Sui Dynasty: I, Yang Guang, am both scrupulous and stable

Chapter 344
"Sir, as the saying goes, people with different opinions will not work together."

Yang Guang's words made Wang Long close his eyes, and a sigh echoed in his heart.

At this time, a childish voice sounded: "Your Highness, there are thousands of roads in the world, and they all run together. There are people who go astray, and there are people who take different paths, but they all arrive at the same destination. Your Highness, why bother with golden feet? Just walk on the road."

Wang Tong's words rang out at this moment. Yang Guang, who was standing at the door and looking back, looked at the young Mrs. Wang and smiled for a moment.

I read it again: "Why cherish the golden feet, walking on the road, there are thousands of roads, each has its end, good! Good! Good!!"

"Master Wang, I almost made a mistake. I asked people not to block the way of young students, and I should not block your way. As long as you step on the road, prosper China, and achieve the same goal through different paths."

Then a hearty laugh came: "Hahaha."

Along with these laughters, Yang Guang seemed to feel a lot more relaxed: "Little Master Wang, how many books have you read?"

Wang Tong himself answered: "Not many, probably twenty or thirty books."

Wang Long spoke on behalf of his son at this time: "Your Highness, the child has the ability of photographic memory, so he knows a lot of words and reads a lot of books at a young age. He has memorized them, but his understanding is not yet thorough."

"My dear little prince, I'll come to my house in three days."

Wang Tong: "Your Highness, why did you ask me to go?"

"On the Road."

"Is life in danger? A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall."

Yang Guang smiled and said, "You can have some candy."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

……

The two brothers Kong Bo and Kong Sheng are now in Daxing City, and their residence is in the school.

As the elders of the Confucian family, they always have privileges in schools everywhere and are honored guests no matter where they go. Therefore, they have always traveled around schools everywhere. Wherever they go, they will give lectures on Confucian culture to promote Confucianism. culture, but more importantly, promote Confucian culture.

If there are sages in the family, why not mention them?
This is just like a person who has a prominent relative in his family. If he has a distinguished relative in his family, he must mention it to everyone.

Kong Sheng, who was in the school at this time, said to Kong Bo: "The students in Daxing City are really vulgar and rude. They are unlearned and unskilled villagers who have not read a few articles at a young age. They dare to speak against Confucius." It’s really ridiculous, ridiculous to comment on academics and principles!”

Kong Bo echoed: "Isn't it the same in Luoyang City? Today's schools teach students badly."

"The school in Qufu is better. The students recite Confucius' articles in the morning and recite them again in the evening. Every time they walk in, there is the sound of reading, and the cultural atmosphere is really strong."

"Who says it's not the case? The students in the school in Daxing City actually hold student meetings three times a month to discuss each other's doctrines. How can a few ordinary people get on the stage to comment on the teachings of the saints, forget about Lao Mengzhuang, and call me Confucius? Home, it’s really an insult to gentlemen.”

"They also say that Confucianism is Confucianism, and Confucianism is Confucianism. Confucianism is something from our family. Without our family, they would be a group of uncivilized savages. What do you understand? Now that I have studied two articles, I have a higher vision. Damn, we don’t even recognize our ancestors anymore, Confucianism is our Confucian family.”

"Originally, Li Gang was quite sensible. He warmly entertained us every time we came, and he also praised us in the Kong family. Unexpectedly, he was replaced as well. What a pity."

Kong Bo smiled disdainfully: "Yes, Li Gang is good, but he also wants to build a Kong family ancestral hall in the school. It's a pity."

Kong Sheng said with a sinister look on his face: "This man is really hard to kill!"

At this time, a servant boy came to the door: "Two gentlemen, His Royal Highness has come to invite these two gentlemen to the East Palace to discuss matters."

When the two of them were feeling triumphant, they suddenly received an invitation from Yang Guang and were momentarily panicked.

"You go out and wait, we will come in a moment."

After dismissing ordinary people first, Kong Sheng said in a panic: "Brother, what is going on? Why did you suddenly come to us? Could it be that you were discovered?"

"It's impossible. We've done everything right. The dead soldiers are also trained to be multi-faceted and never show their faces. This time, the dead soldiers all died directly. There is no evidence of death, so don't worry."

"How many dead soldiers do we have left?"

"There are still two people left. This plan won't work. We can only wait a few years. It's a sign of his fate."

"Then what should we do now? Go?"

"There's no reason to refuse, I just have to go."

Kong Sheng and Kong Bo went to Yang Guang's house together.

As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Li Yuan waiting here.

