When the four Legalists gathered together, they almost quarreled the Xuanshi Hall.
In the Taixue, many scholars and great masters gathered around the world.
Among these people, you can find any school of thought, and the quarrels in the Taixue can also be imagined to have reached a level. At that time, even Xunzi could not suppress the school of thought.
It is a bit difficult to fight for Fu Qiubo to imitate his teacher to suppress the sects.
Fortunately, their quarrels are just about verbal debates and they dare not make things worse. After all, there is a Legalist and Legal faction who is eyeing them, just waiting to use these to gain reputation. These people are all famous in China.
The masters and disciples are numerous. Although they may not be as good as the prince's level when they are beaten, they are more influential than others. This is a god-given opportunity for Zhang Shizhi.
Fu Qiubo summoned several of his great men and gathered in his study.
Although Fu Qiubo is a Confucian master, he has the bonus of the Imperial Academy. Even those who hate him cannot give him face. Everyone knows that this guy is close to His Majesty. If he offended him, he will be fine.
He, he said a few bad things to His Majesty, and they could bear it.
Fu Qiubo is quite polite. He did not personally participate in these debates. At most, he was just a formality for His Majesty. He was very polite to everyone. Even if he was to the Mo family and the farmer family, he could treat him kindly.
, did not use his identity to suppress them.
Everyone noticed that beside Fu Qiubo, there was a strange scholar sitting, who was not old and looked like an official in the temple.
Fu Qiubo introduced: "This Sima Jun is an official in the Grand Historian. Your Majesty knows that you are arguing in the Imperial Academy and specially sent him to record the debate's words and deeds..."
When everyone heard this, they no longer looked stern and met Sima Xi.
As Chang Liu said, these people are not so afraid of threats by force. They care more about their reputation and even the interests of their schools. Sima Xi came, which is a good thing for them, which shows that they
The matter has been recognized by His Majesty and has reached the level of being recorded for future generations to watch.
This is not only useful to their reputation, but also to the school from a general perspective.
If they could defeat other schools in front of Sima Xi, then future generations would naturally know which school they should study.
Therefore, except for a few stubborn people from the farm, everyone from other schools was still quite polite to him.
When Sima Xi found out the right time, he looked at Fu Qiubo and said, "Actually, I came here this time not just to record this incident. The Grand Historian is responsible for sorting out the imperial palace books. His Majesty was very happy when he heard that the wise men came to Chang'an.
, so I sent me to come and ask all the great sages, if there is a collection of books at home, I can lend them to me for copying. This is a good thing that will benefit the world..."
Fu Qiubo laughed, "So that's the case. I happen to have a few collections of books. Please copy them... You can return them to me after copying them."
"Thank you, Mr. Fuqiu!!"
Sima Xi hurriedly thanked him and said, "Your Majesty's request for books is a major event that can be recorded in historical books. Later generations will definitely imitate your virtues."
The two of them started acting here, and everyone here was as clear as a mirror, and none of them were stupid.
They didn't know Sima Xi's intentions. Who is Fu Qiubo? How could anyone who praises His Majesty all day long have books that he didn't offer to His Majesty? He always wished he could write his own books on weekdays.
To offer it to Your Majesty, and combined with Sima Xi's words just now, this is a promise of benefits.
At this moment, as long as you present a book, you can gain a good reputation and leave a mark in history books.
Many people also thought about whether this matter was worth it or not.
Books are the core inheritance for many big families and even everyone. Only by relying on these books can they ensure the prosperity of their families and schools. Speaking of which, there are many schools in the pre-Qin period, and it is impossible to blame others for hiding their own private interests.
The wind prevailed, and the master could not teach his disciples with all his strength. He kept the most core things and brought them to the tombs, and finally made modern people dig out more classics than ancient people knew.
For big families, this is their guarantee of their career and the core of ensuring their family's competitiveness.
Of course I wouldn't trade it so easily.
At this moment, Fu Sheng stood up with a smile, and he said seriously: "Sima Jun, my father has a book called "Shangshu". However, there are some missing contents that only my father knows and understands.
Correct comment... My father is already a hundred years old and cannot rush to the road, but we are only a little uninformed and not enough to understand his knowledge... The copy of the book is not detailed here. If Sima Jun is willing, he can
Send someone to my house and ask my father to inform him of the oral transmission..."
