Chapter 128: White Horses Are Not Horses

In the middle of the square, there is a stone tablet about three zhang high, the stone tablet is peculiar, the strange stone is craggy, but it is naturally formed, but someone has slightly smoothed and modified it, and it looks very smooth and solemn.

On the stele is the four big characters of the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing, shining with golden light, and the book reads: "Jixia School Palace." ”

Legend has it that when Duke Qi Huan founded the Jixia School Palace, he personally went to the book.

Zhao Fan was walking towards the square, and suddenly there was a bell in the hall, the bell was ethereal, echoing in the entire school palace, and the surrounding scholars heard the sound, and they put down the things in their hands one after another, and hurriedly walked towards the main hall in front of the square.

"Mr. Gongsun is going to give a lecture, let's go and listen to it together, otherwise if you can't catch up, you may not have a chance to hear it next time." At this time, several scholars hurriedly walked past Zhao Fan, talking as they walked.

"That's right, I heard that Mr. Gongsun Long's white horse and non-horse thinking are extremely peculiar, and even the Lord of the Sacrificial Wine is very praised." Another gentleman followed suit.

A few people were talking, without looking at Zhao Fan, and hurried away.

"Gongsun Long?"

Zhao Fan was also taken aback at the moment, Gongsun Long was a famous philosopher during the Warring States Period, and his name Zhao Fan had also heard of it, especially the propositions such as "White Horse is Not Horse" and "Lijian White", even in Zhao Fan's previous life, he was also very famous.

He was stunned, and then he followed the scholars towards the main hall. Today, since he came, he will also listen to the class of this Warring States period and see how it is different from his previous life.

The main hall was very wide, and when he heard that Gongsun Long was going to give a lecture, a large number of Confucian scholars suddenly gathered. Following the footsteps of everyone, Zhao Fan came to a secluded and elegant lobby. There are dozens of long tables placed horizontally, and the ground is also covered with bamboo mats.

At this moment, some students have already hurriedly occupied seats, sitting on the bamboo mats, and at the front of the lobby, there is a smooth and soft futon.

After about half a pillar of incense, all the students arrived, and everyone sat upright on the bamboo mat, and sat down to listen carefully.

At this time, a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties wearing a simple robe walked into the lobby from the main entrance, and as soon as his figure appeared, all the students stood up one after another, bowed deeply to the middle-aged man, and said, "The students have seen Mr. Gongsun." ”

This person is Gongsun Long, and from the outside, there is nothing unusual about him. The body is thin and ordinary, but he is relatively tall, and his temperament is very high, giving people a sense of awe.

Gongsun Longyun nodded lightly, walked to the center of the front of the hall without hurrying, sat cross-legged on the futon, smiled slightly, and said: "It's an honor to come to Jixia School Palace to give a lecture to you, this time, I will tell you about the idea of white horses and non-horses." ”

"Horses, so the shape of life; The white one is also fatal. The one who lives is not the shape of the life. Therefore, it is said: white horses are not horses......"

The students sat on their knees with bated breath and listened.

Zhao Fan was also sitting in the most remote position in the lobby at the moment, no one paid attention to him, there were as many as a thousand students in the Jixia School Palace, and it was impossible for everyone to know anyone. Gongsun Long's speech is extremely obscure, and the proposition that a white horse is not a horse, even in the previous life, is very difficult to explain.

Therefore, at this moment, Zhao Fan is also listening to the clouds,

And those students, who were diametrically opposed to Zhao Fan, listened with relish, shaking their heads one by one, and didn't know what they understood.

Hearing the back, Zhao Fan gradually seemed to realize something, the more he went to the back, it turned out to be more and more addictive, and the previous questions suddenly became clear, although Gongsun Long said for an hour, but in Zhao Fan's opinion, it was very fast.

Gongsun Long is also worthy of being a gentleman who can give lectures in the Jixia School Palace, many of his words, although short, often contain a lot of philosophy, even Zhao Fan, who has gone through more than ten or twenty years of advanced education in his previous life, also feels that he has gained a lot.

After Gongsun Long finished saying this, he suddenly stood up from the futon, shook his long sleeves, and said fiercely: "Everyone, we Qi and Zhao are afraid that they will be destroyed by the Qin State." ”

"Last night, the king of Qi announced to the world that he and Qin were called the two emperors of the east and the west, and they were about to attack Zhao. As soon as the Zhao State was destroyed, the Qi State was exposed to the strong Qin, the tiger and wolf Qin State has always liked to meddle in the affairs of various countries, once the Zhao State is destroyed, the Qin State will act more unscrupulously, and when the time comes, not only will we go down to the School Palace, but we are afraid of the Qi State, and it is also in danger. ”

Zhao Fan persuaded King Qi to give up the emperor title this morning, just one or two hours have passed, and it has not yet had time to announce it, so these gentlemen and students in the Jixia School Palace don't know about it.

Gongsun Long is a native of Zhao State, and seeing that Zhao State is in danger, it is reasonable to launch this rhetoric.

These students and scholars listened to Gongsun Long's remarks, and they were also in good spirits for a while, and they were angry for a while, and some people immediately shouted: "We also know about this matter, but the king only favors Su Qin and villains now, and the suggestions we made during this time are ignored by the king, we ...... We can't help it. ”

"That's right, I suspect that the plan of Lian Qin to attack Zhao was proposed to the king by Wei Ran and Su Qin in conspire. Last time, Su Qin also suggested that the king attack the Song State, and in the end, the Qin State intervened, and our Great Qi not only did not get any benefits, but instead worked the people and lost money, and the soldiers were miserable. At this time, someone else said.

Zhao Fan listened to the words of these scholars, and couldn't help but shudder in his heart, no wonder Su Qin was so disgusted with these people in the Jixia School Palace, and it was not surprising to listen to these scholars' bad words to Su Qin.

Lian Qin's attack on Zhao was completely agreed by the King of Qi himself, and it had nothing to do with Su Qin's half a dime, and in this matter, Su Qin was really resentful. However, it can also be seen from this that Su Qin's reputation in the Jixia School Palace is extremely bad.

These scholars began to talk about it, and when they got to the back, not only Su Qin, but even King Qi also piggybacked. There are even some older gentlemen, who shouted loudly, ashamed of the high hopes of the previous king, and did not persuade the current king of Qi, so that the former was deceived by the villain of Su Qin, causing the country of Qi to be in danger.

Looking at the excited appearance of this group of scholars, Zhao Fan also smiled bitterly.

However, this phenomenon in front of us also indirectly reflects the contention of a hundred schools of thought during the Warring States Period, and the unprecedented freedom of academic thought. Where even kings dare to scold in public, how open-minded are they?

King Qi Min is not a gentlemanly king, but after all, Jixia School Palace is a hundred schools of famous scholars and Confucian scholars who almost represent the entire world. So no matter what they say, King Qi knows about it, and he doesn't dare to do anything, people at this time pay attention to their reputation, even the king is no exception, and even cares more.

Zhao Fan looked at their red-faced appearances, and felt that it was time to tell them that King Qi had given up the matter of being emperor, and immediately, he also stood up from the bamboo mat and said, "Uh...... Everyone, you don't have to involve the matter of the king and Qin and Zhao, and it will involve the fake adult. This morning, under the persuasion of the false appearance, the king has given up the plan to become the emperor, and I believe that it will not be long before news will come from the palace. ”
