Mr. Lu Yan convinced the Gongsun family with the theory of the white horse of the famous patriarch, so much so that the entire Gongsun family was willing to worship him as their teacher. This news immediately spread throughout the neighborhood.
Zidan ran back without stopping and came to see Lu Yan while the sun was still shining.
"Student Zitui, I have met Mr. Lu Yan."
Lu Yan looked at the somewhat irritable Confucian ranger in front of him with great interest.
The previous article talked about Zhang Zhiru, a disciple of the Eight Confucian Schools. Here we will introduce Lu Yan’s identity in Confucianism.
Xunzi, a great master recognized by the world today, served as the three-term priest of the Jixia Academy of Qi State. In layman's terms, he was the president of Peking University for three consecutive terms. The Confucian school represented by him is the most valued school in the world today.
.
Within Confucianism, the Xun School is an academic sect without strong military force or influence.
Xunzi believed that people are born with the desire to satisfy their desires, and if their desires are not satisfied, they will have disputes. Therefore, he advocated that human nature is evil and must be taught by etiquette and law. "Longli respects the virtuous and is king, values the law and loves the people.
Ba."
He clearly opposed the respect for the ancient holy kings and advocated the "system of law, king and king". In the words of later generations, society is developing, and the current trend is the unification of the emerging landlord class.
The steps taken towards the original Confucianism are not small, as can be seen from the fact that two great Legalists, Han Fei and Li Si, both studied under Xunzi.
Later, Xunzi resigned as the president of Peking University and spent his time practicing in Xiaoshengxianzhuang. The influence of his teachings has radiated out and formed a sect. This sect has nothing to do with martial arts. Xunzi also claimed that I am a scholar and do not know martial arts.
As a close disciple of Xunzi, Lu Yan had a high status and great reputation. Since he met Zidan, he had to come and pay his respects.
Lu Yan asked him not to be too polite and just greeted him, "Zidan, you are my equal. You don't need to call me sir."
Zidan did not agree to Lu Yan's kindness, "The head master always teaches and respects the wise. Although he and Master Xun are the same generation, they often think of themselves as younger students. Your knowledge is far better than mine, and I dare not call myself my equal."
"
Lu Yan couldn't help but sigh after hearing this: "Teacher once criticized Zi Zhang for being a cheap Confucian, but Senior Zhuan Sun is so open-minded."
"Master once said that Master Xun was a strange man. He would scold the red tape and even the smallest details, leaving people confused."
Zituan relaxed a little when he said this, no longer as restrained as when he was polite.
Lu Yan thought of Xunzi's scolding and laughed out loud, "Hahaha, the teacher advocates making use of reality. Being rigid is just a waste of time and is of no use; being rude is not sincere and is of no use. So I will wait.
Be polite in your heart, but not rigid in your actions; behave casually, but not slovenly in appearance.”
"Zi dances to be taught."
"This time for the sword debate at Miaotai, will Senior Zhuan Sun also come to watch the ceremony?"
"Well, Master has made good friends with Master Qiongzizi of Renzong. He went up the mountain yesterday. I think we had a very pleasant conversation. Please forget about me."
Why is there such inexplicable resentment?
Lu Yan was a little surprised: "Senior Zhuan Sun brought you alone?"
"Master said, Taoism is no better than other sects. My disciples are a mixed bag, so don't take them out and make them look bad."
ah?
You, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, are very likely to be the next leader?
Lu Yan nodded, "I see, I must pay a visit to Senior Zhuan Sun when he comes down the mountain."
"I will tell the master. Is there anything else you want to explain, sir?"
"Gone."
"Then, Zidan takes leave."
Zitang handed over his hands and was about to leave, but Lu Yan stopped him.
"Wait a minute, when I heard your words, I suddenly remembered a sentence: once you understand its principles, you should not just recite them, but also practice them. This sentence is the gift I gave you in return for calling me sir."
"Thank you sir, student."
Zi Chuan bowed respectfully this time, stepped back, and then slowly left.
Zhuan Sunxia, the current head of the Confucian Zhang sect, must have the strength of Dacheng realm. Xunzi scolded Zhang for being a Confucian, but he severely offended him, but he didn't expect that he had no hatred at all and still respected Xunzi.
If the master is narrow-minded, this disciple Zi Chun should not have such a character.
Dance and practice, practice will lead to true knowledge.
This Zhuan Sunxia, the leader of a sect, is not famous in vain.
Moreover, Zi Dun's martial arts is very strong and should not be much weaker than his own.
