Everyone knows that this land has good Feng Shui. There are many people in the world who know Feng Shui, and Yuan Tiangang is the most powerful one. Can he not tell how Feng Shui is here? What the emperor believes most is this kind of thing. If Li Mu built a mansion for Li Bai here and it was passed into Li Shimin's ears, it might not be what happened. This is not accumulating blessings for future generations, but rather a disaster.

Li Shimin seemed to see Li Mu's concerns, and once mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally, which roughly meant to make Li Mu relax his heart, and he was not that stingy.

But Li Mu still didn't change his mind. Li Shimin was not so stingy. The future emperor may not be. If there are woeful things, it would be best not to do it.

So Li Mu told Li Shimin that there are only two places with excellent Feng Shui in Luoyang City. Logically speaking, such places can only be owned by the emperor, but because of two places, thanks to the kindness of Your Majesty, I took one place. It is not impossible to build a palace, but it seems too selfish. Instead of being occupied by a family, how can I build a college here so that every student who studies here can benefit from it?

So Li Mu built the Bailu Academy, and all the expenses were borne by Li Mu alone. This academy was a welfare undertaking that he personally did for the people of Luoyang.

The first phase of the academy project was completed for two years. After all, this was almost an undeveloped mountain with no infrastructure. If everything started from scratch, time delays would be inevitable. But there are also benefits, all of them are new and there is no need to put them into practice.

The academy has only built a mountain gate, and the number of applicants exceeds a thousand. Among them, there are many aristocratic families who come to support the numbers, but more are ordinary poor students. They look forward to learning real skills from Li Mu. Even if they cannot become Li Mu in the future, they will become talents who can stand alone in the Interior Affairs Office like the first-year student of the Tang Dynasty Technical School. This is also something that most people can wake up laughing when they dream.

Li Mu has never made it public. What he wants to run this school. The outside world has no idea, but Li Mu himself has already planned it. He wants to build this school into a holy place where hundreds of schools of thought contend. This place not only spreads his ideas, but also includes all other theories. Make this academy a benchmark, so that all academies in the world can use this as a template, and where conditions permit, they will build their local students according to such a system, so that the education of the Tang Dynasty will be prosperous with the point and the education of the Tang Dynasty will be prosperous.

No matter what era, education is of incomparable importance to a country.

Although there is only one mountain gate in the academy now, there are many students. These people are old and young, with the same purpose, and are able to enter the school as soon as possible. Even if you don’t know how the final selection is, what if it’s a first come first served?

Moreover, when you study, you can read everywhere. The quiet environment near Bailu Academy is really a good place to read.

So, these people "build a hut" near the academy, with the first one and the second one, and hundreds of them one after another.

Instead of driving them away, Li Mu sent people to regulate them. He told them not to affect the progress of the project, nor could he cause great damage to the nearby environment. In addition to these, the principle of voluntary autonomy is adopted without interfering with each other.

But some things are inevitable. Everyone is a scholar, and no one thinks they are bad. There is inevitably discussion when so many people gather together. When there is discussion, there is inevitably disputes, and when there is disagreement, disputes will arise.

Although scholars are not good at fighting, if everyone is not good at fighting, they are not afraid of fighting. At some point, there will be one or two fights. In order to solve this problem, some older scholars suggest whether to imitate the Wei and Jin Dynasties and set up a elegant gathering. Everyone gathers together to speak in turn and explain their views. It is reasonable that they cannot distinguish the truth. Those who have more support will obviously win, so they will not be so gentle and will not be so polite to fight.

This method was approved by most people, so the seventh day of each month became the day when the Yaji Festival was agreed to hold the festival. Today was just the seventh day of the lunar month, and Li Mu had caught up.

There is a literature museum in Luoyang City. I heard that there are many famous scholars here, and many famous scholars who have long become famous come to join in the fun. Their participation has made the value of the elegant scholars even higher. There are also some great scholars. They do not participate directly in the discussion, but after others discuss, they use their reputation to be a "judgment", evaluate their opinions and articles, and encourage them to learn from the last generation. It is quite a bit suspicious of relying on their seniority.

But later generations do not hate them. Because these great scholars have long been famous, it is definitely a matter of undesirable for a young man to get their affirmation.

Li Mu caught up today, and he deliberately sent Li Chongyi away so that no one could notice that he was there through Li Chongyi. He was mixed in the crowd and was not so easy to be recognized. Although everyone in Luoyang City knew him, not many people had actually seen him.

