary to oppose it.

There was a disaster in Liangzhou, and Gu Wen wanted to go to the disaster relief, but Jin Wen opposed it, and Jin Wen wanted to appoint officials, but Gu Wen opposed it

And today's situation is even more complicated than at the beginning, not only ancient and modern literature, but also the rise of metaphysics, and all factions have a vague intention of raising their heads.

Those ministers who have already controlled the discourse school are naturally opposed, and the celebrities who do not yet have the discourse school are of course happy.

Cao Chao was not surprised at all, those people like Gao Guang, Wang Shen, and Pei Xiu in the scattered horses, it was strange that Sima Zhao and Zhong Hui and others didn't know about it.

All he wants is to keep them informed.

He said with a straight face and solemnly: "There is such a thing, what advice does Zhong Jun have?" ”

Zhong Hui laughed, "Your Majesty is really talented! ”

"Standing up for righteousness, righteousness before righteousness, for classic justice, Your Majesty is right! That's what a wise king should pay attention to! ”

"Your Majesty's talent is unique through the ages!"

The celebrities were silent at the moment, they looked at Zhonghui quietly, and they didn't understand what this guy wanted to do.

Cao Chao forcibly endured the ecstasy in his heart and said, "Zhong Jun has a good reputation. ”

Zhong Hui said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it's not too famous, Your Majesty's plan is really outstanding, the minister has persuaded the general, asking him to agree with your idea, Your Majesty don't worry, this matter, we will definitely handle it, perhaps, it will be handled by the minister himself!" ”

As soon as Zhong Hui spoke, he snatched the dominance from Cao Chao's hands.

Wang Xiang frowned.

Cao Chao suddenly laughed.

Zhong Hui didn't see the expression he wanted to see from Cao Chao's face, whether it was loss or annoyance, he didn't see it.

But he is not in a hurry, sooner or later he can see it.

He asked, "Why is Your Majesty laughing?" ”

Cao Chao said very seriously: "Zhong Jun, you don't know anything. ”

"When I put forward this idea that day, Zheng Xiaotong tried his best to dissuade me, and told me about the turmoil at the end of the Han Dynasty, telling me not to do this."

"I thought about it again and again, and only then did I understand that this matter is not as simple as I thought, many classics, regardless of whether they are superior or inferior, how can I determine the advantages and disadvantages for them?"

"I have given up such an idea a long time ago, and I ask Zhong Jun not to be impatient, this matter will not work."

Cao Chao shook his head and said.

Zhong Hui narrowed his eyes, "Whether it will work or not, you have to do it to know." ”

Cao Chao never thought of being able to participate in the classic controversy, there are too many things involved in this thing, and it is too complicated, even if he is the identity of the emperor, he can be a referee and let the subordinates fight for themselves, but once it is not handled properly, it will cause more trouble.

And the reason why Cao Chao proposed it, in addition to sending good fortune to the general, the main purpose was to make Zhong Hui take action.

With Zhong Hui's unseen character, if he knew about this matter, he would probably take it over himself.

Well, do you really think you're an immortal? Are you a contestant and want to be a judge? Let's see if the rest of the contestants will obey you!

Not to mention Zhong Hui, it is Sima Zhao, as long as he has not ascended the throne, then there is absolutely no possibility of being a referee!

Zhong Hui really took over, which is simply the biggest good thing for Cao Chao.

In the future, this classic dispute will entangle Zhong Hui to the death, will exacerbate the contradictions among the ministers, and force the ministers to turn against the Sima family.

At this time, Wang Xiang was thoughtful, he looked at Zhong Hui, then at Cao Chao, and then shook his head.

Zhong Shiji's talent is extraordinary, but it's a pity that this character

Cao Chao deliberately said in a very exaggerated tone: "How can Zhong Jun do such a tedious thing?" ”

Wang Xiang shook his head again, Fang Cai's performance was okay, but now it was a little too hard, Zhong Hui was not a fool, he couldn't see such an obvious agitation method? ?

Alas, Your Majesty is still too young, and this sentence exposes the original idea, I am afraid that I will be seen through by the Zhong Club.

Sure enough, Zhong Hui's face suddenly changed.

Such a simple and crude method of agitation seems to be Cao Chao deliberately telling Zhong Hui that his previous method was to fish and let you be fooled and take the initiative to handle this matter.

And Cao Chao really thought so, he just wanted to inform Zhong Hui of this.

Zhong Hui suddenly threw his head back and laughed.

"Your Majesty, the place where the bird's nest can't fly is just a place behind Kunpeng."

Cao Chao knows!

With Zhong Hui's character, he will never admit that he is in the trap, and blowing himself up at this moment will not only not make him change his mind, but will also make him more determined in his thoughts and will not give up easily.

If he gave up, wouldn't it mean that he Zhong Shiji was deceived by the emperor?

The dignified Zhong Shiji, an immortal talent, how can he be deceived?

Wang Xiang looked at Zhong Hui in astonishment, and for a moment, his heart cleared the clouds and saw the sun, and his mouth suddenly opened.

Is it the radical method hidden in the radical method?

Awesome!

Wang Xiang cleared his throat and looked at many celebrities, he said seriously: "Everyone, the old man didn't want to come today, the old man is old, this kind of banquet is for talents, not a place for the old man to come." ”

"It's just that I heard that Your Majesty is selling the classics and debating with the sages, and I am really frightened, so I came here to ask the kings for their guilt."

Wang Xiang was about to bow immediately, but everyone hurriedly got up, but they didn't dare to accept it.

Cao Chao explained with a wry smile: "You don't know, when the teacher taught me the scriptures, he warned many times not to debate, not to show off, that day to hold a banquet, I saw you debating, I really can't help the teacher to learn, very angry, today insisted on coming." ”

Sima Yan asked in surprise, "Was it taught by the prince?" But I've heard that the prince is not good at arguing the Bible."

The rest of the celebrities also looked at them with some suspicion.

Wang Xiang said seriously: "It's really not good at it, it's all Your Majesty's high talent and fast mastery."

Cao Chao hurriedly said: "Teacher, don't say that again, I know that the teacher is humble, but I can't be so prestigious, my teacher just doesn't like to debate, he learned that I learned Taixuan, so he used this scripture as the foundation, and taught me the knowledge I said that day, all of which I learned from the teacher."

Sima Yan was shocked, "I see! ”

Wang Xiang said helplessly: "The old man thinks that this study of the scriptures is to clarify right and wrong, to know the shortcomings, and to rule the world, but not to compete for superiority, the old man does not like to debate, so he is not willing to let his disciples debate."

Wang Rong hurriedly said: "That's the case, when I was young, my eldest father taught me and ordered me to learn the scriptures, but I was not allowed to say more to the outside world."

Everyone was a little surprised, and a few people who didn't believe it at the beginning were actually a little shaken at this moment.

Liu Ling couldn't help but praise: "The prince is talented, the prince is virtuous!" ”

Wang Xiang said calmly: "I'll leave first, I can't disturb your banquet." ”

He looked at Cao Chao and admonished: "Don't show off, don't argue." ”

Cao Chao hurriedly lowered his head, "Only." ”

Although everyone stayed, Wang Xiang still left here, after he left, the celebrities and scholars immediately started a debate, Cao Chao according to Wang Xiang's instructions, did not participate, just bowed his head to observe.

"Your Majesty."

At this moment, Ji Kang suddenly sat next to Cao Chao.
