All Heavens: Get the Nine Swords at the start

Chapter 206 Manipulated Life
"Everyone knows that Zhuan Zhuan's assassin was recommended by Wu Zixu, that Nie Zheng's assassin was to repay Yan Zhongzi's kindness, and that he was recommended by Wu Zixu to leave the assassin to celebrate Ji."

"And Wu Zixu is just an exiled and declining nobleman. How can he have so much energy, happen to meet these heroes, and gain the recognition of these people?"

Six Fingers Heixia said.

Both of them were taken aback, Gongsun Liji seemed to understand something, and said thoughtfully:

"You mean that Wu Zixu is from a famous family, or that he has the support of a famous family?"

"Well, although these are just some conjectures of mine, this conjecture is very likely to be true. Wu Zixu, a declining nobleman, if there is no powerful support behind him, how would he know exactly that Zhuanzhu and Yaoli who are hidden in the market place are about to be assassinated?" For his ability, there must be a well-informed and eloquent hundred schools of thought to support him."

"And there are only two schools of thought that meet these two conditions, one is Confucianism and the other is famous school..."

The Six-Fingered Black Man continued.

"Why did Juzi suspect famous scholars instead of Confucianism? As far as I know, Wu Zixu's subsequent digging of graves and whipping corpses is a typical Confucian Gongyang school practice."

Although Gongsun Liji has been away from the famous family for many years, she is also from a famous family. She said subconsciously, but after she finished speaking, Gongsun Liji realized that something was wrong, and quickly explained:
"Ju Zi, Jing Ke, don't get me wrong, I have no other intentions but..."

"Li Ji, you don't need to explain, I believe you are not someone sent by a famous family."

Before Liuzhi Heixia could answer, Jing Ke held Gongsun Liji's hand and said seriously.

"You lived in a famous school since you were a child. It is normal to have such a reaction. You don't need to explain too much. The reason why I prefer famous schools instead of Confucianism is also because of some things."

Six Fingers Heixia continued after thinking for a while:
"Although the Confucians are eloquent, they don't like to make friends with knight-errants. Even because of the Mohism, Confucianism rejects knight-errants in the world."

"If we, the Mohists, are following the lower-class route, our roots are in the common people at the bottom, while Confucianism values ​​etiquette, but the common people at the bottom don't know anything about etiquette. So, Confucianism is taking the upper-class route, and our roots are in the royal families and nobles of various countries."

"In this regard, Confucianism has ruled out a lot of suspicion."

The words of the six-fingered black man caused the two of them to nod their heads. Obviously, from the perspective of each school's philosophy, even if the Confucianists take action, they will basically not use assassination methods.

Once this kind of thing gets out and the upper class nobles of all countries know, Confucianism is tantamount to digging its own foundation. Even if Confucianism loses its wisdom, it will not do this kind of self-destruction.

Now that the suspicion of Confucianism has basically been ruled out, the only ones left are famous scholars...

Thinking of this, Gongsun Liji also gradually understood why the reputation of famous people in various countries was not very good. Very few famous people held important positions in the Seven Kingdoms, and few royal families were willing to allow famous people to serve in their own countries. Promote knowledge.

Obviously, these things done by the famous master have not been hidden from the investigation of those who are interested. With such a history of assassination, who would let the famous master enter the court unless he was crazy and desperate.

It is an enemy who must always be on guard against the possible assassination, but it is not enough for a friend. Officialdom has never had permanent friends. This is a well-known fact. Today's friends are likely to be tomorrow's enemies.

The political struggle failed, and there was almost a way out, but it was really useless to be stabbed to death, and there was no time to arrange for the aftermath.

Nobles from all over the world naturally don’t want to encounter this kind of aggrieved death. Therefore, famous people think that they are automatically excluded from the officialdom. An aide or a lobbyist, after all, the mouth of a famous person can still be trusted...

"If Wu Zixu is not outstanding in eloquence, Wu Zixu will not be able to persuade Zhuan Zhu Yaoli to die to help him achieve his wish. And if Wu Zixu is from a famous family, then Zhuan Zhu Yaoli's swordsmanship will definitely be retained by the famous family..."

Gongsun Liji then said: "The person who taught Jing Ke the sword skills is a famous family member, but he left a hand in the sword skills and wanted to train Jing Ke to become the next master, but he didn't expect that Jing Ke didn't follow the route they planned. Later, Mr. Juzi took him back to the Mo family. Mr. Juzi is a master of swordsmanship. In order to avoid leaking things about Jing Ke, they secretly plotted to let me approach Jing Ke. As long as I have seen Jing Ke's swordsmanship, I will discover the famous swordsmanship It can complement Jing Ke's sword skills, so Jing Ke will have problems after practicing famous swordsmanship..."

Listening to Gongsun Liji's analysis, Jing Ke fell into silence, with an uncertain expression on his face.

If this matter is really as Gongsun Liji said, then wouldn't he have been living under the manipulation of others for the first half of his life...

Jing Ke's expression gradually dimmed. Although Jing Ke looked careless on the surface, he didn't even pay much attention to such things as the Mohist chivalrous test, but that was only because he thought that all this was due to his many years of chivalry. And his own martial arts cultivation is valued by Mohist giants, and he can easily pass the test of chivalry...

It can be seen from this that Jing Ke is still very proud of his experience in the first half of his life. Now that he knows that all of this is probably just someone else's arrangement, how can Jing Ke accept it.

Seeing Jing Ke's transformation from the fearless hero in the past to the unprecedented decadence, Gongsun Liji was very annoyed, she wished she could slap herself.

When can you say these things? If you have to say them in front of Jing Ke, wouldn't this be tantamount to directly negating Jing Ke's efforts in the first half of his life?
Thinking of this, Gongsun Liji put her arms around Jing Ke and said softly:

"Ke, you don't need to think too much. These things have already passed. Even if you are really a killer trained by famous masters, no one can deny the things you did. Now the hidden dangers on your body have been removed by senior Kunpeng. Let's go to martial arts again." Practice means, with the help of Senior Juzi, it won't take long for you to recover your strength."

The Six-fingered Black Man didn't want to see the heir he finally selected changing like this, so he also said:

"Jing Ke, the old man never valued you because of your martial arts and those words in the world, but because the old man saw the chivalry in you. You can draw your sword and uphold justice for the people who don't know you. This kind of chivalry is the most important thing in you." The important thing, if this is not the case, why would the old man choose you as the successor of chivalry, the Mohist school has never lacked masters in terms of martial arts, and your reputation is not even comparable to any leader in the Mohist family..."
