Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Confucius would definitely not be starved to death, after all, there were so many immortals around him to protect him.  But gods can't show their magical powers randomly, so they were able to keep Confucius from being dizzy and dizzy after being hungry for seven days, but they couldn't conjure food for him to eat.

    If Yan Hui can get back the food, he can make the teacher like him more, so he and Yunyao made an agreement, which comes in handy now.

    Yunyao prepared millet and ten sticks of bacon. She was going to try to see if she could stay in Confucius' private school for a few years.  Although she felt that Confucius would not recruit women, she might as well give it a try, and maybe she could leave one or two idioms that are well-known to all.

    The status of women has been declining since the early Spring and Autumn Period. Now, private ownership has been promoted, the small-scale peasant economy has gradually formed, and there are more and more families in which men farm and women weave, and women's status in society becomes more and more in favor of the master.

    Yan Hui brought back some food and took a bite while cooking.

    Confucius felt uncomfortable when he saw it. He felt that Yan Hui did not respect his teacher. The teacher had been hungry for seven days without eating. How could he eat first as a disciple?

    The old man would not keep this problem in his mind. When the rice was cooked, he asked Yan Hui: "I just dreamed of my ancestors, but I ate the rice first and then asked my ancestors to eat from the empty bowl."

    When Yan Hui heard this, he knew that Confucius must have seen him eating first, so he felt unhappy, so he explained: "There was ashes in the pot just now, and it was hard to throw them away, so I could only eat the corner of the ashes.  "

    When Confucius heard that he had misunderstood Yan Hui, it turned out that Yan Hui was not greedy. He couldn't help but sighed: "I thought seeing is believing, but now I know that seeing with the eyes may not be trustworthy. I thought I could trust my heart, but in my heart  Your imagination can also deceive yourself. It is really not easy to understand the true appearance of a person or thing."

    Yan Hui was stunned after hearing this, and he truly admired Confucius. Confucius was able to speak such great principles on such a trivial matter. He was indeed the leader among all the disciples.

    After eating, it¡¯s time to reflect. After all, I have to examine myself three times a day.  I had to think about why their road to promoting self-denial and restoration of ritual was so difficult and thorny. Confucius approached Zilu, Zigong, and Yan Hui to listen to his disciples' thoughts.

    Confucius was a man of culture, so he said in a roundabout way: "There is an animal in the Book of Songs, not a rhinoceros or a tiger, walking around in the wild without direction, isn't it me? Is my opinion wrong? Otherwise, why would it happen?  Are you in this situation?" Although Confucius was born into a down-and-out nobleman, after he became famous, he quickly drew a clear line with the working class. He deeply hated farming, working, or doing nothing in the suburbs.

    Now he is trapped in the wilderness and can't even enter the city. Isn't this embarrassing?  Using the animals in the Book of Songs as a metaphor for myself means that I am confused now, don¡¯t know what to do, and feel that I may fall back into the working class.

    Zilu was a martial artist. After hearing this, he said: "Maybe it's because we don't do well enough in daily life, so people are unwilling to accept our ideas. Or maybe we are not smart enough, that's why we are like this."

    Confucius shook his head: "If our daily virtues were enough to make people use us, then Boyi and Shuqi wouldn't have to die. If wisdom could help people resolve all difficulties, then Bigan wouldn't have to die either." Apparently he  I don¡¯t think it¡¯s because of my own virtue and wisdom, because sages with better virtue and higher wisdom also died miserably.

    Bigan¡¯s poaching happened during the time of King Zhou of Shang, and Boyi and Shuqi also happened at that time. At that time, King Wu of Zhou attacked Yin and Shang, and these two people would rather starve to death than betray the Shang Dynasty.

    Zilu's statement was denied. Zigong, a rich man, was more tactful and not as direct as Zilu. He said: "Maybe it's because the teacher's ideas are too great, so people in the world have no understanding and cannot understand. How about we lower ourselves a little bit?"  Standards, only promote those parts that ordinary people can understand?¡±

    Confucius almost lost his temper after hearing this. Zigong was so embarrassed. Can a gentleman lower his requirements to cater to others?  If you do this, how can you be called a gentleman?

