Daqin: I, Fusu, can summon the undead

Chapter 26 Zulong: Fusu is right
“Hahaha!” Seeing that his plan was discovered by Fusu, Zulong laughed twice: “Chun Yuyue is a great Confucian scholar. There are so many talented people in Confucianism. If Chun Yuyue is incompetent, how can he convince others and become a great Confucian scholar!”

"Indeed! Confucianism has many disciples all over the world, and there are indeed many capable people, but there are not many great Confucian scholars! The possibility of there being unqualified people filling the numbers is not great! It's just that everyone has their specialties!" Fusu nodded in agreement.

Zulong's face darkened when he heard this. Fusu was saying that Chunyu Yue was just a sham in the imperial court!
Fusu then changed the subject: "I used to agree with Master Chunyu Yue's ideas and worshipped them as treasures, but now I have another opinion, which is completely different from Master's, but also similar in purpose!"

"Oh!" Zulong asked in surprise, "What is your opinion? Tell me if it is correct!"

"Then please give me some advice, father!" Fusu said with a smile.

But after saying this, Fusu did not immediately express his own opinion. Instead, he waved to Ying Gao who was standing outside the pavilion and shouted, "Second brother, come and listen to my opinion! We can also verify each other's opinions!"

Ying Gao didn't dare to say anything, but turned his gaze to Zulong.

"Gao, come here!" Seeing this, Zulong immediately said to Ying Gao with a smile.

"Thank you, father! Thank you, brother!" After getting Zulong's permission, Ying Gao first thanked both of them before he dared to walk into the pavilion.

After entering the pavilion, Ying Gao did not dare to take a seat, but just stood to one side, with his head down and his hands hanging down, looking very reserved.

"We are all family, why are you standing here? Sit down and talk!"

Seeing Ying Gao so reserved, Fusu immediately smiled and spoke again.

"This rebellious son, I haven't even said anything yet!"

Zulong gritted his teeth secretly when he saw this. On the surface, he said with a smile: "Your elder brother is right. Today is a family dinner. There is no need for so many rules. Just sit down and talk!"

"Thank you, father, thank you, brother!"

Hearing this, Ying Gao raised his hand and bowed to the two of them again to thank them before he dared to sit down.

Even if you sit, you should sit on the right side of Zulong, and there is a distance of more than one meter between them.
"Gao! You are being too distant with father and brother! You should sit closer to them!"

Looking at Ying Gao's actions, Fusu said with a smile.

At this time, Ying Gao actually made Fusu see the shadow of Fusu in the ancient books.

Ying Gao still didn't dare to respond to Fusu, but turned his gaze to Zulong.

Zulong smiled and said, "Your brother is right. We are your father and elder brother, so of course we should sit close to you and be intimate with you!"

"Thank you, father. Thank you, brother!" Ying Gao thanked him again, then he carefully stood up and moved to sit next to Zulong.

"That's right!" Fusu said with a smile, "This morning, Teacher Chunyu Yue asked me if I still remembered Confucius' way of entertaining guests. I replied that if you don't learn etiquette, you can't stand. My views on this sentence are very different from Teacher Chunyu Yue's, but we have the same purpose!"

Ying Gao asked curiously, "Brother, what this sentence means is that if you learn etiquette, your character will be clear and your moral character will be firm, so you can stand firm. It means that if you don't learn etiquette and manners, it will be difficult to stand firm. This was passed down from the disciples of Confucius. Is there any difference between them?"

"Of course!" Fusu said confidently, "When Confucianists understood Confucius' words, they overlooked two very important situations! Therefore, they only understood the ideal side and ignored the reality."

"Oh, what's going on?" Zulong became curious when he heard that.

He really hadn't thought about what Fusu said.

"Please give me some advice, brother!" Ying Gao said immediately, pretending to be listening attentively.

