Chapter 38 Knowing and Action Unite, Don't Talk About It!



Chapter 38 The unity of knowledge and action, don't talk about it!

Gongshu Shangzao who came here with Ying Changsheng.

He was from the Mohist school, and he couldn't get used to these Confucian scholars, so he said to Fusu.

"Young Master, these Confucian scholars can only talk about some big truths. I heard that Kony was running out of food in Chendi, and he still preached the scriptures, but when his apprentice stole a pig, he knew the origin of the thing. It’s not correct, but they still roasted and ate it, so it can be seen that what these Confucian scholars said is nothing more than a circus to deceive people..."

"You're talking nonsense. It's obviously made up by you guys from the Mohist family to slander my wife..."

Chunyu Yue suddenly jumped into a rage, and roared at Gongshu Shangzao.

"Okay, shut up!"

Fusu scolded, and immediately gave the order.

"Guard, drive these Confucians out!"

"Eldest son..."

The expressions of Chunyu Yue and Mao Jiao changed greatly.

Usually, Fusu treats them with a respectful title of Mr. each.

Why, how come they have become sectarians now?
"Wait a minute!"

Ying Changsheng shook his head, and then said to the eldest son Fusu.

"Brother, let me say a few words to them!"

Immediately, Ying Changsheng was heard asking the Confucian scholars.

"I don't want to hear the truths you said, but I know one truth, that is, the unity of knowledge and action!"

"The unity of knowledge and action?"

Chunyu Yue and Mao Jiao's expressions changed slightly.

They don't know this sentence.

After all, this is what Wang Yangming said.

But at this time, Ying Changsheng continued.

"Since you talk so much about it, you must be able to put it into practice. Since the work is tiring and you advise us not to do it, then, brother, let's not do this physical work. This makes Confucian scholars like them Come and do it!"

"After all, you advocate loving the people. The slaves in this palace are also the people of my Daqin. Brother and I don't do this job, but someone has to do this job? Isn't it against loving the people to let the slaves do it? They run counter to each other, so this job is left to you..."

After all, without thinking, Ying Changsheng said to the guard next to him.

"Come here, let them dig potatoes for me. The remaining acre and a half of potatoes will be handed over to them, and each will be given a shovel. In addition, keep an eye on them. If they dare to cause damage, destroy food, or If you don’t dig cleanly, you will be punished heavily..."

"promise!"

All the guards shouted.

But Ying Changsheng said to Zhang Liang and Fu Su.

"Let's rest here, eat some fruit, and wait for the potatoes to ripen!"

"This……"

Fu Su frowned a little, Chun Yuyue and Mao Jiao were ministers of the Great Qin Dynasty after all.

It's really inappropriate to force them to work in the fields...

Seeing this, Ying Changsheng said to Fusu.

"Brother, these Confucian scholars have always talked boastfully, but they didn't do anything. Before the world was unified, the monarchs of all countries also saw this clearly, so they didn't use them from beginning to end. After all, they only talk about it. Useful? Empty talk harms the country, but hard work can rejuvenate the country!"

“Empty talk will harm the country, but hard work will make it prosperous!”

Gongshu Shangzao muttered these words, which was immediately regarded as a classic, and he bowed his hands to Ying Changsheng and said.

"The hard work that the nineteenth son said is exactly what my Mo family has been doing!"

"That is!"

Ying Changsheng nodded and praised the Mo family at the same time.

He said to Fusu again.

"So, we can't let these Confucian scholars talk empty talk. Don't they think that we are doing something wrong when we work? Simply leave the matter to them and let them handle it. As for us, I was in the Imperial Garden a few days ago. There are also some watermelons planted here. Let’s go over and see if they are ripe. If they are, we will pick a few and try them..."

"Watermelon, what is this?"

Fusu felt that what Ying Changsheng said made sense.

The unity of knowledge and action.

It is really necessary to do this. These Confucian scholars often talk empty talk instead of practical work. They only talk about it, let them do some practical things, and let them understand the hard work of doing practical things, so as to change them.

However, when Ying Changsheng mentioned watermelon, Fusu couldn't help asking.

After all, there are no watermelons these days.

"A kind of fruit, very delicious!"

Ying Changsheng explained.

Before, in the system, he exchanged some watermelon seedlings with the national luck value, and planted them, but he didn't know if they were ripe or not.

Now go and see, if it is ripe and eat a few watermelons, that would be a beautiful thing!

With that said, the group walked to the watermelon field planted by Ying Changsheng.

I saw, among the watermelon vines, a dozen big round watermelons with black and green stripes lying on the ground, exuding an attractive luster in the sun.

"Look at this head, it's probably familiar!"

"This watermelon is so big!"

Fusu exclaimed, and then asked.

"Then, how to eat it?"

"It's very simple, I'll find some familiar ones first!"

Ying Changsheng said, and immediately, Zhang Liang, Zhang Cang, and Fusu Gongshu Shangzao and his group saw Ying Changsheng in the melon field, rummaging back and forth, and then patted the surface of the watermelon with his hands, listening to the sound inside. The sound came out, and after a while, five big watermelons were selected.

"These five are probably ripe. Pick them off and eat them. As for the rest, let's put them in the ground first, and come pick them up and eat them in a few days..."

After saying that, the group walked to a pavilion not far away.

Although Ying Changsheng destroyed the flowers and plants in the imperial garden.

But he did not destroy the buildings inside, and the pavilion was preserved.

On the stone table, the big watermelon that Ying Changsheng was holding in his arms was placed on it, and the people on the side also put down the watermelon they were holding in their hands.

Then, he looked at Ying Changsheng with piercing eyes, hoping to get a trick to eat watermelon from him.

He only saw Ying Changsheng, looking around a few times, and then looked at Fusu.

For the common people in the Great Qin Dynasty, the saber is a popular trend, especially for the nobles.

However, this place is the Xianyang Imperial Palace, when entering, all swords are not allowed inside, but Fusu is the eldest son, so there is an exception, only a slender bronze sword is hanging from Fusu's waist.

"Brother, bring your sword!"

"it is good!"

Without hesitation, Fusu drew out his sword and handed it to Ying Changsheng.

Seeing that Ying Changsheng was relaxed, he cut open the watermelon with a sword, exposing the red watermelon flesh inside.

This bright color immediately made the corners of everyone's mouths salivate.

But Ying Changsheng made an action, not long after, he cut a watermelon into a crescent shape.

Immediately, he put the sword on the stone table, and said.

"Okay, this is ready to eat!"

"Eat the red ones, you can eat melon rinds, but they don't taste good!"

While calling everyone to eat melons, Ying Changsheng explained.
