Chapter 697: Kong Qiu
The concubine had intentions, but she couldn't help it. It stands to reason that in such a situation, Zhou Shaoyu should work harder to get closer to each other and increase his good feelings to persuade him to leave, but Zhou Shaoyu suddenly left Yue Guo with Wei.
Wei has been practicing swordsmanship for a while, and almost everything that can be taught has been taught, and he doesn't have to run to the barracks all day long, and he doesn't have to worry about other things, he is basically idle, and Zhou Shaoyu still has the attitude of walking around and taking a look, so he naturally doesn't want to stay in Yue Country all the time to waste time.
As for the sister, Xi Shi must not be able to take it away this time, at most add one Zheng Dan, Zhou Shaoyu also thought about it, anyway, Xi Shi can't take it away, it doesn't matter if Zheng Dan can take it away this time, and it may not be possible to take people away this time.
It seems that Zheng Dan can be taken away with more effort, but sometimes it can be the opposite.
Think about it, Zheng Dan is bound to a mansion and is not free, entertainment is limited, and there is a lot of leisure, which can be described as boring, in addition to the training he should have, it is to chat and play with his good friend Xi Shi, and to swordsmanship with Wei Lianlian.
It's easy to come up with an existence that can get in and out of this place and is bold enough not to be afraid of being known by the top about what the consequences will be, and it's funny and funny when it's done, and you can also make a lot of eating, drinking, and fun, and that feeling is basically the feeling of walking in the desert and meeting an oasis.
Although the time is not long, but it is also a clear spring, I am used to it, and suddenly it is gone, and I return to the state of boredom again, how awkward? In particular, even Wei has gone with this, and even learned swordsmanship, and life is simply more boring.
When the time comes, Zhou Shaoyu will run back and hook up again, and the chance of making trouble will be greater.
So Zhou Shaoyu took Wei to leave very suddenly, and left the next day, as for Gou Jian? Well, just send someone to say hello and flash immediately, just say go out for a trip and come back in a few months.
Considering that the Wuyue culture is about the same existence, so in a limited time, Zhou Shaoyu did not go north into the Wu State, but left Huiji to the west into Yuhang, and then continued to the west into the Chu State, and then went north all the way through Shucheng, Shouchun, Juyang, originally intended to enter the Song State directly, to see what the country that claimed to inherit the Yin Shang tradition was like, how was he pointed out the wrong way, and entered the junction of the Chen State and the Cai State.
Chu State didn't do much to stay, not much curiosity, although Chu State has been strengthening etiquette and other measures since then, and there have been many talents, but in the final analysis, at this moment, only the Central Plains is orthodox, and even, Chu State is also a great rebel existence, because he is the king.
This is the saying that there is no emperor, the biggest is the king of Zhou, and the others are all subjects of various titles, but the people of Chu didn't give any face at all, and called it to you directly, and they said, since you call us Nanban, then your etiquette system can't control us, because I'm a barbarian, just come by myself, I'll be called the king, what's wrong?
Well, it's quite individual.
"Huh? There's someone in front, let's put the saddle stirrups away first. From a distance, Zhou Shaoyu saw the crowd surging in front of him, so he stopped his horse and signaled to Wei.
This behavior maintains the speed of horsepower, it is a person and two rides, you can change it, if it is a person in the suburbs who gallops directly over, it will be forgotten, if there are a little more people, Zhou Shaoyu will first collect the saddle or something.
Although this thing does not have any scientific and technological content, but its appearance, the impact on the cavalry is cross-era, if in this era is still dominated by chariots, stirrups appeared, and it was easy to achieve riding and shooting, then the impact on the overall pattern was not too big, it was not good, there was no Qin State behind, and the herdsmen outside the Saiwai could directly turn the sky N years in advance.
Wei nodded, no matter how innocent she was, she knew that Zhou Shaoyu was not simple, and since she decided to follow others, it would be good for the man to make the decision, and there was no need to object to these things.
The things were put away, but after getting closer to see the situation clearly, Zhou Shaoyu hesitated, without him, there were indeed a lot of people in front, holding swords in their hands, and many of them were wearing leather armor, obviously they were all big-headed soldiers, so they did not occupy the road, but surrounded the foot of a mountain next to the road, as if they were blocking something.
For the atmosphere of the soldiers in ancient times, Zhou Shaoyu didn't want to gamble, the army transited, not to mention the enemy country, sometimes even if it was his own country, it was looted, in case he saw Zhou Shaoyu and Wei have bad intentions, who would he reason with?
If you are afraid, you are not afraid, and it is trouble.
