    In the late autumn of the ninth month of the lunar calendar, the sun is shining brightly, and the airflow from Siberia dominates the Yellow River Basin in Asia. There is no trace of moisture in the air, leaving only a bitter cold.

    Outside Xudu City, a huge circular venue rises from the ground, more than ten meters high and more than two kilometers deep.  Surrounding the site is a circle of high platforms built of masonry and cement, one by one, ascending step by step. There are sixty-six and thirty-six floors in total. Each floor is half a meter high. It is just the right place for one person to sit on the steps.  One week, overlooking the central circular venue.

    The center of the circular venue is a platform about two meters high and about 100 meters square.  On top of the platform, there is another one or two meter high platform, three or four meters square, which is exactly the place for speeches or medal awards.  If you stand here and shout loudly, the sound waves will spread in all directions and converge when they meet the surrounding walls, creating a natural sound concentration effect.

    This is the dojo Li Zhe built specifically for the Taoism Conference. The entire building can accommodate tens of thousands of people. The architectural style imitates the circular building of the ancient Roman Coliseum, fully considering the ornamental factors and practicality. It is completely like an ancient  version of the theater!

    Standing on it to give a speech, looking around, countless controversial eyes gathered, it felt like facing the whole world.  Vast, solemn and profound.

    At this time, it was already crowded and bustling with people discussing the Tao, and eloquent voices kept coming.

    "The Shang Shu is the one who ascends to the heaven, and the one who writes the book is like this. The heaven hangs down the literary image and arranges the rules, and the book is also like the movement of the sky."  )

    "In the past, the saints established the universe based on the news of yin and yang to unify the heaven and the earth. The form was born from the intangible, and the universe was peaceful. Therefore, it is said: There is Taiyi, there is Taichu, there is Taishi, and there is Taisu. Taiyi is also  , no Qi is seen. The one that is too early is the beginning of Qi. The one that is too simple is the beginning of form. The one that is too plain is the beginning of quality. The shape and quality of Qi are there but not separated, so it is called Hunlun. Hunlun is the word.  All things are mixed together and not separated.

    "Otherwise, Confucians respect the ancient law, so how can they presume that what you say is all false accusations. It is not the work of the Son of Man, and the righteousness of the sages and sages has been tainted by you!"

    "No, no, no! You are the big ones, and you are beyond your reach. Things in this world change with time, how can there be anything that remains unchanged forever! If there is warp, there must be latitude, and latitude is a tributary of warp, which leads to side meanings.  . If there is no weft, how can we know how the words of the sages apply to our time?"

    ¡­¡­

    All kinds of debates were extremely fierce. On the first day, the Dao Discussion Conference entered a state of intense intensity. The two major schools of classics in the world, the Modern Literature School and the Ancient Literature School, started tit-for-tat at the conference almost as soon as they met.

    The ancient literature school refers to the academic school that uses Confucian classics before Qin Shihuang unified China and studies ancient classics. It originated from Liu Xin, inherited from Jia Kui and Ma Rong, and spread to Lu Zhi, Song Zhong and others. It has become a great trend and has begun.  Its path of conquering the world's classics and thoughts.  The Kansai School is the most orthodox in the world today. Sima Hui and Song Zhong of Jingzhou are both heirs of this school.

    The modern literature school is the mainstream of Confucian classics in the Han Dynasty, referring to the school formed by the study of Confucian classics between the two Han Dynasties.  Its emergence can be traced back to the ideological policies of Qin Shihuang. Its theoretical character in interpreting scriptures is extremely creative, free to use, and full of religious and theological implications. It serves the rulers. This is unique to the academic atmosphere during the Han Dynasty.  Performance.  In particular, Dong Zhongshu's Gongyang Chunqiu Study was the one with the greatest achievement.

    Before that time, the popularity of Jinwen school made great contributions to the spread of Confucianism and gradually occupied a mainstream position, and it was most popular.  However, its integration with religious theology was too close, and its weft-making was too casual, which greatly affected the seriousness and orthodoxy of Confucian classics. By the end of the Han Dynasty, it had gradually been overtaken by the classical classics that admired the simple style of the pre-Qin period.

    At the end of the Han Dynasty, the emergence of Zheng Xuan, a master of Confucianism, mixed hundreds of schools of thought and became a first-class one. There was a trend of unification. However, the spread of his ideas had not yet become a mainstream and was still in its infancy. This was the development of Confucian academics at this time.  situation.

    No matter when, the dispute over academic orthodoxy is more important than life for a true scholar!  Therefore, not long after the Tao Discussion Conference started, it became a battlefield for ancient classics and bronze classics. The atmosphere was so intense that even though it was late autumn in October, it was like being in a furnace.

    At this time, the debate has been going on for more than half a day, with each party taking turns to show off their talents, talking endlessly, and making headlines!  At this moment on the stage, it was Master Zheng Xuan's favorite disciples Guoyuan, Guan Ning, Song Zhong and others who were debating. When the debate was in full swing, suddenly there was a burst of joy at the entrance of the circular dojo.

    Everyone was dissatisfied. When they heard the sound, they looked around and saw bells and drums ringing at the gate. Honor guards came one after another. The first team rode horses, four horses in a row, walking slowly on small steps. Both men and horses were heavily armored.  The lance is raised, and the whole body is shining with light.?, extremely powerful.

    Behind them are the infantry, but the armor on their bodies is more exaggerated than that of the knights. The whole person is covered from top to bottom without revealing any figure. There is also a vicious mask on the face, only a pair of eyes are exposed, and he holds a large shield, a huge ax and a heavy hammer in his hand, looking like a sinister figure.  , murderous intent rolled in.

