After Xuan Qi finished speaking, even Long Qie, a big boss, fell silent.
Coming from a military background, he understands this situation best.
In the Qin Dynasty, although military merit was highly praised, Confucianism was an exception.
Confucius, the founder of Confucianism, was from the state of Lu, which was adjacent to the state of Qi. On the land of Qi and Lu, Qin, a country in the west, was always considered to be a barbarian.
And the ancestor of Xuan Qi was a member of the military, and he could be said to be the most hated person by Confucianists!
"Hey, that's not right! Then how come you became a disciple of Chun Yuyue, and you are also the first disciple?"
At this moment, Long Qie issued a soul question.
It's so annoying, there's no reason to keep it around and it's an eyesore!
When asked this question, Xuan Qi suddenly became a little embarrassed, as if he was very embarrassed and had to utter two words:
"Shuxiu!"
When these two words were spoken, Liu Bai understood immediately!
Good guy, it turns out it’s Pingyi Jinren!
The so-called "Shuxiu" is a unique Confucian apprenticeship ceremony, that is, when worshiping a master, the student prepares gifts or money to give to the master.
At the time of Confucius, meat strips were given.
But now, Confucianism is too lazy to cover up, and just collects the money directly.
But it makes sense when you think about it!
This Chunyu Yue was originally a doctor from Qi State. Qi State was defeated. How could he, a sour scholar from a defeated country, have any qualifications to participate in the political affairs of Qin Dynasty?
Doesn’t this still require money to clear the way?
"Chun Yuyue...has a flexible bottom line!"
Liu Bai smiled disdainfully.
In the officialdom, it is an unspoken rule to exploit subordinates and respect superiors, but I didn't expect that Chun Yuyue, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, who talked about "benevolence, justice and morality" every day, would have no scruples in doing such a thing. !
Of course, Liu Bai did not despise this unspoken rule. Wherever there are people, there will naturally be rivers and lakes, let alone temples.
What Liu Bai despises is Chun Yuyue's burning of bridges across rivers.
"Master, I think it is reasonable for Chun Yuyue to do this."
"Xuan Qi can only play the piano, don't they Confucians think about 'supporting the country' every day? Naturally, they will be rejected by the disciples!"
Long Qie on the side, for the first time, used his brain and showed understanding to Chun Yuyue.
If you pour gold juice, you will always pour out emotions. If you put it in a little bit, it can be considered reasonable.
However,
After saying these words, Xuan Qi's expression froze slightly, and he smiled bitterly: "You two, do you know why my name is Xuan Qi?"
Even if Liu Bai was smart, it would be impossible to guess this kind of problem.
And Xuan Qi did not embarrass the two of them. He asked and answered himself: "A certain person is not talented, but he has seven mysterious skills!"
"The first is called Five Rituals, the second is called Six Joys, the third is called Five Shootings, the fourth is called Five Controls, the fifth is called Six Books, and the sixth is called Nine Numbers!"
"And these seven..."
Xuan Qi smiled slightly and pointed at his head: "Smart!"
As these words came out, Long Qie on the side almost laughed out loud!
Say you are smart in front of your own Lord Liu? This Xuan Qi really loves to talk nonsense!
But Liu Bai had a stern look on his face!
The first six items are the Confucian Six Arts of a Gentleman! This is also in line with what Xuan Qi said, he is the most diligent among the teachers.
But this definition of 'smart' is too broad!
Since Xuan Qi has the confidence to incorporate this into his 'Seven Mysterious Techniques', this speaks volumes.
"The first six skills can still be tested, but these seven...how should I show them!"
Long Qie laughed and glanced at Liu Bai.
When he noticed that Mr. Liu had a serious look on his face, he immediately stopped talking.
Good guy, this guy is bragging, why does Liu Gong still take it seriously?
When he asked this question, Xuan Qi smiled slightly and stood up seriously to straighten his clothes!