Li Mu was mixed in the crowd like an ordinary student. After hearing several people express their experience in studying, his brows became tighter and tighter.

He thought that the atmosphere here was so open-minded, and everyone would discuss it together to have some mental views that would not be confined to the previous category. However, after listening to the speeches of three people in a row, Li Mu found that the ideas of these people were generally the same as those of corrupt scholars, and they all seemed to be taught by the old scholar Kong Yingda. This is nothing, the point is that none of the people who listened below raised objections. Obviously, their understanding of reading is similar to those of these people who spoke. If the future of the academy is the learning atmosphere, Li Mu felt that there was no need for his own school.

I can all go to the Imperial College to study. What is the significance of the existence of Bailu Academy?

Li Mu couldn't bear to listen anymore. He returned to his carriage, took out the set of disguise tools prepared by Jin Chen for him, and tinkered with a brief tinkering, and turned into a slightly sick and a little haggard middle-aged scholar with a pseudonym Li Yan. He found the person who hosted the Ya Ji today and got the opportunity to speak on stage.

As for reading insights, Li Mu criticized the Six Classics, the Analects of Confucius and Mencius as soon as he came on stage, not saints that were difficult to change forever, but rather saints and disciples who recalled the words and words of the saints who had heard, either had a beginning or no end, had a tail or no head, or simply wrote them in random composition and compiled into a book. Such books have certain reference value, but they do not have to be regarded as a standard, nor are they any classics that are difficult to change.

Later generations thought that this was all the incisive theories of the saints, but in fact they had fallen into a misunderstanding. Because this book was not written by the saint himself, perhaps many of the remarks in this book were fabricated by disciples, and they were not what the saints said at all?

Even if there is a saint who really talks about it, it will only respond randomly to those unexcited disciples. Just discuss the matter and prescribe the right medicine. How can it be regarded as the eternal truth and seek a sword when carving a boat?

Therefore, it is obvious that the Six Classics, the Analects of Confucius, and the Mencius have long been used as tools for fooling the people. Persuasive people must not use the contents of these books as their own code of conduct, and should not learn the contents of these books in every word and action. If you do that, you will be a little bit of a brainless person.

When Li Mu spoke, there was a silence below. It was not that no one objected, but that they were all confused. Shouldn’t such rebellious remarks be beaten to death?

When he finished speaking, the audience couldn't help but slapped the table and scolded: "Since it's so worthless, why do you still have to teach in all generations?"

"Its only value is the level of advancement." Li Mu said lightly: "How many scholars in the world believe in it's Taoism, Yin means wealth, and being imitated by elegance, and acting like dogs."

Hearing this, some people couldn't help but nodded subconsciously, not for the sake of the Golden House, Qian Zhongsu and Yan Ruyu, how many people were willing to study?

"You are talking nonsense!" Some disciples who firmly believe in the Four Books and Five Classics angrily scolded Li Mu and said, "The heavens do not give birth to Zhongni, and it will last forever be as long as the night. How could you be a little crazy person? You can deny it in one word!"

Li Mu laughed: "I just heard today that it turned out that the eternal night before Confucius was born. It seems that the saints before Confucius, the Three Emperors and the Five Emperors, walked with lanterns all day long!"

"..." The battle ended, and in terms of arguments, Li Mu had never encountered any opponent so far.

But Li Mu's arrogant attitude also aroused the anger of the public. Although everyone could not argue with him, they attacked him in groups, and they started a wheel battle. Although the enemy attacked fiercely, they obviously could not break Li Mu's defense, and they were all calmly resolved by him. The Ya Ji parted in dissatisfaction. A group of scholars cursed and left, and found another open space to carry out their Ya Ji.

But there were also people who stayed there, although not many, but Li Mu saw the fire of hope.

These people stayed behind may not agree with Li Mu's point of view, but they at least became curious, which was already very good.

Faced with the questions they raised, Li Mu patiently answered them one by one and shared his views. Gradually, people gathered around him, and more and more! Li Mu kept talking until his mouth was dry and his mouth was drooping, and these people were reluctant to leave.

Everyone repeatedly begged to this "Li Yan" and asked Li Mu to come when the next elegant gathering. They would bring their friends of the same year to listen to his lectures.

The name Li Yan was not a hit, and he became a figure that ordinary students in Luoyang City talked about. Even if the views of "Li Yan" were not recognized, it was enough to shock many people to put forward these views.
