Chapter 241: Goose Lake's Curtain Call I Owe Brother Luohua
Chapter 241: The End of the Goose Lake Club (Thanks to Brother Luohua for the extra update)
Originally, the Confucian Mansion was extremely confident in its grand sacrificial wine. Originally, the Emperor's Bell was also prepared for the people of the Confucian Mansion. Even though Jiang Yan was ranked number one in the Eight Mansion, he could only return in vain.
But the originally calm Dajijiu suddenly stood up and looked in the direction of the library with blazing eyes.
"Grand Festival Wine, what's going on?"
"The restriction...is broken..."
The face of the Grand Ceremony Wine was filled with disbelief. The Emperor's bell was planted with a restriction that even the Qianyuan Mirror could not break. Jiang Yan was only in the Xuanling realm, how could he break it?
When the people from the Confucian Mansion noticed the movement and came to the Library Pavilion, Wei Changli had already arrived ahead of them and protected Jiang Yan.
He knew very well that when the people of the Confucian Palace used the Emperor's Bell as the reward for being the first in the Eight Palaces, they said that this was the Emperor's Bell of the Confucian Palace. Faced with the temptation of the spiritual weapon, the people of the Eight Palaces could only admit this.
The reality is that we have a very tacit understanding and will not delve into it further.
In fact, it is just a passing scene. Firstly, they are sure that Yan Youqin will be the final winner. Secondly, even if Yan Youqin fails, no one can conquer the Emperor's Bell, and the Emperor's Bell will still stay in Xihe. In this way,
Then the origin of the Emperor's Bell can be cleared up.
Each of these Confucian scholars had an average of one hundred thousand thoughts, but they never expected that they would fall into Jiang Qian's hands.
Jiang Yan was the biggest variable among them. Not only did he become the number one in the Eight Prefectures, he also broke the restrictions jointly set by those old Confucian scholars.
When Yan Jianyuan saw the bell in Jiang Yan's hand, his mood fell to the bottom.
"Thank you to Ji Li for me. The Ehu meeting is over and we have got what we need. We are going to return to Qingdu now."
The Empress Bell is the last item of the Ehu Club. Now that it has been obtained, it means the end of the Ehu Club.
Whether in terms of reputation or reality, Wen Mansion has gotten a big deal this time. If we don't leave quickly, we don't know what else will happen.
The Emperor's Bell, the Wen Mansion has another spiritual weapon, Wei Changli was very happy thinking about it.
"etc…"
Seeing Wei Changli preparing to leave, Yan Jianyuan shouted unwillingly.
"Is there anything else? You still can't afford to lose."
It is a fact that the Confucian Mansion lost to the Wen Mansion, and it is also a fact that Jiang Yan conquered the Emperor Ling. Yan Jianyuan could not refute it at all, and in the end he could only watch the people from the Wen Mansion leave.
Li Wenling and Yan Youqin were in the peach forest, using a secret technique to spy on what was happening in the outside world.
Those old Confucian scholars who often educate people by hiding their emotions and anger are now jumping on their feet and running rampant, saying all kinds of swear words in their mouths.
"These people are the highest-ranking people in Xihe, right? Confucian scholars cultivate their minds, their speech, and their virtues. Look at this group of people again.
They are motivated by foreign objects and covet spiritual artifacts, which is not cultivating the mind; they also dig people's graves, and secretly stumbling upon others for things they have agreed upon, which is not cultivating morality; when all their plans fail, and
If you start to feel resentful and say bad words, this is not practicing speaking." Li Wenling said.
"So Mr. Li, do you have anything to teach me?" Yan Youqin asked.
"Master said that my thoughts would destroy the foundation of Confucianism, so I was not allowed to teach and preach, so we are just discussing it this time.
These old Confucian scholars have been in the Confucian government all their lives, and they have memorized thousands of instructions by heart. Their ability to declare a country is rare, but do you think any of them actually practices it?
Of course, the original intention of Confucianism's teachings is good, but it is the practitioners who are wrong, because they can always find high-sounding reasons to excuse themselves."
"After all, those who practice Qianxunzhang are all human beings. Human beings have seven emotions and six desires. If they have emotions and desires, they will have behaviors that match them," said Yan You Qin.
"Today's Confucianism relies on Qianxunzhang to restrain behavior and pursue the principles of heaven without letting one's heart be in harmony with the sages.
However, a righteous heart is the law of heaven. Confucian students should not seek the law of heaven from external things through thousands of instructions. What Confucian students should cultivate is conscience.
Conscience is possessed by everyone and is self-sufficient for each individual. It is an internal force that does not rely on external forces. It is to extend conscience to things and extend it to one's own behavior. This is conscience.
Confucian students first cultivate their hearts, and then practice from their hearts. This is the right path. They first change their behaviors through thousands of trainings, and then influence their hearts through their behaviors. This is putting the cart before the horse."
Li Wenling was a very unique existence in the Confucian Mansion. His grandfather and even Ji Li had advised him not to get too close to Li Wenling.
But after talking to him today, Yan Youqin felt that Li Wenling was unfathomable and his practice in Confucianism and Taoism might have surpassed that of his grandfather, who was the first doctor of the Five Classics.
"Why did Mr. Li say this to me?"
"I have been very painful these years because I can't find anyone who agrees with me. I have recently realized something. I found that all human pain comes from actions that violate the heart. The reason for my pain is because I worry too much.
But I can’t live according to my own wishes, so I’m ready to leave!
Li Wenling had a child-like smile on his face. Li Wenling had an innocent heart and maintained an innocent enthusiasm. He often did many ridiculous things in the Confucian mansion.
But no one knows that this is because what he understood and learned has surpassed the current teachings of Confucianism.
"Leave? Where are you going?"
"The world I know is from Lu Daoxuan's mouth and the letters he gave me. Now I want to go and see it myself.
Go and see the snow-capped mountains that have never melted in the Hanyuan. Go and taste the unique cold lake fish in the world. Go and see the Stealing Spring. Is it true that some people will commit robberies if they drink the spring water? This world is very interesting. I
I have been stuck in Xihe for too long.”
Li Wenling was eager to try.
"The people in the Confucian government have placed extremely strong restrictions on the Emperor's Bell, and I will definitely not be able to conquer it on my own.
But the owner of the Emperor's Bell was Canghai, the goddess and witch from Wushan more than 2,000 years ago. No one thought that she actually had a trace of her ghost in the Emperor's Bell.
You also know that I am familiar with Yin Dharma, and it was only after I relied on Yin Dharma to communicate with the Yin Spirit of Senior Wu Canghai that I broke their restrictions."
On the way back, Jiang Yan and Wei Changli told about their experiences in the library, half truths and half falsehoods, and the part about Fang Xiang Emperor Ye was omitted. Wei Changli listened with a look of gloating on his face.
"This bunch of stinky Confucian scholars, with their eight hundred thoughts, it was just one move in the end. But I really didn't expect that the Emperor's Bell was dug up from a person's grave. It's really shameless. The name of the Confucian family has been clear for generations."
Totally ruined”
"Do you want to give them some publicity?" Jiang Yan asked maliciously.
"It's enough for us to know it ourselves. If we take other people's things, we shouldn't promote others' evil, otherwise these old Confucian scholars will really kill people."
No one expected that after the Ehu meeting, the Confucian government would face a third round of blows. Li Wenling, one of the doctors of the Five Classics, defected!
