When traveling around the world, his unwavering promotion of ideas was repeatedly defeated by the faces of beautiful women. What could Confucius do? He can't blame his parents for not giving him a handsome face that would appeal to both men and women.
In short, after experiencing the Nanzi incident, Confucius had a psychological shadow on women. He always felt that women were difficult to deal with and were his love rivals for the throne. What's more serious is that the monarch is more willing to believe in the beauties around him than to believe in Confucius, which led Confucius to say the eternal famous saying: Only women and villains are difficult to raise. Those who are close will not be inferior, and those who are far away will be resentful.
Confucius mainly expressed emotion towards the women and villains around the monarch. After all, his main opponents were them. However, complaints are complaints, and Confucius could not change the monarch's attitude. Confucius has seen many monarchs and summed up the general experience. In short, these monarchs must have women and villains around them.
The woman said before, Nanzi of Weiguo. There are even more villains. Those who are jealous of Confucius and are afraid that Confucius will come to seize the throne often praise and kill Confucius in the ear of the king, saying: Confucius is a man of great ability. After he comes, don't everyone want him to be the king?
The king was not happy when he heard this and did not welcome Confucius.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????But they did not say that, but said that Confucius was here to seize the position of the king, and used the king's hands to drive away Confucius. The villain's political methods are much better than Confucius.
What could Confucius do about these situations? He could only turn his grief and anger into appetite, eat up the plate of meat in front of him, and then cheer up and move on.
"Zigong, you should go to Chu State first." After eating, he had to work hard to promote his ideas. Confucius was going to send Zigong to visit Chu State first. He said he would like to invite himself, but there was no movement and no one was sent to respond.
Zigong was ordered to take a long detour with light chariots and fast horses to go to Chu State to see the situation.
But Confucius and the others continued to wait where they were. Anyway, now they had food and drink, so they could just find a big tree for shade and start classes.
When Confucius started his class, the disciples spread out in a fan shape around Confucius and listened to Confucius talk about Zhou rites, the Book of Songs, historical allusions, and benevolence, righteousness, and morality. Yunyao stayed at the back and listened. No one would pay attention to her anyway.
Everyone listened to it, and even a few practitioners could not help themselves, because these theories were new in this era. There was no place except Confucius to listen to it, even six saints had never heard of it.
The saints taught them magic and led them to enlightenment, but they never told how people can organize themselves, how to rely on their hearts to regulate themselves and society, and gave them a moral standard.
Although this standard is very crude, it is enough as a framework.
Confucius is already old, and his ideas are very mature, so he speaks smoothly.
Today Confucius talked about how great the Western Zhou and Eastern Zhou were, how Zhou people regulated their behavior, and how peaceful the world was without war. To put it simply, it is necessary to restore the Zhou rites. It is best to restore the Western Zhou Dynasty, but it does not matter if the Eastern Zhou Dynasty cannot be restored.
After the lecture, there is a question and answer session, where the disciples ask questions and the master answers.
When the cultural classes are over, there will be physical education classes, driving, archery, and fencing. This countryside is the playground.
After the physical education class is over, the core disciples will give one-on-one instruction, usually on how to govern the country, which is equivalent to employment guidance.
??Governing the country includes the process of sacrifices, noble etiquette, etc. It is not only operations such as managing production and training the army, but also more organizational, teaching disciples how to organize a national event from scratch.
If a disciple is familiar with these norms, he can find a job in any country, whether he is a master of ceremonies or a minister.
Confucius had no money to herd cattle and work as a handyman when he was a child, but he was interested in the etiquette of weddings and funerals since he was a child. When he grew up, he began to study etiquette in the State of Lu. During this period, he also served as an official and learned a lot of knowledge. Soon he recruited many disciples, and later he proposed the concept of self-denial and restoration of propriety and peace in the world.
Because he offended the Ji Huansi in Lu State, and the political situation in Lu State was unstable at that time, Confucius chose to leave Lu State to find opportunities to practice his ideas. He has met many kings, so he knows the etiquette of the vassal states very clearly. If he teaches these to his students, it will be more than enough to make a living.
However, even though many disciples have learned the skills, they are still willing to continue to follow their teacher. Zilu and Zigong were both students who had followed Confucius for a long time. They had always been with Confucius, and they were more like Confucius's retainers than students.
After the one-to-one education is over, take the last music class. After all, self-denial and rituals are inseparable from music. Ritual and music are rituals and music.
The students took out their musical instruments and started playing their fingers. The soothing tunes gave people the feeling of an outing, rather than being locked out and almost unable to eat.
Yan Hui came over quietly and said to Yunyao: "Master said, you go to deliver food in the evening, and he will give you a private lesson."
Now that he has accepted a disciple, even if outsiders don't know it, Confucius will still give Yunyao lessons, but only for a short period of time such as a meal. This can be regarded as special care for Yunyao.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome." Taoist Qingxu admired Yunyao very much: "Seize the opportunity."
After the music class, it was time to eat. Yunyao had already prepared the delicious food and brought it in personally. Zilu and Yan Hui were waiting on them.
After Yunyao put down the rice, Confucius asked: "You want to become a disciple, what bamboo slips have you read before?"
"The Book of Songs and the Book of Changes." Yunyao said.
Confucius couldn't help but look at Yunyao. If the other person really understood these two books, he should worship him as his teacher. "Since you have read these two sets of bamboo slips, there is no need to worship me as your teacher."
"Reading means you have read it, but you still have to listen to the teacher's advice." Practice, theory, and practice again Now it is time to activate Confucius' knowledge and intelligence and expand the 'Dacheng Wisdom Project'.
"Okay, then let me talk about the Book of Songs." Confucius said: "You must understand the Book of Songs before you can read the Book of Changes."
Yunyao agreed. The Book of Songs records all aspects, from working people to sacrificial ceremonies, from military battles to metaphors and satires. It can be said to be all-encompassing and truly reflects the lives of people everywhere.
When it comes to "The Book of Changes", it is an abstract extraction of social relations and an in-depth discussion of the relationship between heaven, earth and man. It is already derived from life and higher than life.
There were many disciples around Confucius, but not many could let Confucius teach "The Book of Changes" because these disciples had not yet thoroughly studied the "Book of Songs" and did not have enough insights into life. Learning "The Book of Changes" rashly would only lead to a world of mystery and mystery, and emptiness and emptiness. situation.
"The Book of Songs is about innocent thoughts, and everything recorded is the story of the common people" Confucius was very familiar with the contents of the Book of Songs, and he could tell the story without having to record it.
When Zilu heard this, he thought that the teacher had started teaching the Book of Songs. Did he think too highly of this woman? You must know that he is still not qualified to talk to the teacher about the Book of Songs. Zilu is a reckless man. He is the craziest in the physical education class and the most frustrated in the cultural class. So Confucius didn't bother to talk about "The Book of Songs" with him. This was regarded as teaching students in accordance with their aptitude. The courses are also divided into difficulty levels, from easy to normal to difficult.
Because Yunyao has the basics, she went directly to the normal difficulty level.
The easy difficulty level is to teach some employment skills. On the normal difficulty level, just talking about the Book of Songs is already about chatting and diverging thoughts. The difficulty level is "Book of Changes", thinking about the relationship between heaven, earth and life, and thinking about destiny.
