Ep. 23: Fu Nian bestraft Zilu und Zifang, während Zifang vorschlägt, Li Si einen Schlüssel zu stehlen

23

Fu Nian calls Zilu and Zifang before him to punish them for harbouring the Mohist rebels and rejecting the Confucian ideals. Zilu takes responsibility, and Zifang argues that it is the right thing to do, not to sit idly by while injustice occurs. They each argue their cases, using Confucius' own teachings. Old Master Xunzi hears the argument and accuses Fu Nian of selfishly turning in the children, Ziming and Ziyu, to save the school. Meanwhile Li Si seeks assurances from Gongshu Chou that the Mirage will be ready to move when required and the Mohists still try to decipher the Black Dragon Scroll. They realise it will take too long to decode manually and Zifang suggests that Dao Zhi should steal a copper disc with the key to the code from Li Si's headquarters in Shanghai. (Source: Wikipedia)
