Half a month later, Confucian arrived in Xianyang City and submitted an application to Ying Zheng through Dianke Mansion.
When Han Fei and Li Si heard that Xunzi had come to Xianyang, they both came to see their master in person and invited him to live in their house.
Xunzi had a deep talk with his two disciples, and naturally accepted Han Fei's invitation because of his preference.
Zhang Liang also met two old friends, Han Fei and Hong Lian.
Reuniting old friends is naturally a happy event. The three of them had a great time chatting away from things in Korea.
The next day, Zi Nu and Nong Yu also received Han Fei's post, inviting the two women to come over and talk.
Naturally, the two women would not refuse and went to the appointment on time.
When Xunzi, Zhang Liang and others entered the Qin Dynasty, Han Fei's invitation to Zinu and Nongyu could not be hidden from Cheng Xi.
Cheng Yu had no intention of stopping it, let alone joining in the fun.
If he went there, it would be easy for Han Fei and Zhang Liang to think of some very bad things.
Although Han Fei was in Qin and Zhang Liang was in Qi, how could they be indifferent to South Korea?
On the surface it doesn't matter, but privately I'm afraid I pay more attention to him than anyone else.
The current situation in South Korea, tsk tsk... For those who care deeply about Korea, they have fallen into an endless abyss.
However, Cheng Yu had no intention of joining in the fun, but Han Fei and Zhang Liang did intend to meet him.
Zi Nu came back to convey the message.
Cheng Xi also agreed to this, and he felt no guilt in his heart, so he just wanted to see her.
As for whether things can be done or not, it still depends on the Confucian attitude...
His attitude was not good, and the two of them didn't have much face in front of him.
On the morning of the third day, in a bright and clean room in the Purple Girl Courtyard, bright and warm sunlight shines through the window with withered flowers, and the melodious and melodious sound of the piano is pleasant and makes people relax.
Outside the pavilion, there are bamboo groves and green vines to the east, cang trees and flowers to the west, and rockery and flowing water to the north. Five people in the pavilion sat around a long yellow rosewood table.
Cheng Xi is in the middle, Zi Nu is on the left, Han Fei is on the right, Zhang Liang is below Han Fei, and Hong Lian is below Zhang Liang.
As for Nong Yu, he was playing piano music in the west.
There were several cups of tea and plates of snacks and dried fruits on the table. No one said anything, quietly enjoying the music...
When the song ended, Nongyu came and took a seat under Zinu. Everyone praised her sincerely, and Nongyu responded with a smile.
A few people chatted about other things before getting down to business.
The purpose of Han Fei and Zhang Liang is easy to guess. They just want him to say something good to Confucianism.
Cheng Yu didn't bother to deal with the two of them, and directly expressed his attitude. His clean and concise statement also made the two of them feel relieved.
Originally, the Confucianists were here to show their good will, so even if someone caused trouble, Cheng Xi's prestige would be enough to reverse the situation.
From this incident, we can see the difference in personality between Han Fei and Li Si. Li Si had no intention of taking risks to ask Cheng Xi for help.
After talking about this matter, Han Fei and Zhang Liang had no intention of staying any longer.
Although everyone can still sit together and drink tea and wine, it is not the same as before after all.
Just before the two were about to leave, Cheng Yu suddenly remembered something and stopped the two of them, and they sat down again.
"Brother Han, I heard that you have been investigating some things in your spare time these days?"
Han Fei's expression changed slightly and he said, "Are you spying on me?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room became a little tense.
Zi Nu, Nong Yu, Zhang Liang and Hong Lian looked worried.
"It's not surveillance, it's just that what you want to investigate is very sensitive."
"Whoever wants to contact them will report it to me. It's not specifically targeted."
"Brother Han, I want to solemnly warn you."
"Don't try to find out the secret behind the rise of Duke Zheng Zhuang, otherwise you will be killed!"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room became even more tense.
