Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1501 Concealment
  Fusu didn't know Xunzi's inner thoughts. After the moment of astonishment, he immediately showed a knowing smile:
  "This is...what a coincidence."

Li Si on the side was stunned, "Young master, what you said is..."

Fusu didn't specifically answer Li Si. Anyway, Li Si would naturally understand after he finished speaking:

"Master Xun, last time I was rescued outside the city by your chivalry, I didn't even have time to thank you. Fusu always kept it in mind!"

As soon as Fusu said these words, Li Si's eyelids suddenly trembled.

The person who happened to save Fusu during the last attack was Xunzi! ?

There is also this kind of coincidence... Why did Xunzi, who always lived in seclusion, leave the city?
  Li Si was in a daze. Firstly, he didn't quite understand how such a coincidence happened. Secondly, he felt that he was unlucky for no apparent reason - this was not good news for him.

A trace of doubt secretly flashed in Xunzi's eyes. He did not expect that Fusu would take the initiative to hide Ziming's existence.

why?

Fusu took the initiative to conceal Zi Ming, which just showed that he knew Zi Ming's special status, so he did not want to expose Zi Ming's existence in public.

But the Mohist family has been beaten into rebels. Why does Fusu favor Ziming, who has a close relationship with the Mohist family?
  Or is he not favoring Ziming, but favoring Confucianism?
  After all, he is currently the most prestigious Confucian scholar. If he gets involved with the rebels, it will undoubtedly cause huge damage to the prestige of Xiaoshengxian Village.

Of course, in fact, Fusu was simply protecting Tianming.

Hmm... Strictly speaking, it's not biased. Fusu just omitted some content - he said that Xunzi saved him, but he didn't say that it was only Xunzi.

There was another person present at that time, but now that he didn't see that person, couldn't he just skip it and not mention it?
  Fusu would definitely not be able to explain Xunzi's confusion.

Now is not a good time to think about things. Xunzi can only press down and not think about it for the time being, and then... quickly patch it:

"Young master, there is no need to worry about it. Besides, I don't know martial arts. The ones who really contributed that day were the disciples of the Little Saint Xianzhuang who were following me. I really don't dare to take credit."

This is the patch Xunzi wants to make. He doesn't want to reveal Tianming's existence, but there must be a third person present at the time.

Because to the vast majority of people present, he, Xunzi, was a pure disciple of the Confucian literary school and did not understand martial arts at all.

If you don’t know martial arts, how can you save people?

Fortunately, this patch is easy to apply. Li Daitao can solve the problem and continue to conceal Tianming's existence.

Of course, this replacement must be arranged well, and if he is found later, his secret cannot be exposed.

But this is easy to handle.

As long as Xunzi says this, someone will naturally take care of it.

Fu Nian on the side is not a fool. He has no idea whether the students of Xiaoshengxian Manor have been taken out by Xunzi recently or whether he has saved anyone - this Confucian disciple does not exist at all, and his uncle must be talking nonsense.

What he wants to do is definitely not to expose the lie, but to confirm the matter.

This step is also simple, he only needs to take the time to give instructions secretly and it can be done.

Depending on the situation, the two parties involved, my uncle and the young master Fusu, have secretly reached a tacit understanding. Since they have formed a partnership, it will be easy to deceive others.

Just find a skilled disciple and that's it.

Although Confucianism emphasizes that people should be honest, Confucius has never been a pedantic person, and he has never said that Confucian disciples are not allowed to lie.

Specific situations still need to be dealt with on a case-by-case basis.

Of course, Fu Nian is a little pedantic, but he has always been strict with himself and lenient with others. If his uncle tried to deceive others, he had no choice but to cooperate.

And he's not so pedantic that he'll blow himself up when it's obvious something is wrong.

Fusu's eyes fluctuated when he heard this, and then he followed Xunzi's words with a smile:
  "Yes, there is also the Confucian disciple."

"I wonder where he is now?" Xunzi did not answer, but turned to look at Fu Nian.

Fu Nian understood immediately and took the initiative to interject, "Oh, the disciples are all in the villa now. If His Highness needs it, I will send someone to call him right away."

Fusu raised his hand and waved, "Oh, that's not necessary."

"Just know that he is also a Confucian disciple and a member of the Little Saint Xian Village."

Li Si interrupted at this time, "I didn't expect that the person who saved His Highness the Young Master from the bandits that day was actually the teacher."

"What a coincidence!" His eyes wandered back and forth between Xunzi and Fusu, and he said with a smile.

Li Si noticed that the conversation between Fusu and Xunzi was a bit unnatural, and there was a high probability that there was some hidden secret in it.

But the two people involved made it clear that they didn't intend to talk, and their identities were so special. He couldn't afford to offend either of them, so he could only follow his authority and pretend that he didn't know anything.

Zhao Gao simply didn't say a word, just watched everything secretly with his eyes.

Fusu didn't care whether others noticed something was wrong, he raised his hand and ordered with a natural look:
  "Pass on my order, Xiaoshengxianzhuang has done a great job in rescuing the driver, and will be handed over to the Secretary for reward according to the laws of Daqin."

"Wei Chen understands." Li Si clasped his hands and accepted the order.

Fu Nian and others saluted and thanked them in unison.

After giving the instructions, Fusu didn't mention the matter any more and just dismissed the matter as it related to his life.

"Master Li, has the distinguished guest I invited arrived yet?" Fusu then asked Li Si.

Upon hearing this, Li Si immediately replied, "Wei Chen hasn't received any news yet."

"But... that distinguished guest has always been elusive, but since he agreed, he should arrive on time."

These words made Fu Nian murmur in his heart.

What would be the identity of the distinguished guests that Fusu personally invited as a prince?
  Moreover, that person actually dared to be so negligent in response to Young Master's request, and Young Master Fusu also showed no concern... I'm afraid his background is not simple.

This is undoubtedly bad news for Little Shengxian Village - all they need today is mediocrity.

Zhang Liang on the side looked calm.

He already knew who this special guest was.

But...for him, this distinguished guest is also a difficult person to deal with.

The main reason is that he knows nothing about this person except his name, and has no way of starting.

The psychological activities of others had nothing to do with Fusu. After he received the answer, he calmly ordered, "In that case, let's go to the villa first."

Fu Nian gathered his thoughts when he heard the words, stepped aside to let the guests in, and at the same time shouted in a deep voice:

"present!"

The thirty-six Confucian disciples who had been waiting for a long time immediately danced upon hearing the sound, and performed neatly and neatly according to standard movements.

Fusu walked alone among the many dancers, climbed the steps, and walked towards the gate of the Little Sage Village.

Among all the visitors, he was the only one qualified to enjoy this eight-legged dance with six rows and six columns, so he was naturally walking alone.

Li Si and the others, at most, can be regarded as doctors and scholars, but they are not worthy of six thousand.

Confucianism has always been meticulous in etiquette.
