I will live forever in the martial arts world

Chapter 203 Unify hundreds of families!

"Forget it, when Wei Qing comes, you brothers can have a good chat."

Liu Che didn't want to talk about the Guigu sect with his master Fu Yan anymore, so he stopped thinking and then asked:

"Master Dong said you can answer the first question he just asked."

That is how to further restore the power of the princes to his hands.

The matter of cutting down the vassal state, if not careful, will shake up the country's major event.

Of course he also wanted to reduce the vassal status.

But he couldn't start a civil war before the decisive battle with the Xiongnu. Therefore, he could guarantee that what the master father said for a moment would not be the use of force to regain the power of the princes and vassals.

The master's father Yan first saluted Liu Che and said: "Yan Zi said: With or without power, the rich and the poor should be divided equally, and not to feed greed and lust. Confucius said: Those who have a country and a family should not worry about the lack of wealth but about inequality, and do not worry about poverty but about inequality. Uneasy. Gaijun has no poverty, harmony has no widows, and peace has no tendency."

Liu Che nodded and said: "What the Confucian sages said is human nature and the supreme principles of heaven and earth. But what does this have to do with Yanzi's quotations?"

Zhu Fuyan said: "It can be inferred from this that people's hearts yearn for the principle of equality, so what if power can also be equalized?"

Liu Che vaguely caught an idea, but couldn't tell what it was: "Continue?"

The master's father Yan said: "At the beginning of the founding of the Han Dynasty, although it was said that no one with the surname Liu could be crowned king, there are now various princes. These princes are hereditary, but only their eldest son can inherit the throne and power. As a result, the position of princes can be passed down from generation to generation like emperors. Each generation of princes has power comparable to that of the emperor. If things go on like this, it will lead to the catastrophe of the Seven Kings Rebellion. But if... through equalizing the wealth and the poor This method dilutes the power of the princes from generation to generation, abolishes the system that only the eldest son can inherit the throne and titles, and makes it become that as long as he is a prince's descendant, even the son of a commoner has the right to inherit."

After he said that, he held out three fingers:

"Even if there are only three princes in a prince's house, when the prince dies, his title and title will be equal to three parts. It only takes two generations to dilute the prince's power to one-third of the original. If another generation passes, it will be even less... In this way, generations of favors are extended, and in the end, even the queen of the king will not be able to resist ten generations, and there will be no status or power left."

Sutra master Fu Yan said this.

A picture immediately emerged in Liu Che's mind.

It is a big tree that is constantly being cut up. At first, the rhizome may be very large and the crown can cover the sky. But as long as it continues to be divided, the big tree will become many chopsticks, scattered into ordinary people's homes, and there will be no more. Has a huge root system.

"this……"

Liu Che's face was moved and extremely excited:

"This plan will cut out the wounds of human nature. I can imagine that once this order is issued, it will be more powerful than a million soldiers!"

At this time, Dong Zhong said softly and said:

"This is the harm of division. It can easily turn a giant into nothing."

This statement.

Let Liu Che wake up.

Then he saw the master's father retreating to the side.

Dong Zhongshu said calmly:

"Division and unity are the most powerful swords in the world. To the enemy, a sword is handed out to split them into pieces. For oneself, one needs to prevent oneself from falling apart at all times, and one must do one's best to disperse all divisions in the world. The strength from other places, gathered together, is the way to be eternal and invincible."

Liu Che fully understood.

Then he looked at Dong Zhongshu and said:

"Master Fuyan answered the first of the three questions. This plan of 'tending favor and splitting' is no less powerful than a million soldiers. So for the third question, what answer have you prepared? Regarding the chaos in today's world, Xiang, how can I unify the forces that are divided in all directions into one place and twist them into a rope?"

Dong Zhongshu remained unhurried and said: "Your Majesty, please see the second person again."

Liu Che also remembered that there was another person who could answer the third question.

"welcome."

"Little people sang Hongyang."

I saw a young man who was only fifteen or sixteen years old, about the same age as Liu Che, walking out from behind the corner tower.

Now when he sees young men about the same age as himself, he often dares not look down upon him, so he solemnly said:

"You just heard it next to me. Master Dong's third question is about how to take back my financial power. What can you do?"

The young man's voice was crisp and clear, and he said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, I am from Luoyang. My father was deeply influenced by Lu Buwei, a great businessman of the generation. He has taught me this since he was a child. If you want to sell something for a big price, it is best if only your family makes it. No one else can do it.”

Liu Che nodded and said: "That makes sense. Lu Buwei once governed the country with business ideas and accumulated a profound foundation for the Qin Dynasty's planning. So what do you think I, a big man, should be based on now?"

The young man said: "Lu Buwei once said that rare things are valuable, and rare things can be lived in. However, there is something wrong with it, because compared with gambling investments such as rare things, the things that people need to live are often the foundation of a country, such as Salt, ordinary people cannot go without eating salt for a day, otherwise they will get sick. And there is another thing that is the foundation of a country, and that is iron. Iron is the foundation of war and metal utensils. However, these two businesses are now Everyone can do it, the prices are competing with each other, and it’s chaos.”

