Chapter 359: Actually, It's Too Poor

"I ......" Qingyue was a little stunned for a while, and then smiled brightly, as if the ice and snow were beginning to melt and the snow lotus was just released, "That's good, I like the drizzling appearance, the way the fog is thick and the sea of clouds is rolling." Well...... The larger the range, the better, and it is better to envelop the entire Asahi country. ”

"Young master, young master, Xiang'er likes the appearance of heavy snowfall, goose feathers and heavy snow all over the sky. "Xiang'er has also gone bad.

"Childe, I like stormy weather, and I like to see the turbid waves and winds sweeping the land. It's best to have a storm and a storm to wash the entire Asahi Kingdom!"

"I'm going to call Your Majesty. Qingyue's eyes were full of smiles, although her face was still a little "quiet".

"What is it called, Your Majesty, that is what outsiders called. Xiao Hao had a black line, who is this, waved his hand casually, and then took the lead and walked out, "Let's go, let's take a look at the situation of the trading center and see interesting things." ”

"Wow, wow, wow. Yun'er was the most lively, jumping up and down to Xiao Hao's side and pulling Xiao Hao's sleeve and not ready to relax.

Xiang'er hugged the white little fox, although her appearance was not as good as Yun'er's and her appearance was not as good as Qingyue. But I grew up with Xiao Hao since I was a child, not to mention the relationship between the two, just to say that I was influenced by Xiao Hao, so that Xiang'er has a different temperament, more like there is a little bit - intellectual beauty, although it is still a little small.

Xiang'er, who was holding the little fox, gently walked to the other side of Xiao Hao, her eyes flashing with yearning. For Yun'er and Xiang'er, they haven't traveled much since they were young, and if they have the opportunity to go out and have a look, or go to the lively trading center, it must be something worth celebrating.

At this time, Qingyue was like a real big sister, standing behind and watching the three "children" make a fuss. Although cultivators have a long lifespan and are in their 50s, it is nothing, but after all, the age is here, and Qingyue unconsciously regards Xiao Hao and the three as younger brothers and sisters. It's not bad. There was no discord between several people.

But just when Xiao Hao and the four of them were about to leave, Kong Xiang came to the door of the hall at the right time, and waited here for Xiao Hao's arrival.

"Master Kong, what are you doing?" Xiao Hao was stunned. Looking at Kong Xiang's respectful and solemn appearance, it was like a primary school student who admitted his mistake. You're a bachelor of purple qi rising, don't be so unproductive. Do you know that this makes it difficult for me to do this! Seeing Kong Xiang like this, Xiao Hao actually felt a kind of disgust in his heart!

"Your Majesty......"

"Oh, what Your Majesty, it's just a hooligan leader, you still call me Xiao Hao. ”

"Uh-uh...... Okay, Xiao Gongzi, the old man has three things to do, the first is congratulations. The second is to ask, Princess Qingyue of the 'previous dynasty' has a poor background, can Xiao Gongzi arrange to serve tea and pour water by his side? Princess Qingyue has always been lonely, can't Xiao Gongzi give this little girl a warm and warm place to live? Moreover, and Princess Qingyue is a princess of the previous dynasty after all, if Xiao Gongzi marries, he can take over the Dali royal court in name and better.

You must know that many people don't want to take refuge, but they can't get over it. If Xiao Gongzi can marry Princess Qingyue, it will be of ten minutes of significance to the future capital of Liguang City. ”

"Hmm......" Xiao Hao's nostrils exhaled, with an inexplicable taste: "What about the third point?"

