Gongsun Long earnestly said that he was willing to go to Yan Kingdom to lobby King Yan, but now, Mingyue was silent.

Gongsun Long is worthy of being an experienced debater, and his analysis of the situation has a beginning and an end, but he doesn't know that what Mingyue wants now is not to turn a big thing into a small matter, what he wants is to force Qi State to fight a battle with Yan State!

The Three Kingdoms of Yan, Zhao and Qi are in the North China Plain, in which Zhao is strong and Qi and Yan are weak, if it is not for Qi and Yan to have a deep feud in the sea of blood and cannot unite, the future pattern will inevitably be two weak and one strong together.

But after so many years of peace, there will be no more conflicts, and the old scars of the two countries will be healed! In Mingyue's big plan, it is intolerable that Qi and Yan Xiangxiang are safe, geographically speaking, they can all threaten the hinterland of Zhao State, and Qi State is currently conservative and peaceful, but Yan State is an unstable factor behind Zhao State. In history, a few years later, in the Battle of Changping, Yan Guo and Qin Lianheng pulled Zhao Guo a lot of hind legs, and later took advantage of Zhao Guo's youth to die, sent troops to attack Zhao, and was beaten back by the veteran Lian Po with a group of baby soldiers.

If you don't take advantage of your strength to cripple the wolf, do you still wait for it to gnaw a few bites of meat when you are weak and sick?

At this point, Gongsun Long, who is a Zhao person, is so smart, doesn't he understand?

But looking at Gongsun Long's expression of wanting to speak and stopping, Mingyue suddenly realized......

No, he understood, but it was precisely because he understood that Gongsun Long wanted to stand up and go to Yan Country in person to stop this war that could be fought or not......

The world often remembers the sharp lips and tongues of famous people, but they often forget that in the final analysis, they are still a group of pacifists who advocate "Yanbing"!

Zhuangzi chose to escape from the world, while his good friend, the famous master Hui Shi, chose a different political path, and joined the ranks of ministers with the ideals of "going to respect", "Yanbing", "pan love" and "stopping greed".

As a scholar of the famous scholars, Gongsun Long, like Hui Shi, also advocated "Yan Bing", and tried to persuade the princes and monarchs to stop the senseless wars between them on several occasions.

Mingyue remembered that when Pingyuan Jun introduced Gongsun Long, he said that in the fifteenth year of King Zhao Huiwen (284 BC), King Yan Zhao wanted to send Le Yi to attack Qi, so Gongsun Long led his disciples from Zhao to Yan and tried to persuade him to quit his army.

In the nineteenth year of King Zhao Huiwen (280 BC), Gongsun Long discussed the matter of Yan soldiers with King Zhao Huiwen. King Zhao Huiwen asked Gongsun Long: "The widow has been a soldier for more than ten years, but if it doesn't work, the soldier can't be left behind?" Gongsun Long replied: "The meaning of the Yanbing is also the heart of love for the world." and love the world, you can't be in a false name, there must be a fact. He pointed out that King Huiwen of Zhao was so sad that he was so sad when he was seized by Qin that he was so happy that he ate and drank wine when he got the territory from Qi......

This kind of political view is also the reason why famous artists cannot be reused by princes.

Thinking of these past events, Mingyue knew that he had come in vain, he stood up, bowed to Gongsun Long, and said casually: "It's the kid who is reckless, but I forgot, although Mr. has a holiday with the Mo family, but he inherits Keizi's Yanbing proposition, in this regard, there is no difference from the Mo family's love and non-attack......"

"Yes." Gongsun Long breathed a sigh of relief and explained his original intention: "Although I am a Zhao person, although I am a retainer of the Pingyuan Jun, and I also promised to help my son, but only in the matter of Qi Fayan, I can't help my son!" ”

Unexpectedly, Gongsun Long, who thought it was his own person, was hit with a black gun, and Mingyue said faintly: "Sir, this is a broken promise......"

