He did what he thought of. After leaving Yiluo's palace, Liu Che immediately asked Ji An to go to the Xiuyiwei and Shiquge Royal Archives to retrieve all the files of the Tianxia School.
As a time traveler, Liu Che had already started to establish relevant intelligence files for all schools in the world, as well as their main schools and main members, four years ago.
Including the purpose and demands of the school, as well as the birth and experience of the main members, as well as the works they have written and their public remarks.
Create all files and subdivide them by title.
Everyone's past and present are clear at a glance.
Liu Che spent two days going through the relevant information and materials.
Then, he sighed: "Unexpectedly, hundreds of schools of thought could develop like this..."
"Prosperity..."
In a few years, when he didn't even notice it, even the people in the world probably didn't experience it personally.
However, the changes in various factions of various schools of thought have been so great that they can only be described as earth-shaking!
Take Confucianism as an example.
Nowadays, Confucianism mainly consists of seven mountains.
The Gongyang faction advocated the great righteousness of the Spring and Autumn period and held high the banner of Zhu Xia doctrine and the distinction between Hua and Yi.
The Guliang sect believes that relatives should hide from each other, unite and be friendly, and everyone can make a fortune together.
There are also the Chu School of Poetry and the Han School of Poetry who insist that they are the true heirs of "Poetry", while the other party is a heretic.
The School of Thought and Mencius attaches great importance to people's livelihood and insists that benevolence is the truth of the world.
and the Chongmin School, which has the same origin but is more radical.
There is also the Xunzi school of thought that scorns all the above schools of thought and criticizes them all.
Do you think this is enough?
wrong!
Big mistake!
The Gongyang School is divided into Hu Wusheng and Dong Zhongshu.
The Guliang School can be divided into whether it is a faction that is close to each other or a conditional faction.
Although the Chu Poetry School has Lu Shen Gong in charge, Lu Shen Gong is too old after all, and because he is implicated by Lu Ru, various ideological trends are rampant within the Chu Poetry School, almost turning it into a hodgepodge!
Even the Simeng school, which had long been suppressed by other Confucian factions and hostile to the government, inevitably split after regaining opportunities for development.
Several giants within the Simeng school have been arguing for the past two years whether Mr. Zisi's knowledge is better or Mencius's thought is better? So it was a big deal!
It has almost reached the point where water and fire are incompatible!
As for other factions such as the Lu Ru faction, Zeng Confucianism, Yan Confucianism, Qi Confucianism, Qin Confucianism, etc., there are more than thirty large and small factions!
It is in line with Han Feizi’s evaluation of Confucianism at that time: The most outstanding learning in the world is Confucianism and Mohism. Where Confucianism comes, Confucius comes. Where Mohism comes, Mo Zhai comes. Since the death of Confucius, there have been scholars who have promoted Confucianism and others who have thought about it.
Confucianism includes Confucianism of the Yan family, Confucianism of the Meng family, Confucianism of the Qidiao family, Confucianism of the Zhongliang family, Confucianism of the Sun family, and Confucianism of the Lezheng family... Therefore, after Confucius and Mo, Confucianism is divided into
Eight, the ink is divided into three, the choices are opposite and different, but they all call themselves true Kong Mo!
Well, that's the case now too.
Everyone said that he was the orthodox one, while everyone else was a heretic, a hypocrite who had distorted the sages, and they were constantly attacking each other. The internal situation was as chaotic as a concert, with all kinds of noises...
Confucianism is so chaotic, how can Legalism and Huang-Lao Sect be better?
Shen Han, Shang Jun, Li Kui, and Shen Dao held high the banner of the sages, and the various factions within the Legalist family were quarreling and fighting non-stop.
The competition between them is extremely fierce.
Even the old-school Huang who seems to advocate quietness and does not like fighting.
The differences between Qi Huanglao and Qin Huanglao have actually reached the sky.
They are not arguing now, not only because they don't like to quarrel by nature, but also because the giants of the Huang Lao Sect are already in their seventies and eighties and have no energy to quarrel.
Even the Mohist family was actually quietly divided into two factions.
One group is running wildly towards the avenue of exploring physical rules, chemical derivation and the laws of heaven, earth and stars.
The other faction, on the other hand, is exactly the opposite.
They don't care about the laws of physics or chemical reactions. They just want to create things that can be realized now, that can be widely popularized technically, and that can immediately benefit the country and the people.
Although the two factions now have little differences, they are closely united.
But who knows if they will fight in a few decades?
After all, Mohism had more than one disagreement over its philosophy and path in its history.
And every argument and disagreement will eventually lead to separation.
