Zhuang Zhou was complaining, but even if he complained, he still looked like a wise man. His wife was fascinated by the sight. Yao Zhuang liked Zhuang's appearance of sparks of wisdom. Although he couldn't understand, his husband was really shining at this time.

Yun Yao thought that Zhuang Zhou had such a profound understanding after a round of traveling around. Obviously, he encountered something. So he asked Qingji and Yaoli and realized that Zhuang Zhou had a fulfilling day today. He went to the school during the day and went to Nulu at night. He really did not miss both learning and entertainment.

Of course, Yun Yao did not expect that his deeds were not forgotten and he was taken out to educate others. He was actually regarded as a righteous man who saved people from danger. He felt very good to be admired, and he was considered to be a contributing to the history textbook.

"No wonder I felt this feeling as soon as I came back. It turned out that I saw the gap between the rich and the poor." Yunyao also knew that Linzi had a big problem. In fact, not only did she know, but King Wei of Qi also knew, otherwise there would be no story of "Zou Ji ridicule the King of Qi to accept advice". It was because of knowing that the road to speak opens up and the rule of officials was rectified.

However, the King of Qi did not have the determination to reform fundamentally. After all, the geographical conditions were too good, and he could not finish fishing, hunting and sea salt resources. Moreover, because Guan Zhong laid the foundation for Qi early on, the strength of Qi should not be underestimated among the seven countries. He had long since made up his neighbor, Lu, and could eat it in one bite as long as he was willing.

Even if the Qin and Chu are stronger in the future, either Qin or Chu, Qi is still the target that everyone wants to win over, and it is also the last country to be destroyed in the seven heroes of the Warring States Period.

It’s not that the Qi State has a strong system and a strong army, but it’s because of its good geographical advantages and a strong foundation. With the geographical advantages and Guan Zhong’s official mountains and seas, the conflict between the rich and the poor in Qi State will not shake its foundation even if it is too big.

"If you go to the palace and tell the King of Qi, you will definitely get a generous reward." Yunyao said to Zhuang Zhou who was having a meal.

Zhuang Zhou didn't go: "Forget it, even if it was told to the King of Qi, what could he change? He was just punishing a few traitors, but he could not change the national atmosphere. Gambling in Linzi has become a trend, and no one can change it."

"Okay, let's change the topic. Since you don't want to go to Jixia Academy, then I will introduce you to Qimo General Hall, find a job, and communicate with Mozhe." Yunyao said.

"The Mohist school only knows how to create institutions, what is there to learn?" Zhuang Zhou still believes that institutions make people lazy and make people feel stupid. He did not realize that if he finished one task with the institutions, there was another task, and the work would never be completed, so the institutions only helped people speed up efficiency, rather than created a sense of motivation.

"The opposition is invalid, that's the decision. You two look at him. If he doesn't want to go, just escort him." Yunyao said that he wanted to let Zhuang Zhou know about the working people and create more works for the working people.

Zhuangzi's works are full of imagination, but most of them talk about how to become a supreme person, a god, and a saint. They believe that these people have nothing to rely on.

The ultimate thought of Zhuangzi is that the supreme man has no self, the gods and man have no merits, and the sage has no name. This is the ultimate thought of Zhuangzi. Simply put, it is to reach an extreme state, and the existence of this state will not rely on any external objects, and even one cannot rely on itself.

Most people have the saying that it is better to seek oneself than to seek God, and it is better to seek oneself than to seek others. When they come to Zhuangzi, they do not seek God, nor do they seek others, nor do they seek things, or themselves. This state is the supreme freedom.

As for how to reach this state, Zhuangzi didn't say it, probably he didn't know it. If he had to know it, he would become a saint. He just said that people who had something to rely on would not get free, such as the big roc, which soared up to 90,000 miles, but it needed wind. Without wind, the big roc could not fly. For example, when traveling, you need to prepare food, and you can walk as much as you want. If you prepare food for fifteen days, you can only walk fifteen days, so naturally you can't get farther away.

