As one of the hundreds of schools of thought in the Xia Dynasty today, although it is not as prominent as Confucianism, Mohism, Legalism and Taoism, it is still one of the few schools among the hundreds of schools. Its founder was Zheng Guo and Deng Xi at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, and it reached its peak more than a hundred years ago.
.
In particular, Hui Shi, a disciple of the famous master Li Jianbai, was once the prime minister of the overlord Wei State, which made the famous master famous for a while. Later, Gongsun Long, a disciple of Li Jianbai of the famous master, created his own White Horse Feima and Jian Baishi Er, which made the famous master even more famous.
Zhu Xia.
It is a pity that after Gongsun Longzi, the number of disciples of famous masters gradually became rare and their popularity gradually declined, so that not many people in the entire Zhuxia know about the specific successors of famous masters.
The Dunruo in front of him was a disciple of Gongsun Long. He studied in various countries, and was finally appreciated by the King of Qin in the Qin State. He entered the pedestrian office, took the position of Shangqing, and issued secret orders.
"No, Linglong is the direct grandson of my grandmaster, Sun Longzi."
"Now that I am walking through the territory of Qi, Junior Sister Linglong is accompanying me to increase my knowledge and improve my knowledge of the masters. Although she is weak in age, she is quite good at the studies of the masters. She will be able to contribute to the great king in the future!"
Throughout the rise and fall of famous families over the past hundreds of years, when they prospered, their disciples held important official positions in various countries, such as Hui Shi serving as the prime minister of Wei a hundred years ago, and his master Gongsun Longzi serving as minister a few decades ago.
A retainer of Lord Pingyuan of the State of Zhao.
Relying on the influence of the general trend, fame has skyrocketed. Now that famous families are in decline, if you want to revitalize famous families, you have to take that path. Looking at the countries of Xia today, only Qin can satisfy this.
If the Qin State can dominate the world in the future, then famous people will have great benefits. Dunqiang is very clear about this. Therefore, in recent days, he has been walking around the Qi State with his junior sister Gongsun Linglong to enhance his knowledge.
"Gongsun Linglong, the direct grandson of Gongsun Longzi!"
"For hundreds of years, hundreds of schools have not entered the Qin Dynasty, and hundreds of schools have underestimated the Qin Dynasty for a long time. When it comes to the end of the world, we must make a good settlement with the hundreds of families. The famous family has you, and the inheritance will be preserved in the future."
"It's just that there are too many problems in the inheritance of famous masters. The contract is different, the distance is strong, and the water and fire are not close. Don't you know that in the universe, yin and yang are interdependent, and there is no eternal difference, and there is no eternal unity!"
What is a contract difference?
Everything in heaven and earth is connected and unified!
What is Lijianbai?
Everything in heaven and earth is in separation and opposition!
He waved with one hand to Dunrui and Gongsun Linglong, who were standing quietly in the hall. He also knelt down and sat down behind the desk. He glanced left and right. Shanrou and Shanmei stood up slowly and walked closer to wait without saying a word.
, quite peaceful.
Among hundreds of scholars, the inheritance of Taoism originates from the nature of heaven and earth. As long as the nature of heaven and earth is immortal, then Taoism will last forever, and Taoists will last forever. The inheritance of Confucianism originates from the three generations, from benevolence, etiquette, etc., mainly the people of Xia also have morality.
Confucianism will never stop feeling ashamed.
However, the inheritance of famous people is stubborn and difficult to pronounce. Things under normal thinking have become something else after analysis, which is contrary to common sense. Even if famous people have the position of inheritance in the future, it will be difficult for them to grow.
"What Mr. Wu Zhenjun said is true. When Master was still alive, he discussed Taoism with a great Mohist. When talking about this matter, the great Mohist once came up with the theory of firmness and whiteness. Later, when he met the Confucian master Xun Kuang, he also had a command to guide him.
Realistic theory."
"In recent years, I have traveled around the Xia Dynasty and asked hundreds of schools. I have gained a lot. I think I can make the famous masters go further!"
As the most amazing successor of Mingjia in the contemporary era, Dunwei is naturally the most aware of Mingjia's own problems. The two factions of contract differences and Lijianbai seem to be distinct, but in fact they may not be the yin and yang mentioned by Wu Zhenjun just now.
However, today I came here not for the inheritance of famous masters. I straightened my body, raised my hand to the graceful person in front of me who was pouring wine for myself, picked up the wine glass, looked up, and drank lightly.
"No need to be polite."
"A few months ago in Daliang City, Yao Jia also looked for me and wanted me to look for the black and white jade. Today, sir, I am here too. Is it because of the black and white jade?"
Dun Ruo was in charge of the errands of the pedestrian bureau. Under the circumstances of distant friendship and close attack, there was no need for him to interfere in all matters. He nodded to his subordinate Dun Wen again, and changed the subject of the conversation to the main topic of the day.
Although I am a Daowu Zhenjun, I don’t need to come to pay my respects to him if I am weak. However, today, when the other party comes to heaven and earth in person, I think he has something else to do.
"Last year, the celestial phenomena changed drastically, and seven pieces of black and white mysterious jade appeared in the seven kingdoms."
