Timeline: The 27th year of King Zhao of Chu (489 BC).

Confucius heard that Ye Gong had outstanding political achievements, so he deliberately exchanged strategies for governing the country with Cai and Ye Gong.

This is a historical matter.

Chen Yu was not sure about this matter at first, until the old servant Chen Zhong came to inform him.

When a great wise man from Lu State, Kong Zhongni, came to visit, suddenly realized this.

Mr. Ye is actually a person from the same era as Confucius!

Many modern people have heard of Confucius' traveling around the countries.

If the information is not checked, few people know the route of Confucius traveling around the countries.

He was originally from Lu, knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and had lofty thoughts. When he was alive, he was respected by the world as the "saint of heaven" and "the wood bell of heaven".

The young king of Lu was Yong. At that time, Ji Hengzi, the King of Lu, only knew how to enjoy himself and did not think about the way to strengthen the country. Confucius knew very well that he would no longer be valued in Lu, so he went out to find a way out.

He took some of his disciples and walked through Wei, Cao, Song, Qi, Zheng, Jin, Chen, Cai, Chu and other places for up to 14 years. Chu was the last stop for Confucius to travel around the countries!

However, Confucius traveled around for so many years, but so many countries did not receive the real value of a monarch.

Because the Spring and Autumn Period was an era of contending for hundreds of schools of thought and a era of contending for hundreds of countries.

This is an era when talents are multiplied, and it is also an era of great struggle for big countries to swallow small countries.

It will continue until the Warring States Period, and hundreds of countries in the Central Plains will be compatible with each other.

Finally, seven powerful countries of Qin, Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, and Wei appeared!

At that time, Confucius' Confucianism could be said to be a very advanced political system theory.

In jargon, his Confucianism was ahead of the times thousands of years!

However, Confucianism was inappropriate in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Because it's too advanced.

The Spring and Autumn Period is a special era in which hundreds of schools of thought contend, hundreds of countries compete for peaks, and live to the death.

Although Confucianism is good, it is only suitable for governing the world in prosperous times, but it cannot be used to conquer the world at that time.

Therefore, Confucius traveled around the countries for 14 years. The longer he traveled around, the more famous he became. The upper ruling classes in various countries all praised Confucius as a great sage.

But no one would reuse him.

To give an inappropriate metaphor, it is like the warlords in the modern Republic of China warlords, Confucius was like Gandhi in modern times, who promoted non-violent philosophical thoughts and strived for peaceful change.

If you are the head of a warlord holding a gun, would you dare to reuse him?

However, you dare not reuse him, but you have to admire his knowledge. You can also hear that the Confucian concept of morality and etiquette he said is very advanced, and it is also very beneficial to rule, but it is not conducive to war.

I thought to myself, I will consider it when I unify the Central Plains.

Now, let me promise that I will not be destroyed next year.

Therefore, their choice was to praise Confucius' great wise and kindness, and then give gifts to the country.

This is the result of Confucius traveling around the countries for 14 years.

For 14 years, I had to come and invite countless names and gain the title of a great sage.

The modern revolutionary War of Resistance was also 14 years, relying on the 14 years of blood and faith, and finally establishing a new China.

From this we can see that Confucianism cannot save a country, build a country, and strengthen a country, and can only be used to govern a country.

This will have to wait until the Spring and Autumn Period ends, the Warring States Period ends, the Qin Shihuang unifies the Central Plains, and even burning books and burying scholars. It was not until the establishment of the Han Dynasty, when the truly first-class and long-term ruling dynasty was established that Confucianism had a prosperous soil!

Moreover, such advanced governance concepts have been used for more than a thousand years!

However, in modern times, it was 2,000 years since later generations. Confucianism completely lost its advanced nature in governing the country and eventually became an ancient philosophical idea in modern times.

Many people in modern times will criticize Confucius, but they are more prepared to say that they are the countless dark sins committed by black Confucianism in their thousand-year dominance career.

I hate the house and the house, and I hate Confucius, the founder of Confucianism, especially the descendants of Confucius, as well as more cynicism, corrupt scholars and so on over the past thousand years.

In historical texts, if the protagonist of the time traveler does not make things difficult for Confucius and makes things difficult for Confucianism, he seems to be unable to be considered an advanced modern time traveler.

Just like the rebellion that will occur through Qing Dynasty, it has become a landmark act.

However, think about it carefully.

You are a modern person who has been more than 2,000 years later, using modern advanced ideas.

To criticize the most advanced Confucian theories of more than 2,000 years ago.

This is a bit wrong to think about it? You can criticize its inadvancement, but you cannot deny its advancedness at that time.

We should not ignore its glory and glory as if it does not exist, and we would hate the house and the house forever.