The State of Zheng was just an inconspicuous small country during the Spring and Autumn Period. Although it was eventually destroyed by South Korea, it was known as the Little Overlord of the Spring and Autumn Period during the reign of Duke Zhuang of Zheng.
The five hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period were Duke Huan of Qi, Duke Wen of Jin, Duke Mu of Qin, King Zhuang of Chu, and Duke Xiang of Song.
Although the Spring and Autumn Little Bulls are definitely not as good as the Spring and Autumn Five Bullies, they are still somewhat impressive.
In this world, the rise of Duke Zheng Zhuang is said to have a lot to do with Canglong Qisu.
Following the rise of Duke Zheng Zhuang, the investigation will definitely lead to Canglong Qisu.
And according to the plot of the Tianjiu period, Han Fei, the Korean royal family, has a certain understanding of Canglong Qisu.
Coupled with the memory of the Qin Dynasty that Han Fei had the Six Souls Horror Curse on his arm, which shows that Han Fei must have been looking down with determination.
So he was sanctioned first by Li Si, and then by the Yin Yang family.
When Han Fei asked about the murder, his expression remained calm and he said, "Please give me more reminders from the Marquis."
"It seems that the Marquis has a deep understanding of the secret behind Zheng Zhuanggong..."
Cheng Yu shook his head and said, "I can't say that my wife has a deep understanding. I only know that it may have something to do with Canglong Qisu."
"Canglong Qisu, Brother Han, have you heard of it?"
Han Fei nodded slightly, while the others were confused.
"Canglong Qisu is the guardian of the Yin Yang family. He has been pursuing secrets for thousands of years. Anyone who tries to pry will be obliterated."
"That is to say, the Yin Yang family doesn't know yet, otherwise Brother Han, you will definitely be targeted."
"Brother Wang's admiration can't protect you, and Ni Lin's force can't protect you either."
Zi Nu stretched out her hand to hold Cheng Xi's hand, and asked with a worried look: "Will the two sisters take action?"
"As long as I'm here, even if they find out, they probably won't take action."
"But if the leader of the Yin Yang family, Donghuang Taiyi, knew about it, it would be different."
"The people of the Yin and Yang family want to kill someone, and there are many destructive and vicious ways."
In order to avoid alerting Donghuang Taiyi, Cheng Yu would not stop Yan Fei and Yueshen from taking action.
He doesn't want the Yin Yang family to continue to be obsessed with Canglong Qisu, and naturally he doesn't want Han Fei to be obsessed with it.
Zi Nu, Nong Yu, Zhang Liang, and Hong Lian quickly tried to persuade Han Fei, but Han Fei lowered his head and remained silent.
"Hum hum……"
Cheng Yu suddenly sneered, everyone looked at him, and Han Fei also raised his head.
"Do you want to find out the secret of Zheng Zhuanggong's rise to reverse Korea's destiny?"
"Humph... It seems that you are really at your wits' end and have no other choice."
"Is this a choice that a Legalist disciple should make?"
Han Fei said with a wry smile: "You are right, this is not a choice that a Legalist disciple should have, but..."
Although the following words were not spoken, everyone present basically understood the meaning.
Cheng Yu took a deep breath and said, "Brother Han, I have advised you more than once, right?"
"Why can't you see through it?"
"You understand the truth, but you just can't see through it."
"If it weren't for our previous friendship with Zi Nu and the others, I wouldn't even bother talking nonsense."
Although he himself was trying his best to change the fate of Qin, his family knew about his own affairs and did not form any obsession.
If he really couldn't change Qin's fate despite his best efforts, then he could accept it.
After all, as a man of three generations, he is quite open-minded about the change of dynasties.
The bitter smile on Han Fei's face became thicker and he said: "You are right, I understand the truth."
"South Korea is basically in the state it is in today because of its own fault and its failure to live up to its expectations."
"Even if we don't die from Qin, we will die from Zhao, Wei, Chu, Qi, etc..."
