When Zhu Su found Fang Xiaoru angrily, the man was in the room, thinking hard in front of a pile of paper. When he saw Zhu Su, he was extremely pleasantly surprised:
"When did my master come back? My disciple didn't greet him. It's really..." Fang Xiaoru hurriedly bowed down, his admiration for Zhu Su in his eyes was undisguised.
Zhu Su ignored it and looked around the room. He saw that there were scraps of pen and ink everywhere, and Fang Xiaoru was also unkempt. As Zhu Biao said, he looked like he was possessed.
"Master came just in time. The disciple has many doubts..." Seeing Zhu Su's face covered with frost, Fang Xiaoru didn't care. He took out a few pieces of paper full of words from the revolving room, presented them to Zhu Su and said, "Look at this. Department, you said before..."
Zhu Su just looked at him coldly. At this time, Xiang Deng, Gou'er and others had already followed him, so he ordered: "Xiang Deng, go."
"Since Mr. Fang wants to enlighten himself behind closed doors, let him do it properly."
"Take someone to lock him up in the Bifeng Temple on the mountain. If you don't figure out the reason, you won't let him out of the temple!"
"This!" Xiang Deng was startled. This was to put Uncle Fang under house arrest! But this was the first order given by the Fifth Highness after his return. He did not dare to disobey it, so he had to obey it respectfully.
Fang Xiaoru was taken away by King Wu's guards. He struggled along the way and still wanted to "ask" Zhu Su. Zhu Su remained silent and just rubbed his forehead.
This guy had stabbed himself in such a big hole, and now he seemed completely unaware of it... Zhu Su couldn't help but get furious.
In short, let’s lock this culprit on the mountain first, and then slowly think about any remedies...
"Your Highness." Knowing that this person was in a bad mood, the dog's voice became cautious.
"Uncle Chengyi and Lord Song Lian would like to see you."
Zhu Su's whole body tensed up, he was about to come to investigate. He did not dare to neglect, stood up and said: "Uncle Chengyi and Master Song, please move to the main hall to serve as prime ministers."
"I have just returned from a long trip. I should take a bath and wash myself before seeing you two gentlemen again, so as not to be disrespectful."
The dog responded with a respectful response, and Xiangdeng was also in a hurry, asking someone to prepare warm soup, clothes and other items. So Zhu Su led a group of people back to the mansion in a mighty manner.
He originally wanted to delay some time and come up with an explanation that could be explained in the past, but no matter how much Zhu Su thought about it while taking a bath, he couldn't think of any better explanation.
Fortunately, Liu Bowen was well aware of current affairs and well versed in the art of self-preservation, so he would not easily become an enemy of the Zhu family. Just Song Lian...
Song Lian is the leader of the Confucian sect today. If Song Lian can be persuaded, there may be room for change.
On the contrary, if he cannot be convinced, he will become a public enemy of Confucianism in the future...
Thinking of Song Lian's serious face when he was teaching, Zhu Su felt a headache. He rubbed his brows and appeared in front of the main hall, and sure enough he saw Song Lian sitting on the chair with a solemn face, exuding a feeling similar to the pressure of future head teachers.
Beside him, Liu Bowen was smiling and sipping from a tea cup.
"Your Highness, Fifth Prince." Seeing Zhu Su coming in, the two of them stood up and saluted. It's just that Liu Bowen's tone was affectionate, while Song Lian's tone was extremely stiff, as if he was suppressing his anger.
"Two gentlemen, please sit down." Zhu Su lamented, scolding Fang Xiaoru once again in his heart, and then squeezed out a smile and said to the two of them: "Two gentlemen have worked hard to take care of the palace. I should have gone to visit you first." That’s it, sir. I’m sorry to have you two gentlemen waiting for a long time.”
"Haha, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. The tea in His Highness's house is very sweet. I sit here and enjoy the tea, and I don't feel like I have been waiting for a long time." Liu Bowen said with a smile.
Zhu Su nodded and was about to take over the conversation and continue chatting with Liu Bowen in peace and quiet. Song Lian on the other side couldn't bear to hear this and said bluntly: "Does Your Highness the Fifth Highness want to destroy our Confucian sect?"
"Could it be that the "Analects of Confucius" given to me by my veteran minister has no merit at all? Your Highness has no intention of carrying forward the knowledge that the sages have worked out, but why do you come up with such fallacies to challenge me? The foundation of famous religion?"
Zhu Su's expression froze. It seems that Song Lian will not give him a chance to make decisions about him. He sighed, turned to Song Lian and said, "Master Song, if I say that what Fang Xiaoru said is not my idea, can you believe it?"
"Your Highness is a noble man from Tianhuang, so you should not speak nonsense." Song Lian's old face was still serious, "Xizhi (Fang Xiaoru's nickname) was my disciple before, and I know his abilities. Although those views are often evil, but at his level , is still far from such a state.”
"On the other hand, Your Highness is talented and learned from heaven, but he has always disdained Confucianism..." Song Lian stopped here, but Zhu Su knew what he meant.
Fang Xiaoru is a good boy, and he will learn whatever he wants. He will definitely not fall into this crooked way by himself. On the other hand, you, Zhu Su, were uneducated and unskilled when you were in the main hall, and you even made such a shocking "Wanyu". If you weren't the one who started these crooked ways, who else could be there?
Zhu Su was speechless and choked. Who knows that he has a criminal record, even if he jumps into the Yellow River, he can't clean it up.
"Your Highness, Fifth Highness, Confucianism is complex and profound, and it is the foundation of the great road." Song Lian said. "The Master traveled around the country and worked tirelessly to have three thousand disciples. Dong Sheng established the Three Cardinal Guidelines and established the Five Constants, so that China could prosper for thousands of years. As for Zhuzi, in the words of the sage, he understood the principles of heaven and earth and followed the ethics of all things."
"Thousands of years of inheritance and a thorough study of the principles of Confucius are to achieve world unity. Now that we have finally reached this situation, even if Your Highness does not like Confucianism, you should not destroy it with monstrous words!"
"Your Highness, you are a smart child. I once placed great hopes on you. But now I really don't know why you are so hostile to the famous religion and want to destroy the thousands of years of hard work of your ancestors!"
"It should be noted that if the famous religion is destroyed, the sky will collapse and the earth will fall apart. At that time, the people will no longer be the people, and the country will no longer be a country!"
Song Lian was heartbroken, and the first few words contained a hint of questioning emotions. Later, they were full of sincerity. In the depth of the words, he even burst into tears. He was heartbroken and shed tears because a smart young man like Zhu Su fell into heresy. .
"..." Zhu Su was silent. Song Lian worked so hard, how could he not know? But this veteran has raised Confucianism to such a high level, but it also makes him feel a little bit stuck in his throat.
Seeing Song Lian looking at him with a pair of old eyes, Zhu Su thought for a moment and asked: "Master Song, in that case. The student has had several questions in his mind for a long time. Can Master Song help the student clear up his doubts?"
"Your Highness, please speak. I will tell you everything!" Song Lian perked up, thinking that Zhu Su had repented, so he cheered up with great vigor.
"Master said that if the famous religion is destroyed, the sky will collapse and the earth will fall apart. But in the past, during the time of Yao and Shun, there was no Confucian teaching in the world, but the Confucian school has always admired it and yearned for it?"
