Many fish and Lian Po hurried to the school. Who dared to make trouble in the school?

I saw a thin old man with a long beard, holding a sharp sword, chasing Xun Shuang.

Xun Shuang ran away with his head in his arms, not daring to fight back.

As if seeing a savior, the students paid their respects to many fish and Lian Po.

"Female Sir, this old man beat my wife as soon as he came in."

"Master will not let us interfere in this matter!"

"My lord, my master is going to be beaten to death!"

On the other side, the old man's servants were not surprised and were quite indifferent.

Xun Shuang is not a good-tempered person, so there must be a reason why he tolerates this old man so much.

Sure enough, the old man shouted: "You bastard, why don't you kneel down to me?"

Xun Shuang ducked behind many fish and shouted: "My lord is in front, I will obey your order."

Lord? Many fish have sluggish expressions, because they really want this talent, but it seems that there is a lot of trouble behind the talent.

The old man is old, but his eyes are bright and full of wisdom.

The old man looked Lian Po up and down, then turned to ask Xun Shuang: "Do you think Mr. Xin Ping is your master?"

Xun Shuang was proud, with a hint of a good show: "No, my master is the girl in front of you."

The old man accidentally tore off one of his beards, sighed, and bowed solemnly to the many fishes: "My dear, I'm naughty, please don't take me seriously."

Many fish don't play their cards according to common sense: "A gentleman's words can make it difficult for a horse to catch up. The young master has reached the age of being crowned, how can he say it jokingly?"

The old man pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "What you say makes sense, little lady."

Xun Shuang was dumbfounded. It was just a joke. If he wanted to recognize his master, he would have done so long ago. Why wait until now?

Seeing that the old man was reasonable and righteous, many fish asked respectfully: "May I ask what your name is?"

The old man put away the sword and handed it to the old servant: "Xun Kuang."

"It's actually Xunzi? I'm not expecting him from afar, so I asked him to host a banquet." Lian Po heard that it was Xunzi. What a coincidence. Isn't this just fate?

In today's world, who in Confucianism and Taoism can compare with Xunzi?

A truly famous teacher!

Many fish followed Lianpo and Xunzi respectfully, showing their full posture.

Xun Shuang coyly moved closer to the many fishes and whispered: "Little lady, just now..."

"Shuang, don't worry. Although you are in a hurry to accept your master, we have been together for a long time, and I know your personality and talent well. I will not underestimate you because of this. In the future, we will be able to get along harmoniously and create great achievements together."

Many fish pretended not to understand the hesitation and regret in Xun Shuang's eyes, and took the opportunity to finalize the matter in a few words.

Xun Shuang was as dejected as an eggplant beaten by frost.

Mrs. Lian learned that she was actually going to entertain Xunzi, the wine sacrificer from Jixia Academy, so she was very attentive and prepared wheat rice, meat and breast soup, chicken soup and one of the Eight Delicacies.

The Lian family's pounded pork is made from deer tenderloin, which is beaten repeatedly to remove the tendons in the meat. After it is cooked, it is taken out and kneaded into a puree before eating.

The deer used were hunted by the soldiers who went up to the mountains early in the morning for practice. This way, the meat produced is the most delicious.

Xunzi was particularly fond of this dish and praised it highly.

Xunzi pays attention to etiquette. During this meal, many fish sat upright and observed the utmost etiquette.

After the banquet, Lian Po and Xunzi drank in the courtyard while admiring the moon.

"Although my girl is young, she is smart and sensible. She is truly a rare talent." Lian Po praised.

Xun Kuang took a sip and said: "Although my son has an out-of-touch personality, he has been familiar with poetry and books since he was a child and has covered a wide range of topics. When he was in the academy, he was able to help me give lectures and talk to many talented people without falling behind."

The two looked at each other and raised their glasses to drink.

Lian Po lamented: "The hearts of parents in the world are pitiful."

"My little lady is deeply loved by Xinping-kun."

Seeing that Xun Kuang had misunderstood, Lian Po explained: "The girl's name is Duoyu, but she is actually the adopted daughter of Lin Xiangru. I saw that she was extremely intelligent, so I accepted her as my disciple."

