Librarian is a very quiet job.

In addition to organizing books on weekdays, I just read books.

As the Son of Heaven, Zhou Tianzi naturally has his own library and an administrator.

In the nineteenth year of the king, Li Er, who was responsible for guarding the history of the Tibetan room, received a letter.

The letters were made of paper that made Luoyang paper expensive, and it was very face-saving here in Luoyi.

Li Yunze only sells books and not paper, and this kind of magical paper has long been spread outside the Lu Kingdom.

There are a lot of words in this book and the official book, but the ink on those books can't be washed off, and there is too little paper available in the real sense.

"History under the column."

A colleague stepped forward and said with a smile: "The phobic master of the Lu State has written again?" ”

What many people don't know is that in fact, Li Er and Kong Qiu have known each other for a long time.

When Li Er was in his thirties, he went to visit friends in Lu after being dismissed because of the traditional exclusion of the powerful here in Luoyang.

This kind of thing is a daily operation in Luoyang, because there are too many nobles here, but there are only these places and official positions, and they are not enough at all.

So even if he is Li Er's librarian, he is regarded as a fragrant glutton.

In history, Su Qin said, 'Let me have Luoyang Erqingtian, and An Nengpei Six Kingdoms are sealed' is a true portrayal of the so-called aristocrats who were squeezed around Luoyang in this era, and the crazy involution.

Born noble, what is the use of the surname Ji?

Unfortunately, not long after Lear's visit, that friend died.

Li Er presided over the funeral of his friend, after all, he was a Qing nobleman in the imperial court, and he had a big face.

And at that time, Kong Qiu also went, to help with the funeral.

That's how the two met.

Later, Luoyang squeezed out Li Er's nobles and made a mess of the work, and Zhou Tianzi invited Li Er back.

After that, Li Yunze came.

took over Kong Qiu's identity, so naturally he also had to take over his connections.

So when Li Yunze received the bamboo letter sent by Li Er from Luoyang, he was surprised that the two had crossed paths so early.

After reading the letter, Li Er said with a smile, "Zhongni has traveled all over the world, and has set off from the Jin Kingdom to the south to Luoyi, and I will be a good hospitality." ”

With that, Li Er solemnly took out a blank piece of paper from the cabinet and spread it on the bookcase.

Seeing the blank paper, the colleagues around him were full of envy.

Li Yunze's blank paper is not only sold, but it is given as a gift.

He knows what it means to be scarce, so only two people have accepted this gift.

One is Yan Ying of Qi State, and the other is Li Er here in Luoyang.

Yan Ying is the prime minister of Qi, so naturally he will not be short of money.

And Li Er is a world-famous celebrity, and it is even more impossible to sell the precious gifts sent by his friends for money.

not only further improved their reputation, but also made Yan Ying and Li Er have a lot of face, and naturally they have an excellent relationship.

Blank paper is indeed inexpensive, and the cost is even lower outrageously.

But the problem is that no one will do it in this era.

Tulips can be sold at sky-high prices when this thing is hyped. Ahem, anyway, the paper at this time is extremely famous, even the princes can not hope for it.

Li Er wrote a letter to call for friends, introducing friends he recognized to Kongqiu.

After all, it's really not easy to come all the way to make a trip.

The distance of this era, that is the literal meaning, is almost impossible to go to such a far place in a lifetime.

When friends meet, especially pen pals who are thousands of miles away, it is basically a lifetime when they don't see each other a few times.

When you have the opportunity, of course, you have to take it seriously.

After writing the letter and arranging for it to be delivered, Lear returned home and began to prepare for the arrival of the guests.

It's just that when Li Yunze really arrived, Li Er was dumbfounded.

He raised his eyes and looked at the crowd that was almost standing on the street in front of his house, and asked Li Yunze uncertainly, "These are all your disciples?" ”

"Well, they're all Confucian students."

Li Yunze stretched out his hand and motioned to Sun Wu and Zilu, "These two are my official disciples. ”

Li Er first looked at Sun Wu and Zilu, who were saluting him, and then looked embarrassed.

There was no problem in entertaining Li Yunze, and it was no problem to entertain two more disciples, but I never thought that Li Yunze would actually bring hundreds or thousands of students.

It's no longer a question of whether you can live or not, let alone his house, even if the whole street is counted, it can't fit so many people.

These days are all bungalows, but there are no buildings built on top of each other to stuff people.

Li Yunze naturally knew about Li Er's embarrassment, after all, he had promised to entertain before, but now he couldn't entertain.

gave Sun Wu a look, and Sun Wu immediately stepped forward and saluted, "Zhuxia Shi, the boys are just here to meet the seniors, and we already have a place to live." ”

"Huh?"

Now it was Li Er's turn to wonder, "There are so many of you, where can you live?" You can't go to the palace, right? ”

In this Luoyi City, it is estimated that only the palace can live with so many people.

"We have already negotiated with the army and borrowed the barracks."

