Chapter 7: For the lord Ye Luoshangfeng, please ask for the moon
Blessed by the ancestors: I established a thousand-year-old family and established a feudal state. Chapter 7: The Beginning of the King's Road: Gaigengdong Ahou Mansion for the alliance leader Ye Luoshangfeng.
The Hou Mansion is extremely majestic and magnificent, with tall hall doors decorated with countless treasures. The mansion is very large, with countless pavilions and pavilions complementing each other.
Even Jia Yi, who had just walked out of the palace, looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but admire that this mansion was the only one in Chang'an City and even in the world.
Jia Yi walked around the long corridor and through the continuous courtyards. Under the guidance of the waiter, he walked for about half an hour and finally saw Luo Jing in the back garden of the Hou Mansion.
His old bones were really heavy after such a long journey. Luo Jing Weiwei was lying on the rocking chair by the lotus pond, closing his eyes to rest.
Nowadays, Luo Jing rarely pays attention to things and is almost in a semi-retired state, because although he agreed to Liu Che's request for help, he also saw that Liu Che had a strong personality.
He had a deep relationship with Liu Heng and was unwilling to conflict with Liu Che, so he gave in and just watched him from a distance in the Hou Mansion.
Naturally, Jia Yi came to look for Luo Jing because of what happened in the palace just now. Dong Zhongshu's appearance was an accident, and Jia Yi wanted to find out.
"Dong Zhongshu?"
Luo Jing frowned slightly and repeated the name.
"He is a practitioner of the Spring and Autumn Classic?
I don't remember such a great Confucian among the Spring and Autumn Confucians.
Moreover, the Spring and Autumn Classic written by Confucius Sheng does not contain the content of King Su. Could it be that he is from the lineage written by the ancestor Ming Gong?"
Luo Jing was a little confused, so he called the waiter and said: "Immediately send someone to inform the Confucian sects of each sect to find out which Confucian sect Dong Zhongshu is from, who his mentor is, and whether he has ever been to Zhaocheng."
In the Temple of Zhuzi, have you ever been to the official Confucian pedigree?"
Although the Confucian sect emphasizes that everyone should be educated without distinction, as long as they have the talent to become a disciple, most of them will be accepted as disciples. Moreover, the Confucian sect likes to give lectures, and many times open its doors for free.
But like other doctrines, true direct disciples must undergo a formal apprenticeship ceremony.
If we want to give an example, the relationship between Liu Bei and Lu Zhi is very suitable. Liu Bei once attended classes under Lu Zhi, but it cannot be said that there is a master-disciple relationship between them.
Confucius and Yan Hui were the real teachers and disciples.
This relationship between master and apprentice can even be compared to that between father and son. The filial piety mentioned by the court also includes the relationship between master and apprentice. The stability of this relationship even exceeds the real history.
The reason why this happens is because of the existence of Zhaocheng Zhuzi Temple and the existence of Luo family.
The Zhuzi Temple is not just a hall with stone statues, it is not just a cultural place. The true disciples of any school must worship under the statue of the ancestor in the Zhuzi Temple to be considered a real introduction. Then the Luo family
The name of the student will be recorded in the record, and then it will be recorded completely according to the branch of the apprentice, and two copies will be archived, one will be given to the person who comes to worship, and the other will be kept in Zhaocheng.
This is part of Luo's cultural hegemony. Luo used its thousands of years of credit and countless classics as guarantees to preserve the inheritance for hundreds of schools of thought. In the words of later generations, it can be called a "cultural bank."
Any Gaoshi from hundreds of schools can find his place in the temple. Even those wild and talented Gaoshi will be quickly absorbed into this system and become Gaoshi of a certain branch.
one.
As for those who are unwilling to join the branch, they will either be directly suppressed, or they will directly connect with Luo and then become the founders of the new branch.
Several branches of Spring and Autumn Confucianism split apart because they were dissatisfied with each other. Luo Jing now had reason to suspect that Dong Zhongshu was also in the same situation.
Jia Yi was a disciple of Mencius with a pedigree, so he knew this very well, so he came to look for Luo Jing in the hope of finding out.
But looking at Luo Jing's attitude, Jia Yi knew that Dong Zhongshu was probably from Yeluzi, so he immediately said: "It is really inappropriate for Confucian disciples to come to Chang'an and not visit the princes but directly participate in political affairs and even meet the emperor."
sensible.
Moreover, he directly promoted his theory under the title King Su. This shows that he was not beaten enough, which made him so arrogant.
When we were in the palace, because His Majesty was at the head, our friendship did not break out. Once we find out the details, we should have everyone have a good talk with him."
Dong Zhongshu probably never dreamed that Jia Yi was chatting and laughing with him in the palace just now, but after leaving the palace, he directly found Luo Jing to find out his details.
And he was also prepared to directly give him a righteous group beating to make him understand that some words should not be said and some things should not be done.
Luo Jing smiled and said nothing. Everything has not been decided yet. As the Luo family stationed in Beijing, it is not suitable for him to express opinions. Moreover, he is very interested in another matter.
So he asked: "Prime Minister, did you just say that your Majesty intends to use troops against the Huns?"
