A	move, happiness
B	change, peace
C	remove, slaves
D	listen, work

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -But by the time of Confucius in the sixth and fifth centuries, the Zhou had essentially lost its control, and China was divided up into congeries of contending feudal states warring with one another for power and control. Confucius lived in this very difficult time, a time of a great deal of tension.

Detailed explanation-2: -Confucius (Kongzi, or “Master Kong, ‘’ ca. 551–479 BCE) Confucius lived in China during the latter half of the Zhou dynasty (eleventh century–256 BCE). As a philosopher and teacher, Master Kong influences far more people today through classic writings, such as the Analects (Lunyu), than he did during his lifetime.

Detailed explanation-3: -Legalism was too strict and the Qin dynasty was overthrown as a result, so Confucianism became the preferred choice.

Detailed explanation-4: -Confucius believed that family respect, especially respect for the elders, would bring peace to Chinese society.