Such an appearance made Long Qie startled: "Mr. Xuan Qi, I'm a rough man and I'm just talking nonsense! Otherwise... you talk to the young master and I'll shut up!"
Long Qie thought that it was his offense that made Xuan Qi unhappy, and he was leaving.
If this is really the case, I have really made a big mistake!
Unexpectedly, Xuan Qi did not leave. Instead, after straightening his clothes, he bowed to Liu Bai:
"Xuan Qi, pay your respects to Zuo Cheng, Prime Minister Liu!"
As soon as these words came out, Long Qie was dumbfounded!
Mr. Liu... was exposed?
Or when did I let it slip?
This bow directly made Long Qie start to doubt his life!
"You're really smart!"
A chuckle rang out, and Liu Bai stood up slowly: "Unfortunately, I don't like smart people very much."
"Long Qie, let's go!"
After saying this, Liu Bai turned around and left!
Long Qie became more doubtful about life.
Xuan Qi, on the other hand, still smiled and maintained a respectful attitude.
There was no farewell or anything said.
....
After walking out of Chunfeng Garden, Liu Bai frowned slightly and raised his eyes to the sky.
Sure enough, I underestimated everyone in the world.
The talented people in the world are like crucian carp crossing the river.
I just have a little historical memory from time travel, so what right do I have to look down on the people in the world?
"Mr. Liu, Xuan Qi is so powerful, why don't you accept him?"
Long Qie asked out of curiosity.
Isn’t Mr. Liu in his family short of people? This Xuan Qi is so powerful, wouldn't it be a good idea to take him on as a staff member?
"We won't accept it for now."
"He's still missing something."
Liu Bai shook his head slightly and said.
After saying these words, Long Qie was even more confused: "What is missing?"
"fire!"
"That fire in my heart!"
Liu Bai said calmly: "I'm afraid this person knew my identity when I said that 'a broken heart'."
"But he didn't express it directly. Instead, he told his own experience first! Not to mention bursting into tears, at least it used the word 'bleak'."
"The vision and the city are enough! But he lacks a fire burning for Great Qin in his heart!"
"In other words, he revealed his identity just to seek an opportunity to prove himself to Chun Yuyue."
After saying this, Long Qie scratched his head, still not understanding.
Why...do you have so many skills in employing people?
"Chun Yuyue makes me sick, but I am happy to do this. But this Xuan Qi will definitely be of great use in the future. If you use it now, it will only encourage the growth of the seedlings."
"If the talent of supporting the country is only used to disgust that old sour scholar, I am afraid that His Majesty the First Emperor will hold my head and slap my mouth, saying that I have wasted the natural resources!"
Liu Bai stroked the hair on his temples and took a deep breath: "Long Qi, go back and let Jin Yiwei investigate the life history of this Xuan Qi."
"promise!"
Although Long Qie didn't understand these twists and turns, he knew that he would just follow what Liu Gong ordered!
"Xuan Qi... let's not talk about the Six Arts of the Gentleman for the moment, and I am not interested in the true form. But... can you accept the first test of the true form?"
"A wise man returns home with a basket of food and a ladle of drink. In the back alleys, people can't bear their worries and will not change their happiness when they return."
"Don't let the truth disappoint you!"
Liu Bai murmured to himself, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised involuntarily.
Whether he can withstand this blow, and whether he can realize Liu Bai's high hopes for him, this... is what Liu Bai really wants to see about Xuan Qi's intelligence.
This is the case for children from poor families.
I have worked hard all my life, but it is not as good as the leader's words: "Leave this project to Xiao Li"!
But when opportunities arise, children from poor families are often caught and killed more than anyone else!
....
In Chunfeng Garden, Xuan Qi drank the remaining wine in one gulp, opened the screen and walked out.
Under the gaze of many 'good-hearted people' in Chunfeng Yuan, Xuan Qi walked towards Chunfeng Yuan's old man: "Sister Li, from now on... Xuan Qi will not come."
