Chapter 527: Eight Hundred Disciples Emerge

After seeing Zuo Qiu Ming finish speaking, he walked out, took out Lu Di's edict, and preached: "From today on, the Great Qi Classics Library and Museum will be established around Daming Lake, and the old Confucius of the Great Qi State will be given the title of Great Scholar and the first director of the Classics Library and Museum of the Qi State."

"Lao Laizi, Ji Zha, Bo Duan, Mo Zhai, Zuo Qiu Ming, Toad, Yi Qiu, Huqiu Zilin, Shen Tujia, Ji Xian, Gubu Ziqing, mourning it...... For the great scholars of the Qi country, he revised the great dictionary of the world with the old Kongqiu......"

Kong Qiu didn't listen to a word of these words, only the cool summer breeze in his ears, and only the willows in front of him.

It took Lu Di fifteen years to go up and down the ancient Yellow River, the ancient Yangtze River, and the ancient Huai River, and there were 72 countries that could appear in the history books.

He has seen too many strengths and weaknesses of the country, the glory and decline of too many countries, the excellent customs and habits of too many countries, and too many ......

So he wanted Confucius to help him record the beautiful things of these countries in a systematic way, hoping that he could pass it on to future generations, so that people in every inch of China would know that there were so many ancestors on the land under their feet, they were so beautiful and kind, so heroic and generous.

They should not be forgotten, they should not be forgotten just because they are weak.

To do this, one of the biggest prerequisites is needed, that is, words, and only words are the most fundamental inheritance of China.

With it, Huaxia will not break its roots.

But now there are too many types of writing in Zhou Tianxia, although the text of Qilu is similar, it is still different, not to mention the Chu script, and the Yue script, that kind of insect and bird script, it is really not something that ordinary people can understand and write.

Lu Di hopes that the only remaining bigwig in the Zhou world, a text expert, can edit and record the world's words and form the first big dictionary in China.

Lu Di is not short of money, paper, pen and ink, but what he lacks is people with such knowledge and energy.

There can be such a person in this world, Kong Qiu should be the first, but such a complicated and heavy thing makes an old man who is about to be obedient to the year compile, the pressure is too great, so Lu Di began to write letters, handwritten letters, one by one let his henchmen send to the sages in the opposition in various places, hoping that they can go out of the mountain to help him complete this great cause.

In fact, Lu Di didn't know that Kong Qiu had been doing these jobs for a long time, and every time he traveled, he would definitely refer to the dictionary.

Like some time ago, when he was defending the country, in a messy grave, Kong Qiu accidentally saw the turtle ornament text, and he was overjoyed, because he saw that it was a text left by his ancestor Yin Shang period.

So he ignored the opposition of his disciples and studied in that mass grave for a full month, until the news of Lu Di's rebellion reached his ears.

After the evening dinner.

The disciples who were about to become prominent came to the outside of Kongqiu's house one after another, and they knelt quietly under the moonlight, under the big peach tree full of peaches in the courtyard.

Kong Qiu probably knew that these disciples would do this, so he walked out of the house, took a mat in his hand, placed it under the door, and then knelt quietly opposite the disciples, the moonlight sprinkled on their bodies, sprinkled on the big peach trees in the courtyard, the wind moved, the mottled shadows moved, and the sweetness of ripe peaches lingered on the tips of everyone's noses.

Not saying it at the moment is better than saying it.

On the second day, a long dragon and 800 disciples took their respective appointment documents, took the carriage of two horses given by Lu Di himself, and took office.

Old Kongqiu was sent from the gate of his house to the outside of the city gate, and he looked and looked again until the figure of the eight hundred disciples in the military chariot disappeared from sight.

Yan Hui comforted the reluctant old Kongqiu: "Master, don't be sad, they went to the 'Ups and Downs of the Huan Sea', and one day, they will come back."

Kong Qiu turned his head to look at Yan Hui and did not answer, but sighed faintly: "Hui, you, you're really stupid!" ”

Yan Hui smirked: "Master, some people in this world want to change others, and some people want to change themselves, they are stupid, they just want to be a stupid person."

Old Kongqiu was stunned when he heard this, then shook his head and smiled bitterly, and finally patted Yan Hui's hand lightly as if he was in love and disgust: "You stupid person, but you can't be a stupid person anymore, compiling a big dictionary of civilization, but the task is huge, and I can't be busy as an old man."

Yan Hui knew what his master meant, and he said confidently: "Master, don't worry, Hui will pick up the lamp and ink for you."

Then he added: "The monarch asked Mr. Bian Que to see me yesterday, and he said that although I have left the root of the disease, as long as I take good care of it, it will be no problem for him to live for another thirty years."

Kong Qiu was stunned at first when he heard this, and then this lovely stubborn old man almost jumped up on the spot.

Because a piece of his heart is finally gone.

Yan Hui is not only his most beloved disciple, but also a confidant to some extent, and his affection for Yan Hui is even deeper than that of his beloved son Kong Li.

However, Yan returned home to a poor environment, and was weak when he was born, and he could not be treated in time when he got sick, so he left the root of the disease over the years.

Even more when he was in Chu a few years ago, he almost died, if it wasn't for his group meeting Lao Laizi in time, it would really be over.

The other unborn disciples behind Kong Qiu were also overjoyed when they heard this, and they congratulated Yan Hui and his master one after another.

These disciples have the same ambitions as Yan Hui, some are not enough to become famous because they think their talents and virtues are not enough, some just want to make Sun live their own happy little life, and some are too young......

Kong Qiu lamented the gang of people with the same ambition as Yan Hui, but he did not persuade them because of this; For those who just want to live their own happy little life, they smile helplessly.

Looking at the more than 2,000 disciples left from the old to the young, Kong Qiu was in a good mood and said: "The monarch rewarded me with 500 acres of land in the east of Lixia, and wrote me four words, cultivate and read the family."

"At first I didn't understand what the king meant, because you know that I am a man who does not like to farm, how can I understand the meaning of ploughing before reading?"

"Then I thought that since I have rewarded, then it can't be barren, what should be planted, last night under the moon I sat on the mat, saw the sweet and attractive peaches in the yard, I had an epiphany, people have hard work on the land will have autumn harvest, this is the same as reading and researching, how to receive sweet fruits in autumn without cultivation?"

"Today, I will take you to the 500 acres of land to take a walk and understand the joy of farming and reading."

The disciples were stunned at first when they heard this, the secret master had really changed, but they hurriedly bowed down and happily followed Kong Qiu to the ground.
