"Xiangyang Academy?"

Yu Xian was startled when he heard this, "Is there a Xiangyang Academy so early?"

Then Yu Xian came to his senses.

That's right, from the perspective of time, Liu Biao should indeed start working on this matter.

Speaking of Xiangyang Academy, we have to mention Dong Zhuo's magical manipulation.

When the Kwantung lords raised their troops, Sun Jian, the governor of Jingzhou Wang Rui, repeatedly looked down on him, so he teamed up with Cao Yin, the prefect of Wuling, to force him to death.

Dong Zhuo didn't know what kind of nerve he got, but he chose Liu Biao, a clan member of the Han Dynasty, as the successor of Jingzhou governor.

After Liu Biao was appointed, he rushed to Jingzhou quickly. First, he married the daughter of the Cai family of Jingzhou, and then got the support of another rich family, the Kuai family.

After controlling the local situation, Liu Biao immediately revealed his minions.

First, with the help of Kuai Yue, 55 clan leaders were trapped and killed, and then they attacked their tribes to completely eliminate future troubles.

Later, Kuai Yue and Pang Ji entered Xiangyang unarmed, claiming to surrender Zhang Hu and Chen Sheng who occupied Xiangyang City.

After Xiangyang City was taken, Liu Biao became famous for a while, and other county chiefs released their seals and fled.

In addition to Nanyang County controlled by Yuan Shu, Liu Biao quickly controlled the remaining seven counties in Jingzhou in name.

However, as an official appointed by Dong Zhuo, Liu Biao's identity is quite subtle.

Not only did he not participate in the Kwantung princes' campaign against Dong Zhuo, but even after Dong Zhuo's death, he maintained a close relationship with Li Jue and Guo Si.

Compared with his political silence, another move by Liu Biao has attracted the attention of scholars all over the world.

That is to expand the official school in Jingzhou and build the Xiangyang Academy.

You must know that the north had just experienced the Yellow Turban Rebellion at this time, and the counties had long been in disarray. Even in the end, even Luoyang, the capital of Wenhua, did not escape the end of being burned.

This led to a consequence, that is, the literati and bureaucrats in the north went south one after another and exiled to Jingzhou, which was relatively stable.

Although Liu Biao was ambiguous about his attitude towards the Xiliang Army, he refused to miss this opportunity to gain political reputation.

He actively rescued those who were in distress, expanded his official education, and recruited them to continue their research.

As the reputation spread, more and more scholars chose to settle in Xiangyang.

Gradually, the scale and system of the Xiangyang Academy had surpassed that of the county official academy.It is no exaggeration to say that in terms of scale alone, this newly emerging Xiangyang Academy has overwhelmed Yingchuan Academy.

For example, in the learning of the Han Dynasty, there was a dispute between the ancient literature school and the modern literature school.These two schools, with Qin Shihuang burning books and burying Confucianism as the boundary, each adhere to different ideas.

The knowledge learned by the Jinwen School is the reorganized knowledge of the old Confucianists who still survived in the early Han Dynasty, dictating what they knew and learned.

The classics studied by the School of Ancient Literature are the Confucian classics that were collected by people before the burning of books and the suppression of Confucianism.

The scholar-bureaucrats of the ancient school of literature believed that the Confucianism learned by the modern school of literature had gone through wars and wars, and was transcribed by other people's dictation.

However, the scholar-bureaucrats of the Jinwen school believed that Confucian teaching was originally taught by great Confucians, educated disciples, and passed on from word to mouth.Even if it is the same classic, different people can interpret it differently.The Confucianism they learned has a complete and uninterrupted inheritance.Compared with those ancient texts that have been dated long ago and whose authenticity cannot be proved, the modern texts are undoubtedly closer to the original meaning of Confucianism.

These two schools searched for chapters and excerpted sentences, and fought with each other. Some talented Confucians took the opportunity to expound their own knowledge, and a large number of derivative schools emerged.

This leads to another complication.

