After such a stirring of music, the originally pleasant dinner turned out to be unpleasant. I didn't drink much, and everyone saw that Mr. was unhappy, so it ended early.

Confucius originally wanted to tell his students about his ambitions, how to govern a small place, and then! to govern the country of Lu. And then again! Spread his experience of governing the country to the Great Zhou world, and even the whole world.

Outcome! After Lege was so stirred, he didn't bother to say more.

Confucius, who calmed down, was not jealous of music. Because! Lege is not the first opponent.

When he was in the Luoyi Zhou Zang, Lao Tzu had taught him. So! Although Lege's words are a little heavier today, he already has a certain immunity.

Zi Lu, Yan Lu, Zeng Dian and others probably knew the situation, and Lu Gong, Ji Pingzi and others decided to send Mr. where to be an official, to be a local petty official, to see if Confucius could govern there well.

Why did Duke Lu and Ji Pingzi send Confucius to be officials?

It's because! Confucius went to Luoyi in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and asked Lao Tzu, the first genius of the Great Zhou Dynasty, for advice. If the state of Lu does not reuse Confucius, then! The world will say that Lu will not employ people. And also! If Lu does not reuse Confucius, other countries will come to Lu to dig up the wall and dig Confucius away. When the time comes! People all over the world will accuse Lu Guo of not being able to employ people and not paying attention to talents.

Especially Ji Pingzi and others are even more concerned about these. Because! They are the rulers of the state of Lu. If Confucius is not reused, they will be reviled by the world.

"Lege! You? Alas! Why don't you give your brother-in-law face at all? You? After Zilu, Yan Lu, Zeng Dian, Ran Boniu and other substitute teachers left, Qi Guanshi still couldn't help it, and complained and sang music.

"I'm sorry! Sister! I'm sorry! Brother-in-law! Lege had to pretend to apologize to the two.

"It's fine!" Confucius pretended to be indifferent and answered.

"You don't see that? Your brother-in-law is happy today? You? Qi Guan still complained.

"You! You? The wolf sister came to Lege's side and was ready to hit someone. Of course! It's not really fighting, but blaming the kind.

But when her hand twisted to Lege's ear, she paused again. Ultimately! Didn't dare to screw it down.

Wei'er retracted her previous smile and looked impassive. On such occasions, she did not dare to overdo it.

She was born as a maid and is the most observant. Today's atmosphere is not easy to handle. If you are not careful, others will think that you are unstable.

"Don't talk about him! Don't blame him! Confucius saw that the official clan and the wolf sister blamed Le Ge, and hurriedly stopped him.

"I'm sorry! Brother-in-law! Le Ge smiled at Confucius.

"I'm fine! I have the mental capacity to do this! Confucius waved his hand at the music.

His face didn't look at Lege. Visible! He still cares.

"Actually! Brother-in-law! We won't talk about your thoughts and theories, and we won't comment on them! Let's talk about reality! Brother-in-law! Le Ge said with a serious face.

Not his nonsense, but! Confucius must be reminded. Confucius is now full of confidence, and if you don't remind him and don't give him a little blow, he doesn't know how difficult the future will be. When the time comes! I really can't bear it.

"You still say? You? Qi Guan's clan and wolf sister said almost at the same time.

"Let him speak! I'm listening! Confucius stopped.

"Brother-in-law! I don't fight with you, and I don't deliberately hit you, but! I mean well! "If you don't recognize reality, you won't be able to realize your dreams and ideals!" Brother-in-law! The ideal is beautiful, but the reality is cruel! Brother-in-law! ”

"I know! I know what to expect! Confucius replied.

Wei'er brought tea and let the two of them drink it.

"Your set, the people are welcome. But! Kings don't necessarily welcome it! ”

"Lu Gong (Lu Zhaogong) is not welcome?" Confucius asked.

"I mean! The powerful are not welcome! Brother-in-law! Although Duke Lu is the king of Lu, he is not a powerful person, he is a puppet king, and he cannot be the master. Everything is decided by Ji Pingzi and others, mainly because Doctor Ji is wrong. Brother-in-law! You don't have to be doctrinal with me! Brother-in-law! ”

"You?" Confucius really wanted to say that I was dogmatic with you? How can you be like Lao Tzu and call me dogmatic? Am I dogmatic? You're wrong!

But I still didn't say it! Under Lao Tzu's correction, he has realized the error of his thinking mode. Yes! His mindset likes to go to the extreme, either left or right. Sometimes! Grasp one point and hold on, entangled in one-sidedness without taking into account the overall situation.

"Normally, a king is the ruler and the power of a country. But isn't? Times are different? The Son of Heaven can't control the princes of the world, right? In the same way, kings have difficulty controlling their subordinates and cannot be masters. I mean! The one in power has the final say, not you, Kongqiu! You think your methods, ideas, and theories are right, but those in power think they are wrong. That's what I mean! Brother-in-law! Do you understand? ”

"I know!" Confucius replied.

"So what! Even if you govern a small place well, it doesn't mean that you can govern the country of Lu well! The scope of Lu is large. Furthermore! Even if you govern the country of Lu well, it does not mean that you govern the world well. Isn't it? The key question is! You can't be the master. You say it doesn't count! You know what I mean? ”

"I know!" Confucius replied, "So! We must do everything in strict accordance with the weekly etiquette and weekly system. ”

"But you don't have power, how can you do things according to the weekly etiquette and the weekly system? Can you make the powerful listen to you? ”

"This?"

"Can you make Ji Pingzi and the others listen to you?"

"This?"

"If they listen to you, who are they? They are aristocrats! What are you? They listened to you, do you want to usurp the throne of the Lu country, or do you want to do something? ”

"This?" Confucius argued, "I'm not doing this for the good of the country? For the good of the world? For the development and future of humanity? I? ”

"People will suspect that you are usurping the throne! So! Probably going to kill you! Brother-in-law! ”

"This?" Confucius defended, "I'm not? Strictly follow the weekly system and weekly lily to do things? I? Why did I usurp the throne? Am I not? Help the king? ”

"But you? Alas! Brother-in-law! You probably won't get it for a while! That's all I can say to you! Your words don't count, but the words of those in power count. If you go against the will of those in power, then you are in great trouble. In front of the powerful, there is no right or wrong, they are all right, do you understand what I mean? Brother-in-law? ”

"The world? Still lawless? ”

"That's it! In troubled times, it's lawless! In troubled times, no one talks to you about fairness! The winner takes all! The one in power has the final say! Brother-in-law! Do you understand me? So! Self-denial can only be bitter for yourself! It's still the same sentence! Whether in troubled times or prosperous times, it's just to live. It's all about living......"

Like Lao Tzu, Le Ge talked about the philosophy of life.

But Confucius! It's just unacceptable, always thinking that if human beings don't have a code of conduct, they will only get more chaotic and chaotic forever. So! No matter how chaotic the world is, I must refrain from self-denial, be a man in my duty, and behave in a proper manner.

I am who I am! I am a person with discipline, and I will not change my temperament and become undisciplined because of troubled times.

The gentleman is poor, and the villain is poor!