    After this team passed, another team of graceful palace maids and attendants passed. Finally, at the end of the team, a dragon chariot appeared, which was two stories high and pulled by eight divine white horses. It slowly drove in. It turned out that it was the Celestial Master.  Ming Wang Li Zhe has arrived!

    This is the official guard of honor used by Li Zhe when he travels now. There are more than 400 horses and more than 1,500 people in total. This is still a reduced version of the equipment when he is not traveling far away. If he is traveling far away, it will be even more exaggerated and cumbersome.  .  By this time, Li Zhe's various treatments were completely comparable to those of the Emperor, without any scruples.

    As soon as Li Zhe appeared, the attention of the entire audience immediately shifted. Everyone knew that Li Zhe himself was a scholar and a great scholar.  The early publication of "The Theory of the Universe and Stars" is a work that has not been published before, and is thought to be unimagined by predecessors. It can be called a profound and profound work that changes people's hearts. Even the ancient sages could not match it in its profoundness and grandeur.

    In society, many people have now spontaneously studied his works, forming a Wangxue craze and becoming an unstoppable trend.

    Now that King Li Zhe is here, does he also want to stretch his talents?

    Thinking of this, everyone immediately became excited.

    Sure enough, after Wang drove around the arena for a week, the dragon chariot finally stopped at the high platform. After Li Zhe got out of the car, he went straight to the high platform and climbed the steps.

    At the end, on the high platform in the center, a majestic figure spread out. Although he is only one person, he has the potential to overwhelm the heroes in the Taoist temple: "Everyone! I am alone in the palace, listening to the speeches of the masters. The streets in Xudu are empty, and they are all heading towards the Tao.  I feel so relieved that I am not alone in my path!"

    When everyone heard this, they all nodded in admiration. No matter how domineering Li Zhe was when he first started, since he moved to Xudu, he has clearly defined the system, established imperial examinations, reformed the military system, and established rewards. He has also personally published books and promoted education.  It is becoming more and more stable, and it is more and more showing the momentum of a great country regardless of the trickle of water, and hundreds of rivers merge into the sea. As a king, he seems to be much more popular than many princes at this time!

    "But" Unexpectedly, Li Zhe's voice paused, and the strange peaks stood out.

    When everyone below heard his turn, their heartbeats immediately hung in the air. Is this guy going to make some trouble today?

    "Looking at today's academic world, Confucian classics are spread throughout the government and the public, and they are unified. Legalists, Mohists, military strategists, famous strategists In the pre-Qin period, hundreds of schools of thought were so brilliant. Even the Master was just one of many sources back then.  , but now they are all dim and withered, and tens of thousands of horses are muttering together. Sigh! Master, whoever doesn't lament is crying out!"

    "We, the descendants of the Yan and Huang dynasties, have inherited the remnants of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, and the remnants of the sages of our ancestors. Until now, there is only one Confucian school in the world. It has withered so far, and it is shameful to keep arguing about the distinction between ancient and modern texts all day long.  Don¡¯t be ashamed! Are these Confucian scholars the only ones left among China¡¯s celebrities? In the past, Taoists, Mohists, Legalists, military strategists, political strategists, celebrities, Yin and Yang familiesmany Chinese remnants are all here.  Has it disappeared? China has a history of thousands of years, but today there are only a few Confucian sects supporting it. It is sad and deplorable! The Liu family has caused a lot of trouble!"

    Li Zhe gritted his teeth and blurted out these words, which immediately woke up the entire audience. What did Li Zhe mean by these words?  Nowadays, Confucianism has become the mainstream. This has been a fact for hundreds of years. Hundreds of schools of thought have been suppressed and gradually declined, becoming the lowest among the people. This is also the norm in today's society.  Could it be that today Li Zhe wants to single-handedly reverse the situation and talk about the contention of a hundred schools of thought again?

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT out of which the wars between countries were endless, the world was withered, and the people were in ruins.  The sages and philosophers each expressed their opinions, described the ideals of the world, and sought a way out for the people in troubled times. Only then did a hundred schools of thought flourish.  Nowadays, after hundreds of years of unification, the world's scholars have long been accustomed to the situation of great unification, and only then has the flourishing age of Confucianism come. Does Li Zhe now want the world to return to a world without order?

    It¡¯s absolutely impossible!  For a time, the ambitions of the defenders of Taoism were aroused among the scholars. Even though Li Zhe was the king of the world and his authority could not be suppressed, they still had to defend themselves. Li Zhe must not be allowed to disrupt this prosperous age of Confucianism!  This kind of idea took over the mainstream in the arena for a while, and the entire arena was filled with a majestic and murderous momentum.

    Of course, secretly, but no one knows how many people are secretly laughing at Li Zhe¡¯s enlightening words.  How could the remaining lines of hundreds of Chinese schools of thought be cut off so easily?

    "I am here today, but I am here to promote Gu's way. Here, I am not a prince, you just treat me as an ordinary scholar!"

    Li Zhe¡¯s words continued to come, but most of the people below now felt: Hum!  hypocrisypretend!

    ¡° Li Zhe¡¯s deep and long voice was heard faintly in the dojo again, grabbing everyone¡¯s hearts in one fell swoop.

    "The lonely way is called the way of heaven. It is all-encompassing and everything in the world is undecided!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to (this site) to subscribe and reward. Your support is mine.  The biggest motivation.)
