At the beginning, Emperor Yang of Sui was kidnapped

Chapter 73

Xu Mu didn't even investigate, so he pinned the blame for the poison on the Duan family.

In fact, regardless of whether it was the Duan family or not, Xu Mu had to attack the Duan family.

Now that Xianweiju has offended all the restaurants in Luoyang City, sooner or later some people will not be able to resist and make trouble behind their backs.

So Xu Mu had to use thunderous tactics against the Duan family to frighten these restaurants.

Now all the restaurants in Luoyang City are actually waiting to see the excitement, to see who is better, the dragon of Xianweiju, or the local snake of Duan's family.

Xianweiju must not give an inch, otherwise the residence that was finally opened in Luoyang City will be pushed by the wall and everyone.

……

"Live... alive?"

At Duan's house, after Duan Da listened to Duan Xuankun's report, he showed a look of disbelief.

That's arsenic!

Eating it is basically a death sentence, the kind that has no cure!
He reconfirmed: "Really alive?"

Duan Xuankun nodded solemnly, remembering the results of his subordinates' report, he couldn't help but say, "Brother, you arsenic, didn't you just buy fake medicine because you were greedy for cheap?"

Duan Da rolled his eyes and snorted coldly: "I bought it myself at the pharmacy, which pharmacy owner in Luoyang City dares to sell me fake medicine?"

It was a fake hand, and the whole process of buying arsenic was carried out by him himself.

Thinking of this, Duan Da stared at Duan Xuankun, "It's you, the fact that you gave the leg of lamb to the refugees won't be exposed, right?"

Duan Xuankun patted his chest and assured him: "Brother, don't worry, I gave the person who sent the leg of lamb a few bucks and told him to leave Luoyang. It is impossible for us to be involved!"

Only then did Duan Da's dignified expression relax.

"That's good. This Xianweiju is really evil. What's the origin of the Xuanzhen Medical Center? It can even cure the poison of arsenic?"

In the yard, Duan Da paced back and forth and couldn't help muttering.

"Go and investigate. I will see the information about Chen Xuanjin's three generations of his ancestors tomorrow!"

Duan Xuankun looked at his elder brother's solemn appearance, not daring to disobey him, and nodded quickly.

……

In Yongkang, Xianweiju.

The sky was slightly bright, and the buddy of Xianweiju hadn't opened the door to prepare for business, when he heard a knock on the door.

"Brother, I've prepared the Shuxiu for you. Open the door quickly. Whether you can become a teacher or not depends on today!"

Lu Chu shouted loudly, waking up Xu Mu who had been tossed by Lin Qingcheng all night.

Xu Mu reluctantly welcomed Lu Chu into the backyard.

The two dark circles under the eyes are the same as those of a panda.

"This... brother didn't rest well yesterday?" Lu Chu asked worriedly.

Xu Mu rolled his eyes, glanced at the upstairs wing, and sighed softly.

What a crime he did!
Lin Qingcheng was extremely energetic last night, she stayed up all night, and in the middle of the night, she climbed on top of him to dance...

It's only a few months old to toss people like this, and it doesn't look like a law-abiding master.

"You're still quarreling with me when you know you haven't had a good rest?" Xu Mu said angrily.

He couldn't lose his temper with Lin Qingcheng, the main reason was... She couldn't understand it, she could only cry.

Then I have to coax her in turn, which is simply not worth the candle.

The honest man Lu Chuqian laughed, and quickly took out the ceremony he had prepared for Xu Mu, that is, Shu Xiu.

Pointing at these things, Lu Chu chuckled and said, "Isn't Wang Zhongyan coming to Xianweiju today? I prepared Shu Xiu in advance. Whether I can succeed in apprenticeship depends on this!"

Xu Mu looked at the big and small bags he brought in. In addition to meat, there were actually various souvenirs...

For his affairs, Lu Chu has been very worried these days.

First, he wanted to introduce the marriage, but after being rejected by Xu Mu, now he directly introduces the teacher.

After being stunned for a long while, Xu Mu said, "It's only... Chen Shi, Wang Zhongyan will arrive at least one more hour away."

It is simply that the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuchs are in a hurry.

To be honest, Xu Mu was actually a little moved.

It also strengthened the idea of ​​kidnapping Lu Chu.

At that time, tie up his wife and take him to Wanmin City.

Change his fate of being killed by Wang Shichong.

"It's okay, I just didn't eat, so I can have some soup cakes here. This is the famous Xianweiju in Luoyang." Lu Chu chuckled.

Xu Mu shrugged helplessly, signaling him to eat whatever he wanted.

An hour later, Wang Zhongyan arrived as scheduled.

He came here to visit and get acquainted with Fan Zhu.

In particular, the two-quarter-hour delivery method that Fan Zhu figured out was the ultimate in time management, overall planning and scheduling, which seemed simple, but actually contained a mystery.

"It's...unfortunately, my cousin went out early in the morning because of the affairs of several other shops." Xu Mu said with a smile.

Before Wang Zhongyan could speak, Lu Chu stood up and performed a standard etiquette for meeting seniors.

"Student Lu Chu, lick Ren Guozijian's sacrificial wine and meet Mr. Wang."

Wang Zhongyan looked at him, and replied: "I have the impression that last year I gave lectures by the banks of Luoshui, and you came here."

Lu Chu raised his head and said excitedly: "It's...it's...students who are...fortunate to listen...to hear...teaching...students, really...for three...students...fortunate , die...with...no regrets...he..."

Because of his excitement, Lu Chu finished speaking for a long time.

Wang Zhongyan smiled heartily: "You still have the old problem of stuttering when you get excited."

"Lecture? What lecture?" Xu Mu couldn't help asking.

He didn't expect that Wang Tong would hold a lecture last year?