Sima Xi didn't expect how easy this person could speak.
“Can you make a decision on this matter?”
"Hahaha, when I came, my father held my hand and asked me to dedicate this book to Emperor Yao..."
"Di Yao?"
Fu Sheng smiled and said, "Sima Jun doesn't know that although my father is old, he is happy about the world. He once said: To win the Ming and handsome, to be close to the nine tribes, to be harmonious with the nine tribes, to be harmonious with the people, to be clear and harmonious with all nations.
, Only Yao?"
Sima Xi was shocked and immediately took out his pen and ink, but he held back, wrote down the sentence, and then said, "I understand, thank you!"
Everyone here was shocked and gave it up. Could it be that this guy is also acting? Not like him?
Fu Sheng started, and also led three or four people to take the initiative to ask for a book.
Sima Xi was very excited. The collection of these people was indeed lost. Sima Xi yearned for a long time but never saw the treasures.
Sima Xi trembled his hands and thanked these people one by one.
And the rest of the people were silent at this moment, as if they had seen nothing.
After all, Sima Xi couldn't hold back her face to scare these people. His professional qualities could not allow him to do such a thing. Fu Qiubo looked at everyone, probably seeing Sima Xi's embarrassment and said with a smile; "Today
Some wise men offered books, and even more of Fu Gong's words. After Sima Jun returned, don't forget to record it... Please remember that at some time, we gathered in the Imperial Academy to discuss knowledge.
There are me, Fu Sheng, Zeng Sheng, Huang Sheng, and Mao Jun who have given their books."
As soon as these words were said, the faces of those people suddenly turned dark.
Good, you Fuchu Bo!
If such a record is recorded, what a moral thing will be when future generations see it? More than a dozen famous people with names gathered together, and five of them presented books. What about the others??
Isn't this a cheating person?
"No hurry... I actually have a collection of books at home..."
Sima Xi looked at Fu Qiubo gratefully, and then hurriedly thanked the everyone who wanted to offer the book.
Fu Qiubo smiled and said, "It just so happened that I have seen the most books I have given to Confucianism today, which is enough to prove that Confucianism is the school that truly cares about the world. Please tell Your Majesty truthfully after returning, I will give you Confucianism a book.
The Eight Divisions show their loyalty to Your Majesty. We are willing to contribute to the great cause of the country!!”
When he heard this, Mr. Huang couldn't sit still.
Fu Chubo once again proved that no matter anything, when he began to show an inclination, things would become out of control.
"I still have some books in my family... Huang Lao presented a total of eleven books. Please report to Your Majesty truthfully!"
"Haha, I suddenly remembered that my brother still has three books at home!"
At this moment, Sima Xi no longer borrowed books in a timid way, but these people surrounded Sima Xi and began to sell their own collection of books. Fortunately, these are all the people, not the rich family. If they were rich family, they probably wouldn't.
He cared about his reputation or the reputation of his school. However, the books of the rich and powerful people were collected in the palace, which were all the credits of a minister in the prison. Sima Xi was very happy and thanked them one by one.
Fu Qiubo continued to look at them with a smile.
Fu Sheng, who was sitting below, looked at him with admiration.
Not to mention anything else, just talk about this disciple. Xunzi's ability in this area is really amazing. You see, the people he taught are all more knowledgeable than the other and more powerful than the other.
"Thank you, Mr. Fuqiu! Thank you!!"
Sima Xi completely changed his view of this old man. In the past, Sima Xi always felt that this old man had no moral bottom line and was blindly boasting about His Majesty and had no integrity.
But today, this old man finally made Sima Xi understand what it means that your uncle will always be your uncle.
Seeing Sima Xi's respectful appearance, Fu Qiubo just smiled and said, "What Your Majesty wants to do is a great achievement that will last for thousands of years. How dare I not serve Your Majesty?"
Sima Xi then remembered something and looked at Fu Sheng's hand who had not left yet.
"Have your father really said that?"
As soon as this sentence came out, Fu Sheng was a little unhappy, "Do you think I am flattering and arranged my father's people to invite fame?"