Li Yuan bowed to the two of them respectfully: "Two gentlemen, His Highness the Crown Prince has specially ordered me to greet you in front of the mansion."

The two looked at each other. They didn't expect Yang Guang to be so respectful to them. He couldn't help but smile and gently stroked his white beard: "Thank you, Duke Tang."

"Please."

Li Yuan invited the two of them to the mansion and walked through the long corridor to the garden. At this time, Yang Guang was fishing, and Yiwangtong was sitting next to him, spreading fish food.

After taking the two people over, Yang Guang first made a silent gesture, and then stared at the lake attentively.

Then he pulled hard, splashing water, but found nothing.

After reeling in the line, the two of them saw clearly that Yang Guang's fishhook was straight.

Kong Sheng said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very interested in learning from Jiang Taigong fishing."

Yang Guang turned around and saw the two of them, and said slightly surprised: "You two are here, why didn't you remind me?"

"Your Highness is serious about fishing, and I am also serious about watching."

"Sit, sit."

Yang Guang asked the two of them to sit down, and then asked the maid to start serving some refreshments.

"How long have you two gentlemen been in Daxing City?"

"It's been more than a month."

"I heard that you two have been living in the school, are you still in the habit of living there?"

Yang Guang came up and chatted with the two of them. The two were confused. Yang Guang was looking around and talking about other things, as if he didn't say anything important.

When tea was served, a dagger was served beside it.

When they saw the dagger, the two of them didn't feel much at first. It was just an ordinary dagger.

Yang Guang picked up the dagger and started peeling a pear.

Kong Sheng said: "Your Highness, it is better to let your maid handle such a dangerous matter."

Yang Guang stopped what he was doing, stretched out the dagger so that the two of them could see it more clearly, and then said lightly: "That's the dagger that almost killed me."

The two of them felt a thump in their hearts.

Yang Guang pointed to the location of his wound: "It's right here. The dagger was inserted through here. If the assassin hadn't been unlucky, the knife might have reached my heart, and then I wouldn't have the chance to sit here with you." It's time for tea, gentlemen, isn't it?" "Yes... yes."

Kong Sheng and Kong Bo accompanied him with a smile, but sweat was already breaking out on his back.

Yang Guang continued to peel pears and said: "Fortunately, I am blessed with good fortune. God will not accept me. To spare my life, he should ask me to do something. From now on, I will keep this knife by my side to peel fruits. That's right." Always remind yourself not to forget this matter, because there are too many people who want my life."

After peeling a pear, Yang Guang handed it to Kong Sheng: "Mr. Kong, don't you dislike the pear I peeled."

Kong Sheng's hands shook involuntarily at this time: "Thank you... thank you, Your Highness."

The pear was very cold. Kong Sheng took a bite under Yang Guanggao's gaze: "It's delicious...it's delicious."

Yang Guang followed suit and handed one to Kong Bo.

For the last pear, Yang Guang waved to Wang Tong, who was watching the fish, to come over, handed it to him and said: "Sit down."

Wang Tong took the pear that didn't match his small body and ate it in big gulps.

"Two gentlemen, I think you all know Wang Tong and Mrs. Wang."

"Recognized, naturally recognized."

Yang Guang said: "Master Xiao Wang and I have felt very close to each other since we met. Although Master Xiao Wang is young, he is very knowledgeable. I am also shocked by what he often says. I discussed with him before and came up with one thing. It’s a very interesting thing, I would like to ask the two gentlemen to comment on it.”

The two of them seemed to have fallen into a bottomless pit. They didn't know what Yang Guang was going to do. They were so panicked that they could only nod and ask: "Your Highness, what are you talking about?"

Yang Guang began to say: "Suppose, suppose, there is a sage, and his full knowledge is compiled into a book. It contains the greatest principles in the world. Everyone in the world has learned the principles and followed them. As a saint, the grandson of this sage several generations later said that he was a saint and had the blood and inheritance of a saint. Students who have learned the knowledge of a saint should regard him as a saint. Well, now there is a problem. It is those who have learned the knowledge of a saint. The principles and those who believe in them are the inheritors of the saint, or the children born of the saint inherit his mantle regardless of their character."

Of course the two of them knew what he was talking about, and they remained silent for a while.

Seeing that the two people didn't answer, Yang Guang looked at Wang Tong beside him: "Little Master Wang, what do you think?"

Wang Tong's slightly childish voice sounded: "Bloodline can be inherited, but knowledge and character cannot. How dare the descendants of Lao and Zhuang call them Lao and Zhuang? The descendants of Guan Mo are not special. Those who study the knowledge of saints are their successors."