"But seeing my home country destroyed, I...I really can't let go."
At the end of the sentence, Han Fei's tone became a little sad.
Infected by Han Fei, Honglian and Zhang Liang were also in a very low mood, and Zinu and Nongyu also felt a little uncomfortable.
"well……"
"It's not as bad as you think. The country will definitely not be saved, but there is still hope to save the family."
"Since we have talked about it to this extent today, I will tell you everything."
"If you are still stubborn after hearing this and insist on seeking death, then I won't bother to stop you."
In fact, there is another important reason why Cheng Xi is so worried, that is, Han Fei is the master of Legalism, and later generations will call him Han Feizi.
Han Fei is still young now and still has room for further development.
When Qin unified the world and formulated new laws, Han Fei could play a big role.
If Han Fei is still alive by then, as long as the difference in thinking between a world of great strife and a world of peace is changed, he will surely be able to formulate laws that meet all aspects of contemporary times.
The Qin State governs the country by law. The law is related to the foundation of the country and involves all aspects of the people. It is all-encompassing and of great importance!
For various reasons, he was willing to give it one last try.
As the saying goes, compassion cannot help but kill others, and good words cannot persuade a person to die.
He has tried his best and still wants to die, so no one can blame him.
When Han Fei and others heard this, they all cheered up and looked at Cheng Xi with wide eyes without blinking.
"You have more or less understanding of the situation in South Korea, so the possibility of military conquest is extremely small."
"The State of Qin plans to first let South Korea accept the imperial seal, and then merge it into the State of Qin."
Han Fei, Zhang Liang, and Hong Lian felt very uncomfortable when they heard this.
Doesn't South Korea now even have the qualifications to let Qin officially launch troops?
"The King of Han will be removed from his royal title, given a new title, and given a corresponding salary."
"You, Korea, can also keep the ancestral temple, but it must be reduced to corresponding standards."
"The Korean royal family will move to Xianyang to live. Their status will be lost, but their lives will be saved."
"You two brothers and sisters will take care of me and live well."
"Ask yourselves, can you find such good treatment if you look through the history books?"
"Let's not talk about the distant future, let alone the future. Zheng Guo, who was destroyed by South Korea, what will be the fate of Zheng Guo's office?"
"Brother Han, if you seek death yourself, can this girl Honglian protect King Han and his family?"
Honglian suddenly became angry when she heard this. Who are you looking down on?
But when she asked herself, she really didn't have much confidence, and she didn't want anything to happen to her ninth brother.
It would be best for Ninth Brother to be with her all the time.
After hearing this, Han Fei thought carefully and weighed it...
Frankly speaking, this kind of treatment is indeed excellent for a king who has subjugated his country.
Although I have to come to Xianyang and be under surveillance, I can survive as long as I don't cause trouble.
But without his support in the court, everyone, including his father, the king and his sister, would probably have a very difficult life.
Speaking of which, although Qin was plotting against South Korea, neither King Qin Yingzheng nor the Marquis Yong in front of him treated him badly.
It is understandable that everyone should consider the interests of their own country, and the attitude of putting these aside is rare and valuable.
In such a situation, do you really want to sacrifice your life for an almost impossible goal?
"elder brother."
Hong Lian looked at Han Fei with her eyes like peach petals covered with dew in the morning, her voice was soft and waxy, and her face was filled with prayer.
"Brother Han."
Of course Zhang Liang didn't want to see Han Fei die, so he stretched out his right hand and put it on Han Fei's shoulder.
Although Zi Nu and Nong Yu were speechless, they looked at Han Fei expectantly, and their meaning was obvious.
Only Chenglong, the old god, was waiting for Han Fei's answer...
To this extent, Han Fei accepted whatever choice he made and stopped trying to change it.
Han Fei slowly looked around, taking in everyone's expressions, and suddenly wanted to live a few more years in this world.