Xun Kuang was surprised: "Accepting a disciple? Learning the art of war?"

Lian Po said sternly: "That's true. The girl is born with talents, but she likes to take the wrong side of the sword. Lian Po kindly asks Xunzi to stay for a while and teach the girl well."

After finishing speaking, Lian Po actually knelt down and bowed.

Such solemnity and caring heart moved Xunzi: "Good!"

The next day, many fish learned early in the morning that they had an actual Confucian master.

Thinking of Xunzi in history, who had served as a wine sacrificer many times, he must have rich teaching experience, so many fish were bold enough to gather the wool to the end.

"To meet Xunzi, why don't we go to the school? First, the students have admired Xunzi for a long time. Secondly, we should go to see Xun Shuang to appease our father."

Many Fish persuaded Xunzi and ordered people to inform Zhao Zheng.

Xunzi glanced at this cunning little lady and thought that her original intention was not bad, so he followed the current and went to see if the rebellious son had misled his children.

In the school, the sound of books was audible, and Xun Shuang sat on the podium, solemn and solemn, not as lively as in the past.

Xun Kuang nodded secretly.

Many Fish invited Xunzi: "Why don't you teach a lesson and let the students bathe in the glory of Confucianism?"

The road back to Zhao was long, and Xun Kuang had not preached for a long time. He felt itchy and impulsively walked to the podium and began to teach.

At first, Xun Kuang talked about how to encourage learning: "Therefore, if you don't climb high mountains, you don't know how high the sky is; if you don't go to the deep streams, you don't know how thick the earth is; if you don't listen to the last words of the former kings, you don't know the greatness of knowledge."

Later, under the deliberate guidance of Duo Yu and Zhao Zheng, Xun Kuang thought about his declining official career and simply talked about his ideas for governance in this small world.

"Those who use the country will be rich if they gain the power of the people; they will gain the territory where the people die; they will be honored if they gain the reputation of the people. Those who gain three things will be rewarded by the world; those who gain three things will be killed and the world will come down to them. He who is brought back by the world is called a king. When the world comes to an end, it is called death.”

Zhao Zheng was fascinated by what he heard and gained a lot.

Xun Kuang was deeply impressed and valued this smart young man who could draw inferences from one instance to another.

In the end, this class actually became Zhao Zheng’s exclusive one-on-one class.

After class, Zhao Zheng followed Xun Kuang and humbly asked for help. One was willing to learn and the other was willing to teach. They complemented each other.

At dinner time, Xun Kuang wanted to accept Zhao Zheng as his disciple, but suddenly found that he did not know the name of the young master.

"Zhao Zheng, Qin's hostage Zizheng." Zhao Zheng introduced himself neither humble nor arrogant.

Xun Kuang froze. How could he be Qin's hostage?

Xun Kuang was very embarrassed.

Everyone thinks that Qin is a country of tigers and wolves, and the Qin army is the army of tigers and wolves.

In the eyes of Confucians, the Western Qin Dynasty, which emerged from the army, was by no means an orthodox regime and could only rely on force to show off its strength.

Moreover, the whole Qin State regarded Legalism as the model, but Confucianism and Legalism were at odds with each other, so "Confucian scholars will not enter Qin" became a common rule among Confucian disciples.

"Please Xunzi teach me!" Zhao Zheng knelt down, folded his hands on the ground, and slowly lowered his head to the ground.

Xunzi was in a dilemma. If it weren't for this status, he would definitely accept this beautiful son.

"what do you want to learn?"

"Learn the art of an emperor, learn how to cultivate your character, manage your family, govern your country, and bring peace to the world!" Zhao Zheng always maintained his posture of looking at his head.

Xunzi sat on his knees and thought for a long time, clearly remembering his past teachings.

More than half of my life has passed, but it is difficult to relax my ideas. Is this knowledge going to be brought into the loess?

Although Zhao Zheng is a hostage from Qin, he is very talented, even better at his young age!

If one day, Zhao Zheng can return to Qin...
