When the Empress Dowager Huayang let go of the hand holding Gongzi Chengchan, Gongzi Chengchan looked around, ran towards Zhu Xiang with her little short legs, hugged Zhu Xiang's legs, and buried her face in Zhu Xiang's legs.

There are so many strangers, and my uncle protects me!

Seeing Gongzi Chengcheng's action, some of the ministers sank in their hearts.

Why is Gongzi Cheng Chan and Changping Jun so close?!

Ying Xiaozheng first met with the Empress Dowager Huayang, and then walked to Gongzi Cheng's side: "Come over to my brother's side." ”

Gongzi Cheng raised his head, hesitated, and when Ying Xiaozheng's face rose, he quickly let go of Zhu Xiang's leg and pulled Ying Xiaozheng's sleeve.

"My brother is injured, so he doesn't hold hands." Childe Cheng Cheng gave the operation supervisor the prince's brother a flattering smile.

Ying Xiaozheng said: "It's okay. ”

He took Gongzi Chengchan's hand with his left hand, which was not very serious, and after saluting Zhu Xiang's head, he led Gongzi Chengchan to the throne.

Because he was nagged by Zhu Xiang many times, when Ying Xiaozheng led Gongzi Cheng, he finally had no choice but to learn to cooperate with Gongzi Cheng's small short-legged pace, and no longer let Gongzi Chengcheng chase with his small short legs.

The scene of the harmony between the princely government and the sons of the Cheng Cheng brothers once again pierced some people's hearts.

They still thought that the crown prince's position was unstable because of his biological mother. How to look at it or be invulnerable?

"I brought the account book that Zhao Jiyi should have used for the past ten years." Empress Dowager Huayang snorted coldly, "Zhongqing's family can take a look at how extravagant this woman is." The king and the crown prince have never been sorry for him. Because she was too extravagant, the prince had never used his share since she entered Qin, and gave it to her. I want to come and see who said that the prince is not filial! ”

Zhu Xiang was stunned. What? Does Zheng'er still have a share?

Ying Xiaozheng frowned, hey, it turns out that I still have a share?

Ying Xiaozheng's father, Prince Qin Chu, was also a little abrupt, yes, Zheng'er was raised by Zhu Xiang, where did Zheng'er's share go? Even when he was still the great-grandson of King Qin, King Qin Zhaoxiang gave Zheng'er a role comparable to that of the crown prince. He also thought that Zhu Xiang would save it for Zheng'er.

Zhu Xiang suddenly remembered what Xue Ji had discussed with him many years ago. Because it was so long ago, he forgot.

Xue Ji said to him, Zheng'er and they raised it themselves, and the things given by King Qin were given to Chunhua, and Zheng'er gave Chunhua's support money.

"That's true." Zhu Xiang said, "This matter was decided by the prince when he was young. ”

Ying Xiaozheng pondered for a long time, is there such a thing?

Although he has a good memory, he ignores the past when it is not worth remembering. Maybe his uncle and aunt mentioned it to him, but he didn't care about playing or eating.

Why was I so stupid when I was younger! Uncles and aunts agree to whatever they say!

Ying Xiaozheng beat his chest with regret. After so many years of money, if he saves up, he doesn't know how much he can do! Even if it's okay to use, how good it is to give it to your uncle and aunt!

Gongzi Cheng Chan opened his eyes widely: "Brother didn't get a share?" ”

Ying Xiaozheng nodded with mixed feelings. How did the adult know the case at such a young age?

Gongzi Cheng Cheng hesitated for a long time, took out a small sachet from his arms, poured out half of the irregular gold ball, hesitated for a long time, and held it to Ying Xiaozheng: "Brother, share half of you." ”

Ying Xiaozheng was stunned.

Gongzi Cheng stretched out his hand: "I have less money to use, give it to my brother." ”

Bribe my brother, will my brother give me less homework? Seeing others bribing the people in the eldest mother's palace, Gongzi Cheng, who knew what the bribe meant, looked at his super stern and terrifying brother expectantly.

Ying Xiaozheng put away his stunned expression, shook his bandaged hand lightly, and then slowly opened it.