If time goes back 2,000 years.

Earth civilization has long entered the interstellar era.

Modern advanced ideas may also be replaced by more advanced interstellar advanced ideas.

At that time, more advanced interstellar people traveled through time and space to modern times.

You will see it when mocking the backwardness and inadvancement of modern ideas.

The advanced interstellar ideas in the interstellar era may no longer be divided between men and women, between countries, between civilizations.

Interstellar people can change into men and women at will, change into freedom of gender, freedom of love, immortality, sufficient material and complete spirituality, and they are all god-like beings.

At that time, the so-called advanced ideas of modern people.

It is just the backward thoughts of the ancients in the eyes of interstellar people, which are corrupt and backward.

After saying so much, it was not Chen Yu who wanted to lick Kong Saint Kong next, but Chen Yu understood in his heart that he was a thinker who created the most advanced ideas of this era.

Such ancient people, ancient sages, and ancient sages, perhaps their theories were backward and not advanced.

But his ideological realm, height and depth must be admired by every future generation.

Confucius said: If three people walk, there must be my teacher. Therefore, disciples do not have to be inferior to those of them, and teachers do not have to be as good as disciples. They have a sequence of knowledge and specialized in their skills and professions. This is just this.

Is it unreasonable? It makes sense!

This sentence is still one of the most advanced ideas in modern times more than 2,000 years later.

Because it itself contains the possibility that future Confucianism may lag behind the times.

Therefore, Confucius used this to warn his disciples Confucianism to learn to evolve independently.

However, most Confucians in later generations were corrupt Confucianism and cynicalism, and they were not successful in introducing Confucianism into new and evolving Confucianism that was more adaptable to modern Confucianism.

Confucianism has actually been evolving in its development for two thousand years.

I believe I have heard of the sayings of Confucianism, the skin, the law, the law, the law outside, the law inside.

The essence is a proof that Confucianism is inclusive and absorbs other theories and ideas.

Unfortunately, since the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, Confucianism gradually stagnated and evolved.

Especially in the Qing Dynasty, Confucianism not only made no progress, but was even forcibly transformed and degenerated by the wild boar skin rulers!

The order of "leaving your head without leaving your hair, leaving your hair without leaving your head" almost killed all the Confucian elites.

The body, hair, skin, and parents dare not hurt it. This is the beginning of filial piety.

A famous saying in the beginning of the classic "Filial Piety", one of the thirteen Confucian classics.

Those so-called Confucians who ultimately chose to keep their heads but not their hair were just cynical.

It can be said that Confucians had long been corrupted in the Song Dynasty, revolved in the Ming Dynasty, and completely transformed in the Qing Dynasty!

Confucianism has two fatal shortcomings, two of which are the most criticized by modern people.

First, it does not focus on the idea of ​​investigating things and seeking knowledge, and inventions are even derogatory as strange and lewd skills.

Second, the idea of ​​the solidification of the monarch, minister and minister.

These two seriously damaged the advanced nature of Confucianism. Finally, after modern times and science flourished, Confucianism directly penetrated into the bottomless abyss and almost never turned over.

However, now, Chen Yu has the opportunity to personally talk to Confucius, the founder of Confucianism.

Perhaps, if Confucianism can change its future destiny in the future, which will be lagging behind, degenerate and lose its advanced nature at the source?

Chen Yu thought a lot, and what he thought about was the above content.

Until Confucius really arrived, he sat in front of him.

There are also his disciples, Zilu, Zigong, Yan Hui, etc., more than ten most famous people.

They all knelt respectfully in front of him, silently listening to the conversation between the two of them and asking.

Chen Yu sat upright and brewed a cup of tea for Confucius himself.

Yes, clear tea, modern green tea made with hot water.

Chen Yu had a "small invention" ten years ago.

Before, in this Spring and Autumn Period, tea was not soaked and drunk, but was actually eaten as a dish!

Yes, you read that right, tea was like cabbage in this era, and it was eaten as a dish.

God knows that Chen Yu saw a plate of tea dishes with salt on the table for the first time when he was having a meal.

What is that feeling?

Confucius smiled slightly, his ancient face slightly spread, his hands waved with big sleeves, and took the tea.

"Zhongni traveled around the country for more than ten years. Many years ago, I heard that Ye Gong was good at cooking and developing various delicious foods that spread the world. When I was in Zheng State, I ate the 'scrambled eggs of leeks' from Ye County, and also drank the 'ye Gong tea' in the king's court of Qi, and the 'ye Gong braised pork' among the people of Chen State... Now I can drink a cup of Ye Gong tea made by Ye Gong himself, so I can't let Zhongni come here."
