The centralists in Liangzhou have tried both ways: trying their best to integrate and taking the initiative to fight, but they all failed.
Since then, the power of the Liangzhou Central Faction has declined greatly, and the power of the local separatists has greatly increased. The Huangfu family, the Liangzhou Central Faction in the traditional sense, is in a very embarrassing situation.
You want to get close to someone and want to die for them, but they don’t think much of you and don’t even want you to die. Is it interesting to stick your hot face to someone else’s cold ass?
The answer is obvious.
It can only be said that the central route is becoming more and more unpopular in Liangzhou, and the hearts of Liangzhou people are almost really cold.
While the Huangfu family was in embarrassment, Yang Biao, an important figure in the Modern Literature School, suddenly came to visit, which surprised Huangfu Li.
As soon as Yang Biao opened his mouth, Huangfu Li felt secretly happy.
"I naturally know what happened in Luoyang City, but I don't know what the purpose of Yang Jun's words is?"
"Let's get straight to the point."
Yang Biao smiled and said: "At the moment, the Yang family hopes to work hand in hand with the Huangfu family to achieve great things together."
"ah?!"
Huangfu Li was surprised and happy, almost thinking that he heard wrongly, and said in surprise: "What Yang Jun said...is it true?"
"Can this be false?"
Yang Biao smiled and said: "What happened in Luoyang City was indeed what we did. These actions are nothing more than the fact that our Confucian orthodoxy has been criticized by a group of pseudo-students and is in a difficult situation. Mr. Huangfu should also have heard about this." ."
"indeed."
Huangfu Li nodded - he was very aware of the fact that the Ancient Literature School openly broke with the Modern Literature School and started a struggle, which even once overwhelmed the Modern Literature School. He had heard the inside story through his position.
Therefore, he naturally knew that the Jinwen School was at a disadvantage at the moment and had suffered a disastrous academic defeat.
It’s just that the advantage of tradition is too great. Except for one of the Fourteen Classics, Zuo’s Spring and Autumn Annals, all belong to the Modern Literature School. Political resources are still firmly controlled by the Modern Literature School.
The ancient literature school did not achieve complete victory for a while.
At this critical moment, the Modern Literature School suddenly extended an olive branch to Huangfu. What does this mean?
Huangfu Li gradually calmed down from his initial excitement. After thinking about it, he felt that the problem might be more complicated and could not be as simple as he thought.
The Jinwen School wants to draw the Huangfu family and the Liangzhou Central Faction behind the Huangfu family into the battlefield, but who knows whether this behavior is the rise of the Liangzhou Central Faction or the Huangfu family taking the initiative to enter hell?
Huangfu Li thought that he could not predict the future, so he hesitated when faced with the olive branch extended by Yang Biao.
"The Huangfu family is weak in the court and has no high-ranking officials. How can they conspire with the Yang family?"
Yang Biao smiled mysteriously.
"The Huangfu family does not have high officials and dignitaries, but the Yang family does. The Yang family can solve the problems that the Huangfu family worries about. The pseudo-academic sect has Lu Zhi, and how can our orthodox Confucian school not have the Huangfu family?"
Huangfu Li was shocked.
Compare Lu Zhi and Huangfu Song?
Is this... is this a good thing or a bad thing?
Huangfu Li thought about it and couldn't make up his mind, so he decided to use the drag technique.
"I am a low-key person and cannot make the decision. Can Mr. Yang allow me to discuss it with my uncle? By then, I and my uncle will definitely come to visit me."
"Why does Mr. Huangfu need to visit in person?"
Yang Biao said with a smile: "I am planning to visit Mr. Huangfu in person, talk to him face to face, tell everything. Say what you have to say, be honest with each other, and never lie."
Huangfu Li thought for a while and felt that it was okay to let the two of them talk face to face so that they could talk things out, so he nodded and agreed to contact Huangfu Song to see if there was any problem with Huangfu Song.
Yang Biao was working hard to take action, and Yang Ci also decided to take action.
Yang Biao went to win over Huangfu Song, and Yang Ci wanted to win over some more talented scholars from the ancient literature school but with low backgrounds.
