Chapter 1456 Chess Game


    ??Although Lu Bu saw through Fei Qian''s little thoughts, Lu Bu didn''t have too many stress reactions, and even sent Fei Qian out when he was leaving.


    In the end, Lu Bu did not express his willingness or unwillingness on the spot, but according to Fei Qian''s feeling, Lu Bu still cared about the name "Whip of God", at least he couldn''t help but utter it several times during the process.


    ?It is impossible for anyone to travel long distances and take many months to do something like this. It always requires some time to think about the buffer, so Fei Qian didn''t mind Lu Bu''s hesitation...


    For most people, maybe Lu Bu followed the footsteps of the Northern Huns all the way west, obtained the true scriptures, and became a true Buddha. Well, that''s what it means anyway. It''s better than struggling on the territory of China, right?


    ?Of course, Lu Bu is not young anymore. If he leaves like this, he may never be able to return to China again...


    At this point, it is impossible for Fei Qian to go back to the time in Luoyang, and Lu Bu also knows this, so there must be a gap between the two people, but who can have no gap with whom? Even if they have been married for many years, it is inevitable that they will share the same bed but have different dreams, not to mention when there is a conflict of interest?


    Fei Qian silently looked back at Lu Bu''s mansion, then turned his head and lightly kicked the horse''s belly.


    The war horse stepped forward briskly. Regardless of the geographical direction, whether it is east or west, or even south or north, as long as you work hard in one direction, you will always be facing the front!


    Fei Qian had to rush back to Pingyang. The exam originally scheduled for the spring was postponed again and again because of the launch of Yuan Shao''s campaign, but it was finally held when the dust of the war settled...


    This is how people''s hearts are. When Fei Qian and Yuan Shao couldn''t tell the winner, it was like a strong wind and dust, and the noise was rising. Some people even obviously waited and hesitated, until the winner was decided. They gathered one after another, expressing their loyalty, preaching that the outcome was determined early and they were optimistic about Zhengxi, etc.


    ??It''s all a farce, and these people are small characters in the farce. Although they are annoying, you can ignore these guys most of the time, but they are indispensable. After all, these people are also part of the background of the political group Zhengxi.


    April, look at the sun.


    ?Fei Qian rushed to Pingyang.


    Traditionally, officials in the Han Dynasty had a rest system, and they took five days off. In some places in the Han Dynasty, civil servants even adopted a system of two days off every five days, and there were alternate days off, compensatory days off, etc. According to the civil servants’ retirement, The distance between home is slightly adjusted.


    ?Isn’t this just an ordinary weekend holiday system?


    Some people may think it is nothing, but the officials of the Han Dynasty laughed and said nothing.


    In fact, the biggest difference is that the rest time under the Han Dynasty official''s rest system can be adjusted freely, and it only needs to be reported to the superior for filing...


    what does that mean?


    It is equivalent to officials in the Han Dynasty who can arrange their own "Golden Week" or even a Super "Golden Month" at any time!


    For example, if you work for five days from the 11th to the 15th of the first lunar month, you will have two days off on the 11th and 17th of the first lunar month, which is normal operation; if you work for 15 days from the 16th to the 30th of February, you will have five days off and two days off. , you should take six days off, and then you can take a break from the first day of March to the sixth day, which is a slightly more comfortable holiday; then if you continue to work from the first day of March to the fifteenth day of May, it means that you have three days of leave. Ten days of paid vacation time…


    Therefore, in the Han Dynasty, there were many officials who worked long hours for a period of time and then had fun for a period of time.


    ?For example, when Fei Qian went to Pingyang Shoushan Academy to give a lecture, many officials from nearby Pingyang specially adjusted their rest time and came to listen.


    At this time, nearly 2,000 students had gathered in the Shoushan Academy, including 14 Ph.D.s in Confucian classics, and eight additional administrators, including Jijiu. Although the scale was smaller than the 30,000 Luoyang Imperial Academy at the time of Emperor Ling, The gap is still very large, but considering that this is Bingbei, and the Shoushan Academy has been in constant turmoil this year, and the reputation of General Fei Qian for conquering the West has only gradually spread in the past two years, this result is already Quite gratifying.


    What''s more, the princes everywhere are not fools. Well, except for Dong Zhuo, who has a broken head, schools are being built everywhere. In addition to the Shoushan Academy in the north, Jingxiang, Liu Biao built Jingzhou Taixue, and Cao Cao established it in Xuchang. Xingdu Academy, Yuan Shao re-established Jixia Academy in Yecheng, and even Yuan Shu established an Imperial Academy in Shouchun...


    ?Therefore, under such circumstances, it is actually possible to get rid of the shackles of the local princes and come to merge with the North Academy. There are really not many people. With the current scale, Linghu and others have actually achieved great results.