Kong Xiang is a real old fox. Xiao Hao pouted his ass and probably guessed Xiao Hao's thoughts, and frowned a little for a while. But he still said it: "The third point is that Confucianism actually still has many capable officials, and Confucianism is the most orthodox and experienced. In the early stage of Xiao Gongzi's official development, everything is difficult at the beginning, and he needs a little extra support at this time. Confucianism is always on standby. ”

"Is this ...... Not for now. I think Master Kong also saw that the politics of Xuguo are all unprecedented new deals, and the past experience is not so important. And throughout history, although Confucianism has gone abroad for many well-known officials, it is the same. Confucianism also produces the most corrupt officials. ”

"But Confucianism is the most experienced official, and we can not get involved in politics, but also guide from the sidelines, just like the military staff. ”

"Master Kong, let's put it this way, Confucianism is too experienced as an official, and the richness has exceeded the scope of 'applicability', I dare not use it!

Kong Xiang was immediately stuck, thinking of all kinds of reasons for refusal, but he didn't expect that in the end it would be this: You are too capable, and I dare not use them because of your strong ability! Is this a special reason? Doesn't it mean that the stronger the ability, the better? However, Kong Xiang soon reacted, and Xiao Hao said something else: What can you do if you exceed the scope and the scope of application? Of course, it is corruption and perverting the law! Xiao Hao is now using an obscure way to say that he cannot trust Confucian officials.

This was a rod that knocked over all the people, and Kong Xiang, who reacted, suddenly trembled with anger! Speaking of which, Kong Xiang's life was not bad during this period of time. First of all, because Kong Xiang has always lived in Haizhou, he has come here since Haizhou just rose, and he also showed a model of loyal courtiers, so that Confucianism regarded Kong Xiang as the spokesperson for communication within Xuguo and Xiao Hao Group, which made Kong Xiang very surprised.

In private, Kong Xiang's activities began to intensify, after all, he was once a powerful figure in the country, and at his peak, he even grabbed the position of the imperial historian with one hand and stepped on the position of the prime minister with one foot. It's a pity that the environment of Xuguo is really different! But Kong Xiang is also extraordinary, relying on his own ability and the influence of Confucianism behind him, he has made many people feel moved -- many people believe that if Confucianism helps Xuguo, the future road of Xuguo will be broader.

It's a pity that Kong Xiang's words can't impress the real high-level of Xuguo! The real high-level of Xuguo is the Xiao family and the Li family, but these two families now all depend on Xiao Hao; even Xiao Song and Li Cheng, the two old men, believe in Xiao Hao's vision, plus the two old men are also old and sophisticated, Kong Xiang's mind can also guess that he usually either avoids or does not talk about serious things. Don't underestimate the "cheekiness" of these two old men, these are all Haizhou bandits who were smash hits back then.

In addition to the Li family and the Xiao family, the second high-level and real management class of the Xu Kingdom is the Han Patriarchal Family, the Mo Family, and the Lone Ranger represented by the Autumn Leaves Wutong Mountain, but these people definitely do not buy Confucian accounts.

There is also an aspect of the imperial advisors, such as Yang Sheng, which is also a Confucian outlet. But it's a pity. Confucianism does not pay attention to the outer gate, and Yang Sheng's entry into the level of the sun and moon is still under the guidance of Xiao Hao, so Kong Xiang did not even see Yang Sheng's face here in Xishan Town.

In the end, there was really no way, Kong Xiang could only want to meet Xiao Hao directly with his three-inch incorruptible tongue, and took Xiao Hao's "dare not use" Confucian people. This is kind of an outrageous thing.

But Kong Xiang is Kong Xiang, even if Xiao Hao obviously showed rejection and distrust. But he still did not give up, as a good politician, he must know how to take advantage of loopholes.

"Xiao Gongzi, you see that this Qingyue princess is also pitiful, you ......"

"No!" Xiao Hao coldly interrupted Kong Xiang's words at this time, "It's already so pitiful, you still can't bear to use this poor princess! I think what Princess Qingyue wants most now is a life with a list."

It's just a little girl who has undergone a sea change, and you can use such a little girl for your own political purposes. Do you really bear it?"

Listening to Xiao Hao's ruthless words, Kong Xiang finally changed color, "If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer a loss! Sooner or later, you will suffer!"