Just thinking about going around the road, everyone turned around, and then thought, eh? No, this is the border of Chen Cai, and although those soldiers are dressed in everything, from the perspective of camping or something, it doesn't seem to belong to the same force, in other words, Chen Guo and Cai Guo are surrounded together, this scene, isn't it familiar?
Climb up a nearby hill to look, and see that there are dozens of people surrounded, and the middle arch guard is an old man with a long beard who is dressed quite elegantly, and that's it, mainly because this old man is really tall, and he stands out from the crowd, you must know that the average height of men in this year is only more than one meter six, and this old man, how can he be more than one meter nine or more.
yes, I didn't run away, yes!
Zhou Shaoyu was stunned, he really didn't expect to encounter this thing if he took the wrong road. Isn't this Confucius trapped in Chen Cai? The reason for the incident is that Confucius has great talent and great reputation, King Zhao of Chu invited him to go to Chu State, Confucius was invited to go, and then Chen Cai and the two countries were unhappy.
The state of Chu has a vast territory and strong national strength, and Chen and Cai are two small countries, and Confucius is famous and learned, if he works for the state of Chu and makes the state of Chu stronger, then how can a small country like theirs survive? So they sent troops together to surround it.
Because of his fame, he didn't dare to kill directly, for fear of being infamy, but this posture was obviously intended to encircle it and starve to death, and later Duanmuci rushed to Chu and asked Chu to send troops to rescue, so he successfully escaped.
Although it is not very real now, it is estimated that they have been trapped for four or five days with a sluggish appearance.
Exploring the footsteps in the vicinity again, it looks like it was not blocked here at the beginning, but chased back and forth, and finally blocked here.
Why don't you go and have a look? Zhou Shaoyu pinched his chin.
That's Confucius, regardless of whether he supports him or dislikes him, anyway, the doctrine he left behind has a huge impact on later China, well, of course, there must be a lot of distorted meaning. In short, Zhou Shaoyu is still more interested in talking to Confucius himself, and more importantly, maybe he can also exchange basic books?
Since they decided, Zhou Shaoyu and Wei led the horse to approach tentatively.
"Stop, and if you want to leave quickly, you must not linger here." Sure enough, someone still stopped drinking.
Of course, Zhou Shaoyu didn't understand, originally, at this time, the pronunciation of the characters in various countries is different, and when he first crossed over, he was still in Yueguo, learning the Wuyue dialect, and it was not even a language family.
But isn't this the existence of Youwei, this one is from the Jin Kingdom, it's no problem, and he didn't directly translate for Zhou Shaoyu at the moment, but stood up and shouted: "Presumptuous, this is the branch of the Handan branch of the Zhao branch of the Jin Kingdom, don't be rude!" ”
However, it seems, there is no one to give face?
"What did you just say?" Zhou Shaoyu asked curiously. After waiting for Wei to explain, he was instantly speechless: "You haven't paid attention to the situation in the Jin Kingdom in the past few years, have you?" ”
It is true that the previous overlord was the Jin State, but now the Jin State is in chaos, in addition, although the Handan clan is a small sect divided by the Zhao clan, the people have long been dissatisfied with the head of the Zhao clan.
Although the Handan clan is a small sect, its strength is not too weak, but it is not very honest. So Zhao Ying, the head of the Zhao family, wanted to weaken the Handan clan, but the latter was unwilling, which caused a war, which was originally only an internal matter of the Zhao clan, but it was the fuse of a super war.
The six secretaries of the Jin State who controlled the government all participated in the war, not only that, but even Qi Guo and Zheng Guo also came to join in the fun, trying to get a piece of the pie, and even Zhou Tianzi participated in it, okay, it's just messy.
But now it's almost the end of the fight, and the defeat of the Fan clan and the Bank of China clan on the opposing side of the Zhao clan has been revealed, not to mention the small Handan clan, so at this time, it is too strange to say that the branch Handan clan is still a branch. Could it be that this Nizi is from the Handan clan? That's why you say that?
Scared is not scared people, but no one doubts this identity, there are few impersonations in these years, and they are pretending to be a child of a family who is about to lose, or a branch, it is not necessary either, listening to this statement, it is also possible for the children of the Handan clan who have been staying outside to learn the arts.
No matter what the Handan clan is, how is it a big country doctor, the surface face still has to be given, and the people didn't intend to be embarrassed, but they were just forbidden to get close to that side.
However, the problem is that Zhou Shaoyu just wants to go in and chat with Confucius and his idler disciples.
