Seeing someone coming, Confucius raised his head and looked at the comer. Seeing that it was Fang Jishi and the musician, he laughed silly.

After an afternoon and an evening of reading, Confucius at this time had two big eyes left. The whole person seems to be thinner and taller than before.

"You're not hungry, are you? You don't want to eat, huh? Fang Jishi said angrily.

"Hungry! Hungry! Hehehe......" Confucius smirked again.

Talking! He habitually reached for the food on his plate. Outcome! Nothing.

Last night! Under the orders of Fang Jishi, the guards prepared enough for Confucius to eat for three people. A plate of pancakes, a plate of paste, and a piece of horse meat.

Confucius read until late at night, and when he was a little tired from standing there, he brought the book to his desk, sat there cross-legged, and grabbed the pancake and nibbled on it while reading. I was so hungry that I picked up the plate and ate the plate of paste.

Afterward! He nibbled on horse meat and pancakes on the other. He was not full until all the food was eaten.

By the time he found that he had eaten all the food and was not yet full, it was already dawn.

"Do you still like to study the Zhou Rite?" Chang Hong threw the bamboo slip in his hand on the desk and asked.

"Smack!" The bamboo slips made a "pop" sound.

Visible! At this time, Chang Hong still despised Confucius very much, and he despised it in his heart.

"Confucius is in the country of Lu and has already entered the Taimiao to take office. Lu Guo came to the important guests, and most of them were arranged by him to greet the VIPs. When the monarchs and ministers of Qi came to Lu State, they all arranged the etiquette by him......"

Fang Jishi took the opportunity to introduce on the side.

At this time, Confucius smirked twice and lowered his head to read again.

"Learning etiquette can't save the world! What kind of etiquette do you learn? Courtesy! It's just a norm of behavior, just to teach those who are stupid! Restrain the bad guys! Learning etiquette is not a profound recipe for salvation! ……”

Chang Hong also wanted to take the opportunity to say a few words to enlighten Confucius who was obsessed. But? When he saw that Confucius had gone to study again, he didn't say any more.

If no one else hears it, what's the point of you going on? If it doesn't work, it's better not to say it.

Confucius did not ignore Chang Hong, and did not take Chang Hong's words as the wind in his ears. But! He was too devoted.

In the ancient books of the Zhou Library, he finally found the source of the rite and the purpose and meaning of the rite. The doubts in his heart are also slowly being solved. At this time, Fang Jishi and Chang Hong came to him and asked him to go to dinner, but his heart had not yet come out of the book. So! He looked a little silly.

"You still haven't eaten?" Fang Jishi asked patiently.

Confucius raised his head again, looked at Fang Jishi with some puzzlement, and said, "Eat!" Dine! Eat naturally! ”

"Then you get up and eat! We are waiting for you to have breakfast together! ”

"Oh! Oh! ”

"Since I came to Luoyi and came to the Zhou Library, I have time to read! What's the hurry? Nothing can be rushed! Chang Hong also said on the side.

"Oh! Oh! ”

Confucius said "oh" twice, and then he came back to his senses, put down the bamboo slip, and prepared to stand up.

It's time for that! Confucius realized that he could no longer stand up because he had been sitting cross-legged for too long.

"You?" Fang Jishi said angrily, ready to reach out to help him.

Seeing this, one of the guards stepped forward to help Confucius up.

"I'm going to use the latrine! Hurry up, hurry up! I can't hold it back! "After Confucius was helped up, he realized that he not only had to pee, but also!

There was urine coming before, and he held it. There's coming, and he's holding it too. Outcome! Because I was too focused on reading, I finally overcame reason and forgot all the feces and urine.

Right now! The whole body is moving, and the feeling of feces and urine is all out. And! I couldn't hold it anymore.

Another guard stepped forward, and the two guards joined forces to carry Confucius, whose legs had not yet recovered, to the latrine.

"Hmm!" Chang Hong sighed again, walked out of the Zhou Zang room, and went to the place to eat.

Fang Jishi also shook his head, I don't know what to say?

Our Teacher Kong, the future saint, is now virtuous!

Of course! This virtue is good virtue! A person's concentration on learning is worth learning from.

It's just that! The research of Confucius made Chang Hong feel disdainful.

If you have the wrong outlook on life, your research direction and your interests can only be for your own amusement! It's not much good for humanity.

After following Lao Tzu for so long, Chang Hong has accepted Lao Tzu's preaching and transformed into a "philosopher".

Lao Tzu said: If a person does not understand the meaning of life, does not know what a person is, does not know the source and destination of a person, this person lives in vain, and will only waste the earth's resources......

Who is Lao Tzu?

Fang Jishi walked at the end, and when he passed near the latrine, he heard a "poof" sound from a distance, and Confucius's voice was complimentary, which may be a "three-pronged approach" of fart and feces and urine. Then! A stench came in.

Of course! It's not really a smell, it's Fang Jishi's self-feeling, instinctive reaction, thinking that a smell has come over.

Quickly walked out of the Zhou Zang Room and came to the "restaurant". Chang Hong was already seated in his seat, looking at him and laughing. Nature! Not a joke square cornerstone, but! Still laughing at Confucius's embarrassment.

Chang Hong's entourage brought seats, spread them aside, and reserved them for Confucius.

After a while, Confucius came from the latrine and went to wash again. After another while, he came over apologetically and saluted Fang Jishi and Chang Hong.

"Gotta get it!" Chang Hong waved his arm at Confucius and said, "Eat!" Dine! Don't be too rigid about the weekly ceremony, if you are too stubborn, it will become tasteless, and it will be in the situation.

What is Rite? Etiquette is just a code of conduct formulated by our ancestors, which regulates and restricts those who are uneducated, as well as those who are bad. If you take the ceremony too seriously, the weekly ceremony will be in a situation!

In today's big week, why is it 'bad etiquette'? It's because the etiquette is in the situation, and! There are many tricks. What's going on? This is also about etiquette, that is also about rules, is there still freedom in life?

You know what I mean? Learn the rites! It can't save the world! Observing the weekly rites cannot change the fate of the world. Because! Most of the princes, kings, and hereditary nobles were above the Zhou rites, and they only used the Zhou rites to restrain the ...... of others."

Seeing that Confucius was still standing there awkwardly, Chang Hong didn't say any more.

Fang Jishi saw that Teacher Chang Hong was enlightening Confucius, so he didn't make a sound.

As you can imagine! Teacher Chang Hong has learned the Tao from Lao Tzu, and has already attained the Tao and understands the relationship between etiquette and Tao.

Seeing that Chang Hong was "training" him as an elder, Confucius was not angry. He came this time to "learn the Tao." No! He came to ask Lao Tzu to enlighten him.

Because! His life has entered a period of confusion, and he doesn't know where the direction of his life is.

Father! Today's first talent in the Great Zhou.
