While calling Brother Chen and Brother Liu, it can be seen that the relationship between the two sides is indeed much closer, but no matter how close they are, it is only superficial. However, when we meet for the first time, both sides still have their own thoughts, how can they really get close?

But since both sides have such an attitude, they have to continue to discuss it in such an atmosphere. Unless the atmosphere changes, Liu Jin spoke twice in order to change the atmosphere, but Chen Zhi did not give him such an opportunity.

After hearing Chen Zhi's inquiry, no one else said anything, Chen Die, who was sitting on the side raising his glass to drink, choked, then put down the glass and looked at Chen Zhi, laughing and crying.

When they entered the door just now, the two of them talked about this question, but Chen Die had limited knowledge and could not give an accurate answer. As a result, not long after, Chen Zhi asked about others, and the person he asked about was still the one who came over with other thoughts and wanted to make trouble.

Therefore, even Liu Jin himself was stunned by Chen Zhiwen. He was cold for a moment before he came to his senses. He thought in his heart whether to ignore this question and continue his own rhythm, or answer first.

However, Chen Zhi did not intend to let go, and continued, "I have heard people mention it when I came to Luoyang, saying that it is a rich collection of humanities and the essence of the world, especially many academies, which are endless and have their own advantages. I am Taileling, and I will inevitably have to deal with many academies in the future, so I have wanted to ask clearly about the situation. Unfortunately, everyone has their own belongs. After asking, they still have shortcomings. But Brother Liu, you are different. I just chatted with you, and I heard you mention that your Zhimin Pavilion is full of great scholars, and there are no white dicks in the relationship. Many academies have all been involved..."

Another compliment, but when he said this, Liu Jin's expression was very unnatural, while Chen Yong was slightly stunned, then he smiled with his beard and did not speak out.

At that time, Chen Huan could not see the form, but felt the atmosphere was harmonious and wanted to participate. He cheered from the side: "My clan brother is reasonable, Mr. Liu, you don't know. My clan brother has been asking about these things recently, and I have asked them, but I really don't know. You should tell him that you are more knowledgeable than me. You just said that the top ten academies in Luoyang have all friendships with you. The Taoist priests and monks from the temple have also gone to your place to drink tea and chat about exclamation. You must be an expert in this kind of thing."

As he spoke, he noticed that everyone stopped talking and looked over. There was a silence around him. There was a little embarrassment in the atmosphere. He also realized that something was wrong. So he stopped talking, laughed awkwardly, and stopped talking.

But after all, he said that, so Liu Jin could not pretend to be deaf and dumb, so he had to laugh dryly and said, "Actually, I have exaggerated words. The land of Luoyang is full of families and has its own merits. Nothing can be rated by me."

"It's not a review, not a review," Chen Zhi waved his hand and said with a kind look on his face. "It's me who asked, Brother Liu's answer is also a helping me. After all, I'm so happy, I can't figure out anything. The main question is what you mentioned just now, which are the top ten academies?"

As soon as this question came out, Liu Jin's handsome face suddenly showed a tooth-ache expression.

The statement of the top ten academies is a common saying, and there is no real ranking. Since ancient times, there has been no first in literature. It would be fine to say this in private, but how can it be placed on the table? The reason I mentioned just now is chatting, just like the praises of each other in later generations. Sometimes when it comes to saying it, it is inevitable to highlight others in order to show yourself. For example, no one has to know that someone is higher than you, and I talk and laugh with him.

As a result, Chen Zhi insisted on picking it out and asking, but in the name of Taileling, Liu Jin was a little passive.

"I was abrupt," suddenly, Chen Zhi took a step back. "This matter is really not easy to say. There are conflicts between the academies, and most of them have famous factors. If you put forward the top ten words, it will only increase the dispute. It is indeed inappropriate. Then let's talk casually and talk about the academies you are most familiar with with Brother Liu."

When he retreated on his own, Liu Jin breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "Okay, then I'll start with the Four Confucian Academy in the southeast, southwest and northwest."

Chen Yong watched and listened, calm on the surface, but couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"A good method. First, make a difficult proposal that makes people difficult to answer, and then take a step back and give a suitable space. But in fact, Liu Jin had the meaning of answering, but this advancement and retreat made Liu Jin feel that he had a step forward and was willing to answer. Moreover, Chen Zhi said it tactfully, but academies that could make people familiar with Liu Jin must be among the best, otherwise how valuable would it be to introduce them?"

In his feelings, Liu Jin had already introduced: "In fact, Brother Chen has come into contact with a Confucian academy on all sides of the capital."

Chen Zhixiao asked, "Zuo Yue Academy?"

Liu Jin nodded and said, "It is Zuoyue Academy. This academy is located west of Luoyang and is the leader of many Confucian academies in the west. The mountain chief was born in the Hongnong Yang family, and several Guanzhong clans were involved. In addition, the Confucian classics east of Luoyang are mainly Zhiyuan Academy. The mountain chiefs of all dynasties have been responsible for the people of the Zhuge family, but they are not limited to this. The large families in Nanyang and the Wang family of Langya have great influence in this academy."

