Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 634 Confucius, Datong World

Do you want to compete with Young Master Heng for the crown prince with the determination to die?
Young Master Hong couldn't help frowning, his face was quite gloomy.

It's just that brothers fight against the wall to defend against their insults.

The snail horn disputes, only profit is the only thing...

The truth is such a truth, why doesn't Gongzihong not know?

Gong Zixi saw that Gong Zihong was hesitant, and followed up and said: "Brother, if you can let the father depose the queen and put Mrs. Rumeng on the back seat, then brother can logically become the eldest son."

"In this way, the father will not be in a dilemma."

"Furthermore, after the queen was deposed, even if it was a momentary cold reception, the elder brother would succeed to the throne in the future, it might be possible to compensate Wu Heng and the queen..."

This is just Gong Zixi explaining Gong Zihong.

With Qingji's age, coupled with his strong body, if there is no accident, he can live for at least 30 to [-] years.

And once Queen Ji Pao is deposed, how can she die without fear?

Those who are sad are likely to live a short life.

This woman felt sorry for herself, it was normal for her to be seriously ill.

"what should I do?"

Hearing this, Kong Qiu followed up and said, "Young Master, there are two capable generals on the side of Young Master Heng. One is Lang Zhong Ling Gou Jian, and the other is Yu Shi Zhong Cheng Deng Xi. Both of them are not good people."

"Not to mention Deng Xi, Gou Jian has the appearance that the eagle sees the wolf and cares about the wolf, and he was originally the prince of the Yue Kingdom, the heir of Yue Hou Yunchang. The king often suspects that Gou Jian has the heart of disobedience, so he uses it and guards against it."

"Young Master wants to overthrow the Queen and Young Master Heng, first start with Gou Jian and get rid of Gou Jian."

Get rid of Goujian?

To be honest, Gong Zihong didn't like Gou Jian.

In the imperial court of Wu State, even if the ministers and officials were not on the side of Gong Zihong, they would still be friendly with him, and they were nodding acquaintances.

Only Gou Jian was indifferent to Young Master Hong, and often ridiculed Young Master Hong behind his back...

This time, let's forget the old and new grudges.

Of course, with Young Master Hong's capacity, it is not unforgivable for Gou Jian to be rude to him before.

"Servant, you should come and tell the young master."

At the critical moment, Kong Qiu made a "please" gesture and shrank his head unconsciously.

Hearing this, the eunuch Shen took a glance at Kong Qiu, kept his expression calm, but scolded Kong Qiu in his heart.

What a Confucius!
This really wants to set up a chastity memorial archway, but also wants to be a piao!
Outrageous!

As we all know, Confucius is a person who cherishes his feathers and his reputation.

It's just that this time it's about his favorite protégé, Zihong's seizure of the heir apparent, and Kong Qiu doesn't want to stay out of it.

This made him put aside his old face and fully support Young Master Hong.

However, Kong Qiu was originally a man of temperament. Although he was scheming, he was unwilling to use tricks to defeat his opponents and his political enemies.

To be precise, Confucius disdained to use despicable means to eradicate his political enemies...

Only, this time the situation is different.

Because once Gong Ziheng wins the battle between the concubine and the concubine, Gong Zihong, Kong Qiu and others will not be fared well.

In the event that Qing Ji passed away, and the son Heng who inherited the great position and held the power of life and death, how could he not settle accounts later?

In this way, not only Gong Zihong, but also ministers of Confucian background such as Confucius, Zeng Dian, and Ran Geng, as well as Shen Xi, Bei Li, Zhu Yong, etc., the old family ministers and officials of the local Wu Kingdom, I am afraid that they will inevitably be liquidated... …

At that time, facing them may be a situation beyond redemption.

The best result is that they are demoted by Wu Wangheng, and they are left at home with free gifts, or they are exiled to the south of Lingnan and the southwest.

The worst outcome is that they commit suicide by taking poison, or their family is ransacked by Wu Wangheng...

Of course, there is also a possibility that these losers were not tolerated by Wu Wangheng and had to flee to Jin, Qi, Song, Lu and other Central Plains countries...

These are not the consequences that Kong Qiu and others are willing to see.

There is no doubt that the brutal battle for the heir apparent will greatly change the current situation of Wu.

So, why did Confucius support Gong Zihong's supremacy?
Gong Zihong is the favorite student of Confucius, and he is deeply trusted by the latter. This is only one aspect.

The biggest intention of Confucius is to make Gong Zihong into a "virtuous and wise lord" in his ideal, so that the Wu Kingdom can practice the great governance of the ancient world!

In fact, Confucius did not give up his lofty ambition of restoring Zhouli!

The core content of Confucius' political thought is "propriety" and "benevolence". In terms of the strategy of governing the country, he advocated "government with virtue", and governing the country with morality and ethics is the most noble way of governing the country.

This strategy of governing the country is also called "rule by virtue" or "rule by ritual".

This strategy bestows virtue and propriety on the people, strictly follows the hierarchy, and clearly divides the nobles and the common people into the rulers and the ruled.

Breaking an important boundary between nobles and common people!
The avenue runs smoothly, and the world is a public society, so it is possible to "select the virtuous and capable, preach trust and cultivate harmony."

This is an idealized picture of the primitive world in the legendary Yao and Shun era, and it is also the highest ideal world that Confucius longed for!
Gong Zihong was exactly the ideal Ming master in Kong Qiu's mind.

As for Gong Ziheng, his behavior style is exactly like Qingji, and his personality is known by Confucius, so it is absolutely impossible for him to tolerate Confucius overthrowing everything and starting over again.

The reason why Shen Xi, Zhu Yong, Bei Li and other old family ministers in the native Wu state supported Gong Zihong's supremacy was because they hit it off with Kong Qiu and others.

If the "world of great harmony" dreamed by Confucius can be realized, they will all get fiefdoms and become powerful feudal monarchs...

Wouldn't it be better to have a hereditary and irreplaceable feudal lord than a simple feudal wife?
Shen Xi said: "Young Master, Gou Jian is the younger brother of the current queen, that is, the uncle of Young Master Heng, and his position must be to support Young Master Heng's supremacy."

"Thus, getting rid of Goujian is like breaking off one of Prince Heng's arms, and there is a lot to be done..."

"How to get rid of it?"

Gong Zihong asked a crucial question.

Shen Xi said with a dark smile: "Young master, the old man has already obtained reliable information, and there is solid evidence."

"Your Majesty's Mrs. Yayu had some contacts with Goujian before entering the palace. Although it was not an affair, there are love letters to prove it."

"Maybe you can start from this, frame Goujian, and make the king think that Mrs. Yayu and Goujian are still having an affair, and the ties are broken..."

"..."

Young Master Hong couldn't help frowning, and said: "Private servant, such methods are really too despicable, and it's hard to be elegant."

"Furthermore, with my father's brilliance and martial arts, and Mrs. Yayu's chastity, how can I tolerate such blasphemy?"

"Let's not talk about whether we can get rid of Goujian, Hong really can't bear it, Mrs. Yayu may commit suicide in shame and indignation..."

Hearing this, Shen Xi couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, and then said with a dark face: "My lord, since ancient times, women's benevolence can't accomplish great things!"

"Young master, please respect yourself!"

　There are too many plots in Li Chu, or else, it will explode.
