Chapter 2183 is not as good as an osprey
Sun Shangxiang tiptoed up the stairs, stretched her neck, and looked at the small building of the Military Affairs Office on the north side.
Sun Ce saw it but didn't say anything. He finished reading the official documents in his hand, picked up his pen and signed his name, pointed to the seat opposite, and signaled Lu Ji to sit down. Lu Ji was not surprised at all, responded, and then picked up his clothes and put them in his seat.
"I heard from Guo Jijiu that you are reading "The Book of Xun's Yi" recently?"
"Yes, I want to study Yixue." Lu Ji paused and said, "The "Xun Family Yizhuan" is widely spread, and many people are proficient in it, so it is easy to get started."
Sun Ce hmmed. "The Book of Xun's Yi" was written by Xun Shu, and was promoted by Xun Shuang. Now it is annotated by Xun Yue and printed throughout the world. There are many scholars in the Central Plains. The efforts of the three generations of Xun's family have allowed Xun's Yixue to gain a firm foothold in the learning forest. Even Yu Fan was fascinated by Xun's Yi for a while. However, Yu Fan is no longer talking about Yi, and he has bigger ideas.
The Lu family is not known for Xiyi. Lu Kang himself had very limited understanding of Yixue, otherwise he would not have been tangled by his nonsense at the beginning. Lu Ji studied Yixue, and because his academic style had changed, many people were re-examining the Six Classics and were determined to create a new academic, which made Sun Ce feel a little confused about his intention. Today he happened to have the opportunity, so he wanted to ask Lu Ji himself.
Lu Xun was besieged at the military advisory office, and it was impossible for uncle Lu Ji, who was not unwilling to care about it, just waiting for the result here.
"Why?"
Lu Ji frowned slightly and thought for a moment. "No, I just find it interesting."
"interesting?"
"Yi is the first of the Six Classics, and there are many people who write the commentary on it for Yi, but there are many different opinions and no conclusions, and some are even completely opposite. I want to understand the reason and why this happens. If I can understand the changes in Yi learning in different eras, I may be able to understand what the predecessors think from it."
Sun Ce couldn't help laughing. It seems that this kid likes to read, just like Sun Kuang. They don't have to worry about their livelihoods, have no worries about food and clothing, learn or read, and don't need to consider whether it is profitable or not. They just ask whether it is interesting or not.
"Everyone has their own ambitions, so don't force it. Since you are interested in learning, it doesn't make sense to stay in the palace, but it's a waste of time. You can hand over the matter at hand. If you want to go back to Wujun or travel around the world, you can do it yourself."
"Thank you, Minister." Lu Ji bowed. He raised his head, peeked at Sun Ce, and wanted to say something but stopped. Sun Ce said, "If you have something to ask me?"
"Yes, I'm brave enough to ask the king for two questions."
"explain."
"What does the king think of Yixue?"
Sun Ce pondered for a long time, but still shook his head. "I have no research on Yixue and dare not mislead people's children. Otherwise, Lu Jijiu came to the door and I would not be able to bear it."
"Then I have another question: how high is the sky and how thick is the earth?"
Sun Ce raised his eyelids and looked at Lu Ji, unable to help laughing out loud. "Avenge your father?"
"I dare not." Lu Ji also smiled. "My father has forgotten about this, but I am very curious and want to know the answer. Master Xu once proposed a plan to measure the thickness of the ground. It is said that the result is that the ground is a ball, with a circumference of more than 67,000 miles, but he has never said how high the sky is."
"Are you interested in Master Xu's articles?"
"Yes, I have carefully studied the articles he wrote."
Sun Ce was very satisfied. As the research deepened, Xu Yue's articles became more and more obscure and difficult to understand. Even he didn't like to read them very much. Lu Ji was so interested, which shows that he was still talented. Historical books say that Lu Ji was not successful in his life and was later demoted to Yulin County. He died in his thirties. Before his death, he left a prophecy cursing Sun Wu, which was fulfilled. As for whether he happened to have achieved something in his studies, it was not clear.
However, judging from the current situation, this person is a bit introverted and a bit stubborn. He is indeed not suitable for politics, and studying is more suitable for him.
"Peng Ji, after reading so many articles by Master Xu, do you believe that the earth is round or square now?"
"I have personally verified it in the East China Sea. From practice to mathematical deduction, the theory of earth circle is more reasonable than that of local ones."
"Since that's the case, which sky are you talking about? Is it the blue sky you see, or the sky where the sun, moon and stars are located? This is not the same sky."
"This...isn't this the same day?"
Sun Ce's mouth was slightly raised and his smile was cunning. "Public Ji, if you want to study Yixue, you can't just focus on the simplified book, but also on what the ancients read. The ancients did not have the Six Classics, so what did they look at? It doesn't have to be the sky above their heads and the ground below their feet."
Lu Ji felt something and said nothing for a long time. At this time, Sun Shangxiang walked over, sat behind Sun Ce, and quietly pulled his sleeve. "King, stop talking, go and have a look. It seems that something happened in the military advisory office, without any sound."
"What can happen?" Sun Ce gave her a blank look. "Can they still eat Bo Yan?"
"No, there are so many of them, I'm worried about Bo Yan..."
"The bird of prey is not as tired as a bird of prey." Sun Ce patted Sun Shangxiang's hand and told her to be calm. He was not worried about Lu Xun. To be honest, there are only a few people who can compete with Lu Xun in this era, and no one else can see enough, and these people are not at the military advisory office at the moment. He transferred Lu Xun back from the front line not only to temper Lu Xun and balance the strength of various factions, but also to hope that Lu Xun can suppress the Ru Ying power of the military advisory office.