Jia Yi was a little surprised that Luo Jing would ask about this matter, so he suddenly said: "Yes, your Majesty and the late emperor are completely different people. He is somewhat obsessed with opening up territories. During the period after he succeeded to the throne,
"Nei, I have asked Yi several times in a circumstantial way to test Yi's intentions. If Yi does not agree, I am afraid that His Majesty will look for an opportunity to remove Yi from the position of prime minister."
Jia Yi still had something to say. After Liu Che came to power, the expenses in the palace increased more than ten times compared to Liu Heng's period. This was completely different from the behavior of the ancient sage kings in Liu Heng's classics, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
, but the Han Dynasty was rich and prosperous, so the emperor's expense was not a big problem, so he didn't say anything.
If Jia Yi knew that the current Liu Che had greatly restrained due to the changes in the world, and that Liu Che in real history could spend ten times more than this, he would probably be furious.
Of course Luo Jing knew that Liu Che wanted to open up territory and expand territory. After all, Liu Che used this reason to convince Luo Jing to help him. One of Luo's principles is to use Zhu Xia's sword to open up land for Zhu Xia's plow, and to expand territory in the same way.
There's a kind of obsession that I can't refuse at all.
For an emperor like Shi Huangdi who stood opposite to Luo Shi, Luo Shi was still willing to give him a very positive evaluation because of his contribution to the expansion of territory, instead of slandering his achievements and belittling his merits in accordance with the principle of a successful king or a defeated bandit.
Luo Jing muttered: "It is not a bad thing to expand the territory. Your Majesty wants to do it. Prime Minister, you should help your Majesty to do it well. Your Majesty is still young, but you are very old. From now on, the world will always be your Majesty's."
Jia Yi was shuddered when he heard this, knowing that Luo Jing was trying to remind him, so he said: "Yi understands that he already expressed his support for His Majesty when he was in the palace.
In fact, Yi is not worried if he conquers Southwest Yi or Shanyue. Even if they are defeated like the Qin Dynasty, it will not affect the overall situation, because Southwest Yi and Shanyue can only guerrilla with the Han in the mountains, and they cannot go to Chang'an to shake the Han.
The foundation of society.
But conquering the Huns is not an easy task. Yi is always worried about what will happen. If there is a big defeat and the offense and defense change, the Huns can even rush directly out of Chang'an through those passages, which will cause too much damage to the country.
.
Yi would rather offend His Majesty, or even die, than have something unexpected happen to the country of Han Dynasty, and fail to live up to Emperor Xiaowen's entrustment."
Guanzhong is a strategic place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack, but that is only for the Central Plains. For the nomads in the north, there are many roads to Chang'an, and they are condescending. Once the northern border cannot be defended,
The iron hooves can easily tear apart any defense line and appear in the center of the big man.
After all, Jia Yi is a purely civil servant who does not understand military affairs, so he is naturally worried about this.
Luo Jing heard this and said with a smile: "Prime Minister, you are really unfounded. Unless King Su comes to this world, no one will always win in the war between the two countries.
The Han Dynasty will encounter failure sooner or later, but we cannot look forward and backward because of fear of failure. Starting from Queen Gao, what is the purpose of the Han Dynasty's decades of recuperation?
In order to drag down foreign enemies to death even if they fail, you know how much food and armor there are in Chang'an's treasury, and you also know how many horses the Han Dynasty has raised on the only land in these years.
Even if they fail once, twice, or even three times or four times, the big Han can afford it. The Huns are indeed powerful. They can even achieve one to one casualties with the Han army in previous conflicts, and sometimes the Han army's casualties are even higher.
It will surpass the Huns, but so what?
The Han Dynasty was a big country with a population of tens of millions, while the Huns only had a population of one million, and they would be consumed to death!
As the Prime Minister, you only need to ensure that there are no problems with the logistics of the war and do your best to win the war. Leave the rest to the general.
General Zhou Yafu was very strict in managing the army, and Xiliu Camp had made great achievements in suppressing rebellions, suppressing barbarians, and attacking the Western Qiang. With such a strong army and a commander who was good at military affairs.
There is no need to worry too much about the war with the Huns."
These words convinced Jia Yi. He had worked with Zhou Yafu for nearly twenty years, and he was quite clear about Zhou Yafu's ability. He could be called the pinnacle of the Han Dynasty, and Jia Yi was an outstanding person who could serve as prime minister for decades. He would soon be the prime minister.
All the worrying thoughts in my heart were suppressed.
"It seems that Yi will start collecting information about the Huns from now on. If you know yourself and your enemy, you will never be in danger. When His Majesty asked, he seemed to be doing his best.
Lord, if there is news about Dong Zhongshu later, you can just send someone to the Prime Minister's Mansion to look for Yi, and Yi will leave now."
Luo Jing cupped his fists and saluted and said, "Prime Minister, go slowly. If there is any news, I will inform you immediately at the Prime Minister's residence. The country and the country need you to be more careful."
Jia Yi also cupped his fists and saluted, and then left Dong'ahou Mansion with the waiter.
Luo Jing looked at the fish that suddenly jumped up in the lotus pond, and hurriedly threw a handful of food into it, "If the war breaks out, the family may not sit back and watch in Zhaocheng, but do the Huns really dare to go south?
My uncle is still in Zhaocheng, could the Xiongnu Chanyu be so stupid?"
