Chapter 33: Zhou Tianzi

The number of qi is in the human race, and the human race is the protagonist of the world, after many years of accumulation, the immortals of the famous mountains and rivers in the past, in the face of the general trend of the human race, did not dare to make a mistake.

The world's etiquette and music have collapsed, but Luoyi, as the capital of the Great Zhou, is still the center of the world.

At this moment, under the city of Luoyi, two carriages stopped.

Four people got down from the carriage, Confucius, Qi Guanchi, Nangong Jingshu, and Ziyu. Bao Xi didn't want to show up after all.

"Teacher, this is Luoyi, you see, the rolling golden ocean in the sky is the number of qi! The number of gas in the big week! Uncle Nangong Jing pointed to the sky and said.

In the golden aura billowing above Luoyi, it seemed that a golden dragon with a length of 100,000 miles was hovering and sleeping. It's huge, and it's monstrous.

The walls of Luoyi are very tall and heavily guarded.

Kongqiu's two carriages stopped, and when the four of them stepped out of the carriage, they had already attracted the attention of the guards.

The guard was about to step forward, but a man in a Taoist robe stepped forward.

"But in front of Confucius of Lu State?" The man in the robe said solemnly.

"Lu Guo Kongqiu, come and ask to see Lao Tzu!" Confucius bowed slightly.

"Ah, sure enough, it's Confucius of Lu State, in Xia Yang Zhu, Lao Tzu's student, waiting here for a long time!" Yang Zhu saluted at Kong Qiu.

Waiting a lot?

Confucius was slightly surprised, and the three people on the side also frowned.

"Lao Tzu knows I'm coming?" Confucius laughed.

"The teacher has calculated your itinerary, so he naturally knows a lot! Let me wait here so that I will not be rude! Yang Zhu said with a smile.

Kong Qiu looked at Yang Zhu, it seemed to be ordinary, but it was like a spring breeze, generous and decent, hidden deeply, with Kong Qiu's eyesight, he could see that the purple aura behind him was monstrous, and it was unspeakably expensive.

"Lao Tzu has a good student!" Kongqiu nodded.

"Confucius, my Taoist pays attention to Taoism and nature, is quiet and inactive, knows etiquette, observes etiquette, but does not exceed etiquette, so I didn't make too much movement! Please forgive me! Yang Zhu said with a smile.

For Kong Qiu's welcome, there was no big gift, just an ordinary reception, Nangong Jing Uncle and Ziyu were dissatisfied, but Kong Qiu nodded: "Naturally it is the best, the mean is enough!" Sincerely, the form is simple! ”

Yang Zhu looked at Kong Qiu in surprise and smiled slightly: "Thank you!" Now, can I receive it for the time being? ”

"Yes!" Confucius nodded.

"So, please!" Yang Zhu said respectfully.

Confucius nodded: "This time to Luoyi, please see Lao Tzu, I also have a letter, I need time to present it to Zhou Tianzi, I hope that Your Excellency arranges for me to meet Lao Tzu, find out the time that can be presented to Zhou Tianzi!" ”

"Oh? A letter to Zhou Tianzi? Yang Zhu was surprised.

"Not bad!"

"I wonder for whom you are sending the letter?" Yang Zhu said curiously.

After all, according to the owner of the letter, it is good to determine the degree of preciousness and when to give it to Zhou Tianzi.

For example, the king's letter and the letter of the commoner, the Luoyi court attaches different importance to it, the king's letter can be presented to Zhou Tianzi on the same day, and the letter of the commoner may not reach Zhou Tianzi in his life.

"It's my letter!" Kongqiu explained.

"You? Do you write a letter to Zhou Tianzi? Yang Zhu was slightly stunned.

Although Yang Zhu was ordered by Lao Tzu to come to receive Confucius, in his heart, he didn't care about Confucius, not to mention that Shao Zhengmao had just died in the hands of Confucius.

No matter how bad Shao Zhengmao is doing outside, that is also a registered disciple of Lao Tzu, how to deal with it, Lao Tzu should also come, where is your turn as an outsider?

Now, do you still want to write to Zhou Tianzi?

"Today, Zhou Tianzi is sacrificing in Mingtang, Zhou Tianzi is approachable and often enjoys with the people, why don't I take you there?" Yang Zhu said with a smile.

