Chapter 042: Determining the Future of Confucianism

In the house that was just overcrowded, in a blink of an eye, only Chunyu Yue and Fu Sheng were left.

Fu Sheng carefully rolled up the "Analects of Confucius" - this was carved by Yan Hui, a disciple who passed down from Confucius.

If it weren't for the increasing difficulties of Xiang Chunyu today, he would definitely not have taken out this book "The Analects of Confucius". He originally planned to pass it on to his descendants as a family heirloom.

"Chunyu Yue, what did you think!" Fu Sheng said in anger: "The court did such a thing, and in the afternoon, Zhang Ping and the other four went to the tower. What are your intentions?"

"Brother Fu, you don't need to pay attention to these things and do your knowledge with peace of mind. The more you can guarantee that there will still be Confucianism in the future, but whether the Confucians in the future will be the Confucians today is the Confucians in the future? That is Brother Fu's business. Haven't you and me always divided the labor like this?"

Chunyu Yue smiled implicitly, his eyebrows and eyes were soft, and he did not look like he was holding a grudge against Fu Sheng.

If Chunyu Yue had said this in the past, Fu Sheng would have given up. The conversation between the two of them has not been once or twice.

But this time it won't work.

Fu Sheng's palm was carved from the knife on the bamboo slip, and the bamboo patterns were traversing.

The rough and sunken touch made Fu Sheng unable to calm down.

The road to the spread of Confucianism is also so bumpy.

He and Chunyu Yue had agreed before.

One main inside - study Confucianism.

One is the main force - to spread Confucianism.

Fu Sheng thought that what he did was several times more difficult than what Chunyu Yue did.

Now he found out that he was wrong.

Because of studying Confucianism, at least there is no worries about life or reputation.

Chunyu Yue not only almost lost his head today, but also almost lost his reputation.

After Fu Sheng rolled the bamboo slips, he spread a straw mat leaning against the wall on the ground.

He took off the teapot and tea cup made of clay from the table and placed it in the center of the straw mat.

Fu Sheng dragged his shoes away, knelt on one side of the straw mat, pointed his palm flat on the other side of the straw mat, and said to Chunyu Yue: "Sit."

"Why is this?"

Chunyu Yue had no choice but to take off his shoes, and kneeled on the other side of the straw mat, sitting opposite Fu Sheng.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucius led his disciples to travel around the countries and encountered a wall, with the help of Ran Qiu, he finally returned to his parents' country of Lu.

From then on, Confucius focused on writing, editing and organizing the Book of Songs, Book of Books, and Book of Rites, and writing the Spring and Autumn Annals from his own point of view.

At the same time, the lectures were held, and no matter how high or low the lectures were held, everyone was sitting on the ground, with a maximum of 3,000 disciples.

This is just sitting and discussing the truth.

From then on, if any Confucian disciples pose in a straight sitting position, they invite them to sit together and discuss.

If you accept the invitation, it means that the topic you are talking about next is the most solemn and serious.

Although the teapot is called a teapot, what is poured out is not tea soup, but hot water.

Tea soup is a luxury item that only high-ranking officials with an annual salary of more than 1,000 shi can afford to drink.

In the Qin Dynasty, it was already extremely good to be able to drink hot water anytime and anywhere. After all, charcoal for boiling water was very expensive.

Fu Sheng held the teacup with both hands and handed it to Chunyu Yue, and said seriously: "Sheng apologizes to Brother Chunyu. Today, he is not aware of the current affairs. If Brother Chunyu still recognizes Sheng, please drink this cup. And tell Sheng truthfully what you think."

Chunyu Yue also took the teacup from Fu Sheng's hand and said indifferently: "As both Confucianism, why are you wrong?"

He handed the teacup three inches to his mouth, paused for a moment, and put the teacup handed by Fu Sheng back to the straw mat.

"Brother Chunyu doesn't drink, but he won't forgive his life?"

Chunyu Yue looked at Fu Sheng with a little confused and anxious look. He had no choice but to use this nerd who only knows how to read.

After sighing, Chunyu Yue was extremely helpless and a word popped out of his mouth.

