In the 134th to 135th year of King Zhao of Qin, winter.

There is no heavy snow, and the bright sun.

In Daliang, the capital of Wei State, a fire from the underworld rose. At Mengchangjun's mansion, the fire from the underworld burned for three days.

"The Wei Affairs of the Eastern Zhou Countries"

............

Outside the academy, in the inn where the candidates lived, Yu Shuang raised her head and felt the appearance of the pylorus when the capital of Wei was invaded by the fire of the underworld.

Like him, there are not many disciples walking in the sun.

After all, there are only thirty-three people in the pylorus.

Mengchangjun gave up his identity as a living person and returned to the embrace of the underworld. However, he has no shortage of fame and fortune in his life, and he has not been in vain to go to this world.

Yu Shuang grinned and picked up her pen to write down the last word of this year's Jixia exam paper.

"Danger."

He rolled up the file, then leaned down and fell asleep.

............

In the lecture hall, scholars and ministers gathered again, and many people were unkempt and seemed to be sleeping all night. They looked a little weak and their clothes were messy, causing them to scratch.

But these people have one thing in common, that is, each of them holds a bundle of files in their hands.

However, today's lectures are still at the end of Mao and the beginning of Chen, and the Taixue master has not arrived in accordance with the regulations of the Academy.

So someone started to take a nap.

At this time, in the Lin Palace of Youshan, Cheng Zhiyuan didn't know why Xunzi summoned him here, but when he saw Xunzi, he bowed to him, Xunzi took out two volumes of the files.

That is the file of Li Si and Han Fei.

Xunzi said: "You can read these two volumes of paper first and then give me a reply."

Cheng Zhiyuan didn't read Li Si's volume, but just read Han Fei's volume.

"What does the teacher mean?"

Cheng Zhiyuan placed the two volumes of the files in front of his left and right hands respectively.

Xunzi said: "Which volume is the upper part and which volume is the lower part?"

Cheng Zhiyuan took a look again, as if he was considering it.

Then he pointed to Han Fei's volume.

“Where is the upper part?”

Xunzi asked, Cheng Zhiyuan said: "I have already read the second volume. The master of the volume, Li Si, and Senior Brother Feng Ye, had seen me in the lecture hall before. At that time, I talked to him about the principle of cooking cloth. I dare to ask the teacher, the master of the first volume.

Who is it?"

Xunzi said: "Han Fei."

Cheng Zhiyuan seemed to have no fluctuations in his heart, but in fact he sighed deeply.

"Rampant pen."

Xunzi said: "If you ask you to recommend someone, do you want to recommend the first volume?"

Cheng Zhiyuan said: "Who are you recommending it?"

Xunzi smiled and said, "I recommend it to me."

Cheng Zhiyuan said: "That's better to have both. Isn't that what the teacher thinks?"

Xunzi said: "How do you know my mind?"

Cheng Zhiyuan said: "If the teacher has made a decision, he will not ask the difference between the upper and lower levels. Therefore, the answers written by the two volumes are different, and the dilemma is different. Their tracing is also the strengths of the ruler and the weaknesses of the inch.

It cannot be discussed in general."

"You can't have both fish and bear's paw?"

Cheng Zhiyuan asked back and said, "Will you have to hunt a bear on his claws and kill the bear at this time? The teacher is a scholar of Xun, so why should you follow the principles of Meng?"

Xunzi laughed: "Okay, okay, let's talk about it, the difference between the two volumes."

Cheng Zhiyuan said: "To take Tao as permanence and Dharma as the basis, right and Han Fei."

He paused and changed his mind: "The Lord is Li Si."

He spoke not about the file level, but turned his head to point to the person.

Xunzi asked: "Why is the prime minister?"

Cheng Zhiyuan replied: "The king means that the sky collapses, and the king is the earth. The zither and zither are harmonious, the bells and drums produce rituals and music. The mountains meet flowing water, the wind and rain follow each other, and the dragon and tiger meet."

Xunzi was shocked.

"But with such a high evaluation, why is the next volume?"

Cheng Zhiyuan said: "The rat lives in his place, and people choose places. This is his ambition to the teacher in Li Si's file, but I still want to give him eight words."

"The sheep lost on the wrong path, the roots are the same as the last ones."

What Cheng Zhiyuan thought at this time was that Li Si was later bewitched by Zhao Gao and made a huge mistake. He was even killed by nine clans. This is because he met someone wrong and lost his sheep on the wrong path.

Li Si is the lost lamb. If someone pulls it, he will do great things. If there is no wise ruler, he will be afraid of great harm.

