"It's the father of the city lord's wife. Isn't that the great Confucian scholar Cai Yong, Mr. Bo Ji? Oh my God, this is a true great scholar. In Chinese history, there are only a few such great scholars in each era. Every one of them is erudite and knowledgeable. They are living treasures and are respected and loved by the world."
"It's Mr. Cai Yong. It is said that when Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang and took control of the power, he did not dare to offend a great scholar like Cai Yong easily. He had to be polite and respectful when meeting him. To offend a great scholar is to offend the entire Confucian school and the scholars of the world."
"On the Eternal Continent, all worlds merged, and the relatives who were originally separated were able to reunite. It was simply incredible. It was so rare. In this world, we are in troubled times. We don't know what will happen tomorrow. No one knows if they can survive. Perhaps, the other party has already died, died in the wilderness, ferocious beasts, monsters, and alien races. Every moment is full of danger. It is a miracle that they can meet alive."
"There are so many scholars, but why are there old farmers and doctors? Where did the city lord go to? He actually brought back so many people. Moreover, it seems that each of them is extraordinary. They are all monks, not ordinary people. Who are these people?"
The people in Xuanhuang City, seeing what happened, were all secretly puzzled.
But everyone can feel that the sudden arrival of these students will inevitably bring amazing changes to the development of the entire Xuanhuang City.
The help generated is immeasurable.
"Jia Yucun!1"
Yi Tianxing shouted.
"I'm here." Jia Yucun had already hurried over, and when he heard the call, he stood up the first time.
"Are there any vacant houses in the city to accommodate these scholars and students?" Yi Tianxing asked.
"Please rest assured, my lord. A number of houses have been reserved in the city, but no one is living there yet. We can temporarily accommodate them there. We can talk about other things later," Jia Yucun said decisively.
"Well, I'll leave the matter of settling them down to you for now. If possible, you can register their household registration, issue them Tianji cards, and arrange for someone to explain to them the changes in Xuanhuang City today."
Yi Tianxing nodded and gave the order directly.
Now these people have a sense of belonging to Xuanhuang City. What they need to do now is to completely confirm this sense of belonging. Once they really settle down in Xuanhuang City, other things can be completed naturally.
At this time, Cai Yong and Cai Yan also controlled their emotions, but the excitement and happiness on their faces could not be concealed.
When he looked at Yi Tianxing again, Cai Yong's eyes truly showed the look of a father-in-law looking at his son-in-law, and his mentality and thoughts had changed fundamentally.
"Yi Tianxing has met my father-in-law. Please forgive me for being with Zhao Ji without his consent."
Yi Tianxing immediately paid a formal visit to Cai Yong.
This is a sign of respect for one's elders.
"Don't worry about these etiquettes. In this situation of the fusion of all worlds, there are too many unknowns. No one knows whether relatives can be reunited. If you can't see me in your life, you and Zhao Ji will never get married. Isn't this nonsense? There is no such thing in the world."
Cai Yong said with a smile.
Now he looked at Yi Tianxing with more and more satisfaction.
Capable and courageous.
A son-in-law who could build such a huge city from scratch in a short period of time, and even form a sphere of influence, becoming a hegemonic figure in charge of tens of millions of human beings, such a son-in-law would be hard to find even with a lantern. But he happened to fall into my hands. I wonder what I am dissatisfied with.
Cai Yong laughed and was ecstatic about this from the bottom of his heart.
Especially when I saw my daughter's appearance, she didn't look unhappy at all, which made me even more satisfied.
He is truly the perfect son-in-law.
Nothing to fault.
"Since my son-in-law is determined to make a career, I, as his father-in-law, must help him in any way I can. Yan'er is still too naive. Although my son-in-law has only one woman now, as his power expands and becomes stronger, he will definitely have many women around him in the future, whether for profit or other reasons. If he doesn't have a backer, his position will probably be threatened in the future."
Cai Yong was a great scholar, but he was also a father.
Especially when we met again after separation, I had an even stronger urge to do something for her.
Cai Yan may not want to think about it, but he cannot.
"Tianxing, I plan to rebuild the Jixia Academy in Xuanhuang City."
Cai Yong suddenly spoke.
"Please ask my father-in-law and General Qi to come to the City Lord's Mansion for a detailed discussion." Yi Tianxing's eyes flashed with a strange light. He did not agree immediately, but asked them to go back to the City Lord's Mansion and talk about it later.
"good!!"
Cai Yong glanced at the City Lord's Mansion standing on the palace's precious tree, nodded, and a hint of curiosity arose in his heart.
Yi Tianxing smiled and took Cai Yan's hand, then walked ahead, step by step, towards the City Lord's Mansion.