"hot!"

The water in the teapot is the boiling water that Chunyu Yue had just boiled.

It doesn’t take Chunyu Yue to send it to his mouth. The distance is three inches, and the heat will burn his lips and hurt!

"Well, I'm not thinking well again, I'm not thinking well."

Looking at Fu Sheng's embarrassing appearance, Chunyu Yue said sincerely: "Brother Fu, let's just sit down today."

"No! You must be familiar with Brother Chunyu's difficulties and solve Brother Chunyu's problems! You and I are both Confucian disciples, so you should advance and retreat together!" Fu Sheng decisively rejected it with a generous look on his face.

"...Okay." Chunyu Yue couldn't bear to hit Fu Sheng again.

He agreed, but thought in his heart: Just studying knowledge will help me the greatest help.

"Qin Xiaogong promoted Gongsun Yang, a man from Wei, and Gongsun Yang's reforms made Qin powerful. After six generations of Qin kings, they all followed the foundation of governing the country by law, and there was no change at all. Now Your Majesty can unify the world, and the Fa family has made great contributions. What Yue said, can Brother Fu recognize it?"

Although Fu Sheng was unwilling to do so, he was a person who was unwilling to say lies.

On the road to the rise of Qin, the Legalists did play a huge role. The Confucian disciples came to the Qin court after the world was unified.

Fu Sheng nodded reluctantly, not even wanting to say the word "recognize".

Chunyu Yue continued: "Although Your Majesty is familiar with the classics of various schools of thought, his tendency is an absolute Legalist. Your Majesty is Han Fei, and his troops are against Han Guo, and he is highly employed by Li Si, who was once a rebel against Lu Buwei, and let Li Si be the court lieutenant of the Nine Ministers. He asked the officials of Guanzhong county and county to popularize the Qin law to the people, and everything is determined by the law. What Your Majesty did is enough to see that your Majesty only favors the Legalists. The Legalists' status in Qin cannot be shaken."

Fu Sheng was stunned when he heard this.

This was the first time Fu Sheng heard these words. Chunyu Yue had never said them to him in the past, and he had never cared about any situation.

He was only obsessed with Confucianism and studied books such as "Shangshu" and "Analects of Confucius".

"In the court, hasn't my Confucian disciples surpassed those of the Legal disciples?"

"That's all false."

Chunyu Yue shook his head and said, "Most of my Confucian disciples are doctors with an annual salary of 600 stones. They have the power but have no actual positions. They just seem to be a lot of people and powerful people. On the other hand, the Legalists have the upper court, the Shangqing Tingwei, who has an annual salary of 2,000 stones, the Tingwei Supervisor, and the Tingwei Zheng. The Tingwei Mansion, which is located on the Zhengzhong Avenue of Xianyang, is better to call the Fajia Mansion."

"Ha, my Confucianism is not only not as good as the Legalists, but also other schools. The disciples of the Zongheng family are suddenly weak and the disciples of the famous family are the Shangqing, and the disciples of the famous family are the Shangqing, and even the Mengfu family are the Shangqing. My Confucianism is as numerous as many people, but there is no Shangqing!"

Perhaps it was because of the inner plan that I had never told others that these things were so depressed in Chunyu Yue's heart that I had been so depressed that I could never stop. Before Fu Sheng could speak, Chunyu Yue continued to tell.

"My Confucian power is manifested in governing the country and ensuring the people, and not in expeditions and fighting. In the chaotic times, it is difficult for me to compete with each other for power. When Qin State heard about the war, his Majesty was happy, and your Majesty was very happy about his achievements. Therefore, those who are in high positions in Qin Hall have no self-disciplined disciples."

"Your Majesty leads the world with the law and accepts my Confucianism into Qin, which is just an act of gathering people's hearts. In fact, Your Majesty has not taken Confucianism into his eyes for a moment. If you want my Confucianism to return to the school of enlightenment, it is impossible to rely on your majesty who is powerful and powerful. Therefore, the prominence of my Confucianism lies in the death of Your Majesty, and in the second generation of Qin!"