The Military Advisory Department has always been controlled by the Ruying faction, especially after Zhuge Liang, Lu Xun and Zhu Ran were released. Although Xun Yu did not officially join the position, his arrival also made the Ruying faction's spirit even higher. Countless Ruying scholars joined the Military Advisory Department, and the power of the Ruying faction quickly expanded. This is also impossible. In terms of the number of talents, no place can be compared with Ruying. In addition, Guo Jia, a Ruying person, presided over the Military Advisory Department, the growth of the Ruying faction is inevitable. Compared with the battlefield, the balance of the Military Advisory Department is more urgent.
The transfer of Lu Xun back to shock Ru Ying's scholars from the Military Advisory Office gradually introduced Jiangdong scholars to form a balance with the Ru Ying faction. This was his real purpose of transferring back to Lu Xun. At this time, Sun Shangxiang and Lu Xun were also endorsed by Lu Xun.
In this case, who dares to be unfavorable to Lu Xun, who can be unfavorable to Lu Xun, and go forward to fight?
Sitting opposite, Lu Ji, who was pondering, couldn't help laughing when he heard Sun Ce's words, and obviously felt much more relaxed.
Lu Xun sat quietly, lowered his eyebrows and took a military newspaper in front of him and threw it aside.
"Next."
There was a silence in the hall, and dozens of Ruying-sects-sected soldiers looked at each other with complex eyes, but no one dared to step forward again. Most of them were newly recruited Ruying people and had a near admiration for the Xun brothers. Xun Yan died in the battle with Lu Xun. The hope of a famous general in the Ruying-sected group died in the middle, which made many people feel inexplicably hostile to Lu Xun and had long wanted to make things difficult for him.
But the facts proved that they were no match for Lu Xun at all. After several debates, they lost and lost in a very bad way, and they had almost no power to fight back. Many people were so angry that their faces turned red, their fists were clenched tightly, and they wanted to step forward to beat Lu Xun. But looking at the water pavilion in the distance, looking at the Yulin Guard who was fully armed, leaning against the railings and chatting from time to time, they had to swallow their breath even if they couldn't swallow it.
If he really wants to take action and start the full martial arts, perhaps the King of Wu will not say anything, and the third general will definitely not give up.
Some non-Ruying Army soldiers stood on the periphery without hiding their gloating on their faces. The Ruying Army was used to being rampant in the military advisor, but today they were swept by Lu Xun alone, which was really awesome. Some old men from the Ruying Army looked at each other and smiled bitterly. They had been in the military advisor for a long time, and had seen Lu Xun's power, but Lu Xun's performance was beyond their expectations. Lu Xun, who had been practicing on the battlefield for two years, was like a fire-hardened sword, invincible.
Some experienced people have realized the intention of Sun Ce to recall Lu Xun, and know that the time when the Ruying faction dominated the military advisory department was over, and the Ruying faction will face even more difficult challenges. Unlike other factions, the Ruying faction department has no foundation in the army. If they lose the position of the Military Advisory Department, it will be difficult for them to compete with other factions in the political territory of the Wu Kingdom, especially the military system.
Seeing that no one spoke, Guo Jia stood up and clapped his hands. "Okay, let's stop here today. You can't chew too much, and waste the talk of Duwei Lu. Whether you participate in the debate or not, everyone will write a report and hand it over within three days. As one of the assessment contents of this quarter. Especially for some people, go back and reflect on it carefully. With your performance today, you may not be able to release it in this life."
The soldiers responded in a verbal manner. Although many people were reluctant, no one dared to disobey Guo Jia's orders.
The soldiers dispersed one after another, and Guo Jia led Lu Xun to the second floor. Tea and fruits were prepared on the second floor. The two of them took their seats. Guo Jia smiled and said, "Boyan, you are so good. There are too many business matters recently. I can't handle it. I haven't even had a few rests. How about it? I'll take a few days first, let me go home and rest for two days, and accompany my wife to go out for an outing?"
Lu Xun bowed slightly. "Jijiu is the pillar of the military advisor. The boy can only share one or two of the sacrificial wine. How can he replace the sacrificial wine?" He glanced at Guo Jia and smiled and said, "Besides, the kid was only ten years old when he entered the military advisor. King Meng and Jijiu refused to abandon him. He enlightened the military tactics and power advisors, and he could also be regarded as a sacrificial wine wall. If something happened, even if Jijiu was thousands of miles away, he would probably not be out of the matter. Are you right?"
Guo Jia laughed and pointed at Lu Xun. "Boyan, to be honest, do you think I arranged this matter today?"
"Don't dare."
"I dare not admit it." Guo Jia shook the feather fan and chuckled, with a little more sarcastic look in his eyes. "To be honest, it was really what I arranged. The battlefield is getting bigger and bigger, and the military advisory office is getting bigger and bigger. Recently, there are many new people, especially the children of aristocratic families in Yuzhou. Do you think they are coming for me, a slut? There are some things that I can't come forward in person, and I can't find a suitable person to come forward. After thinking about it, you and Kong Ming are the most suitable. Kong Ming is in Jingnan and can't get rid of you. You just come back and share some of it. Jizhou is still Guanzhong, so you can choose one."
Lu Xun bowed and bowed. "Kong Ming was responsible for the left side, so I was responsible for the right side. The middle side must be a wine sacrificial ceremony."
