NOVEL NEXT Chapter 140 Zhumeng Academy
In the imperial palace in the capital, the Emperor of Wei and the crown prince were playing chess and chatting.
"My son, do you think we should gradually increase the pressure when we send troops to the Yu Kingdom to force them to return their homeland?
Or the army went out to attack and took the opportunity to annex several states of Yu State. "
"My father has learned from this, and I believe that we should gradually increase the pressure.
Although this method has shortcomings, it is easy for the Yu State to be more courageous and temporarily change the state system. It is not as easy as sending out a large army and defeating it with one blow.
However, the State of Yu can be defeated but cannot be destroyed. If the Wei Dynasty is too powerful and severely damages the three armies of the State of Yu, the State of Chu will surely take advantage of the situation and attack the State of Yu. "
"We, the Wei State, have very different personalities from the Chu State, and we cannot devour the people of the territory like the Chu State.
If Wei and Chu divide the Yu State, Chu will gain a great benefit and Wei will gain a small gain. Since there is a worry of increasing the Chu State, we should move forward slowly and not attack violently. "
The words of Crown Prince Qi were conservative, but they also made clear the current problem of the Wei Dynasty.
If the Wei Dynasty is too powerful, the State of Yu will definitely transfer all its most capable troops to the border of Wei and Yu, causing the State of Chu to reap the benefits.
"My son is steady. The Yu State is old and declining. If I, the Wei Dynasty, forcibly inspire the last bravery of the Yu State, it may overdraw the country and make it difficult to maintain.
In this way, our strategy of threatening Yu and suppressing Chu will be broken midway. "
The Emperor of Wei was about to say something else when he saw the palace envoy holding an official document and presenting it in worship.
"Where is the urgent report?"
"Your Majesty, the Yulin camp will report urgently."
The Emperor of Wei took the document, glanced at it briefly, and then checked it carefully.
"Tai Zhucheng, don't deceive me. When the pearl comes out of the sea, your luck will rise.
Unexpectedly, this matter was actually accomplished by him, and the words of Duke Fu, the book of Duke Zhu, and the historical materials of thousands of years were put into the possession of my great Wei. "
"King Qi, please take the imperial army and the officials of Jiuqing Taichang to Zhuxiang.
Tell Zhou Yuan not to touch the books in the secret area, we must ensure the original appearance of the thousand-year records.
In addition, it was clearly stated to him that he wanted to be promoted to an official position. With this merit, he could be included in the history of the Wei Dynasty and the documents of other countries. "
The Emperor of Wei had no intention of recalling Zhou Yuan, and planned not to recall him in the near future.
He was worried that the sudden recall would make the country boy think that the imperial court was coveting a mere piece of Zhu Jun's seal.
Therefore, he asked Prince Chujun Qi to go to Zhuxiang on his behalf, promise rewards, appease the lucky generals who searched for treasures, and also asked Taichang officials to re-record the secret documents.
Prince Chujun Qi took a look at Yulin's urgent report and knew his father's intention.
After receiving the decree, he quickly ordered the imperial troops, summoned the officials of Taichang Temple, and rushed to Zhuxiang, located in the outer suburbs of the capital.
When the sound of galloping horse hooves approached Zhuxiang again, the people of Zhuxiang knew that the city and county they had been waiting for were about to come true.
Therefore, under the leadership of the township officials, they entertained the imperial guards from the capital with excitement and joy.
"Where is Zhou Yuan?"
"Captain Zhou is busy welcoming the people who are hiding in the secret realm. Your Highness, wait a moment. I will go and report."
Soon after Yu Lin's auxiliary cavalry penetrated into the bamboo sea, Zhou Yuan returned to the village with two Wei soldiers and military Taoists.
As soon as the two sides met, before Zhou Yuan and others had time to greet him, Prince Qi, the crown prince, took the lead in speaking.
"Captain Zhou is truly a man of merit. This dream in Zhuxiang has stumped so many explorers.
I don't want you to solve this thousand-year-old mystery as soon as you come here. "
"My father asked me to pass it on to you. Your achievements can be promoted to a higher rank, and your deeds can be included in the history of the Wei Dynasty.
After the imperial court transforms the secret land of Zhuxiang into Zhumeng Academy, your name will also be known to scholars from all over the world. "
Since there are seals in Zhujun's secret realm, the secret realm cannot be reset spontaneously.