This is good. I have experience in lectures. When I go to Wanmin City in the future, I can hold more lectures like this to promote the spread of academics.

"Last... years old...Mr. Wang...was born...on the...bank of...Luo...water...to give lectures, and there were many...students...to...three thousand...people..." Lu Chu has not yet come from After recovering from the excitement, Xu Mu and Wang Zhongyan had to wait for a while when he spoke.

"These... 3000 people came...from the Da...Sui...prefectures...counties, all...for one...time...junyan, among them...he...Nan Dongheng...Nanyang...Cheng Yuan...Zhongshan...Jia Qiong...Hedong...Xue Shou...Taishan...Yao Yi...Taiyuan...Wen Yanbo...Jingzhao...Du Yan..."

Lu Chu excitedly explained to Xu Mu the awesomeness of the boss in front of him. At first, Xu Mu didn't respond to Dong Heng and Cheng Yuan.

But when they heard... Xue Shou and Wen Yanbo's expression changed, and they gasped.

These two people are cowhide...

Xue Shou was a good friend of Li Shimin, but because he died early, after Li Shimin ascended the throne, he once lamented that if Xue Shou hadn't died early, he would be the best candidate for prime minister.

The same is true for Wen Yanbo. Since he was a child, he was judged by Xue Daoheng, a famous scholar in the world, to be a minister.

As for the others...

Xu Mu felt that being able to be tied with these two by Lao Lu might not be bad.

Be sure to win over!

If you can't fool around, you can tie her back!

Xu Mu thought so in his heart, so...

He stepped forward and began to try to discuss Confucianism with Wang Zhongyan.

Of course, it is not self-indulgent to discuss these issues of Confucian classics.

But...

Xu Mu organized his speech and began to enter his own rhythm, saying: "I heard that Mr. Wang has completed the "Continued Six Classics", and has created many supplementary books for the compilation of Confucian classics?"

The reason why Xu Mu wanted Wang Tong to return to Wanmin City to write textbooks was because of this.

Wang Tong is proficient in Confucianism, he is good at all six arts, he is capable of both literature and martial arts, and he is quite proficient in arithmetic.

More importantly, among the great Confucians of all dynasties, he is the one who likes to write supporting teaching materials the most!
He put forward a new proposition, in order to make people all over the world read and understand books, he personally wrote various simple and easy-to-understand teaching materials.

He devoted his whole life to this, and devoted his whole life to the development of Confucianism and education.

It's just too early to die.

Therefore, he is the ideal candidate for the university president in Xu Mu's mind.

Others, on the one hand, do not have this knowledge, and on the other hand, they do not have this courage.

In the future, the eradication of illiteracy and the popularization of nine-year compulsory education in Wanmin City may fall on him.

Wang Zhongyan looked at Xu Mu, nodded and said, "Exactly."

He compiled the "Continued Six Classics" and various teaching supplementary books, which are well known throughout Luoyang City.

Xu Mu cleared his throat and asked, "I've been confused by a question. I wonder if Mr. Wang can enlighten me?"

Lu Chu was on the side, seeing that the little brother who was not seeking to make progress finally had the desire to study, showing a gratified smile.

"Don't dare to teach me, please tell me." Wang Zhongyan said with a smile rather modestly.

This kind of thing happens almost every day when I go out.

"Since you have continued the Six Classics, you must have mastered Confucianism. Dare I ask you, now that the current situation is turbulent, the world is in chaos, and rebellions are everywhere, what should I do with Confucianism?"

What Xu Mu asked was a general direction question.

As soon as this question came out, Wang Zhongyan was stunned on the spot.

He looked at Xu Mu in astonishment. To be honest, this problem was too big.

And...Xu Mu seemed to speak to his heart.

After continuing the Six Classics and making a new developmental interpretation of traditional Confucianism, he began to reflect on the shortcomings of Confucianism and began to think about the development direction of Confucianism.

Especially in troubled times.

If Confucianism does not develop well, it is very likely that the inheritance will be severed.

Don’t you see, during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period, where is the Mohism, which was not Confucianism or Mohism?

It is because of sticking to the rules and not knowing how to adapt, that they will be cut off.

silence.

The atmosphere fell into embarrassment for a while.

Xu Mu was waiting for Wang Zhongyan's answer, but did not speak.

Wang Zhongyan fell into thinking and didn't speak.

The honest man Lu Chu had no idea of ​​enlivening the atmosphere at all, and he couldn't help thinking about it while watching the play leisurely.

About a quarter of an hour later, Wang Zhongyan opened his mouth and said: "The Book of Rites says that one should cultivate one's body and one's family should be in order, one's family should be in order to govern the country, the country should be governed and then the world should be peaceful.

This is the best answer he has found since he reflected on Confucianism.

however……

Xu Mu shook his head, and retorted: "In troubled times, when encountering swordsmen on the road, Confucianism is not as good as martial arts; the canal is open, and merchant ships come and go, Confucianism is not as profitable as merchants; Governing the country has become empty talk; the world is in chaos, and rebellions are everywhere, and Confucianism is not as good as the art of war.”

Every single word, every single sentence, slammed Wang Zhongyan's answer to nothing.

Wang Zhongyan's face was pale, but he was not angry.

He understood that Xu Mu was right.

He had never had the arrogance of being a great Confucian, and he immediately bowed to Xu Mu: "Dare to ask where is the way out for Confucianism?"

Xu Mu thought in his heart that he finally took the bait.

There was a smile, and the words were not surprising, and he said the four famous sayings that Zhang Zai said in Guanzhong hundreds of years later.

"Students of Confucianism should think that the heaven and the earth should establish their hearts, establish their lives for the living and the people, inherit the unique learning for the past saints, and create peace for all generations as their duty!"
