"I have my father, what should I do with Confucius?" Zhiyao was thinking at that moment.
Of course, if Confucius is willing to come to Zhishi, it is actually a good thing. What needs to be watched out for is not to let him emphasize "propriety" again and again.
The situation in the world has changed, and it has switched to the mode of "great struggle". Pursuing Zhou Li is restraining oneself, which is equivalent to tying one's hands and fighting with others, and will definitely be beaten all over.
Confucius emphasized "rituals" in the Lu State in order to suppress the Three Huans. In the Song Dynasty, "rituals" could also be used as weapons. In other countries, the role of "rituals" was almost a burden.
In fact, that is the case. Everyone seeks progress, so how can they be willing to listen to Confucius and pursue restoration? That is no longer standing still, it is going backwards!
Zhiyao said: "I will send the family officials to invite them. It is a good thing that Master Kong is willing to come!"
The pros and cons of protecting Confucius are hard to say.
Fortunately, Confucius had a lot of knowledge and was also a very good teacher.
The disadvantage lies in the pursuit of retro style, and if you are not careful, you may be cursed by your "disciples and descendants" for more than two thousand years.
Zigong was overjoyed and thought: "It would be great if Gongsun was willing to invite him personally."
Is it just right? Zigong also knew that he was overthinking. Not to mention that Confucius was expelled by the kings and ministers of Lu State as a loser, and the major events taking place in Jin State would not allow Zhiyao to go to Wei State.
Even if it was just to show Zigong, Zhiyao would definitely show respect to Confucius by sending one of his personal retainers, Fu Liao.
"In the future, it will be inconvenient for me to live in 'Father Huang' for a long time, and it will be difficult for me to follow Master Kong in person. I wonder if Master Kong is willing to go to 'Xintian'." Zhiyao asked.
For Zhiyao, it was impossible for him to formally worship Confucius as his teacher.
I was destined to establish a sect, and at most I could only imitate Confucius and ask Lao Tzu. There were academic exchanges, but no master-disciple status.
Zigong didn't want to violate his conscience, so he said awkwardly and ashamedly: "My master... I'm afraid he doesn't want to go to 'Xintian'."
In fact, it is similar to what I think, that is, people all over the world feel that the Jin people are too barbaric. It is not the kind of ignorant barbarism. It means that they attach too much importance to force and wantonly bully other countries based on the country's strength.
Zhiyao shook his head, there was no need to speak out what was in his heart.
Academics all have their own mysophobia, and generally reject force, especially the kind of tyrannical force that is beyond their control. Instead, if they have strong force in their own hands, they should enjoy preaching with books and swords.
Feeling of pleasure.
Zigong reported some other things, and seeing that Zhiyao had no other instructions, he left.
Now, with the monarch changing his words again, the bad reputation of the Zhao family has not been reversed, but the Zhao family's army has surrounded "Handan".
As allies of Handan Zhao, the Fan family and the Zhonghang family suddenly found themselves defined as rebellious. After cursing at the monarch from afar, they once again issued recruitment orders to each fiefdom.
Because a war was destined to break out, and then the situation changed again and again due to the monarch's series of cunning maneuvers, causing the entire Jin Kingdom to be in chaos.
"The Lord refuses to accept your order, so the power of collecting taxes from the country belongs to the Central Military Assistant!" Zhixuwu really felt that Zhizhuang had made a bad move.
He came to "Father Huang" because he had something to do, and he definitely wanted to see Zhiyao.
To be honest, Zhiyao also felt that Zhizong really made a wrong move.
The dignified minister actually gave up the authority to summon and command the army. Can he take back the authority belonging to the "marshal" in the future?
Once the power of the "marshal" fell into the hands of Zhao Yang, the rights of Zhizong, the "Yuanrong", would be incomplete.
Since the establishment of the system of three armies and six ministers, there has never been an example of a "Yuanrong" lacking authority in the Jin State.
If Zhizong is really unable to regain the power of "marshal", not only will he become a joke in the history books, but Zhizhi will also become the laughing stock of all nobles.
However, Zhiyao could not make any comments, so she changed the subject and asked: "Still a confrontation and no fighting?"
This Zhixuwu is considered to be a relatively powerful member of the Zhi family. He used to stay in "Xintian" to carry out some of Zhixu's orders, but now he seems to have become a message-delivery role.
It has been almost two months since several families in the imperial family were at war with each other. After the Zhao family formally attacked the city of "Handan", the Fan family and the Zhonghang family were still stationary and did not move. The Wei family and the Han family were threatened by the security of their fiefdoms.
Naturally, he didn't dare to move lightly.
"When I came, the central commander was already at Handan, the superior commander (Han Buxin) was at Gao, and the subordinate general (Wei Chi) was at Lu." Zhi Xuwu said.
That is to say, they have already set up their battle formations, and there may be a formal battle at any time.
Zhiyao asked again: "Does the Lord have any instructions?"
Speaking of this, Zhixu Wu felt a deep sense of powerlessness come over him. He shook his head dejectedly and said, "The Lord has not made a decision yet."
Of course Zhiyao could see Zhixuwu's disappointment in Zhishuo, but she still couldn't verbally express her actions.
There was silence for a short while.
"The Zhao family will be the first to suffer the disaster. The Lord ordered us to resign. In order to avoid being misunderstood by others, we must not act lightly." Zhiyao helped Zhisong come up with a reason.
Of course Zhixuwu knew that, but he still felt disappointed. When he thought about Zhishen's poor character and ability, he felt even more desperate. Looking at Zhiyao in front of him, he felt a glimmer of hope.
How can a big family act weak? Once it is characterized as weak, everyone outside will want to bully it, and it will be difficult to create cohesion internally.
Another point is that once the Jin State is characterized as weak, how long a family can survive is a question. If something goes wrong, there will be no one to help, and it will be great if they don't get hurt.
Zhixuwu looked at Zhiyao hopefully and said, "Yao, the rise and fall of my family..." Halfway through, he thought about it and still didn't say anything.
Now the head of the Lao Zhi family is Zhishuang, and after Zhishuo there is Zhishen. If nothing else, it will be thirty or forty years before Zhiyao takes power one day.
However, without spoiling any spoilers, Jishen did not live long...
Zhi Xuwu stayed at "Huang Father" for half a month, and chatted with Zhi Yao when he had time. At the same time, he also witnessed the results Zhi Yao had achieved in three or four years, and became more and more convinced that he could lead the Zhi family's renaissance.
It would be Zhiyao, and she felt extremely sentimental in her heart.
Zhixuwu is already forty years old this year, and I really don’t know if I can see the day when Zhixu will prosper again.
"Yao invited Dan Zi to my home, it's a great benefit!" Zhi Xuwu saw a lot of books and was so excited that he breathed heavily.
If those classics were not written down by Lao Tzu, many of them only existed in the royal family of the Chu Kingdom, and many more were destroyed by war.
"If the "Classic" can be restored to perfection in my family, people in the world will benefit from my family for generations to come!" The "Classic" Zhixu Wu mentioned is the "Book of Songs".
Because of the Princely Dynasty Rebellion in the Zhou royal family, only the State of Lu currently has a relatively complete "Book of Songs". The "Book of Songs" in the State of Lu will suffer when Confucius returns to work as a "librarian", which will cause future generations to
It is difficult to see the complete "Book of Songs" in its entirety.
Zhiyao thought about it: "Confucius has agreed to come to Zhishi as a guest, so the Book of Songs written by Li Ermo must not be harmed."