"Brother Ying, I will send you the Anti-Scale Sword tomorrow."
Although Han Fei spoke in a cryptic way, everyone understood what he meant, and everyone was smiling for a while.
Cheng Yu was also very happy. Although he could accept that Han Fei was seeking death, it would be best if Han Fei survived.
From now on, Han Fei will definitely not interfere with Qin's government affairs, and will definitely do his job with his heart.
Because when South Korea is destroyed, the Han family will need him as the backbone to support it.
If he falls, the Han family will not be in trouble. On the contrary, the higher his position, the better the situation of the Han family.
In this way, doesn’t that guy Li Si have a super rival?
It's not certain whether he can still become prime minister.
That's not right. There is still a high chance that he will become the prime minister. After Lu Buwei, the power of the prime minister will be split.
"If I'm not wrong, even if you don't use the Reverse Scale Sword, the Reverse Scale Sword is still draining your life force all the time, right?"
Except for Zi Nu and Han Fei, who knew the inside story, everyone else was shocked when they heard this.
"That's right."
"Even if I don't use the Reverse Scale Sword, I won't be able to live long if this continues."
Cheng Yu nodded slightly: "I guess this is one of the reasons why you are not afraid of death."
"Yes."
"If possible, I hope you won't destroy him, Brother Ying. After all, he has helped me a lot."
This is Han Fei, who values emotions, even for a sword of the undead.
This is both an advantage and a disadvantage.
It was no wonder that the Ni Lin Sword was extracting life force. Han Fei took the initiative to sign a contract with the Ni Lin Sword Spirit.
Without signing a contract, the Reverse Scale Sword cannot extract Han Fei's life force.
"I'll give it a try to see if the two ladies have the Yin Yang technique to seal the Anti-Scale Sword Spirit..."
"If it doesn't work, we'll continue to study it. If it doesn't work, we can only destroy it."
Cheng Yu didn't finish his words. Although it made no sense that they couldn't do anything with a sword, they couldn't be sure. After all, the existence of the Nilin Sword was too special...
If it cannot be sealed, it can only be destroyed.
Otherwise, Han Fei would still inevitably have his life force drained and die early.
"Thank you so much, Brother Ying."
"As long as you don't blame me, the other ovary..."
Zhang Liang said, neither humble nor arrogant: "What do you have to say, Lord Marquis?"
"After your trip to Qin is over, I suggest you go back to Xinzheng to persuade your grandfather."
"The little moves he made in private seemed seamless, but in fact they were full of flaws."
Zhang Liang's expression suddenly changed, and the expressions of others also changed.
"Since the Qin State can treat the royal family with dignity, it can also treat your Zhang family."
"As long as you Zhang family cooperate honestly and don't make any unrealistic delusions."
"If it weren't for the fact that you and I have some friendship, and you are also an outstanding talent, Zifang, Ye Mu would have been cruel to you."
Zhang Liang stood up and bowed his hands in a salute: "Thank you, Lord Marquis, for your noble hand and magnanimity."
"Liang must go back to Xinzheng to persuade his grandfather."
"I'm sure."
Cheng Yu nodded slightly, he had learned so much today, if he still couldn't do this, Zhang Liang would no longer be Zhang Liang.
"Okay, sit down."
"Drink tea."
Cheng Yu waved his hand and raised his tea cup. Seeing this, the others also raised their cups.
After drinking tea, the atmosphere in the room became much more harmonious.
For Han Fei, Hong Lian and Zhang Liang, at least the worst thing will not happen, which is a great relief.
Putting down the tea cup, Zi Nu was in a very happy mood, because the relationship between the two people closest to him had eased a lot.
At this time, the purple girl was wearing a blue-purple gradient long-sleeved water dress, with a layer of dark purple tulle on her chest. Her long purple hair was scattered, held up by a ribbon and three silver hairpins. She was cool and elegant, but also had a virtuous character.
temperament.