For example, Mr. Xu Xing broke away from the Mohist family and established a farming family.
It seems that there is only one miscellaneous family. Because it is located in the land of Anton, it only cares about its development and has no energy for internal strife and internal fighting for the time being.
After a rough calculation, Liu Che discovered that there are at least one or two hundred academic factions with more than a hundred members in the world, large and small.
Among them, there are almost a hundred influential schools in one or more counties.
There are all kinds of mainstream schools of thought, no less than thirty!
Anyone who sees this data will know that since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, another intense and far-reaching collision and fusion of ideas is actually just around the corner.
Hundreds of schools of thought will once again catch each other and fight each other.
However, it was different from the great ideological collision and fusion during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
The contention of a hundred schools of thought during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period was actually the inevitable result of the collapse of order in Zongzhou.
The sages of various schools of thought have witnessed the misery of war among the nations and the devastation of the people.
In order to save the nation or restore peace, they all expressed their opinions.
Confucius believed that the root cause of the world's problems lay in the collapse of Zhou etiquette, so he advocated restoration, self-denial and restoration of rituals. He believed that as long as we returned to the Zongzhou era, when the emperor was in charge of the world and rituals and music were in order, the tragedy could be avoided.
Mr. Zixia, a student of Confucius, traveled around the world and witnessed the terrible current situation brought about by disorder, so he gave lectures in Wei State and combined the experiences and theories of sages such as Mr. Zichan. Legalism was born.
Legalism advocates great unification, putting everything above all else, using law and order to restrain the people, manage the people, teach them to the best of their ability, and ultimately enrich the country and strengthen the army!
At the same time, Mr. Mo Zhai, holding high the banner of universal love and non-aggression, stood on the opposite side of Confucianism and began to roll up his sleeves to fight!
Since Confucianism, Legalism and Mohism.
The sages led by the Jixia Academy of Qi and the senior academic officials from other countries, based on the sages such as Guanzi and Shizi, took the Yellow Emperor and Laozi as their banners and preached tranquility and inaction, governing by doing nothing, and resting with the people.
This is the birth of Huang Lao Pai.
Since then, countless schools of thought such as famous writers, miscellaneous writers, novelists, and military strategists have emerged.
For a time, China was full of outstanding people.
Zengzi, Zixia, Mencius, Li Kui, Wu Qi, Shang Jun, Han Feizi, and Lu Buwei all took the stage one after another.
There is also Zhang Yi and Su Qin, who relies on his sharp tongue to deceive people all over the world and achieves boundless fame.
So far, in fact, the hundreds of schools of thought in the pre-Qin period have basically established and improved the context and general direction of China's ideological factions.
Later generations basically have to elaborate their own thoughts and theories around their achievements.
But now, it's different.
Now, the world situation and the world situation faced by the giants of various schools of thought are completely different from their ancestors.
Today's Han Dynasty, although it cannot be said that the world is at peace, there are wolves on the road of Kyushu.
But it was also a prosperous time of stability and peace.
The power of merchants flourished, and industry and commerce in various places became more prosperous, which accelerated the flow of population in the world.
In particular, the settlement of immigrants from Anton and the arrival of the gold rush accelerated this process.
Each school of thought is no longer limited to a certain place.
Instead, it began to extend to the world with the development of the times.
This brings many new problems and many new challenges.
This forces the wise and far-sighted people of all schools of thought to think about and solve these problems and challenges.
Lu Ru has been in decline in recent years because of its inability to solve these problems and challenges, and now even its home base is being destroyed by the Gongyang and Guliang factions.
As the saying goes, the fox is sad when a rabbit dies, and an object hurts its own kind.
When other people saw Lu Ru's miserable situation and felt a sense of crisis, they had to speed up the process of strengthening themselves.
As a result, the giants of all schools of thought, including Confucianism, had to put down their high arrogance, squat down, and carefully examine the folk sentiments and changes in the world.
We can no longer talk about Confucius saying Cheng Ren and Mencius saying righteousness as in the past. We must talk about the unreachable rule of the Three Dynasties regardless of reality and reality.
Guys who do this will definitely be eliminated by the times!
And in this way, people with different ideas and different thinking directions will naturally appear.
The ideological theories and adaptability methods put forward by these people have been continuously improved over time, and gradually formed factions that seem to be similar, but in fact are completely different.
For example, the Simeng School and the People's Movement School are both holding high the banner of Mencius, advocating that benevolence means loving others, and that righteousness will lead to death.
But what about actually?
