"Ahem...Father, why are you here?"

Cao Zhi touched his nose and said with embarrassment.

"Why, shouldn't I come?"

Cao Cao snorted coldly.

He looked at Cao Zhi, then at the three women in the room.

The anger in Cao Cao's heart was ignited in an instant.

As for Guo Jia, he was speechless at this moment.

You must know that after learning that Cao Zhi attacked Confucian classics and Guan Ning fainted from anger.

The two of them kept discussing ways to help Cao Zhi.

As soon as they had some idea in their minds, the two of them rushed to find Cao Zhi.

I was afraid that if I wasn't careful, Cao Zhi would do something weird again.

He was also afraid that Cao Pi would take action at this time, leaving Cao Zhi completely unable to resist.

So the two of them hurried over to take charge of Cao Zhi.

But what the two did not expect was that Cao Zhi did not take this matter to heart at all.

Instead of taking the matter to heart, he was flirting with the three women in the living room.

……

Cao Zhi acted like this.

This naturally made Cao Cao angry.

But anger is anger.

But he is his son after all.

So after driving out Xu Chu, Cui Yao and the other two girls.

Cao Cao said with a serious face:

"Rebellious son, why did you offend Guan Ning? Don't you know that he is one of the representatives of Confucian classics?"

"Why did you offend Guan Ning? Guan Ning insulted my father and me. He used the story of the Battle of Wancheng to mock my father. As a son, I can tolerate this!"

After thinking for a moment, Cao Zhi finally decided to tell the story of the "Battle of Wancheng".

In Cao Zhi's view, Cao Cao is now at the critical point of explosion.

If you don't vent your anger, it will definitely be bad for your health.

But in the current situation, he didn't want to be the target of Cao Cao's venting, so he could only "suffer" Guan Ning.

Of course, it can’t really be considered as an injustice, because Guan Ning really said these words.

Sure enough, as soon as Cao Zhi mentioned the Battle of Wancheng, Cao Cao exploded.

"You corrupt scholar, you are courting death!"

Cao Cao's hair stood on end with rage, and his chest heaved violently.

Just as Cao Zhi thought.

Cao Cao would use this as an excuse to angrily rebuke Guan Ning.

But he was surprised to find that Cao Cao's anger was disappearing little by little.

"Boss Cao is truly talented in controlling his anger!"

After a moment, Cao Zhi silently gave Cao Cao a thumbs up in his heart.

"Rebellious son, Guan Ning insulted me, you could have killed him, but why did you insult the classics?"

Cao Cao continued.

"Classics, classics again!!"

Seeing that Cao Cao's words were full of fear of Confucian classics, Cao Zhi became unhappy.

In Cao Zhi's view, Confucian classics are garbage that restricts thoughts.

This kind of knowledge should have been thrown into the trash long ago.

But that's the kind of knowledge it is.

This made Cui Yan, King Zhao, Cao Cao and other capable people avoid him like a tiger.

"Father, I think..."

Cao Zhi originally brought out his own "theory of food taste" to prove the restriction of thought by Confucian classics.

After saying this, Cao Zhi said with a proud look on his face:

"Father, in my opinion, Confucian classics restrict thought and poison the world. It's just garbage. It's such garbage. By doing this, I am acting on behalf of Heaven!"

Cao Zhi tried to use as many words as possible to describe Confucian classics, hoping that Cao Cao could understand him.

But to Cao Zhi's disappointment.

Cao Cao, who had originally calmed down his anger, exploded again after hearing Cao Zhi's words.

"Fuck, is Boss Cao in menopause? How can this even blow up?!"

Seeing that Cao Cao was still angry even though he hadn't made any mistakes this time, Cao Zhi couldn't help but feel depressed.

"Fourth Young Master, you are right. Confucian classics do restrict thought..."

"...But have you ever thought about why so many intelligent people in the Han Dynasty didn't raise this question over the past four hundred years?"

