Confucius was the prime minister of Lu, and Jing realized that this was the trouble of Qi. He said to Yan Zi: "The existence of saints in neighboring countries is the concern of hostile countries. Confucius is now the prime minister of Lu. What can he do? " Yan Zi replied, "Does the monarch need to worry?" . The monarch of Lu Na is a fatuous and weak monarch; Confucius is a prime minister with both ability and political integrity. The monarch might as well secretly admire Confucius' talent and imagine that he should be the prime minister of Qi. Confucius tried his best to persuade Lu Jun, but he wouldn't listen. Confucius will definitely think that Lu Jun is proud and came to Qi. The monarch should not accept him. In this way, he will naturally break off relations with Lu and cannot be appointed to Qi. Confucius was embarrassed. After a year, Confucius left Lu for Qi, but did not accept his invitation, so Confucius was trapped between Chen and Cai.

During this period, the child prodigy department was abolished for a long time, and gradually recovered after political harmony, so some children unexpectedly passed the exam.

I listened from a distance, beards ringing with each other, horses wailing, wild animals swarming, and all kinds of voices ringing everywhere. Sitting there listening to these voices in the morning, I shed tears unconsciously. Alas, Ziqing! What unusual heart does my Li Ling have, so can I not be sad?

I feel even more bored after being separated from you. I thought of my mother in the world, but she was killed in her old age. His wife and children were innocent and both were killed. I have failed the favor of my motherland and received the sympathy of people all over the world. It will be an honor for you to return to China, and it will be a shame for me to stay in Xiongnu.