Liu Che asked with interest: "What if it were you?"

The young man said: "If it were me, I would use the power of the imperial court to nationalize all the salt that the people need most and the iron that is most needed for war. Only the imperial court can sell salt and make iron, and use the state to do business. In this way, salt and iron The huge profits generated every year will be returned to the state."

Liu Che's eyes brightened.

"Okay, okay, okay!!"

How could he not know how profitable the salt and iron industry was, but he also realized that the more profitable the industry, the more it would trigger a backlash from various forces.

So, he looked at Dong Zhongshu and said:

"Master Dong, all this requires strength, how can you teach me?"

Dong Zhongshu said: "This is what I want to answer your Majesty's second question, to unify all the schools of thought."

Liu Che frowned and said, "How to merge? How to unify?"

Dong Zhongshu said: "Your Majesty, have you ever heard that during the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a Jixia Academy that accommodated hundreds of schools of thought? It was the period when the contention of hundreds of schools of thought was most intense."

Liu Che nodded and said: "I know, you mean to restart Jixia Academy?"

Dong Zhongshu said: "It is not a restart. Although the Jixia Academy is a stage for hundreds of schools of thought to contend, it is just sitting and discussing. It is no different from the human world and the country, criticizing each other, blushing, shouting and shouting, one after another, even if it reappears It doesn’t make any sense.”

Liu Che thought: "What do you mean?"

Dong Zhongshu said: "Etherology unifies all schools of thought."

Liu Che said: "Tai Xue? Is it a palace from the Zhou Dynasty?"

Dong Zhongshu said: "No, Taixue, Taizhe, is the ultimate in greatness, embracing all things. Taixue is not only a school, but also a science that can accommodate hundreds of schools of thought."

Liu Che didn't quite understand and said, "Elaborate."

Dong Zhongshu said: "For example, among the Confucian sect, there are rituals, music, riding, shooting, and Shushu. There are six skills in total. There are Confucius, Mencius, Xun, Gongyang and other schools, but they are collectively called Confucianism."

"The so-called Taixue is a study common to hundreds of schools of thought. Among them, whether it is Confucianism, Taoism, Mohism, Dharma, or Yin-Yang, Mingming, and Agriculture, it is just one of the disciplines in Taixue. For example, the Qin Dynasty unified the six After the Kingdom, the Six Kingdoms became just the counties of Qin."

"Ethereum encompasses various schools. From then on, students who entered Taixue no longer had different identities such as political strategists, military strategists, Confucians, Taoists, etc., but were all the same, and could be collectively called 'Tai Xuesi'. "

"Prince students, who were taught by Taixue and born out of hundreds of schools, should be loyal to the emperor and patriotism. In this way, heroes of the Han Dynasty will spring up in Taixue like mushrooms after a spring rain. Your Majesty will be the master of Taixue, and he will be the master of Taixue. The Lord of the World, who controls the Imperial Academy, controls the most powerful people in the world."

After hearing Dong Zhongshu say all this, he left eight words:

"Unify hundreds of schools and only respect the Imperial Academy."

Liu Che felt as if thunder exploded in his head.

If all the schools of thought could be unified into one university, if this could be done...

Originally, on his way back to Chang'an, he had already seen the Mo family's Suzaku, a miraculous craft that could fly into the sky.

I was just thinking about what this magical theory would look like if it could be used in the court and the army.

Now if the theory of unifying a hundred schools of thought proposed by Dong Zhongshu comes true...

Fantasy.

What kind of scene would it be in the Taixue Palace?

Doctors of Taixue in military strategists teach students the art of war. After completing their careers, they can directly join the army.

Students of the Legalist school can be in charge of criminal proceedings, and students of the Legalist school can be in charge of government affairs...

Mohist students could supervise construction projects or join the army.

Yin and Yang watch the stars, monitor the sky, and talk about the earth.

This is to allow all the scholars to be completely used by the imperial court. If this scene is really realized, how powerful and prosperous the Han Dynasty will be!

Liu Che didn't see that when he said all this, there was also a kind of expectation in Dong Zhongshu's eyes.

The human world is supposed to be the human world for humans.

When that day comes, the world should be extremely beautiful.

"Can……"

Liu Che suddenly said:

"I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve this step. Hundreds of schools of thought, just like the princes from all sides of the world, how can they be willing to merge into the Taixue of our Han Dynasty, especially Confucianism, Taoism, Mononism, Dai Youtian people."

Dong Zhongshu said: "They will agree."

They couldn't help but refuse to agree.

…………

Pingyang is three hundred miles outside the city.

Jing Tianming never thought that he hadn't arrived in Pingyang City yet.

The person I'm looking for hasn't been found yet.

His way was blocked by the most unexpected person in front of him.

Wang Xuanfu's Taoist robe fluttered and he spoke calmly:

"No matter what the Mohist giant has to do now, please come to Chang'an to talk about it."

Jing Tianming's vicissitudes of life flashed in his eyes, and he said, "What if I don't agree?"

"Then..."

A sigh:

"I have to carry you over."

A big hand came out from under the sleeves of his robe and pinched Jing Tianming. (End of chapter)