    "Farmers farm the land diligently, but there is no way to guarantee a good harvest. Craftsmen work hard, but there is no guarantee that every work will be perfect. Even if I make reasonable suggestions and tell them how to govern the country and restore Zhou rites, there is no way to make them  Everyone accepts it." That is to say, not being accepted by everyone in the world is not an excuse to lower your standards.

    Finally, there was Yan Hui. Yan Hui admired Confucius as much as he admired Yuanshi Tianzun, so he opened his mouth and said: "It is not our fault that our ideas are not accepted, it is the fault of the world. We just promote it, and they don't accept it."  It does not affect our true nature as gentlemen. On the contrary, it would be our fault if we do not promote it.¡±

    Confucius was happy: "If you get rich, I will kill you in the future." This is what he wanted to hear. It is not wrong to promote ideas, it is wrong not to promote ideas, and it is also wrong not to accept ideas.  Reverse??I have promoted it myself, and I have no regrets.

    Yunyao pricked up her ears and listened, thinking that this old Master Kong was still a tsundere. Under normal circumstances, shouldn't he reflect on whether his own ideas were deficient and then improve them?

    No one said anything about improvement, only about lowering standards. Do they really think that self-denial and restoration of etiquette are already perfect?

    They may not think it is perfect, but no one can propose another framework that covers the world. Now is not the era of a hundred schools of thought contending. Except for Confucius' self-denial and restoration of rituals, which can cover the world, others, even respecting the king and rejecting the barbarians, are a bit biased.  .

    Yunyao stood outside the camp surrounded by carriages. After listening to the conversation in Confucius' tent, she felt that it was almost done, so she said loudly to these embarrassed students: "Is this where Confucius and Kong Zhongni are?" She shouted with a loud voice,  Everyone stood up and looked over.

    A dusty woman stands outside the camp, holding ten strips of bacon in her hand. Who is she trying to become a disciple for?

    When Confucius heard from his disciples that someone was coming to become a disciple, he immediately arranged his makeup and clothes and let Yunyao come in.

    Even though he was so poor that he couldn't afford to eat, Confucius was still very particular about the color of his clothes and still looked very stylish.  He is a standard old man from Lu Guozhuang. Judging from the calluses on the tiger's mouth, he is used to fencing with his right hand.

    Confucius saw Yunyao and asked: "Who wants to become a disciple? Why are you the only one?" The ten bacon rules were the rules he set for becoming a disciple. As long as he was given bacon, he would accept a disciple.  But he only saw Yunyao but no one else. He didn't think that Yunyao was his apprentice, but that Yunyao was apprenticed on behalf of someone else.

    Yunyao wanted to experience hundreds of schools of thought one by one, and it was a waste if he didn¡¯t experience it.  Anyway, Sunhou Hou will cause a big fuss in Heaven soon, and he can't control her at all.

    Sun Wukong and Guan Zhong were born in the same year. Now he has gone to sea to study under his master. When he returns, he will cause trouble in the East China Sea and invade the underworld. Finally, he will order An Bi and Ma Wen, raise a flag to rebel against the sky, and cause trouble in the palace of heaven.  In the next few hundred years, the Heavenly Court will be extremely busy because of the Monkey King.

    "I am Mr. Zhu, my first name is Yun, and my surname is Yao. I want to accept you as my teacher." Yunyao showed a harmless smile, handed over ten pieces of special old bacon, and said: "Master, please accept me as your teacher."  only."

    When Confucius heard this, he immediately refused and said: "What kind of decency is it? Women should weave cloth at home and collect cloth in the fields. How can they learn from a teacher?"

    Yunyao said: "But when the master said that you would teach knowledge after accepting ten strips of bacon, you didn't say clearly that you would not accept women." Yunyao said that she was at the scene at that time, and she would never be wrong.
