According to historical records, Han Fei, the ninth son of South Korea, died of illness in the Qin prison.
This is the general perception of Han Fei, a relatively well-known Korean prince, among people all over the world.
Of course, the proportion of people who know the name Han Fei in the world is not high, and ordinary people will not pay attention to a son of a high official, even if his teacher is a great Confucian.
So to be precise, among this small group of people who know Han Fei, most of them know Han Fei based on the above sentence.
The very few remaining people, probably only a hundred or so at most, knew clearly that Han Fei was still alive.
Living freely...after the First Emperor Ying Zheng personally pronounced him dead.
Although out of taboo, Han Fei can no longer be active in the public eye - in fact, he cannot enter the court as an official and appear openly in Ying Zheng's sight.
This impact on him was almost non-existent, because he had no interest in serving as an official during the First Emperor's reign. And
Anyway, it doesn’t prevent him from continuing to act as the main high-level executive of Liusha.
Naturally, the Three Confucian Masters of Qi and Lu, as well as Han Fei's teacher Xun Kuang, knew this information.
However, out of guilt for his teacher - he repeatedly refused Xun Kuang's help and insisted on going his own way - and because he did not want to cause unnecessary trouble to Confucianism, Han Fei has not set foot in the Songhai area in these years.
The ending of Han Fei not dying has indeed eased the hatred between him and Li Si to a certain extent, but...some things are just done when they are done.
In any case, there is no doubt that Li Si was the one who pushed Han Fei to a dead end.
Attempted homicide and intentional injury are different after all.
In fact, Han Fei himself doesn't care much about it.
Although Li Si's approach was obviously over the line in his opinion, he was not willing to break up with his junior brother and argue to the end. After all... didn't he fail?
However, as a client, he can be generous and careless, but others may not be as generous as him.
Let alone others, as far as Shan Guxun is concerned, Li Si is just a tool man who is alive but dead. After Ying Zheng dies and Han Fei can stand on the political stage again, he can also
Ended his political life and physical life.
For Fu Nian, although Li Si disgusted him, due to his status as Prime Minister, a certain degree of hypocrisy and compromise were inevitable.
But for a certain scholar who was famous for his venomous words, there were no taboos.
Xun Kuang had no intention of dissociating himself from his second disciple just because Han Fei was not dead, and he had no intention of showing any mercy to Li Si.
In the entire Confucian school, only this one is qualified to be so arrogant. And
Not only is he a contemporary great Confucian whose fame rivals the Five Sages of Confucianism, but he has also served as a priest in Jixia Academy for three terms. He has studied under his disciples and countless capable people from hundreds of schools (this kind of people are not considered formal disciples), and has many old officials.
It’s not an exaggeration to describe it.
The most important thing is that he is Li Si's teacher.
No matter how Li Si tried to downplay his identity as a disciple of Confucianism over the years, he emphasized that he was a legalist...
His roots!
Always in Confucianism.
He is a disciple of the great scholar Xun Kuang Zheng'er's Eight Classics, which is equivalent to half a son.
Of course, the opposite is also true, Xun Kuang is half of his biological father. And
In anyone's opinion, no matter what attitude Xun Kuang had towards him, he had to accept it respectfully, even if he was now the Prime Minister of the Empire.
Because his current status and power all come from the teacher Xunzi.
Pre-Qin is not the later generation. Even if the world already had paper during the Qin Dynasty, the stock of books was still pitifully small, so knowledge was almost completely in the hands of individuals - that is why it is extremely precious, and therefore the grace of teaching can be compared with the grace of childbirth. Without Xun Kuang, it would be difficult for Li Si to achieve his current status.
No matter how talented he is, he cannot know it from birth. He should be illiterate or illiterate.
This is master and apprentice.
Even if Xunzi openly announced today that he no longer recognized Li Si as his student, Li Si couldn't take it seriously and said even a few words that meant to sever the relationship between master and disciple. And
These days it is OK to cut off one's robe and sever ties, but to sever the relationship between father and son/master and apprentice... No, there is no such thing.
The elders of both parties in the relationship can make this argument, but it is basically a unilateral severance. One party can deny it, but the other party cannot.
Of course, if you have the ability and can learn from Nezha to cut the flesh of the mother and bone the father, then it will probably be fine.
Naturally, Li Daxiangguo didn't have this ability, so when faced with the heart-breaking words uttered by the little book boy, he not only did not dare to get angry, but even his face did not dare to get worse - given the current attitude of Confucianism towards him, today he dared
If he changes his face even slightly, the matter will spread completely tomorrow, saying that Li Si is showing off to his teacher.
