"Hundreds of years ago, the Duke of Ji slandered the King of Zhou Yi, which caused the Duke of Qi to be killed by the King of Zhou Yi. The people of Qi mourned him and gave him the posthumous title Duke of Ai. Since Duke Ai, it was passed down to the sons of Duke Xiang of Qi in the ninth generation, and Duke Xiang of Qi sent troops to destroy Ji State. , reported the revenge of the Ninth Generation for Qi Ai Gong, and the world praised it. The custom of the world is that the family feud is only discussed in the fifth generation, but the national feud is not limited by generations!"

Nanzi pointedly pointed out: "It's not just the state of Qi and Ji, but the state of Song has a much greater national feud! Zhou was originally a small state that surrendered to Yin and Shang, but by chance, he killed Dayu and killed 100,000 people. Abused the body of Emperor Xin's head. We were forced to surrender to Zhou, as guests of Zhou rather than courtiers, but we dare not forget the battle of Muye and the shame of Chaoge's fall in our hearts."

"Song State was surrounded by Zhou people's states of Zheng, Cao, Chen, Lu, etc., but they have always adhered to the utensils of the Yin Shang, the etiquette of the Yin Shang, and the customs of the Yin Shang, although the twentieth generation is particularly unwilling to change. After the people of Yin, they brought Zhou Li to Shangqiu to preach and spread them in a grand manner. It is a matter of forgetting their ancestors. People of Song will admire your knowledge, but they will not accept your theory. This is also a huge Song country, except for Sima Ziniu Because of entering your door..."

Confucius' yearning for the Zhou Dynasty system and his reverence for the Duke of Zhou were obviously based on political ideas and transcended personal grievances and clan positions. But in the face of Nanzi's questioning, there is no way to refute it.

He had previously dreamed of being the Grand Master of Song Gong, and the naive idea of ​​putting his ideas into Song was shattered in the face of the cruel reality pointed out by Nanzi, and he could only sigh and say: "Of course, the people of Xia were buried on the east stairs, and the people of Zhou were buried in the eastern stairs. Xijie, between the two pillars of the Yin people, I will still be buried between the two pillars after my death, and I will always be a Yin person." Although from Zhou. But it could never be used by the Yin people, and Confucius was also confused. In the end, it was Nanzi who pointed this out for him.

"Yes, this is the hatred that the people of Song will never forget. Also, there is kindness!"

Having said that, Nan Zi's eyes suddenly softened a lot.

"The year before last, when the people of Song faced the Le Daxin coup and seized power, the four sons ordered the monarch. At the time of the crisis, it was the Zhao family, and it was the gentleman of the Zhao family who saved the Song Kingdom!"

Nanzi's eyes flashed with brilliance, as if she saw Zhao Wuxi, who was jumping into Shangqiu when she pushed Song Jinggong off the high platform of Tong Palace. He is the sun in her life, and she is willing to be a moon, even if it will never be able to shine together in the sky. But it can always reflect his brilliance.

"Every day is gone, and you and I are dead!" This was originally a curse, but when she came to Nanzi, it represented her determination. Regardless of whether others had it or not, she was adding fire to Zhao Wuxi's hegemony. Success is all glory, and failure is the determination to die.

"It was the Zhao family who supported the country of Song and protected the people of Song from being invaded by the enemy state. Shangqiu can keep it, and the government of Song Dynasty can survive. I don't need to be plundered by Fuchai and go to the wild land of Wu country to serve as a **** They all rely on Deze, a gentleman of the Zhao family. In order to repay him, I took the monarch and the people of Shangqiu Song. In front of the ancestral spirit of Wei Ziqi, in front of the Tao of Heaven and the gods, I made an oath: Song Guo owes Zhao's kindness is a kindness that will never be repaid."

"So once the Zhao family is in trouble, the Song people will never back down!" Nanzi is now a staunch fighting faction, and she uses her power and prestige in the country. Overwhelmed by the emperor who advocated staying out of the way, Song's war machine was fully operational after the autumn harvest.

Kong Qiu, who has always disliked war, lowered his eyes: "It seems that the determination of the Song Kingdom cannot be restored by Qiu. The goddess and goddess respect the gods and gods for the sake of war."

Although he knew that Confucius could not see himself outside the curtain, Nanzi raised his chin high: "Yes, and the Master's words and deeds against heaven and ghosts and gods in Shangqiu may make the Song people shake their determination to participate in the war, which is inconsistent with Song's national policy. …”

"What does the lady want from me?"

"I want the Master to leave the country of Song!"

After saying that, before Confucius could recover from his shock, Nan Zi's mouth showed a small smile of complacent revenge for a little girl's personal vendetta.

"This is not a request, it is a decision that has been handed over to the monarch. Nanzi invited the master to speak in the palace this time, just to tell you this: Song Jun has decided to expel the master from the country!"

...

He once had the will to govern, but was despised by Yan Ying, whom he had always admired, saying that he "could be eloquent but unable to govern the country with statutes. If you plan to use this system to reform Qi, it may not be a good way to govern the people."

Therefore, Confucius could not get the appointment of the Marquis of Qi in the state of Qi, and could only return to the state of Lu without accomplishing anything.

Needless to say about the affairs of the state of Lu, his ideals were based on the unreliable Lord Lu and the fragile Sanhuan, and they were destined to not last long.

