Meng Yizi, Ji Huanzi, and the forces of Qiu Sanhuan in Shusun Prefecture changed their original intention to support the three capitals, which made Confucius face many problems in destroying the Yi.

The virgin father of the Zai Gong of Yunyi replied strongly: "If you destroy the Yi, the people of the Qi State will be able to reach the north gate of the border, which is the guarantee of the Lu State and cannot be destroyed." ”

In the face of the toughness of the public virgin, Meng Yizi said: "Now the power in the hands of the retainers is very great, and I really can't control it, so I ask Lu Dinggong to decide what to do." ”

Meng Yizi kicked the ball back into the hands of Confucius and Lu Dinggong.

Lu Dinggong had just experienced the pain of losing his son, his spirit was sluggish, and his health was deteriorating.

But Lu Dinggong finally saw the hope of weakening Sanhuan's strength, and of course he refused to give up such an opportunity, so he strongly advocated attacking Yuyi immediately.

Confucius hurriedly stopped: "Dinggong, the war is not in a hurry, at this time it is cold and freezing, which is not conducive to attacking, and the city of Yuyi is strong and very tall, it is not possible to capture it in the short term, it is better to think of other ways." ”

Lu Ding said fairly: "Confucius, don't stop me, I know that time is running out, if I can't take it all at once, I don't think I will see tomorrow's spring." ”

Lu Dinggong looked at Confucius and ordered: "This expedition, you don't want to follow, you will stay in the capital Qufu! I will take Meng Yizi, Ji Huanzi and Uncle Sun Zhou Qiu Sanhuan to go on the expedition together, and if you don't succeed, you will become benevolent." ”

After getting along with each other for many years, especially after Confucius handed over the management of Yunyi, Lu Dinggong trusted Confucius very much, and handed over the heavy responsibility of staying in the rear base camp to Confucius.

Although Confucius tried every means to persuade her, Princess Luding had already made up her mind and personally led the army to attack Yunyi, and her father-in-law led the army to resist.

The army of Luding Gong failed to capture the city many times, and the weather was cold, the sergeants were aggrieved, and the army was disheartened.

At this moment, the virgin father took advantage of Lu Dinggong's unpreparedness and took the initiative to attack, and he was caught off guard, and the sergeant was extremely injured, and Lu Dinggong was also sick from hard work, and he couldn't afford to get sick.

Confucius sat in Qufu and was extremely concerned about Lu Dinggong's illness.

At this moment, a secret letter was delivered to Confucius, and it was Lu Dinggong who ordered Confucius to meet him immediately in the military camp outside Yuyi.

Confucius immediately summoned his disciples to discuss the matter, and Zilu said: "At this time, Qufu is the base camp, and the situation in Yuyi is unknown, so it is better for the teacher to find out the situation and then go." ”

Zilu was worried that this matter was not done by Lu Dinggong, but that someone wanted to deceive Confucius in the name of Lu Dinggong.

It's not impossible, everyone has been worried about Lu Dinggong's physical condition before, and now after this big defeat, whether Lu Dinggong can persist is a question.

If it was the people of Sanhuan who had ulterior motives, then Confucius was likely to fall into it.

Confucius thought about it, so in the name of meditation, he went to the secret room and took out a mirror.

This mirror was given to him by the current Yao Chi, and it can take care of any part of this world.

Confucius carefully checked Lu Dinggong's situation and found that he was indeed seriously ill in bed at this time, but there was no sign of confinement. He said in his heart: "It seems that Lu Dinggong really summoned me to go, but he was not in a hurry to come back, but let me go, what does this mean?"

After Confucius came out, he said: "It is not the duty of the courtiers to summon the Dinggong, so I decided to go to see the Dinggong." ”

Confucius continued to instruct: "Yan Hui, I'm worried about Dinggong's health, you go to Bian Que's divine doctor to meet at the military camp outside Yiyi." Zilu, you lead the people of Feiyi to meet from the left, Si Chi, you lead the people of Yuyi to meet from the right, and Zigong, you are responsible for leading the people of Qufu to meet from the back. ”

After the last incident, Confucius saw his talent, not only was he very busy with his heavy responsibilities, but also accepted him as a disciple.

Confucius arranged many more things, so he took a cadre of ministers in Qufu to go.

