Confucious said (translating literally) to respect the ghosts and gods yet keep away from them, so I think confucious didn't belive in just one God.

Frankly, it doesn't care. Of course, we would probably consider it to be polytheistic as, in its original form, it was tied to ancestor worship. And the idea of the Mandate from Heaven, which is at the core of the philosophy, is certainly about a god or gods, though Confucius doesn't seem to care which ones.

Confucious says: believe what you want, just live a good life.

ancestor worship, so polytheistic, sort of.
You only worship your own ancestors, though.
It's really a philosopy, not a religion.

No. They have no god to the best of my knowledge.
