Confucius is becoming more and more intriguing

My name is Yao and I'm going through a troubling state in my career right now- it could just be mid-life crisis, but I think it has something to do with this man named Confucius, who has been exposed to poverty.  I have worked for the government of China for 15 years now, since 535 BC.  Now it's 520 BC and this new guy in government Confucius is talking about this new idea of life, and he sums it up by basically one word: goodness.  He thinks if the ruler is good, then everyone else will be.  Also he came up with 5 traditions The government doesn't like this, but the people do, and the thing is, it's becoming more and more intruiging to me, but I don't want to admit it.  The Government is going to kick him out tomorrow, but Confucius claims he'll become a wanding teacher.  I think in about 300 years, the government has to give in and develop this idea that everyone doesn't have to be perfect.
