Weiyang Palace, the court discussion.
A shadow hung over the faces of every court official present.
They knew that no matter whether it was good or bad, they had to come up with a conclusion regarding the matter of the Cloud King.
If they continued to let things go, such a chaotic situation would definitely shake the prestige of the imperial court.
"For the sake of the imperial court, we can only let His Highness the Cloud King suffer for the time being!”
"Yes, the Cloud King is young and experienced. He should be able to understand the difficulties of the imperial court!”
"That's right. As the son of His Majesty, the Cloud King should take the initiative to share the burden of the imperial court!”
A few scholarly scholars were discussing in low voices in the hall.
Although their official positions were not high and their power was not great, they had a lot of influence on the fishing boats of the government.
These words represented the current mainstream view of fishing vessels.
"Bullsh * t! The Cloud King didn't do anything wrong, so why should he be punished?”
Prime Minister Shentu Jia had a straightforward and stubborn personality. Once he had set his mind on something, even nine oxen could not pull him back.
Even though he was old, his fiery temper was not any less than before.
As he cursed, he rolled up his sleeves and looked like he was ready to fight.
The few professors on the other side could only cover their heads and flee.
It wasn't that he couldn't beat him, but the old Prime Minister was already so old.
If anything happened, no one could bear the responsibility.
There were many people watching the show, but none of them went forward to help pull.
The latent strength of the scholarly faction was too great, and it had already caused the other sects to be on guard.
"His Majesty the Emperor has arrived!"
After Emperor Jing and Liu Qi entered the hall, the surroundings immediately fell silent.
He first looked around and then slowly sat down.
Some of the more attentive officials could not help but notice that the Emperor's complexion seemed to look much better today.
Just as they were puzzled, an official took out a memorial and read it out in front of everyone.
"Why Wang Yue? This is the unification of the Spring and Autumn Period!"
After hearing these few words, the faces of the civil officials present changed drastically.
Among them were the giants of the Huang School, the elites of the Legalism School, and even the big shots of the Confucian School.
These few words rang in their ears like the morning bell.
Many of the questions that had been lingering in his heart in the past suddenly had an answer at this moment.
"Unification means that the unification of all things is one…This means that all the princes are under the control of the Son of Heaven and cannot be autocratic.”
Hearing this, a great scholar who majored in the Spring and Autumn Annals burst into tears and shouted in his heart,"This must be an article that only a great sage of my sect can write. I will treat him as a teacher.”
He felt like he was on a pilgrimage, as if he was seeing the rebirth of the philosophers.
Chao Cuo's face was pale, and his body trembled slightly. It was a tremble that came from the depths of his soul.
Dou Guangde, the only surviving big shot of Elder Huang's faction, closed his eyes slightly. He nodded and frowned at times.
Although the generals didn't quite understand what he was saying, upon careful thought, the contents of the memorial were a true reflection of some of their thoughts.
Unification was not only about culture, but also about the sovereignty of the feudal lords.
If you want to achieve this, you can't do without us martial artists.
This was the most honest thought in the hearts of many generals.
"Therefore, the king was ordered to rule the world in the first month, so that all things would worship it as the beginning, so it is called great unification.”
In the palace, the eunuch continued to recite the contents of the memorial.
The more they listened, the greater the impact on the officials.
The scholars of Legalism and the Old Huang School were even more pained, lamenting why such a profound truth was written by someone else.
Some of the fast-reacting students had already made up their minds to add this idea into their own theories when they returned.
Apart from a few who cultivated Spring and Autumn, the rest of the elders of the scholarly faction all wore mournful expressions.
At this time, the internal conflict within the scholarly faction was much more intense than the conflict outside.
The losers would be wiped out in both words and spirit, which was more than ten times more ruthless than pure physical destruction.
Emperor Jing, Liu Qi, took in the performance of everyone in the Imperial Court. He understood why they had lost their composure.
The significance of this memorial was simply too important. It could even create an opportunity to unify the theories of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy.。
The word " great unity " in this article did not mean great in size, but great in respect.
Unification refers to the vassals of the world being unified by the emperor.
Therefore, the term 'unification' referred to the unification of the country's politics, economic system, and culture.
However, the " unification " was different. The " unification " here referred to the vastness of the territory, while the " unification " was more in terms of the region.
Although the two words Shun County had been swapped, the two were two completely different concepts in terms of ideology.
The idea of " Great Unity " originated from the Spring and Autumn Period. The various schools of thought had different ideas, but there was a consensus on the idea of " Great Unity ".
In response to the chaotic situation of "the conquest of rites and music came from the princes", Confucius proposed "the conquest of rites and music came from the Son of Heaven". The ideal emperor in Confucius 'heart should have the authority to unify the world.
Mencius advocated that "the monarch is benevolent and the subjects are righteous, and the monarch and the people are happy together". The world is "fixed in one". He believed that "there are no two suns in the sky, and there are no two kings in the people".
Xunzi believed that the heavens and earth gave birth to a gentleman, and a gentleman governed the heavens and earth. A gentleman is the ruler of heaven and earth, the ruler of all things, and the parents of the people.”
Han Feizi believed that "one habitat, two heroes","one family, two nobles","Husband and wife ruling together" was the cause of the country's chaos, so it should be set as one.
In the Spring and Autumn Annals of the Lü family, it was said,"The king holds one, and all things are right." One rule, two chaos."
Mozi said,"What the superior thinks right, he thinks right. The people of the world are all superior to the Son of Heaven.”
It could be seen that Confucianism, Legalism, and Mohism had different expressions of the concept of "unification", but they all emphasized the unification of government decrees from top to bottom.
In the end, when everyone heard the clear voice, there was only one question left in their hearts:
"Who is he?"
Who could write a thought-provoking article that was comparable to the voice of the Holy Road?
