Because when Gong Xiuyi was in charge of the state of Lu, the king of the state of Lu was named Xian, and his posthumous title was Duke Mu.

Duke Mu was a rare leader of the ZTE in the history of Lu.

Moreover, he is a kind-hearted person who can tolerate all kinds of opinions. He also knows how to treat virtuous people and actively promote talents.

When Duke Mu was in power, he solemnly worshiped Confucius' grandson Zisi as his national advisor.

Well, it was Mencius’ teacher named Kong Ji.

At that time, the State of Lu could be said to have achieved a renaissance, with the government being well-organized and people being harmonious.

However, later, Duke Mu did something that made all Confucian scholars in Shandong jump in fear.

After reigning for more than ten years, Duke Mu formally and solemnly invited Mozi, a prominent scholar in the world at that time and competing with Yang Zi's theory, to enter the state of Lu to teach knowledge and accept disciples.

This is something recorded in history books.

Although there is no record of Lu Mo's final outcome in the history books.

However, it is recorded that Gong Xiuyi, the prime minister at that time, "plucked the sunflowers and went to weave".

To pull sunflowers means to pull out the sunflowers grown at home, and to weave means to smash the looms at home.

These two things happened at the same time point and led to the same consequence: divorce!

Considering that agricultural technology, farming technology, and weaving technology were all developed and promoted by the Mohists at that time, farmers had not yet separated from the Mohists.

When people take off the sunflowers and weave them during public holidays, who is they targeting and who are they speaking to?

There is no doubt about it!

Only in this way can the logic make sense.

After all, Gong Xiuyi is not an idiot or a lunatic.

but……

Hu Wusheng had no intention of exposing this window covering and telling the world the bloody truth.

After all, after all, Gong Xiuyi is one of our own, while the Mohists are enemies on the opposite side, or at least competitors.

"I disagree with what Mr. Yang said..." Hu Wusheng said with a faint smile: "Because the examples and remarks Mr. Yang cited come from Huang Laoxue's theory!"

"What Huang Lao said is indeed a lot of good advice, but it is not my Confucian theory!"

When the Confucian scholar named Yang heard this, he quickly lowered his head in shame.

What Hu Wusheng said is correct.

The remarks and attitudes of the Lu-Ru faction on this issue are strikingly similar to some factions of the Huang-Lao faction.

"Moreover, Zhuangzi's words are absurd and unfounded, and cannot be trusted!" Hu Wusheng immediately followed up.

"What you are discussing comes from the story of Zigong contained in "Zhuangzi. Heaven and Earth"..."

In fact, the rise of comments like this among Lu Ru, or some factions of the Huang-Lao sect, was very short-lived.

Although, as early as in the time of Zhuangzi, there was already such a statement.

However, this kind of speech will not flourish until after the Zhulu Rebellion and the Qin Dynasty is destroyed.

From that time on, everything related to Qin was labeled as an alternative.

It was also from that time on that mechanical fraud, uncanny skills and mechanical decoration became the main firepower of the world's public opinion against Qin.

Rather than saying that similar remarks are the meaning of the sages, it is better to say that they are the meaning of today's people.

And it is a momentum created for political purposes.

If you look at the logic, you will see that it is confusing and inconsistent.

What scheming, pure white, it’s just like Zhuangzi.

However, because Zhuangzi pulled out Zigong and treated him as the protagonist, when the Confucians saw it, they felt as if they had found a treasure, and then it became their own...

If everything remained unchanged, Hu Wusheng would not bother to take care of it.

After all, as a scholar, he also has to talk about politics.

If you don't talk about politics, you will be abandoned by politics. A school that is abandoned by politics is tantamount to self-destruction.

Now, today, what do you want to do?

It's not a secret at all.

He may have the same hatred and hostility toward merchants as the emperors of all generations.

But for machinery and craftsmen, the emperor showed unusual enthusiasm.

He revived the Mohist family and asked the ministers to establish Baigongyuan to vigorously promote and develop various new machines, new methods and new technologies.

It was enough for Hu Wusheng to realize that people today have been dissatisfied with the so-called "mechanical heart", "mechanical decoration" and "wonderful skills and tricks" for a long time.

Moreover, today's people still don't like representatives of Qingliu like Gong Xiuyi.

Since the emperor has expressed this.

As an ambitious and ideal student.

Of course Hu Wusheng knew, what should he do?

Of course, I am relieving your worries and taking the lead for the king.

Hu Wusheng looked at the crowd and explained: "Zhuangzi wrote the "Heaven and Earth" chapter, and the story of Zigong contained in it is not named in the book or seen on the slips. The description is doubtful, and the result is that it is Zigong.

From what I can see, Mr. Zigong is too stupid! It doesn’t match Zhongni’s evaluation of Zigong at all!”

Among the seventy-two disciples of Confucius, Zigong, Yan Hui, Zi Lu and Zi Xia were all outstanding ones.

What did Confucius say back then?

The result is the fruit, the gift is the achievement, and the seeking is the art.

Since (Zi Lu) has the ability to be decisive, (Zi Gong) is given to be reasonable, knowledgeable, and Qiu (Ran Qiu) is versatile.

How could a reasonable person end up in a situation like that in Zhuangzi's "Heaven and Earth"?

What's more, throughout Zhuangzi's text, he uses another person's voice to describe the so-called mechanical changes.

Moreover, its so-called mechanical changes seem to be more of a philosophical issue than a practical issue.

"What's more, today, gentlemen, please see: Who in the world today does not use waterwheels for irrigation and machinery for power?" Hu Wusheng said decisively: "Have you ever seen any household that uses waterwheels?

So you have deceitful intentions and want to bring disaster to the world?"