After several discussions to no avail, he finally sent some silk to make way. Earlier, it was a waste of so much time.
"This old man, so tall! Strong enough. Getting closer, Zhou Shaoyu was amazed in his heart, anyway, his small body, which was not even 1.8 meters tall, had to raise his head to look. I have long heard that Confucius's father is a famous wrestler, and it seems that Confucius has inherited it, but he has not taken the martial arts road at all.
Seeing someone coming, Confucius and his entourage of dozens of people all got up, and at first glance they looked a little bluffing, well, provided that they were cleaner and didn't look so weak.
"Dare to ask Your Excellency, but is it in front of Confucius of Lu State?" Looking at the guarded posture of others, Zhou Shaoyu didn't get too close, and asked from a distance, of course, Dewei came to translate.
Confucius is old in the end, and his body still looks strong, but his strength is worse after all, especially after being hungry for several days, he is even weaker, he opens his mouth, and he doesn't hear the sound anyway, and then the disciples around him relay it.
"It's the family teacher, I'm Zhongyou, the word Zilu, I don't know what Your Excellency says?" A middle-aged man with a sword replied on guard.
This sentence Wei translated it, but the name is not as good as anything else, except for a sub-word, I didn't understand it at all, so I didn't know that the person in front of me was the most brave Zilu among Confucius's apprentices.
This is also a disadvantage, there are many famous and talented disciples under Confucius, of course Zhou Shaoyu is interested in exchanges, such as Duanmu Cizi Gong, but this goods went to Chu to move the rescue troops, not there. Anyway, if you can't recognize people, who knows who you're talking to? I just know that it must be a celebrity. That is, Confucius is better to say.
After all, the word 'zi' is not a name, but an honorific title, people call Kong Qiu, really say the word Qiu, Zhou Shaoyu wants to catch blind, even the pronunciation of the word 'Kong' happens to be learned to know how to pronounce, and it is also the pronunciation of the Vietnamese Chinese dialect.
Fortunately, after pondering the name Zhou Shaoyu for a long time, I finally knew how to pronounce it, as well as Zijin's words, otherwise Wei would have to be blind, because she couldn't translate.
"Zhou Shaoyu, a citizen of the mountains and wilderness, Zijin, heard that Confucius was trapped here, and came to help." As soon as these words came out, people's attitudes really improved a lot.
As a result, before he could say a few words, Mr. cooked a big pot of porridge over a fire, and by the way, put some shredded meat in it to replenish his strength. As soon as the fragrance came out, a group of sages who would be famous in later generations gurgled in their stomachs, and their saliva almost fell off.
Of course, Confucianism is the most important gift, and no matter how greedy you are, you have to be reserved.
However, the grace of a meal should be reciprocated, even if it is not so exaggerated, then in this thought, the effect is still quite good, at least no one is on guard, and even quite grateful, no way, try it for a few days if you are hungry?
After eating, Confucius's strength recovered a lot, and he also had the energy to chat and discuss with Zhou Shaoyu, but Zhou Shaoyu found that no, he couldn't talk about this anymore!
Why? It is not because it is inconvenient to need a translator, but because of ideological problems.
Even if later generations have completely abandoned the Confucian strategy of governing the country, after all, it has been passed down for thousands of years, and the influence has penetrated into all aspects, but many times I don't know it, and Zhou Shaoyu, who knows a little more about Confucianism, will definitely not be able to be everyone, but the problem is here.
At this time, it was the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucius was not still dead, the Confucian theory was not completely perfected, and then thousands of years of accumulation from generation to generation gradually became more and more perfect, perhaps there are many distortions and misunderstandings, but I have to deny that this is the painstaking research of thousands of years and generations, in other words, what everyone knows, is the essence of the essence.
For example, Zhang Zai of the Song Dynasty proposed 'to establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations'! What a mind, but can Zhou Shaoyu say? It must not be, if it is another doctrine, it is just that, this is Confucianism, the core idea that has ruled China for thousands of years, eh, expose some things in advance, and use the head of Confucius to give you the same and improve it every minute.
Well, the more perfect Confucianism is freshly baked in advance, and God knows what the impact will be, which is much more than directly slaughtering people.
This can't be said, that can't be said, and many can't even say the words of his disciple Mencius, because they haven't come out yet. With such a big restriction, then this chat is more aggrieved, so how can you talk?
In his opinion, although Zhou Shaoyu was vague and wanted to speak several times, it was obvious that he had studied his knowledge and had his own ideas and opinions, and he could listen to different opinions, but Zhou Shaoyu just didn't say it, and there was no way.