    The work of re-engraving the "Xiping Stone Sutra" was already in progress. After Fei Qian returned to Pingyang, he secretly changed into his regular clothes and wandered to the Stone Sutra Forest under the Shoushan Academy to have a look. Secretly lamenting and regretting...


    ??If it can really be preserved for future generations, maybe some kind of museum will be established, and then Mondays will be closed as usual, and appointments will be made to visit on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. If you don’t make an appointment, you will rush back or something...


    Fei Qian thought a little unreliably, and slowly walked into the Shoushan Hall with Linghu Shao, the great priest of the academy.


    Linghu Shao now looks a bit like the president of a later university. He is not a serious political figure, but he has some status in the political arena. Even if he meets the county magistrate, his rank and salary are high and low, but his status is There is not much difference, and it feels a bit like the leader of Qingliu.


    Mr. Sima Hui, a good gentleman, was in the main hall early. When he saw Fei Qian coming, he stood up from the mat and bowed his hands. The students in the main hall also saluted Fei Qian one after another. Fei Qian also returned the gift, and then calmly walked onto the high platform in the center.


    ?It is said to be a high platform, but it is actually just a wooden platform with two or three steps. There is a screen behind the platform as a partition, and in front of the screen are tables and mats, where people who come to teach and preach sit. All the decorations are the same as usual, and there is not much change because today is Fei Qian''s lecture. After all, everyone comes to the hall mainly to listen to the lecture, not to watch someone put on a performance... ?????Seeing Fei Qian sit down, beside him Sima Yi, the lecturer, sat upright, picked up the hammer, and knocked on the small chime. With a crisp "ding" sound, the students in the hall also sat upright, with their heads straight and their robes straight, and waited solemnly.


    Today Fei Qian gave a lecture, so the candidate for the lecturer was also specially selected, and later Sima Yi, who had performed relatively well recently, was chosen to take over. The lecturer is an assistant. He has to help maintain order in the classroom, serve tea and water, put away lesson plans, etc. If the weather is hot, he may even have to help fan himself.


    Although it can be regarded as a job of serving people, the minister generally has the opportunity to show his face and gain reputation, so Sima Yi''s ability to become the minister actually relied on Sima Hui''s old face, plus Sima Yi''s He also achieved good results in a competition, so he had the opportunity to stand out among the students, which became a small resume for him to embark on his official career.


    The officials of the Han Dynasty basically followed the same process, just like the children of carpenters know how to saw wood, and the children of coopers know how to plan wood chips. As a class with a monopoly of knowledge, they read and learn scriptures while relying on the officialdom, serving as some disciples or retainers. It is a small official like Shu Zuo who comes to increase political experience, which is the only way for most children of the gentry.


    Seeing that everyone was gradually quieting down, Sima Yi turned to Fei Qian and saluted again, which meant that Fei Qian could officially start preaching...


    Fei Qian nodded slightly, then took out a scroll from his sleeve and placed it on the table with a soft "snap" sound.


    The government wants to promote paperless office, er, wrong, wood-free office. Of course, it must first promote the use of paper. In the Han Dynasty, paper was still a high-end thing in the minds of most people. High-end consumer goods that can only be used once, unlike wooden tablets and bamboo slips, can be cut and reused. Therefore, even though Fei Qian has established a papermaking workshop in Pingyang, it has still not been able to fully promote sales, let alone Needless to say, students use it on a large scale.


    The main reason why the promotion of wood-free bamboo offices is not smooth is that most of those who have already held official positions are accustomed to wooden slips and bamboo slips, and paper is a high-end gift for these people, not an ordinary consumer product, so Fei Qian thought In order for Woodless Bamboo Office to be able to develop smoothly in the future, it is also essential for the younger generation to have a subtle influence on it.


    Therefore, Fei Qian deliberately brought a printed book from a bookstore in the city and put it on the table when he was preaching, instead of holding two or three volumes of bamboo slips and spreading them out like the previous preachers did.


    Fei Qian casually opened the book, then wiped it with his hand and pressed it down so that the book could lie smoothly on the table.


    "Today we talk about filial piety. "The Classic of Filial Piety" says that filial piety is the foundation of virtue and the source of teaching..."


    At the beginning of the founding of the Han Dynasty, filial piety was emphasized, and there was even a proper term called promoting filial piety and integrity. This shows that "filial piety" is a common knowledge in the Han Dynasty, and it is also a cornerstone of the entire society. It cannot be avoided, and it is also a cornerstone of the entire society. Don''t mess around rashly.


    In his previous life, Fei Qian also read a lot of time-traveling online articles. Many protagonists traveled to ancient times and in order to reverse traditional thinking and strive to put China on the road to modernization, they talked about the principles of freedom and democracy with the ancients. He was actually able to scare the ancients into being stunned. Whenever he saw this kind of plot, Fei Qian could only smile...