Sima Xi hurriedly apologized and said, "I have always respected Fu Gong, but I didn't expect him to say such words."
Fu Sheng then said, "He said so... He had never commented on others before, and I was very curious and asked him how could he have such a high evaluation of His Majesty?"
"A Father said: He sat in the car and went to visit his friends in the next city, and he often heard the sounds of children laughing along the way."
"What is this answer?"
Sima Xi frowned, very puzzled.
He immediately looked at Fu Qiubo and asked, "You and Fu Gong are both famous scholars. Can you solve our doubts?"
Fu Qiubo pondered for a while, and smiled and stroked his long beard.
"What kind of king do you think His Majesty is?"
Sima Xi was silent for a moment and said, "I compare my virtue to my loyalty."
If Liu Chang or Chang'an wise men listen to this sentence, it is likely that they will not be able to understand it in the next life.
But Fu Qiubo and Fu Sheng immediately understood what Sima Xi meant. This was a conversation between Zigong and Confucius. Confucius said that a gentleman was more virtuous than Yuyan, and it mentioned loyalty. Confucius' explanation for this was: flaws do not conceal the merits.
Good will not hide the flaws, but loyalty will be.
The flaws do not conceal the merits. This is Sima Xi’s evaluation of Liu Chang as a king.
Fu Qiubo smiled and said, "You don't know what happened at the beginning, so you don't understand why Fu Gong said that... When various countries were conquering wars, they would arrest people for labor service for many years. The land tax was very heavy, and the people would
We have been working for a year, but we can't even keep the food for our lives. There are many people who starve to death everywhere. Years of war have left nine out of ten houses empty and hundreds of miles of uninhabited..."
"Later, Qin began to govern the world. They did not allow the people to go out at will. The people like livestock could only travel between houses and cultivated land, day and night, and there were no elderly people everywhere... The children had no clothes.
Wearing, hungry and crying all day... At this moment, Fu Gong can sit in the car, sway through the city gate, and go to the place he wants to go, without restrictions. His old friends are still alive, and along the way
Can you see the children laughing and playing... Isn't this the prosperous era under the rule of a king like Yao and Shun?"
Sima Xi nodded thoughtfully.
After returning from here, Sima Xi picked up the pen and thought for a long time before writing: "The emperor is in the world and passes through the beams, which is no different from afar. He eliminates slander, eliminates corporal punishment, rewards elders, collects loneliness, and educates all living beings.
....”
.........
"What??Di Yao?"
"This is a wise man!!"
Liu Chang became a little excited, and he couldn't wait to ask: "That Fusheng... No, where is Fugong? Let him come to see me quickly!"
Sima Xi said helplessly: "Your Majesty, this person is nearly a hundred years old, how can he drive to Chang'an?"
Liu Chang was even more surprised, "It turned out to be auspicious for the great man. No wonder he was so righteous!"
Sima Xi then told Liu Chang truthfully about Fu Gong's son's words. When he heard that he was going to send someone to study, Liu Chang naturally took the initiative.
"So that's it, let me go!"
"As Xunzi's disciple, I am not disappointed in studying the Shangshu with him!"
Sima Xi was shocked, "Your Majesty! No!!"
"Hmm??What's wrong?"
Sima Xi also knew that at this time, he would definitely not be able to tell the truth. He said, "Your Majesty, I heard that the Shangshu is very boring. This lecture will probably take several months to study and cannot do other things.
, I sit and study all day long, and I am worried that this will delay Your Majesty's major affairs..."
Liu Chang's ignited passion quickly subsided after hearing his words.
He doesn't like classes the most in his life.
"Let Yuan Ang learn for me!"
Sima Xi gave his own advice, "Your Majesty, Yuan Ang is young and I don't know how much he can learn. Maybe he can find a Confucian scholar with profound knowledge to study, such as Lu Gong, Jia Xiang and others, they can all go...
”
"No, Mr. Lu wants to organize official school affairs for me. As for Jia Sheng, Jia Sheng will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will learn this? What's more, he went to Fu Gong to study, so what happened to Zhao State?
Do it? Will you let King Zhao deal with it? Wouldn’t that mean the country will be destroyed?"