Yang Guang slapped the table and said: "Yes, hundreds of schools of thought, including the sages Legalism, Taoism, Mohism, Yin-Yang, etc., only passed down knowledge but not family members. Are the descendants of Lao Tzu Lao Tzu? The descendants of Zhuangzi are the same. Zhuangzi?"

Yang Guang's words still received no response from the two of them, and both of them seemed to have made up their mind not to say a word.

Now they are [-]% afraid of Yang Guang and [-]% unhappy.

Yang Guang's separation from Confucius and Confucius was what they were most afraid of and worried about.

Seeing that the two of them were silent, Yang Guang continued to communicate with Wang Tong: "If you assume again, it's just a hypothesis. Now that the Turks have attacked, we are no longer able to defeat us. We want to imitate the Jin Dynasty's dress and cross south. Gentlemen, I invite Kong Mr. Sheng took Confucian classics, statues of Confucius and other things with me and moved south, while Mr. Kong Bo stayed where he was. When the Turks invade in the future, he will recruit Mr. Kong Bo to work for the Turks and grant him official titles. Will Mr. Kong Bo? Will you surrender to the other side and kneel down to worship them?"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible, we can't do such a thing."

Yang Guang poured himself a cup of tea and continued: "Sir, what you said is too hasty. What if we surrender? What if we not only surrender, but also use the name of a saint to help the Turks attack us? Kill our people?" "

"It's absolutely impossible. If something like this happens, I'd rather die."

Snapped

"Mr. Kong's righteous indignation is really moving and iron-clad."

"But Mr. Kong, can your descendants be like you? Can you ensure it?"

Kong Bo: "Immediately say, if there are any unfilial children or grandchildren who dare to do this, I will kill them with my own hands."

Snapped

"Mr. Kong is righteous and has great momentum, but you can't say too much. Who can think of what future generations of children and grandchildren will do with the name of their ancestors? With your family's reputation, you can't let anything go wrong."

Kong Sheng calmed down and said, "Your Highness, Prince, don't worry. In our Kong family, His Highness is the only one who will obey us."

Jingle
Yang Guang gently threw the dagger on the table: "Nowadays, people can't guarantee for future generations. The Kong family is too big and represents Confucianism. In the future, what the descendants will do will be done by Confucianism. The risk is too great." ,Not good, not good."

"Your Highness, it is absolutely impossible for future generations of our children and grandchildren to do this."

"Really? Then could Confucius expect that his descendants would actually assassinate the prince of the dynasty?"

As soon as he said this, Qin Qiong and Lai Huer, who were beside him, took action to capture the two of them.

"Your Highness, there is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding? Come on, bring people up."

After Yang Guang finished speaking, the guards came out from the other end of the garden escorting two beaten women who were not human.

Seeing the two women, the two of them couldn't believe it. They were the other two dead men they raised in Qufu and had trained them since childhood.

When Yang Guang learned that the two people were responsible for the incident, he rushed people to Qufu. He concluded that since the other party had dead soldiers, there could not be only one, and the incident was as Yang Guang expected.

When the other party was unprepared, it was not difficult to catch the dead soldier they kept in their house. They just turned it over and found it.

"I really didn't expect that this family from a scholarly family actually had several dead men in the house, and I have to say that the two Mr. Kong really know how to enjoy themselves. The beautiful maids and concubines in the house are no less than thirty, old Sir, your body and bones are surprisingly strong."

Seeing such a situation, Kong Sheng still held on to the hope of making excuses: "Your Highness, someone must have framed us. This is all a conspiracy. Your Highness, you can't believe the slander easily."

"Now that things have come to this, do you think your denial is still useful?"

"Your Highness, please spare your life. Your Highness, please spare your life."

At this time, the two of them were faced with conclusive evidence and could only do the useless thing of crying and begging for mercy.

"Spare your life? I didn't say I wanted your life."

"what?"

The situation that was thought to be fatal suddenly seemed to take a turn for the better with Yang Guang's words. The two of them immediately expressed their gratitude: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness. Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness."

Yang Guang's cold voice came, like a ferocious beast stroking its sharp claws: "Both gentlemen think what I did was wrong, so I would like to invite the two gentlemen to look at my future together."

"Lai Hu'er will send the two gentlemen to the palace for execution. After the execution is completed, they will be taken to Qufu. The meridians of their hands and feet will be severed and they will be imprisoned in prison to wait for my next order."

After hearing Yang Guang's words, the two begged harder for mercy.

Yang Guang just pretended not to hear, and before turning to leave, he said: "Two gentlemen, please live a long life, so that you can see how far I, Yang Guang, can go."