After Xunzi finished listening, he immediately understood the meaning.

He frowned and suddenly said to Cheng Zhiyuan: "So, if you recommend it to me, will it be Li Si?"

"But I still wonder. Since you say he is a sheep on the wrong path, why do you still recommend him?"

Cheng Zhiyuan said: "Talents are talents. The teacher asked me to recommend me. Li Si is a pillar of the country, and Han Fei is a talent for changing the world, so both of them have to accept it. This is the truth. After all, the world changes, and I am the same.

What does it matter if an immortal?"

Cheng Zhiyuan was telling the truth. Since he was here and was out of the matter, Xunzi asked him which one was better, and he told the truth that this had nothing to do with him anyway. If Qin wanted to unify the world, he would unify the world. Cheng Zhiyuan did not object.

However, Han Feizi can use it. Of course, this use is not used as a pawn. Sometimes Cheng Zhiyuan also wonders, if Qin Shihuang did not kill Han Feizi, would the later Qin Dynasty be completely different?

The answer should be inevitable.

Han Feizi's "If you don't expect to practice ancient times, you will be able to do it"; "If the world is different, things will be different, and if things are different, things will be changed" can be said to be absolutely in line with the law in people's minds.

Dharma is passed down from the world, just like a saint. Are saints four hundred years ago still saints four hundred years later? Can the rules four hundred years ago still be used four hundred years later?

Most of them can, but some of them cannot. But the day when the world changes...

It was like the world after the Industrial Revolution... a strong country was like a tiger or wolf, and a weak country was like a cattle or sheep, which was so similar to the countries of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

Reform is not about changing for a day or for a moment, but about changing with the world.

Although what I want is to settle down in this world, not seeking to write books and biography, but seeking to be free and easy.

Of course, there is one more thing.

Find Xu Wugui and kill him with a sword!

Xunzi nodded. Long Su strongly recommended Han Fei and presented it to him, but Cheng Zhiyuan first recommended Li Si, and then said that Han Fei's talent was far above Li Si, but he wanted to accept both of them.

He probably understood what Cheng Zhiyuan meant.

Li Si's way is loved by the world, and Han Fei's way is feared by the world.

The kings in the world like Li Si's way and respect Han Fei's way, but they are afraid that this way will fall into the hands of others.

Cheng Zhiyuan bid farewell to Xunzi. At this time, it was almost time to the end of Mao and the beginning of Chen. He rode on Hu Leibao and went to the lecture hall. He arrived at the East Courtyard about three minutes later. As soon as he entered, countless scholars and ministers were alarmed around him, and a loud bang.

Come around!

"Please ask the Imperial Academy to do subjective volume!"

These unkempt and dirty people are in high spirits, and each of them has great confidence in their answers!

The answers in the files were all sorts of answers that were answered overnight, with few similarities. Cheng Zhiyuan took a few volumes to read, and then shook his head.

Many people with full confidence were hit at this time, and many people were depressed, and some people with self-confidence exploded began to feel a little nervous.

But facts show that many things are not what people think, and sometimes they still need to have some confidence in themselves.

Someone passed one after another, and their files were placed on the desk. Those unsuccessful scholars and ministers showed envy, and they also felt lament and distress in their hearts.

The King of Qi and the Queen of the King are still here as promised today.

"Can the Master of the Imperial Academy have a new style today?"

Fazhang asked with a smile. Cheng Zhiyuan looked at many disciples who were still thinking hard, shook his head, and then nodded.

"some."

There were only a few days of lectures, and many people were eliminated on the first day. The remaining people can be said to be agile people. Cheng Zhiyuan was talking about "Lianshan Yi" as promised, and of course he was still in the first "Dieshan Elephant".

”.

The virtual and real are real, the multiplication and the reduction, the division and the reunion are diffuse and the times are hidden.

After calculating for a long time, some people became bored. This is the second question listed by Cheng Zhiyuan today. Some people soon stood up and started to question after saluting.

"A real man may raise a sword of three feet in this chaotic time, and may gain unparalleled achievements. He may travel around the countries and throng the world with a three inch tongue! He may establish himself with etiquette and morality, or establish his intention with law, or use ink, or use agriculture.

Sang... However, although the "Lianshan" taught by the Emperor Taixue is a rare book, what is the function of it?"

The young man bowed: "I have a shallow understanding, but I really don't know where the "Lianshan" is easy to use!"

As soon as this said, many people were stunned. The day before yesterday and now, studying and learning is like being possessed by a demon. I just feel that Lianshan is a rare magical scripture in the world, but I have never thought about it carefully. It is so complicated.
Chapter completed!
