With one of the three talismans left by Cao Zhe, Wang Jingshu quickly made a comeback.
It's just that this matter is not a competition after all, and the winner and loser are clear-cut.
In Wang Jingshu's heart, the cracks always existed, and her close friends also split into two groups.
One group continued to support Wang Jingshu, while the other group was rejected and could only wipe tears from the sidelines.
The harem of Neptune is divided first.
It also seems to indicate an unfavorable result.
Ling Susu, who was sitting not far away and 'watching' the whole battle, had no intention of intervening.
She understands Cao Zhe's arrangements.
In this game, the focus is not actually on Wang Jingshu. She has always been the trigger.
What's more, Wang Jingshu is the sister of the Master after all, and no one dares to cross the line.
At this moment, the battle against Confucianism has just begun.
Wang Jingshu's incident is just the beginning, not the end.
"This is not your mistake, but it is actually a great misfortune for our Confucian school. I don't know what year or month, the Confucian practice has become a state of cultivation with a single wheel of awe-inspiring energy. The great Confucian people do not cultivate themselves or establish virtues. They only use a little In terms of the aura, it is extremely ridiculous." An old man from Qufu stood up tremblingly with a cane, and then said in a measured tone.
This statement seems to be excusing Wang Jingshu, but in fact it goes beyond the framework and directly targets the entire Confucianism system.
Indeed, nowadays, a person's knowledge and character are all determined by the level of Confucianism and cultivation.
In the past, if those wealthy families who had passed down poems and books to their families could not bring out outstanding Confucianism cultivators to support their reputations, their reputations would plummet and appear unworthy of their reputation.
In fact, for those who are full of gossip, Wang Jingshu's incident is nothing.
Secretly, there are things that are even more difficult to mention, and they have been experienced.
Wang Jingshu is a target!
It was not only the cause of Cao Zhe's calamity, but also an outlet for many scholars who studied but were not recognized by Haoran Qi to express their dissatisfaction with Confucianism.
Confucian cultivators uphold justice, so when Wang Jingshu's behavior offends the 'righteousness' of some fellow Confucian cultivators, they will speak generously without noticing that they have become a knife in the hands of others.
Self-defined 'justice' is easily exploited and lacks balance and flexibility. This is also a major weakness of Confucianism.
At this moment, Wang Jingshu suddenly didn't know how to reply to the old man's words.
If you were an ordinary person, you might make a joke and ridicule the old man at this time, and use what Xiao Ting did in Qufu to attack the old man.
But Wang Jingshu won't. After all, she is a Confucianism cultivator who is about to enter a prosperous situation.
She is carefree and has abnormal orientation because she believes that it does not violate morality and justice.
However, she couldn't do it if she was asked to use past events to attack someone who was not directly involved, just to excuse herself by 'implicating' her, or even to divert everyone's attention.
This may also be regarded as a different kind, and a gentleman can bully him.
"Confucianism should exist, but only as a auxiliary, not as a master!"
"I rely on my old age to sell my old age, so I would like to propose here that in the future, Confucian cultivators are not allowed to serve as officials in the court, and are not allowed to engage in teaching and education. They are in the same flow as the monks and become a foreigner!" The old guy opened his mouth directly and saw the dagger.
Of course, this sentence is not completely definitive.
It's just a test, and it's also asking for a high price.
It would be best if we could win everything.
If that fails, it would be a good idea to suppress the Confucian cultivators and wait for the influence of a wealthy family to take over the court again.
Of course, the loss of this statement exceeds the limit!
This old guy is not the emperor, so how can he decide on the appointment and dismissal of officials by the imperial court?
However, this is the benefit of having a truly low moral bottom line in your heart.
He can arbitrarily flexible moral standards, using high requirements to limit others, and using low requirements to facilitate himself.
As Rui, who is over ninety years old and nearly a hundred years old, and the elder of the Kong family in Qufu, he will be given some dignity and less harsh criticism in every aspect and at every level.
Even if these transcendent words were spread and Zhang Bairen heard them, he would not be able to take any drastic measures.
Otherwise, people will spread rumors that the emperor is mean and narrow-minded.
Wang Jingshu touched her arms again and threw out a talisman.
When everyone saw another note flying out, thinking of the 'tragic situation' of the man before, they all backed away in fear.
But the old man took a step forward with his walking stick, not afraid.
Everything he said came from his true heart, and he was not afraid of exposing anything else.
If you say more 'truthful words', it might be more convincing.
Only this time, it's not 'stop talking nonsense'.
Hanging in mid-air are the three characters 'I am not'.
Looking at these three words, the old man's eyes suddenly turned red.
"Confucianism cultivator!"
"Confucianism cultivator!"
"Confucianism cultivator!"
The three 'Confucian cultivators' bitten harder each time.
The resentment and hatred that cannot be resolved are about to overflow like a tide.
"I studied hard for more than a decade. When I was young, I was admitted to the imperial examination in the previous dynasty. Although I did not become an official, I became famous among scholars."
"Why?"
"Why am I not a Confucian cultivator?"
"Why doesn't Haoran Qi recognize me?"
"Why?"
The old man's anger seemed to have nothing to do with the main purpose.
But it just hit the right note.
He was still refuting Confucianism cultivators before, believing that Confucianism cultivators should not be the 'right way' and should be removed from the secular world and become an outsider like Buddhism.
At this moment, every word is inseparable from it.
It shows his crazy persistence and yearning for Confucianism.
What's not possible!
It’s obviously the only one, why not me!
Very much like those bachelors who point at other people's beautiful wives and say that such women are restless and will cheat sooner or later.
The old man's self-explosion was regarded as a slap in the face, directly overturning his previous words.
When he woke up, he looked at the note hanging in the air with a look of awe.
Then he shouted: "Witch! This is witchcraft!"
"Confucianism cultivators actually use sorcery..."
No one echoed this accusation.
Because this old man was obviously a little crazy, that's why he didn't recognize the master's handwriting.
Anyone with a bit of discernment can't tell that from the previous words 'Don't talk nonsense' to the current words 'I'm not', it's all Master's handiwork.
The metaphor behind this makes many people who are ready to make a move feel a little tangled and uneasy.
"In my opinion, this matter should be dealt with as a matter of course."
"The chaos among Confucianism and Cultivators stems from unclear definitions and unclear moral norms."
"According to my proposal, a real conference of Confucian cultivators can be held to discuss together a set of Confucian cultivators' norms and classics. In the future, Confucian cultivators should regulate themselves according to this. If there is any violation, they will be punished according to the degree. "The person who stood up to speak at this time was Ling Linyan, the Minister of Rites, who was also Ling Susu's nominal father.
Naturally, Ling Linyan came forward to propose a 'solution' to solve the problem, and it was Ling Susu who was behind it.
Ling Susu was guiding the occurrence and outbreak of the incident, and then gradually guiding it in a direction that was beneficial to Cao Zhe and the Confucian cultivators.
