Confucius returned to Qufu overnight and wanted to discuss national affairs with Duke Lu and Sanhuan. Although he was ambitious, weakening the power of Sanhuan, consolidating the king's power, and then using the power of the king to promote his academic ideas in the Lu State and show his ambitions, he did not want the Lu State to perish because of this. So! His mood when he returned to Qufu City overnight was understandable and eager.

If the state of Lu is destroyed by the state of Qi because of this, or becomes a vassal state of the state of Qi, then! He, Kongqiu, will become a sinner in the country of Lu.

Back in Qufu City, it was already midnight, and Lu Palace couldn't enter. On the Ji Mansion side, it is also inconvenient to go over. Confucius had no choice but to go home and sit alone in the living room sulking and frustrated. His square face was already full of wrinkles, but after such a hurry, the wrinkles became more and deeper.

In one night, Confucius lost at least a few pounds.

When Qi Guanshi saw the face of Confucius coming back, he naturally didn't dare to speak. Silently called for washing water and asked her husband to wash. I went to prepare the tea again, brought it and set it aside.

When Kong Li saw the face of his father coming back, he naturally hid from afar. Dad didn't sleep until dawn since he came back, and he has been hiding far away to accompany him, choking in his heart.

Fang Qin learned that everything was provoked by his own brother Fang Zhong, so he naturally didn't dare to show his face in front of his father-in-law, for fear of being scolded for this.

Furthermore! For so many years, she has not given birth to the Confucian family, and she also has some psychological obstacles psychologically, and she dare not show her face in front of Confucius.

Such a big incident happened, Qi Guan's clan, Fang Qin, Kong Li, and the students in the school already knew about it. Right now! Everyone was terrified, and they didn't know what the fate of Confucius was. Will they be killed, will everyone else be killed because of this?

After Fang Jishi returned to Qufu City, he did not go to Confucius's house, but went home directly. He didn't want to go to Confucius's house and cause chaos to their family. Furthermore! At this time, he already knew the seriousness of the matter.

If Confucius was punished for this, he would also be implicated.

Although Fang Zhong had merit in this matter, Fang Zhong's credit could not save him. Because! In his early years, he severed the father-son relationship with Fang Zhong's side. So! Even if Fang Zhong protects them, they will be punished.

Furthermore! If Sanhuan's people wanted to punish Fang Zhong, they would be able to find an excuse to kill Fang Zhong. Because! Fang Zhong had disobeyed the order before and prevented Confucius from falling into the three capitals. He didn't just stop Confucius from falling into the three capitals, but! Not obeying the king's command is a rebellion!

Because! Confucius went to the three capitals in the name of the king. So! If someone wants to kill you, they can also find a reason.

In this feudal dynasty, there is no rule of law and fairness at all, and it is entirely up to the king and those in power to have the final say. The words spoken by kings and authorities are laws and decrees!

Fang Jishi returned to his home in the countryside overnight, and to his surprise: the two concubines, Fang Shu, Fang Jian, daughter-in-law, son-in-law and others, none of them slept, and the family sat in the dark living room in fear, as if waiting for death, waiting for the arrangement of fate.

During the day, Fang Shu went to Qufu City and basically inquired about things clearly. In the face of such a thing, he has no opinion, and he does not know how the god of fate will arrange it.

Anyway! Confucius was inseparable from this matter. Even if the army of Qi did not invade and did not attack Lu, Confucius became a figure on the cusp.

Imagine! Confucius had an accident, can their family not be unlucky?

In this era of joint sin, all those who have something to do with it are subject to joint sin.

Seeing that Fang Jishi was back, the family immediately cried silently.

"Woo woo woo ......"

"What howl?" Fang Jishi shouted angrily.

And then! I told Fang Zhong and Ji Fang about it.

Fang Zhong's mother heard that her grandson Ji Fang was very powerful, not only was she not angry, but she also had a smile on her face.

When Fang Shu's son Fang Ping heard about it, he was very unconvinced. But! He didn't show it. Fang Ping, the same year as Ji Fang, was born a little later than Ji Fang. Now he is also a big man, a little adult. His martial arts, passed down by his father and grandfather, are also very powerful.

It was only after dawn the next day that Confucius stood up and washed. He didn't wash the face wash that Qi Guan's prepared for him last night, so he sat like that for half a night.

After washing up, I sat there again after breakfast and waited for the time to pass. It was almost time for the court to go to court, so he changed into court clothes and took a carriage to Lu Palace. When he arrived at the court, he knelt down to the court as a sinner and waited for Lu Gong's punishment.

To Confucius's surprise, Duke Lu and Sanhuan's people had no intention of punishing him. Opposite! He also sat him in the seat of the Siko. After listening to his explanation, Lu Gong told him about yesterday's decision and all his actions.

After the morning was dispersed, Confucius returned. Staying on the side of Lu Palace, there is nothing to do with him. What should be done, Lu Gong and others have already done it yesterday. It doesn't matter if you do other domestic things. Furthermore! In this case, where does he still have the heart to deal with those trivial things?

Afternoon! Duke Lu sent someone over and asked him to go to Lu Palace, saying that Fang Zhong was back, and there were some things that had to be explained clearly in person.

Confucius had a hunch that Fang Zhong was a bad comer.

But! When he came to the Lu Palace, Lu Gong, Ji Huanzi and the others did not let him meet Fang Zhong.

Fang Zhong didn't want to come to receive the reward, as a Taoist, he didn't want to be on the cusp of the storm, it was very dangerous to do so. But the matter had come to this, and he had to come again. Don't come! He who disobeys the will of the king is to be put to death. Come! He was afraid that Lu Gong, Ji Huanzi and others would find trouble with him.

Because! Confucius's fall into the three must not have been hindered by him, and he had already succeeded. If Lu Gong and Ji Huanzi use this incident as a reason, say that he resists the order and kill his head. If that's the case? He came to Qufu City to receive the reward, which is tantamount to throwing himself into a net.

After thinking about it carefully, Fang Zhong thought: Since he came to throw himself into the net, he is also dead. If you don't come, it's a rebellion, and it's the same death, so it's better to come! Here it comes! It is necessary to fight for the right to live.

What if Lu Gong and Ji Huanzi really didn't kill themselves? Is it really to thank you? Isn't it?

With this thought, Fang Zhong still came.

Since it came, since it was for survival, so! Fang Zhong had to take some measures. Since everything is caused by Confucius, let Confucius bear it. We are loyal! Don't have to pay for him!

So! Fang Zhong made a move and sold Confucius.

It was precisely because Fang Zhong sold Confucius that after Confucius was called, he did not see Fang Zhong. Because! He fell out of favor. After Fang Zhong's revelation, his true form was revealed.
