Chapter 622: Zilu is coming
Everything is safe and smooth, and time passes unconsciously, which seems to make people lose the concept of time.
Confucius's career had a smooth period, and everything went well. In retrospect, I felt that time was very fast, and it passed in a flash.
He spends most of the day in the Lu Palace or Ji Mansion, and at night, whenever he is free, he has to give weekly rituals to substitute teachers and senior students.
Usually at home, he spends most of his time writing or copying books. Write down your reading experience and copy the books you borrowed.
Most of the books in Confucius's house were not bought in bookstores, but! Transcribe it down. The books that were burned were generally not done by him, but by students. He just copied it, and didn't burn it. Because! Burning takes time. Not only to burn, but also to ink, is very troublesome and time-consuming.
In the later years of Confucius, he stopped copying books and handed them all over to his students. Afterward! It is said that most of them are Yan Huigan. The burning is not Yan Hui burning, it is generally someone else.
Because! You can't make a mistake in copying! And burn! You can't go wrong.
On the side of the school, there is no need for Confucius to worry about it, everything is managed by Lege.
During this period of peace, many historical figures came to Confucius's private school, one of which was Zilu.
Zilu, that is, the person "Zhong You" or "You" that Confucius often mentioned in the Analects.
Zilu followed Confucius for the earliest and longest time. The relationship between Confucius and Zilu is something that I don't have to say just now. Confucius gave an objective and fair evaluation of Zilu.
Zilu came to study with Confucius under the introduction of Fang Jishi.
When Zilu followed his father Ji Ying to travel, he happened to meet Fang Jishi on the way. Fang Jishi saved Zilu's life, and asked Zilu to come to Confucius and follow Confucius to study.
When safari is not life, it is better to read more books so as not to be ignorant of life.
Therefore! This year, Zilu came to find Fang Jishi, but he didn't find a benefactor. On the way, I happened to meet Confucius. Because I didn't know Confucius, unpleasantness happened.
Later, I found out that the person who competed with me that day was Confucius, and Zilu didn't want to study with him.
Confucius also felt that Zilu had a problem with his brain, disrespected him, and was too lazy to accept him. Furthermore! He basically didn't care much about the school. So! He didn't care if Zilu came to study or not.
Le Ge found out that this person was Zilu, so he did a lot of work in it, so he left Zilu behind.
To know! When he was on a safari, he met Zilu's father Ji Ying by chance, and lived in Zilu's house for a while.
At first, he really didn't recognize Zilu yet. Later, as soon as I talked about the situation, I remembered Zilu.
Because of some years, Zilu also forgot about the music. But! Speaking of the past, he remembered it again.
Because I know Lege, Lege is the person in charge of private learning, so! Zilu stayed.
The first encounter between Zilu and Confucius is still worth mentioning.
Zilu came to Qufu City to find his benefactor Fang Jishi, and heard that Fang Jishi's family did not live in the Lu Palace and moved to the countryside, so he went to the countryside. Outcome! No cornerstone found.
Fang Jishi was not at home either, and he did not find the right place.
Ancient times were so sparsely populated that you couldn't even find anyone asking for directions. So! Zilu accidentally bumped into the river, which is where Confucius used to practice "qi-holding gong".
There was a small river near Confucius's hometown, and whenever the young Confucius was depressed and aggrieved, he would jump into the river to practice "holding qigong".
When Zilu came over this day, he happened to meet Confucius practicing "qi-holding gong" in the river, and he thought that Confucius would not want to commit suicide!
Just when he was in a hurry, he suddenly found a stone table on the river embankment, on which were Confucius's clothes and a sword. Seeing that Confucius's sword was beautiful, he couldn't help but run over.
He was also a sword lover and carried a sword with him. It's just that! This sword of his is not a sword, it is also an ordinary decorative sword bought in the market. Because it is a decorative sword, it is gorgeous and not useful. Plainly! It is used for pretending.
Just as he was about to pick up Confucius's sword, Confucius emerged from the river.
Confucius suddenly found that someone was going to get his sword, and he became anxious on the spot, wiping the river water from his face while shouting towards Zilu. That means: Don't touch my sword!
At that moment! Confucius regarded Zilu as a thief.
I thought: Where did this person come from? Did you already aim at my sword?
To know! This sword is a sword from the Qi Guan clan!
This sword is not just a sword, it is also a monumental sword! If the sword is lost, the Qi official clan still doesn't blame him?
Zilu heard Confucius's shout, and did not leave. But! He couldn't help but pick up his sword and look at it.
He is not a thief, there is no need to run away. He liked the other party's sword, so he didn't care about picking it up and looking at it. Outcome! Seeing that it was a sword, he was too excited to help himself.
Soon! Confucius climbed ashore from the river and ran back.
"Hehehe! I thought you couldn't kill yourself! Zilu looked at Confucius without taboo at all and said.
In his hand, he also held the sword of Confucius. With a scabbard in one hand and a sword in the other. It's true! Love.
"You? Who are you? When Confucius came closer, he saw Zilu holding a sword in his hand, and he instinctively guarded against it, but did not dare to step forward.
It's not that I'm afraid of death, but I'm afraid of accidents.
In this troubled world, any accident can happen!
If someone else takes a fancy to your sword, they might kill you! So! It's better to be careful!
"You? You? Oh! Shame on you! You? Why don't you even wear clothes? You? Yes! Only then did Zi Lu notice that Confucius was naked. So! I couldn't help but scream.
"Me?" Only then did Confucius notice that he was not wearing clothes.
Isn't it? There are no people in this radius for several miles, so in order to save trouble, they go down the river naked. Outcome! Suddenly a man came out of the grass?
Confucius hurriedly ran sideways to the stone table, grabbed his clothes and got into the grass. After putting on his clothes, he came out, and then he got up in a hurry and looked towards the stone table. OK! The man with his sword was still there, and he didn't run.
Seeing that the other party did not mean to take the sword and leave, Confucius was relieved.
At that moment! He felt that the character of the person in front of him was okay!
In this troubled world, there are really very few people who have such a good opportunity not to take advantage.
I thought, "If this man is not of good character?" So! Definitely have a problem with the brain!
"This sword of yours is a sword!" Zilu lifted the sword and said to Confucius who came over.
"Yes!" Confucius replied, "This is a sword given by Duke Lu!" It is recorded in the annals of the Lu Kingdom! Oh! That sword of yours is beautiful too! ……”
Talking! Confucius pointed to the sword at his waist and wore the sword.