On the side, Uncle Nangong Jing raised his eyebrows.

You Yang Zhu, when we came from the countryside, don't you know? Zhou Zhiming Hall is the ancestral temple of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the day of worship to the ancestors, you let my teacher go to see Zhou Tianzi? People are worshipping their ancestors, such a major event of the country, will they pay attention to other people? Even if an ordinary monarch comes, he won't pay attention to it.

Zhou Tianzi is approachable and often has fun with the people? You're a liar! No matter how approachable you are, at this time, it is impossible to deal with anyone.

This is digging a hole for the teacher! Want to make a fool of your teacher?

Uncle Nangong Jing was about to get angry.

Confucius smiled slightly: "Can you take me to Mingtang?" ”

"I can send you to the front, but I'm afraid that you, Confucius, will be ...... by Zhou Tianzi Tianwei at that time!" Yang Zhu said with a smile.

"Then, I'm tired of you leading the way!" Confucius didn't care.

"Are you really going to Mingtang?" Yang Zhu was surprised.

"What? Is there a problem? Kong Qiu looked at Yang Zhu.

Yang Zhu frowned, looked at Confucius strangely, and finally showed a chuckle: "It's okay, you want to go yourself!" ”

"Teacher!" Uncle Nangong Jing suddenly said anxiously.

"You first find a place to live in Luoyi City, and Madame can go with me!" When you settle in, come to me! Confucius said solemnly.

"Confucius, the place to live in the city, we have prepared!" Yang Zhu suddenly frowned.

"No need, in Luoyi City, there is also an inn opened by the family surnamed Zi, I have here the token given by the Song Kingdom to Doctor Xu, the surname of the son of the world, see the order, there will be some arrangements!" Confucius shook his head.

"But ......!" Yang Zhu was suddenly anxious.

If Confucius doesn't go with him, this is considered a loss of his reception, in case the teacher blames ......!

"Please!" Confucius didn't say much and smiled slightly.

Confucius also understood Yang Zhu's attitude.

Look down on yourself! Since you look down on yourself, you don't need to live in your place, turn back, and find some customs to make fun of yourself, and you are not here to find abuse.

"Well, Confucius, please!" Yang Zhu's eyes changed for a while, and finally nodded.

Yang Zhu led the way, and the guards at the city gate naturally did not dare to investigate.

After all, Yang Zhu is one of Lao Tzu's proud disciples, who would dare to be embarrassed when he came out to greet a guest in person this time?

Lao Tzu's fame in the Great Zhou is indeed huge, and in Luoyi, it has an irreplaceable position. Its students, naturally, are also rising.

Yang Zhu led the way, and Confucius and Qi Guanchi soon came to the land of Mingtang.

Sure enough, a huge sacrifice was being prepared at this moment. The Quartet is heavily guarded, and countless descendants surnamed Ji have returned from the Quartet to participate in this sacrifice.

The strict guards are only outsiders, but for Yang Zhu, no one has checked the guards.

Soon, the group passed through the layers of guards and actually reached the innermost.

Vaguely saw, a large number of officials, surrounded a man in a red robe in the center, the man was wearing a flat sky crown, and his figure was extremely burly. A sense of luxury emanated. From a distance, a qi machine locked the sky and the vast qi number golden dragon seemed to have a monstrous majesty.

From a distance, there is a feeling that the world is luxurious and luxurious.

"That one, that is Zhou Tianzi, who is soft-spoken and can't get close, Confucius, your letter, do you want to send it yourself?" Yang Zhu said with a smile.

Let Confucius pass by himself?

Qi Guan's red brows furrowed slightly, this Yang Zhu is really not a good person, even if he is not sensible, he understands that the sacrificial ceremony, how can he trespass at will?

Confucius glanced at Yang Zhu and showed a chuckle, but he understood Yang Zhu's intentions.

Is this a disgrace for yourself?

Yang Zhu was ordered by Lao Tzu to come to receive him, naturally he would not let himself have trouble, from the previous smooth road, Yang Zhu still has a great face in Luoyi.

He trespassed on Zhou Tianzi's sacrificial ceremony, collided with Zhou Tianzi, and was punished by Zhou Tianzi and the ministers, Yang Zhu stood up again to intercede for himself. Take this to save face?

Of course, I have already come here, and if I don't go because I am afraid, it will be even more humiliating?

