Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1233 The new disciple of the Mo family
  Inside the tree canopy, Thief Zhi looked at the people waiting at the front door with great interest, whether they were from the Little Sage Manor faction or the Empire faction.

Even his interest in the famous Three Heroes of Qi and Lu was higher than that of those from the Imperial Faction, but the latter was the task of the Mohist family and it was impossible not to pay attention to them.

"The one at the head is Fu Nian, the current Confucian leader and the leader of the three heroes of Qilu, right?" Bandit Zhi bumped the cook's elbow with his elbow and asked in a suppressed voice.

"Yes, yes." Chef Ding nodded, "But I haven't met him a few times over the years. He is a difficult person to get along with."

"Even the few times I met him, I didn't dare to talk to him. I just wanted to stay away. His aura was particularly strong."

"Hehe, after all, he is the leader of Tai'a, the mighty sword with the third highest score in the swordsmanship. He is also a Confucian leader who is always known for his etiquette. It is definitely not easy for wanderers like us to get in touch with him." Thieves Zhi grinned. It is not difficult to hear the contempt for Confucianism in his words.

This is also understandable. Thief Zhi has always hated the so-called etiquette and rules, and he has a lot of prejudice against Confucianism.

After the unification of the empire, Confucianism almost immediately surrendered and acknowledged the empire's orthodox status. They even ignored the empire's extortionate expropriations and the benevolence and righteousness they kept saying.

This made Thief Zhi even more disdainful of each other.

Cook Ding actually had a fair impression of Confucianism. After all, they had known each other for so many years and relied on others to take care of their business. At this time, he still said something nice:
  "Don't underestimate Confucianism. They are both civil and military practitioners. The one who pays attention to it is called... what... Wen An Tianxia and Wu Ding Qiankun are masters who are not easy to mess with!"

"Although I have never heard of Fu Nian taking action, people within Confucianism say that he is the number one master in Confucianism."

"The number one master of Confucianism... bang!" Thieves Zhi was obviously still a little unimpressed.

How valuable can the top master of a group of so-called intellectuals who only love to manipulate their pens and words be?

However, he had no intention of continuing to diss Confucianism, and turned his eyes to another person, "The one next to Fu Nian is the second among the Three Great Masters of Qilu, the second head of the Confucian family...I remember his name...his name..."

When it came to Yan Lu's name, Daozhi forgot it for a while. He was stuck for a while before he said it, "Oh yes, his name is Yan Lu, right?"

"Hmm...the names are very similar to the names of two sages of Confucianism."

Cook Ding scratched his head while trying to control the range of his movements, and then answered in a daze:
  "Speaking of this second boss... I don't know much about him either."

"These Confucian masters are inherently simple and obsessed with learning. The second master, Mr. Yan Lu, is even more mysterious. His reputation is far less than that of the master Fu Nian and the third master Zhang Lianglai. It feels like... just making up the numbers."

Cook Ding would say this because of the origin of the name of the Three Heroes of Qi and Lu.

Although these nicknames and nicknames were all given by others and not chosen by myself, so there were only wrong names but no wrong nicknames.

But nicknames don’t come for nothing, they have to be based on something.

However, Xiaoshengxianzhuang has always insisted that Fu Nian, Yan Lu, and Zhang Liang are indistinguishable from each other and that they are all outstanding people. Over time, it eventually evolved into the widely spread name of Qilu Three Heroes.

Of course, Yan Lu was considered by many to be just a make-up.

As for why Confucians have to round up this number... most people think it's just to sound good. After all, counting to three can indicate a large number...

"Over the years, including today, I think I have only seen him...three times? Or twice?"

Pao Dingxu couldn't remember how many times he had met Yan Lu before, so he shook his head and stopped worrying, "In short, this person is too mysterious, his origin is unknown, his origin is unknown, his strength is unknown, his personality is unknown, everything is unknown... "

Tao Zhi's teeth hurt when he heard it, "Do you have any useful information?"

"Uh..." After Po Ding thought for a while, he still shook his head, "No..."    "There are many rumors, but they are all vague. It is difficult to tell whether they are true or false. The only thing I can be sure of is that this second-in-command, It’s definitely not simple.”

"...It's like nonsense!" Thief Zhi rolled his eyes.

Seeing that Cook Ding couldn't give a clue, Tao Zhi also shifted his attention to the visiting guests:
  "It turns out that Prime Minister Li Si came to visit. No wonder there was such a big battle. The so-called big shot must also be him."

"He is truly a 'big shot'!"

Cook Ding answered with some confusion, "I remember that Li Si was born in Xiaoshengxian Village. If he came to Songhai, it would be normal for him to pay a visit, but... why are there all these random people with him?"

"And I always feel like there's something wrong with the atmosphere in Little Saint Xian Manor today..."

"The person who came here is not a good person." Thief Zhi responded without blinking, "It seems that this Prime Minister with a Confucian background is not very committed to his master."

After making a joke, Dao Zhijin then asked, "Do you know those three people?"

Chef Ding shook his head sharply, "I don't know any of them."

"The appearance of these three people sounds special. If I have seen them or heard of them, I should remember them. So this is probably the first time they appear in Songhai."

"But Lisz brought them here specially, so they are definitely not a good person!"

………………

In the small sage's village, there are houses in three provinces.

This is the dormitory of the younger generation of Confucian disciples. The name is taken from the words of the sage Zeng Zi, "I examine myself three times a day." It is hoped that every Confucian disciple can examine himself three times before going to bed and gain something.

Of course, whether it actually has any effect or not depends on your own mind. Anyway, the name must have a meaning.

This is not a problem with Confucianism, it is a habit shared by all schools of thought.

Tianming and Shaoyu, who were led into Little Saint Xian Manor by Zhang Liang, are now in Sansheng House.

And the purpose of coming here... is very simple, to change clothes!
  Zhang Liang has prepared two sets of suitable Confucian disciple uniforms. As long as the two of them put them on, they can transform into two new disciples who have recently joined Confucianism - Zi Ming and Zi Yu!
  This is the actual purpose of the first plank in Zhang Liang's brocade bag - to allow the two of them to hide in Confucianism to avoid the danger from the empire.

But getting dressed is sometimes not as simple as others think.

Although Shao Yu had never been exposed to Confucian disciple uniforms, he was born in a noble family and had experienced all kinds of complicated clothing. After a little research, he could easily get started.

Compared to him, Tianming, who had been wandering for half his life and was still illiterate when he returned, was a little dumbfounded.

When Shaoyu turned around after putting on his clothes, what he saw was Tianming who had also put on this outfit with his own stubbornness.

However, compared with the neat and silky Shao Yu, Tianming was more like being tied up than putting on clothes.

Tianming didn't feel like he was being trapped in a cocoon. He was quite proud of the fact that he had put this inexplicable clothes on his body. He also showed it to Shaoyu:

"How's it going? It's pretty good, right?"
