Chapter 95 Give Liu Bei Inheritance
Politically, the superiority of the ancient literature school was suppressed by the emperor and eunuchs, and was tightly suppressed by the party, making it difficult to move.

The academic advantage of the ancient literature school disappeared, and even turned into a disadvantage, completely retreating, showing big eyes in front of the world.

They lost, and they lost badly.

And supporters of the Paleo school have begun to cheer.

The cheers centered on the ether, and gradually spread outwards. In the end, people who understood what happened and people who didn't understand what happened but liked to join in the fun cheered together, and the whole Luoyang began to cheer.

This [Decisive Battle at the Top of the Forbidden City] in the academic world ended with the complete victory of the ancient literature school.

The masters of the Modern Literature School and the Taixue students were defeated, and left the Taixue in despair, hiding their faces and fleeing, not daring to stay for long.

The balance of victory has completely tilted.

The Jinwen School no longer has any reason to prevent "Zuoshi Chunqiu" from taking over.

Liu Hong was very happy, and on the second day, that is, on October [-]th of the fifth year of Guanghe, he ordered "Zuo Shi Chun Qiu" to be established as an orthodox academic study, "Gongyang Chun Qiu" was dismissed, and Zheng Xuan was named "Zuo Shi Chun Qiu" doctor. Add academic officers.

Since the eighth year of the founding of Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty, "Zuoshi Chunqiu" has lost its status as an official school for a full 100 years.

And on the occasion of this humiliating 100-year anniversary, "Zuo Shi Chun Qiu" resumed its status as an official school.

The successors of the ancient literature school made unremitting efforts, carried forward the past and ushered in the future, and forged ahead bravely, and finally defeated the modern literature school at this point in time 100 years later, and achieved a decisive victory.

The restoration of Zuo Zhuan means that the strength of the ancient literature school is much stronger than when it was unable to protect its own interests a hundred years ago.

After a hundred years of deep cultivation, at a time when the modern school of literature is becoming more and more decadent, the ancient school of literature seized the opportunity to work hard and finally succeeded in turning around.

Of course, the ancient literature school is not the only one that can take part in the confrontation with "Zuo Shi Chun Qiu".

In addition to Zuo's Spring and Autumn Annals, there are also "Fei Shiyi", "Zhou Guanli", and "Guwen Shangshu", all of which can be used to compete with Jinwen Jingxue.

The ancient literature school, which won the first complete victory in the academic war and the political war, is full of energy and is ready to continue its strength to launch the next attack, striving to bring the crucial "Zhou Guanli" into the ranks of official schools.

"Zhou Guan Li" is the strongest weapon to replace "Yi Li", which is the foundation of the Jinwen School. Once this goal is successfully achieved, even if many of the Five Classics and Fourteen Schools are classics of the Jinwen School, it doesn't matter. .

Once the theoretical heights are grasped and the practical foundation is mastered, the ancient literature school will remain invincible, bit by bit it will be able to erode all the interests of the modern literature school.

There is no doubt that the modern literature school will lose!

But right now, the ancient literature school that has won the initial victory already has "Zuo Shi Chunqiu", an orthodox official classic.

With the official school, there will be a justifiable level of advancement. In the future, the country will select officials, and students who study "Zuo Shi Chun Qiu" will have a great advantage, which can almost be regarded as a lie.

Therefore, the Zheng family in Kaifeng, Cangwu Guangxin Chen family, Jia family in Fufeng Pingling, Ma family in Fufeng Maoling, and Kong family in Fufeng Maoling, which originally inherited "Zuoshi Chunqiu", benefited the most.

And in order to thank the people of the ancient literature school for their efforts to raise "Zuoshi Chunqiu" to the status of official school, the five major families did not treat everyone badly.

Everyone held a grand celebration meeting together, and held a session similar to "Discussion on Merit and Reward" at the celebration meeting, summarizing what happened during the time when the ancient Chinese classics school won a big victory and embarked on the journey again, and discussed Reward for meritorious deeds.

Obviously, the ancient literature school defeated the modern literature school not for the survival of the country, not for fairness and justice, but to become the modern literature school.

Therefore, it is necessary to reward meritorious deeds.

This is a reward for meritorious deeds, and Lu Zhi and Liu Bei's mentors and apprentices who contributed the most are the first among them, and they are the first candidates who must be rewarded.

Although it was Liu Bei who charged forward, because of his mentor-student relationship with Lu Zhi, everyone generally believed that everything Liu Bei did was supported by Lu Zhi behind his back.

Because of their special status and contributions, they have received significant benefits.

Because Lu Zhi himself studied under Ma Rong, a master of ancient Chinese classics, and had a deep research on Zuo's Spring and Autumn Annals, his family, the Lu family in Zhuo County, Zhuo County, was publicly recognized as the inheritance family of "Zuo's Spring and Autumn Annals".

It means that from this moment on, the Lu family in Zhuo County, Zhuo County has the same status as the five major families, and can formally set up schools and teach apprentices, and pass on the knowledge of "Zuo Shi Chun Qiu" to their children and disciples.

And in the process of selecting officials by the court, he will have a crucial decision-making power, can recommend his family's children and disciples to the court, and can basically be appointed.

As a new family inheriting classics, the Lu family in Zhuo County, Zhuo County will receive a major promotion in status and will directly become the top gentry family - the House of Fanyue.

Lu Zhi's status was instantly different.

And Liu Bei, as an important disciple of Lu Zhi, is also the most shining star of the ancient literature school in this turmoil. recognized and accepted by the public.

Then, at a critical moment in this link, Zheng Xuan, the leader of the school, suddenly put forward his own suggestion.

As everyone recognized as the head of the School of Classical Classics, he appreciated Liu Bei's efforts as the sharpest talker and the strongest actor of the School of Classical Literature in a series of turmoil, so he proposed to Lu Zhi to give Liu Bei a real reward .

Liu Bei is still young, not stable enough, and his academic level is not yet at the level of a master, but in Zheng Xuan's view, without Liu Bei's charge, it would not be so easy for the ancient literature school to win.

Lu Zhi's master and apprentice have made great contributions to this unprecedented victory. If Liu Bei cannot be given enough rewards, then everyone will have doubts and people's hearts will not be stable.

Fighting for the school will not be rewarded at all, so how can the ancient literature school appease people's hearts?

Therefore, Zheng Xuan suggested that Lu Zhi choose an appropriate time, when he thought Liu Bei was already a mature and reliable Confucian scholar, to divide the inheritance of Lu's "Zuo Shi Chunqiu" into two, and leave one part for his family to continue to inherit. , and the other was given to Liu Bei.

Zheng Xuan believes that the entire school of ancient literature should recognize Liu Bei's achievements and that he is qualified to be the inheritor of "Zuoshi Chunqiu", and that the Liu family in Zhuo County, Zhuo County should also be one of the inheritors of "Zuoshi Chunqiu".

At that time, the five major families will develop into seven major families, and the influence of ancient Chinese classics will be strengthened.

Regarding this suggestion, many people were surprised at that time, including Yuan Wei and Xun Shuang. They obviously never expected that Zheng Xuan would make such a suggestion on this occasion.

After all, this is a major event inherited by a family, and it is a matter of great importance for a family to reach the top and become the Fanyue family. Even if it is to be raised, it should be raised on a more formal occasion.

Zheng Xuan never sought anything for his family.

Although everyone agrees with Zheng Xuan's leadership position, this aspect has not been involved. It seems that he doesn't care about his family's inheritance at all.

But he made this suggestion for Liu Bei.