Leaving such a sentence, Kong Xiang probably temporarily gave up his persistence and chose a strategic shift.

"Sneer......" Xiao Hao sneered, sneered, and disdainful, "After listening to the old man's words, I have no interest in my life! Look at what you look like, listening to your words, it is a road of no return!"

"Poof!" Kong Xiang stumbled suddenly. rolled around on the ground in embarrassment, and hurriedly got up and pointed at Xiao Hao speechless. After a long time, he finally said in a trembling voice: "It's a big rebellion!"

"Hey......" Xiao Hao shook his head regretfully again, "Do you know, your performance this time has completely disappointed me in you and Confucianism! What you do is not in your interests is a great rebellion? You are eating the ancients! You don't know how to forge ahead! Look at what you Confucians are doing, what kind of ancestors and teachings are pursued every day." That's all in the past!

Since the past is the past, it is outdated! You pursue the past. It is regressing and hindering the progress of the human race! There is no way out of retreat! There is always only a way forward, and there is no way back. People say that the road is getting wider and wider, but you are always pursuing the 'beautiful' past, pursuing the so-called enlightenment of the ancestors, and if you disobey the slightest disobedience, you will be put on a hat of great rebellion!

Laugh at...... Let's go. Don't stay here anymore.

In addition, Princess Qingyue, don't go to see it. It's hard enough for a little girl to be a little girl, and you still want to use a little girl to achieve your own political goals, where is your kindness? Have you forgotten all the teachings of your saints?

Go, go, I, Xiao Hao, am determined to build a new world, rather than continue to maintain the world that has been full of holes. Today I know that my ideas are inherently incompatible with Confucianism; you are maintaining everything that is old, while I am tearing down everything that is old! The old is the old after all.

Oooooooo......oo By the way, I remembered a joke. For example, many people say that in ancient times, the road was not left behind, and the night was never closed, saying that that was the ideal world, right?"

Kong Xiang, who finally found a chance to speak, suddenly began to roar, "Nonsense, that is a world with simple folk customs, the most perfect world! Of course, we also understand that it is unrealistic to want to return to that era, but we also want to pursue an era of sages who are happy in the world!"

"Tsk...... When I saw you, I was immersed in my own illusions and couldn't extricate myself! I haven't studied archaeology, okay? Let me tell you, the reason why you didn't close your door at night at that time was because you were poor, and everyone had nothing to steal!"

Poof...... Xiang'er's first laughing flower branch trembled. Even the little fox in Xiang'er's arms covered his mouth with a small paw, laughing cheaply.

Yun'er secretly withdrew her outstretched hand, her eyes were full of excitement - Kong Xiang's fall just now had part of Yun'er's credit. This excitement has not disappeared, and when I heard Xiao Hao's joke again, my eyes suddenly narrowed and I couldn't see the gap, and it became a slender and beautiful sketch.

Even Qingyue, who was relatively cold, couldn't help but laugh when she heard Xiao Hao's words, although she tried her best to hold back her smile, she still couldn't hold back a trace of laughter.

And it wasn't just these few people, there was a sudden burst of laughter around them, and then I saw that many people who should have left just now actually reappeared, leaning back and laughing one by one.

"You ...... You guys...... I didn't even leave!" Kong Xiang was flushed at this time.

"Oh, Master Kong, it's not right for you to say that, why didn't you leave, we just thought of something. It's back, but it's just a coincidence that everyone wants to go together. But seeing that you were talking very happily, we didn't dare to disturb us, so we went incognito. Lan Hai looked at Kong Xiang with a smile.