At this moment, no matter whether Kong Qiu goes or not, he is in Yang Zhu's trap, is this to give himself a dismount?

"Oh, that's it, thank you!" Kong Qiu smiled slightly.

As he spoke, Kong Qiu walked towards Zhou Tianzi's location, and Qi Guanchi on the side naturally followed.

"Are you really going to ......?" Yang Zhu raised his eyebrows.

Although Yang Zhu was able to save Confucius, he thought that Confucius could see the situation in front of him and bow his head, why did he really go?

Yang Zhu's face was slightly ugly, but when he thought that Confucius would be counted down by Zhou Tianzi and the ministers, he suddenly showed a sneer. Get ready to sit and watch Kong Qiu lose face.

At the same time, the library of Luoyi.

Lao Tzu gently put down the bamboo slip.

"Teacher, what's wrong?" A student stepped forward.

"Yang Zhu? Although the understanding and heart are excellent, they are too radical and too public! How many times have I told him, Taoism pays attention to the rule of inaction, go with the flow, and don't look at anyone, but he ...... it, turn around, and let him think about it! Lao Tzu said in a flat tone.

"Huh? Be! The student in front of him nodded blankly.

However, the teacher spoke, Yang Zhu must have done something wrong.

As Lao Tzu continued to look at the bamboo slips, the student quickly walked out of the main hall.

"I've seen Senior Brother Lieyukou!" A group of Lao Tzu students saluted.

"Where is Yang Zhu?" Lie Yukou asked in a deep voice.

"Senior Brother Yang Zhu? He is in the south of the city, and he is on duty today to wait for Confucius! One student thought for a moment.

"Is Confucius coming?" Lie Yukou's expression moved, and he understood why the teacher was angry.

--------------

Luoyi, the land of Mingtang!

Yang Zhu stared at Confucius in the distance, ready to wait for the opportunity to step forward to 'break the siege'!

Confucius took Qi Guanchi and walked to the center of the square.

Sure enough, a group of officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty and descendants surnamed Ji here were all dressed up for the sacrifice, and suddenly a man and woman dressed in ordinary clothes appeared, and naturally they cast curious glances.

"Who are you?" A big Zhou official's eyes widened.

After all, these Great Zhou officials are in charge of sacrifices, and they are naturally clear to the visitors, these two people are not among the descendants of the surname Ji, where did they come from?

"Protect the Son of Heaven!" Another official exclaimed.

"Who are you?"

"Someone!"

………………

…………

……

Suddenly, several officials screamed when they found the abnormality, and even called out the guards in the distance, Confucius and his wife, who were about to be interrogated and reprimanded.

In the distance, Yang Zhu clenched his fists, ready to step forward at any time, follow Confucius, and then report to Zhou Tianzi, who is Lao Tzu's guest, and then 'rescue' the frightened Confucius couple.

Yang Zhu had already thought of all the next pictures, looking at the guards rushing not far away, showing a smug expression.

But he saw that in the center of the Great Zhou officials, Zhou Tianzi heard the restlessness and suddenly turned his head to look at Confucius and his wife. But he showed a look of surprise.

"Is that you? I'm still looking for you, how did you find it? Zhou Tianzi suddenly showed a burst of joy.

The surprise of that scene made the Da Zhou official who was about to reprimand Kong Qiu suddenly feel like he was stuck, and swallowed all the rebukes that came to his mouth.

The guards who rushed in, with a wave of their hands from some officials, all retreated.

Although I don't know how Zhou Tianzi knew these two, from Zhou Tianzi's attitude, it is certain that these two people are definitely not here to make trouble, even if they are here to make trouble, Zhou Tianzi's surprise will not be spoiled by anyone.

"Lu Guo Kongqiu, I've seen Zhou Tianzi!" Kong Qiu bowed slightly.

Qi Guanchi also bowed with Kongqiu.

"Hahaha, Kongqiu? Your name is Kongqiu now? Okay, okay, come, come, I've been looking for you all these years, but it's easy to find you! Come! Zhou Tianzi pulled Kong Qiu and was about to go to the side hall to rest and talk for a while.

The sacrifice has not officially begun, there is still time.

However, this scene made Yang Zhu in the distance look dazed.

I wanted to lose face with Confucius, but Confucius didn't lose face, did I become a clown and be embarrassed?