Therefore, the Wei court decided to change this place into Zhumeng Academy, relying on the name of Zhu Gong, a disciple of Fu Gong, to showcase the cultural heritage of the Wei Dynasty.
In the future, anyone who reads Zhu Gongshu and Fu Gong's classics will know the history in the books, and it has a place to carry forward in the contemporary era.
"My lord, thank you very much for your majesty's kindness. I don't dare to ask for anything if I get the merit by chance. It is thanks to the continuous favor of my country that I have received this honor.
I will definitely fulfill my duties and live up to His Majesty’s gifts. "
After going through the scene of expressing gratitude, it was time to report on the details of the secret realm.
Only then did the officials of Taichang Temple know what happened specifically. The more they heard, the more excited they became, and they all wanted to take out thousands of years of historical materials to take a look.
Among them, the alchemist from Taizhu Division was the most excited. Mr. Zhu was a disciple of Mr. Fu and a talented person taught by their ancestor of Guolaoxing Sect.
In this way, Zhu Gong's secret place in Zhuxiang should have a few Fu Gong classics, and even if it's not good enough, it should also contain some inheritance from the Guolao Xing Sect.
At this moment, the thought of asking Mr. Zhu to find another place to sleep quietly rose in their hearts.
But this also involves a problem. Since Wei wants to make a fuss about Zhu Gong, it needs to maintain respect for this sage.
If someone's grave is dug from the beginning, even if the Zhumeng Academy is built, it will bring its own stigma.
Historians from the Taishi Ling faction thought more complicatedly.
Now that thousands of years of historical data are in their hands, how should they compile history and how should they pick out words to characterize each dynasty?
How to demonstrate the legitimacy and glory of the Wei Dynasty in terms of literature and history, and how to take the opportunity to deny other countries in the cultural field, these are no small problems.
"Thousand Years of Dreams, Fu Gong's true biography, the scriptures and buildings in the secret territory of Zhuxiang must not be touched lightly.
His Majesty said that the bamboo slips could only be re-recorded and the bamboo slips could not be moved out of the secret place. He also asked all the scribes to work hard and re-record several copies and transport them back to the capital as soon as possible. "
As soon as Prince Qi finished speaking, a group of Taichang officials hurriedly took orders.
They have long been unable to resist looking at the thousand-year historical materials. Being able to reconstruct the thousand-year history of the country is simply an irresistible temptation for them.
"Captain Zhou, please lead the way."
Under Zhou Yuan's leadership, the Taichang officials and the imperial guards entered the Zhuxiang Secret Realm one by one.
When the number of people was full, there were still many scholars who had not entered the secret realm, beating their heads and stamping their feet, extremely annoyed.
Fortunately, the scholars who entered the secret realm were very professional. They made two copies and had a special person to check for errors. The re-recorded documents were sent out of the secret realm one by one for sorting.
As time went by, the historian frowned, as if he had doubts, and finally couldn't help asking Zhou Yuan a question.
"Captain Zhou, besides Zhujun's study, the mansion's library, and the underground library, are there no other collections of books?"
"The hermits in Zhuxiang said that there are only these three places. If the Grand Historian has any doubts, he can wait for the imperial guards to investigate in detail."
"Alas, it's not that I have doubts, it's really that a few words in the historical materials can turn black and white.
The records of the previous generations of Zhujun were fair, but the records of the later Zhujun were mixed with some emotions.
But he still has an uncertain position, often reversing the verdict after making a judgment, praising and then belittling."
The problems mentioned by the Grand Historian do exist, which requires the historians of the Great Wei to clarify a direction and revise it again.
But the revision of the Great Wei does not necessarily pursue objectivity. For example, after reading the re-recorded questionnaire, the crown prince Qi Wang also raised a question.
"It is impossible to verify the relatives of Lord Zhu, and those hermits who walked out of the secret realm of Zhuxiang can easily inherit this name."
"Why don't we give them a birth and a surname to confirm their identity as the descendants of Lord Zhu.
Let them become students of Zhumeng Academy, which can make Zhumeng Academy famous and show the good deeds of our Great Wei.
In this way, Captain Zhou can also add another merit, the merit of saving the descendants of the sage."