Although with his current position of power, his reputation will not decline because of such a trivial matter, and it will be enough to put him off for a while.
Li Si always pursues stability and will not just follow the truth.
Gongsun Linglong is really excited now. She doesn't care whether she is a great scholar or not. Anyway, she has nothing to do with the heir of her famous family. It is a good time to lick the Prime Minister: And
"Young!"
A strange and strange scream sounded. Gongsun Linglong held up the mask and rolled her eyes, twisted her body, pointed at the wooden house and shouted, "This Xun Qing has such great majesty, how dare you not give him the face of the Prime Minister!?" When Li Si heard this, he was indeed a little happy. After all, he worked hard to get to where he is today, and he didn't just use Gongsun Linglong's mouth to make a few noises just to look at other people's faces... It's more comfortable.
Of course, he did not dare to let Gongsun Linglong say more, otherwise the Confucians could still blame him.
Li Si raised his hand to signal Gongsun Linglong to stop talking. Li Si smiled at the corner of his mouth and didn't seem to be annoyed at all by being rejected. He calmly said to the book boy:
"I'm sorry."
The latter apology was for Gongsun Linglong's inappropriate words.
The scholar nodded expressionlessly and returned to the Bamboo Garden without saying a word.
Fu Nian then stepped forward, clasped his hands and saluted, and said with an apologetic tone, "Master Li, please forgive me, Master Xun's character has always been..."
Fu Nian did not say the next words.
As the head of Confucianism, Mr. Xiang Guo lost face because he was rejected here, so he must come out to express his feelings.
But that's enough. No matter how much he didn't want to say, he shouldn't say it either - Xunzi was his uncle, and he was a taboo among the venerables, so he couldn't speak ill of others directly.
Li Si spoke with a smile and didn't seem to mind. Instead, he responded with emotion, "It seems that the teacher's temper has not changed at all, that's fine!"
"I don't know, how is the teacher's health lately?" And
"This..." Fu Nian pondered for a while and then replied, "Uncle Xun has been immersed in books and books on weekdays and never leaves home. Even my junior brothers and I have rarely seen him for a long time."
"Oh, is that so..." Li Si raised his head and looked around the bamboo forest around the courtyard, and said tentatively, "I remember that the teacher always liked gardening. This bamboo forest has an elegant appearance. It seems that it has been carefully pruned every day, right?"
"Oh, this bamboo forest..." Fu Nian responded in a deep voice, "Uncle Xun is already old, and the gardening in the forest has long been left to the students to take care of."
"The skills are so poor that they make the Prime Minister laugh."
"Mr. Fu Nian is being humble." Li Si looked back slightly and glanced sideways at Fu Nian.
Today he wanted to see Xun Kuang, of course not to give warmth to the teacher who had been away for many years.
It's not as if he didn't know that even if Xunzi was willing to see him, he wouldn't look good and might even get beaten. And
But for Li Si, if he wanted to influence Confucianism, Xunzi, who was his teacher by name, was the first difficulty he had to face.
With Xun Guang around, he basically cannot personally lead any actions against Confucianism, and must first shift the main responsibility to others.
This is easy to say, but very troublesome to do.
There are many people with lower status than Li Si who can control things and don't care about their reputation, but none of them are qualified to deal with Confucianism.
In other words, it is basically impossible for him to hide behind the scenes and manipulate puppets to do this.
The other step is to find someone whose status is not inferior to him, or even above him, to take the lead, and he can help from the side to reduce his own sense of presence in this matter.
This kind of circumstantial approach has room for implementation. There are not many candidates, but there are a few, but it is more troublesome.
The most important thing is that Ying Zheng may not give him such a choice - he will not care whether Xunzi is Li Si's teacher.
In comparison, Li Si thinks that the most reliable thing is that Xunzi can understand things better and turn up his hair in time, so that his troubles will disappear.
Speaking of which, Xunzi is over ninety years old this year (I calculated based on historical facts, Xun Kuang was born in 313 BC), which is a rare longevity. In theory, he may die at any time.
Especially when he is a scholar of the pure literary school - just the literary school according to Li Si.
So his purpose today is to confirm Xunzi's physical condition, and meeting him directly is naturally the best way.
It's a pity that it failed.
I wanted to ask Fu Nian sideways, but unfortunately he seemed to be aware of it and there was no gain.
But it doesn’t matter, there are many ways to test, so there is no need to rush.
Li Si suppressed his thoughts, turned around and faced everyone, showing a false smile, "Since Master Xun is not able to see guests today, let's not disturb his peace and quiet."
………………
Above the mirage, in a quiet room.
