"Oh, old man Junren, this Sanghai, this little Shengxian Manor is becoming more and more interesting." Xiao Meng was slightly surprised when she heard Junren.

Fu Nian bowed quickly.

"Junior Sister Xiaomeng, please come in." Xun Kuang gestured with his hand.

"No need. I only came here to ask one question, and you know what it is. Tell me the answer." Xiao Meng said, "Since old man Jun Ren has been here, I think you should make a decision."

"Of course, this question is not only asked by me, but also by the entire Tianzong."

"Junior Sister Xiaomeng is known to be the most talented person so far, and she is also the youngest leader of Tianzong. Naturally, she can represent the entire Tianzong." Xun Kuang said.

"So Xun Kuang dared not hide anything."

"There really is no answer at this point."

"But rest assured, Xun Kuang will give Tianzong a satisfactory answer."

"How about three days later?"

"Okay, then wait for three days." Xiao Meng nodded and left.

"Fu Nian, call Yan Lu and Zifang here. Confucianism is now facing a matter of life and death. You should know that." After Xiao Meng left, Xunzi said to Fu Nian.

"Uncle Master, I understand..."

Inside the guest hall of Xiaoshengxian Manor, Xiaomeng told the result of the meeting with Xun Kuang.

"Three days later? That means even if Jun Ren, one of the three sages, shows up, Master Xun still doesn't have his answer." Ying Xiao whispered.

"Uncle Wang, maybe he is waiting for bargaining chips." Fusu suddenly said, "Fusu is a Confucianist, and I am confident that he has some understanding of Confucianism. No matter how deep his Confucianism is, it is inevitable that he has a little scholarly air."

"If you have the spirit of a scholar, you will have the original heart of a scholar."

"And this heart is the reason why Uncle Wang asked me to come here. Uncle Wang, it's time."

"Fusu, not bad, you have made great progress, now it's up to you." Looking at Fusu at this moment, Ying Xiao was very pleased and said, "But don't worry, as the saying goes, if you know yourself and your enemy, you will never be in danger in a hundred battles. What bargaining chips does the Taoist clan have?"

"Xiao Meng..." Then, Ying Xiao's gaze fell on Xiao Meng.

"The only thing I can think of is the appointment with the Taoist master." Xiao Meng said.

"What is the Taoist and Confucian master agreement?" Ying Xiao asked.

"There is only one line of words on a book, written by old Confucius himself: Confucius asked Li Er about the teachings three times. Since it happened three times, they were confirmed to be master and disciple!" Xiao Meng said.

"I understand. If this book is published to the world, it will tell everyone in the world that Confucianism is inherited from Taoism, so Taoism will always be superior to Confucianism." Ying Xiao whispered.

"And Confucianism has always emphasized respecting teachers, so no matter what happens in the future, Confucianism can only be a disciple of Taoism."

"It seems that this volume of Taoist and Confucian Teachers' Agreement is very important." Fusu couldn't help but sigh.

"Unfortunately, this thing is in the hands of the Human Sect. Since old man Qi Shifei has come here in person, he must have brought this thing with him. Maybe it is already in Xun Kuang's hands." Xiao Meng said.

"In that case, it's time for me to visit Master Xun Kuang," said Fusu.

After Fusu left, Xiaomeng looked at Ying Xiao and said, "King Wu, I have to say that calling Fusu here was indeed a brilliant move. You are really good."

"Am I still just good?" Ying Xiao said with a smile, "I should say I am excellent, excellent enough to make real fairies drool."

Xiao Meng no longer paid attention to Ying Xiao and left the guest hall.

"I am good, but you are very charming...and it is a wild charm." Looking at Xiao Meng's back, Ying Xiao smiled in his heart.

......

In the wooden house, Fu Nian, Yan Lu and Zi Fang have all arrived.

Xun Kuang didn't waste any words and asked directly, "Tell me, where do you think the future of Confucianism lies?"

"Uncle Master, you know my philosophy. I believe that being loyal to the Qin Dynasty is the future path for our Confucianism." Fu Nian said, "Because only when the world is unified can we truly eliminate the chaos among the countries."

"Senior Brother is right." Yan Lu nodded.

Zhang Liang also spoke up, "In the past, Zifang had doubts about the Qin State, but after meeting King Wu Yingxiao and Prince Fusu, Zifang believes that the Qin State will eventually be stable."

"King Wu Ying Xiao will become the first person after the First Emperor. He and the First Emperor will be the two strongest pillars of the Qin Dynasty."

"A pillar that supports the sky will not be stable."

"Two will make it very stable."

"And Prince Fusu is the third pillar of support in the process of growth. He will eventually grow up completely under the protection of the First Emperor Wu Wang Ying Xiao."

