Confucius is a great thinker, educator, statesman, and creator of the thoughts of Confucian School, who lived in the late years of the Spring and Autumn periods (770-478.C.). He loses his father at his childhood and his mother at his teenage. His intelligence and hardworking enable him to have a good command of the Six Arts (i.e. rites, music, archery chariot driving, reading and writing and arithmetic), read widely and become a learned man well known throughout the country. By setting up private schools he educates many talented people with abilities to run a country. In order to maintain the social order he advocates the beliefs "to turn to the rites of the Zhou Dynasty", "to love all" and "to adopt the doctrine of the mean". He cannot make his political beliefs accepted by the state ruler even though he is pointed an high official at the age of 52. He gives up his position and wanders about with his disciples in a desperate plight with the desire to find a wise ruler to accept his beliefs. Fourteen years of his hard travel brings about no result and he has to return to his private school teaching students while compiling a book called The Spring and Autumn Annals inside which are all his unrealized political beliefs. The hard life of Confucius and his great thoughts are vividly described in this TV series, which, not to boast, can be called a rear historical invention with rich ancient Chinese culture.

孔子是中国儒家学派的创始人，伟大的思想家、教育家、政治家，生活在二千四百多年前的春秋末期，他幼年丧父，少年丧母，靠自己的勤奋，精通了“六艺”，博览了天下的典籍，以学识闻名于天下。他兴办私学，培养了一大批治国平天下的人才；他主张“恢复周礼”，倡导“仁者爱人”和“中庸之道”，以图安定动乱的天下。五十一岁，他虽然出仁大司冠高位，却仍无法推行自己的政治主张，只好带着弟子们周游列国，寻找贤明的国君……。然而，颠沛流离十四年，最终仍是一无所获，只好又回到了故国。年近古稀的孔子，并未被命运所屈服，他一边教弟子，一边修纂《春秋》，将自己未能实现的政治主张，融进了《春秋》的字里行间……

该剧艺术地表现了孔子坎坷的一生和博大的思想。人物众多，场面宏大，堪称一部历史文化巨片。
