"The king is also regarded as the hero of the world, a loyal minister and a martyr, and the story of the Qin court is completed." Chronicles of the States of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty
The emperor knew that Zheng Xuan had completely surrendered to him. As for his age, there was no need to consider it at the moment. After all, he had gone through all kinds of temptations and preparations in advance. For example, in the suburbs of Chang'an in front of Cui Lie and others
Putting what you have learned into practice, explaining to Xun You the unity of men and women on the battlefield in Hedong, and the recent study of things to achieve knowledge. These foreshadowings have made everyone fully aware of the emperor's foundation in Confucian classics, and also made everyone have psychological expectations for the emperor's behavior in explaining the classics.
Since the emperor has the ability and talent to annotate the scriptures, there is no reason for anyone to stop him. After all, the emperor is the one who makes the cake and the one who decides to divide the cake. Anyone who disagrees may not only lose the qualification to get the cake, but also the one who decides to divide the cake.
There may be the risk of overturning the table. As long as the emperor keeps dragging this matter and dragging this generation to death, won't no one get anything?
Therefore, benefit sharing is the wisest choice. They should not act like villains and shut out the emperor who makes cakes.
With the strong support of great Confucian scholars like Zheng Xuan and Zhao Qi, as well as the reputation of Yang Biao, Huan Dian, Xun Yue and others among aristocratic families and scholars, this Imperial Thirteen Classics of Justice has gained countless people before it even started to be compiled.
people's attention.
"Such a grand event is worthy of a special mention in the history of history. I would like to congratulate my uncle." In the small courtyard, under the open window, Xun You said to Xun Yue with a smile.
"This is also a blessing for me, the Xun family of Yingchuan."
He casually flipped through the slips and silks on the desk: "It's a pity that before I finished compiling the Han Dynasty, I took on the task of compiling the Thirteen Classics of Justice. I'm afraid that if nothing is accomplished, something will happen again.
It was because we failed to do both ends well in the end, we missed His Majesty's entrustment, and we lost the hope of the world's scholars."
"Things have to be prioritized. My uncle has not seen Cui Shizhong, who has been busy sorting out the biographies and commentaries at home these days. It seems that he is planning to focus on the righteous compilation of the Thirteen Classics. How could he forget that there is a person on his shoulder who is searching for books to compile the imperial review?
Ministry?" Xun You suddenly looked at the unorganized drafts of the Han Dynasty on the table, and said with emotion: "Writing, governance and martial arts, which one is not a great achievement? Your Majesty wants to do both at the same time. It is really courageous."
"Don't compare me with that bronze smell." Xun Yue didn't find it funny. He replied with a straight face and quoted a sentence from Doctrine of the Mean: "A gentleman follows the road and gives up halfway. I can't do it."
After he finished speaking, he continued: "Cai Yong, Yang Biao and others are still compiling the Han Dynasty Chronicles, Cui Lie is compiling the Imperial Chronicles, and I am also revising the Han Chronicles for the imperial gaze under the imperial edict. Not to mention that the secretary supervisor has been here all the time.
Organize pictures and books, and go to the people to collect books. A few months ago, due to the Hedong incident, a large number of collections were collected from various families. Your Majesty’s goal is not just to be the master of ZTE, but to be the master of entrepreneurship.”
"Wen Zhi Wu Gong." Xun You recalled the emperor's continuous implementation of new policies and his determination to rectify the centuries-old malpractice of the imperial court. He nodded and agreed: "If everything goes well, after counting the more than 20 former emperors of the Han Dynasty, I am afraid that no one can be as good as your Majesty.
Merit."
A rare smile appeared on Xun Yue Gujing Wubo's face, and he seemed to say with pride: "Fourteen years old, fourteen years old! Looking at the past and present, how many people have the chance to meet the Holy Lord? Let's talk about Mr. Lu,
If it hadn’t been for that illness, wouldn’t it be?”
"Uncle." The scholars had known each other in private. On his way to Jiujiang, Lu Zhi had met Xun Yue, who lived in seclusion in Yingchuan, several times. Xun You was worried that he would be sad, so he promptly interrupted: "Everyone has his own destiny.
Force it.”
However, Xun Yue remembered that during the reign of Emperor Xiaoling, Lu Zhi, Yang Ci, Ma Rixi, Cai Yong and others corrected the Five Classics in Dongguan and published them on the back of the stone. Scholars from all over the world gathered in Luoyang to watch, copy and communicate with each other.
Thousands of cars are driven every day, and the streets are clogged.
Just by correcting the text of the Six Classics, the Xiping Stone Classic became a model and standard for Confucian scholars to study the Bible. And if the compilation of the Thirteen Classics is completed this time, who knows what kind of sensation it will cause.
Seeing that he was stunned, Xun You didn't dare to disturb him and just sat across from him, staring at the draft on the desk as if he had nothing to do, trying to identify the backward fonts one by one.
"You should have heard recently that many people in the court have proposed themselves and want to participate in the compilation of the Thirteen Classics of Justice." After a long time, Xun Yue came back from his thoughts about the future and said to Xun You.
Xun You had the power of being a minister of public affairs. He had seen many similar memorials in the Chengming Hall. He nodded and said, "They all want to make a name for themselves or pass on their family knowledge."
After the righteous compilation of the Thirteen Classics was issued by the imperial edict, not only ordinary scholars expected that this group of Confucian scholars could work together to break the shackles between ancient and modern Confucian classics and classics schools, and compile and revise a masterpiece of Confucianism.
Come. Even the long-famous Confucian scholars Han Rong, Miao Fei, Guanglu Fuwan, Yilang and Kongrong, who were doctors of Ming Dynasty, were tempted. One after another, they recommended themselves to the book and asked for their own commentaries on the classics for reference.
, join in the righteous compilation of the Thirteen Classics, even if it means becoming an official with swords and pens.
After all, this is not only about one's own fame and fortune, but also about family history. The people involved in the compilation must have more or less selfish motives and will include their own annotations in large sections.
Annotations will be squeezed out and marginalized. When this book becomes popular all over the world and becomes an official classic for recruiting scholars and educating people, other annotations will be buried in the dust of history.
Leave a name in history, turn family learning into official classics and become part of the national will.
With such great fame and fortune, even Ma Rixi, who has already become a Situ and a minister, is a little tempted, let alone others.
"There are many famous scholars like Han Gong in these memorials, but they have all been detained by the state." Xun You said in a relaxed tone, as if stating a fact: "I can't say it accurately, nor can I say it accurately. This kind of thing
, if you don’t come up with something genuine, or if you don’t do something to satisfy the country, even the most famous Confucians will not even think about participating.”
"The country wants to use this matter to win over the hearts of the great scholars in the world." Xun Yue nodded and said.
The decision of whether to allow other Confucian scholars to participate in the compilation rests with the emperor alone, and no one else can comment. As long as he holds the knife to share the cake, countless famous Confucian scholars will rush to ask him for a share of the pie. Xun Yue
There is reason to believe that as long as some time passes, after this news spreads to Guandong and even the world, all the celebrities in the country who are interested in fame and fortune will rush to Chang'an.
There is no need to leave a single bus, and there is no need to issue an edict. Someone will gather around His Highness.
"This is a conspiracy, and it is also the mutual benefit and win-win that the country often talks about." Xun You admired the emperor's methods more and more at this time. He originally thought that the emperor's unauthorized interpretation of the scriptures, or even denying other people's annotations, would inevitably cause other conflicts.
Experts questioned. Unexpectedly, the emperor would choose to take the lead by himself and convene several major classics and scholar clans to jointly compile annotated scriptures. Moreover, this scripture is not the traditional Five Classics, but other books such as Mencius that are not valued by the mainstream and have been upgraded to
It was given equal importance to the Five Classics and was summarized into the Thirteen Classics. This made the families who passed down such scriptures burst into tears with gratitude and wished they could cut their livers to see if they could do the same thing.
Don’t you see, Zhao Qi, who spent his whole life annotating Mencius and promoting this book, was so moved that he almost cried at that time? At this time, if someone dares to criticize this at all, I am afraid that the emperor will not need to speak.
Will be criticized by countless people.
This is the charm of benefit sharing. The emperor is good at using external pressure to force others to unite with him, and he is also good at using benefits to gather people around him.
"Despite this, there are still some people who say weird things behind their backs." Xun Yue said suddenly, with a bit of displeasure on his brows: "It is arbitrary to say that Your Majesty wants to delete the meaning of the scriptures and make it one family's statement, while abolishing the opinions of each family."
"They are sour." Xun You touched the pattern on his sleeves and said nonchalantly.
"Sour?" Xun Yue didn't understand the meaning of this sentence.
Xun You remembered what the emperor said occasionally, looked up at Xun Yue, and repeated: "They only know that the family history is meager and there is no hope of participating in the editing, so they say the grapes are sour."