"So with three, it's completely stable."

"Moreover, Xiao He, who comes after Li Si, will be the second Shang Yang of the Qin Dynasty. If there is an opportunity, Zifang would like to join Xiao He and become one of the second Shang Yangs."

"I didn't expect that the three of you would have such surprisingly consistent ideas today. But, look at this." Xun Kuang said, taking out the Taoist and Confucian Master's Agreement.

After reading it, the three of them said in unison, "Is this the Taoist and Confucian agreement that Confucius spent his entire life trying to get back?"

"Yes, it is the agreement between the Taoists and Confucians." Xun Kuang said, "But it was not sent by the Heavenly Sect, but by the Human Sect. On one side is the wish of Confucius, and on the other side is the correct choice that Confucianism currently seems to have. Even I, an old man, cannot make a decision at the moment."

"Uncle-master, hasn't Grandmaster Junren been here before? He..." Fu Nian asked with a bow.

"Just one word, we decide for ourselves..." Xun Kuang said.

Then, the four of them fell silent.

Confucianism does emphasize loyalty before filial piety, but the current situation is that they are not truly loyal to the Qin Dynasty, so there is no such thing as loyalty before filial piety between the Qin Dynasty and Confucius.

"Master Xun, I am Fusu, and I have come to be your disciple." At this moment, Fusu's voice rang out from outside the door. "The country has just been settled, and there is a lot of work to be done. The people of the world have suffered from wars for a long time, and they need benevolent policies to save them. However, my father and uncle both have important tasks to do. Fusu does not want to see the people suffer, so I will take on this task myself."

"However, Fusu is a man of limited talent and learning, and to this day he does not know what a truly benevolent government is. I have come to ask Master Xun to teach me, and I hope that Master Xun will consider the kindness of the people of the world and become Fusu's teacher and teach him."

Chapter 107: Discussing Dao with Sword, Best of Three!

After Fusu finished speaking, he performed the ceremony of becoming a disciple and knelt down.

In the wooden house, Xun Kuang and the three heroes were silent in shock.

It was not easy for Fusu to become a disciple.

Because Fusu’s teacher was not just the teacher of the future emperor, but the first teacher of the emperor throughout history.

The First Emperor was the first emperor, but he did not have a real master, and there was no one who could be his teacher.

Therefore, Fusu’s teacher must be the first emperor’s teacher.

This is no longer just glory.

Zhang Liang sighed in his heart, "Your Highness, Young Master, you two really... gave Confucianism enough face. Regardless of whether it is sincere or not, the title of the first emperor's teacher is indeed a real title, a title that can allow Confucianism to achieve a glory that has never been achieved before."

"For this point, I admire Zifang. At this moment, Zifang may no longer have any reason to miss the former Korea."

"Zifang has always been looking forward to a new world and a new emperor. The reason why he was unwilling to help Qin was because Qin destroyed the former Han State, and a kind of hatred was at work."

"Now, with the young master's kneeling and the young master's invitation, Zifang seems to have seen a new world, an ideal world, and the hatred he once had has been let go."

"Brother Wei Zhuang, this is probably why you made this choice."

In silence, Zhang Liang spoke first, "Uncle Master, perhaps at this moment, we only have one choice. The Taoist-Confucian Master Agreement may make the various schools of thought believe that Taoism is the master of Confucianism."

"But the first emperor's teacher in history will make the world believe that our Confucianism is the best among all the schools of thought."

"And the emperor's teacher is also the true way for us Confucians to benefit the people of the world. What is benevolent government? Even if we have many Confucian disciples, we cannot apply it to the people of the world, but the emperor can."

"Uncle Master, at this moment, this volume of Taoist and Confucian Master's Agreement is extremely insignificant." Fu Nian and Yan Lu also said, "Even if Confucius was here, he should think about the people of the world. Isn't the Confucian thought for this moment, to implement benevolent policies for the world."

Xun Kuang continued to ponder for a long time before speaking, "Let's wait three days. We'll see after three days. You can leave now."

"Yes..."

Then, the three heroes left the wooden house.

Then he knelt before Fusu and said, "Sir, please stand up. I'm afraid that my uncle will ignore you today, so please don't blame me."

"Mr. Fu Nian, Mr. Yan Lu, Mr. Zifang, you can just leave. If you want to become my disciple, you must be sincere. I will kneel here for three hours." Fusu said.

Hearing Fusu's words, the three heroes nodded slightly, stood up and left.

Afterwards, the three heroes went to see Ying Xiao.

Zhang Liang spoke directly, "Your Highness, in my opinion, Master Uncle is already attracted to you, but Master Uncle is a bit arrogant..."

