It was precisely because of this special situation that the upper-level leaders of the Ancient Literature School at that time needed to use Liu Bei to understand the ideological trends and political tendencies of these young scholars during political struggles.
Liu Bei actually assumed the responsibility of the Propaganda Minister of the Ancient Literature School, and in fact became the bridge between the upper echelons of the Ancient Literature School and the majority of young scholars.
This situation makes Liu Bei have the appeal and mobilization power for grassroots scholars that is no less than or even greater than that of some upper-level figures. When he gives an order, there are definitely not a few people who are willing to follow his call and take action.
So in fact, Liu Bei is not only the "Propaganda Minister" appreciated and trusted by the upper class of the Ancient Literature School, but also the leader of the young faction of the Ancient Literature School.
Although this "young man" is not recognized by them at all.
In their eyes, even if there is a Young Master Sect, it is composed of their own children and outstanding disciples. Only those with a closer relationship can be considered a Young Master Sect.
If other people are included, do the tens of thousands of scholars in Luoyang City who do not belong to the modern literature school belong to the ancient literature school?
Isn't that a mess?
But this is what Liu Bei expected.
He hoped that the young scholars of the Ancient Literature School would be more inclusive, and it would be best to include all the young scholars in Luoyang who were not accepted by the Modern Literature School.
They hate the modernist school, and their anger is the best fuel to burn it all down.
After Liu Bei instigated that shocking battle, these people felt a strong sense of pleasure. They watched the modern literature school that looked down on them and even despised them were knocked to the ground by the ancient literature school, and they felt that their souls were about to collapse.
So on the one hand, they became firm supporters of the ancient literature school, and on the other hand, they firmly hoped that the ancient literature school and the modern literature school would go into full-scale war, destroy the modern literature school in a short period of time, and let all the old people of the modern literature school throw their shit on the streets. .
Under Liu Bei's deliberate guidance, the young scholars became furious.
The clarion call for counterattack was sounded. The clarion call for counterattack was already sounded when the upper echelons of the Ancient Literature School were not prepared for this.
They spontaneously launched fierce attacks on the old men of the Modern Literature School in Taixue, on the streets, indoors and outdoors in all occasions, including artificially creating odor attacks in Yang Ci's mansion, making Yang Ci physically The stench is overwhelming.
Yang Ci hid in the palace and did not dare to go home. The Yang family also did not dare to raise their heads under the surging offensive of the scholars of the ancient literature school. The other big figures of the modern literature school were all in danger because of this unprecedented trend. Feeling frightened by the violent impact of the current.
This shock wave was indeed a bit too powerful, so that while the Modern Literature School was frightened, the upper echelons of the Ancient Literature School themselves also felt that the situation was a bit beyond their expectations.
So they asked Liu Bei to join the consultation meeting, hoping that Liu Bei, who had always been a "wise general", could provide some effective suggestions to the ancient literature school.
As a result, Liu Bei also complained to them with a sad face.
"It's not that the disciples didn't try to dissuade them. It was because too many people were provoked by the Jinwen School. Both teachers and disciples were criticized by Yang Ci. As soon as the news came out, many people were angry and felt that Yang Ci He is a complete old thief.
They feel that the other party has already made a fatal move. If we are still too slow to break up with them and fight to the death, we can only sit back and watch the teacher and his disciples die together. The teacher is a great scholar in the world, and his reputation spreads far and wide, and the scholars in the school will not Maybe they just sit back and ignore it. "
Liu Bei pulled Lu Zhi to block the gun with him, changing his sight and focus, and successfully led everyone's thinking astray.
The problem is not with the ancient literature school itself, but with the modern literature school.
Liu Bei tried to express such consciousness and win enough supporters among the upper echelons of the Ancient Literature School.
It must be said that it was Yang Ci himself who was stupid. Whether the two factions were fighting or the two were fighting each other, how could anyone just start it off right away?
Originally, he had no good words to say, but in the end, Yang Ci pointed the knife at him.
The old guy actually opened fire directly on Lu Zhi and Liu, regardless of life and death, and asked Liu Hong to kill both their master and apprentice.
In this way, even if Liu Bei doesn't do anything, Lu Zhi's reputation and Liu Bei's popularity are enough to make the ancient literature school angry, let alone Liu Bei's instigation?
Yang Ci didn't even act anymore, the eating scene was too ugly.
"The disciple also feels that Yang is going too far. He doesn't say anything and wants to kill the teacher and the disciple. The disciple's death is not a pity. The teacher is a great scholar in the world and has made great contributions to the Han Dynasty. Yang Ci actually wants to kill the teacher. , in this case, how can the disciple sit back and ignore it?"
