Fortunately, Han Fei's visiting card had stated Su Xuan's name, so after a little thought, he addressed Su Xuan as \"Mr. Su.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Upon hearing Fu Nian's words, Su Xuan said calmly: \"Head Fu Nian, no need for such formalities!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After the greetings, a serious look appeared on Fu Nian's face, and he asked Su Xuan: \"I wonder what brings you to our Confucian school, Mr. Su?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Xuan is the leader of the Yin-Yang School. Although the name of the Yin-Yang School is not as loud as the Confucian school in the world, it is still a relatively famous school among the Hundred Schools of Thought, not to mention that the Yin-Yang School is backed by the State of Qin.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The leader of the Yin-Yang School is even a peerless master famous in the martial arts world.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Such a person coming to the Confucian school is still worthy of Fu Nian's cautious treatment.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Xuan said calmly: \"Head Fu Nian has asked the wrong person. I am just passing by the Confucian school. If you want to know the purpose of our visit, you should ask Han Fei!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Fu Nian was stunned for a moment, then looked at Han Fei.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Han Fei felt Fu Nian's gaze, and his expression also became serious: \"Head Fu Nian, the King of Qin has an imperial edict he wants to give to the Confucian school!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Upon hearing Han Fei's words, Fu Nian's brows immediately furrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He is a smart person and naturally heard the meaning in Han Fei's words.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The meaning is roughly that the King of Qin wants to issue an edict to the Confucian school.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Logically speaking, the King of Qin has a noble status, and the Confucian school is, after all, just one of the Hundred Schools of Thought; it wouldn't matter if they accepted the King of Qin's edict, but there was another problem before this.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>That is, the headquarters of the Confucian school is located in the State of Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The State of Qi has not yet been destroyed by the State of Qin. What does it mean for the King of Qin to issue an edict to the Confucian school located in the State of Qi?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This posture is equivalent to treating the State of Qi as his own territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The King of Qin is truly overbearing!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Many emotions arose in Fu Nian's heart, but even knowing the King of Qin was overbearing, he was helpless.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After all, the general trend of the State of Qin has been established.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>If he does not accept this edict, it means the entire Confucian school will offend the King of Qin because of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Although the State of Qi has not yet perished, judging by the determination shown by the State of Qin, it will sooner or later take action against the State of Qi, and the State of Qi is absolutely unable to stop the conquest of the State of Qin.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In other words, the incorporation of the State of Qi and the Confucian school into the rule of the State of Qin is a matter of time.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Offending the State of Qin now might not be able to do anything to the Confucian school for a while, but it will leave hidden dangers, which is not conducive to the future of the Confucian school.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>For a time, Fu Nian fell into a dilemma.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He looked at Han Fei and said: \"I wonder where the edict is?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Although he had not yet made up his mind whether to accept the edict, before that, Fu Nian did not mind taking a look at the edict and then thinking about that problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Han Fei said nothing, took a scroll from his sleeve, and handed it to Fu Nian.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Fu Nian opened the scroll handed by Han Fei and looked at the content on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This edict was stamped with the seal of the King of Qin, and since it was sent by Han Fei, he did not doubt the authenticity of the edict, but the content on it made his brows furrow again.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The content written on it roughly meant that since Confucian Head Fu Nian has a way of studying and has the merit of education, he is hereby conferred the title of Doctor, and so on...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Earlier, upon hearing Han Fei say that the King of Qin wanted to issue an edict to the Confucian school, Fu Nian realized the unusual nature of the matter. Now, after reading the content of the edict, he immediately understood the intention of the State of Qin.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"The State of Qin is forcing our Confucian school to take sides...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He sighed in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>As a scholar who only reads the books of sages, Fu Nian actually does not like the State of Qin. Like many Confucian scholars, he does not like the State of Qin. Although it is said that since the Spring and Autumn period, rituals and music have collapsed, the State of Qin has no rituals or music at all. They use the Legalist philosophy of governing the country, emphasizing punishment and neglecting benevolence and righteousness. Even though the State of Qi has always been on good terms with the State of Qin, in the hearts of many Confucian scholars in the State of Qi, the State of Qin is truly a tyrannical country, and the King of Qin is an unbenevolent ruler.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>However, even if he did not like the State of Qin and the King of Qin in his heart, Fu Nian had to force himself to calm down and suppress these feelings of dislike, simply because he is the head of the Confucian school and needs to consider the Confucian school.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After some thought, Fu Nian said to Han Fei: \"Whether to accept the edict, I need to consider it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Han Fei knew the content of this edict early on and was not surprised by Fu Nian's answer. He nodded: \"As it should be!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Thus, Han Fei, Su Xuan, and Jing Ni stayed at the Confucian Little Sage Manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The scenery inside the Little Sage Manor is excellent, and there is the sound of reading echoing.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Xuan seemed extremely interested in the Little Sage Manor. After moving in, he often asked Han Fei about the layout inside the Little Sage Manor and even asked about the location of the library.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Han Fei only thought that Su Xuan was interested in the Confucian books and did not hide it, telling Su Xuan the location of the library directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He did not notice that after knowing the location of the library, a strange light flashed in Su Xuan's eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>On the other side.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After receiving that extremely hot edict, Fu Nian immediately found his junior brother, Yan Lu.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Yan Lu joined the Confucian school halfway. His teacher and Fu Nian's teacher, the previous Confucian head, seemed to be friends across generations. After Yan Lu came to the Confucian school, the previous Confucian head took him in, and then, after the previous Confucian head died and Fu Nian succeeded as the Confucian head, Yan Lu also leaped to become the second-in-command of the Confucian school.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Senior Brother Fu Nian!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Yan Lu was still a teenager at this time and had no beard under his chin.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He bowed respectfully to Fu Nian.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Because of that edict, Fu Nian did not talk about any complicated etiquette and said directly: \"Junior Brother Zi Lu, take a look at this edict!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He handed the edict to Yan Lu.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Yan Lu took the edict, and after seeing the content on it, his gaze suddenly tightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"The State of Qin is forcing our Confucian school to make a choice!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He is also a smart person; how could he not know the intention contained in this edict?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Exactly!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Fu Nian sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Yan Lu put the edict away and asked Fu Nian: \"What does Senior Brother Fu Nian plan to do? Accept the edict, or refuse?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Fu Nian was silent for a while and said: \"The Confucian school is located in the State of Qi. Logically speaking, it should not accept the King of Qin's edict, but the State of Qin is powerful. If we refuse the edict now, I am afraid it will leave hidden dangers, which is not conducive to the future of the Confucian school...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Whether to accept the edict, I have not thought about it yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"I am preparing to go see Uncle Master Xun first!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1451,"2026-06-17T04:20:18.105Z","2026-06-17T08:59:55.704Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash
