Yang Biao's worries are not without reason. In addition to safeguarding the basic interests of the family, he was also worried that Confucianism would go astray under Liu Bei's subtle influence. Once at a banquet, when Yang Biao and everyone talked about Liu Bei, he sighed in public: "The general's wealth is rare in the world." However, his mind is really unpredictable. I look at the objects of Qingzhou Academy, but it is borrowed from Confucianism, and the things of the Mohists are also inside. ”

When the ministers heard this, they couldn't help but be dumbfounded. It was really hard for them to imagine that the scholars who had been poor in the academy had been transformed into craftsmen with their sleeves and arms exposed. And craftsmen have always been looked down upon by scholars. One of the charges of King Wu of Zhou's denunciation of King Shang in "Shangshu Tai Oath" is: "The suburbs are not cultivated, the temple is not enjoyed, and the tricks are tricky to please the woman." ”

Since this concept was put forward in the "Shangshu Tai Oath", the development of science and technology in ancient China has been deeply influenced by this concept. Especially after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty "deposed the hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism alone", Confucianism began to become the ruling ideology. On the one hand, there is a misunderstanding, and on the other hand, in order to avoid the ruling class's playthings, they have begun to regard science and technology as a "small road" for the sake of society. Since it's all a "trail", it's naturally disdainful. Traditionally, scholars have only studied subsets of classics and history and literature. There were very few scholars among the artisans, and the material and financial resources for conducting research were controlled by the ruling class. As a result, some technologies are relatively developed, but breakthroughs in theoretical science have not been made.

In normal times, if the scholars do it occasionally, they can call it elegant. But if all the scholars are running in the direction of craftsmen, then how can Confucianism still lead the hundred schools, wouldn't there be a big mess?

However, the study of things, since it was taken out by Liu Bei, has been out of control. On the one hand, after Liu Bei's remarks opened the minds of the scholars, they found that Gewuxue was indeed interesting. Most of you can learn something in it. On the other hand, Liu Bei is now in a high position, and he is already a banner of the Han Dynasty and the only hero of the revival of the Han Dynasty. He has almost become the spiritual leader of the scholars. His words and deeds are naturally regarded as a guideline. To put it bluntly, there is something good at the top, and it will be very bad at the bottom. Based on these points, Gewuxue is already powerful, and Yang Biao and others can contain it.

And Yang Biao and others, who regarded scripture as the right way, naturally wanted to use ether learning to "continue the Taoism" and compete with Liu Bei. So how can he let Taixue Academy follow in his footsteps?

Ministers and celebrities from all walks of life participated in the court debate, arguing countless times, and finally Liu Bei reached a compromise with Yang Biao and others. Taixue takes scholars according to the number of subjects set up by the academy, such as the Ming Classics, the Ming Law, and the Knowing Soldiers, etc., but they do not select materials based on qualities. And half of the imperial examination and half of the recommendation.

Liu Bei also knew that with the expansion of his territory, various forces around him would emerge, and it was impossible for him to make a decision as he did when he governed a state before. Contradictions can only be eliminated and minimized as much as possible, not magnified. Then we can only seek common ground while reserving differences, and use time to slowly win the victory. Fortunately, he still has a lot of time, and he can afford to wait.

said that Gao Rou was ordered by Yuan Shao to go to Bingzhou. Then he went all the way north to visit the local Haoqiang. However, his traces were revealed, and Zhang Liao's side knew about it.

After Lu Bu was listed as the assassin of the state, he was really proud for a long time. With the department, under the banner of the history of the state assassination, he went to his hometown of Wuyuan. However, because of the turmoil in the Central Plains, Wuyuan also suffered great changes, and Hu took advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains to expel the Han officials and lead his troops to attack the city, but he had already occupied most of Wuyuan County. When Lu Bu came here, he saw the white bones in the suburbs and the bloody flesh all over the ground, and couldn't help but be furious, so he summoned the Southern Xiongnu soldiers to come and fight with Hu Bu here.

The Southern Xiongnu are the former masters of this grassland, and there is Lu Bu, a peerless brave general, and the two are one, and the Xianbei tribe that occupies the five plains is torn apart. Hu Chuquan is overjoyed, why can't the kings be suppressed in the struggle for power in the West River before? It's not that there are few people in my own tribe. So he took advantage of the situation to capture the prisoners on a large scale. The old and the fierce were killed, and the women and children were incorporated into their own ranks. All of a sudden, the five plains were full of blood. Lu Bu was used to seeing blood, and he only called for the kitchen spring to kill less. Then he built a Beijing temple in Wuyuan to deter the Hu people. After doing these things, Lu Bu went to his hometown Jiuyuan.

When I arrived in Jiuyuan, I found that in just over ten years, most of the people I knew had withered away, and there was not much in the family. After paying homage to the ancestral tomb, Lü Bu led his troops back to the south, and when he saw such a chaotic situation in the north, he asked Zhang Liao to send people to spy on Yunzhong, Shuofang and other places. When Zhang Liao heard the letter, he borrowed a piece of men and horses from the Southern Xiongnu, and when he joined the scouts on his side, he sneaked into various places. It was under such circumstances that Gao Rou was discovered by the scouts on Zhang Liao's side.

Since the turmoil in the Central Plains, there have been few Central Plains people in the north. And most of the people who come here are businessmen, heroes, and outlaws. When has there ever been a person like Gao Rou whose demeanor and temperament are very different from ordinary people at first glance? After the scout found Gao Rou, he didn't say anything, but he was far behind, and after following him for a few days, he was sure what he wanted to do, so he was busy reporting to Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao had to report the time, but he was not in the palace, he was inspecting the border between Dingxiang and Xihe. Wen Xin was very interested, and said in his heart that he was afraid that Yuan Shao was the back hand and sent this person to mess with me and the state. But I don't know which one of Yuan Shao's accounts this person is? The Lord is facing off against Yuan Shao in the Jiehe, although I can't go to help in the war, but this merger is to be optimistic about the Lord Gong. As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Liao led his troops to the clouds.

After crossing a desert, Zhang Liao intercepted Gao Rou and his party in Shaling County, Yunzhong County.

Gao Rou didn't seem surprised by Zhang Liao's arrival. In fact, he had long felt that there was enough shadow behind him, and someone was following him. It's just that there are few people on his side, and he can't find it for a while. And after he came to Yunzhong, he contacted some people, but found that although there was chaos here, it was not necessarily as optimistic as Yuan Shao and his brother imagined.

The people here are very afraid of Liu Bei's prestige. After hearing that Lu Bu, Zhang Liao and other towns were merged into states, they were even more frightened. At this time, I just begged Lu Bu and Zhang Liao not to lead a large army to attack, how could they dare to attack Lu Bu?

Yuan Shao is so powerful, and his reputation and status are in full swing, but he was not slapped on the ground by Liu Bei, not to mention the big bargain that is about to be obtained in Youzhou, not to mention, even the old capital and state have been folded in. How can he afford to provoke Liu Bei?

Not to mention the anti-bone boy of the Southern Huns who hugged Liu Bei's thigh.

Gao Rou is a very assertive person, in history he surrendered to Cao with his brother, and later Gao Gan surrendered and rebelled, but he did not follow Gao Gan anymore, but stayed in Cao's camp with peace of mind, even Cao Cao wanted to kill him but could not catch him. In the end, he ended up with the high position of the three dukes and the dignitaries of the princes. Seeing that he couldn't say anything about moving the clouds, he felt that there was no need for Wuyuan and Shuofang to go. I'm afraid I'm going in vain. So he wanted to go south and return to Jizhou. didn't want to get here, so he was blocked by Zhang Liao.
