Chapter 541 Farewell
The way of heaven is unpredictable, and Yunyao knew that she would have another disciple. Seeing that the way of heaven agreed, she would take over Xunzi, a white-haired disciple without fear of being a tiger. She said, "Since you are willing to become a disciple, then you and I will treat each other with the etiquette of a master and disciple from now on."
The students around were stunned. The Jixia Academy sacrificial wine sacrificially went to worship a young man who had no idea of his origin as his teacher? Then wouldn't these students be embarrassed? The reason why most of them came to worship Xunzi as their teacher was because they value Xunzi's virtue and respect, and because they valued his identity.
If Xunzi's behavior is spread now, then anyone can laugh at them. After all, Xunzi's worship of a young man as his teacher means that Xunzi's knowledge has not yet reached his home, and Xunzi is nothing more than that. Then Xunzi's disciples must be in a mess. How can they recommend themselves and find employment in the future?
Of course, the students also admitted that this young man's talent is indeed extraordinary and his views are indeed unconventional, but Xunzi had no need to demote himself.
It is necessary because Xunzi is a person who pursues knowledge over status. In the past, he was not his twelve sons Dugu Qiubai, but now he finally meets an existence above him, so he naturally has to study humbly.
Li Si thought he should leave Jixia Academy quickly and go to Qin State as soon as possible. He could go further after changing the platform earlier. Li Si worked as a granary administrator in his hometown. His life was also very good, but suddenly one day when he was going to the toilet, he found a few mice eating dirty things in the toilet, which hit his little heart. He thought that the mice in the toilet could only eat this, but the mice in the granary ate food. Then he caught mice from two places and exchanged them. He found that if the mice in the granary were locked in the toilet, they could only eat dirty things. The teacher in the toilet went to eat food like a granary.
So Li Si realized the importance of the platform. His hometown was just a small place, just a toilet. He had no development in a small place. He had to go to the granary and pursue his own fame and fortune.
So he first came to Jixia Academy to study gilding, and then he planned a blueprint for himself and went to Qin, because Qin was the place with the most opportunities among the seven countries. When he arrived in Qin, Li Si had long planned that he would surrender to the most powerful Lu Buwei of Qin, and then use Lu Buwei as a springboard to recommend himself to the King of Qin.
I have to say that Li Si is definitely a smart person. He knows what he wants, so he planned a clear road to heaven for himself. He is absolutely confident. As long as he follows this path, even if he cannot successfully become a marquis and a prime minister, it will definitely not be too bad.
During this period, Li Si had learned a lot of things and read a lot of books by making friends with Han Fei, a Korean aristocrat. Li Si originally thought that he was about to set off, and now Xunzi's apprenticeship has accelerated his actions.
So compared to the expressions of other students who were lost, Li Si was very calm. After all, he knew that when he went to Qin, he mainly looked at his own abilities, not just his academic qualifications. The academic qualifications of Jixia Academy may be able to help, but it cannot determine everything. Li Si believed that he had the ability to ascend to heaven.
Han Fei was even more calm because he was also very concerned about knowledge. If he could improve his knowledge, he would be willing to continue learning.
When Xunzi heard that Yunyao was willing to accept him as his disciple, he immediately saluted and saw Yunyao's true appearance after the ceremony. He saw that there was no young man in front of him, which was clearly a beautiful fairy with a divine light shining behind his head. The divine light caught his eyes, Xunzi immediately knew that Yunyao was a god in the heavenly court, and even knew that Yunyao was under Guanzi, Confucius, and Mozi, and was even supported by Zhuangzi on demand and Mencius. The academic qualifications could scare the creatures in the Three Realms to death.
She is the only female disciple under Confucius' name. Xunzi knew that he was right, and he found that other people except him did not see Yun Yao's positive appearance. He knew that this must be a magical power.
Since he has become a disciple, Yunyao will stay in Jixia Academy for a few days to attend classes. Although Yunyao speaks very well, some students have said their leave one after another because they come to the Academy not for learning, but for fame and fortune. Now Xunzi is a young man without fame as his master. It is very unpleasant to spread it and is easy to be attacked by those who are interested. Then their continued staying is harmful to their pursuit of fame and fortune, so it is better to run away directly.
Li Si also said goodbye to Xunzi and went to Qin State with Han Fei's visit. Han Fei was very envious because he was talented and wanted to show his strengths, but there was no way to do it in Korea. Looking at the world, only Qin State can do it.
"You will definitely become famous when you go here. I will wait for your good news in South Korea." Han Fei said as he took out a farewell gift and handed it to Li Si: "This is what the teacher knows you are leaving, so he gave it to you specially. It contains some dry food and travel expenses."
Li Si didn't expect Xunzi to be so considerate. He had to admit that Xunzi was indeed a straightforward and simple old man, so he took the box without hesitation and said, "If you go back and greet me on your behalf, I will take the lead."
Han Fei looked at Li Si's car leaving enviously, thinking to himself what should he do? Should he continue to stay or return to South Korea? Han Fei was very helpless because he knew that his knowledge could not be played out in Qi and South Korea. After all, he was not a tyrant and could not sow discord among various countries.
Perhaps writing a book is his only choice. Han Fei knew that his identity as a Korean aristocrat had become an obstacle to limiting his talent and he could not choose his way out as freely as Li Si.
Since he had no choice but to do so, Han Fei could only do whatever he wanted.
Any outstanding students who leave can get a box with travel expenses and dry food. The dry food is Yunyao's characteristics and tastes very good. The talisman ash can be positioned. When the time comes, the positioning will be activated, and they can be transported to the school in Zhucheng for the imperial examination preparations.
Xunzi already knew why Yunyao came to Jixia Academy. One purpose was to make "Confucianism great again" fight against the Western religion that was about to be introduced to the Central Plains. One purpose was to select mortals who participated in the imperial examination and give them the opportunity to go to heaven.
"The way of selecting talents in the Heavenly Court is really weird, and it still needs to be evaluated." Xunzi didn't understand, because he didn't know that there were many volumes in the Three Realms. Although the Warring States Period also included, the knowledge monopoly was not broken and was monopolized by the nobles, so the aristocrats who had the opportunity to study would not be too bad. As for the aristocrats who did not have the opportunity to go to school, they were probably difficult to be considered aristocrats anymore.
However, the knowledge of the Three Realms has long been completely broken by the fact that the Tongtian Sect Master had a sect and was not apart from the different teachings. With Zhu Cheng's efforts, there are not too many creatures in the Three Realms who know the text and snippets. The number of heavenly officials is a minority, and the number of people who are motivated is the majority, so it is impossible to select talents without taking the exam.
After Xunzi knew about this situation, he said again: "There are so many things. There are actually hundreds of millions of creatures fighting for the position of heavenly officials, and only ten people have been taken in a hundred years. What a fierce confrontation, wouldn't it show all the evils of creatures?"
"This is called competition, it has both benign and viciousness. Although the competition between heavenly officials is very fierce, it is just a choice for immortals, not the only choice. So even if you can't become a heavenly official, you can continue to cultivate immortals." Yun Yao said: "So we cannot always stare at human nature. The important thing is the rules. I think you agree with this point."