As the so-called peers are enemies, both of them are in a similar position, and now this Kong Xiang actually wants to seek this position, of course, it makes Lan Hai unhappy! Not to mention some confrontations between Confucianism and Han patriarchs. Although the Han patriarchal family and Confucianism are now in an alliance, there is still a little contradiction between the brothers. Not to mention the two huge schools of thought; there are very few conflicts between the two sides over ideas and interests! When facing the Zajia family and the Li Zongfa family, the two sides may be able to cooperate, but when there are only two schools, of course they have to compete.

Xiao Hao looked around, of course he knew that after these people came out, they saw Kong Xiang and thought of a way to come back in a circle, but it was mainly the adults who came back, and they also talked to Xiao Hao quietly. These senior officials had to pay attention to Kong Xiang's conversation, after all, this is a matter related to the size of everyone's jobs in the future -- one more person will have to share more interests.

Moreover, the current Xuguo has already achieved remarkable results in governing the country according to law, and if Confucianism suddenly inserts a lever horizontally, it will be called adding chaos! In particular, the Han Zongfa family and the Mo family have almost made the Xuguo a perfect model, not to mention that the two families have also carried out perfect cooperation here, not only did they not harm each other's interests. In such a situation, the Han patriarchal scholars and the Mohists should also be careful of Confucianism to sabotage.

In fact, the Mo family and the Han patriarchal family have one thing in common, and this common point actually involves the core inheritance of the two families, so the two can be perfectly combined. The common denominator is fairness. Legalism stresses that everyone is equal under the law, while Mohists emphasize love and love that is undifferentiated and hierarchical.

If it were only the Han family, then the law would be too rigid and cold, and it would not be good if it was just the Mo family itself—everyone would love their own children more than the children of others. But with Xiao Hao's promotion, the two families were surprised to find that everyone's theories could complement each other perfectly, so that of course there was no room for other theories between the two sides. So. The Han family and the Mo family were very nervous, and Confucianism came out to stir up the wind and rain.

In a word, the country of Asahi is about to be founded. Moreover, everything has been prepared and such conditions are in place, so all schools of thought in the country have begun to compete for power and profit! This is unavoidable, everyone has to consider their own families, their own schools, and even their own interests; this is human nature, and it cannot be blamed or avoided. Any mature country as a whole will inevitably have such struggles, and what Xiao Hao can do is to control these struggles within a reasonable range. And form an external force.

"Haha......" Looking at these people around him, Kong Xiang suddenly laughed, a little crazy and a little irrational. Today, Xiao Hao's words were like a hammer, smashing the illusory eggshell in his heart. Uncovered the fragile heart inside. Under such circumstances, coupled with the ridicule of everyone around him, Kong Xiang finally broke out.

Although the old man has only barely reached the state of purple qi rising, the old man is an intellectual after all. As soon as the spearhead turned to the Mohists, "Laugh at Nima's laughter! Even if Confucianism is taking the road of retreat, is it okay for you Mohists? Don't forget, your Mohists are also pursuing the so-called 'perfection' of primitive society!"

You Han Sectarians don't have to laugh, don't forget that the slogans you have shouted over the years are also to restore the glory of your ancestors!"

"I'm sorry!" Mo Xinfang walked out generously, "What you said was before, we did that before!, but unfortunately, under Xiao Hao's guidance, here in Xuguo, we have recognized the mistakes of the past, and we are already beginning to change." What was good in the past will be inherited and carried forward, and what was wrong in the past or cannot be judged whether it has an effect or not, we will temporarily seal it away. And in the process, we are exploring new directions.

Today, the Han family has been exploring a new path with our Mo family. You see, the development of Xuguo has exceeded too much, and even Xuguo's luck has turned into a royal red.

Moreover, even our luck is beginning to change. ”

Saying that, Mo Xinfang casually used a small magical power, but the color of Mo Xinfang's divine power has also changed, no longer cyan or bronze, but with a little red;

"This ......" Kong Xiang didn't know how to calm down at this time - or maybe this Kong Xiang didn't really lose his mind just now, after all, he was a talent as a prime minister and a doctor of imperial history, not to mention whether he could sail a boat on his stomach, but at least one thing was certain, each of them was not an ordinary character. Li Ziyu's smiling and murderous people are much worse than old foxes like Kong Xiang - people don't change their faces, and they don't have to deliberately pretend to have that kind of unnatural smile.