The military camp in Luoyang is very large, after all, there used to be the sixth division of the Son of Heaven.

Although it can't afford to raise the Sixth Division now, the remaining military camp is still there.

Li Er nodded first, and then asked, "How can I accept it?" ”

Sun Wu responded with a smile, "Without him, the money is in place." ”

There are too many nobles here in Luoyang, but there are too few resources.

In this case, as long as there is money to be made, then everything is negotiable.

As long as the money is in place, let alone the barracks, the palace can also be discussed.

Sun Wu and Zilu led a group of students to meet Li Er in batches, and then left to rest in the barracks.

And Li Yunze followed Li Er into his home.

For Li Er, Li Yunze showed real respect.

The so-called hundred schools of thought in the Spring and Autumn Period seemed to be full of flowers, but in fact, most of them were nonsense, and they all quickly disappeared into the garbage heap of history.

In addition to the practical schools, such as Legalism, Moism, Peasants, etc., have developed, and among the other schools of thought and Taoism, only Taoism has really survived.

Confucianism is not mentioned, and Confucianism in history is purely inherited by relying on crowd tactics and shouting and killing.

That's right, at the beginning of Confucianism, it was also shouting and shouting and killing.

There is no way, in the era of martial arts, those who don't shout and kill will have no future.

When it comes to Taoism, its representative figure is the person in front of him.

Li Yunze has seen the Romance of the Gods, and he has personally experienced the journey of traveling through countless worlds.

The world is too big to fit, who knows if there is a world where fairies and demons are rampant?

In case the person in front of him is the humane god who destroys the world and destroys the world, if he makes something happen, it is like giving Li Er a few big pockets, and then burning the Tao Te Ching. Uh, haven't written it yet.

Wouldn't it be troublesome to get the attention of Hakkeinomiya?

Therefore, Li Yunze's attitude is very good.

Li Er invited Li Yunze to dinner, and during the meal, Li Yunze asked casually, "I don't know if there are green cows in the history of the pillar?" ”

"Green Cow?"

Li Er was puzzled at first, then shook his head and said, "There are no green cows." ”

The cattle in Luoyang City, except for those who pull carts, the rest are for Zhou Tianzi to eat.

After all, only the Son of Heaven is qualified to eat cows.

The so-called hierarchy can be said to be clearly arranged here by Zhou Tianzi.

Eat everything for you to divide three, six, nine and so on.

Hearing Li Er say that he didn't have a green cow, Li Yunze, who was still a little nervous before, suddenly felt much more relaxed.

He smiled and picked up the wine lord and gestured to Li Er.

After some time, the friends that Li Er found gradually gathered in Luoyang City.

Li Er introduced Li Yunze to them, and everyone's first reaction after hearing about it was 'Kong Zhongni who slashed the divine arrow of the Chu State?' ’

This era is martial, because the countries that are not martial are all destroyed.

Because of the general trend, even if you are a scholar, you will put the value of force in the first place.

Of course, after all, they are all academics, and after the shock at the beginning, they soon began to sit down and discuss.

Those who can be invited by Li Er are naturally capable people.

They quote scriptures, dissect human nature, expound morality, reveal their opinions and beliefs, and then, unsurprisingly, quarrel.

Li Yunze was not interested in this kind of quarrel at all, so he just sat on the sidelines and watched quietly.

Li Er was surprised when he saw him like this, "Zhongni, you don't have anything to say?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone around him who participated in the debate looked at him, and the disciples of the various families on the periphery stretched their necks and waited.

Li Yunze first put down the wine lord in his hand, followed his eyes to look around the people, and first filled the force before speaking.

"What you are talking about is nothing more than one thing, and that is how to manipulate people's hearts."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar all around.

Naturally, some people immediately asked, "Why did the master say this?" ”

"I've already said that you say so much, and you still want everyone to follow the so-called norms that you came up with for yourself." Li Yunze spread his hands: "Why do people want to listen to you?" Why can't you be yourself? ”

Except for a few pragmatic schools, the rest of the schools of thought are talking about the Tao.

In other words, they all want to shape the people of the world into what they want them to be.

"People are different, even siblings have their own ideas."

Li Yunze's voice echoed in everyone's ears: "Forcibly putting them under a norm is just your selfish motives. ”

"Hmph."

When people are accused face to face, some of the dissatisfied people are, of course, "Then what do you think?" ”

"Takami doesn't have it, it's just an ordinary plan."

Li Yunze smiled faintly, "At the beginning of people, there is no sex. The future is good or evil, both in the environment and in the human being. ”

"Confucianism does not do anything that forcibly instills various ideas in them."

Someone else asked, "Then what do you do as a Confucian?" You can't just learn how to eat and sleep, right? ”

The provocative words did not arouse everyone's echo, and everyone's eyes were focused on Li Yunze.

In this regard, Li Yunze just said plainly.

"What Confucianism teaches is the ability to survive."
