More than a month has passed in a blink of an eye.

Lai Min, Meng Guang and others cleaned themselves behind closed doors, and refused to communicate with each other about the books in their homes. Eliminating doctrines and removing the chaff is just empty talk, in order to maintain one's own doctrine.

Several people argued every day and couldn't come up with a reason, and many scholars in Yizhou had gathered in Shuzhou City, waiting for Lai Min and others to give lectures, and Liu Bei refused to remove Liu Chan from his position. After some deliberation, it was finally decided to hold a lecture in mid-July to show the results of the past two months.

Now it is the middle of July, the weather is hot, in the future, this period is already the summer vacation, such a hot weather, it is really not a good time to start a lecture.

However, the scholars of Yizhou have gathered in Shuzhou City, and Lai Min and others can no longer delay the opening of the lecture.

However, there was no good place in the city to give lectures.

There are thousands of scholars in Yizhou, the houses are too small to squeeze, and the square is too big but too hot.

So the place of the lecture was set up on the mountain.

Sheshan is located thirty miles north of Shuzhou City.

The north is by the river, the south looks at the city of Shuzhou, the mountain has been rested, the wide mountain steps, the ground is paved with bluestone slabs, there are trees in the middle of which can shade the heat, the mountain wind blows, the cool is infinite.

On July 18, Lai Min, Hu Qian and others gave lectures as scheduled.

The steps from the mountainside to the top of the mountain are filled with thousands of students from all over Yizhou.

The four of them sat under an ancient tree on the top of the mountain, condescendingly, overlooking the scholars below.

The mountain wind is blowing, the heat is gone, and Lai Min and others only feel that although the world is big, there is nothing more than this.

"Let's get started!" The four of them glanced at each other and nodded, Lai Min took the lead in getting up and came to the front of the high platform on the top of the mountain, and the other three followed Lai Min to get up.

I could only hear Lai Min say loudly: "During Liu Zhang's governance of Yizhou, he was greedy for pleasure and did not understand his knowledge. Now that the lord has not been in charge of Yizhou for a long time, he ordered me and the other four to gather the legal books, eliminate the doctrines of each school, remove the chaff, and revive the Yizhou culture.

In the past two months, the four of us have been busy with this matter, and today we have summoned you here to pass on the scriptures and teach the scriptures, and this lecture lasts for one month, and I hope you will listen carefully, if you have any doubts, you can ask, and we will solve your doubts. ”

After Lai Min finished speaking, the group of scholars below began to discuss.

"As a lieutenant of the school, why didn't the prince come with such a big event?"

"The lord let him serve as a pawn school captain just to gain fame and fortune, he is just a child, he is used to being pampered, and now that the scorching sun is in the sky, how can he come out and suffer like this?"

"Fortunately, there is also Lai Gong, Meng Gong and they are in charge of this matter, they are all Confucian sages at that time, and they have been responsible for gathering the legal code books during this time, and they are going to be taught now, it must be the sage avenue, this is the gospel of our Yizhou scholars."

"Yes, don't make a noise, let's listen to a few gentlemen!"

On the top of the mountain, the four of them also sat back in their seats and began to teach their doctrine.

The situation was okay in the first few days, Meng Guang, Lai Min and others had just opened the class and did not argue, the four of them took turns to tell their own doctrines, and the knowledge that the scholars were exposed to was far inferior to that of Lai Min and others, and they were fascinated by it.

But after more than ten days, the scholar slowly began to raise his doubts and asked the four of them to answer them, and so the question came out.

The doctrines of the four Lai Min are different, and the content of their answers to the questions of the scholars is naturally different.

Thus the contradiction between the four broke out again, openly arguing in public, praising their own doctrines and belittling the doctrines of others.

During the lecture period, Lai Min and others argued at every turn, but they almost didn't fight, and their doctrines were too conservative and gradually could no longer impress these students.

The good pomp and circumstance was made into a miasma by the four of Laimin.

When all the scholars saw this, they were all disappointed.

And Liu Chan, as a lieutenant of the school, was once again pushed to the front by everyone.

"Liu Chan, as a lieutenant of the school, why didn't he come out to preside over the overall situation? You look at Laimin and them, they just argue and quarrel every day, and they don't come up with anything useful, and this is the result of their time? ”

"Come to Gong, Gong Meng is a Confucian sage and has a great reputation, how can this be? Isn't this the result of Liu Chan's chaotic command behind his back? ”

"Maybe that's the case!"

"Anyway, we must jointly write to the lord tomorrow and ask him to remove him from the post of lieutenant of Liu Chandian's school, such a big matter, whether he interferes or not, is not something that a child of a few years old can do."

"Yes, tomorrow we will jointly sign the book together!"

"Let's go!"

Seeing Lai Min on the high platform, Meng Guang and others were still arguing, and the disappointed scholars finally decided to jointly write to Liu Bei, asking Liu Bei to remove him from the post of lieutenant of Liu Chandian's school.

………………

…………

Early the next morning, at the gate of the state governor's office.

Hundreds of scholars gathered at the gate of the governor's mansion.

The leader held a huge parchment scroll in his hand, and said loudly: "The position of the captain of the school is related to the Yizhou school administration, and the lord and the son of the lord are eager for us to understand, but now Lai Min and others are arguing every day, and their doctrine is no different from before. Now we have jointly written to the lord, and we also ask the lord to remove him from the position of captain of the Shizidian School and replace him with meritocracy! ”

"Please also ask the lord to change his talents, otherwise my Yizhou knowledge will not be able to prosper no matter what."

"Please change the lord to another meritocracy!"

A group of scholars knelt neatly at the gate of the governor's mansion, and the streets in the distance were also crowded with people, and they couldn't see the end at a glance.

In the palace, Liu Bei was dealing with government affairs, and when he heard the voice outside the mansion, Liu Bei couldn't help frowning, and asked Zhuge Liang on the side: "What's going on?" Hasn't Adou come forward to solve this matter yet? ”

Zhuge Liang arched his hand and said: "Lai Min and others have different doctrines, and they refuse to communicate with each other, and they quarrel every day during the lecture, and the scholars are disappointed, so they jointly write a letter asking the lord to remove the prince from his position. As for the fact that the prince did not come out to preside over the overall situation during this time, he must be waiting for the opportunity! ”

Liu Bei slapped the table and scolded when he heard this: "Hmph, these corrupt Confucians have a false reputation, they really shouldn't be counted on!" The time is also ripe, send an order to Adou, immediately let him go to the shooting mountain to preside over the overall situation, I will let these scholars go to the shooting mountain! ”

"Lord!" Outside the door, an attendant suddenly ran in.

"You don't stay in the house, what are you doing here?" Liu Bei recognized him as a subordinate in the mansion, and hurriedly asked him why he came to the mansion.

The subordinate arched his hand and said: "The prince has already led people to the shooting mountain, and he learned that a scholar came to the palace to make trouble, so he ordered the little one to come over, and asked the lord to let these people go to the shooting mountain!" ”
