Lu Tianshi said: "Let me ask you, are the children of the high families of the family scholars?" ”

"Of course." Li Longji nodded and said, "The reason why the family masters became the family masters is because they were the first to master knowledge and became scholars than the Han family. ”

Lu Tianshi said: "They were the first to master knowledge and become scholars, and then began to monopolize knowledge? ”

"Monopoly knowledge? Really, at least before the Sui Dynasty. Li Longji thought so, "It's just that the price of paper has been greatly reduced since the Sui Dynasty, and the price of paper has been further reduced after the Sui Dynasty in the Tang Dynasty, so the children of the poor family can also afford to read, and the high-ranking families can no longer monopolize knowledge as before." ”

Lu Tianshi said: "So they changed to another way of playing, and instead began to monopolize the advancement level of scholars. ”

"That's it." Li Longji said, "Through marriage and other means, the family not only controlled the imperial examination, but also further controlled the recommendation and recommendation channels of officials. ”

Lu Tianshi said: "But they are still scholars after all. ”

Li Longji said: "Lu Tianshi's words seem to have an unfinished meaning? ”

Lu Tianshi said: "As long as they admit that they are scholars, it will be easy to do." ”

After waiting for a while, Lu Tianshi said again: "Their ancestor will tell them that knowledge should not be monopolized, and the rank of officials should not be monopolized, I want to see if they have the courage to betray their teachers and abandon their ancestors!" ”

"Patriarch?" Li Longji struck and said, "Lu Tianshi is talking about the Holy Ancestor? ”

"Yes, you guessed it." Lu Tianshi said happily, "It's Confucius. ”

"Did Confucius become an immortal?" Li Longji's eyes became eager.

"Nonsense." Lu Tianshi didn't have a good breath, "A great Confucian like Confucius can't become an immortal, who will become an immortal?" ”

At this moment, Li Long couldn't hold back any longer, and directly bowed down to Lu Tianshi, and pleaded: "Please ask Lu Tianshi to teach me the art of immortal immortal immortality, if I become an immortal, I will definitely remember Lu Tianshi's supreme kindness forever." ”

"Want to learn the art of immortal immortality?" Lu Tianshi said abruptly, "You also want to live forever?" ”

Li Longji said without blushing: "Of course I also want to live forever, but who doesn't want to live forever?" ”

"You're really greedy." Lu Tianshi said abruptly, "After being the emperor for forty-two years, it's not enough to enjoy the glory, wealth and beauty of the world, and you want to live forever? Do you want to take all the good things in the world? ”

"This ......" Li Longji was a little embarrassed, but soon said cheekily, "Please Heavenly Master to fulfill it." ”

"It won't work out." Lu Tianshi said, "Immortality is not for everyone, only those who have great merit, great chance, and great luck can achieve immortality. ”

"Lack of merit?" Li Longji was unconvinced, "My martial arts are by no means under Emperor Taizong's martial arts, nor are they lost to the first emperor of the Six Kingdoms, how can they lack merit?" ”

Lu Tianshi snorted: "Wenzhi martial arts is not merit, Li Shimin, Liu Che and Ying Zheng are all good emperors, but they have killed too many living beings, and the merit loss is serious, so they cannot live forever, and the living beings who died because of you Li Longji are not under the three of them, so you Li Longji are also not immortal." ”

Li Longji hurriedly said: "However, my chance is far better than theirs, none of them met the immortals, but I met the Heavenly Master, please ask the Heavenly Immortals to teach me the art of immortality, I can exchange everything in the world." ”

This is the opportunity, and Li Longji definitely doesn't want to miss it easily.

However, the reality is cruel, and Lu Tianshi bluntly refused.

"How do you know that Ying Zheng, Liu Che and your great-grandfather have never met immortals?"

"Don't think about immortality, it's impossible for you Li Longji to live forever."

"If you start cultivating your self-cultivation from now on, you will have at least twenty years to live."

After a pause, Lu Tianshi said again: "If you are still addicted to wine and don't know how to restrain yourself, you won't live for ten years." ”

"Ten years? There are only ten years left? Li Longji was stunned when he heard this, but he still can't live forever after all?

"Wait, wait for this Heavenly Master to cast a spell and invite Confucius down from the Heavenly Realm." Lu Tianshi advised, "During this time, don't let people enter the side hall to interrupt this Heavenly Master's practice. ”

When Li Longji heard this, he hurriedly cheered up his spiritual protector.

