Chapter 64 Putting aside the facts, it is not me who is wrong, but the world
After Gongsun Ce entered Xiaoshengxianzhuang, he wrote two articles in total, one was "Four Strategies for Plague Prevention and Control" and the other was "Regardless of Sex".

Confucius said: "The benevolent man, when he wishes to establish himself, also establishes others; when he wishes to achieve himself, also achieves others. He can use analogies close to him, and this can be regarded as the way to benevolence."

Mencius said: "The goodness of human nature is like the tendency of water to flow downwards. There is no man who is not good, and there is no water that does not flow downwards..."

Xunzi said: "The nature of man is evil, and those who are good are false."

Confucius did not explicitly state whether human nature is good or evil, but some of his quotations reflect the view that human nature is good.

Mencius's idea is that human nature is inherently good.

As for Xunzi, he was the originator of the idea that human nature is evil.

In an era when a group of Confucian scholars believed that human nature is inherently good, Xunzi was the first to propose that human nature is inherently evil.

Xunzi hoped to achieve a state of unity between man and nature through this, but unfortunately not everyone can accept the idea that human nature is evil.

So Gongsun Ce jumped out to smooth things over, and the article he published showed that people were guilty.

More emphasis is placed on prenatal education and acquired influences, in order to deduce the argument that human nature is nihilistic.

The doctrine of the mean is the most accepted idea. When the theory of human nature being good and the theory of human nature being evil were arguing fiercely, Gongsun Ce came up with a compromising statement.

For now, it seems that you will be criticized by both sides, but as time goes by, more and more people will accept it.

Gongsun Ce’s theory has a bit of a sense of “putting aside the facts, it’s not me who is wrong, it’s the world”.

There are far more people who like to pass the buck than those who like to take responsibility. As long as the fault is not theirs, they can do whatever they want.

However, Gongsun Ce still felt a little uncomfortable when Bei Mingzi read this article out in public.

Gongsun Ce took out the heavenly book and copper box that he had been carrying with him, and asked Bei Mingzi about his views on these two things, "Senior Bei Mingzi, do you know the solution to these two things?"

Bei Mingzi still had an unfathomable expression on his face. "Nan Gong's Heavenly Book and the Seven Azure Dragons? I don't know how to solve the mystery surrounding them.

As far as I know, Nan Gong has obtained the Heavenly Book for quite some time, but he doesn't know how to read the contents of the Heavenly Book.

It is said that only when the destiny arrives will the heavenly book reveal something.

To solve the mystery of the Blue Dragon's Seven Stars, there are many prerequisites. I only know that it requires special bloodline."

Gongsun Ce thought of Gao Yue, "Besides the Ji bloodline, what other bloodline do we need?"

Bei Mingzi glanced at Gongsun Ce with a half-smile, "Ask yourself."

All of Gongsun Ce's questions were partially answered. When he was about to leave Bei Mingzi's thatched cottage, Bei Mingzi suddenly spoke, "My friend, I have been staying outside Xinzheng for a long time.

It is time to leave now. Please take care of yourself. Also, please come and watch the battle between heaven and man in four years."

After leaving Bei Mingzi's thatched cottage, Gongsun Ce began to think about what Bei Mingzi meant.

Tracing back to the origin of the Blue Dragon and the Seven Stars, it is not difficult to find that it is related to Emperor Huangdi.

Among the descendants of Emperor Huangdi, there are three major surnames: Gongsun, Ji, and Xuanyuan.

These three surnames later gave rise to other surnames.

Apart from the uncertain factor of Duke Zhuang of Zheng, the last time the Blue Dragon appeared was when King Wu conquered King Zhou.

Looking at the overlap of the two events, if there is any special bloodline that played a role in it, it is undoubtedly the Ji bloodline.

The royal family of Yan was of the Ji clan, but what position did Feiyan's bloodline occupy in it? Gongsun Ce was a little confused about this.

Feiyan was waiting by the stream as usual today. After she saw Gongsun Ce, she subconsciously formed hand seals and wanted to use the Dragon Swimming Energy, but Gongsun Ce waved his hand to stop her.

