Confucius meets with Nanzi
The story is that when Confucius travels around the world and comes to the state of Wei, the ruler of the state of Wei, Nanzi, she says she respects Confucius so much that she wants to meet him. However, Nanzi was known as a whore, so Confucius' disciples were very opposed to the meeting, but Confucius persisted in the meeting, and upon his return he promised his disciples that if he did anything wrong he would be punished by the gods. But we don't know what happened, and that's how far history is from us
Confucius meets with Nanzi
And leaving space for our imagination. I almost had no childhood when I was young, but was forced to recite these Confucian classics, however, every time I recite this will be very excited, because in this story, the sacred image of Confucius was broken, he changed from god to man, which is almost my first time Sexual enlightenment
