Tao Xiaowu was slightly stunned. He really had never cared about this.
After all, since time traveling, he has been concentrating on cultivation, so how can he have time to pay attention to these things?
In addition, in this classical era, information spread slowly.
Tao Xiaowu really doesn’t have any channels to know about the general trend of the world and this kind of thing!
"Ever since Prince Guangchuan wrote to the Emperor and restructured Heaven and Man, the power of Confucianism has continued to expand. Now, ten of the emperor's scholars are already Confucian students!"
He smiled bitterly and said, "Even relatives like us from a famous family have to be covered in a layer of Confucianism!"
Tao Xiaowu raised his head in slight shock, wondering what the point of Chen Dao talking to him was.
But I heard Chen Daodao say, "Confucianism has its own benefits, but it also advocates limiting the power of the monarch and checking and balancing the emperor.
This is especially true as the power becomes stronger!
Therefore, the emperors of all dynasties could only use relatives and eunuchs to fight against Confucian officials.
However, even the late emperor was trapped by the Confucian officials and could not stretch out, and ultimately died in depression.
Now, as soon as the emperor ascends the throne, he is eager to support his relatives..."
Following Chen Dao's explanation, Tao Xiaowu understood many things for the first time.
Suddenly, he knew why Yang Fuhou was a businessman, why he didn't like Confucian scholars, and why he wanted to use him as a wizard as a sacrificial wine!
In the past, Tao Xiaowu thought that Yang Fuhou was originally a businessman and naturally disliked Confucian scholars. Now it seems that the inside story is not that simple.
I also understand why Chen Dao said that the Chen family in Hejian was wearing Confucianism.
Because the Chen family in Hejian is a family with meritorious service, they are natural allies of the emperors of all generations.
Although this kind of family may appear to be studying Confucianism on the surface, deep down they stand with the emperor and are against Confucianism!
The follower who was killed with a stick just now probably studied with Chen Dao.
However, the real core family methods of the Hejian Chen family were not learned, but they believed in Confucianism...
At this time, Tao Xiaowu fully understood that Chen Dao was actually explaining to himself by talking to him so much.
As a result, he became more and more aware that the last time he broke the hands and feet of the Confucian scholars, although Yang Fuhou scolded him on the surface, he rewarded him heavily not long after.
Tao Xiaowu smiled and said, "Why did Mr. Chen say so much? It was Mr. Chen who suggested it to me in the first place, so I dared to be rude to those Confucian scholars!"
Chen Dao smiled and said, "Tao Lord, just rest assured and live in peace in the mansion. No matter how powerful Mr. Fuqiu is, he will not dare to break into the Hou's mansion."
Tao Xiaowu nodded slightly, understanding.
This was the biggest reason why he was alert that the follower who was killed with a rod was a spy.
If Duke Fuqiu comes to visit, it is obvious that the Hou Mansion is the safest place.
If you really listen to that entourage and hide out of the house, you will simply hit Mr. Fuqiu in the hand!
However, just as Tao Xiaowu nodded, he heard a loud shout, like a bolt from the blue.
"Witch thief, you come out here!"
The sound seemed to come from the main courtyard, passed through many buildings, and actually came all the way here.
For a moment, both Tao Xiaowu and Chen Dao's expressions changed.
"Mom, this slap in the face comes really fast. I just said that Mr. Fuqiu didn't dare to come to find trouble, but I never thought that Mr. Fuqiu would be so courageous!"
Tao Xiaowu complained in his heart, and Chen Dao's face changed from shock to livid.
The master humiliates his ministers and dies. This Duke of Fuqiu dares to roar like this in Yangfuhou's house. That means he doesn't take Yangfuhou in his eyes.
This kind of thing, like Chen Dao's family order, is absolutely intolerable!
Whether it is according to the Confucian ethics of this era or the social atmosphere, loyalty and justice in death must be emphasized.
At this time, the folk customs were simple, vigorous and brave, and they also emphasized shame and revenge.
If someone humiliates you, you must take revenge even if you risk your life.
Weak people are looked down upon by others!
What's more, the Lord humiliated his ministers and died. His own monarch was humiliated. If he couldn't take revenge, he would have no choice but to commit suicide.
Otherwise, once the reputation spreads, there will be no need to mess around!
In this era, the reputation of scholars is more important than anything else!
Chen Dao's face turned pale and he said, "Tao Jun, please wait here, I'll go take a look!"
As he spoke, his hand was already holding the hilt of the sword.
Tao Xiaowu's mind was spinning rapidly, and he immediately said, "How dare this thief do this? I will go with him. I will kill this thief!"
He also faced the same problem.
He, Wu Tao, is also a minister of Yang Fuhou's house, and he cannibalize his salary.
And he was the one who caused this incident, at least the trigger was on him.
How could he, Tao Xiaowu, not be able to escape at this time?
If you really do this, your reputation will be ruined!
Not to mention whether he is famous or not, the key question is what Yang Fuhou would think?
How will I hang out in the Hou Mansion in the future?
Therefore, even though he did not want to, Tao Xiaowu had no choice but to go out at this time.
At this time, Tao Xiaowu had already understood what Mr. Fuqiu had done, and he felt faintly sad and angry, "You old Fuqiu thief, what grudge do I have against you?"
In order to force me out, he even risked his life!"
In my heart, I greeted all the eighteen generations of Duke Fuqiu's ancestors.
After hearing Tao Xiaowu's words, Chen Dao was slightly startled, "Tao Jun, what are you..."
Although Tao Xiaowu scolded her in his heart, he remained calm on the surface and sneered, "This old Fuqiu thief insists on forcing me out, then I will follow his wish!"
With that said, he strode outside.
A thoughtful look appeared on Chen Dao's face, and he understood what Mr. Fuqiu really meant by shouting like this.
I was secretly shocked, it seemed that Duke Fuqiu was determined to kill Tao Jun.
It's dangerous for Mr. Tao to go out!
However, he could not persuade Tao Xiaowu not to go out.
Anger arose in my heart, these Confucian scholars were always so domineering.
As long as they are not one of their own, they are evil and villains. They are really disgusting!
If nothing happens to Mr. Tao, that's all. If something happens to Mr. Tao, I will make this Fuqiu Gong look good.
…
At this time, it wasn't just Chen Dao who was angry.
The face of Yang Fuhou Liang Xiu was also very ugly. He looked at Duke Fuqiu with a livid face and said coldly, "It seems that Duke really doesn't take me seriously!"
Although a few months ago, he was just a businessman.
However, now he is a relative of the country, a Yangfuhou with an extremely noble status.
Since the emperor ascended the throne, this is the first time he has been slapped in the face like this!
When Duke Fuqiu asked him to hand over Wu Tao, he naturally couldn't agree.
Apart from anything else, I handed over my sacrificial wine to Duke Fuqiu with just one word. After it was spread, where would I put my face?
However, Duke Fuqiu actually started to drink loudly in the palace, but he didn't pay attention to Marquis Yangfu at all.
To put it more seriously, it means that he did not pay attention to the emperor behind him at all!