Now, he's broken again in the Song Kingdom...

Confucius stayed in the hall for half an hour. Before entering, he was in a high mood. The victory of the debate between heaven and man gave him a glimmer of hope again.

But when he came out, although Confucius still behaved politely, the aura on his body was in vain.

When he entered the palace, his footsteps were brisk, but when he left the palace, he felt that his steps were difficult. When he finally arrived at the palace gate, he saw his disciples Yan Hui and Zilu looking at him worriedly.

"Master, how is it? What does Song Jun say?"

Confucius smiled and shook his head helplessly. He didn't know how to speak to the two disciples, saying that Song Jun and Nanzi limited him to leave Song within half a month, and they were about to start a life of homelessness again?

It's really hard to say, Yan Hui, Zilu, which of these proud disciples is not a talent who can be a minister, a minister, or even a Sima of a country. However, they abandoned their future, and followed themselves to wander among the nations, studying and becoming an official, but their great years were delayed on the way...

However, it was raining overnight, and at this moment, two hurried disciples, Yuan Xian and Gongliangru, came to the street in the distance. When they got close, they panted and said: "Master, just now, a team of Song soldiers went straight to the big mulberry tree where we usually practice rituals and felled the tree!"

"what!"

The disciples were very surprised, but Confucius expected it.

"The official government of Song state is openly announcing that this state does not welcome Confucian scholars who practice Zhou Li..."

The poem has a saying: People in this state are not willing to valley. Words and words, return to our nation.

But even if he returned to the state, he was still despised by others. Compared with taking the initiative to leave the state of Lu, being expelled from the state of Song where his ancestral home was also made Confucius sad.

Up to now, he couldn't tell whether Nanzi made things so difficult for their master and apprentice, whether it was out of the justice she claimed, or out of the little girl's personal hatred.

Confucius turned his head and looked at the side halls where Nanzi used to be, and said in a low voice with a gloomy expression, "It's only women and villains, it's hard to support them!"

"Let's go, the world is so big, I don't believe it, there is nowhere to hold a case from the Master!"

However, the disciples seem to have become accustomed to running around among the feudal lords, and Zilu, who claims that even if Confucius goes to sea by boat, will follow closely to the land of Jiuyi, said carelessly, "Since we are not allowed to be in Song Dynasty, where should we go next? "

Where to go...that's a difficult question.

In the summer, Confucius had received an invitation from the Jin state, and Zhongmu Zaifuxi invited him to be a guest. But at that time, the conflict between Confucius and the official government of Song was not so big that it was incompatible, and Zilu also expressed that he did not want him to go, so he gave up.

Now, even if he wanted to go, he couldn't go. It was said that Zhongmu had already surrendered to the Zhao clan.

Looking at the eager eyes of his disciples, Confucius finally made up his mind: "Xiangxi, we will go to the hometown of Zichan and go to Zheng State!"

...

On September 9, it is advisable to climb high.

It was a sunny day, the sky was high and the clouds were clear. On a small hill in the south of Handan City, more than ten people were climbing up and looking into the distance. In the middle, a young general was leading with a dogwood on his head and a sword on his waist. Hu Ben with a sword, or a well-dressed military officer.

It was Zhao Wuxi and his subordinates, and there were densely packed tents under the hills. An army of 20,000 had already arrived in Handan!

"Zhong Mouzai, you are knowledgeable and knowledgeable, but do you know the origin of this September 9th?" After looking at him for a while, he looked back and asked the thin middle-aged scholar beside him.

Fo Xing was asked to accompany the army with Zhongmou soldiers, and the military power was stripped away. He naturally knew that Zhao Wuxi was wary of himself. It was useless for him to be independent in the past. Life is from.

"In the Book of Changes, six is ​​designated as the yin number, and nine is designated as the yang number. On September 9th, the sun and the moon are yang, and the two and nine are heavy, so it is called Chongyang, also called Chongjiu. This day should be ordered by the family to take Bring out the grain harvested in August, climb the high hills to eat the emperor of heaven, worship the ancestors..."

After Buddha finished speaking, he glanced at the cornel on Zhao Wuxi's head, but this was the first time he had seen the habit of wearing cornel on nine days.

No shirt and nod, the prototype of the Double Ninth Festival has already appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period, but it only exists in the families of the emperor, princes, lords and other powerful families. It will be spread to the people in the Qin and Han Dynasties of the Warring States Period. As for inserting cornel, it is his first creation~www.mtlnovel. com~ Zhao Wuxi explained it this way: "Nowadays, there are many people in Handan, Bairen, Xintian, and Linzi who are afraid of me and curse me. Cornel is a thing to ward off evil, so it's okay to wear it."

Everyone said it was, and many clever officials followed suit, so after everyone climbed high, they put dogwoods on them, or wore chrysanthemums that bloomed in September.

Wu Xie added: "Zhong Mouzai is right. Today, the brothers in the clan should gather together, climb high places, and offer sacrifices to thank the emperor and ancestors for their kindness. It's a pity..."

It's a pity that the far-know brothers climbed high and planted cornel trees everywhere!

Zhao Wuxi pointed to Handan City Road with clear walls in the distance: "It's a pity that the Zhao family has a little brother, Handan, who has been away from home for many years. Before winter, we must let him submit to worship!"