"Among the seven pieces of black and white xuan jade today, the xuan jade from Chu, Han, and Wei have entered the Qin Dynasty, leaving only Qi, Yan, and Zhao. If my expectations are correct, in a short time, the xuan jade from Zhao will be
Chuan should also enter the Qin State."
"Although this piece of black and white mystical jade from the Qi Kingdom fell into the hands of the Sword Master Cao Qiudao, it was not Cao Qiudao who really decided the ownership of the black and white mystical jade. This is a good idea!"
Dunruo shook his head. Although he was in the Qi Kingdom, all the things that happened in the Shandong countries came into his eyes. The seven pieces of black and white mysterious jade should have been done by the Yin Yang family of a hundred families, but the specific purpose was unknown.
For decades, the prime minister of Qi State has served Qin with courtesy. As long as all the mysterious jade except Qi State's are obtained, then, Qi State's piece will automatically enter Xianyang City. Here, Dunwei has great confidence.
"If it's not a matter of Xuanyu, why is it?"
The seven pieces of black and white mysterious jade have now fallen into the hands of the Qin State, and the piece from the Zhao State has fallen into the hands of the Zhongshan Sword Hall. Just as Dun Rui said in front of him, although it fell into the Zhongshan Sword Hall, it is the piece that really determines which piece of mysterious jade.
But it is not the Zhongshan Sword Hall that has the fate of jade.
Since it's not Xuanyu's matter, there are not many things that can make Dunwei feel troublesome. Could it be the errands at the pedestrian station? But he can't get involved in the errands at the pedestrian station.
The loud words fell slowly from his mouth, and Kindness, Gentleness and Beauty also slowly came forward, waiting around, holding up the copper pot, filling the wine cup in front of Zhou Qing, listening attentively, and his expression did not change.
"Confucianism!"
"I came here today to meet Zhenjun Daowu. What I did was Confucianism in Qi State. For hundreds of years, Confucianism has been entrenched here. Especially after the Lu State was destroyed, Confucianism's influence spread throughout Qi State."
"Decades ago, the Confucian Xun Kuang left the Jixia Academy, resigned from the post of Grand Priest Liquor, and founded the Xiaoshengxian Village with people from the Confucian branch. This created the Jixia Academy, but it also made Confucianism truly extraordinary.
.”
"In today's Qi State, the influence of Confucianism is deeply rooted. Qi State's military is weak, so there is nothing to fear. However, Confucian people occupy its heart, which is what Wu Zhenjun said is a conflict in the world."
When it came time to get down to business, he stood up leisurely from behind the desk and walked to the hall. Gongsun Linglong, who was sitting quietly on the other side, also stood up, stood beside him, bowed his hands and bowed, and glanced at Zhou Qing.
Although Qi can be called a big country, its soldiers have not seen what a real battlefield looks like for decades. Although Qi is rich, it lacks the power to protect them.
Although Qi State has a clear administration, the kings and prime ministers who are now in power are not that wise. Therefore, Qi State has nothing to fear. What is worthy of high regard is the Confucianism in Qi State.
Confucianism has been entrenched here. For hundreds of years, the people who have managed this place have a solid body, benevolence, and etiquette throughout the Qi Kingdom. Their influence is huge. It is easy to unify the territory, but it is difficult to unify the hearts of the people.
"The power of Confucianism in Qilu cannot be underestimated."
"I wonder what I can do?"
After all, Zhou Qing understood very well that even in the long history of the original Confucianism, there had been troubles and disasters caused by Confucianism, and among the later enemies of Qin, many advisers came out of Xiaoshengxian Manor and Jixia Academy.
Even so, Zhou Qing still didn't know what he could do, whether it was to use tyrannical force to destroy the Little Saint's Manor, or something else.
"I have two strategies for dealing with Confucianism!"
He paused and bowed again, thought for a moment, looked up at Zhou Qing, and his peripheral vision fell on Shanrou and Shanmei. These two strategies were extraordinary, and ordinary people might leak them if they heard them.
"I have sealed their hearing, sir, just say so."
Facing Dunruo's gaze, Zhou Qing pointed a finger, and two rays of purple light fell on Shanrou and Shanmei, sealing their sense of hearing. Endless silence surrounded them, and everything in the outside world ceased to exist.
Feeling the changes in his body, Shanrou and Shanmei trembled all over, and then a crisp voice rose in their hearts. They looked at Zhou Qing with slightly panicked eyes. After taking a few breaths, they became slightly calmer.
"Two strategies, one is that I have written to the king to gather the Confucian scholars in Qin State, respect their positions and despise their duties, divide the internal factions of Confucianism, and disintegrate Confucianism. In this way, Confucianism will be in chaos and will not be a threat."
"The second is to gather together hundreds of schools that have been suppressed by Confucianism for hundreds of years, join forces, bless the descendants of the Guan Bao clan left behind by the Tian family in Qi, attack Confucianism, and destroy the foundation of Confucianism in Qilu!
"
Using two strategies at the same time, one to recruit security and the other to trap and kill, a two-pronged approach can form a large net covering Qilu Confucianism. If nothing unexpected happens, it will have great effects.
