"My advice is: keep traveling! It's good for you! You should also feel that you are indeed living in the small world you have created, and you imagine the outside world too beautifully. Don't you feel it? Your set is getting worse and worse. If you don't leave the country of Lu, you may not believe it, and you won't believe it no matter what others say. This is coming out, you know?

I'm not the only one I'm talking about you! Fang Zhong said you! Even the shopkeeper of Song Guokai Inn said you. It's all at this time, and your heart is still unconvinced. Isn't it? Don't you believe this being an official in the country? Wei Gong didn't give you real power at all. To put it bluntly, I didn't reuse you at all, I just treated you as an ornament. Let the world say how he reuses talents. You're just someone else's decoration.

Isn't it? Gongzi Ying also said it just now, didn't he? Don't say we're Taoists, we all speak the same way. Don't? Doesn't that make sense? Isn't it? If it makes sense, you have to listen! Don't go your own way anymore! I think! Zigong's head is better! More receptive. He ran around in the Great Zhou world and saw a lot. ”

"Big brother? So what do you say? What should I do? I? I have already served as an official in the defense of the country, and I have received my salary. I? ”

"Do you need any of these?"

"This?" Confucius thought for a while and said, "I have a school at home, and I usually have supplies for students, so I don't have a lot of money. ”

"Since you are not short of money, why do you want to stay in the court of the country to get a spare time? Since he has no real power, he is just an ornament of Wei Gong, so why be reluctant? ”

"This?" Confucius hesitated.

"Do you still hope for the defense of the country?"

"Me?"

"Do you still fantasize about realizing your political ambitions in the country?"

"This?" He was really unwilling to give up politics.

"I've already discussed it with Gongzi Ying, your current approach is very dangerous! At that time, Zigong was also in person, and you will ask Yigong in the future, is that the case? Hear about you! You often take the opportunity to recommend your students to Wei Gong. Isn't it? ”

"Yes!"

"It's understandable that you would recommend one, two, or a few students. If you blindly recommend your students to be officials in Weiguo, it is easy to arouse the suspicion of Wei Gong and the dissatisfaction of other ministers. Have you thought about it? If you recommend your students, do others want to recommend their cronies?

So! When you recommend students, you invisibly offend other ministers. Isn't it? And also! What does the Wei Guild think? If someone takes the opportunity to speak ill of you, you will be completely finished, and you will not be able to get along in the defense of the country.

Have you thought about it? You recommend your students out of good intentions, to help defend the country and make good suggestions, to help Wei Gong govern and defend the country, and to let students give full play to their talents. But what if someone frames you in front of Wei Gong, saying that you are a close confidant of Wei Guo, and then seize the power of Wei Guo?

Taking advantage of this opportunity, they reminded Wei Gong again, saying that you fell into Sandu in Lu State. If that's really the case? You say you? Can you still mix in Weiguo? ”

"Big brother! Say no more! I know! I get it! Confucius interrupted. Yesterday! Zigong had already told him all this, and he understood.

The water in officialdom is too deep for him, a person with little social experience, can wade. If one is not careful, there is a risk of drowning.

"Did you understand what I said?" Fang Jishi asked uneasily.

"I understand!"

"Do you want to listen to it anymore, or do you really understand?"

"Big brother! I really got it! Yesterday! Zigong has already told me everything when he came back. Moreover! He also said that I was beaten! Confucius said truthfully.

"Oh!" Fang Jishi nodded and answered.

"Big brother? That? ”

"Don't you have a letter of appointment issued by Ji Huanzi now, asking you to come to Da Zhou Tianxia to give a lecture? Can you go and say goodbye to Gong Wei? Isn't it? You have to go to other countries to see more, experience more, and feel the life of the people. Live in the real world, not in the small world you created! If you're still like that! You still can't experience the suffering of the people, the life of different people!

You can't experience different people's lives, you can't feel what other people really think. Everyone's ideas are different, and people in different professions have different ideas. People of different ages also have different ideas. You don't experience and feel what other people think, you just want others to accept your ideas, you say? Can others accept it?

You say that you want to deny yourself, but the people of the world generally believe that self-denial is tantamount to suffering oneself and achieving those who are selfish. Don't you think? This theory you put forward is wrong, or rather one-sided.

Isn't it? You look at the world from your point of view, and you look at the world and be a person from the perspective of catering to the management society. And the world! Most of them look at the world and how to behave from the perspective of survival. Survival is fundamental, living happily and freely, living a prosperous life, and living without work is the pursuit of the world, the instinct of human nature. You said? Can you make others self-denial, and will others be willing? Chaos in society? What's wrong with them? Isn't it?

You care about the society and the people in the world, but others only care about yourself. Most people only care about themselves. You said? Do you ask others to care about society and the world like you? Isn't it? ”

"Yes, yes, yes! Eldest brother! ”

"You don't have to verbally promise so quickly! My in-laws! You have to accept it in your heart, not say yes and don't accept it in your heart! Don't you say how people in the world have such low ideological consciousness? Can't see that? In fact! No one in the world is stupider than you! I'm telling you! My in-laws!

Imagine? If no one can protect himself, how can he save the world? If you want to save the world, you better learn to survive first! You can't live yourself, you let others learn from you, and you suffer yourself by self-denial, do you treat others as stupid? They have a happy life, so why should they give up their happy life to live a hard life? Isn't it?

Fang Zhong also told you before, didn't he? He won't believe you. Because! Your set will not bring him a happy life. Opposite! It also ruined the happy life that he and his children and grandchildren had in front of him. Isn't it? If you can guarantee it! In a few years, the whole world will be liberated, then! He is willing to give up his aristocratic life and listen to you.

And in fact! He is not alone in opposition! All the nobles will be against you! Do you understand? My in-laws! Don't hurt anyone anymore! Because of you! The lives of my whole family are in the hands of Ji Huanzi! My in-laws! Wake up!

Why didn't I come to see you? I'll tell you the truth! I'm here to keep my distance from you! I'm afraid that you will toss some moth again, and it will affect my family......"