The students of later generations took one and took a look.

——Hey, the densely packed book is full of barrage, and there are even some meaningless 666.

In the end, after working for a long time, everyone read the barrage with great interest, but became more and more confused about what the book meant.

This malpractice became more and more serious later on, and some great Confucian scholars began to take the initiative to delete posts, take the essence and discard the dross, and gradually formed their own thoughts.

However, these are just the opinions of one family, and their influence is only within a few schools.

So at this time, Liu Biao made a move of great significance.

——It consumes a huge amount of manpower and material resources to repair the classics!

He imitated the work of Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty who compiled "Baihu Tongyi", and summoned a large number of scholars to study the five classics of "Poetry", "Shangshu", "Li", "Yi", and "Spring and Autumn" at one go, and at the same time deleted the complex and simplified, and made a scholarly The "Five Classics Chapters and Sentences" has an important influence in history.

From Liu Biao's point of view, he lacks foundation, and instead of competing with other powerful powers in areas he is not good at, it is better to win the hearts of scholar-bureaucrats.

You know, Liu Heng, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, was supported as emperor by Taiwei Zhou Bo, who put down the chaos of Zhulu, because of his generosity, kindness and excellent reputation!

He was tactful with the Xiliang army, and as a clan member of the Han Dynasty, he had a sense of presence among the princes of the Kanto.

It's a pity that his ally Yuan Shao soon saw through this intention of overtaking in a corner. Yuan Shao would rather choose the decent Liu Yu as emperor than support Liu Biao.

In terms of time, this is the time when Liu Biao is fully planning to overtake on the curve.

His Xiangyang academy was full of talents, and the person in charge of the five industries was the prestigious Song Zhong Song Zhongzi, and the lecturer in the official school was the world-famous Sima Decao.

In addition, there are Qi Wukai and Yingrong who are temporarily living in Zhouxue.

Yingrong's reputation is not obvious in later generations, but in this era, there are thousands of people gathered just for Yingrong alone.

In addition to these, there are some miscellaneous talents.

For example, Du Kui, who was previously a Yale Lang in the imperial court, is proficient in temperament and eight notes of silk and bamboo.

Liu Biao asked him and Meng Yao to sort out the gala music and teach students music theory.

Handan Chun, who is both knowledgeable and talented; Liang Hu, who once served as the minister of the imperial court, his eight-point book was valued even by Emperor Ling.

One of these two is responsible for teaching everyone small characters, and the other is responsible for teaching everyone big characters, and they are both deeply respected and loved by the students.

Moreover, even Cao Cao, who has a great literary talent, loves Liang Hu's calligraphy.

Later, Cao Cao captured Jingzhou and finally took this idol as his own.

The happy Cao Mengde not only nailed Liang Hu's characters all over the wall, but even changed the plaques and columns of the Great Wei Palace.

Cao Cao wandered between Liang Hu's words every day, and was not satisfied when he saw that his eyes were dazzled.

Since then, in history, Liang Hu's writing has left the reputation of "the Taizu forgot to go to bed, and the view is depressing".

Zhang Lu Zhineng, the head teacher of Heming Taoist Palace, suffered a lot from Yingchuan Academy. The Xiangyang Academy is so culturally prosperous, how could Diaochan, a fox monster, dare to go presumptuously.

Yu Xian hurriedly said, "I didn't ask you to break into the Xiangyang Academy, but I asked you to help me find someone. I have an old acquaintance named Zuoqiu Junyi. After the Luoyang Rebellion, he went to Xiangyang to avoid disaster. Outside of Jiuliu, but with many unique talents, I would like to entrust him to do something for me."

Diao Chan neither agreed nor asked further questions.

She jumped up easily, and said with a smile, "Then I'll go first. If the master dies, remember to entrust me with a dream and make me happy."

"The apprentice will burn the paper for you."

Yu Xian was so sleepy that he didn't bother to pay attention to it. He exhaled smoke to cover his figure, and fell asleep soundly.