Gongsun Long bowed to the ground: "However, I am dishonest. But the scholar has something to do, and he also has something to do, and the son would rather disobey the king of Qi, but also believe in the person he likes. Although the old man is not talented, he has promised the division commander since he studied with the teacher, and he will inherit the ambition of Keiko, love the people and be a righteous soldier. In this matter, I will also believe in the last life, and this is the great faith......"

That's right, he is Gongsun Long, a famous leader, not a dog raised by the son of the Zhao royal family, let him bite whoever he bites......

He also has his own bottom line and creed to abide by, and he will never go against his original intention, like a vertical and horizontal debater, to lobby the two countries to fight and profit from it!

Mingyue sighed: "Sir is very disappointed, my father had no interest in Yanbing back then, and now, for my own selfishness, I want to add fuel to the fire and prolong a war that could have been avoided." ”

Gongsun Long did not stand on the moral high ground to criticize him, and bowed again: "Ji Si Ye, the raccoon rat, is just seeking his own government in his position, and Gongzi also has the difficulties of Gongzi, no better than me, a poor man who has no worries about freedom." ”

This is the disadvantage of being born in a royal family, Mingyue, as a traverser, should have the most concept of loving the world, but unconsciously, he has habitually considered things from the perspective of "Prince Zhao Guogong" and considered the interests of his country.

Because he knew very well that once the kingdom was defeated, his life as a rich and glorious son would come to an end.

At the end of the day, he's still a self-loving person.

Mingyue was not entangled, and said with a smile: "Although what Mr. said is reasonable, I still can't do the level of love for the world like Mr., and I can't love my neighbor's son as my own son, unless the neighbor's son is my son." ”

After telling this cold joke that should not have been said at his age, Mingyue got up to say goodbye, and when Gongsun Long sent him out, he suddenly looked back and said, "Sir, if I insist on promoting this matter, will you stand up and stand in my way?" ”

The words are respectful, but full of warnings. The hidden meaning is clear: if you stand in my way, then we will no longer be friends, but enemies!

Gongsun Long sighed, and the gray-haired master of the famous family beat his legs, and said with a wry smile: "Old, there are no high-cart horses, and the old man can't reach the bitter cold Yan Country by relying on his legs alone, so the prince should do it himself." But the old man still has a sentence to say, the ambition of the son is great, but you must not do anything for the end, indulge in small tricks and lose a benevolent heart......"

"Thank you, sir, for the warning, the boy will take it to heart!" Mingyue said goodbye again, and the taste of the two of them drinking and laughing still remained on his lips and teeth, but in his heart, why was he so helpless?

……

When walking from Gongsun Long's residence to the outside of the school palace, Mingyue was also uneasy, and a group of Mo family members surrounded him, and at first they were still shouting at his injury, but then they expressed their intentions, and it turned out that they hoped that he would let go of Geng Jie and put an end to the war......

They gossiped and talked to Mingyue about the Mo family's "non-offensive" concept.

"Chang'anjun, if you love each other in the world, you will rule, and if you are evil, you will be chaotic!"

"Chang'an Jun, the weak do not attack the small, the strong do not insult the weak, the many do not steal the widows, the deceit does not deceive the foolish, the noble is not arrogant, the rich are not arrogant and the poor, and the strong do not take the old. In this way, the world will be a country, and if you don't use water, fire, poison, and weapons to harm each other, then the world will be under great rule! ”

Mingyue was dizzy by their quarrel, and pretended to point to her wound with indignation: "Second and third sons, it was Yan Guo who assassinated me first, and it was Yan Guo who invaded the territory of Zhao State without declaring war, and my Zhao State is just fighting back against aggression, this is a righteous war!" Didn't the Mo family approve of the righteous war of defense and punishment? ”

Everyone in the Mo family looked at each other, and finally their leader Chen Qiu stood up and sighed: "Childe, when the small country has fallen today, only the seven countries are left to merge, and there is no righteous war in the world. Although this matter is wrong with Yan Guo, if Zhao Qi and Yan fight each other, the number of killings will be tens of thousands, and the number of widows will be thousands, and blood will be lost. I also hope that Gongzi is an innocent citizen of the Three Kingdoms, and can persuade King Zhao to quell this war, and our Mo family children are also willing to go north to Yan and persuade King Yan to truce and seek peace. Lao Yu remembered that Yan Zhao also had in-laws, and the son's sister was Queen Yan, and the relatives were fighting each other, why bother? Wouldn't it be beautiful if you could turn war into jade......"