"It would be great if Zhuang was here too."
This statement also attracted everyone's attention, and Han Fei had a smile on his face when he remembered what happened in the past.
"Brother Ying, you should know the current whereabouts of Brother Wei Zhuang, right?"
Although Han Fei was the Tingweicheng of the Qin State, he did not have many sources of information.
Unless Wei Zhuang does something big, it is difficult to hear news about Wei Zhuang.
If Zi Nu wants to know, she can ask, but she hasn’t asked after a while, and she doesn’t know the latest news.
"He is still stirring up trouble in the world, falling in love with and killing his senior brother Gai Nie."
That's right, Gai Nie hasn't come back yet, and is still traveling around the world, honing his sword skills.
Wei Zhuang basically followed behind Gai Nie, and the two often fought against each other.
This is a situation that Cheng Yu would like to see, lest Wei Zhuang want to cause big troubles in his spare time.
The Xinzheng Rebellion in the anime was launched by Wei Zhuang, with the shadow of Changping Lord Xiong Qi behind him, and he even killed Han Wang An.
Han Wangan must have broken Hong Lian's heart, otherwise Hong Lian would not have followed Wei Zhuang.
Nowadays, their brothers love each other and do not interfere with the situation of other countries. This is undoubtedly a good situation.
Others were not sure about the special relationship between Wei Zhuang and Gai Nie, so they were a little worried.
"Don't worry, this generation of Zongheng in Guigu is different from the previous ones. They will fight back but they won't kill them."
"I heard that Mr. Xun is at your residence and has nothing to do. I plan to pay him a visit."
"Are you going together?"
Cheng Xiu had met Xunzi once before, but he had not talked about it in detail. If he had a chance, he would like to meet him today.
Xunzi's thoughts were so unique among Confucians that some Confucians described him as a traitor who deceived his teachers and destroyed their ancestors.
However, in fact, Xunzi was a real master. He entered Confucianism but came out of Confucianism and adopted various schools of thought.
No longer restricted by one person in the family, his thoughts became more open and broad, his speech became more brilliant and sharp, and he put forward such ideological insights as "the behavior of nature is constant, man must conquer nature, and the theory of evil nature".
The so-called nature is constant means that heaven is not mysterious and unpredictable, but has its own unchanging laws.
This law is not a mysterious law of heaven, but a natural necessity. It does not change depending on human likes and dislikes.
I once evaluated Confucius and Mencius and Xunzi, saying that Confucius and Mencius were idealists, while Xunzi was a materialist.
Cheng Yu really liked Xunzi's thoughts, surpassing Confucius and Mencius.
Zi Nu and Nong Yu also wanted to meet this Confucian master, so naturally they would not refuse.
In this era of hundreds of schools of thought contending and open-mindedness, Xunzi's status is much higher than that of later generations when Confucianism was dominant.
Some corrupt Confucians in later generations regard Xunzi as a heretic, and heretics are often more hateful than heretics.
So the group of people left the mansion and got on the carriage to Han Fei's mansion.
Cheng Yu successfully met Xunzi, who had an immortal demeanor, a pure spirit, and a graceful appearance, quite like an old Taoist immortal.
At this juncture, Xunzi will naturally become a dragon.
Xunzi originally met Chengyu just because he wanted to ask for talents, but he did not expect that some of Chengyu's ideas were very consistent with his.
The two people, who are several times different in age, are chatting more and more speculatively...
Han Fei and Zhang Liang did not expect that Cheng Yu would have such a congenial conversation with Xunzi, and there was a tendency for them to become friends every year...
If they really want to be friends forever, wouldn't one of them be a generation shorter, and the other one be several generations shorter?
Although Xunzi is not the only highest-ranking Confucian in the Qin Dynasty, he is one of them.
Zhang Liang has not yet become the Three Heroes of Qi and Lu, and his seniority is very low.
We have become friends all year round, and we are really a few generations younger!
