Needless to say, these civilian-dressed people must be the assassination team sent by Ji Pingzi and others.

Lu Zhaogong ordered to search the bodies of these people to see if there was any evidence. The result was disappointing, and the guards said no.

In fact! A few shrewd guards knew what was going on and didn't explain the truth to Lu Zhaogong. Because! It will not be beneficial for Lu Zhaogong to track it down. So! They hid the truth.

Although the assassination team sent by Ji Pingzi and others changed into civilian clothes, if they started to investigate from the clothes of civilians, they could still chase down and find the real mastermind behind the scenes. If we continue to track it down like that, it will be a big problem. So! The shrewd guards did not pursue it anymore and concealed the truth from Lu Zhaogong.

This is enough, killing the assassination team sent by Ji Pingzi and others is enough to deter Ji Pingzi and others.

Lu is a small country, and there are not many characters who can handle it. The dozen or so assassins who killed Ji Pingzi and others were all great losses for Ji Pingzi and others. The country has a small population, so it is natural that talents are rare.

Lu Zhaogong, who successfully returned to the Lu Palace, not only was not timid, on the contrary! Just like the last time he returned to Lu Palace, he intensified his efforts and took a tough attitude towards Ji Pingzi and others.

Ji Pingzi and the others saw that Lu Zhaogong returned to the Lu Palace alive, thinking that it was the Jin Kingdom helping behind the scenes. So! I didn't dare to do anything to him.

Therefore! Lu Zhaogong, who is becoming more and more adept at using external forces, doesn't take Ji Pingzi and the others seriously, he still fights when he should collide, and it is useless for you to beg him when he should not stamp the seal.

Since this year, Lu Zhaogong has not only not been able to get along in Lu Country because of Yang Hu and other rumors, on the contrary! is becoming more and more like a monarch, with a certain prestige.

Of course! It also laid the foundation for his later fate and accelerated the time of escape.

Unable to balance the interests of all forces, and bent on turning over, the final result is conceivable.

Under the strength of Lu Zhaogong, Confucius transformed from a former "cowherd" into a petty official in the court, and could participate in the management of some state affairs. In modern language, it is equivalent to an official position such as the National People's Congress or the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.

This year, Confucius has already won some fame in establishing private schools. After a few years of study, Ah Mao and others can help their father and mother settle accounts. Under the boasting of his father, Mao and other students often flaunted their knowledge at relatives' houses. Outcome! Ah Mao and others are famous for themselves, and they also made their teacher Confucius famous.

"Huh? Did your Ah Mao learn from Kongqiu? The man asked in disbelief.

Confucius! It only spreads in a small area. On a larger scale, people still remember him as "Kongqiu".

"Kongqiu? Which hole are you talking about? Is it the same Kongqiu who used to blow the trumpet for other people's funerals? ”

"In Qufu City? And how many holes? ”

"Oh? Is that him? Kongqiu? Right now! Many people call him Confucius! ”

"Confucius! That's a small scale! He is in the country of Lu, and he is not a son! ”

"That's it! It is! Anyway! In my impression, Kong Qiu is a Confucian student! Handle funerals for other people's homes and blow trumpets. But? ……”

Look down on the identity of Confucius, but! I had to obey Confucius's talents, and continued: "He is still accomplished in music. Do you see him? Whether it's playing the trumpet or the piano, he can do it! Other than that! He is still very knowledgeable about funeral etiquette and knowledgeable! ”

"That's right! Confucius he! Now I'm a teacher! Isn't it? Ah Mao: They are the students of Confucius! This is not? Who was Ah Mao before? You still don't know? It's just a little silly, now! Ah Mao understands the courtesy. O man! It's meant to be educated! Where can adults be adults without education? Right now! I'm telling you! He's not Concho anymore! He is Confucius! Child! The next time you see him, you must call him Confucius! Otherwise? Someone will scold you behind your back! ”

"Hehehe!" The man listened and laughed inappropriately.

In his impression, Kong Qiu is Kong Qiu, a Confucian student, and will never be a son! He grew up watching Kongqiu, watching Kongqiu blow the trumpet for others, and watching Kongqiu work so diligently for other people's families......

In his impression, Confucius will always be Confucius, not Confucius.

In any case, reasonable people still believe that Ah Mao and others have become so smart because of the education of Confucius. Therefore! Most parents recognize Confucius's contributions. And because of this! Confucius's fame slowly spread.

In 525 B.C., the seventeenth year of Lu Zhaogong, Confucius enrolled more than a dozen students who lived in other places.

In fact! In 526 B.C., the sixteenth year of Lu Zhaogong, Confucius accepted five students from other places. The same! These students are boarding students.

In modern parlance, it's a boarder. It's like a child in the Yunnan-Guishan area who goes to school and has to stay. Otherwise! A day is wasted on the way to school.

Those who can send the baby to Confucius's house to stay in the family can generally have a family environment. Otherwise! I can't afford to go to school.

It is one aspect that Confucius became famous as a student, and the main aspect is because of Lu Zhaogong. After Lu Zhaogong's tough attitude, he promoted him from the position of "retainer" to the court, participated in politics, and further enhanced Confucius's reputation.

Therefore! There are more people in Qufu City who know that Confucius is very good at running a school, and they are willing to send the baby over and follow him to study.

It is for this reason! Later scholars believe that "Confucius opened a private school around this time." ”

Not really! Confucius started a private school a few years ago, but it was not famous at that time, and the students he taught were all small dolls. It is called a school, but it is actually a "kindergarten".

According to the record of "Zuo Biography": Tanzi came to the court, Confucius saw it, and learned the name of the ancient official. Lu Zhaogong was seventeen years old, and Confucius was twenty-seven years old.

Visible! This year, Confucius has officially become an official in the court of the Lu State.

That's it! Once a person is famous, he can do anything.

Confucius was on the right track in his career and achieved initial results in establishing a private school. But he has no intention of pursuing a career and is dedicated to running a school.

Another reason why Confucius didn't want to take the road of official career was that Lu Zhaogong's backer was not reliable. Although he is the king of the Lu country, he is a king who has been hollowed out after all, and he does not have much real power and not much right to speak. The risk of doing things behind such people is very great. If you don't get it right, your family will be ruined.

The current Confucius has not yet reached that realm, and he has dedicated himself to the people of Lu Zhaogong or Lu State.

If you don't serve the people as an official, your life is in danger, so it's better not to be an official.

You can serve the people without being an official, and you don't have to be an official to serve the people.

Establishing a private school and educating the next generation is also to serve the people.
