Chapter 437
As Xunqiu finished speaking, many great scholars suddenly changed their colors.
An impatient person could no longer help but scold: "Boy, do you know how amazing your arbitrary theory is, how can it not be tolerated by the world? You are seeking death!"
There was also the elder who was very thoughtful: "Xunzi, it is indeed a good thing for young people to be sharp, but if they are too sharp, they will be hard and easy to break."
There were many people who didn't speak, just smiled slightly and watched coldly.
Everyone has jealousy, and not everyone is willing to admit that others are stronger than themselves.
Xunzi's father and brother were stunned when they saw this.
They had never read Xunzi's test papers, nor did they understand the real situation, so they could only look confused.
The Confucian priest raised his head and shouted coldly: "How can it be so noisy!"
The lobby was quiet again.
The Confucian scholar turned his head to look at Xunzi, and after a while, he shook his head, unable to hide his disappointment.
"Although I appreciate your talents very much, you should also know where I came from. Other matters are easy to say, but if this involves Mencius's theoretical principles, I have to fight for it. Do you understand?"
Xunzi nodded silently.
Confucian scholar sighed and stood up: "Think about it carefully. You still have time. I hope to solve this problem before things get worse. If I continue to delay, I am afraid that I will want to protect you at that time, and I cannot do it for it."
After saying this, the Confucian priest nodded to Xun's father and brother, and left Xun's home with a group of Confucian scholars.
A small confrontation between Confucianism and Legal scholars may not be anything to the general public, but in the eyes of many interested people, it represents different meanings.
Zhao He listened to Fei Yi's report and couldn't help laughing: "I thought they would only find out after the palace examination."
Fei Yi shook his head and said, "The king is joking. He has already finished two rounds of exams. If he still can't see Xunzi's talent, he will be a vain as a priest. However, the Confucian reaction is so great that the old minister did not expect it in advance."
Zhao He smiled and said, "Master, this time I protect you, do you think you have found a treasure?"
It turns out that the reason why Fei Yi went to Xunqiu's family and got married was not a whim, but was due to Zhao He's instructions.
Fei Yi smiled bitterly and said, "The king is joking. I'm afraid someone will say that the old minister will use his official position to promote Xuncun."
Zhao He laughed and said, "It's okay, the ranking of this palace examination was written by me. Can anyone else gossip? But I have to make an agreement with you in advance. If Xunzi's performance in the palace examination is indeed inferior to others, I will not let you go because of your own sake."
Fei Yi looked calm and said, "This is true for the king."
Zhao He touched the beard under his jaw and said, "Okay, if that happens, the previous idea has been almost achieved. I guess you just need to wait."
Fei Yi looked obviously worried and couldn't help asking: "King, then Xunqiu is just a young man after all. Can he really withstand such a great amount of pressure?"
Zhao He said seriously: "Mencius, a great Confucian wise man, said that God will give great responsibilities, and a person must first suffer his mind and mind, exhaust his muscles and bones, starve his body, and lose his body, and act in turmoil. Therefore, he has moved his heart and endured his nature and helped him to do what he could do. Xunzi is very optimistic about him, and I believe that you think he has great potential. But a person's potential alone is not enough. Potential and talent are fake and empty before it is fulfilled. So I just want to force him to reveal his potential and talent, and hone his talents, so that he can truly become a talent and truly contribute to me and Zhao, right?"
Fei Yi was stunned and thought to himself that what you said was indeed light, but this kid is my husband's grandson-in-law. If you are tortured by the king, you will become a useless person, then my husband's precious granddaughter will be in trouble in this life.
Maybe it's time to consider whether to marry Xunqiu if he doesn't love so much
Fei Yi said seriously: "The king is right. Young people do need to be tempered. However, the old minister thinks that it should be done. If the pressure is too high, I am afraid that Xunqiu's family's small family will not be able to hold on."
Zhao He thought for a while and said with a smile, "That's right. Fat Master, please let your son go to the Xun family as soon as possible, and the engagement will be settled first. In this way, at least no one will make any forced actions."
Fei Yi frowned and said, "But Xunzi's problem lies in his thoughts and theory. What if someone wants to attack this?"
Zhao He shrugged and said, "The truth is the more you argue, the more you become clearer. Since Xunzi himself put forward the theory of rituals, he will suffer from other people's questions. As long as he can express his own truth, will all the doubts be broken? No one can help him and let him do this by himself."
Fei Yi nodded slowly: "Hey, I understand."
In the following period, Xunqiu's home began to become lively.
A single person came to visit, and there were so many people that he was almost breaking the threshold.
Among them, many people simply want to meet this big man who will definitely make a difference in the future after winning two yuan in a row, and see if he can hug Xun's thighs and become an official or follower under Xun's hands in the future. After Xun's title of a noble official, he becomes a retainer, etc.
But there are also many people who come because of Xunzi's test papers.
After the Xunzi Academy exam spread, I don’t know which guy secretly took out the Xunzi’s first exam test papers and spread them. The two test papers confirmed each other, and the "nature evil theory" contained in it was about to come out, and anyone could see it clearly.
As Confucian sacrificial wine said, the situation began to become a little uncontrollable.
Many young Confucian scholars came to Xunqiu with the intention of cleaning up the door or making a name for themselves, asking him why he was so ruthless and made such a completely opposite argument to Mr. Mencius.
To be honest, if it weren't for Xiangbang Feiyi's granddaughter and Xun Zi's engagement, and the news of the official marriage after the examination of the academy was over, then perhaps someone would have considered whether to learn from Confucius's killing Shao Zhengmao and directly physically eliminate Xun Zi, the heretic.
**I can't handle it, but I can still do it mentally.
