Cheng Yaojin and others left cursing.

Many civil servants gathered around Kong Yingda.

"Master Kong, what should I do?"

"Your Majesty doesn't even want to take care of this matter, isn't this clearly indulging Du He?"

"We...we must not just sit idly by, we must guard our Confucian etiquette and morality!"

A group of people were noisy, all waiting for Kong Yingda to speak.

Kong Yingda turned around, looked at the back of Li Er leaving the Tai Chi Hall, gritted his teeth and said, "We will do our best to defend Confucian etiquette. You gentlemen will follow me to Laiguo's mansion. Today, I must ask Du He to give an explanation." , otherwise, that rotating wooden chair can never be produced and sold again!"

"As it should be!"

"Don't dare to disobey!"

Led by Kong Yingda, even Pei Ju and others also participated, a group of people left the imperial city in a mighty way and headed straight for Lai Guogong's mansion.

Not long after, a group of people came to the gate of Lai Guogong's mansion.

Old Fu rushed out to greet him, but he was shocked.

He knew all of these people, they were all dignified figures in the court, they usually looked gentle and refined, but at this moment, they looked fierce and angry.

"Oh, my lords, I'm looking for my lord, who should be dealing with business in the imperial city, but he hasn't returned yet!" Old Fu said cautiously.

Kong Yingda stroked his beard, with an inscrutable look: "I didn't come to look for Du Xiang, but today, I came to look for Du He, so hurry up and let Du He speak!"

Old Fu was taken aback.

How can this posture be the same as that of the two armies?

Seeing that the situation was not good, he rushed to the furniture factory.

"Young Master, Master, something has happened. Kong Yingda led a group of people to kill us in front of our house aggressively. He called you by name and asked you to go out and talk. I don't think this is a good thing. You should hide first and let me deal with them! "Old Fu panted heavily and said.

Du He dropped the work in his hand and asked, "Kong Yingda? Isn't that the prince's teacher? Why does he want me?"

Old Fu shook his head.

Du He called Lu Bu to go out, but was suddenly stopped by Old Fu: "Master, you can't go, I don't think those people are kind, and they are all respectable people, if there is a conflict, No matter who is hurt, it will be difficult to explain it when the time comes!"

"Let's go, who dares to be presumptuous in front of this young master's mansion. I want to see what these guys want to do!"

Not long after, Du He came to the door.

When I saw it suddenly, I was also shocked.

There were more than 20 people, all of whom were ministers of the DPRK and China, and all of them stared at him aggressively.

Some of them were actually close to Du Ruhui in normal times.

Du He stepped forward, looked at Kong Yingda with a smile, and said, "Oh, isn't this Master Kong? Why, you came to buy the rotating wooden chair yourself. You see how old you are, and you even made a trip in person to let a Wouldn’t it be fine if someone came to make an appointment?”

Du He had long noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere at the scene, but he didn't care at all, and instead greeted him happily.

Seeing this, Kong Yingda became short of breath with anger.

It is said that Du He is one of the four evils in Chang'an, seeing him today, he really deserves his reputation!

Chapter 51

Kong Yingda's face was gloomy, and he said sarcastically: "Du He, Ming people don't speak dark words. You are the son of the Duke of Lai, and as an official who reads, you have a reputation in Chang'an with "Youth Walk" and "Happy". For the sake of the name, but willing to degenerate, willing to be a craftsman, it is really despised by scholars all over the world!"

"Yes, willing to fall!"

"Let the world's scholars despise!"

Two youths next to him repeated.

Du He was amused, and pointed to the two of them and said, "Master Kong, are you talking about cross talk, and there are two of you who are joking?"

crosstalk?

Everyone was stunned.

Du He paused, and said: "Master Confucius' words are wrong. As the so-called 360 lines, there are champions in every practice. Scholars have imperial examination champions, carpenters also have masters, such as the famous Master Lu Ban, and there are also champions in leading soldiers and wars, such as Sun Wu. Son... Could it be that in the eyes of Master Confucius, all things are inferior and only reading is high? This is not advisable. Just imagine, if everyone in the world becomes a scholar, everyone sits and talks, no one grows crops, no one builds a house, No one cleans the streets, no one guards the border, so can this society function normally?"

Du He finished speaking.

The scene was as silent as the night.

Everyone's eyes widened.

Including Kong Yingda, who didn't know how to refute.

The key point is that although Du He only said a few words, he said one thing after another, and even gave a real example.

Especially the last rhetorical question, it is difficult to refute.

Kong Yingda was holding back for a long time before pointing at Du He with some dissatisfaction, "You, you are sophistry. In ancient times, there was Gongsun Long who argued that a horse is not a horse, but now there is Du He who argues that an official has degenerated into a carpenter. This is really an eye-opener for this old man! "

Du He's face was calm and breezy, and he didn't feel any pressure at all.

Hearing this, he became interested instead, shook his head, took out his fan and fanned it, and said: "Master Kong, you are wrong again this time, how can the matter of scholars be called sophistry, Gongsun Long said that a white horse is not a horse, This is correct in the first place, where is the sophistry, since you have come to this point, let's talk about it today."

Du He waved his hand, and Lu Bu immediately turned around and carried out a rotating wooden chair.

Du He sat down carelessly in front of the master.

When Kong Yingda and the others saw this, they all wanted to go up and kick Du He, but there was a tall and mighty Lu Bu next to him, so no one dared to move.

"Today, let's talk about how this white horse is not a horse!" Du He raised his legs and said slowly.

Du He looked at Kong Yingda: "Master Kong, it was you who proposed this white horse is not a horse, how about you explain why this is sophistry?"

Kong Yingda flicked his sleeves, and said arrogantly: "This is the truth that three-year-old children understand. A white horse is a white horse. Gongsun Long brazenly said that a white horse is not a horse. If this is not a sophistry, what is it?"

Du He pondered: "Master Confucius is right. White horses refer to white horses, and horses refer to all horses. But you are wrong about one thing."

"Where?" Kong Yingda's eyes widened.

Others are full of disbelief.

Kong Yingda is a representative figure of Confucianism in the Tang Dynasty. He has read a lot of poems and books, and many classics, and he can come here as soon as he opens his mouth. How could such a master make mistakes?

Du He laughed and said, "Of course, that is the word 'non', your explanation is wrong, 'non' should not be interpreted as 'not'."
