Even with Fu Nian's magnanimity and cultivation, he still had a lot of depression and anger in his heart, so at the beginning of the conversation he uttered words that were half complaints and half complaints that were completely out of character for him.

Gu Xun is bringing up Fu Nian's grievance now, certainly not to stir up trouble, but because he can relate to what he wants Fu Nian to do.

Fu Nian was very smart and immediately guessed what Gu Xun meant:

"The Imperial Master wants me to... fight back?"

"It's not such a formal word, it's just...swearing back." Gu Xun smiled and waved his hand back, "You can't just allow them to criticize you, but not allow you to talk back, right?"

"..." Fu Nian fell into silence.

Gu Xun's words were said lightly, but in essence he wanted Fu Nian to use Xiaoshengxianzhuang's position to completely stand against other Confucian schools and completely...split Confucianism.

There is no doubt that doing this can preserve the Little Sage Village as much as possible.

Moreover, this does not count as Fu Nian's reckless behavior in order to protect himself.

There are obvious problems in Confucianism. As the head of Xiaoshengxian Manor, Fu Nian has the responsibility and obligation to bring order to the chaos.

However, he still couldn't give Gu Xun a definite answer.

Because he was unwilling to bear the guilt of splitting Confucianism, nor the consequences of splitting Confucianism.

Although Confucianism may be the most powerful among the hundreds of schools of thought when it comes to internal strife, Confucianism has maintained peace on the surface after all. It does not fight each other like a peasant family fighting for a hero, nor does it divide into two sects, heaven and man, like Taoism.

No matter how many factions there are within Confucianism, Confucianism is the whole Confucianism.

Gu Xun saw Fu Nian's hesitation, so he reminded him, "Head Fu Nian, this is not just to preserve the Little Sage Village."

"As long as you can suppress the vast majority of Confucianism's untimely voices, it is very likely that Confucianism as a whole will be prevented from heading towards the worst outcome."

"You are the head of Xiaoshengxian Village and the head of Confucianism."

"Mr. Fu Nian, please think about it carefully."

Gu Xun left the last words, then stood up and said goodbye and left.

All that needs to be said has been said, leaving Fu Nian to think about the rest.

It can be said that Zhao Gao's plan against Confucianism went extremely smoothly this time.

In fact, his manipulation of public opinion is not very effective.

If the power of the quicksand had not all shrunk back to the north, Gu Xun could directly use the same method to destroy Zhao Gao's plan.

Public opinion is never exclusive to any one person.

It's a pity that Gu Xun doesn't have the manpower now, so he can only let Fu Nian, who naturally occupies a high position in public opinion within Confucianism, forcefully suppress and destroy Zhao Gao's arrangement.

Of course, it's hard to say how effective this will be, and it may even be ineffective at all.

But you have to try it.

Anyway, the choice is Fu Nian's. Let's see if he is willing to give it a try.

After Gu Xun left, Fu Nian frowned and looked at Zhang Liang, "Zifang, what do you think?"

Zhang Liang thought about it and replied, "This... doesn't seem like a good idea."

"Well..." Fu Nian nodded, and then suddenly retorted, "But this is one of the few ways."

In this situation, no one can save Confucianism, Confucianism can only save itself.

Fu Nian closed his eyes and was thinking alone in his mind. His frown slowly relaxed, and he might have come to a conclusion.

………………

There is a hidden stronghold of the Mohists somewhere in Xue County.

Thief Zhi ducked into the house.

In the room, the four masters and masters were waiting for him.

There has been a lot of chaos in Xue County recently, so Master Ban and the others have also reduced the frequency of outings. Usually when something happens, they just let Thief Zhi go. Unless he is too busy, others will take action.

But this time, Robber Zhi went to see Tian Heng of the Tian clan - regarding the suspicion of the Yishan assassination, the Tian clan said there was news.

"How is it?" Master Ban asked impatiently.

Robber Zhi sat down first, then waved his hands and replied:

"Tian Heng said that his elder brother didn't know that there might be a problem inside, and he apologized deeply for that."

"Stop talking nonsense and focus on the key points." Master Ban rolled his eyes and said angrily.

"Don't worry, it's the key point right now." Daozhi replied with a smile, "Tian Heng said that they need further investigation on the specific situation. They can't give detailed conclusions in a short time, but Tian Dan allowed him to inform other anti-Qin forces about the two

The origins of the internal affairs of the empire."

"Tian Dan said that he was in contact with someone through his connections in Chu State."

"Chu State?"

Master Ban and others looked at each other, and the first thing they thought of was the Xiang family, the aristocrats of the old Chu who had a close relationship with the Mo family.

Then he immediately ruled out the possibility that those two people were related to the Xiang family.
