Chapter 529 Bad News

After hearing this, our ancestors realized that not everyone can travel around the world. It is very scary to encounter danger on the road and scare a passerby to death.

The common people in front of the sky were trembling with fear. They didn't expect that traveling far away would be so dangerous. Also, there were still many bandits in the mountains like theirs.

Those bandits are so hateful. They often come down the mountain to cause chaos, especially in years of disaster, making it difficult for the people to survive.

"I didn't expect that you, Confucius, have experienced so many things," Wang Yangming said. He is also in a low point now and doesn't know what the future holds.

But he knew that when he returned, everything would be different.

"Wow, it feels like your experience, Confucius, is an adventure. It can even be filmed into The Passion of Confucius," Li Wu supported his face. Isn't this a complete adventure story?

Moreover, he encountered various dangers several times, was trapped halfway, and had eaten all the food, and almost starved to death.

Some were separated from their disciples, waiting for their disciples to find them, were laughed at by others, and were like lost dogs.

However, later generations simply used the four words "traveling around the countries" to describe the difficulties he faced at that time.

"The Passion of Confucius, this is a very apt description," Mencius could not help laughing, and Confucius himself laughed along.

"I don't feel any hardship," Confucius said. In fact, at his age, he has become indifferent to everything and everything is over.

"Master Kong, you have not been easy. No matter how much hardship you have experienced, you have never given up. I would like to offer you a toast. I am also in a low point now. It can be said that I have some connection with you, the immortal," Wang Yangming nodded to Confucius and Mencius.

Several people drank the wine. "I know that Saint Wang was beaten with forty sticks and banished to Longchang, Guizhou, because you wrote a letter to impeach the powerful eunuch Liu Jin. Hehe, there is indeed some connection," Li Wu said. Wang Yangming nodded. Alas, the court of the Ming Dynasty is now full of corrupt officials, and loyal officials have no chance to succeed.

In front of the curtain, Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang, was once again furious. How did his Ming Dynasty become like that, with eunuchs in charge of the government again? Hadn't he learned enough lessons from the previous dynasty?

It was because eunuchs had been in charge of government affairs in previous dynasties that Zhu Yuanzhang issued a special order and even put up a sign to prevent eunuchs from interfering in court affairs. What was the result?

In the barrage, Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang once again scolded Zhu Qizhen.

Although Zhu Qizhen had died a long time ago, it did not stop him from doing those ridiculous things. Zhu Yuanzhang just wanted to say that he died a good death!

If he didn't die, he would want to kill that bastard Zhu Qizhen.

The emperors of the Ming Dynasty trembled in fear, fearing that Taizu would curse them. Although they had never seen this Taizu, they were extremely afraid of him. Just from the barrage of comments, they knew that Taizu was a ruthless person.

"Alas," Wang Yangming sighed deeply.

"Saint Wang, please don't sigh. Things will be different from now on," Mencius said with a smile, and Wang Yangming nodded. "It is indeed different, saint. Hahaha, I don't deserve it. I don't deserve it," Wang Yangming waved his hands and shook his head.

He was not a saint, and felt unworthy of the award. Moreover, it was said by Confucius, so Wang Yangming did not dare to agree with it.

"Hey, Saint Wang, please don't say that. People in later generations will call you a saint, so you must have done extraordinary things. You deserve the title of saint," said Mencius.

Confucius also nodded and looked at Wang Yangming with a kind face and admiration in his eyes.

Wang Yangming just smiled bitterly and said nothing more.

"Ahem, let me continue to talk about your deeds, Confucius, Saint Wang. In fact, what Mencius said is also true. It is recognized that you can be called a saint, so you don't need to be humble," Li Wu could actually understand.

This saint is the evaluation given by later generations. Wang Yangming himself felt that he was just doing what he should do and wanted to do, and never thought about these things.

"Just now I was talking about your travels around the world, Confucius.

In 684 BC, the State of Qi sent troops to attack the State of Lu. Confucius' disciple Ran Qiu led the Lu army to fight against Qi and won.

Ji Kangzi asked Ran You where he learned his talents from.

Ran You said that he learned it from you, Confucius.

Thanks to the efforts of your disciple Ran Qiu, Ji Kangzi sent someone to pick up Confucius, who was 68 years old, and brought him back to the State of Lu.

At this point, Confucius, your fourteen-year journey around the countries has come to an end.

Confucius, after returning to your country, you no longer had any thoughts of becoming an official, but instead began to organize your own thoughts and ideas over the years, as well as what you had gained during your travels around the world.

At the same time, he began to revise the history books of Lu.

In 483 BC, your son Kong Li passed away, and you were filled with grief and indignation. How many people could accept the fact that an old man had to send off a young man?

The following year, Confucius, who was already seventy years old, said that he could do whatever he wanted without breaking the rules.

In the same year, your favorite disciple Yan Hui also died before you, which made you sad. One after another, they left you.

Alas, birth, aging, sickness and death are the most normal things, but sadness is also inevitable." Although I can understand it, understanding is one thing, and sadness is also real.

When Confucius heard this, he also felt sad. His son and Yan Hui had passed away before him.

Kong Li and Yan Hui in front of the sky curtain suddenly heard the news of their own deaths. They were silent and felt not very happy.

It doesn't make sense that they can't outlive their father/master.

Are they in such poor health?

Suddenly, a lot of doctors appeared on the barrage, treating patients online, and none of them said a word.

"Master Confucius, please take good care of yourself. You still have a good life ahead of you," Mencius patted Confucius' hand and said, "There are still many years left."

"I'm fine, nothing's wrong," Confucius said cheerfully, as if he was not affected by anything.

"Please continue speaking, my little immortal. I can bear it," said Confucius.

Seeing Confucius like this, Li Wu felt very uncomfortable. He knew that Confucius was forcing a smile. Although everyone thought Confucius was great and a saint, Confucius was actually just like us ordinary people, with seven emotions and six desires. How could he not be sad to hear that his son and favorite disciple had passed away before him?

I just keep all my worries inside, and there are many things I can’t say out loud.

"In 481 BC, Duke Ai of Lu hunted a unicorn during his western tour. Confucius thought it was not a good omen, so he stopped revising the history book.

In June of the same year, Chen Heng of Qi State murdered Duke Jian of Qi. Confucius fasted and bathed for three days, then met with Duke Ai of Lu and requested that Lu send troops to attack Chen Heng.

However, your request was rejected. Later, Confucius asked Ji Sun for troops, but was rejected again.

The following year, Confucius, another of your most proud students, Zilu, died in a civil strife in Wei State, and his body was chopped into meat sauce. Confucius, after experiencing this series of blows, you knew that your health was almost failing.

Yes, hearing these bad news again and again, even the strongest body will fail, and you, Confucius, were already very old at that time, alas! "