"Don't worry, Fusu is sincere in seeking advice." Ying Xiao said with a smile.

"It's just a Taoist and Confucian teacher agreement. Maybe Uncle Master still doesn't want to give up." Fu Nian said, "In Uncle Master's heart, becoming the young master's teacher in the most perfect way is probably what he wants most."

"In this case, I will lend a helping hand to Master Xun." Ying Xiao said, "Fusu can become his disciple and keep the Taoist and Confucian Master Agreement. At this time, if Master Xun proposes a sword fight between my Great Qin and the Renzong, the Renzong will definitely agree to it if they win two out of three games."

"In this way, the Taoist-Confucian agreement will still be in the hands of Confucianists."

"Your Highness..." Zifang and Yan Lu were both shocked and looked at Ying Xiao with admiration.

“But Your Highness, if we have to fight with swords, there will be winners and losers…” Fu Nian said worriedly.

"If I lose to the Renzong, it means that the Great Qin is not worthy of your Confucianism to assist." Ying Xiao said confidently, "Besides, I don't want the Taoist and Confucian Master's Agreement to return to the Renzong. That thing still has some qualifications to allow the Renzong to do whatever it wants in terms of people's hearts."

"Thank you, Your Highness..."

The three heroes expressed their gratitude in unison. At this moment, they had a true level of loyalty and respect for Ying Xiao in their hearts.

......

On the hill where Lord Chu Nan was, there were three chessboards. Lord Chu Nan, Master Li Shu, and Qi Shifei sat between the chessboards, playing chess against each other.

"Senior Nan Gong, we are old friends. We agreed to play chess in pairs, but the more I look at it, the more I feel something is not right. I am being attacked from two sides." After placing the pieces on the chessboards on both sides, the master of Li Shu laughed.

"But these two pieces are both great moves. How about adding a chessboard?" At this time, another voice sounded.

Immediately, Lord Chu Nan, Master Li Shu and Qi Shifei all stood up.

The three of them waited for several days, and the real owner finally came.

"My old friend Junren, you have kept us waiting..." Qi Shifei smiled and glanced at the Master of Lishu with a look as if he was sure of victory.

"I don't want to disturb your fun too early." Jun Ren walked over slowly, stroked his beard and smiled, and nodded to Qi Shifei and Li Shuzhu.

Then he also respectfully said to Lord Chu Nan, "Senior Lord Nan."

"It's good that you're here." Lord Chu Nan also smiled confidently.

But the next moment, the smiles of Chu Nangong and Qi Shifei came to an abrupt end.

Because Jun Ren directly took out the Taoist and Confucian Master's Agreement and handed it to Qi Shifei, saying with a smile, "My old friend Shifei, the item is returned to its original owner."

Lord Chu Nan and Qi Shifei immediately looked at each other, their expressions becoming a little gloomy.

The master of Lishu laughed in his heart, "Haha, two old guys, do you really think that you can rule Confucianism with a teacher-student agreement? Fusu is the emperor's teacher, and he is the first emperor's teacher in history. How can Confucianism refuse?"

"The teacher emperor has always been the dream of Confucianism."

The master of Lishu naturally knew Ying Xiao’s method.

Junren also said immediately, "Master to master, apprentice to apprentice, apprentice to apprentice to master, people in the world will have their own conclusions. Everything in the past is in the past, and everything in the present will also be judged by future generations."

"Jun Ren, why?" At this time, Lord Chu Nan couldn't help but asked directly.

"The Emperor's teacher governs the world with benevolence," Junren responded.

Hearing this, Duke Chu Nan and Qi Shifei looked at each other again and said in unison, "Fusu wants to be your disciple?"

Kimihito nodded slightly.

Qi Shifei's eyes were already filled with ferocity, "But this is a promise, an agreement!"

"The Tian Sect does not recognize it." Jun Ren said, "But the Confucianists also respect the Ren Sect. The Confucian disciple Xun Kuang proposed a sword fight, with the younger generation on both sides winning two out of three games."

"His Royal Highness King Wu has already agreed to this sword fight."

Hearing this, the Master of Lishu admired him again in his heart, "Your Highness King Wu is so brave and magnanimous. He is really a blessing for our Great Qin. From now on, Confucianism will no longer be controlled by the Taoist sect and will be loyal to the Great Qin with all our hearts."

"Confucianism has more than half of the people's hearts and minds. The foundation of the Qin Dynasty will be solid after it unifies the world."

Lord Chu Nan and Qi Shifei looked at each other again, and in the end they could only nod.

"Okay, then let's have a sword fight. Among the younger generations, two out of three will win. Nowadays, the world is also dominated by the younger generations, so they should be the ones to decide." Qi Shifei said.

"Okay, that's it." Junren said with a smile.
