Chapter 147: Confucianism and Taoism complement each other

"What misunderstanding can there be, he killed the whole family so decisively, he is also an old man, how can he be so ruthless." Chen Gong told Zhang Hao about himself and Cao Cao going to Lu Bohao's house, and said with a sigh.

"Maybe it's really Lu Boyu's family who wants to expose Meng De." Zhang Hao listened to the whole story, felt that there was something wrong, and frowned and said.

"How so?" Chen Gong asked in surprise.

"First of all, Lu Boyu personally went out to buy wine, which is a little intriguing." Zhang Hao said.

"Oh? Any explanation? Hearing what Zhang Hao said, Chen Gong became even more curious.

"When there are guests in the house, how can the host go out to buy wine? Generally, the host greets the guests and asks the family to go out to buy wine, and Lu Bohao's family has five sons, and he actually went to buy wine himself. ”

"This is not a sign of welcoming guests, it can be seen that at least Lu Boyao does not welcome the arrival of Meng De, and looking at Lu Bohao's solid family, it is impossible for the family to not even have drinks."

"And he personally went out to buy wine, even if he didn't report to the official, he deliberately made people suspicious." Zhang Hao explained slowly.

"Deliberately suspicious?" Chen Gong listened to Zhang Hao's words, thoughtfully, nodded from time to time, and when he heard the last sentence, he looked at Zhang Hao suspiciously.

"Lu Bohao has an old relationship with Meng De's father, many people know about it, and Dong Zhuo's document of arresting Meng De has long been passed over, and his fanfare to entertain guests is easy to make people suspicious."

"Besides, how can anyone kill pigs in the middle of the night, and those who kill pigs and sheep in the middle of the night, are they afraid that others will not know that there are guests at his house, or do they just deliberately let people know?"

"There is also Lu Bohao's family, if you really want to entertain you, it is impossible for the whole family to go to kill pigs together, and no one will greet you." Zhang Hao explained to Chen Gong with a smile.

"But, even so, we can just leave, why bother killing the whole family." Chen Gong basically believed Zhang Hao's speculation, but he was still complaining that Cao Cao was a little ruthless.

While a few people were talking, a large group of soldiers galloped past, and the direction they were moving in was the direction of Lu Bohao's house, which confirmed Zhang Hao's speculation.

"Mr. Gongtai, I wonder what you're going to do next?" Zhang Hao looked at Chen Gong and asked, Zhang Hao was not idle and told Chen Gong about this, but put Chen Gong's idea.

"This ......" Chen Gong was speechless for a moment, not knowing where to go.

In order to save Cao Cao, he has abandoned his official position, obviously he can't go back to Zhongmu anymore, and now he has fallen out with Cao Cao, and it is impossible to follow Cao Cao anymore.

Zhang Hao just expected that Chen Gong would no longer be able to follow Cao Cao, so he explained so much to him, and left a good impression on Chen Gong first.

The two of them have a suspicion, even if they are explained, Chen Gong can no longer look for Cao Cao, not to mention that Chen Gong's arrogance does not allow him to go, that is, in his impression, Cao Cao's treacherous and cunning image has been left.

"Why don't you go back to Liaodong with me for the time being, and then make plans later?" Zhang Hao looked at the tangled Chen Gong and asked with a smile.

"Now that Cao Cao is released privately in the palace and left with a seal, I am afraid that he will be wanted by Dong Zhuo in the future and bring trouble to adults." Chen Gong thought for a moment and arched his hand and said.

"The public platform is at ease, I already have the intention of currying favor with Dong, and I am bound to be the enemy of Dong Zhuo, what am I afraid of?" Zhang Hao smiled and said.

"This ...... Then follow what the adults say, and the palace will temporarily avoid Liaodong and cause trouble to the adults. Chen Gong said respectfully.

"What did the public station say?" Zhang Hao said, laughing secretly in his heart, as long as he fooled people to Liaodong, he would serve himself sooner or later.

With the addition of Chen Gong, although Zhang Hao was happy in his heart, he was also a little troublesome, and the speed of several people rushing was obviously much slower than before.

Although there are some small problems, it does not affect the excitement in Zhang Hao's heart, although Chen Gong has only been a few years from his appearance to his death, and he has not left too many outstanding achievements in history, not even a biography.

However, he can be respected by Cao Cao and Lu Bu, and his ability is definitely not an ordinary person, the key is that his reputation is still good.

In Xiangping City, Liaodong, in the county guard's mansion, a table of banquets has been set up at this time, and in addition to Zhang Hao and Lu Zhi and Chen Gong brought back by him, there are only Zheng Xuan, Cai Yong, and Zhang Xin.

When he saw Zheng Xuan and the others, Chen Gong was extremely excited, except for Zhang Xin, Zheng Xuan, Cai Yong and Lu Zhi, who came back with him, these are all great Confucians in the world, and any scholar will probably be excited when they see it.

As for Lu Zhi, he has been out of the same house as Master Zheng Xuanshi, and he has been friends with Cai Yong for many years.

But when Lu Zhi and Chen Gong learned that what Zhang Xin was learning was Taoism, they seemed a little unhappy, in their impression, Confucianism and Taoism competed, how could they be so close.

Although Zhang Hao and Zheng Xuan were there, they didn't show it too obviously, but how could Zheng Xuan and Cai Yong not guess what Lu Zhi and the others were thinking.

"Brother Zi, it seems that you still have a lot of opinions about Taoist academics." Zheng Xuan looked at Lu Zhi and said.

"Kang Cheng, how can you mess with Taoist people." Seeing Zheng Xuan asking, Lu Zhi said dissatisfiedly, hearing Lu Zhi's words, Zhang Xin didn't refute it, nor did he get angry, just picked up the wine glass and took a sip alone.

"Brother Zi, you have such a mentality, Zeng Xuan also had, but after contacting Mr. Rebirth, I don't dare to agree with your mentality." Zheng Xuan said with a smile.

"What does Kangcheng think?" Lu Zhi looked at Zheng Xuan and asked.

"In the past few years, I have taught at the Faculty of Arts with Mr. Rebirth, and we often confirm each other, and now I think that Confucianism and Taoism can complement each other, Confucianism is based on Taoism, and Taoism is based on Confucianism."

"What does that mean?" Lu Zhi listened to Zheng Xuan's words, frowned and asked, and Chen Gong next to him also looked at Zheng Xuan with a curious expression.

"On the surface, Confucianism and Taoism are divorced and opposite, one enters the WTO and the other is born; One is optimistic and aggressive, the other is passive, but in fact they just complement each other and harmonize. Zheng Xuan said with a smile.

"Complement each other and harmonize?" Lu Zhi chewed on this sentence repeatedly, lowered his head and thought about it.

"Just like in our Confucian thought, self-cultivation and personal cultivation of Qi family to govern the country and level the world, Taoism is no longer limited to self-development, but rises to the level of nature and man, advocating nature, advocating quiet and inaction, and opposing struggle."

"If we complement each other, on the one hand, under the influence of Confucianism, adopt a positive attitude toward joining the WTO, and take the world as our own responsibility."

"On the other hand, under the influence of Taoism, when necessary, he adopts a detached and accessible attitude, conforms to nature without deliberately imposing it, and can be content with plainness and self-satisfaction."

"Embodying these two ideas in a person, using Confucianism to forge ahead, and Taoism to regulate, one can adapt to the mutual transformation of good times and bad times." Zheng Xuan explained slowly.
