Not long after, a eunuch led a white-haired old man from the road on the other side of the tiger enclosure. The eunuch came in first and preached: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, Dr. Yuan Gusheng of "Poetry" has come to see you.
!”
"Pass it!" the emperor said calmly, and then winked at Liu De, which meant that Liu De would take care of it.
Although Liu De was helpless in his heart, he still had to pretend to be confident and wise.
"Old minister Yuan Gusheng pays homage to our emperor, pays homage to the Queen Mother, pays homage to the eldest princess and His Highness..." After Yuan Gusheng was brought in by the eunuch, he knelt down and kowtowed. Looking over from Liu De's side, Yuan Gusheng was already there.
He is very old, he must be over 70 years old. Generally speaking, old people at this age should be very old, and even their memories have begun to fade, but Yuan Gusheng is still lively and vigorous at this time, and he seems to be relatively strong.
.
Liu De knew about the official position of doctor. It was an official position in the Qin Dynasty. It was originally awarded to those scholars from various places in Guandong who defected to the Qin State. Therefore, it was not actually a high-ranking official, but an honorary guest minister.
.
In the Han Dynasty, Emperor Hui Liu Ying abolished the narrow book code, and at the same time, in order to better rescue the classics that were burned and lost in the war, he re-established the doctorate.
Therefore, at this time, the official position of doctor was not only available to Confucian people.
Confucianism has doctors of poetry and calligraphy, Legalism has doctors of criminal names...
Moreover, the titles of each doctor are divided very carefully.
For example, "Poetry", "Book", "Erya", "The Analects", "Spring and Autumn", "Han Fei", "Guan Zi", "Yi Yin" and even "Sun Tzu" and "Sun Bin" each have their own doctoral officers.
Generally speaking, a doctorate from the Han family at this time was roughly equivalent to the national certification qualification of a certain professional expert in later generations.
Anyone who can be called a doctor of a certain book must basically be the one who has achieved the highest research and understanding of the book.
And this Yuan Gusheng is now the Doctor of Poetry.
This shows that he should be a leader in the field of "Poetry".
But Liu De knows that this may not be certain!
At this time, not only the various schools of thought but hundreds of schools of thought were moving forward together, looking for opportunities to display their political ideas in the Han Dynasty.
Even within each university sect, there are actually many mountains.
Take the "Book of Songs" as an example, there are three peaks at this time, one is Qi poetry, Yuan Gusheng is the representative of Qi poetry, and the other is Lu poetry. The leader of Lu poetry is Shen Pei, who Zeng Guan went to Chu.
The Grand Tutor of the State is famous all over the world, and everyone respects him as Shen Gong. The third one is the Yan Shi faction that spreads across the land of Yan and Zhao!
These three factions all consider themselves orthodox, while the other two are heretics...
Later, Liu Che launched a campaign to ban hundreds of schools of thought and only respect Confucianism. Not only did he exclude other schools of thought, but some of the Confucianists themselves were also brutally suppressed. "Gu Liang Chun Qiu" was once suppressed to the point where it was almost lost.
People who studied "Gu Liang Chun Qiu" can only pretend to be scholars of "Gongyang Chun Qiu" in order to become officials...
Until the time of Emperor Xuan, due to issues related to his life experience, Emperor Xuan valued Gu Liang and rejected Gong Yang. So at the Shiqu Pavilion meeting, the Gu Liang faction became the master and stepped on the Gong Yang faction...
Therefore, even if hundreds of schools of thought later stopped emphasizing Confucianism, there was no unity in the ideological world. Instead, they were more strenuous, excluded, and suppressed. The various factions within Confucianism also experienced continuous internal strife and mutual strife over hundreds of years in the Han Dynasty.
Fusion, and finally became a whole...
In his previous life, Liu De was inevitably influenced by some scholars from the Yan Shi faction in the Hejian Kingdom. He actually had no favorable impressions of Lu Shi and Qi Shi...
This is also the reason why Liu De doesn't have much affection for Yuan Gusheng now.