Perfect reason, perfect excuse.
Even if someone told them that Liu Bei incited the scholars of the Ancient Literature School to cause trouble, what would happen?
What a reasonable reason for a disciple to get angry because of his teacher!
So Liu Bei said this, and the big guys including Zheng Xuan had nothing to do.
Lu Zhi also sighed and shook his head repeatedly - his personal relationship with Yang Biao was actually quite good, and even Liu Bei was praised by Yang Biao.
The song "Unexpectedly Visiting Yang Wenxian" that spread throughout the streets of Luoyang is the eternal testimony of this friendship.
But who would have thought that in just one year, the situation would change suddenly, and the two originally unclear academic concepts of the Ancient Literature School and the Modern Literature School would suddenly turn into political entities and launch a fierce confrontation. It has reached the point where they are clearly separated and have no contact with each other until old age and death.
All this happened so fast, let alone Lu Zhi, Yang Biao didn't react.
The one who wanted to kill Lu Zhi and Liu Bei was Yang Biao's father, the patriarch of the Yang family in Hongnong and the leader of the Jinwen school. He could not resist.
Lu Zhi is his good friend, and Liu Bei is the junior he admires.
The respected father wants to kill his friends and juniors.
His friends and admiring juniors will also fight back with all their strength.
He was caught in it, feeling confused and in pain.
However, once the trend of the times rolls around, the individual's role is somewhat insignificant. What's more, Yang Biao has never been a trend-setter of the times. He is just a mediocre person who follows the trend.
So later he saw through it, took it lightly, and accepted it.
How can one person's power be compared with the tide of the times?
The most important thing is the interests of the group to which you belong.
So, Ziqian, I'm sorry.
For the upper-level leaders of the Ancient Literature School, Liu Bei's "lying down" also meant that they had lost control of the situation to some extent.
Not to mention the subsequent collective petition by hundreds of young scholars.
The young scholars demanded that they resolutely defend Lu Zhi and Liu Bei, resolutely defend the leaders of the ancient literature school, never admit defeat, never bow their heads, and make those despicable and dirty clowns of the modern literature school pay the price.
In this regard, the big guys of the Ancient Literature School still hoped to control the situation a little, so they came forward in person, hoping to make the young leeks calm down.
The results were not good.
When Zheng Xuan came forward and asked everyone to treat the matter calmly, the young scholars firmly disagreed.
"They slander our school so much, how can we sit back and ignore it? Can Duke Zheng accept their slander?"
Zheng Xuan was speechless.
When Fu Qian came forward to hope that everyone would calm down, the young scholars could not agree with him.
"The old thief in this article is so ambitious that the butcher's knife has been placed on our necks. Do we want to lead our necks to be slaughtered?"
I am speechless and sincere.
When Lu Zhi came forward to hope that everyone could treat the matter calmly, the young scholars became even more angry.
"Are we going to watch Lu Gong being harmed by him? We will defend Lu Gong to the death! We will defend the school to the death! We will fight it to the end!!"
Liu Bei's fighting thoughts have well infiltrated the grassroots of the Ancient Literature School, because he once said that the Ancient Literature School is what it is today because of brave struggle. Without brave struggle, there would be no today's situation.
So, fight!
But for the senior management, this situation is very difficult for them.
We have no intention of fighting them to the death!
This matter can be coordinated internally and then we can see the situation! Take your time!
If you come right up, you will confront them and overthrow them all. We are afraid!
The upper echelons of the ancient literature school have actually completed the psychological transformation of the Wenyue family, and some people have even been seated at the Wenyue family level. In fact, they are separated from the vast number of young scholars from humble backgrounds.
They were very dissatisfied, worried, and even afraid of the violent mentality of young scholars.
However, in the face of the bustling crowd, their appearance was completely ineffective, and instead intensified the anger of the young scholars.
The actions of the young scholars escalated.
Not only did they launch a chemical attack on Yang's residence to make them stink, they also began to submit memorials to the court and the emperor on a large scale.
Those who were qualified to submit the memorials themselves, while those who were not qualified went to the imperial palace to submit their memorials. The palace of Sili Xiaowei was surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside. The scale made Sili Xiaowei Guo Hong frightened.
Now these people can sit quietly and hand out musical notes. In the future, will they also be able to wear military uniforms and hand him knives?
And why does this recipe feel a bit unexpectedly familiar? Is it my imagination?
After the modern literature school came to their senses, they also organized some manpower to fight against the ancient literature school. However, the navy army they bought with money was no match for the huge tap water army and was no match.
Just when the situation was becoming more and more difficult for both modern and ancient writers, something unexpected happened.
The emperor took action.
