Chapter 407 I treat Jia the same way [please subscribe*please vote]

"No need for etiquette!"

However, to his surprise, Yan Yan asked Mo Ya and An Qisheng to withdraw the imperial guard of honor, and did not receive Xunzi with the courtesy of a prince. He just took Shao Siming and Yan Lingji to see Xunzi in ordinary clothes.

"This..." An Qisheng, Mo Ya, and even the entire Bingzhou officials were stunned.

In the whole world, Confucianism is the most important person in etiquette. Yan Yan also came from Confucianism. He should not be unaware of Xunzi's current status in Confucianism.

But they haven't heard that Yanzi's lineage is related to Xunzi.

I have never heard that Yan Yan and Xunzi have any enmity.

"What do you mean, Your Majesty?" Mo Ya didn't believe Yan Yan and didn't know what kind of impact their actions would have on Bingzhou.

Especially if Confucianism spreads, the whole world will think that Bingzhou is ignorant of education and etiquette, and is a barbarian land!

However, Yan went to see Xunzi alone.

Yan Yan was stunned for a moment when he heard Xunzi's words. He thought that Xunzi would be angry, but he didn't expect that the reason for being angry was not because of Yan Lingji's origin, but because Yan Lingji and Shao Siming had learned Taoist martial arts.

"Master should know Wen Zheng's background!" Yan Yan spread his hands helplessly.

"A beautiful lady from the southern country, beautiful and delicious!"

"The late scholar, the uncle of the Yan family, Wen Zheng paid homage to the Master!" Yan Yan seriously saluted Xunzi with the courtesy of a student.

In the room, Xunzi was sitting upright, and tea cups had been placed on the table, obviously he had been waiting for a long time.

"It turns out to be Xunzi!" The moment he saw Old Man Bailu, Yan Yan also knew who had taken action to suppress Old Man Bailu on the grassland.

The smile on Old Man Bailu's face was instantly awkward, but he still managed to hold back his smile and responded, "The master is already waiting in the house."

Xunzi finally commented on the appearance of the two women, but he said angrily, "It's because my Confucian school doesn't have classical martial arts anymore, why should I learn Taoism!"

Yan Yan could sense Xunzi's arrival, and Xunzi naturally knew Yan Yan's arrival as well.

Yan Yan nodded and walked into the room with Young Siming and Yan Lingji.

Xunzi's eyes shifted from Yan Yan to Shao Siming and Yan Lingji. After seeing the two women, he frowned slightly.

"Are you not dead yet?" Yan Yan asked with a smile.

"Yeah!"

He knew that one of the three great masters of the grassland was suppressed by Xunzi, but he was not sure which one Xunzi would suppress.

"I've met Mr. Bing!" In an ordinary inn in Third Prince City, Yan Yan saw Old Man Bailu waiting outside the door.

Yan Yan generously led Shao Siming and Yan Lingji to Xunzi.

It wasn't until he saw Old Man Bailu waiting at the door that he realized that it was Old Man Bailu who Xunzi took action to suppress.

He wanted to teach Shao Siming and Yan Lingji the Confucian classics and advanced martial arts. The problem was that he didn't have the qualifications and abilities back then!
At first, he could learn it by himself, but he was not qualified to teach Confucian classics and martial arts to outsiders.

"This damn rule!" Xunzi cursed again, knowing the rules of Confucianism.

Obviously their Confucian school produced such an incredible and talented monarch, but in the end, the Confucian school did not get any benefit at all. Even if Yan Yan didn't receive any benefits or preferential treatment, even Yan Yan's two wives had nothing to do with Confucianism.

Not to mention Shao Siming, he came from the Yin Yang family and was inherited by the Taoist Longyang Lord. This is the ambiguous origin of the Yin Yang family and Taoism itself.

But Yan Lingji is different. She comes from the barbarian land of Baiyue, but it was their Confucian school who gave her a new identity.

Originally, Yan Lingji was most likely introduced by their Confucian school, so she was naturally close to their Confucian school.

As a result, Yan Lingji is still learning Taoist methods now!
Is it because their Confucians don’t have the art of fire control? Or does his Confucianism not have advanced fire-attribute martial arts?

They have already promoted Yan Lingji to become the Holy Maiden of Baiyue, but she still needs a profound Confucian martial arts classic?

Walk a hundred steps and stop at ninety-nine!

Xunzi became angrier the more he thought about it.

It’s not like there are no Confucians who can compare with Long Yangjun, and it’s not like there are no great Confucians with sufficient social status. If a great Confucian randomly comes out and passes Yan Lingji a profound Confucian martial arts classic, isn’t Yan Lingji one of their Confucians? of people?
"A bunch of trash! They can't be carried away!" Xunzi continued to curse.

Yan Yan also knew who Xunzi was scolding, but he couldn't scold what Xunzi was scolding.

That's all the great Confucians in the entire Confucian school. If they can't afford to offend him, he can still afford to hide.

As for Xunzi's ability to criticize, it is because Xunzi was able to challenge the entire Confucian school in terms of literature and force.

"The same goes for the Yan family. After so many years, they still can't change their idea of ​​living alone. They obviously have such outstanding descendants, but they hide them for fear that I will snatch them away!" After scolding the various Confucian schools, Xunzi was still upset, and even the Yan family scolded him.

"If the teacher had told you, Master, wouldn't you have snatched it away?" Yan Yan asked with a smile.

In order to protect him, the Yan family did not allow any direct descendants of the Yan family to come out to help him or protect him. They mainly let him go without paying attention and paying no attention to him. This made Confucians think that he was just a literary school with a little knowledge, which was a disguised form of protection. It’s Yan Yan.

"Yes!" Xunzi didn't make any pretense.

If the Yan family hadn't deliberately concealed it so that he didn't know Yan Yan's true talent, he would have really come to an end.

As for stealing people from the Yan family? How can what happens to scholars be called robbing?
That's called teaching without distinction. If Yan's family can't teach, Xunzi will teach!
"So, now that you are in a powerful and respected position, you don't even show any etiquette when meeting me?" Xunzi thought for a while and cursed again, but he was not angry.

When he resigned from the Jixia Academy and went to serve Qin, King Qin Zhaoxiang personally went out of the city to greet him. However, when he arrived in Bingzhou, there was not even a decent guard of honor.

"Master, or should I say Confucianism has found its own master?" Yan Yan asked calmly.

"..." Xunzi was silent.

When he entered Qin, he first implemented Confucianism in Qin.

As a result, King Zhaoxiang of Qin and the State of Qin rejected it on the grounds that Confucianism was not beneficial to the country.

This reason is very far-fetched. How could Confucianism, which is good at teaching and governing, be useless to Qin!

It can only be said that Confucians have placed their status too high, so that the world thinks that Confucianism is empty and useless!
As for Yan Yan's question about whether Confucianism has found its own Jia Zhe, he is actually asking whether Confucianism has found a great talent who can sell Confucianism to the princes.

The so-called:
Is there any beautiful jade here, hidden in a casket? Looking for good people and selling them? Confucius said: Sell it! It’s time to sell it! I treat Jia as well.

What it means is that although Confucianism has great talents and great ambitions, it has not found a person who knows the goods, a businessman who can sell Confucianism for a big price.
