I fell asleep in the valley, and when I woke up, I was already on my bed, and it must have stopped Zhang Liang hugged me back. Originally, I was worried that Xunzi would be late for class, but this time I escaped the punishment of a hand-slap.

In today's class, Xunzi has already begun to teach the Book of Changes, and he will throw out some strange problems to me. For example, why is the Taiji diagram round instead of square? Why is the I Ching sixty-four hexagrams instead of sixty-three or eighty-four hexagrams?

Xunzi likes weird people, and I'm tired of listening to those words that have no insight and fixed thinking, so I can only rack my brains and try to say something that sounds very unique to prevaricate. For example, why the Taiji diagram is round, I said that because round things are easy to change, just like the wheels of a car, they are all round, if you have to be special, if you want to be square, you will definitely not be able to drive. Another example is comity first, should we give in or not? I say this...... I can only watch it myself...... "The Mean" has clouds: too much.

I thought Xunzi would scold me, but he just smiled faintly. What an elusive old man, and I guess that while my thoughts were a bit shocking, it sounded like a good nonsensical joke, and it was fun to spend his days in seclusion. So, I was not punished, and walked out of the half-bamboo garden safe and sound.

I finally had a little grasp of Xunzi's thoughts, I was in a good mood, I walked through the archery field, and saw Shaoyu in archery, so I also stepped forward to try a few hands.

Shaoyu is very in shape, and every shot is in the heart. It seems that he has regained his fighting spirit and accepted the command of Long Ji's troops: the Tenglong Legion.

"Ziyu, do you believe Chu Nangong's words?" I asked.

"Third Master, what about you?"

"As for the prophecy of the future, you can only know whether it is true or false if you have worked hard towards this goal, and if you don't try to rest on your laurels, even if it is true, it will become false. ”

The corners of Shaoyu's mouth hooked, and he smiled heroically: "What the third master said is very true." He raised his hand and shot an arrow, hitting the red heart.

At this time, I suddenly heard the hurried voice of a Confucian disciple behind me: "Third Master, you have finally returned, and everyone has been looking for you." ”

I turned my head to look and saw Zhang Liang standing not far away, as if he had been watching us shoot arrows.

He asked his disciple, "What's the matter?"

"The Master asked you to come and see him. ”

Seeing the disciple's anxious appearance, Zhang Liang's face condensed slightly: "What's wrong?"

"Master respects him...... He seemed to be very angry, and the second master was also called. ”

He sighed lightly and replied, "Let's go." ”

I glanced at Shao Yu: "Zi Yu, I'll take a look." ”

Shao Yu smiled and nodded: "I'll take Ziming out first to avoid this possible storm." ”

****

I followed them to the antechamber. As soon as he stood still, he heard a bang, looked inside, and Fu Nian's face was grim and his fist was pressed against the table: "What's the reason, you said it!"

"Senior brother......" Zhang Liang wanted to explain, but his words were interrupted by Fu Nian's sharp voice.

"I didn't ask you, and it wasn't your turn to speak!" Fu Nian raised his eyebrows solemnly, showing his majesty

"Senior brother, it's all my decision, if you want to blame, punish me. Yan Lu lowered his eyes and said unhurriedly.

Hearing that Yan Lu took all the fault on himself, Zhang Liang glanced sideways at Yan Lu, but still didn't interject after all. Maybe there is no such scene between them once or twice, Yan Lu has always indulged and spoiled Zhang Liang, it is conceivable that every time Zhang Liang makes a mistake and is held accountable, Yan Lu must be like this, and take the initiative to stand up and be punished.

Fu Nian then said aggressively: "Your decision?, putting the safety of the people of the Little Sage Village on top of the fire, and mixing up the rebellion of the entire Confucianism with the empire, this is your decision?!" Although he was reprimanding Yan Lu, Fu Nian's gaze swept sharply over Zhang Liang.

Yan Lu was willing to bear the Confucian family law. Yan Lu said that he was willing, as if he should be burdened by him.

"Ignoring the teachings of the sages and ancestors, according to the family law, how should we deal with it?"

Yan Lu paused, without a trace of hesitation, and said word by word: "Expelled from the division." ”

"No!" Zhang Liang blurted out, completely different from his previous calmness and calmness, and was a little anxious and eager.

