Daqin: Queen Mother, you don’t want to enter the priest’s workshop, do you?

Xunzi didn't speak, but stared at the chessboard in a daze.

Now he has doubted whether his previous persistence was right or wrong.

Can the system of enfeoffment really make the world better?

If it was before today, he would have answered yes without hesitation.

But after talking with Ying Xi and seeing the lives of the people, he suddenly felt that the answer seemed to be no.

Kaka-

An insignificant voice came from Xunzi.

Xunzi turned pale with shock, and quickly checked his Dao heart.

I saw that my Dao heart was now dimmed, and it was already full of cracks!

How could this be?

Xunzi was taken aback and didn't understand why it happened like this.

It's time, when Xunzi became Dao, his Dao heart was condensed by his belief.

Now, his faith had collapsed, and what collapsed along with it was naturally his Dao Xin.

But at this moment, he could no longer think of the connection, and only felt a burst of panic.

He felt that it was God's will that Dao Xin became like this.

And the reason why God's will is like this is also telling him that he is really wrong!

Seeing that Xunzi's face changed again and again, Ying Xi said indifferently, "Mr. Xun, actually I know that you have always wanted to change the world, right?"

"It's just that you want to use the enfeoffment system, but I use the imperial examination system."

"How about the enfeoffment system? Although it has not been implemented, I think Mr. Xun is very clear about the situation in the Zhou Dynasty."

"Mr. Xun has also seen the effect of the imperial examination system."

"Which one is better and which one is worse, I think Mr. Xun has already figured it out in his heart."

boom!

Xunzi was struck by lightning again.

The fact that he has been unwilling to face was straightforwardly presented by Ying Xi.Block all his excuses and escape possibilities.

Yes.

Enfeoffment, defeated!

The imperial examination system has won!

Lose yourself.

Win interest, win!

Kaka-

Xunzi's Dao heart once again advanced a little towards the verge of being broken.

His half-immortal realm is also on the verge of collapse.

"Mr. Xun, do you still play this chess?" Ying Xi asked at this time.

Xunzi looked at the chessboard, there were less than one chess piece in total, but the outcome was already clear.

Shaking his head, Xunzi sighed.

"I lost."

The moment Xunzi finished saying these words, his Dao heart was completely shattered!

puff!

A mouthful of blood fell on the chessboard.

The chessboard disappeared and turned into dots of starlight before Xunzi's eyes.

But Xunzi didn't seem to see it.

Now he has completely lost any thought, just like an empty shell.

As far as he is concerned, whether his Dao heart is broken or his cultivation base is exhausted, it is not as good as the collapse of his beliefs over the years.

Everything he insisted on turned out to be wrong!

Not only that, he even made an unforgivable mistake for these wrong beliefs!

Thinking of what he had done before, Xunzi looked at Yingxi, and there was no longer any desire to survive in his voice.

"just kill me."

Ying Xi was a little surprised by Xunzi's sudden words.

He thought it was a great progress to shake Xunzi's mind tonight.

Unexpectedly, Xunzi actually had the desire to die.

His eloquence is too powerful!

But since Xunzi realized his "mistake", Ying Xi had no intention of killing them all.

Instead, he wants to use Xunzi as an example and tell Confucian scholars all over the world, your leaders have already realized their mistakes, you shouldn't do it now, when will you wait?

So, Ying Xi went over and patted Xunzi on the shoulder.

"Mr. Xun, one of your Confucian sages once said that there is nothing good that can be corrected."

"The reason why Mr. Xun has been moving in the wrong direction is not because of Mr. Xun's subjective consciousness, but because he was blinded by something."

Xunzi thought that Ying Xi would immediately give him a good time when he wanted to die, but he didn't expect that Ying Xi not only didn't do so, but even excused him.

This abnormal behavior made Xunzi very puzzled.

"Your Highness, what you want is my Xunzi's life?" Xunzi was still full of thoughts of seeking death.

Ying Xi smiled lightly when he heard the words: "Mr. Xun, it seems that you have misunderstood me very much."

"I have just said that the reason why I want to kill so many people is not because I am a person who likes to kill people, but because they are hopeless."

"But Mr. Xun, you are different. Your desire to die shows that you have seen through everything and understand what is right and what is wrong."

"I would like to invite Mr. Xun to join me in making a contribution to the future foundation of the Great Qin Dynasty, how about it?"

Xunzi's eyes that had lost all light suddenly regained their luster, and he looked at Ying Xi in disbelief.

"His Royal Highness, you really don't want to kill me? Don't kill Confucianism?"

"You, I don't want to kill you, but Confucianism depends on where Mr. Xun leads them."

Chapter 408 Xunzi admits defeat and repays the interest

"I understand."

Speaking of this, Xunzi is not a fool, he knows what Yingxi means is to look at his subsequent performance.

In other words, whether Confucianism will live or die in the future depends entirely on Xunzi's thought.

If under the leadership of Xunzi, Confucianism is still the same as before, trying to make trouble in the dark, then Ying Xi will not be polite anymore.

But if Xunzi can hide from the world with Confucianism, and even stand on Yingxi's side instead, then the future prospects will be broad.

After Xunzi finished speaking and understood, he stood there, motionless, like a stone sculpture.

In his mind, heaven and man are at war.

Where should Confucianism go? This is a question he is considering now.

Ying Xi didn't rush, just waiting for Xunzi's result.

He believed that Xunzi would make the wisest choice before long.

Sure enough, after a while, Xunzi's eyes moved.

Then, he respectfully knelt down in front of Ying Xi.

"His Royal Highness, the old man has lost, but he has also accepted."

"His Royal Highness is right. Times have changed, and my previous ideas no longer apply."

"Here, I assure His Royal Highness that from now on, Confucianism will not take any actions that violate His Royal Highness's orders."

"I would like to use my remaining life to educate the common people and let them understand the good intentions of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Xunzi's expression was extremely serious, as if he was saying some oath.

After finishing speaking, he kowtowed respectfully to Ying Xi before standing up.

But after standing up, when he faced Ying Xi, he still bowed slightly, expressing his respect for Ying Xi.

His respect was not because of Ying Xi's status as the crown prince, but because he was impressed by the wisdom that Ying Xi had just shown!

Before, Xunzi always felt that he was the most intelligent person in the whole world, that's why he stubbornly wanted to return to the era of feudalism.

At that time, he felt that he was right.

But after talking with Ying Xi, he finally knew that he was wrong.

Not only was it wrong, it was terribly wrong.

The current era is no longer the era he understands and recognizes.

This era is the era of Yingxi!

Ying Xi also put away the smile on his face at this time, and nodded slowly as if promising something.

"it is good."

With Ying Xi's promise, Xunzi raised his head and looked at the dim lights in the distance.

There, the students studied their knowledge painstakingly, and laughed happily when they thought about it.

On the street, children chased and played, with happy smiles on their faces.

Vendors, yelling and selling.