Chen Zhi tasted it for a moment before he said: "The Zhuge family is powerful and covers the north and south. Langya is the root, Nanyang is the stem, and there are also the branches of Jiangzuo. It is normal to gather such power."

"The next one is Shendu Academy in the north of Luoyang. The current mountain leader of this academy is the Xun family in Yingchuan. This academy has received help from all northern families. All the mountain leaders are from northern families." Liu Jin deliberately streamlined a lot when introducing Shendu Academy.

"Is this academy helped the major aristocratic tribes in the north? It's interesting." Chen Zhi said, and asked again: "There are both east and west, and the next one should be the south. What's the origin?" As the saying goes, I don't know if I don't ask. After asking, Chen Zhi realized that many academys are actually not that simple. They can gain a foothold in Luoyang and inherit it all have backgrounds.

No wonder it's not easy to manage.

"The most famous academy in the south is the Jianshan Academy. It is said that it was advocated by Chen Hou. At first, when Chen Hou was training troops, a lecture hall was set up in the camp. All the teachings were not very profound. Someone asked why soldiers and soldiers should study. Chen Hou argued with him and mentioned that Daze and Yangsheng were both good at the world. After Chen Hou died, Emperor Zhaolie was grateful for his aspirations and established Jianshan Academy, Xuanwu's northern expedition, unified the Central Plains, and returned to Luoyang. This Jianshan Academy also moved here."

Is Jianshan Academy?

Chen Zhi's eyes were dazed, and he also noticed that when introducing this academy, Liu Jin's expression and tone were obviously different, with a little bit of longing.

After a moment of movement, Chen Zhi asked with the flow: "I wonder which school is related to? Who is the contemporary mountain leader?" This Jianshan Academy was under the banner of Chen Hou, but Chen Zhi knew that this academy had nothing to do with him, but after hearing this introduction, he felt strange in his heart. Therefore, when he asked this question, he also understood that in this era of ninth-rank officials, it was impossible for academy to be separated from aristocratic families and inherited separately.

Sure enough, Liu Jin introduced: "Since moving north from the academy, there have been Zhang family, Zhou family, and Lu family as the mountain leader in the past 30 years, and the contemporary mountain leader has served as the Gu family in Jiangdong, but the next one has been decided to be the member of the Zhu family in Jiangdong."

"The Zhang family, Zhou family, Gu family, etc. are all great families in Jiangdong. It seems that the background of this Jianshan Academy is just a shell and has long become a tool for the great families in Jiangnan. This is true, after all, they moved from Jiangdong."

Chen Zhi felt like a mirror, but he still felt a little sad, but then he couldn't help laughing: "I still think too much. How can the limitations of the times change because of my previous life? After all, death is like a lamp extinguished. No matter how much prepared you have in your lifetime, you will still be overwhelmed by history. What's more, I didn't do anything. Many of the so-called Chen Hou's actions are just pseudonyms. Then again, if I really get it once and for all, then how can I still work hard in this life? If I really have regrets, I might as well make up for it in this life."

Liu Jin, who was opposite, naturally had no way to know these thoughts. After talking about the four academies, he said: "In addition to these Confucian academies in all directions, there is another one in the city that once flourished, but now it is slightly declining, called Yangjing Academy. Well, there are only a few academies..." As he said that, he planned to stop the topic, otherwise, if he continued to talk about it today, he would just come to solve the problem of Chen Zhi, and that would be a shame to others.

Unfortunately, Chen Zhi was unwilling to stop like this, and then asked again: "Since you are talking about Confucian academies, there must be other families. In addition, I heard that Buddhism and Taoism are still circulated in the capital, and these are closely related to Taile Ling. Please continue with Brother Liu."

Liu Jin's expression changed continuously. He wanted to refuse, but he didn't want to answer. He just said that, come here today, where does it come from?

Just as he was in a dilemma, Chen Ju suddenly walked up to Chen Zhi, stopped, and said respectfully: "Young Master, there is news coming from our yard, saying that Taichang sent someone to let you go ahead and discuss something."

"Taichang asked me to call me? Before the time came, I asked me to go there early. Something happened to this matter. Since he was Shangguan, how could he refuse? I was going to go there."

Chen Zhi changed his mind and turned around to apologize to Chen Yong.

Chen Yong waved his hand and said, "You go there first. It's not a private matter for Taichang to send you over. The important matter of the court."

Chen Zhi nodded and said to Liu Jin again: "It's a pity. I haven't been able to enjoy my whole life today, nor can I ask clearly about the situation of other hundreds of academies. Let's talk about you and I will talk about you some more days. Chen said goodbye."

Liu Jin and others bowed down one after another, and they all said that serious matters.

When Chen Zhi's back left, Liu Jin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, feeling that there was no need to continue introducing other companies.

"If you introduce it further, let me tell you, today I am just here to give Chen Zhi some advice. I am going to be misunderstood that it is really making friends with him. I was entrusted by Brother Xun to let Chen Zhi show his voice... It's wrong!"

As he thought about it, Liu Jin suddenly came to his senses and looked shocked.
