The New Biography of Han Lingdi

Chapter 170
Under Liu Hong's powerful conditions, Confucianism finally agreed.

Three days later, Liu Hong invited all representatives of Confucianism and other scholars to Baijia Academy. After nearly four months of construction, Baijia Academy was finally announced to be completed.

Baijia College covers an area of ​​nearly 100 acres of land. "Let's all take a look, this is Baijia Academy." Liu Hong said to more than [-] people behind him at the door.

"This local competition platform can accommodate thousands of people, here I will allow all the students to debate here, using their own schools of thought to argue with each other." Liu Hong pointed to the front of the platform and said.

"Can your Majesty be from any school of thought?" A Legalist figure appeared.Debate has only been a privilege of Confucianism since the Han Dynasty, and other schools of thought could only watch but not participate.

"It's very clear what I said just now, it's all students, no matter what schools of thought." Liu Hong said firmly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." When this debate of schools of thought appeared, it was only in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, and the Qin Dynasty after the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period used Legalism.

From the beginning of the Han Dynasty, Lao Tzu's Taoism was used at the beginning, and then Confucianism was gradually used.In each period, the imperial court will mainly support one school of thought, and other factions can only be suppressed.

Liu Hong's move has been approved by all the schools here.

"Each college will set up a separate area for each school, so that students can study in their respective areas, so there is no need to worry about these." Liu Hong continued.

Liu Hong's idea is also to prevent other schools of thought from conflicting with each other, when a good idea will turn into a bad thing.

Different schools of thought have different ideas, and some ideas are opposite to each other, and their fundamental viewpoints are all in conflict.

If you study together, conflicts are likely to break out, so it is normal for Liu Hong to set up different areas for different schools to study.

After speaking, Liu Hong continued to lead them forward.Later, a group of people came to a huge building.

"This is what I think is the most exciting place in the entire academy. This is where books are stored. Any student can come here to look up books. I have already started to move all the books in here. There are nearly 1500 million sets of books in it. Any student can check out the books of different factions at will." Finally, the group came to a huge building.

Here are the books on other planets that Liu Hong retrieved from the system, as well as all the books that have appeared on the earth.

Of course, the books that have appeared on the earth can only appear in this era. There are no such books as "Das Kapital" and "Origin of Species" in later generations.

In fact, Confucianism is just a very large generalization. Confucianism is divided into more small factions. Therefore, Confucianism does not actually have only one thought. Each thought has different supporters and different branches of schools.

"Come on, let's go in and have a look." Liu Hong led them inside.Entering the library, what they saw at a glance was a sentence written by Liu Hong himself.

Set up the heart for the heaven and the earth, set the destiny for the livelihood and the people, for the sacred and inherited knowledge, and for the peace of the world.

A few simple words shocked everyone who came here.These few words describe what a scholar should do.

"Good sentence." A Legalist figure said in praise.

"I hope that all the students here can contribute to the country of the Great Han, and benefit the people of the world, so don't disappoint me in establishing this Hundred Schools College." Liu Hong said.

The group of people continued to walk inside with great shock. After opening the door, there were some seats. However, because there were no students yet, the seats here were all empty.

The books here are also arranged according to different scholars.The storage method of books here is arranged according to the way that later generations put books, so it is relatively simple to find books.

"You all go and have a look, are these books complete? If you still have books there, of course I hope you can take out all the books so that all the students in the world can learn the knowledge of your school." Liu Hong said.

Of course, Liu Hong does not believe that there are books there that are not here. After all, Liu Hong has already got all the books that appear in China here.

There are about 1500 million sets of books here, close to 1 million books.There are many different types.There is also different knowledge and different technological knowledge in it.

After listening to Liu Hong's words, everyone in the back separated, found their own faction books, and picked up the books to read there.

There are many books they have never heard of, but the knowledge in the viewpoints in them is refreshing to them, and they seem to feel that they are sitting on the sidelines.

Always think that they understand all the knowledge of their school.Without any development, seeing these books, they will suddenly understand that knowledge is infinite.

They began to immerse themselves in the knowledge in the book and began to think and reason continuously.

"Your Majesty, may I borrow the books here?" A Confucian student came over and asked.

"One month later, the college will officially start recruiting students. At that time, I will invite you to come over as teachers. You can read the books here casually. I have also arranged a dormitory for you at the back, where you can live. All the students are here. All the expenses of the college are borne by the imperial court." Liu Hong said richly.

"Your Majesty, can any student come here?" said a Taoist representative.

"Of course, but those who have passed the entrance examination can enter the school. As long as you pass the examination, no matter whether you are born in a family or a poor family, as long as you pass the examination, you can enter the school."

"I also know that you are representatives of every scholar. You can have relationships with many learned people. I hope you can write to invite them all to come here and tell the classics for students." Liu Hong Said.

"On behalf of all the students in the world, I would like to thank Your Majesty for your kindness." Before they came, they just thought that there might be a chance to come back, but they didn't expect the court's attitude to be so firm.

"Okay, I'll leave the academy to you. I'll take charge of the academy's sacrificial wine. You only need to teach your knowledge, and don't worry about anything else." Liu Hong promised them that they only need to concentrate on learning. , Other things have him to help solve.

"I'll write to my teachers and friends right away to ask them to come here. Let me wait to do my part for this college." They expressed their support for the whole college.

At the same time, Confucianism also expressed their attitude.They think that school disputes are not as important as all the books in this one library.

Since it is possible to debate, then everyone will see the truth on the debate stage to see whose idea can be better.