He took the small golden ball of Gongzi Chengcheng: "Okay." ”

You divide half of the golden ball at the moment, and as long as you don't rebel in the future, I will ensure that you will be rich and safe for the rest of your life.

Ying Xiaozheng said in his heart.

Gongzi Cheng Chan saw that the prince's brother had been bribed, and his eyes were crooked.

He thought that bribes were such a thing, and the other party would definitely fulfill his promise if he received it.

But he forgot that he didn't ask for it, so his brother did make his promise, but not what he thought he wanted.

The small actions of the two brothers made the doctors who had been observing the two very complicated.

How could the Qin royal family still have brothers, friends and brothers?

Uh, it seems that King Qin Renwen and Prince Mourning were also brothers, friends and brothers?

After the Empress Dowager Huayang became a witness to this unexpected appearance, she did not leave the court.

For the first time, she sat beside King Qin as the queen mother, glaring at her with a pair of phoenix eyes and scanning the ministers.

The Empress Dowager Huayang has always been an incompetent beauty in the hearts of the ministers, she only knows how to flatter the former king, and there is no furrow in her chest.

Now she shows the momentum of the Empress Dowager Qin, which makes the ministers very uncomfortable.

Looking at Prince Qin's respectful appearance to the Empress Dowager Huayang, they couldn't tell whether Prince Chu of Qin was pretending or being sincere. But it is certain that the Empress Dowager Huayang is on the side of the prince at this moment.

Could it be that the Empress Dowager Huayang took advantage of the situation in order to take away the power of Queen Qin in the harem?

This group of people can't help but make up conspiracy theories.

The Empress Dowager Huayang mustered up her courage and stepped into the court for the first time.

When she sat down, the breath she had held up was gone, and her hands and feet were weak.

But she still insisted on saying to Ying Xiaozheng: "Don't be afraid, Zheng'er, the eldest mother will protect you on behalf of Xue Ji." ”

Seeing Ying Xiaozheng's blood-drenched appearance, the Empress Dowager Huayang could not sleep peacefully, and kept crying that she was sorry for her only friend.

After she learned that what was going to happen today, she tossed and turned for a long time, gritting her teeth and coming to help.

"Thank you, Auntie." Ying Xiaozheng said, "With the eldest mother here, Zheng'er is not afraid." ”

The Empress Dowager Huayang tried to squeeze out a smile, and then pretended to be calm and said, "Zhongqing continues to deliberate, don't care about me." ”

Prince Chu of Qin saw that Gongzi Cheng Chan was young and couldn't stand still, so he asked Ying Xiaozheng to bring a chair up and let him sit with Gongzi Cheng Chan in his arms.

Gongzi Cheng carefully leaned on Ying Xiaozheng's arms: "Won't it press my brother's wound?" ”

Ying Xiaozheng said with a straight face: "No." ”

Gongzi Cheng Cheng adjusted the position of his little buttocks, leaned his back against Ying Xiaozheng's arms, and quickly got used to his brother's chair.

All the evidence witnesses brought by Zhu Xiang have been submitted.

He was going to stand and wait for the group to discuss, to show his respectful attitude. Before Prince Qin Chu could speak, Mrs. Huayang urged Zhu Xiang to sit down: "Why don't you hurry up and help Changping Jun to take a seat?" ”

Prince Chu of Qin immediately followed: "Changping Jun, take a seat." ”

After Zhu Xiang thanked the Queen Mother and the King of Qin, he sat back.

He has no real job on him, but his seat is only below the prime minister.

The seats are divided into two rows, with Cai Ze and Xunzi each leading one row. Lin Zhen is after Cai Ze, and Zhu Xiang is after Xunzi.

Seeing Zhu Xiang coming back, Xunzi lowered his voice and said, "Happy?" ”

Zhu Xiang said: "Hmm." ”

Xunzi sighed and stopped talking to Zhu Xiang.

He knew that Zhu Xiang's request would definitely fail.

Why should children be required to be filial to their parents, regardless of right or wrong? Because the prince of heaven and earth is a teacher, the character corresponding to "filial piety" is "loyalty".

For the sake of social stability, not only Confucianism, but also various schools of thought strictly stipulate social hierarchies. Let everyone in the world perform their duties and not exceed the rules.