"But Your Majesty... Yuan Ang is young after all, and Fu Gong still has a lot of time. If Yuan Ang can't learn it, then wouldn't this be..."
"I said it, let Yuan Ang go! He has this ability!"
"But your Majesty..."
"Don't be ruthless! Do you know how Kuai Che died?!"
Sima Xi was stunned and shook his head seriously, "I don't know."
"He was constantly dissuading me after I issued an order and was cooked and killed by me! You should learn from history!"
Just as Sima Xi helped collect classics for Liu Chang, Yong'e finally ushered in the day of production.
Although he had experienced it twice, Chang Liu still seemed a little anxious.
Just because Yong'e's scream was extremely miserable.
Liu Chang couldn't help but tremble his hands.
Perhaps because he knew that Liu Chang was nervous, Fan Qing had been comforting him and told him not to worry.
With a cry, Liu Chang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon, the palace maid came out and asked His Majesty to come in.
Chang Liu hurried into the hall and saw two palace maids holding a child, with an extremely nervous and uneasy look on his face.
"Your Majesty... are twins."
"Ah??Male? or two men?"
Liu Chang had a bitter face and still stepped forward and looked at his two sons. However, Fan Qing was stunned at this moment and looked at the inner room worriedly. The palace maid blocked the door outside at this moment. After only a moment,
An imperial physician came hurriedly, his face was also very serious, and his hands were even trembling. Xia Wuqi glanced at the two identical children and couldn't help but sigh.
Looking at their serious faces and the tense atmosphere, Liu Chang was very puzzled.
“What is this for?”
"Where is Yong'e? How is she?"
"Your Majesty, don't worry, Concubine Yong is very good...just..."
Xia Wuqi asked everyone to leave, and whispered: "Your Majesty, twins are a sign of great danger!"
"If one son and one daughter are fine, Gemini, this is uneven yin and yang, and twins are yin, which will definitely hinder the country and will also be unfavorable to their parents... Two stars are from the sky, and two sons are there..."
"Bang~~~"
Before Xia Wuqi could finish his words, he flew out.
Fortunately, Liu Chang did not use his fist, but just pushed him. If he used his fist, he would be afraid that Xia Wuqi would be gone now.
He was thrown to the ground and hurriedly got up again, "I can do it..."
"fart!"
"If two sons are born together, can they disrupt my country and country? I have millions of men in armor, who can interfere with me?!"
"Come here, go and find the priests from Shangfang Mansion!!!"
Liu Chang asked the palace maid to take the children to rest, and asked Cao Shu and Fan Qing to accompany Yong'e, but he waited.
Soon, a group of alchemists led by Gongsun Chen appeared in front of Liu Chang.
Liu Chang looked at them coldly with a stern face, and asked loudly: "What does this mean when my concubine gave birth to Gemini?! Is it bad or good?!"
This group of alchemists were forcibly brought here by the soldiers. At this moment, when he heard Liu Chang's inquiry, he had not yet reacted. Someone was about to speak, when Gongsun Chen grabbed him and said in surprise: "Your Majesty! Happy! This
It's a great joy!!"
"Oh? What did the thief say that it was hindering the country? How did you say it was auspicious?"
"Your Majesty, in the past, there were no two saints in the world, so twins were not auspicious, and only one of them could survive..."
"But now, the Han Dynasty has two holy emperors... The Supreme Emperor has great merits, and Your Majesty is even more so. Gemini came from heaven and there are two holy saints in the world. Isn't this God rewarding brothers with harmonious and prosperous times? Your Majesty is Yang, the Supreme Emperor
This is even more so, the previous great man had two yangs, and now there are two yins. This is the complementary yin and yang, which is a blessing for the whole world! Congratulations to Your Majesty! Congratulations to Your Majesty!!"
Gongsun Chen was still a little trembling and stuttering at first, but the more he spoke, the more he became smoother and his tone gradually became appraisal. Even he believed it himself, that's what happened.
Hearing his explanation, Liu Chang laughed.
"Very good, with such auspiciousness, everyone will celebrate together!"
ps: I have consulted a lot of information. The earliest time I regard twins as unlucky, it seems that the exact source of the Han Dynasty was from the Han Dynasty. It was probably already there before, but I don’t know if it has reached the level of saving one.