Mingyue was silent again, but he kept bowing his head and stopped talking, he was a little helpless, the famous and Mo families who were friendly with him before were all against the war, how should this be good? Could it be that he is in the country of Qi, so he has no help?

At this time, he also suddenly realized why the princes of the great powers would rather use the undisciplined debaters Zhang Yi and Gongsun Yan than reuse the remaining nine and ten families, because each family has its own political opinions and bottom line.

There are also Legalists, and Legalists don't think about things like "benevolence" and the desire of the monarch, they will do their best to realize it regardless of right and wrong......

On the contrary, the Jixia School Palace is too bottom-line, the overall tone here is against the war, they even want to stop Yan Zhao's war, let alone persuade the King of Qi to fight Yan, Mingyue knew that she couldn't seek help here, so she hurriedly squeezed out of the School Palace, planning to figure out a way by herself.

"It seems that it is unreliable to count on the hundred schools of thought politically, and I also need to find some strategists who do not care about right and wrong, righteousness, and respond to my needs......"

Unexpectedly, after leaving the archway of the school palace, Mingyue found that there was a young scholar talking and laughing with the imperial Li next to his carriage......

When he took a closer look, he found that it was the apprentice of the Xuegong Sacrifice Wine Xunzi, Li Si......

"Li Si meets Chang'anjun!"

In the distance, when he found Mingyue coming, Li Si saluted respectfully.

"Brother Li, why be polite."

Mingyue smiled and helped him up, he didn't dare to slack off on this future celebrity.

The most special thing about Xunzi is that as a "Confucian" master, he taught two Legalist apprentices. Han Fei and Li Si, a master of theories and a school of practice, are all temporary choices, just these two people are worthy of Mingyue's memory of worshiping Xunzi as a teacher, although because of various things, this idea has not been realized.

Although Li Si was still a hairy guy at this time, there was still a long way to go before the prime minister of Daqin, who was above 10,000 people under one person forty or fifty years later, but Mingyue took precautions and made friends with Li Si Qujie at the beginning, and gave him gifts and money.

Li Si's vision is not high now, he just came to Linzi from the small place of Shangcai in Chu State, and he is full of envy for this world of flowers, how could he have thought that he would soar in Qin Country in the future? When the "nobleman" Chang Anjun was polite to him and took a "Brother Li", he was also flattered, and he had the self-satisfaction of climbing the high branches......

The difficult thing is that he is just a poor man in the Chu country, and he has nothing to give in return.

At this moment, seeing Chang Anjun coming out a little embarrassed under the noise of the famous Mo family in the Jixia School Palace, Li Si couldn't help but roll his eyes, he knew that his opportunity had come!

So after a few words of greeting, Li Si wanted to speak and stopped......

Mingyue saw that he had something to say, so she kept her entourage a little farther away and asked, "I wonder if Brother Li has anything to say to me?" ”

Although Li Si boasted that he had a strategy, after all, he was young, and it was inevitable that he was a little nervous when he first made suggestions to others, and he pinched his sweaty hands before coughing and asking: "Chang'an Jun is worried about the fact that King Qi did not send troops to attack Yan?" The villain has a plan, or he may be able to share the worries of Chang'anjun......"

"Oh!" Mingyue pretended to be overjoyed, and pulled Li Si to ask urgently, "I don't know what Brother Li's plan is!?" ”

Seeing Chang Anjun's appearance, Li Si couldn't help but feel complacent, touched his chin with a few beards, and said with a smile: "Have you ever heard of the Ram Pie?" “
