    "So what is true filial piety and loyalty?" the young disciple asked again.  "Loyalty means obeying when you should obey, and opposing when you shouldn't obey." The Master replied.  "I have one more thing to ask Master." At this time, the first young disciple said again: "What is the way to be a servant? Is there any way to be a servant?" It means that there are only a few masters in the world, and most of them are masters.  Most people still want to be others' servants, so can being others' servants make a difference?  However, Wang Tian saw another meaning from this question. Among the people who practice, the levels are like a pyramid.  There is only one top person, it can be said that everyone is someone else's subordinate.  There are strong ones above the strong, and weak ones below the weak. So how should you deal with this relationship?  The Master replied: "My husband, when you dig it, you can find sweet springs, trees and grains, birds, beasts, fish and turtles. When they are born, they stand there, and when they die, they have many achievements, and they can enjoy the world endlessly, so they say: "Neng"  Is this the only way to be a man?" "It means that a person like this should be like the earth. If you dig it, you will get sweet springs, and if you cultivate it, you will get grains; vegetation will grow on it, and birds, animals, fish and turtles will find their place in it.  When people are alive, they have families and businesses on it, and when they die, they are buried in the ground.  The earth's merits are many but never publicized. However, its contribution to society will never end.  "Although the gift is not sensitive, it is a good thing to ask for," the young disciple said.  After hearing his answer, Wang Tian knew the name of this disciple.  He said that although he was not smart, he would still do what the teacher said. He called himself "Ci", which meant that he was Duanmu Ci, also known as Zigong.  "What is wisdom?" At this time, another disciple stood up and asked.  The question he asked was.  What is wisdom.  "You know the duty of serving the people, respecting ghosts and gods, and keeping away from them." Confucius replied.  His answer was simple, meaning to do things down-to-earth, respect ghosts and gods but stay away from them.  It can be said to be wisdom.  During this period, the gods were at war and came out to win over their followers, preaching their own Taoism and even demonstrating their abilities everywhere.  So much so that a hundred schools of thought contended and various schools emerged.  He can say at this time that he should respect ghosts and gods and stay away from them.  It can be said to be very bold.  Of course, Wang Tian knew that Confucius practiced the way of human saints and was not afraid of certain gods.  He has now become a human saint, and his strength is enough to compete with some gods who are about to fall.  And what he said is very reasonable. These gods will not really teach them the method of cultivation.  Letting people believe in him is just taking advantage of these ordinary people.  Rather than being fooled by them, it is better to do things down-to-earth.  After this person asked, others stood up and asked questions one after another.  "Why does Kong Wenzi call him Wen?" Another disciple stood up and asked.  "Being quick and eager to learn, and not ashamed to ask questions, is what is called literature." Confucius replied.  "Master, what do you think you are?" A disciple stood up and asked.  "I know it silently, I am not tired of learning, and I am not tired of teaching others. What should I do?" Confucius replied.  He answered very humbly, saying that he firmly remembered what he had learned and did not feel bored studying.  Teaching people not to be tired is not accomplished in any of these aspects.  Then many disciples asked questions, and Confucius answered them one by one.  Of course, there are many famous sayings that have been passed down through the ages, such as: "Birds and beasts cannot live together in the same group. Who can live with me if I am not a disciple of this man? There is a way in the world." "Reviewing the past and learning the new can become a teacher." "A wise man enjoys water."  The benevolent will enjoy the mountains" and so on.  "I also have questions to ask Master." At this time, Wang Tian also stood up and said.  His current wisdom is 5w+.  Of course he had his own questions to ask.  Originally he just wanted to ask about martial arts, but since they were chatting so enthusiastically.  Wang Tian also became interested and wanted to have a discussion with him.  "It's great to have friends from far away." Confucius said.  Wang Tian just happened to come in. He didn't know Wang Tian's background yet, so of course he wouldn't treat him as his disciple, but he would call him his friend.  "I remember that the Master once said, '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.' Does the Master's words mean to discriminate against women?" Wang Tian asked.  Of course he wouldn¡¯t drop his book bag when he spoke, so what he spoke was just ordinary vernacular.  If you ask him to drop his book bag, he will do it, but if one drops his book bag, the audience will not bother to study it.  Of course Wang Tian knew that Confucius would not discriminate against women. This was related to his experience. His father married his mother when he was sixty-six years old, and his mother was only twenty-two years old at the time.  It can be said that with such parents, he was definitely closest to his mother when he was a child.  "No." Confucius replied, "Han Zhang can be chaste, walking on frost and ice, Yin begins to condense; tame the way it is straight. If you don't get used to it, there will be no disadvantage"  "That's it." Wang Tian said.  Wang Tian understood that the word "difficult to raise" in his sentence was not a derogatory term, but a neutral term.  