Huang Chengyan, Jia Xu and others also followed.
In the backyard, in the huge gazebo.
Yi Tianxing sat in the first seat, and Cai Yan also sat beside him.
Huang Chengyan and others also sat on it.
A maid brought out some seasonal fruits and placed them in front of them.
Lai He has gone to prepare the meal.
It was only early morning now. It was the best time to have breakfast. They had just come back and Yi Tianxing and the others had not eaten anything. A delicious meal was more suitable than anything else.
"Brother Bo Ji, what you just said was that you were planning to rebuild the Jixia Academy." Huang Chengyan spoke first.
"That's right. Since Yan'er has followed Tianxing, I, an old man, don't plan to leave here. I don't plan to interfere in official affairs anymore. All I can do is teach and educate people. Moreover, among the many students brought from the academy this time, there must be those who are unwilling to serve as officials and those who are suitable to govern a region. Staying in the academy to teach and educate people can make the best use of them. Talents will not be wasted."
Cai Yong nodded and spoke slowly.
"Excuse me for being blunt, but we need to build an academy. However, I think that what we need to build is not the Jixia Academy. Instead, it is a new academy that is unique to our Xuanhuang City. There can be one, two, three, or even ten or a hundred Jixia Academy. The Jixia Academy is separated, and there must be more than one site. With the inheritance, anyone is qualified to build a Jixia Academy. Instead of doing this, it is better to build a unique academy. The name is different, but the nature can be the same."
Jia Xu suddenly spoke.
The position of Jixia Academy in history is naturally extremely important and pivotal. In the eyes of every cultivator of the Hundred Schools, it is a holy place. In their minds, it has a lofty status that is almost unshakable.
This is the Eternal Continent, and the Jixia Academy has long since split into various ruins.
As long as they got the ruins, they would be qualified to build the Jixia Academy. This was what Cai Yong planned.
But Yi Tianxing did not want to rebuild a Jixia Academy. He wanted to build an academy that could also be built in other places. If he really wanted to build one, he would encounter a similar academy in the future and he would not know who would be the main one and who would be the secondary one.
This alone is enough to make people think twice.
Moreover, Yi Tianxing did not want to follow the footsteps of others.
It’s not that he can’t inherit, but he wants to take a new path.
"If we give up the name of Jixia Academy, I'm afraid the road will become more difficult in the future. The name of Jixia Academy can naturally attract a large number of students and literati." Cai Yong shook his head and said.
It would be a pity to give up this advantage.
"It's not a pity. Although we don't use the name of Jixia Academy, we can still use its influence. Moreover, the influence of an academy is often related to the corresponding power. As long as Xuanhuang City is strong enough, it is not as difficult as imagined for the academy to develop. Jixia Academy was also built step by step from scratch. If others can do it, then so can Xuanhuang City."
Yi Tianxing said with confidence.
"I agree with what my lord said. Although the Jixia Academy has a very high status. However, this is the eternal world and everything is a new beginning. If we can build an academy and eventually its status can surpass that of the Jixia Academy, then the person who founded the academy will surely be remembered through the ages instead of just repeating what others have said." Jia Xu said slowly.
Passed down through the ages!!
As soon as these words came out, Cai Yong's eyes suddenly showed a trace of emotion.
You know, the greatest wish of literati is to leave their reputation for generations to come. If they can achieve this, they will not feel any regrets even after death. Rebuilding the Jixia Academy may bring about a great reputation, but after all, it is impossible to pass it down through the ages.
And if one could establish an academy that could rival or even surpass the Jixia Academy, one could imagine that it would truly be remembered through the ages and would be worshipped and admired by countless scholars and students.
This is not about reclaiming history, but about creating history.
In an instant, this sentence was like a magic, madly taking root in my heart and difficult to erase.
"I wonder what kind of academy you plan to build, Tianxing."
Cai Yong took a deep breath and asked again.
This time, a hint of interest was revealed in his words.
Because he also felt that if he really did this, there might be a chance of success.
"I am going to build a brand new academy. This academy will be like the Jixia Academy, which can accommodate various branches. It will accommodate hundreds of schools of thought, adhere to the principle of openness, allow the birth of all ideas, and allow all kinds of doctrines to spread in the academy. I hope to reproduce the brilliant civilization explosion during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. It is not only about cultivating literature, but also martial arts. Hundreds of schools of thought coexist, and truly realize freedom of thought and academic freedom. We strive to gather all kinds of wisdom and collide with different sparks of wisdom. Promote the entire human civilization into a new process."
A different light flashed in Yi Tianxing's eyes, and he spoke decisively.