Don't they know that there is injustice in it?

Know.

But the sages and sages have been on the wall in this world for so long, so they can only write the future they hope for into the book, just like the Confucian "Datong", and then formulate unfair rules for this world.

Queen Qin may be deposed and killed, but the reason why she was deposed and killed must not be unkind to Prince Qin.

"I know that the king has his difficulties, and I also know that there are rules in this world. I don't expect myself to succeed, I just put this thing out there and let everybody know that there is one thing. Zhu Xiang said, "If today's debate can be circulated and recorded in the history books and discussed by future generations, it will be enough." ”

Zhu Xiang knew that without him, the sages also had many discussions about "unfilial piety" and "unkindness", and there were also many sages who called for "filial piety" to correspond to "kindness".

It's just that these appeals end up being mere appeals.

So are these voices useless? No. The world is developing, and ideas are progressing. One day, when the world does not need foolishness to maintain stability, foolishness and filial piety will also be abandoned.

At that time, it was easier for people to re-establish the rules and have rules to follow than to start from scratch.

All the epoch-making thoughts of the sages are for the moment when future generations suddenly realize when they open the history books.

After Zhu Xiang explained his thoughts to Xunzi, Xunzi agreed that he was messing around.

In the court, the Confucian officials who paid the most attention to filial piety were actually very quiet, which made the doctors who thought that Confucianism would rush up and beat Zhu Xiang first.

One by one, the Confucian scholars put their hands in their sleeves, some closed their eyes and took a nap, some watched the discussion with expressionless faces, and some exchanged ears with others without knowing what they were talking about.

Their eyes occasionally swept over Zhu Xiang, and their eyes were full of admiration, but there was no hatred.

At this time, the doctors realized that none of the people who had fainted just now and wanted to beat Zhu Xiang were Confucians.

They all know that Xunzi is Zhu Xiang's teacher, has Xunzi become the second "Confucius" in the hearts of Confucians in the world?

But didn't that group of Luru dislike Xunzi and be hostile to Xunzi? Why don't they object to Zhu Xiang either?

Zhu Xiang was also surprised that there was no Confucian to spit on his face.

What he didn't know was that when Qin Wangzhu sent Lu Ru to repair the book, he informed Lu Ru of this idea.

Later, he led Lu Ru to do down-to-earth learning in Southern Qin, educate barbarians, and instill the importance of great unification in everyone. When the displaced people of Chu came to Southern Qin, it was he who led the Lu Ru to appease the displaced people.

There are many Confucian scholars who can speak and learn. There are very few Confucians like Zhu Xiang who run the word "benevolence" through their behavior. Although most Confucians don't have this heart, they don't have this opportunity.

In the heart of Lu Ru, who respected Mencius, Zhu Xiang often did things of "sacrificing his life for righteousness", and was the person who inherited the mantle of Mencius, which was completely different from Xunzi.

Moreover, the Confucian ideas of Confucius, Meng, and Xun have never been foolish, filial piety, and loyalty. This is all after Confucianism became "Confucianism", the vassals of later generations.

Confucius said: "The son follows the father, and the son is filial? Subordinate to the king, Xi Chenzhen? Judging the reason for it, it is called filial piety and chastity. ”

Mencius said: "The king regards his ministers as dogs and horses, and the ministers regard the king as his countrymen; The king regards his ministers as mustard, and the ministers regard him as an enemy. ”

Xun Zi said: "From the Tao does not obey the king, from the righteousness does not obey the father, and the great deeds of people are also." ”

Even if Confucianism's "filial piety" at this time was basically only for the "father" and ignored the mother. But even in terms of patriarchy, none of the three generations of Confucian giants advocated foolishness, loyalty, and filial piety.

In other words, not to mention that Chunhua is the mother of Ying Xiaozheng, that is, Zichu did this to Ying Xiaozheng, they all agree that Ying Xiaozheng can not be filial to Zichu!

At the end of the Warring States Period, only Confucianism and Confucianism remained in the political arena. And there is a reason why Confucianism is not treated well by the rulers.

They are rebels who are ahead of their time.