This sword debate between heaven and man was the beginning of my true contact with hundreds of schools of thought.
…
In an unknown wilderness, under the cover of twilight, carriages and horses were parked, and a group of people were lighting a fire and setting up tents.
The two old men sat face to face.
The main body of the dress is light blue, with a wide girdle, set with three amethysts, and a crown that holds the hair high, like a bud waiting to bloom. This is Lu Yan's teacher, Xunzi.
One is mainly dressed in brown, with a dark green waistband, and a jade pendant. The crown on his head is wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, with a touch of green in the middle. This is the current head of Xiaoshengxian Manor, Meng Si.
Meng Si put the bamboo slip on his lap and stared at Xunzi, with some envy in his words, "If it hadn't been for this Taoist trip, how long would you have planned to hide it from me? Heaven and man are divided into two parts, and they are used to control the destiny of heaven. He will use your
The theory goes further. How lucky are you to pick up such a beautiful piece of jade."
Xunzi stroked his beard with his right hand, "When he came to Songhai, you didn't accept him as a disciple."
"Humph, I'm afraid he wasn't happy when I accepted him as my disciple."
This guy Xun Kuang was embarrassed in front of him again!
Meng Si's nose sprayed twice.
Xunzi saw the expression on his old friend's face and ignored it. Recalling what Lu Yan had done under his disciple for more than three years, he sighed: "He has always been obsessed with himself."
"You want to publish these articles to build momentum for him?"
"He has decided to participate in the general trend, and as a teacher, I will not stop him."
"Be pure and king, refute and dominate, and you will perish without any trace. This is what you once said. Lu Yan can just make up for the enlightenment that Qin needs, which may be a good thing."
"Ambition allows him to ignore the bumps under his feet, but it also makes him forget the dangers behind him. Qin, I'm not sure whether this country needs enlightenment."
"A country without education is destined to perish."
"However, it also takes time. This period of time is enough to take away countless funeral companions."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Yan Lu, who was dressed in light-colored clothes and tied at the waist, came over and saluted respectfully to Meng Si and then to Xunzi.
"Uncle Xun, you are looking for me."
"I have what he wants to give you."
Meng Si handed the bamboo slip to Yan Lu. It had not been completely rolled up, and the words "On Life in the World" were revealed.
Yan Lu held it in his hand and recognized it at a glance, "This is Lu Yan's handwriting."
Meng Si nodded, and then said in a strange tone: "Yes, after many years, it may be a rare treasure. Now this old guy wants to give it away and waste everything."
Xunzi's eyes turned into lanterns, "What are you talking about, old guy! This is written by my disciple. If you want, you can ask me and I will let him write another copy."
"Master took advantage of your apprentice, you are really shameless."
"Whoever takes advantage of my apprentice will also have my credit for this book."
"With your intelligence, haha~"
"Haha? Don't forget, the result of your chess game with me was twenty-four to twenty-five. You defeated me in one game."
"Well, in your apprentice's chess game, the result between me and you is, twenty-five to twenty-four, you beat me one game."
"you--"
"you--"
Seeing these two elders quarreling so fiercely that they almost pulled their beards and pinched their ears, there were big beads of sweat on the back of Yan Lu's head.
"Master, Master, no wonder you didn't let Senior Brother Fu Nian follow... With his personality, seeing you two like this..."
Yan Lu bowed and quietly retreated.
He walked to the place where the motorcade and carriages were parked. Gu Shuang's long skirt was fluttering in the wind. He held Yan'er with his right hand and together they looked at the setting sun that left a blush on the horizon.
"Time flies so fast."
Yan Lu looked at the backs of mother and daughter and stepped forward with emotion.
Ju Shuang turned her head and responded softly, "Mr. Yan Lu."
"You're also taking Yan'er with you. Don't you plan to go back to Songhai this time?"
"Only villains and women are difficult to raise. It's not appropriate for us to stay here any longer."
"fair enough."
"Yes, that's fine." Ju Shuang held a scabbard in front of her with her left hand.
Ziyun Sword, the sword grid is a hollow ring, the sword is three feet and one inch long, the whole body is dark purple, the tip of the sword is bifurcated into three blades, when it is swung, purple clouds fill the sky, it is an auspicious sword.
"Sir, you have begun to realize your ideals. For the sake of a world where countless children like Yan'er can learn and grow up safely. I am willing to hold the sword in my hand tightly again."
The afterglow has dissipated, and the frosty eyes are shining with sword light.
