"Ying Zheng wants Little Saint Xianzhuang to help?"
"Impossible. Ying Zheng loves the teachings of the Legalists, so how can he tolerate the teachings of those scholars?"
Even the man who was cursing earlier had his expression blank, looked at each other, and thought carefully, it seems that King Qin Yingzheng sent a special person to Songhai at this time, and he only had this goal.
It is certainly impossible to offend Confucianism.
And the Confucians would not want to offend Qin easily. They knew Confucianism too well.
"But... Han Fei, a Korean prince who was born in Confucianism, wrote many famous articles in "Han Feizi". Li Si, who was born in Confucianism, has also become the false prime minister of the Qin court, and he is a very popular minister."
"A few years ago, many Confucian disciples entered the Qin court as officials."
There is a reason why Confucianism has been prevalent for hundreds of years and has always been a prominent school. It is obviously impossible to simply deny Confucianism, but Yingzheng wants Confucianism to help him, they can almost conclude.
But why did Confucianism help Qin?
The foundation of Confucianism has always been in Qilu, not the Qin State in the western border. If Confucianism is really colluding with the Qin State, then the Shandong countries will definitely be dissatisfied.
At that time, it will not be a good thing for Confucians.
"The real Confucian scholars all studied in Jixia Academy and learned from hundreds of schools of thought."
"Otherwise, Confucianism will not be able to defeat hundreds of schools. Since Yingzheng wants to win over Confucianism, he must pay a sufficient price. How about your peasant disciples over at Songhai?"
Not all Confucians are those who study hard. The real Confucian elites must be both civilized and military. Otherwise, they would not be able to cultivate Xia celebrities like Han Fei and Li Si.
The rest of the people looked at each other, and it seemed that their next actions would be much more troublesome. Not only would they have to face the envoys from Qin who were coming, but they would also have to deal with Songhai's Confucianists.
I just don’t know that they can do some damage.
"There are many farm disciples over there in Songhai."
"How about we give the Qin envoys to..."
The farmer disciple nodded. The land of Songhai is close to Chu State, and Chu State falls within the scope of farmers. There are many farmer disciples in Songhai, and they can quickly know the information.
Since there is a possibility of causing obstacles, then kill them. He spoke in a low voice and made a downward motion with one hand.
"Here...Confucianism?"
Killing a person is nothing, but if those Qin envoys entered the border of Qilu, it would be considered a Confucian view. What if the Confucians took action!
"Do it first and then talk about it, no matter what Confucianism is about it."
The man with a slightly grumpy temper was a little disdainful, saying that Confucianism was strong. However, in the past few years of staying in Qilu, he had not seen any strong points in Confucianism. It could not be said that it was just a boast of hundreds of schools of thought.
We are just a group of scholars, what should we fear?
"..., this is the only way to go."
Everyone looked at each other again. Killing one Qin envoy is killing, and killing two is killing. Since they have decided to take action, they will rob and kill all Qin envoys on their way to Qi.
Leave them without any follow-up action.

"Master, there is a document from Xianyang!"
The land of Songhai!
Compared with Linzi of Qi State, it is closer to the sea. The warm wind blows, and the entire Songhai land is boundless green. On the rolling mountains, the withered plants in autumn and winter are even more green.
Just after the beginning of spring, the entire city of Songhai came to life again, with merchants gathering and traveling here. It was close to the border between Qi and Chu, and was home to the Confucian headquarters, which was extremely stable.
It is also the safest place for businessmen coming and going to stay. Tens of miles outside the city of Songhai, on the secluded mountain and beside the sea, is the location of the Little Saint Xianzhuang. Many Confucian places scattered in the Xia land are visited here.
, study inside and think of making progress.
After being in charge of the Confucian family for several years, Fu Nian has become much more majestic. On weekdays, he sits quietly in the Hall of Renli and handles the documents of Confucian disciples from all over the country. Later, he reads the Confucian classics and understands the way of the sage king.
Watching a young disciple in Confucian robes approach holding a secret letter, he stopped writing and nodded slightly.
"Go down."
With a wave of his hand, he took the secret letter in the disciple's hand. He looked at the sealed clay and special markings on the secret letter, smiled softly, put down the pen in his hand, and then looked at the disciple while waving his hand.
"Yes, Master."
The disciple bowed his hands and retreated slowly.
After a few breaths, he felt the disciple go away, and his expression returned to solemnity. He looked at the secret letter in his hand, opened it, and looked at the white paper and black words inside. There were not many words on the document, but there was a lot of content.
After a long time, Fu Nian slowly put down the document in his hand. The information on the document was rolling over in his mind. His eyebrows were moved by it, and his eyes were filled with dark light. He was thinking hard about something.
"Enter Qin!"
He murmured in his mouth that the document was sent by Confucian disciples in Xianyang. There were two things in it. One was... that Gai Nie of the Qin State who was stationed in the land of Qilu was besieged and killed by hundreds of warriors, and his whereabouts are unknown.
I hope Confucianism can help find it.
Secondly, King Yingzheng of Qin has written a royal letter in his own hand, ordering his envoys to go to Xiaoshengxian Manor in person. Counting the time, it should be coming soon, and wants to summon him to the Xianyang Palace of Qin State to teach the princes and princesses.
, teach them civil and military affairs.
The rest is nothing.
Although the content of the document is not much, its profound meaning is profound. As the head of the Confucian school, he can naturally think of it.