Suddenly, Kong Xiang actually bowed slightly to Xiao Hao, "I've been taught." ”

Then the old man turned around and left in style!

Xiao Hao looked at Kong Xiang's back and frowned a little! Such a person who can afford to let it go is the real terrible person; with a talent like Kong Xiang, although he is older, the future is not impossible! Perhaps, it will be another Jiang Ziya?!

At this time, Xiao Hao suddenly regretted a little, and although what he had just said was refreshing, he pointed out the deficiencies to Confucianism and also proposed ways to improve it! This is the essence of the theories of the other world, after entering the era of science and technology, when it went back and sorted out the essence of various theories, but today it is said to outsiders in this way -- a big loss! Just like the so-called false transmission of 10,000 books and true transmission of one sentence, Xiao Hao's two sentences have brought tremendous benefits to Confucianism.

Ay...... I'm impulsive! I'm still young and frivolous...... Young Master Xiao felt a little sorry for himself.

But then Xiao Hao thought of Princess Qingyue, just as Xiao Hao said, this Princess Qingyue is actually very pitiful, and Kong Xiang still wants to use Princess Qingyue to achieve his political goals, which is also the point that Xiao Hao looks down on Kong Xiang. It seems that it is a good thing for Xiao Hao to marry Princess Qingyue, good for Xiao Hao, good for Xu Guo, and good for Princess Qingyue, but in fact, this is just the surface.

First of all, Princess Qingyue is also a princess no matter what, you can't let her be small, otherwise you are not soliciting the old ministers of the royal court, but humiliating; secondly, Princess Qingyue has always been taught by Kong Xiang, and she can be regarded as Kong Xiang's half apprentice, Princess Qingyue will inevitably be Kong Xiang, and even the spokesperson of Confucianism in Xuguo in the future. Also, this Princess Qingyue is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and Xiao Hao also wants to pay tribute to this little girl's scheming.

And in the end, there is another point, Xiao Hao has not pierced, but it has been shown in Xuguo's daily actions - try to promote those who are suppressed, or civilians, to govern the country, and the follow-up Xuguo is to cultivate various talents through the education system. For the time being, the talents needed by Xuguo are mainly selected through recommendation.

"Let's go see Sister Qing'er. Xiang'er pulled Xiao Hao's sleeve. Here in Xishan Town, Xiang'er has the best relationship with Princess Qingyue. At the beginning, Princess Qingyue was alone, and Xiang'er didn't have any playmates, so the two naturally played together; even when Kong Xiang arranged for Yun County's daughter Yun Bixiu to meet, Princess Qingyue pulled Xiang'er to destroy it together. It still makes Xiao Hao a little funny, but he is a little wary of it.

At this time, Qingyue suddenly spoke, "Senior brother, hand over the little princess to me, just use the little princess's talent to help me." ”

"En?" Xiao Hao looked at Qingyue, Qingyue, who was plain white and elegant, actually wanted to take the initiative to help the little princess? You must know that this little princess is definitely someone who affects the status of Qingyue Queen!

"I thought about it for a while, maybe there was a way. Qingyue smiled slightly, but did not explain it clearly, but with a hint of mystery.

"Oh, well, let's go over and see, a poor man too. Xiao Hao sighed slightly. In every coup d'état, etc., it is these innocent people who suffer. Let's just say that Princess Qingyue, although she has scheming, but it is also due to the environment, but in the real court, this Princess Qingyue can be regarded as a model for the princess; but once a coup d'état, her parents died tragically, and the murderer turned out to be her own uncle! This change is really too unbearable to watch. Even others can't stand it, let alone how the little princess feels. (To be continued......)
