Chapter 229: Inside and Outside Hundred Feet of Sighs (Twenty-four)

Gongsun Ze knew that the last hundred feet away was no longer able to cross.

Lament in my heart.

What supported him to continue stabbing the dagger was just the obsession in his heart. He hoped that he would die in this battle in the end, at least he felt that he had died as much as possible.

When the disciples of Confucius fought in the chaos, they were finally chopped into meat sauce. He felt that he would have ended up like this.

How many times have you been stabbed in the body?

He could not remember clearly, and he felt that the dagger that had been following him for more than ten years was getting heavier and heavier.

It was clear early, but everything in front of me was getting darker and darker.

When the vest was stabbed again, Gongsun Ze seemed to hear a cry faintly.

He could understand the Song dialect, but because his eyes were dark, he thought for a long time but couldn't figure out what it meant.

"Stop the fight? What is this?"

This word that is easy to understand on weekdays, but I can't think of what it means.

The blood was still flowing, and his eyes became darker and darker. Gongsun Ze felt that he was going to die, so Ji sat on the ground and saw in a daze that the red-eyed parties who had originally killed stopped. A group of strangely dressed people rushed over and forced the two groups to separate.

Even though his consciousness was a little blurred, Gongsun Ze still recognized the person who took the lead. It was the one who won three games with him back then and was saying something.

"Yes... I should know what the fight means... He is an eloquent person."

Thinking of this, Gongsun Ze wanted to shout, but he didn't hear the sound, and he didn't know if it was shouting out.

With his legs running over from not far away, Gongsun Ze no longer had the strength to look up. He didn't know if the person who came was suitable, but he tried hard to stretch out his bloody arm and stopped the man.

"What does it mean to fight?"

Gongsun Ze breathed hard and asked this sentence.

Shi squatted down, looked at Gongsun Ze, who was sitting on the ground, and glanced at Gong Zaoye beside him. Gong Zaoye shook his head and signaled that it was no longer possible.

Looking at the person who could easily kill himself three or four years ago, I sighed.

There were gentlemen in the Spring and Autumn Period, and there were wandering men in the Warring States Period.

The Spring and Autumn Period has ended at the moment when the three families divide Jin, and the era of gentlemen has passed.

If you want to think about it, such a gentleman may be the best at this moment.

So he was not sad, so he approached Gongsun Ze and said solemnly: "For the benefit of the people of Shangqiu, the country of Song, the people and the people of Song, should stop the battle and the troops."

Gongsun Ze reacted for a long time before he understood the meaning of it. He stretched out his hand and grabbed Shi's arm and said, "Shi, since he was fighting, why did I fight before?"

Gongsun Ze couldn't figure it out, not because he was afraid of death, but because he didn't know what the meaning of his death was.

Fighting, rebelling, and then fighting... Is there any difference between dying yourself and immortal?

He immediately pulled Gongsun Ze's arm and said slowly: "Fighting is to not fight. Song Gong is fine. If you don't fight, Song Gong who gave you a fief must be dead."

When Gongsun Ze heard this, his whole body became relaxed, and his arms slowly sank, as if he had obtained a satisfactory answer.

When he was about to close his eyes, Gongsun Ze suddenly thought of something and opened his eyes suddenly and said, "Will the morality of the Mozhe spread throughout Shangqiu? But you are burial... I am going to die, please treat it with a 'scholar funeral'. I am not Mozhe, and I don't want to use your rules. You just need to tell my family for you... If you can meet you, please say that I will die for you."

He just made his request, and without waiting for the right answer, he heard a person behind him crying. Gongsun Ze thought for a long time and knew that it was the servant who followed him.

The servant who once taught archery art and archery to compare with Shi.

Gongsun Ze thought of Yan Hui and said, "There are fifty acres of land outside the Guo Dynasty, which is enough to give porridge; the ten acres of land inside the Guo Dynasty are enough to make silk and hemp."

So I thought that I had a small piece of fiefdom and private land, and my family had no worries about food and clothing, and there was nothing to give me.

However, the bet with the right kind of person a few years ago has not ended.

He agreed to have a stool ritual and stool art competition in ten years, but he didn't want to give up. Even though he had already lost those three games, he still didn't want to bet for the sake of betting, so he didn't want to talk about all the winning or losing, but just wanted to keep this promise in mind.

He felt that he could not give so much advice, so he only said a few words.

"The teacher died and the disciple died for three years. The ten-year agreement is to postpone it for three years."

"He learned Confucianism, so please find a Confucian scholar who is good at shooting for him in three years. Don't let him learn Mo."

After saying that, he grabbed his hand hard and closed his eyes.

Shi knew that Gongsun Ze was dead and knew that he could not see anything, but he nodded at Gongsun Ze and said silently: "You are a gentleman, but you were born in the Spring and Autumn Period and lived in the Warring States Period."

…………

Not long after, before the palace.

The Yi Shi of Pei County and the people stood with spears and spears, separating Song Gong's army, Sicheng Emperor, Liuqing and others a hundred feet away.

Several Mohists in the lead stood in the center.