When Liu De was thinking about how to help Yuan Gusheng break the situation, Empress Dowager Dou smiled softly and asked: "I heard that the Qing family has a lot of experience in governing "Poetry" and is knowledgeable. The Ai family has asked Qing to come this time.
, I just want to ask the Qing family, in their opinion, what do you think of the book written by Lao Tzu?"
In fact, Queen Mother Dou didn't think anything of it, she just felt unhappy.
Yesterday, when she was listening to Huang Sheng explaining Laozi's "Tao Te Ching" to her, she heard that a doctor named Yuan Gusheng had an argument with Huang Sheng. They were at loggerheads for a while, but the emperor finally came to the rescue.
In Empress Dowager Dou's heart, this Huang Laoxue was the best knowledge whether it was governing a country or a family.
Therefore, when she heard that there was a Confucian scholar who could compete with Huang Sheng, who she thought was first-class in knowledge and character, she felt unhappy. She felt that this Confucian scholar was really arrogant, and she had to teach him a lesson to let him know how powerful he was.
The emperor summoned Yuan Gusheng, not because he wanted to cause trouble to Yuan Gusheng, but because he wanted to hear some flattering words and make Yuan Gusheng bow his head and admit that Huang Laoxue was the best scholar in the world.
As soon as Liu De heard the Queen Mother Dou speak, he quickly put aside all the little calculations in his heart, and suddenly had a clever idea in his heart and said before Yuan Gusheng: "Back to the imperial grandmother, my grandson feels that the book written by me is really the best among all the schools of thought."
Regarding knowledge, Kong Zhongni also asked Lao Tzu twice in person, calling him 'the great and profound real person of ancient times'. Since even Zhongni thought that I was the 'extreme and profound real person of ancient times', my grandson wanted to come, so I should be regarded as the master of all schools of thought
The first of the sages!"
What Liu De said is true to a certain extent.
At the beginning, the relationship between the Huang-Lao sect and Confucianism might have been very good, so Confucius could face Lao Tzu and highly respect him.
It's a pity that the disciples and grandsons of the two men have almost had their brains ripped out in order to fight for the right to speak.
Scholars of Huang-Laoxue do not like Confucianism, and Confucian people also dislike Huang-Laoxue.
As soon as Liu De said these words, Queen Mother Dou immediately became happy and said with a smile: "The Ai family thinks Liu De is right. What do you think, Emperor?"
What else could the emperor Liu Qi say, so he could only agree: "What the queen mother said is..." At the same time, the emperor was also very satisfied with Liu De's cleverness and felt that this matter should just go away. The queen mother laughed.
It means the anger has subsided!
Unfortunately, at the next moment, a very inappropriate voice said stubbornly: "When I return to the Queen Mother, I think that my words are the words of my family!"
Liu De's heart suddenly felt as if a million grass and mud horses were running past.
"Even if you seek death, you shouldn't be like this~" Liu De lamented, it's true that if you don't commit suicide, you won't die. Now he even wants to eat his life!
Yuan Gusheng's words were obviously full of contempt and contempt for Laozi's books. Even the Queen Mother Dou could tell it even though she was illiterate. The implication of Yuan Gusheng's words was that Huang Laoxue was the number one scholar in the world whom she admired.
She is worthy of coaxing an ignorant woman from the countryside. This not only despises and despises Huang Laoxue, but also insinuates that she is just a blind and ignorant old peasant woman!
Empress Dowager Dou's meaning is a bit more obscure. Yuan Gusheng was a doctor of "The Book of Songs". At that time, the list of articles and the length of the "Book of Songs" were the same as those in the Han Dynasty. It was specifically used to control those who were punished for crimes.
The prison lists for those who built the Great Wall and those who built the city wall were similar.
The meaning is obvious. You dare to say that Huang Laoxue, whom the Ai family loves, is a family member. Then the "Book of Songs" you studied is just a list of prisoners for prisoners to see.
This is already an extremely severe and angry accusation!
Things finally reached the point of no return.
