Chapter 16 The Awakening of Trolls
Li Shimin walked in with a gloomy face.

Looking at Qin Huaiyu, his eyes were full of evil.

Qin Huaiyu stood up in a hurry and said with a flattering look on his face: "Your Majesty, why are you here?"

"Hey, Mr. Qin has such a bad temper."

Li Shimin said angrily: "My home, I can't go back by myself?"

"Okay, okay, okay, I'm redundant, I'm leaving now!"

Qin Huaiyu finished speaking quickly, turned around and ran away.

If you were caught teaching people how to speak, if you didn't hurry up and run away, are you waiting to be beaten?
"stop!"

Li Shimin grabbed Qin Huaiyu by the collar and pulled him back.

Qin Huaiyu naturally did not dare to resist, so he could only stand beside Li Shimin obediently and with a low eyebrow.

"If you don't explain your 'whispering' to me today, I will treat you to a meal of water and fire sticks."

"I promise to make you feel happy, how about that?"

Looking at Li Shimin's eyes full of malice, Qin Huaiyu wanted to run, but he didn't know where to run, so he could only turn his attention to Queen Changsun for help.

Empress Changsun is so angry and funny, you fooled my son and you still want me to save you?
However, the eldest grandson still said: "Your Majesty, this kid is injured, so don't scare him."

"Humph!"

Li Shimin snorted softly: "I saw that when he said that slur, he was very energetic and didn't look hurt at all."

"Father!"

Little fat Li Tai finally found his savior and said with tears in his eyes: "This guy spanked me, please spank him quickly!"

Qin Huaiyu stared.

You little fat guy, if you can’t fight it yourself, just ask your parents!

"Qin Huaiyu, if you don't explain your nonsense clearly today, you can sleep on the floor."

Li Shimin hugged the little fat man and said sadly: "Anyway, your kid has extraordinary martial arts skills and excellent physical fitness. It's no problem to sleep on the cold floor for two days."

"Haha." Behind Li Shimin, Kong Yingda stroked his beard and said with a smile: "I am also very curious about how to interpret Qin Xiaoyou's words, 'If you hear the Tao in the morning, you will die in the evening.'"

Looking at the old man with a black and white beard, Qin Huaiyu hesitated. If the old man listened to his remarks, he would be so angry that he would beat himself to death, right?

"Say it, why didn't you say it?"

Seeing Qin Huaiyu hemming and hawing, unable to say a word for a long time, Li Shimin started to feel weird again.

Damn, just say it!
Qin Huaiyu said loudly: "What this means is that if I find out the way to your house in the morning, I can rush to your house and hack you to death in the evening!"

Li Shimin's forehead was throbbing with veins.

Why does he want to beat this bastard to death so much!

On the contrary, the old man with a gray beard laughed heartily: "Interesting, really interesting."

"I didn't expect that the words of the sages could have such an interpretation."

"Sir, do you think what this guy said makes sense?" Li Shimin looked at Kong Yingda as if he had seen a ghost.

"Why not?"

Kong Yingda stopped laughing and said: "Although his method of understanding is not the mainstream Confucian concept, it is indeed somewhat wrong."

Hearing this, Qin Huaiyu was shocked.

This old man doesn't seem to be one of those rotten scholars who study hard.

"Don't look at me like that." Kong Yingda seemed to sense Qin Huaiyu's surprise, and said with a half-smile, "I am the one who is here today. If it had been anyone else, you kid would have been sprayed to death!"

Qin Huaiyu nodded in agreement.

Don't talk about openness or not. The struggle between doctrine and speech has been a life-and-death struggle since the Warring States Period.

As a phased victory, Confucianism reached its peak moment in the Song Dynasty.

It's a pity that the dragon slayer turns out to be an evil dragon.

"Boy, what kind of book do you think The Analects of Confucius is?" Li Shimin suddenly asked.

"What do you think, Your Majesty?" Qin Huaiyu started to kick the ball. "The words of the sage are the principles of governing the country."

I don’t know if Li Shimin meant what he said.

"What about you?"

Qin Huaiyu thought for a while and said, "This is a book compiled by Confucius' disciples and his disciples."

"It mainly embodies Confucius' political, ethical, moral and educational concepts."

"But it is a pity that today's Confucian students have almost forgotten these fundamental things."

"Perhaps, for them, the current Analects is more like a tool to highlight their own uniqueness, rather than a book of saints for self-cultivation and governance."

Perhaps Kong Yingda's attitude infected Qin Huaiyu, and he couldn't help but say a few more words.

Li Shimin's eyes suddenly changed when he looked at Qin Huaiyu.

"Shut up!" Li Shimin glared at him.

As long as you know this, why do you dare to say anything?
Kong Yingda was taken aback.

There was silence for a moment, and then he said: "How can you see it?"

Kong Yingda understood that what Qin Huaiyu said was true, but this was a matter of Confucian face. Even if this face was just a fig leaf, he would not allow others to tear it off easily.

Empress Changsun walked quietly behind Li Shimin and looked at him worriedly.

Li Shimin calmly shook his head.

If Qin Huaiyu can't come up with a reason that is enough to convince Kong Yingda, this matter may be difficult to solve.

"Confucius Shengyun said, if three people are walking together, there must be my teacher. Liezi once wrote a story about two children arguing about the sun to praise Confucius's spirit."

Qin Huaiyu had no idea that the person in front of him was named Kong. Without any fear in his heart, he began to take things seriously.

"Then I dare to ask this gentleman, can today's Confucian students still have such a spirit?"

"certainly……"

"Of course not!"

Without waiting for Kong Yingda's response, Qin Huaiyu said directly: "They only recognize great scholars who are famous all over the world, and they only recognize the famous family of Mianhuasuliu..."

"As for the children on the roadside..."

Qin Huaiyu smiled coldly, his eyes full of ridicule, which was self-evident.

Kong Yingda opened his mouth again and again, as if he wanted to say something, but no sound came out.

An old face was flushed.

Because he knew that the students in Chang'an were basically in that state.

"Bullshit!"

A cold snort attracted Qin Huaiyu's attention.

The man was skinny, his eyebrows were as cold as stone, and his eyes were even more sharp. He was obviously not easy to get along with.

"I don't deny that there are many scum among Confucian students, but you can't generalize!"

Wei Zheng looked at Qin Huaiyu and said coldly: "At least, students from my humble family don't have these bad habits!"

Kong Yingda glanced at Wei Zheng dissatisfied.

Why are you still pulling and stepping on it?

"Yes." Qin Huaiyu smiled: "I don't know if they have these bad habits, but I know that the reason why they don't have these bad habits is probably because they are short of money and can't afford it."

"You are messing around!"

Wei Zheng's face turned red with anger and he glared at Qin Huaiyu fiercely.

"Okay, let's change the question."

Qin Huaiyu shrugged his shoulders and asked aloud: "What do you think of the four words scholar, farmer, industry and commerce?"

Faced with this question, Kong Yingda and Kong Yingda almost unanimously gave the same answer...