Fu Nian turned a blind eye to Zhang Liang's slightly excited reaction, and continued to reprimand Yan Ludao: "You practice the method of sitting and forgetting your heart, and you actually practice so much that you forget your ancestors. ”

"The sage patriarch said, do not give in, and act bravely. In this way, how can you forget your ancestors?!" Zhang Liang finally couldn't help but help Yan Lu defend:

"Needless to say, the ovary. Yan Lu said with a slightly commanding tone, obviously he didn't want Zhang Liang to have a head-on conflict with Fu Nian.

Fu Nian was already enraged, and his eyes widened and he asked, "What kind of benevolence should you be for assisting the empire in rebellion and disturbing the world?"

"The benevolent, the lover, the righteous, altruistic. When someone is in danger, should we Confucians stand up, or stand idly by for the sake of our own safety and interests?"

Zhang Liang said from the bottom of his heart, and Fu Nian was also sonorous and powerful: "Zi said: Those who can do the five are benevolent in the world." Respectful, generous, faithful, sensitive, favorable, respectful, respectful, and loyal. For example, the people do not know humility, the officials do not know integrity, and the subordinates do not know loyalty. If the people of a country are contemplating murder of the king, will not the country be plunged into turmoil, and the people will not be in peril?"

Zhang Liang said unyieldingly: "If we don't ask about the indiscriminate and blindly demand that the people be loyal to the king, will the world be peaceful and the people will live and work in peace and contentment? The little help, the relatives, the help, the world. "Mencius: Wholeheartedly" also teaches that the people are precious, the community is secondary, and the monarch is light. The vitality of the people is the most precious and important thing. Only in this way can there be a state and a king. ”

Fu Nian got up suddenly: "You take the words out of context, have you forgotten that "Mencius Lilou Shang" says that if you don't follow the six rules, you can't correct the five tones, and if you don't follow the rules, you can't make a square circle? If there is no ethical norm and no social order, what can we talk about a social state? Without a social state, how can we protect the interests of the people? Without security, how can we talk about the people as valuable?"

When we hear such an opening, we know that there is no such thing as a winner-loser, and that whoever is on has its own position, and how many people can guess the course of history? There is no god who has insight into one thing, and everyone has their own opinions, and in addition to wishful thinking and stubbornness, I am afraid that it will be a long time before we can see what the present is. Even if I come from the future, it is difficult for me to judge the rights and wrongs of history, and I dare not decide anything on my own. The butterfly effect is by no means an alarmist concept, a small change can cause turbulent waves, and it is not a "simple repair", but may be more dangerous.

Of course, for me, Zhang Liang's decision is bound to be closer to the course of history. It occurred to me that I might be able to ask Xunzi now, he was the only one who could convince Fu Nian.

I turned around and wanted to go to Banzhuyuan, but I was shocked that Xunzi was already standing behind me. I just wanted to salute out loud, but Xunzi raised his hand to signal me to be quiet and not to be alarmed.

"The foundation of governing the country, respect and faith, thrift and love others. If a king does not love his people, he cannot be considered a qualified king. If the Son of Heaven is not benevolent, he will not be able to protect the world, and if the princes are not benevolent, he will not be able to protect his country, and if the king is not benevolent, he will not be able to protect his world. Zhang Liang's generous statement sounded like the confrontation between him and Fu Nian was getting more and more intense.

I looked back, Fu Nian's face was already pale, and he shouted angrily: "I only know one but I don't know the other, you forgot that there are two sentences in the back, if the emperor and the doctor are not kind, his temple and family will be destroyed, and if the people are not kind, they will lose their lives." ”

Zhang Liang's words were vibrating: "Mencius said, life is also what I want, righteousness is also what I want, you can't have both, sacrifice your life and take righteousness!"

Yan Lu was also shocked: "Ovary!"

Fu Nian slapped the case violently and shouted: "Enough! What did you just say?

Zhang Liang's tone was a little slower, but he still said categorically: "I mean if you can't have both fish and bear's paws." ”

"Do you have to spare the price of your life? Do you not hesitate to pay the price of your own life, or the life of the entire little sage village? Heaven and earth are the indispensable ethical principles of Confucianism, and there is a difference between monarchs and ministers, and there is an order between the young and the old, and what you have to do now is to raise an army to rebel and bring disaster to the entire Confucianism!" Fu Nian asked sharply, and every word was heartbroken.

At this time, Zhang Liang seemed to have a hint of hesitation in his tone, but he still did not compromise at all: "I didn't." ”

"Come on, ...... these two" At this moment, Fu Nian's words stopped in mid-air, because Xunzi, who was most in awe of Fu Nian, had already walked in front of the door.

"Listening to you arguing around, it's both family law and national law, it seems to be for the sake of two children. ”

Xunzi said lightly, but with a hint of majesty, as if the king who was not angry and mighty rebuked lightly.