Although the ancient literature school has good momentum, it still has few political resources. Most of the political resources are still in the hands of the modern literature school. The limited political resources of the ancient literature school are difficult to distribute to many people, and it is impossible to meet the needs of so many young scholars. .
So you must be anxious, right?
Don't worry, come and throw yourself into the arms of your Grandpa Yang. Grandpa Yang has many, many political resources to share with you. As long as you agree to join me, I will give you high-quality political resources!
During the struggle, in addition to Liu Bei, some young scholars with good qualifications also emerged from the Ancient Literature School, and they were all targets of Yang Ci.
Although young people are passionate and dare to move forward, they are also very eager for fame and wealth.
Yang Ci also came from that time, and had seen how countless young disciples and former officials of the Yang family pursued fame and wealth.
He knew that young people longed for passionate battles, but they also longed to be recognized and gain fame and wealth.
Every young man who has not been severely beaten by society thinks that he is so talented that he should be the best in the world, hold a lot of power, call the wind and rain, and do whatever he wants.
Of course, some people are really talented and can really do this, but most people really just think too highly of themselves and really can't do it.
Yang Ci felt that he could choose some of these young people to contact, especially those who were close to Liu Bei, and grant them some political resources that the ancient literature school could not grant them, and see their reaction. .
Do they want a school of thought, or do they want power?
Or should we insist on being optimistic about the ancient literature school and reject the temptation of power from the modern literature school?
From ancient times to the present, how many people have been able to resist the temptation of power?
Yang Ci may be academically incompetent and cannot even debate Liu Bei and has lost all face, but he believes that when it comes to understanding and controlling people's hearts, none of the ten Liu Bei are as good as him.
In the past, the ancient literature school took the lead and was forced to use what it was not good at to fight against what the ancient literature school was good at. As a result, it suffered a huge defeat, but now the modern literature school has adjusted.
Why should I compete with you on the same track?
We have our own track, and only fools compete with you!
I'm going to use what I'm best at to counterattack you.
Let's see what you do with me!
I am Yang Ci, a male lecturer who is well versed in human nature. In just three words, I want eighteen outstanding students from the Ancient Literature School to fall into my arms!
Of course, Yang Ci can't give too many resources, and what he can give now is evenly distributed.
The Yang family also cannot satisfy the urgent desire of many young scholars to enter the officialdom. Yang Ci can only give a few.
But this is not important. Yang Ci is asking for advice by doing this. He wants to take the lead and let other members of the Modern Literature School see it, and let everyone in the world see it. The Ancient Literature School so-called suppresses the Modern Literature School. What is the current situation like?
In fact, as long as the modern literature school is willing to open up some resources, the ancient literature school will soon be hit hard. Yang Ci is very aware of this, but this premise is difficult to achieve.
The conservatives in each family are powerful. Even if there are some liberals in some families, their voice is not enough to confront the conservatives, so the status quo can only be maintained for now.
Therefore, he must play a role model and lead, and through his role as a model and leader, he strives to give the liberal group a greater say, so as to allocate some resources from the modern literature school as a whole to compete with the ancient literature school.
In fact he was successful.
Almost all the scholars who were interviewed by Yang to study ancient Chinese classics failed to withstand the test of interests, and they all defected and fell into Yang's arms.
And these young scholars who fell into Yang Ci's arms aroused fierce repercussions among the ancient literature school.
Some people rebuked them publicly, but more people were reprimanding and jealous at the same time why the person chosen was not them.
There is no other reason. These young scholars want to be officials too much.
For scholars, school of thought is not important.
The theories of saints are not important.
Orthodoxy or pseudoscience, it doesn't matter.
Being an official is very important.
Why do they rack their brains to learn from the saint’s words?
In order to become an official, in order to change destiny, in order to embark on a completely different path.
In the past, the Modern Literature School did not give them a chance, and they could only try their luck with the Ancient Literature School who was willing to give them a little chance. But now that the Modern Literature School has given them a chance, and now they have official positions, what school or theory do they care about?
