(I want to hear more of your voice and receive more of your suggestions, now search for the WeChat public account "qdread" and follow it to give more support to "The Three Kingdoms of Myth"!) The autumn of the three years of peace is destined to become an uneasy autumn.

The Shandong war against rebellion, which had originally attracted the attention of the world, was suddenly ignored. Except for the generals of both sides who were preparing to fight, everyone else turned their attention to Yizhou, an ancient tomb that had just been excavated.

This ancient tomb could cause such a big reaction because it was found something unique. Since Cai Yong's first briefing was sent to Luoyang, the instruments unearthed in this ancient tomb have attracted the attention of countless people. A large number of erudite or self-aware people quoted classics and made various speculations on those sacrificial instruments that were very different from the Central Plains ritual instruments, but no one could make a convincing conclusion.

Disputes are inevitable, and things that are debated are often easily the focus.

Because of discussing politics, Luoyang had already gathered a lot of virtuous literature. He was a little tired of discussing politics all day long. After all, there were too many taboo topics in politics, and not everyone dared to speak out. Suddenly, there was such a topic that could make people think without any scruples, which was naturally more attractive than politics. At the beginning, this was just a chat after dinner. Gradually, this topic surpassed the discussion of politics and became mainstream.

As more and more briefings spread to Luoyang, more incomprehensible things appeared in front of people, and many people could no longer sit still. Some no longer participated in the political discussion, but instead tried every means to go to Dongguan to check the information and contact the briefing as soon as possible. Some simply packed their luggage and set off to Yizhou to conduct on-site inspections.

Situ Yang Biao was originally confused by these Confucian scholars. He heard that someone was willing to go to Yizhou. He asked for it and let it go. All of them were idle and had a sharp-mouthed guy to come to Yizhou, which not only reduced the unstable factors in Luoyang, but also reduced the difficulties in the supply of grain in Situ Mansion. It was a killing two birds with one stone.

Even Xun Yu strode his forehead and celebrated. During this period, he was also tossed by these Confucian scholars.

Among them is Kong Rong.

In terms of sharp words, Kong Rong may not be as good as Ni Heng, but in terms of profound knowledge, Ni Heng and Kong Rong are far inferior. If you compare swordsmen, then Ni Heng is just a deviant sword and aggressive, while Kong Rong is a heavy sword without sharp edge and no gap to attack.

In this era, the inheritance of knowledge was not popular. The level of level was based on the knowledge: whether you saw it much or not, whether you had extraordinary knowledge. Among the two, it was based on the knowledge. The so-called "only you can know more" by seeing it. The reason why Xun Yu had outstanding knowledge was because he could see many books that many people could not see and knew more truth. In this regard, Kong Rong was no less than him. The books collected by the Kong family may not be as complicated as Xun Yu collected. However, in the accumulation of Confucian classics, there are many materials that Xun Yu had never seen before.

As the direct descendant of the Confucius family, the foundation of the Kong family is certainly not comparable to that of ordinary families.

In addition to knowledge, there is another reason for Xun Yu's lack of confidence: Kong Rong is a little better than him in terms of family background or personal reputation. Kong Rong has obvious advantages in terms of knowledge and literary talent. In addition to cultivation - Xun Yu is not a rough person like Liu Bian who likes to do things. He lets him and Kong Rong swing his fists and judge the level by force. He can't do it.

When Kong Rong left Luoyang, Xun Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and then he was a little gloating.

Kong Rong went to Yizhou by Taoist Chang'an. With his temper, he had to compete with Liu Bian. He came from Beihai not to discuss politics, but to debate with Liu. For this reason, Ni Heng did not hesitate to chase Yizhou from afar. Kong Rong walked along the way, and there was no reason to pass the city gate and not enter.

...

Mount Li.

Liu Bian stood on the ancient beacon tower and looked at the Qin Shihuang Mausoleum in the distance. The setting sun set, and a golden edge was inlaid on the tall imperial tomb. The mound of pine and cypress planted with pine and cypress was obviously deeper against the sunset. The sunset in the sky was like a fire, particularly gorgeous.

A big eagle hovering in the air, leisurely and contented.

Through the eyes of the eagle, Liu Bian saw the situation within ten miles and was shocked.

He visited the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang in his previous life and visited the so-called eighth miracle of the world - the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang. Although the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang had not been excavated at that time, he had done a lot of exploration. He knew that there was a miniature version of the Great Qin Empire hidden under this piece of fence. He didn't know whether there were any classics from the Qin Dynasty before, but at this time the Mausoleum of Qin was closer to the day of completion, the fence was higher and closer to a square.

In other words, the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang at this time was more like a pyramid, but it was not that large or that steep.

However, even in Egypt, not all pyramids are as big or as steep as the Khufu pyramid. If some standards are relaxed, it would not be too outrageous to call Qin Shihuang Mausoleum an Eastern pyramid.

Could it be that the phoenix bloodline and civilization really come from the West?

Although Liu Bian thought this conclusion was too incredible, he could not completely deny it. He knew very well that there was a Terracotta Warriors and Horses buried in this land. Just like the statue of the gods in Danhan Mountain, the artistic style of the Terracotta Warriors is like a Greek sculpture that was placed in the wrong place. It was unprecedented in the history of Chinese art and no one came later, so it was obviously particularly abrupt.

"Your Majesty, have you thought about it?" Cai Yan urged excitedly. The tomb in Guanghan caused a big storm, and she didn't think it was enough and encouraged Liu Bian to excavate the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang. Although the ancient tomb in Guanghan was shocking, it had a very serious problem: no words were found so far. Without words, there would be no clear records, and it would be difficult to reach a clear conclusion for many problems.

The Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang is different. There must be many classics hidden in it, and the ages are not far apart. As long as you are familiar with ancient characters, you can resolve many disputes. For Cai Yan, the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang is obviously more attractive than the ancient tombs of Guanghan.

"You can't be anxious about this." Liu Bian smiled and shook his head: "We are not Xiang Yu. Digging tombs is not to steal money, but to solve the undecided academic problems. The ancient tomb in Guanghan has no books, which is actually a good thing. Once the tomb has been sealed for so long, once it is opened, all books may turn into ashes in an instant. Before we come up with a solution to this problem, even if you find the past classics in the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang, you can't read it."

"Is there such a thing?" Cai Yan opened his eyes wide.

"Do I need to lie to you?" Liu Bian shook his head helplessly: "Really, believe me."

"Your Majesty, how could you know these things?" Cai Yan asked curiously: "Have you stole the tomb?"

"What are you talking about?" Liu Bian was annoyed. He knocked Cai Yan's forehead: "What are you thinking about in your little head all day long? When did you see me stealing the tomb?"

Cai Yan touched his forehead, laughed, rolled his eyes, and was about to persuade him for a few more words, but someone came to report it. Kong Rong asked for a meeting.

Liu Bian was very surprised. Didn’t Kong Rong discuss politics in Luoyang? Why did he suddenly come to Chang'an? He looked at Cai Yan, and Cai Yan was also confused. Liu Bian thought about it and asked Cai Yan and others to avoid it first, and asked someone to invite Kong Rong up.

After a while, Kong Rong walked up with great strides. He was about eight feet tall. Although he was a scholar, he was handsome and majestic, like a giant sword, inviolable.

"Kong Qing is so charming, no wonder Ni Zhengping has a lot of eyes for Kong Qing."

Kong Rong smiled slightly: "I feel comforted when I learned that Your Majesty is so respectful to Ni Heng. I heard that Your Majesty is defending the gate and carving stones to discuss the truth, and it is spread to the world. I am not talented and have any unknown points. I would like to ask Your Majesty for advice."

Liu Bian raised his eyebrows and understood Kong Rong's intention. This is because the person who comes is not good, and the person who is good will not come. He smiled slightly: "I heard that Kong Qing is fighting against many scholars in Luoyang, and he rarely has an opponent. Why, Master Kong Qing is lonely and comes to Chang'an to challenge?"

Kong Rong smiled without saying a word, with a hint of arrogance in his calmness, and was considerate and unhumble. He was very stance to compete with Liu Bian.

Liu Bian waved his sleeves, turned around, and said lightly: "It's a pity that I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Kong Qing."

Kong Rong was stunned for a moment, his face a little unhappy. "Your Majesty disdained to speak to me?"

"No. Kong Qing is famous scholars in the world. I don't know how many people's long-cherished wishes can speak to Kong Qing. However, Kong Qing must know that I am not a Confucian, and he has always disdained to comment on Confucians who talk about the country in vain, so..."

Kong Rong looked at Liu Bian who seemed to be smiling and understood what he meant. This is not to avoid fighting, it is simply provocation. What is a Confucian scholar who is a confusing country by empty talk? The way of the sage king is the crystallization of wisdom of the Confucian school for thousands of years, so how can it become empty talk?

"When you hear Your Majesty's words, you seem to have many prejudices against Confucians. I am not talented and I am willing to discuss with Your Majesty." Kong Rong bowed his hand and became more enthusiastic about fighting.

"What is there to discuss this way of destroying the country?" Liu Bian frowned, a little impatient. "If Kong Qing really had an interest in learning, why don't we talk about practical learning? Isn't it better to talk about those useless things?"

Kong Rong's eyes twitched, and he almost jumped up in anger. It was too much to say that Confucians talked about the country without any reason, but now they have become profitable. Confucianism and Taoism are the way to destroy the country. If he did not understand this truth, what face would he, a descendant of the Kong family, have to stand firm in the world?

Kong Rong could no longer see a smile on his face, even if it was polite. He said with a voice: "Your Majesty, why does Confucianism and Taoism be known as the way to destroy the country?"

"Uh, I wonder if Kong Qing, which country under the rule of the Zhou emperor, is the most prosperous Confucianism?"

Kong Rong said proudly: "That's more important than that, of course it's the State of Lu."

"Among the Five Hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period, is there a State of Lu?"

Kong Rong was speechless.

"Among the seven heroes of the Warring States Period, is there a state of Lu?"

"This... During the Warring States Period, although Lu was not strong enough, Qi was a great power in the East. Qi and Lu were both known as Qi and Lu, and they were both popular places for Confucianism."

"Okay, even if Qi is a great Confucian country, but Qi is only half of the world, isn't it destroyed by Qin?" Liu Bian glanced at Kong Rong sideways and pointed to the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang in the distance. "The Master traveled around the world but did not enter Qin. But the Qin State was the last to unify the world. I can't help but wonder whether the fall of Qi and Lu was because of the Confucian country, and Qin State unified the world because of the Master's failure?"

"Your Majesty, how can you say that..."

Liu Bian interrupted Kong Rong without hesitation. "I have shallow knowledge and I will inevitably have some misunderstandings. Why not do this? Please tell me, since the Master founded the Confucian school, which country has flourished because of Confucianism?"

Kong Rong's face was red and speechless. (My novel "The Three Kingdoms of Myth" will have more fresh content on the official WeChat platform, and there is also a 100% lottery gift for everyone!