It just mentioned a common characteristic of women. In modern terms, it is the word "tsundere".  "If you are close, you will be disrespectful; if you are far, you will be resentful." This sentence means that if you are too accommodating and pampered to her, the woman will think that you are not good enough and do not respect this person very much.  And if you deliberately alienate her, she will feel that you don't understand the style and will be resentful towards you Generally speaking, this is just a characteristic of women.  They value warmth too much and need coaxing from others all the time, so they often lose their temper due to disappointment.  Men have different ways of expressing their feelings. They don't like to express them If they like a man and the other person doesn't express his feelings to her, they will have emotional relapses.  And men don¡¯t like to express themselves, and women can¡¯t stand this.  "The villain is difficult to raise because he has an ulterior mind, deceives the world with deceitful ways, and is difficult to decipher based on common sense."  If you are a gentleman or an ordinary person, you will naturally not understand it, but if you are of the same mind, you will definitely get along with each other.  ¡°Just imagine, how terrible it would be if a narrow-minded villain was with a jealous woman?  Many tragedies that occurred in palace fights in ancient times were caused by this combination.  Therefore, Wang Tian guessed the reason why he said this. He might have met a woman who had a relationship with him.  He said such words after suffering from the other party's arrogance.  So when he said this, it was not a sign of disgust, but a sense of helplessness in it.  Due to political reasons, later generations criticized Confucius on a large scale for a period of time, and they criticized his words thoroughly. In fact, this was just their misunderstanding.  Confucius¡¯s answer to Wang Tian is that it can be steadfast. Walking on frost and ice, the yin begins to condense; tameness leads to the way it is straight and square.  If you don't get used to it, there will be no disadvantage It is taken from the Kun hexagram and also answers this question from the side.  The reason why he didn't answer directly was probably because he didn't want to mention his past events.  Kun, Yin, originally represents women.  Being tame to one's ways, being unaccustomed, and having no disadvantages are all characteristics of women.  The heaven and earth are divided into yin and yang, and all things are divided into male and female. This is the way of heaven.  "The Master once said: 'Be devoted to learning and stick to the good way. A dangerous country without people, a chaotic country will not live in it. If the world has a way, you will see it, but if there is no way, you will hide it. If a country has a way, poverty and lowliness are shameful; if a country has no way, it will be shameful.  It's shameful to be rich and noble You said, "If you have the way, you will see it, but if you don't have the way, you will hide it." If you have the way, then hide it. What's the point? If you don't have the way, then hide it. Doesn't that mean escaping?" Wang Tian then asked.  road.  To put it in layman's terms, his two sentences are the icing on the cake, rather than giving trouble when the time is right.  "If there is a way in the world, you will see it; if there is no way, you will hide it. This sentence is also a famous saying throughout the ages.  It means that those dangerous countries should not enter or settle.  In those well-governed countries, it is a shame for a person to be poor and of low status.  In a poorly governed country, it is a shame to have money and status.  Therefore, if you have the Tao, you will see it; if you don¡¯t have the Tao, you will hide it.  But the reality is completely opposite to what he said. When he was at the end of his rope, he was trapped between Chen and Cai, but the kings of those small and chaotic countries wanted to summon him, so he went happily.  Since there is no way to hide, why go there?  If you don¡¯t have the right to hide yourself, is that an escape?  So Wang Tian asked him this question.  "Respect the Tao and do it." Confucius listened to Wang Tian's question and answered him in only four words.  His answer was very cryptic, and Wang Tian also knew what he meant.  "Is it the Master's way to die in a small country?" Wang Tian asked.  "Yes, this is my way." Confucius replied.  Wang Tian knows the reason why he did this, because he is also one of the hundreds of families.  He also needs his own believers and needs to preach.  However, the teachings he preached were beneficial to people and could not be equated with those of gods.  "What is Tao?" Wang Tian then asked, but he did not pursue the matter further.  If the investigation continues, I'm afraid the two of them will get into trouble.  Moreover, this is his private matter, and it would be impolite to ask about such a thing.  Since you said you should follow the Tao, then what is your own Tao?  In fact, Confucius's sentence "If you have the Tao, you will see; if you don't have the Tao, you will hide" is related to art. He only said it occasionally. Later generations did not know the existence of "art", so they just interpreted this sentence in the direction of Tao.  understand.  This view is very one-sided, but it cannot be hidden from Wang Tian.  When Wang Tian asked him what Tao was, he was asking this question.  Of course, his question was also very cryptic. It would be impossible not to be cryptic in front of so many disciples.  How can the way of cultivation be taught in public?  "The Tao can be Tao, but it is very Tao." Confucius replied. When he heard Wang Tian's words, he stared at Wang Tian curiously, as if he wanted to find out where he came from.  But after watching for a while, he still didn't see Wang Tian'sWhere does it come from?  (To be continued) ps: Thanks to 51 Stone Book Friends for the reward