At the same time, there was also a hint of luck in my heart.

If you can devout your teacher, you may be able to move the heavenly master.

On the other side, Lu Tianshi has already started casting spells, oh no, it's starting to edit and make videos.

Lu Xiaoning chose a video from the fifth issue of "China in the Classics", and then accompanied it with a subtitle he wanted, as for whether the mouth shape can be matched, it doesn't matter.

……

In the three-story hall of Xingqing Palace, the princes and grandsons and civil officials and military generals are waiting.

Among them, Yang Guozhong was the most anxious, because he knew that this secret conversation between the saint and Lu Tianshi would not only determine whether he could continue to serve as the right minister, but also his life.

The crown prince Li Heng was not worried at this time, because Lu Tianshi had already made his words very clear.

Although his Li Heng's ability is very mediocre, other princes are not much better than him.

Therefore, the saint may not be willing to change the crown prince, after all, it is not a trivial matter to abolish the crown prince.

Just when the civil and military people were talking to each other and whispering, the door of the side hall suddenly opened.

It's just that the scene that happened next was somewhat unexpected by everyone, the door of the temple opened, and the first person to come out of it was neither a saint nor a Lu Tianshi, but a gray-haired old man.

The old man is a scholar in the pre-Qin period.

Wei Jiansu, Cen Shen, Gao Shi and other scholars couldn't help but widen their eyes.

This old man looked a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere? But I don't think I've seen it again.

At this time, the saint followed out of the side hall and shouted: "The holy ancestor is in front of you, why don't you kneel down to worship the ancestor as a scholar?" ”

Extremely? This person is the Holy Teacher?

Wei Jiansu, Cen Shen, Gao Shen and other officials were all stunned.

It's no wonder that it looks familiar, and at this time I remembered that it was somewhat similar to the statue of the Holy Master hanging in the private school.

At that moment, the civil officials who were born as scholars led by Wei Jiansu paid their respects one after another, and sang in their mouths: "The student so-and-so visited the Holy Teacher, and the Holy Master is healthy." ”

Those princes, grandsons, and generals also knelt down one after another.

Yang Guozhong's eyes rolled, and he knelt down in the hall as well.

Although I, Yang Guozhong, was born in the market, I also went to a private school, so I can be regarded as a student of the Holy Master.

"Excuse me, get up with me." Confucius returned the salute and said with emotion, "It's only been a few days in the sky, and more than a thousand years have passed in the world, and they are already the Tang Dynasty." ”

Wei Jiansu and other officials are envious, it is good to be able to live forever.

Confucius sighed and said, "Which one is Wei Jiansu?" ”

Wei Jiansu hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said, "Student Wei Jiansu pays homage to the Holy Master. ”

"You're Wei Jiansu?" Confucius's gaze seemed to fall on Wei Jiansu, and he seemed to be unfocused, and said, "Speaking of which, you are also a Jinshi and the first born, and you can be called a model for scholars in the world, but since you embarked on your official career, especially after entering the political hall as the prime minister, what you have done has really made the old man feel extremely disappointed." ”

Hearing this, the cold sweat on Wei Jiansu's forehead flowed down.

This sentence of the Holy Master's evaluation, he really can't afford it.

In the future, when he dies, it is likely that this evaluation will be engraved on his epitaph.

At that moment, Wei Jiansu said in a cold sweat: "Please ask the Holy Master to guide you." ”

Confucius said: "The old man has a long-cherished wish, one is the old man's peace, the second is the belief of friends, and the third is the young one's arms, and before becoming an immortal, he has also told Ziyuan, Zilu, etc., all my Confucian disciples, should practice it, now the millennium has passed, and the old man's three long-cherished wishes have not been realized. ”

"Students are incompetent." Wei Jiansu didn't dare to defend himself, so he could only honestly admit his mistakes.

Confucius said: "The old man An Zhi and his friends believe in it alone, and the little Huaizhi has not been implemented, it is true that it should not be, you are a Confucian disciple, you should know that the old man admires the benevolent and loves people the most, why do you want to prevent the poor students from passing the imperial examination to seek advancement?" ”

"Holy Teacher, this fact has never been seen."

Everything else can be recognized, but Wei Jiansu never dared to admit it.

Cen Shen and Gao Shi looked at each other, the Holy Master is here to ask about the sin.

ps: There is something to do in the morning, just this one more, see if you can make up for it in the evening.