Soon, Confucius came to the military camp outside Yiyi and met with Lu Dinggong.

Seeing Confucius coming, Lu Dinggong was very happy, his face was also a lot ruddy, and he reluctantly got up and said: "Confucius Situ, you are finally here, and I regret that I didn't listen to your advice at the beginning, and I suffered this defeat, and I have no face to go back to see Qufu!"

Confucius hurriedly comforted: "Dinggong, where is this saying, victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, this time you fail, it will be good to win a battle next time." ”

Lu Dinggong looked at Confucius carefully, and then looked at the three huans and the ministers present, and pulled Confucius closer.

Lu Ding is fair: "I know my own affairs, I have the pain of losing my son before, and the sorrow of failure, and my body has long been gone." The country cannot be without a king for a day, today Confucius, Sanhuan, and all the ministers are here, and I will make it clear. ”

Everyone understood that this was Lu Dinggong's explanation, so they naturally pricked up their ears to listen, for fear of missing something.

Confucius also comforted: "Dinggong, are you thinking too much? I have already arranged for someone to ask Bian Que for a miracle doctor, and he will be there soon." At that time, Lu Guo still needs you to preside over the overall situation. ”

Lu Dinggong waved his hand and said: "No need, I'll make it clear now! The next Lu Gong's post will be held by Confucius." ”

When Meng Yizi, Ji Huanzi and Uncle Sun Zhou Qiu Sanhuan heard this, their faces were extremely ugly.

The other ministers also looked at each other, not expecting such a result.

For the position of Duke Lu, Meng Yizi, Ji Huanzi and Uncle Sun Zhou Qiu Sanhuan all coveted it, and they have been in control of national politics for a long time, so they naturally don't want outsiders to get involved, not to mention that they have to take the post of Duke Lu and rise to their heads.

Lu Dinggong glanced at Meng Yizi, Ji Huanzi and Shusun Zhou Qiu Sanhuan, and said: "Meng Yizi, Ji Huanzi and Shusun Zhou Qiu Sanhuan have worked hard and made great achievements, but you must also understand that any one of you becoming the monarch will be the end of the division of the Lu State. ”

Confucius didn't expect such a result, so he hurriedly excused himself: "Thank you Dinggong for looking at it, but this is absolutely unacceptable, please take back your fate." ”

Lu Dinggong looked at Meng Yizi, Ji Huanzi and his uncle Zhou Qiu Sanhuan, Confucius and a group of ministers, and said sternly: "The lonely mind has been decided, don't persuade everyone, so it's decided." ”

This is also a matter of no choice, when Confucius regained his memory, his imperial qi began to play a role, which naturally affected the surroundings, causing Lu Dinggong to make up his mind to give up the position of Lu Gong to Confucius.

Of course, Meng Yizi, Ji Huanzi and Shusun Zhou Qiu Sanhuan were unwilling, they wanted to leave when they raised their feet, and they didn't want to admit this result when they wanted to gather the army.

How was Confucius willing to let them leave, as soon as he used a spell, he fixed Meng Yizi, Ji Huanzi and Shusun Zhou Qiu Sanhuan on the spot, and they couldn't break free.

Confucius said in a deep voice: "This is when Lu Dinggong made a decision, Meng Yizi, Ji Huanzi and Uncle Sun Zhou Qiu are also powerful families, how can they be so impolite, or listen to Lu Dinggong's words." ”

Seeing that Confucius had such an ability, so that Meng Yizi, Ji Huanzi and Shusun Zhou Qiu Sanhuan couldn't resist, Lu Dinggong glanced at Confucius with relief, and closed his eyes forever.

Confucius knew that this was not the time for weakness, so he said sternly: "Although Dinggong is gone, we must abide by his will, and we must complete his will, so let's all work hard with me!"

Ji Huanzi, the most powerful, said: "Since you say so, then you can do it." You have subdued Youyi, we naturally have nothing to say, even if you are the king, it is okay to do it. ”

Confucius said solemnly: "This is easy to say, as long as Meng Yizi comes forward at that time." ”

Looking at Meng Yizi, who struggled but couldn't come out, everyone understood Confucius's thoughts.

After that, Meng Yizi sent a letter to Yunyi, and as a loyal minister, the prince of Yunyi asked for punishment, let go of the city, and destroyed Yunyi himself.

Since then,
