Confucius went back to the house and went to sleep, and he slept for more than a month.

In the blink of an eye, spring came, and the south wind blew in, driving away the north wind and snow and ice. As the weather warms up, everything recovers, grass sprouts green leaves from cracks in the rocks, wildflowers bloom all over the fields, and buds sprout on the willow branches by the river.

Confucius insisted on getting out of bed and walking around the room. Only when he was stronger did he walk out of the room and walk around the living room. It was only in the clear, warm weather that he stepped out of the living room and moved around the yard. Sometimes! And dance the sword.

After the spring festival, the students all returned. Those college students who graduated and went out to do things, when they heard that their husband was sick, would take the time to come and visit and bring gifts.

When the students saw Mr. dancing the sword, they all came out of the classroom one by one, watching and cheering.

"Good!"

"Beautiful!"

"Chic!"

"Floating!"

The body was a little stronger, and Confucius rode out on horseback and came to his hometown in the countryside. He didn't go to the house of his eldest brother Fang Jishi, but! Went to the river.

Standing on the embankment and looking at the rushing water, Confucius began to feel sad again. No! It's anxious.

He didn't want his life to pass like this, and he didn't want his doctrine and ideas to be ruined like this. If you can't use it in Lu Country, then go to the Great Zhou World!

Oh, yes! Why don't I learn from Mr. Lao Tzu and go to the Great Zhou to preach?

There is no place to stay here, there is a place to stay here. I still don't believe in Confucius, I can't find a Ming monarch in the Great Zhou world? In the country of Lu! Duke Lu is a faint monarch, and Ji Huanzi is a faint minister. Don't? Is this the case in all the vassal states of the world?

Looking at the surging river, Confucius's thoughts had already gone far away with the river.

In the Ji Mansion in Qufu City, the personal guard came to Ji Huanzi again and curry favor.

"Kong Qiu's illness has recovered, today I went to the river in my hometown in the countryside, and I stood by the river for a long time!"

"Oh?" Ji Huanzi squinted at this personal guard, and couldn't help but feel a burst of contempt.

Today's Ji Huanzi is no longer so interested in the singers of Qi Country.

Because! The singer of Qi has slept with Lu Guojunchen and others, and she is no longer the body she was at the beginning. So! Ji Huanzi, who usually watches singing and dancing performances, no longer does that kind of thing with these singers. If you do that kind of thing, you will hand it over to the guards and others, and become the welfare of the guards and others.

Whoever of you wants to do it, go for it!

He doesn't care, but everyone else is a treasure. If it is rewarded to a subordinate official from another place, Nima Di! People were so moved that they were so moved. Looking at the virtue of these people, Ji Huanzi was also drunk. No! He got psychological satisfaction from contempt.

In terms of state affairs, the army of Qi stationed on the border of Lu has already left and joined forces with Wei to attack Jin and challenge the authority of the Jin overlord. The danger posed by the fall of the three capitals of the Lu State has disappeared. The walls of the two capitals that have fallen have been restored to their original state, and! Reinforcement. After the winter, the newly built walls were not destroyed, and basically they were fine.

The country has a sense of security again, Ji Huanzi is also in a good mood, and he can sit back and relax and enjoy life again.

"What are you going to do?" The personal guard flattered again.

"How?" Ji Huanzi asked indifferently.

"Kongqiu?"

"Kongqiu? How can he? ”

Ji Huanzi thought to himself: Kongqiu's Si Kou is basically dismissed like this, if I don't urge him, he is embarrassed to treat himself as a Si Kou and come to work in Lu Palace? What else can he do with Kongqiu? He is a literati, and he has no troops in his hands, what can he do to me Ji Huanzi? Can he still do the opposite? If he can rebel, he will be able to rebel with the army of Qi when he falls into Sandu. Isn't it?

"What can he do if not? Be? ”

"What is it?"

"It's his reputation!"

"Fame? What is Kongqiu's reputation? Ji Huanzi asked puzzled.

I thought: What other reputation does Concussus have? He fell into Sandu, and he slapped himself in the face, what else could he do? Even if he has a reputation, it is a notorious reputation, a reputation of disgrace!

"He doesn't have a good reputation, but in the Great Zhou world, his reputation is still very big! He has no reputation, but his students blow his teacher like something! Saying that he is a good cow is better than a good cow is ......"

"Hahaha......" When Ji Huanzi heard this, he couldn't help laughing and laughing disdainfully.

"Doctor Ji!" The personal guard's face changed, he looked like a servant, and said seriously: "I don't know if I should say a sentence or not?" ”

"Speak!"

"Now there are rumors outside, saying that our Lu country will not use people, but Confucius is so talented that our Lu country does not use it? Say that our country of Lu is doomed to perdition......"

"Bold!" Ji Huanzi's face changed and he shouted.

"Yes! This this is this! The personal guard pretended to be scared, but he knew that his words worked.

"That's not what I said, huh? Didn't the Lu people say it? This is what the people of the world say? Those who came to Lu country, when they ate in wine shops and inns, they all talked about it like this, saying that our Lu country treats good people as bad people and does not abide by the weekly etiquette. Moreover! They also know about the beautiful women sent by Qi State, including! Include! Includes ......"

What's included? Including Ji Huanzi, Lu Gong and other ministers all slept with the singer of Qi to do that.

Ji Huanzi naturally knew what the guard was going to say, and stretched out his hand to stop him: "Since Kong Qiu is a talent, then whoever wants him to invite him to go!" Anyway, our Lu country will not reuse him, and if we don't kill him, we will already tolerate him to the maximum! ……”

"Doctor Ji! But? If we don't use Kong Qiu all the time, and Kong Qiu stays in Lu Country and doesn't leave, or no one invites us, then it's not enough, let Doctor Ji, you and Lu Gong gossip behind the backs of the world? Isn't it? ”

"This?" When Ji Huanzi heard this, he immediately froze.

Oh, yes! If Confucius had stayed in the country of Lu, wouldn't he have been gossiped about? Say that you Lu Guo does not reuse talents. But talents like Confucius are not good for us! He benefits the country and the people, but he is not good for us hereditary nobles? If I believed in him, where would I still have such luxury? I believe in him, I will have a hard life in the future, am I more stupid than me?

Come to think of it! Ji Huanzi was thought of by himself again, no! I was amused by Confucius's thoughts and practices.

I thought: Is it me Ji Huanzi who is stupid or is he Kong Qiu stupid? Or does he Kong Qiu treat me Ji Huanzi and others as fools? Your set of benevolence, righteousness, and etiquette should fool the common people!

No! You can't fool ordinary people! Because! Everyone wants to survive, and they all want their lives to be better. After telling you about benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, and music, who will give them food?

Eating is the big deal! Survival is the priority!

"Doctor Ji! Why don't we do this? The personal guard said, lowered his voice, put his mouth to Ji Huanzi's ear, and whispered.

Ji Huanzi listened and nodded.

Forthwith! He took out a piece of close-fitting jade from his bosom and handed it to the guard.

"Go! Give it to Concuss! ”