At this moment, Guo Jia said.

“Why didn’t they raise this question?”

Seeing Guo Jia suddenly raise such a question.

Cao Zhi couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

In my mind, I couldn't help but recall what Chen Lin told me about the origin of Confucian classics.

Suddenly, Cao Zhi had an idea in his mind, and then he said in shock:

"I understand now. The reason no one has proposed using Confucian classics to restrict thought is because rulers only need one kind of thought!"

"Yes, the reason why Confucian classics restrict thought is because rulers only need one kind of thought!"

"In other words, Confucian classics are more conducive to the rule of the rulers!"

"You may not understand this now, but I think you will understand it in time!"

Guo Jia smiled.

? ?

When Guo Jia suddenly said this, Cao Zhi instantly understood why Cao Cao was angry.

Because Cao Cao's current identity is infinitely close to that position.

And the study of classics is beneficial to the rulers' rule.

Equivalent substitution, Confucian classics, is beneficial to Cao Cao's rule.

No wonder Cao Cao was so angry when he just said that Confucian classics were rubbish.

This is called the butt determines the head.

"However, since Guo Jia was able to say what he just said, it proves that more and more people have discovered the problems with Confucian classics!"

"It's only because they don't want to stand against Confucian classics and have no suitable alternatives that they remain silent!"

"They have no choice but to remain silent, but I don't need to. I have Yangming's philosophy of mind in my hands. As long as I can promote Yangming's philosophy of mind, I don't need any Confucian classics!"

Thinking of this, Cao Zhi immediately met Cao Cao's gaze and said seriously:

"Father, I still think that classics are garbage!"

"However, please rest assured, father. I have found a substitute for the classics, and I can guarantee that this substitute is more suitable and more useful than the classics!"

Without waiting for Cao Cao to get angry, Cao Cao finished his words in one breath.

As Cao Zhi finished speaking.

Cao Cao and Guo Jia were both stunned.

After a long time, the two looked at each other, and just when they were about to ask Cao Zhi to tell them what he meant by "substitute".

Just then, a servant came and lingered at the door of the living room with a business card.

Seeing this, Cao Zhi quickly called his servants over.

"Yang Xiu?"

When Cao Zhi saw the business card, the word "chicken ribs" immediately came to his mind.

"If I'm not mistaken, this is the useless guy in history, and he's also my fan!"

Cao Zhi thought to himself.

the other side.

Cao Cao and Guo Jia saw Yang Xiu's business card.

The two were stunned at first, and then their faces showed joy.

"Zijian, talk to Yang Xiu more. We're leaving first!"

Cao Cao patted Cao Zhi on the shoulder and smiled.

"Fourth Master, Yang Xiu is a man of great learning and astonishing talent. It would be good for you to communicate with him more."

Guo Jia also gave advice at this time.

After saying this.

The two of them left quickly.

Cao Zhi noticed it.

The two of them went out through the back door.

It looked like the two of them didn't want to meet Yang Xiu.

Although I don’t know why Cao Cao and the other two did this.

But now that Yang Xiu is here, I naturally have to meet him.

Thinking of this, Cao Zhi asked someone to invite Yang Xiu in.

……

the other side.

The back door of Cao Zhi's mansion.

In a huge carriage.

Cao Cao and Guo Jia looked at each other, and both showed joy on their faces.

"The Hongnong Yang family has three dukes in five generations. If things get out of hand, kicking him out will be enough to calm the anger of the Confucian scholars!"

Cao Cao laughed.

"The Fourth Young Master is not good at judging people and making friends carelessly. He was bewitched by Yang Xiu and said something that was detrimental to Confucian classics. Sikong, this excuse is not bad!"

Opposite Cao Cao, Guo Jia laughed.

"Good, very good, very good!"

Cao Cao said.

Even Yang Xiu himself did not expect this.

I just handed over a business card.

Cao Cao and Guo Jia destined him to be Cao Zhi's scapegoat.