From this we deduce that as long as people need the help of external objects, the realm they reach is limited.

Therefore, if you want to be free, you must not ask for gods or people, but you should not even ask for yourself. This state will be profound and unfathomable. As for how high it is, Zhuangzi said he is a saint.

Simply put, Zhuangzi believes that the highest level is that there is no material exchange with the environment, which is too difficult. People are born in society and live in the environment, and they must inevitably exchange material with everything around them. People have already started exchanging material when they breathe the first breath of air. They can't say that they can hold their breath, and that they can't become saints, and they will only become dead. According to Zhuangzi's theory, humans have limits, unless humans can stop exchanging material, but unfortunately they didn't say how to stop.

However, the realm proposed by Zhuangzi is indeed a very clear direction. Reducing material exchange can indeed assist immortals in cultivating immortals. Mortals cannot stop material exchange, but immortals can stop.

Zhuangzi is the first person in the Three Realms to come up with this idea.

In this way, Yun Yao must have no chance with Xiaoyao, because her material exchange with the Three Realms is constantly expanding, and there is no sign of decrease, and it is obviously contrary to Zhuangzi's thoughts.

The next day, Zhuangzi went to Qimo General Assembly to participate in labor, so let’s not mention it for now.

Yun Yao also needs to find a way to find a heavenly official who can resist the Western sect. First, go around and observe, and maybe you can find a suitable candidate with a firm will.

"Let's go." Yunyao turned around and changed into a set of men's clothing. Because he wanted to go to and from places like gambling shops, it was more convenient to wear men's clothing.

"Let's go together too." Simei said that she could not make Yunyao happy alone. They also changed into men's clothes and pasted talisman paper, so that they could be foolproof.

In the end, Yaozhuang was left alone at home to meditate. There was no way for her to be a beginner. She needed to concentrate on her during this period.

Five young and handsome young men came to the bustling streets and looked around and heard voices discussing state affairs everywhere. Obviously, after opening up the road to speak, the people of Qi were excited to talk about state affairs. After all, if it was heard in the ears of the King of Qi, they would be rewarded.

"The King of Qi is smart and knows how to mobilize the masses." Yunyao said clearly that it was to open up the road of speech, but in fact it was to use the power of the people to deal with the officials.

It will definitely not be worth the loss to rely solely on the power of the King of Qi to fight against the doctor. Even if you win, you will lose your own strength. Then other doctors will become bigger again. However, if you introduce the people, you can suppress the doctor while maintaining your own strength. To put it very well, it is to point out the mistakes of the King of Qi, but will the King of Qi correct it after pointing out the mistakes? Will he abdicate? No, pointing out the mistakes of the King of Qi is not important at all. What is important is to point out the mistakes of the doctor. As long as the people say the mistakes of the doctor, the King of Qi can justify the doctor without damaging his own interests.

This is what is called introducing external forces in struggle, not just the King of Qi plays like this in China. Almost all nobles and doctors in the Warring States Period introduced external forces, using knives to kill people, and causing trouble to the east.

For example, once, Chu promised to give Qi five hundred miles, but as soon as the envoy who offered the land left, the King of Chu went to Qin to invite reinforcements. Qin certainly did not want Qi to become bigger, so he came over to help Chu defend. In this way, Chu saved the land without spending a single soldier, and at the same time resisted Qi's anger.

The State of Chu is in the south, the State of Zhao is in the north, Han and Wei are in the middle, Qin is in the west, Qi is in the east, and Yan is the most remote in the northeast.

The relationship between the seven countries was complicated, and Han and Wei were the most under pressure, and they were the first to reform. Wei State first reformed, and it was very successful. The Qin State fought to run away with its head and faced off. So Qin State also wanted to reform, which led to Wei Yang entering Qin.

South Korea and Chu also made reforms, but they were both failed and basically did not shake the status of the hereditary aristocrats.