Concubine Yan carefully put her daughter on the bed and covered her with a quilt.
According to the design, after the mirage is completed, it will be enough to support thousands of people living on it - a normal free and relaxed life. If we desperately cram people in, tens of thousands of people will not be a problem.
It can be seen from this that there are countless rooms up here. And
However, the ship has not yet been officially launched, and most of the rooms have not been decorated, which is equivalent to an empty house.
So Yan Fei chose a house where the disciples of the Yin Yang family lived.
But it doesn't matter, she's not worried about being discovered.
First of all, she is currently the most powerful person on this ship. Even if the two guardians of Moon God and Star Soul are present and join forces to deal with her, they can easily escape.
Secondly, the probability of her being discovered is extremely slim.
The five realms of Yin-Yang art - alchemy, illusion art, mind control spell, astrological law, and soul-changing method. Most of them are directly related to illusion, so every Yin-Yang art master is also an illusion master.
Since Yan Fei has already entered the fifth level of soul-changing practice, at most only a few people on the ship can get rid of her illusion, while others can only see the false picture weaved by her. And
In other words, even if she swaggers around in this conspicuous long dress, no one can really 'see' her... She only needs to avoid a few people.
In fact, the original resident of this house was in the house when she came. Of course, he has left now. Under Yan Fei's "earnest guidance", he was very helpful and took the initiative to give up his house and ran to
I stayed in other empty houses.
The only problem is that she may not know that she has changed houses.
Of course, Concubine Yan doesn't care about this, she is just looking for a place to stay.
This was a decision she made on a whim. She didn't originally plan to hide in the mirage...or should I say she didn't expect to do so.
Until she took her daughter to the Fuso Sacred Tree and witnessed this miraculous giant ship with her own eyes.
She felt that Chitaki would like this huge ship that was both terrifying and indelibly dreamy, so she made this decision to avoid her child's father who should have arrived at Songhai at this time——
Although she did not collect relevant information, she could roughly guess the opponent's current location with Gu Xun's speed.
Yan Fei has no intention of joining him now.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Another point is that the mirage should hide many secrets that interest her.
Maybe it's useful to her, maybe it's not useful, it doesn't matter, at least you can find something to do for yourself.
She took her daughter all the way to Songhai, but she couldn't just look at a tree...even if the tree was not that big.
………………
Songhai City, Xiaoshengxian Village, Back Mountain Bamboo Forest Wooden House.
The noise caused by Li Si and others outside gradually subsided, and it can be seen that everyone must have left. And
Xunzi sat in front of the table, with a small stove beside his hand, and the boiling kettle made a whirring sound.
Xunzi picked up the teapot through a rag - although he didn't need to use an external object to insulate it and he wouldn't get burned, but there was always a sense of ceremony - and added tea to himself and the guests opposite.
Gu Xun picked up the tea cup, blew it twice, took a sip, and let out a satisfied groan:
"Huh... Senior still knows the tea ceremony. The same tea you made is much better than when I came here."
"Haha..." Xunzi stroked his beard and smiled, "For so many years, the imperial master hasn't tried to study the tea ceremony?"
"No." Gu Xun shook his head neatly, and then explained, "Maybe he is lazy."
"It's like food. I love it very much, but I have never been willing to think about making it myself. I only want to eat it." And
"Drinking tea... is almost the same."
Xunzi nodded slightly and did not hold a negative attitude towards Gu Xun's lazy behavior.
"Well, it's okay, it's understandable."
"Confucianism has always emphasized the importance of never getting tired of fine food and never getting tired of fine food. I am also a glutton myself, but Xiaoshengxianzhuang has not even had its own kitchen for so many years."
Although it is said that this is because Confucianism emphasizes that a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen, see his life and cannot bear to see his death, and hear his voice and cannot bear to eat his flesh, but in the end it is just an excuse.
Mencius said this to express his thoughts, but he did not really tell Confucian disciples to stop cooking.
The fact is that Xiaoshengxian Village is neither willing to let its disciples cook nor keep a cook in the village, so it stipulates this way.
The students of Xiaoshengxian Village basically take care of themselves in daily life. There are no servants in the village. Naturally, there is no cook responsible for cooking, and they are not willing to insert a cook among the students.
But unlike making the bed, washing clothes, etc., which can be handled by oneself, if students are allowed to cook by themselves, at least dozens of kitchens must be built to accommodate them, otherwise they may not have to wait in line to cook a meal until the next day. Although Zhuangzi is a large place, it cannot be wasted like this...
So I can only stay away from the kitchen.
It is not an exaggeration to regard it as an act of laziness.