The Simeng school promotes "benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom, kindness" and emphasizes treating knowledge sincerely. Some are like ascetics, believing that as long as the heart is sincere, one will naturally do well in learning, and if one does well in learning, he will naturally be a gentleman, and a gentleman will do it.
Rule the world.
Generally speaking, it is still the same old Confucian style.
But the people-centered school is different.
Although he also advocated benevolence and loving others, he regarded Mencius as his ancestor.
But it completely abandons the impact of personal morality and behavior on the world.
The school of emphasis on the people believes that as long as it is beneficial to the people, beneficial to the people's livelihood, and beneficial to the people, even if they are villains, it is good.
On the contrary, no matter how bad the moral level is, it may harm the country.
In this regard, the two factions have fought countless wars of words.
Each side announced that they had dismissed the other party as the 'descendant of Mencius'.
From the files and reports of the Xiuyiwei, we can also see that the two schools of thought are attached to two completely different classes.
The Simeng School flourished in the Liang Kingdom and the Sanhe area, and mainly relied on the landlords and scholar-bureaucrats.
The headquarters of the School of Civilization was Luoyang, which had the strongest business atmosphere in the world. Its main supporters and financial backers were some big landowners, big businessmen and big nobles in Luoyang, Suiyang, Xingyang and Guanzhong.
This naturally determines that the two are not actually in the same camp at all.
After going through all of this in his mind, Liu Che walked out of his imperial study, came outside, looked at the prosperous world, the splendid world, and said: "Zhizhao: I heard that in ancient times, the princes paid tribute, one
If it is appropriate to call it good virtue, then to be called virtuous, if it is appropriate to say it is meritorious, then add nine tins! Today there are various scholars who may be called Confucius's school, some may be called scholars of Shenhan, or some may be called the elders of Huang Lao
, or the disciples of Mo Zhai, they are all knowledgeable and have the talent to govern the world!
Today I am working hard and sleeping day and night, and I am willing to work with the people in the universe to achieve the holy path.
He has prepared three bottles of wine in Shiqu Pavilion and is waiting for the famous people from all over the world to participate in government affairs with him!"
Immediately, Shang Shulang accepted the order, recorded the edict, and then polished it a little and presented it to Liu Che's case. After inspecting it, Liu Che immediately stamped his emperor's seal on it, then handed it to an attendant and asked:
: "Come down to the censor and proclaim it to the world!"
This is not state affairs, nor is it an order to issue policies.
It is just a solicitation order for the giants of hundreds of schools and universities in the world.
Naturally, there is no need for discussion at the imperial censor's office, and then it is left to the court for discussion.
The emperor can decide with one word!
Therefore, after receiving the imperial edict, Chao Cuo, the imperial censor, did not think much about it. He immediately signed his name on the edict and handed it to the imperial censor, with the instruction: "Put it on the dew cloth and order it to be passed down and spread all over the world."
County!”
And he hurriedly walked out to find his teacher Zhang Hui.
What to do?
Of course, he is to take the lead from everyone and give his own faction a few more seats in the upcoming Shiqu Pavilion meeting!
The emperor's edict made it very clear: 'Prepare some wine and wait at the Shiqu Pavilion, where you can participate in government affairs and discuss national policies with famous people from all over the world'.
How big is Shiqu Pavilion?
Chao Cuo knew very well that even if Sima Tan and Sima Host gave up their office loft, and then vacated the loft outside Shiqu Pavilion, they would only be able to accommodate 400 people attending the meeting at the same time, and it was even possible that they would only be able to accommodate
About three hundred and fifty people.
Among them, the emperor, nobles, ministers with two thousand stones, and generals and princes will occupy at least fifty seats.
There are probably only three hundred seats left for the various schools of thought.
It looks like a lot, but it's actually very little.
Apart from other things, given the relationship between the Huang Lao Sect and the East Palace, at least thirty seats will be taken up by Huang Lao.
In addition, the relationship between the Mohist family and the emperor is enough to ensure that a Mohist can attend.
This means there are at least another thirty or forty seats missing.
And this Shiqu Pavilion meeting that the emperor is suddenly going to convene is likely to determine the rise and fall of hundreds of schools of thought in the future.
For such an important meeting, naturally the more people on one's side attend, the fewer seats the other factions will have and the lower their right to speak.
Don't look at it now, Confucianism and Legalism are at odds with each other.
However, when encountering this incident, Chao Cuo never considered reporting the matter to Confucianism.
For Chao Cuo, the current cooperation between Confucianism and Legalism is actually just using each other.
If possible, the Legalists certainly hope to step on the Confucianists and stab them in the back. (To be continued.)
