Confucius can be said to have been born in a troubled era, and perhaps it was such a troubled era that gave him a great opportunity to realize his ambitions and ideas.

Confucius was born in the state of Lu and settled in the city, and his father's uncle Liang Su was a doctor in the city, which was just a minor official in the city.

Confucius was abandoned when he was a child, and when he grew up, he lost his father and mother successively.

When Confucius was 3 years old, his father's uncle Liang Su died, and when he was 17 years old, his mother Yan Zheng died.

The loss of his parents is only a setback in his life, and the setback in his career is a rejection.

In that year, when the Ji family of Lu State invited a first-class nobleman to the banquet, Confucius went to the banquet but was rejected by Yang Hu, a retainer of the Ji family.

And this Yang Hu is not a simple character, and later became an indispensable figure in the Lu country.

Since Confucius was in his 20s, he wanted to embark on a career in public office, so he began to pay great attention to the major events in the world, and often thought about various issues in governing the country, and often expressed some opinions.

Confucius started as a commissioner, managing the work of the warehouse, and later changed to taking the field and managing animal husbandry.

Later, Confucius began to open private schools to teach students, and there was no distinction between high and low, rich and poor, creating a precedent at that time.

Previously, teaching students in general was the prerogative of the clan, and this was the first education for commoners.

By the time he was 30 years old, Confucius was already somewhat famous, so he claimed to have achieved something around the age of 30.

At that time, when Qi Jinggong and Yan Ying came to visit Lu State, they summoned Confucius and discussed with him the issue of Qin Mugong's hegemony, and Confucius became acquainted with Qi Jinggong.

When civil strife broke out in the state of Lu, Duke Lu Zhaogong was forced to flee to the state of Qi, and Confucius also left the state of Lu.

When he arrived in the state of Qi, Qi Jinggong asked Confucius about the government, and Confucius said that the king should be like a king, his subordinates should be like a minister, his father should be like a father, and his son should be like a son.

Confucius was thus appreciated by Qi Jinggong, who wanted to seal Confucius with the field of Nixi, but was stopped by Yanzi.

Confucius is in the process of learning no matter where he is, and when he hears the music of "Shao", he is drunk and obsessed, and he does not know the taste of meat in March.

As Confucius's fame grew, the doctors of Qi wanted to harm Confucius.

When Confucius heard about it, he asked Qi Jinggong for help, and Qi Jinggong said that he was too old to use it, so Confucius had to flee back to Lu in a hurry.

At this time, the retainer of the Ji family, Yang Hu, was gaining power day by day, and had already messed up the outline of the monarch and ministers, and Confucius called it a retainer in charge, so he chose not to go out of office, but to live in seclusion and cultivate "poems", "books", "rites", and "music".

In addition, during this time, Confucius also led many disciples to travel, and the disciples followed him all over the world, endured a lot of hardships, and even risked being besieged and killed by the enemy.

Once, they were trapped in a place where the front did not rely on the village and the back did not rely on the store, and the food brought by Confucius and his apprentices was eaten and starved for seven days, which was very miserable.

In the end, it was Confucius's disciple Zigong who found the Chu people, and the Chu State sent troops to meet Confucius, and Confucius's master and apprentice were saved from death.

On another occasion, Confucius was separated from his disciples in the capital of Zheng State, and had to wait for his disciples to look for him at the east gate alone, and was ridiculed.

However, it was precisely such difficult circumstances that sharpened Confucius and allowed him to constantly refine his thinking.

For example, in terms of morality, Confucius constructed a complete ideological system of "morality": at the individual level, he advocated the virtue and virtue of "benevolence and courtesy", advocated the connection between humanity and heaven and earth, and the moderation of humanity and timely changes.

The highest ideal of Confucius is called the "Great Harmony" of "the world is for the public". In the world of Datong, people in the world not only regard their own families as relatives, not only their parents and children as love, but respect each other and love all people in the world.

Later, Confucius, who had rich experience, had the opportunity to be promoted to the position of the Grand Secretary of the Lu State, but in fact, he held the position of the former prime minister.

At this time, the descendants of Lu Huangong's three sons, Jisun, Shusun, and Mengsun, were called Sanhuan, and they were extremely powerful in the Lu State, and the Lu State power at that time was actually in their hands.

And some of Sanhuan's retainers control Sanhuan to varying degrees, and even some retainers can decide the government of Lu State, and the program has been very damaged.

It was at this time that something happened that had a great impact on Confucius.

That is, not long after Confucius became the chief priest, a young man was killed, and he was killed in the name of Confucius.

This event was later known as "Confucius punished Shao Zhengmao for seven days, and exposed the corpse for three days".

Shao Zhengmao, like Confucius, was a person who opened a private school and recruited students.

Shao Zhengmao was a good arguer, and his classes attracted Confucius's students many times to listen to them.

In this regard, Confucius not only did not mind, but also encouraged his disciples to listen more and learn more, and he has also been friends with Shao Zhengmao for a long time.

However, most people who do not know the truth believe that Shao Zhengmao's execution was regarded as Confucius's jealousy of the virtuous and jealous, and this incident greatly stimulated Confucius.

For decades, Confucius attached great importance to his reputation and practiced his own ideas in his life, and he did not expect such a thing to happen when he first became a great priest.

This was not only a blow to his reputation, but also to his philosophy, so it hit him hard.

And Confucius, who was powerless, was almost crazy, which overwhelmed his disciples.

However, under such stimulation, Confucius unexpectedly opened the space of divine consciousness and made him understand his past and present lives.

At that time, although Confucius had a cloak and deep eye sockets, his eyes were extremely bright, and a majestic aura emanated from his body.

He looked at the disciples nearby, then looked at the dying monarch in the deep palace, and then looked at the castle built by Sanhuan, and said loudly: "Since I have come to this world, this world will change for me, and I will make Confucianism the gate of the saints, the respect of the emperor, and the admiration of all the people." ”

When his disciples heard Confucius's ambitions, they became even more uneasy, and Zilu said: "The teacher's madness is even more serious, and there are symptoms of delusion, quick, please ask Doctor Bian Que to come over." ”

Confucius said to the disciples: "There is no need to invite Bian Que, it is already good to be a teacher, everyone can rest assured!"

Confucius then instructed: "Zi I, you go and report to the king of Lu, saying that I am all right, and I can continue to perform my duties tomorrow; Zigong, you go to the castle built by Sanhuan, make friends with Sanhuan, and learn the details, the more detailed the better; Zilu, you are good at martial arts, now the Confucian family has a good ......."

After Confucius gave the order, everyone knew that he was really good, and they were all very happy.

However, everyone also has a sense of strangeness, the previous Confucius was mainly education-oriented, not good at arranging affairs and other things, like now, one by one things are arranged, it is the first time.

Looking at everyone's incredulous expressions, Confucius smiled and said: "Look at what, I'm still me, but after the Shaozheng Mao incident, I can see it more clearly, and in the future, our master and apprentice will work together to return the world to a bright future!"