What happened to Guigu's disciple Gai Nie was really beyond Confucian's expectations. Although they were aware of it, it was only an afterthought. They still don't know the whereabouts of Gai Nie.
But one thing is certain, Genie will not die so easily.
However, King Qin Yingzheng wanted to go to Xianyang Palace to teach the princes and princesses in the palace. On the surface, it was a trivial matter, but in fact, for Confucianists, it was far from that.
On this occasion, the Qin State attacked Zhao, and what they were worried about was that the combined power of the Shandong states might not be afraid, but there would be some trouble after all. If he entered the Qin Dynasty, it would undoubtedly indicate that the power of Confucianism in Qilu was somewhat tilted.
How to tilt?
Naturally, it was to help Qin stabilize the situation in Qilu, otherwise why would King Qin Yingzheng summon him?
Rule...on the whole, it is a great opportunity for Confucianism and itself. According to the document, this strategy was proposed by Wuzhen Hou Xuan Qingzi.
In this way, his own life will not be in danger, and he will be able to teach the princes and princesses and spread the Confucian civil and military principles. Ying Zheng always likes Legalism, and he is also proficient in Legalism.
I have read "Han Feizi" many times, and I think it was enough to satisfy the King of Qin.
The most important thing is that this time when you enter the Qin Dynasty, you can get to know the descendants of Ying Zheng, get to know the princes and princesses, and let the influence of Confucianism enter the Qin court. Even if the principles are not accepted, it will not matter.
The next King of Qin will definitely be the heir of King Qin Yingzheng, that is, selected from those princes. At that time, it will be an opportunity for Confucianism. What I have to do is to make Confucian principles like the princes.
Although it is difficult... I thought to myself that I can do it.
Of course... the land of Qilu cannot be too obvious in helping the Qin State, otherwise, it will easily make the Shandong countries evil. This matter... I should discuss this matter in detail with my uncle.
When I enter Qin, I am naturally happy when looking at the overall situation.
After leaving, it will be up to my uncle to control the overall situation.
He got up from behind the desk and walked around the Renli Hall. After a while, he tidied up his clothes and went to a remote corner of the Xiaoshengxian Manor in a deep bamboo forest.
After a stick of incense.
"You are now the head of Confucianism. Since you have decided on this matter, you can do it yourself."
In a corner of the bamboo grove, there is a beautiful thatched cottage, and the sun rises across the sky, but it is cool here, and the breeze penetrates the side, which does not damage its hidden beauty. In the pavilion, there are many tables, and there are boys cooking tea beside it, which is very elegant.
Gently stroking the long beard under his chin with one hand, Xun Kuang nodded slightly. He already understood all the circumstances. Entering Qin Xianyang Palace to teach the descendants of Ying Zheng was an opportunity for Confucianism, so he should seize it.
Confucianism can now do what needs to be paid.
"Uncle Master, in recent years, people from hundreds of families have been quite active in the land of Qilu. Many rangers are killing people. The Mohist family has been repeatedly attacked by the Qin State. Now its power is weakening. It is rumored that Lu Zhenlang has gone to the barbarian country west of the river.
.”
"Really forgetting the glory of the Xia Dynasty, the peasants were active in the Chu State. The two kings in the country were fighting, and the peasants were also involved. It was very obvious in Sanghai."
"Uncle Master, what's the explanation?"
Fu Nian bowed his hands in a salute with a solemn expression. Since he took charge of the Confucian School, he has a clearer understanding of the actions of the hundreds of schools. Those people do not want to solve the problem from the king, but always place their hope on killing one or two people.
It's really uncivilized.
What's more serious is that the knights are running rampant in the land of Qilu. If the Confucianists don't have the means to stop them, it will probably make the people of the hundreds of schools think that the Confucians are weak, but... if they take action, it will bring evil to the hundreds of schools, which is not what the Confucians want to see.
arrive.
If you want to compromise, Baijia will go further, beyond what you see.
Wanting to be tough, hundreds of schools are alienated. In the troubled times in the Xia Dynasty, Confucianism can't stand alone. Although Confucianism is strong, it is not enough to fight against the entire hundred schools of thought.
"Ha ha."
"Fu Nian, this question... you already have the answer in your mind, don't you?"
"The way you have cultivated to become an inner sage and an outer king takes heaven as its sect, virtue as its basis, Tao as its door, and signs of change. You are called a saint. You use benevolence as grace, righteousness as principle, etiquette as conduct, and joy as the goal.
Being harmonious and benevolent is called a gentleman."
Xun Kuang smiled brightly. Ever since he realized the profound entrance and set foot in the wonderful realm, he had gained a unique understanding of the way of hundreds of schools of thought and the way of heaven and earth. He faced Fu Nian's inquiring gaze and spoke slowly.
"Uncle Master!"
When Fu Nian heard this, he felt something spiritually, gained something, and understood something. Then he slowly stood up and asked the question again.
"This Tao is quite harmonious and combines the mysteries of hundreds of schools of thought. Tianzong Zhuangzhou is worthy of being an expert."
"Every Xia Sheji, if they want to make the world submissive, they must not rely on force, but they cannot do without force. If they want to use benevolence and etiquette, they cannot do without the ways of Legalism, Taoism, Yin and Yang... hundreds of schools of thought.
"
"In the future, Confucianism wants to use kings to teach the way. Fu Nian, you should give it a try. Nearly a hundred years ago, the status of Confucianism in Qilu was not achieved by simply Jixia Academy overcoming hundreds of schools of thought.