Fusu smiled and said, "First, it ignores Confucius' own situation at that time. Confucius was nine feet six inches tall, and according to the "Liezi, Shuo Fu Pian", Confucius' strength was enough to open the gate of the country, but he refused to be famous for his strength. This shows that Confucius could easily carry a door bolt weighing seven or eight hundred pounds (one pound in the Qin Dynasty was about 258 grams), but he just didn't want to be famous for his strength. Think about it, what kind of scene would it be if a nine-foot six-inch tall strong man stood in front of you holding a huge door bolt? If he talked to you reasonably, would you still want to fight him?

In addition, Confucius had three thousand disciples and seventy-two sages. These three thousand disciples were not just farmers who worked hard in the fields. Among them were many literati and aristocrats, strong and powerful men, and even a few former savages. It could be said that there were many talented, powerful and military generals.

Now imagine a 9-foot-6-meter-tall man holding a huge door bolt standing in front of you, with 2,000 or 3,000 scholars, dignitaries, military commanders, and even barbarians standing behind him. If he talks to you about reason and says that he must win people over, would you listen? Would you agree?

Confucius traveled around the countries to give lectures and even stopped two countries from going to war. Do you think he really relied on just his mouth?"

"this?"

When Zulong and Ying Gao heard what Fusu said, their eyes widened.

They really hadn't thought about this, but what Fusu said was indeed true.

In this situation, if Confucius is willing to argue with you, do you really want to use force against him?

Fusu continued, "Master Confucius just wanted everyone to know that in life, one cannot rely on brute force alone, but even more so, one cannot rely on one's mouth alone.

Therefore, learning literature is to make others understand your principles, while learning martial arts is to make others calm down and listen to your teachings. "

"You just said that two points were overlooked. What is the second point?" Zulong asked. He was now very interested in what Fusu said.

Fusu: "The second is the person who understands this sentence. Standing at different heights, one can see different scenery. The person who understands this sentence does not stand at the height of Confucius, so naturally he cannot fully understand what Confucius means.

Because Confucius himself had the military power to intimidate the country, but the person who spread this sentence did not have this ability, so the person who spread this sentence had a somewhat idealistic understanding. He only paid attention to the truth in this sentence, but ignored that the person who said this sentence is the truth. "

Ying Gao asked: "What is your understanding of 'one cannot survive without learning etiquette'?"

Fusu: "Of course~~~If he doesn't learn etiquette to respect me, I will beat him so hard that he can't stand!"

Zulong: “.”

"How could this be? Brother, you must have misunderstood!" Upon hearing this, Ying Gao's face was filled with disbelief.

What Fusu said before did make sense, but when Fusu expressed his own understanding, he suddenly felt like he had fallen from the clouds.

"Of course not! It's just because you haven't reached my level, so you can't understand!" Fusu said with a smile: "Do you want me to teach you by example?"

"Ahem!" Zulong coughed twice upon hearing this. "Fusu, your understanding is indeed biased. Although powerful military force is indispensable, treating people with courtesy is also indispensable!"

Fusu curled his lips and said, "I didn't say I shouldn't treat people with courtesy! What I said is that if someone doesn't learn etiquette to respect me, I will beat him so hard that he can't stand up. In this way, people who don't respect me will learn etiquette to respect me. After all, the force is mine!"

Zulong nodded in agreement and said to Ying Gao: "Gao, Fusu is right! Standing at different heights, there will be different understandings! It is even more important to surpass the master."

He couldn't find any fault with Fusu's words.

He also hoped that Ying Gao, who would inherit the throne of Qin in the future, would have the same awareness as Fusu, and stop being brainwashed by those scholars, and should transcend their thoughts. After all, those people were only ministers, and Ying Gao would be the king.

As for letting Fusu inherit the Qin Dynasty, he didn't expect it at all, and it would be a good thing if there was no war in the future.

Seeing that Zulong also agreed with Fusu's point of view, Ying Gao was speechless and could only reply: "Yes, thank you for your advice, brother. Gao Ding will keep it in mind!"