Except for the people in the center, the people on both sides looked ugly.

Duke Song was guarded by soldiers and hated the rebellious nobles.

The nobles such as the Six Qings hated the Mozhe and the people who had broken their plans after they appeared.

The people stared at Mr. Song, and when Mr. Song refused to agree to their conditions, they immediately turned against each other.

Gong Zaoye held the sword, stood in front, followed closely, and said to everyone present: "Today, the troops were stopped, and the Mohist was the guarantee, and he was the people who asked the people to benefit Shangqiu. Who has any objection?"

Everyone listened to the sound of Chu people siegeing the city from the distant city walls, looked at the Mo people who did not look back at the city walls, and looked at the incited people without any objection.

He took out a piece of paper from his arms and said, "Today's affairs, the Mo family members discussed the righteousness. As for the Juzi, the Juzi sent the Mo family's secretary to draft a copy, and to stop the military affairs, he made the following oath. Please listen quietly."

"First, today's affairs are all for the people of Shangqiu and the people of Song, and they are not guilty. Within ten years, the fiefs and official positions of all the ministers and officials remain unchanged. If there are any dead, they will not be within the ten-year agreement."

"Secondly, within ten years, the king and the ministers will not fight each other. Anyone who has turned against the alliance will be punished by the Mohist family."

"Third, the pension and funeral of those who died in this civil strife will be given by the Lord and the six ministers who participated."

After finishing the study, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this was all the conditions the Mohist family wanted.

It is extremely short and only three short. It sounds like a content of an oath, so that both parties can accept it.

Song Gong was acceptable because he was very weak now, and only now did he realize that he could not beat these nobles at all.

As for maintaining the fiefdom and salary and official positions for ten years, even if he is willing, he will not be able to do so. It is just right for him to follow the flow of the situation.

As for betraying the alliance, he wanted Mozhe to help. In his opinion, he might not be qualified to betray the alliance within ten years.

What the Sichenghuang team thinks is almost the same.

Now his private land and fiefdom have the advantage. After ten years of accumulation, even if his advantage does not increase, it will not weaken.

Moreover, his goal was never to rebel now, but to use reinforcements from the Three Jin Dynasties to ask Mr. Song for the right to punish the government affairs according to what his father Yue Ling wanted.

As for the other six ministers, they also understand that this opportunity will never come again. Now that they have failed, the best result is not to be dealt with.

The Mohist proposed to stop the army, and hoped that all three parties would accept it. This condition seemed favorable.

As for the final payment for burial, it is all a trivial matter, a trivial matter that can be ignored.

But the nobles present never thought how could there be conditions that would be beneficial to all three parties?

Seeing that everyone had no objection, he said, "The Mo family urged this oath to benefit the world. I don't know what you mean?"

After everyone nodded, Shi took out another piece of paper, but the paper was much larger than the one just now, and it was densely filled with words.

Shi Nian said: "Since I said that the suspension of the army was for the people of Shangqiu, and the people of the country have the power to interfere in politics and have the intention to make profits."

"The Mo just urged the three parties to stop the troops, and there was no other intention."

"But the public opinion cannot be violated. In the past, Jie of Xia and Ri died together. Marquis of Wei went abroad and Ju Zi was expelled, which all violated the public opinion."

"Now, the people of Shangqiu have made the following requests for their own benefit. Since the emperor has agreed, he still does not know what the details are. Please listen."

Many people are illiterate, so it is even more impossible to list one, two, three, four, and five. Some things are just propaganda and guidance of the Mohist school.

After hearing this, everyone present realized that they were afraid that today's matter was not that simple, and it was impossible for three parties to benefit.

Shi cleared his throat and said, "When discussing with the people of Shangqiu, the entrusted the man to sort it out, and the following requirements are made."

"First, the emperor is not allowed to start a war without permission. The people of Shangqiu refused to submit to the unjust war of expeditions, but they must do their best to the war of guards."

"Second, township schools, township theaters, and moths are sacrificed halls, and market and restaurants that discuss politics shall not be closed and destroyed."

"Third, the military taxes of the public land in Shangqiu are distributed to private acres and fixed taxes. The monarch is not allowed to increase taxes at will."

"Fourth, all state-owned governments require monarchs, ministers, and people to discuss. The government is divided into upper and lower levels."

"The six ministers in the gentleman's courtyard are all responsible. Four officials in the world, spring, summer, autumn and winter are selected. The emperor can choose six of them, and they cannot be responsible unless they are scholars or doctors."

"The common people's home is divided into 30,000 households in Shangqiu City and neighborhoods, and 60 people are expected to be selected in the countryside."

"Any matters such as starting a war, increasing taxes, levying, labor, servitude, law enforcement, and fiefs shall be discussed by the Inquiry Council."

"The specific details will be discussed with the post-war period. All major events must be consensually agreed between the gentleman's courtyard and the common people's courtyard before they can be implemented."

"Fifth, no matter what urgent matters, it will be held once every year during the spring festival. The common people's house will be selected once every three years, and the salary will be the same as that of the superiors."