    People''s thoughts are born out of the social environment and are also restricted by the social environment. There will definitely be some who exceed the former, but most people are still consistent with the mainstream of society.


    ??In a situation where the entire feudal society has not yet been fully established, and there are still serfs and slave classes remaining, talking about democracy and freedom can still be recognized by a group of upper-class vested interests. Isn’t this a joke?


    ?Of course, you don’t have to just go with the flow and never get ahead of the curve. The problem is that you have to eat the food one bite at a time and walk the road step by step. If you make a big leap, you will inevitably tear the egg, or even break it. Therefore, after Fei Qian established the Academy, he never tried to make any big arguments in front of these doctors of Confucian classics. Until now, he came with the momentum of defeating Yuan Shao. He had a certain reputation and power and could represent a considerable number of people. He was sitting in the main hall of the Shouyama Academy when the interest group spoke. Moreover, even under such circumstances, when Fei Qian tried to enlighten some thoughts, he still used the Filial Piety Sutra as a cover to hide his secrets. The following private goods…


    After briefly quoting some words from the Filial Piety Classic, Fei Qian stopped. He raised his head and looked around for a week, then changed the topic and did not continue to explain the meaning of the scripture, because the Filial Piety Classic was originally one of the basic must-learn for these students, and there were too many Emphasis and repeated explanations do not attract the attention of these people.


    "When I was studying in Jingxiang, I was fortunate enough to be taught by Pang Degong, and I understood the principles of the scriptures. We should apply what we have learned and integrate knowledge and practice. Today, the world is covered with dust and the Central Plains is in chaos. It is like the elders of the family are in trouble and the ancestors of the clan are wronged. It is indeed gratifying to be poor in the study of classics and to be old at chapters and sentences. However, as a young student, you should apply what you have learned to overcome the great disaster and rejuvenate the country. Therefore, today I will not teach you how to find chapters and extract sentences, but I will teach you the knowledge of the world. Righteousness!”


    "What is righteousness?" Fei Qian looked around again and saw that most of the students were listening attentively. Even Linghu Shao and Sima Hui on the side were nodding. He nodded slightly and continued, " When the Han Dynasty founded the country, it was based on filial piety as the foundation of the country. Filial piety is the foundation of virtue and the basis of righteousness. It is the difference between human beings and beasts. When people are born, they are raised by their relatives, so they know how to love their relatives. This is filial piety. Therefore, Confucius said, "Filial piety to a husband begins with caring for relatives." Mencius said: "I am as old as the old, and I am as young as the young." A benevolent person loves his neighbor, and a loyal person loves his ruler, both begin with filial piety. The meaning of the Filial Piety Classic is that people should first understand the meaning of filial piety, then know and practice love for their relatives, and then love for their family, their clan, their king, and their world!”


    "Filial piety is born out of love, known through teaching, and understood through deeds. If a son does not teach, he does not know the meaning of filial piety. If he does not practice filial piety, he does not know the meaning of loyalty. Therefore, filial piety towards relatives is always present, and it may not necessarily mean love for the clan and the family. Sir, when it comes to the country, you must first teach and then act..." Fei Qian spoke eloquently, his voice was sonorous and powerful, "Therefore, young people must first be filial and then act, so that the family will be safe, the country will be stable, and the world will be peaceful!"


    "To talk about the strength of a country, we need to talk about the age of the country''s scholars. When the country''s officials are old, they always think about the past, and they are nostalgic for the past. Everything is as it is, so they just follow the rules, do not make progress, cling to the weak and cling to the deficiencies, and the situation becomes more and more difficult; when the country''s officials are young, they always think about the future. Therefore, hope is born, and everything is done before, so one often dares to break the rules, bravely pioneer, and take heroic actions, making the country more powerful."


    ?Fei Qian saw that the preparations were almost done, so he changed his appearance and began to mix in a lot of private goods...


    "Therefore, the country''s scholars must not be old. If they are not old, they will lose their dignity and lose their country easily, just like the former Qin Dynasty. Qian gradually raised his voice, and the roaring sound echoed in the hall, "Now we are getting older, but you are still young! Therefore, the responsibility of today''s country lies with us, and the responsibility of tomorrow''s country does not belong to others, but all to you young people. Today, we are riding horses Stepping onto the Yin Mountain, tomorrow you and other young men will be able to graze the world! The world is so vast that it is convenient for you to think about it! Your thoughts are the territory of the Han Dynasty!"


    After Fei Qian finished speaking, there was silence in the hall, and there seemed to be some lingering sounds echoing in the air. Fei Qian blinked his eyes twice, and just when he was beginning to feel a little uneasy, cheers and applause suddenly broke out among the students. Many students were so excited that they couldn''t control themselves, with tears streaming down their cheeks, but they still cheered and applauded desperately...
