"It's not all what you think,

It’s just that some things happened suddenly and I was a little frightened.”

Qingyun chose you as the title here, not you,

It seems that there is nothing specifically about Yin Seke.

When he said he was a little frightened, he looked at Hucaiting again, which seemed to mean:

As you saw at the time, I was indeed frightened.

Xunzhi shook his head and put Qingyun's arm down, sighing secretly in his heart:

Injustice (zha) evil (nan)!

But at such a moment, only I can help my brothers.

Zu Xunzhi took a step forward and blocked the two girls.

"Fifth brother's heart is floating and he really needs to rest.

I took him back to the house first."

Yin Se could see that Xun Zhi spoke solemnly, and then she really started to worry.

"Really, is there a problem?"

"Um!"

Xun Zhi turned back and "helped" Qing Yun, turned his back to the two girls, and gave Liu Ying a wink.

Men’s tacit understanding in this area does not need to be cultivated.

Liu Ying instantly became possessed by drama, and made an exaggerated expression,

"Ah! Fifth brother, why are you bleeding from the corner of your mouth?"

As he spoke, he scratched Qingyun's cheek.

Then he raised his blood-stained fingertips to his eyebrows, looked at the moonlight, and sighed.

As the saying goes, caring leads to chaos. In the eyes of Hu Caiting and Yin Seke, such exaggerated acting skills seemed to have no flaws.

They both stopped immediately, not daring to entangle Xuanzhi and Qingyun any more.

After returning to the room, Xuanzhi asked carefully what happened.

Qingyun did not hide anything, and told the whole story of how Hu Caiting broke into him and was molested by the princess.

"What a brave girl!"

Xuanzhi praised it.

Qingyun shook his head and sighed,

"Actually, she is quite pitiful.

I've probably heard about the princess's marriage.

The Mu family has raised a rebellion outside the customs.

Once you get married, at most it's just a job search.

Since the bad blood between the two parties has arisen, this marriage will inevitably not be blessed.

If you don't marry well, you may soon become a widower.

This is a good result,

If there were any more political strife, her life would be in danger.

From now on, I will always have to live in fear."

"Why, are you starting to feel reluctant to let go?"

"No, no, after all, it's a bit regretful to be friends."

"So, have you learned what she wanted to teach you?"

"Wha, what?"

"Have your cake and eat it, do you have any plans?"

Xianzhi shook his chin toward the outdoors.

Qingyun naturally knew what he was asking, but he still tried hard to divert the topic.

"I don't really like the Confucian way of propositions."

"Oh? How?"

"For example, between fish and bear's paw, why should I choose?

If you like them all but don’t have the money to buy them,

Shouldn’t the solution to the problem be to make more money?

Why should we choose between life and justice?

Does upholding morality have to cost one's life to be worthy of praise?

Confucian propositions sound grand, but most of them have limitations that are taken for granted.

Although the momentum is very provocative, many of the causes and effects cannot be scrutinized."

"So, what Fifth Brother means is,

Do you want to have your cake and eat it too?"

"No, no, that's not what I mean,

I'm just saying this is a false proposition.

What is the reason for giving up the fish for the bear's paw?

Are bear paws more valuable?

But in the daily diet, fish is obviously more important than rice.

When Wuhu invaded the Central Plains, the Qinghe nobles did not choose to sacrifice their lives for justice, but taught the Central Plains traditions to the new king. Are they unjust?

And what my father did back then, hey, was it really worth it?"

Xunzhi was not sure whether Qingyun was deliberately trying to distort the story, or whether he was really touched by this topic.

Since he mentioned his father's generation, the answer should not be too abrupt.

It would be a bit rude to tease someone about the love between children.

So Xunzhi could only chat for a few words.

“Confucianism is, after all, a study of the emperor and a study of world governance.

It is inevitable to forcibly instill a world view and convey inherent judgments of right and wrong.

Taoists are very disapproving of this situation.

Zhuangzi said that virtue is not moral, and it is immoral to use one's own moral standards to measure and demand others."

"Yes, the great path will continue until the saint dies.

I really like the story of the thief.

However, what I appreciate more is Yang Zhu."

"Yang Zhu?"

One of the Ten Greatest Men in the World, Yang Zhuguiji,

This philosopher who thinks I am famous all over the world is considered an outlier even among Taoists.

But why did Qingyun mention Yang Zhu at this time?

"That's right. I remember that he once told an allusion about losing money. How did he say it?"

Xunzhi was naturally familiar with Taoist allusions. When he heard Qingyun's question, he answered as if out of conditioned reflex,

"Qinzi asked Yang Zhu,

If pulling out one of your hairs could save the world, would you pull it out?

Yang Zhu said no,

Because no one in the world can be saved just because he pulled out a hair.

Qinzi asked again, what if it could be done?

Yang Zhu didn't even bother to pay attention to him."

"Not bad.

Yang Zhu is a true wise man and will not answer meaningless questions at all.

For example, the choice between fish and bear's paw,