Fu Nian said respectfully: "They ...... All are rebellious and wanted felons by the Empire. At present, the entire Songhai is under the strict supervision of the empire, and in recent days, a large number of troops have been stationed, since the last time Lord Xiangguo came to Xiaoshengxian Village......"

"Lees, are you going to give your two children to this man?"

"This is for the ...... of Confucianism"

"For the sake of the empire, for the sake of assisting his master, and for his official fortune, Li Si can kill his fellow disciple Han Fei. And you, for the sake of the safety of Confucianism, have to use family law to deal with your two teachers and disciples, Lu and Zifang. ”

Fu Nian's brows tightened: "Uncle Shi......"

Xunzi said again: "Do you remember the fire in the Little Sage Village Library back then?"

Everyone's faces changed, and it seemed that they all knew that Li Si had a bad heart in his early years. In the year of the fire in the library building, Li Si happened to be expelled from the division. And last time, Li Si intercepted the road halfway on our way back to Zhuang, invited Zhang Liang to meet, and asked Zhang Liang about the clues of Canglong Qisu and Han Fei. Li Si, Library Building, "Canglong", Han Fei...... They all have an inseparable relationship with the Seven Nights of Canglong.

Xunzi said in a serious tone: "The road he has traveled is full of blood and dry bones, and you plan to hand over the two children to such a person?"

"Uncle Shi, what I did was to protect the safety of the little sage village and continue the Confucianism of the ancestors and ancestors. This is also my unshirkable responsibility as the head of Confucianism. This responsibility is only for me, I dare not be lazy, and I cannot let anyone share it for me. Even my uncle, whom I respect very much, you old man. ”

"I know very well that you are the head of Confucianism, but I still have a few words before you make a decision. It is not righteous to take what you have from it, and it is not benevolent to kill an innocent person. If you hand over these two teenagers to Lees, what awaits them? ”

Fu Nian was silent, Xun Zi paused, and suddenly turned to me without warning, "Ziyu, you have been standing outside eavesdropping for so long, you might as well tell me your position." ”

I was stunned for a moment, Xunzi would actually let a woman participate in a debate about the safety of Confucianism on such a critical occasion, "Uncle, I'm afraid I'm a woman on this occasion......"

"You are not only a descendant of the Fa family Shen Buharm, but also the person Han Fei entrusted to take care of the ovary, but it doesn't hurt to say it. ”

Han Fei is related to my layer, I only heard Zhang Liang say it to the people of the quicksand organization, and it turns out that Xunzi already knows. And Xunzi suddenly emphasized this matter at this time, did he want to remind Fu Nian Li Si's true purpose? Li Si's target of his attention was never only these two children, but also the big secret of the Canglong Seven Nights. Therefore, it is unlikely that it is impossible to expect that handing over the two children will be able to calm things down and keep the little sage village. If Fu Nian handed over Ziyu Ziming today, he would also be forced to hand over everyone who was involved with Han Fei and Canglong Qisu in the future, and even the entire Little Sage Village.

Although I knew something in my heart, I didn't know what to say for a while, so I quickly organized a clue in my mind that was suitable for expression, and said: "The concubine is contemptuous, Li Si is jealous of persecuting Han Fei, and he will not allow the hundred schools of thought to threaten the absolute authority of his Legalist family, and he will definitely try his best to reject it, maybe it will ...... Play hard. The concubine agrees with this sentence: When a matter becomes a major event in the world, no one in the world can stay out of it, whether he wants it or not. ”

I inadvertently quoted Zhang Liang's words, fortunately there was no room or anything like that, otherwise I wouldn't have been angry with Fu Nian, I looked at Fu Nian and said: "Benevolence and righteousness are the essence of Confucianism, as long as benevolence and righteousness exist in the hearts of people all over the world, Confucianism is broad and profound, and it will naturally be passed down for centuries and will not be extinguished." ”

After speaking, there was silence. This is the most difficult choice, and it has a heavy weight that goes straight to the bottom of people's hearts.

After a long time, Xunzi said slowly: "In any case, it is you who make the final decision." The decision of the head of the house is the decision of Xiao Shengxian Village. ”

Xunzi turned to leave, Fu Nian stood there in a daze, his lips closed, unable to speak, his clenched fists trembled slightly. A sad look slowly appeared on his face, and he seemed to be torturing himself, can Confucianism really stay out of it? He sat down slowly and said in a deep voice, "You guys go down." ”