After speaking softly, wait for a response.
"The general trend of heaven is vast and powerful. If you follow it, you will prosper; if you go against it, you will perish!"
"Confucianism disrupts the law with literature, and chivalry violates prohibitions with martial arts. Confucianism has always been a knowledge of the world, and it is enough to bring peace. However, the Qin State has always adhered to the rule of law, which is very different from what Confucianism inherited. Therefore, what qualifications does a mere Confucianist have with the Qin State?
Negotiate terms?"
"The strategy of submitting a letter can be gone, and only the second strategy can be left. Within Qi State, start from the foundation of Confucianism, manage the descendants of the Bao clan, and the other hundreds of families suppressed by Confucianism can use it!"
The foundation of Confucianism has always been those big families and nobles. As long as they can be won over, Confucianism does not need to take action. It has become a rootless water. As for recruiting people, it now looks up to Confucianism.
The reason why Confucianism is deeply rooted is because of hundreds of years of operation. Descendants of big families and nobles entered Confucianism to study. Through this cycle, Confucianism became what it is today.
"Moreover, there are three heads in the Little Sage Manor. One is a descendant of Meng Ke's lineage of Confucianism and has always been the head of the house. The other two are from other Confucian factions competing for the position of head."
"Xun Kuang is sitting in it, and one of the three chiefs can get one, so the other remaining chief can also use his hands and feet."
Following the previous words, Zhou Qing continued to say that Confucianism was not as harmonious as it seemed to the outside world. After Confucius died, many disciples left behind formed their own factions and gathered together to form Confucianism.
External suppression and internal consumption, in this way, Confucianism can be easily weakened.
"What Mr. Wu Zhen said is true!"
"If this is the case, Confucianism in Langya Sanghai will decline!
Hearing this, I paused and muttered for dozens of breaths. It was quite feasible. I couldn't help but feel happy about it, and I bowed my hand in another salute. The Confucianism in Qi State was solved, and a lot of subsequent troubles were avoided.
"I will stay in Qi for the next time. If you have any urgent or difficult problems, you can come and find me."
Today, Dunwei came to heaven and earth. The person who did it already knew it. He gathered the remaining people from hundreds of families, integrated them into one place, started from another area of Qi State, and took the lead in breaking into it.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Wu Zhen!"
Suddenly, joy flashed on his weak face again.
****
Not long after, Dunruo and Gongsun Linglong left. In the hall of Nuo Da, only Zhou Qing, Shanrou and Shanmei were left. With a wave of their hands, the two people's sealed hearing power was removed and they returned to nature.
.
"Are you curious about what I just said to Dunruo?"
Lying gently on the soft couch above, a faint purple light flickered all over his body. He reached out to take the wine bottle from Shanrou's hand, took a sip slowly, and looked at the other person with deep meaning.
"My two sisters are of humble status. How dare they listen to your secrets? I just didn't expect that you are the Taoist Master of Qin who has been rumored for a long time in Qi in recent years."
"It is a blessing for us to have the honor to serve you, sir."
The person who responded was still Shanrou, with lowered eyebrows, slightly swaying her head, her white hands intertwined in front of her body, her hair moving, the pleasant sound spreading, vaguely mixed with surprise.
Shanmei on one side also remained silent, standing quietly on one side and listening to her sister's words.
"Yeah?"
"Speaking of which, although I am the Daowu Zhenjun of the Qin State, there is one thing that I have always regretted. During the Xinzheng incident a few years ago, the Qi State Sword Master Cao Qiudao's soldiers were trapped in Guigu Gaini and threatened me."
"I have never forgotten this matter. However, I came to Qi State this time just to find Cao Qiudao. As a person from Qi State, do you know the specific information about this person?"
He waved to Shanmei on one side, and the person slowly came closer, with a faint fragrance floating around, and his eyes narrowed slightly. Then, a pair of slightly cool palms fell on his shoulder blades, and he pressed softly with moderate force.
The words in his mouth flowed out without stopping. As the words fell, the strength of the small hands on both sides of the shoulders seemed to change slightly and became much stronger. However, after a breath, it returned to its original state.
"White clothes, black hair, extraordinary swordsmanship!"
"Shanrou doesn't know much. I only know that Cao Qiudao is the master of King Qi, the palace protector, and the swordsman of the Xia Dynasty. The rest is not clear. Do you want to kill Cao Qiudao?"
Shanrou's words were casual, and she walked forward slowly. Her soft hands fell on Zhou Qing's legs, and she began to hold them rhythmically. Following the words in her mouth, she fell into silence.
However, Zhou Qing did not give any response.
Shanmei, who was close at hand, saw this and felt Zhou Qing's breathing. The movements of her hands did not stop and she continued to press softly. Shanrou on the other side also remained silent and focused on the movements of her hands.
After a hundred breaths, the two of them were still like this.
The same is true after half a stick of incense.
After a stick of incense, at some point, the sharp edges of Shanrou and Shanmei flashed. They clasped their hands together and transformed into sword palms. The colorful mysterious light shot out. Without any hesitation, they suddenly slashed towards Zhou Qing.
