"Your Majesty, I may be speaking harshly, but I believe this is the truth."

Tang Yu took precautions in advance because he was afraid that he might break down his defenses again if Ying Zheng attacked him later.

"It's alright, Mr. Tang, please speak freely!"

Tang Yu nodded and said.

"Your Majesty, even Prince Fusu has been misled into being pedantic and inflexible under their tutelage, full of womanly traits and unable to adapt."

"But what would be the effect if this were used on someone who already harbored resentment towards His Majesty and was determined to rebel against him?"

Ying Zheng's face darkened at first, but he realized what Tang Yu meant when he heard the second half of his sentence.

Yes, the Confucian scholars may have made mistakes, but Confucianism itself is not wrong!

Whether a weapon is good or bad depends on its wielder and how it is used!

Even though the Confucian scholars used it in the wrong direction, Confucianism could still become a sharp sword in Ying Zheng's hands.

"In that case, I'll leave it to Mr. Tang."

Ying Zheng then immediately set about doing nothing, becoming a hands-off manager.

With Tang Yu around, why would he need to overthink things every day? He trusts Mr. Tang completely!

"Your Majesty, this is also..."

Tang Yu opened his mouth but didn't speak, then said:

"Your Majesty, I also have a somewhat immature guess about Confucianism."

"However, this speculation still needs time to verify. If the speculation comes true..."

"I'm afraid the Confucianists have grand ambitions; we must eradicate this group of Confucianists completely!"

……

At Chunyu Yue's home.

When Chunyu Yue returned home, he was furious to see Kong Feng still sitting at his table.

"Didn't I tell you to go back and not wander around? Why have you come here again?"

Kong Feng looked at Chunyu Yue with fervent eyes.

"Dr. Chun, I wonder if that villain Tang Yu has already...?"

"Tang Yu? What are you thinking?!"

"The bunch of useless trash you sent couldn't even scratch him!"

"They killed all 30-plus people and then walked out on their own. It's ridiculous!!"

At this moment, Chunyu Yue could no longer hold back and started ranting at Kong Feng.

He was on tenterhooks throughout the entire morning court session.

Kong Feng did not enter the court to serve as an official; all the pressure from the assassination attempt rested on his own shoulders!

This fool acts recklessly, but he and other Confucian scholars will definitely be among those implicated!

It would be a small matter if he himself died, but if it would prevent the entire great plan of Confucianism from being carried out.

Then he would be a sinner against Confucianism for all time, deserving of ten thousand deaths!

"What? How is that possible?"

"They are skilled assassins from the land of Jingchu, and I paid a hefty price for them!"

Kong Feng sat in his seat in disbelief.

He had planned this in detail before he did it.

He had also heard that Tang Yu possessed a weapon even more powerful than a bow and crossbow!

With just a light touch, a person can be killed!

But he never imagined it would be so powerful, after all, he had hired more than 30 people!

"Now you realize just how strong he really is?"

"It's too late!! It's all too late!!"

"Luckily, those 30 people were all killed by Tang Yu!"

"Otherwise, not only will you, you dog, be implicated and forced to accompany Confucius, even at my advanced age!"

Kong Feng's face no longer showed the arrogance and conceit he had at the beginning.

After all, all his confidence stemmed from the belief that those 30-odd people could easily kill Tang Yu.

Kong Feng, a descendant of Confucius, enjoyed praise and acclaim wherever he went.

But only with Tang Yu did he show that disdainful attitude.

Furthermore, the other party's serious and nonsensical ramblings about the knowledge in the Analects completely infuriated Kong Feng, who was always sensitive and insecure.

From that moment on, he felt that Tang Yu had found a way to die!

"Dr. Chun, what should we do now? Dr. Chun!!"

Kong Feng came to Chunyu Yue's side, his emotions in complete disarray.

He no longer cared about the fact that the other person had slapped him, and instead grabbed the other person's arm and kept begging for forgiveness.

"Now you know to come begging to this old man? Too late!"

Chunyu Yue shook off his hand, turned and walked to the side, sighing as he did so:

"What a remarkable figure Confucius was back then! It's a pity you're such a hopeless piece of trash!"

"More trouble than they're worth!"

However, since this matter involved Chunyu Yue's own life and fortune, he decided to be cautious.

"Just live your life as usual these next few days."

"If you feel you can't do it, then say you're sick and stay home and don't move around."

"Don't reveal any flaws, or not only you, but we'll all die!"

After saying this, Chunyu Yue turned and walked outside.

He planned to investigate the details of the assassination attempt so that he could react immediately should any new developments arise.

The person he visited was Fusu, another person involved in the assassination attempt!

"If I can't visit Tang Yu, can't I at least visit Fusu?"

Chunyu Yue wore a smug smile.

Fusu was someone that all the Confucian scholars had taught him from childhood.

It can be said that it has completely transformed into the shape of Confucianism!

He must have told us everything he knew about what happened that day!

"Young Master, Dr. Chunyu Yue has arrived."

"Dr. Chunyu Yue?"

Upon hearing this name, Fusu was about to get up to greet him.

But when he thought of Ying Zheng and Tang Yu's attitudes toward Confucianism, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Even though I don't know exactly what the Confucianists did, judging from the attitudes of my father and Mr. Tang, it was definitely not a good thing.

Fusu, who was already preparing to go out to greet them, said to the little eunuch beside him:

"In that case, let Dr. Chun in."

……

"Fusu, I wonder if you were injured during yesterday's assassination attempt?"

Chunyu Yue made no attempt to be polite upon arrival, swaggering directly to Fusu's side.

Instead of using honorifics, he questioned Fusu in a condescending manner.

It was as if Fusu was honored that he could come to visit him.

Faced with this situation, Fusu, who was used to it, sensed that something was amiss.

Let alone Chunyu Yue, a mere scholar in the palace.

Even Li Si, the Left Chancellor of the Qin Dynasty, had to address him as Prince Fusu!

Similarly, when Mr. Tang sees me, he will also address me as Prince Fusu.

Even when he was with Fusu, they always treated each other as equals, and he had never acted like this before!

Chunyu Yue, you really have a lot of nerve!

After briefly recalling the other party's past behavior, Fusu gradually realized that something was wrong.

The other party seemed to lack both the affability of someone of the same generation and the respect one would show to the King of Chu.

All they have is the teacher's strictness and condescension towards the students!