"Stop!" Feiyan stopped the rhythm of running her Qi and looked at Gongsun Ce in confusion, "What's the exception today?"

"Confirm my little guess."

Gongsun Ce took out the copper box, bit his fingertip, and smeared the blood on the copper box. Then Gongsun Ce looked at Feiyan and said, "You also put some blood on it."

Feiyan hesitated for a moment, used her internal energy to force out a drop of blood from her fingertips and smeared it on the copper box. Then the copper box opened, revealing a scroll.

The moment Feiyan saw the scroll, she instinctively tried to snatch it away, but Gongsun Ce was faster and snatched the scroll from the bronze box in advance.

Gongsun Ce only saw two words written on the scroll - Canglong.

Gongsun Ce suddenly realized something. Duke Zhuang of Zheng also had the surname Ji. Perhaps the bronze treasure chest in the cold palace of Zheng State could be opened with his and Feiyan's blood.

However, a new problem arises. According to the original novel, it was Mo Ya who ordered the salvage of Zheng State's cold palace, and then the Canglong Secret Axis was discovered underwater.

Who opened the bronze treasure chest? Who opened the bronze box?
Gongsun Ce looked at Feiyan and said, "I can't give you this."

Feiyan's tone was calm, but unquestionable, "Give it to me, this is what Lord Donghuang wants."

Gongsun Ce took the Blue Dragon Secret Axis and stuffed it into his arms. "Come and grab it if you have the guts. Anyway, you didn't snatch the copper box away so many times before. Now it's just a repeat of the previous experience."

"Wow!"

Fei Yan began to form seals, and the dragon energy transformed into a three-legged golden crow and flew towards Gongsun Ce. However, Gongsun Ce could see that this three-legged golden crow seemed to be a little malnourished.

Gongsun Ce and Fei Yan had fought many times, and they understood each other well enough to know what the other wanted to do just by raising his hand, but of course that was limited to physical combat.

Gongsun Ce clearly saw Feiyan's trembling hands and was speechless.

Fei Yan gritted her teeth and forced the three-legged golden crow to pounce on Gongsun Ce. Gongsun Ce had no choice but to draw the Sun-Covering Sword from his waist.

The sword flashed, and the three-legged golden crow was cut in half. Feiyan's face turned pale, and Gongsun Ce stepped forward to support Feiyan, whose body was shaky.

Yin-Yang School pursues extremes too much, and their characters are often a bit paranoid and vicious.

Feiyan did not break free from Gongsun Ce's embrace, "Your Excellency Donghuang raised me and taught me the art of Yin and Yang. How can I give up this kindness?"

Gongsun Ce pursed his lips, "When did I ever tell you to betray the Yin Yang family?"

Feiyan was stunned, her mind suddenly confused, "I don't want to be your enemy anymore, but Lord Donghuang will not miss any clues about the Blue Dragon Seven Stars.

If His Excellency Dong Huang orders me to snatch the Blue Dragon Secret Axis from you, won’t we have to fight to the death?"

Gongsun Ce smiled and pinched Feiyan's cheek. Feiyan tried her best to control her pretty face to dodge Gongsun Ce's big hand.

But Feiyan forgot that she was still in Gongsun Ce's arms and she couldn't escape at all.

"Donghuang Taiyi will set a time limit for the mission?"

Feiyan shook her head and said, "There has never been a rule about this. As far as I know, other elders of the Yin-Yang family have been searching for clues about the Blue Dragon and the Seven Stars in the Seven Kingdoms for many years.

His Excellency Dong Huang never recalled them, but allowed them to continue their mission."

Gongsun Ce raised his hand and tapped Feiyan's forehead gently, "Silly Feiyan, can't you use the excuse of trying to grab things but failing to grab them to delay the time of returning to Yin Yang Family?

It's just that the mission is not completed, so I can't return to Yin Yang Family. How can this be considered as betrayal of Yin Yang Family?"

Feiyan opened her mouth. It was too early for her to use this little trick of slacking off.
