Chapter 970
There are many factions in Confucianism, and they all look down on each other. Seeing Ying Zheng letting many Confucian scholars discuss the etiquette of the Fengshan sacrifice at the beginning was a mistake in itself.
The factions looked down on each other and argued endlessly. In such a situation, how could they discuss the etiquette of the Fengshan sacrifice?
Just like now, after Xun Zi stated the etiquette he formulated, these people started arguing again.
However, Xun Zi was Xun Zi after all, not an ordinary Confucian scholar.
"Shut up, you lowly Confucians!"
When Xun Zi said this, he also slightly operated his internal energy. With his strength at the Heaven-Man level, in an instant, these words reached everyone's ears. Everyone's mind was shaken, and they all quieted down.
Hearing Xun Zi call them "lowly Confucians," some people's faces turned red, and they were furious, wanting to argue with Xun Zi, but in the end, because they remembered the identity of the person in front of them, they obediently closed their mouths.
They finally realized that the person in front of them was not an ordinary person, but Xun Zi.
It was fortunate that Xun Zi had been living in seclusion in the Little Sage and Virtuous Manor all these years, playing the game of self-cultivation. When Xun Zi was still active in the world, let alone the various factions within Confucianism, even the Hundred Schools of Thought had been sprayed by Xun Zi. The most critical thing was that those who had been sprayed by Xun Zi could not talk back.
Compared to Xun Zi's evaluation of the other schools of the Hundred Schools of Thought, being called a lowly Confucian by Xun Zi was actually a relatively good evaluation.
Because of Xun Zi's words, many elderly Confucian scholars immediately remembered certain past events.
In the end, they all obediently closed their mouths.
A farce caused by the formulation of the Fengshan sacrifice etiquette gradually came to an end with Xun Zi's arrival.
In the end, all the Confucian scholars "agreed" with the etiquette formulated by Xun Zi, based on the etiquette of worshipping the Heavenly Emperor during the Warring States period, to evolve the etiquette of the Fengshan sacrifice. Strictly speaking, the Fengshan sacrifice was also a way of worshipping heaven and earth, and there were commonalities between the two.

After disparaging the group of Confucians, in order to prevent these Confucian scholars from continuing to make trouble, Xun Zi did not return to the Little Sage and Virtuous Manor but stayed in the eastern tour team. Looking at this posture, it seemed that he was prepared to participate in the Fengshan sacrifice.
"Uncle Master!"
Fu Nian bowed to Xun Zi.
"Fu Nian, you are still too gentle. Sometimes, you don't have to reason with these lowly Confucians of other schools, and you don't have to give them face." Looking at Fu Nian who was bowing to him, Xun Zi's tone was somewhat cold, and he directly said an impolite sentence.
As the Sect Master of Confucianism, he could not suppress those lowly Confucians, but was instead refuted by them. It was really somewhat shameful.

When Xun Zi learned about this, he was somewhat disappointed in Fu Nian.
If Su Xuan had not sent someone to send him a letter, he really would not have known that those lowly Confucians had such courage. In the final analysis, it was because he had been silent for too long that those lowly Confucians became arrogant.
Seeing Ying Zheng soon also knew that Xun Zi had disparaged the group of Confucians and set the etiquette for the Fengshan sacrifice.
The etiquette of the Fengshan sacrifice was roughly formulated according to the etiquette of the Qin State for worshipping the Heavenly Emperor, which was quite to Seeing Ying Zheng's taste.
He could not help but look at Su Xuan in front of him. "Grand Master, was all this in your expectation? Because you knew that many Confucian scholars would argue endlessly about the etiquette, so you went to invite Xun Zi in advance?"
Su Xuan smiled lightly, noncommittal.
He said to Seeing Ying Zheng again: "Does Your Majesty want to visit Xun Zi?"
"Visit Xun Zi?" Seeing Ying Zheng's eyes flickered slightly, and he soon made a decision. "Since Xun Zi has come here, I naturally have to visit him. I also really want to know what kind of person can teach disciples like Han Fei and Li Si."
You must know that Han Fei and Li Si were deservedly people of the Legalist school. And Xun Zi? He was a person of the Confucian school. Being a person of the Confucian school, yet teaching two disciples of the Legalist school, this itself was an incredible thing.
However, combined with Xun Zi calling many Confucian scholars lowly Confucians today, Xun Zi, this person of the Confucian school, was still somewhat special. ===== CHAPTER 972 =====
