The Prodigal Son's Happy Life - Chapter 968

[Chapter 968 Food, clothing, salary, people’s wealth and people’s anointing]

Everyone heard this question and looked at each other.

Someone said: “To serve Duke An Guo!”

After the words fell, everyone agreed.

“The kindness that students receive from Duke An will never be forgotten. After completing their studies, they will definitely give their best to repay the dean!”

When everyone said this, they all bowed and saluted.

Fang Xiu felt a little embarrassed when he saw this scene.

He looked at these students, raised his brows, and asked: “Do you think I am the one who seeks fame and reputation?

Or do you think I founded the academy just for my own selfish gain or to control the court?” “

You said things like

” Control the Chaotang!”

The students looked at each other in confusion again, not knowing what to say.

The dean really doesn’t treat them as outsiders!

Since this is not the answer, then why is it?

Everyone’s face showed a look of contemplation.

Fang Xiu looked at them, with a smile on his face, and said leisurely: “I am not asking you questions for the purpose of taking a test, I am just chatting with you.”

After saying that, his eyes fell on a dark-skinned student. .

“Tell me, what do you think? It doesn’t matter, just tell me what you think. Why did you choose to study back then?”

After being clicked, the student’s face showed a pensive look.

Obviously he took An Guogong’s issue very seriously.

After thinking for a moment, he raised his eyes and looked at Fang Xiu with a firm expression: “For fame and fortune!”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the audience was shocked!

Fame and fortune?

Most of the scholars in the world are probably because of this, but is this something that can be said casually?

What would it look like if someone heard it?

However, then I thought about it.

The dean even said such treacherous words as controlling the court, so what else do they have to fear?

So, he became indifferent again.

The student looked at Fang Xiu with firm eyes and explained: “The student was born in poverty. Before he came to the college, he didn’t even have enough to eat.

The student studies in order to serve the dean, the court, and the people. Since he has this ambition, It’s also for fame and fortune!

The student no longer lives a poor life like before.

The student still has parents, and they are old. The student wants them to enjoy a happy life.”

This is very straightforward, without any unnecessary modifications.

After listening to this, everyone had thoughtful expressions on their faces.

Fang Xiu looked at him, smiled, and said: “The book has its own golden house, and the book has its own beauty like jade. You all know these. How many people in this world do not study for fame and wealth?

It was me, who was the first to read. Sometimes, I am just thinking about making money. This is not a shameful thing.”

Everyone looked thoughtful after hearing this.

After a while, a student retorted: “The students don’t agree with what the dean said.”

Fang Xiu looked at the student with a smile on his face and said, “Okay, there are no opinions in this world. Everyone can agree with it.” “It’s normal if you don’t agree with me. Tell me what you think.”

The student stood upright and bowed respectfully, and then said: “Dean, the student thinks that all the food, clothing, and salary are from you. , since we have received it from the king, we must be loyal to the king and repay the imperial court.

The dean gives us the opportunity to study, and he is our mentor. A mentor is like a father. It is filial piety for us to repay the dean and to serve the king. Loyal!”

When everyone heard this, they looked at each other and their expressions changed.

More people frowned and looked at the man, obviously not agreeing with him.

This view is expressed by mainstream students.

Their liberal arts college has always been different from the mainstream students in the Imperial College.

The so-called loyalty to the king.

Those are nobles and nobles, those from aristocratic families.

They, children from poor families, don’t have enough to eat or keep warm.

Growing up, I don’t know how much hunger I endured and how much suffering I suffered.

read?

That is simply impossible!

Even if you are so poor, you still have to pay taxes!

Those who can’t hand it over will have to do corvee service!

At that time, where was the king they wanted to serve?

At that time, why didn’t anyone tell them that you can study and serve the king after studying?

If it weren’t for An Guogong!

At this moment, they are probably still plowing the fields in the farmland, working hard to eat.

Even so, it’s still not enough to live a good life!

To serve the king?

Haha, what a joke!

Everyone thinks so.

The student didn’t think so.

Looking at his clothes, you can tell that he is different from others, he comes from a noble family!

Although there are not many children from aristocratic families studying in Fang Xiu Academy, they are not too few either.

After all, the gentlemen from Fangxiu Academy are all candidates.

In other places, it is difficult to see scholars.

Fang Xiu looked at the student who was speaking, with a smile on his face, and said, “Do you think you should receive food, clothing, and salary from you?”

The student looked firm, nodded, and said, “Yes.”

Fang Xiu smiled. , said: “My views are exactly the opposite of yours. In my eyes, food, clothing, salary, and people’s wealth are nothing more!

Serving the court, what else is there to say, serving the king?”

After the words fell, everyone was shocked!

Food, clothing, salary, people’s fat and people’s anointing.

People’s fat and people’s ointment.

For a time, most of the students were shocked.

They understand the meaning of these eight words very well.

Because they all come from poor families, they have a deep understanding of this.

Their parents worked hard all their lives, but most of their gains were paid to the court.

The reason why the imperial court can continue to run is because of these humble poor people!

Even the chief ministers of the cabinet, and even the several princes, their food, clothing, and salaries were all saved bit by bit by poor people like them!

Food, clothing, salary, people’s support, people’s support, people’s support, people’s support, people’s support, people’s support.

They were deeply shocked and could not recover for a long time!

However, on the other hand, when the children of the aristocratic family heard this, their eyes showed shock!

Obviously, Fang Xiu’s words shocked them even more!

From childhood to adulthood, they have been influenced by everything they hear and see, and they all want to report to you!

Learn martial arts and become an emperor!

The meaning is very simple. Whether studying literature or martial arts, it is all to serve the emperor?

Why?

Because everything they have is given by the emperor.

However, now they heard a completely different view.

That is –

everything they have is given by ordinary people!

Apparently, for a while, they couldn’t stomach the idea.

What is the purpose of serving the king?

It shocked them.

Looking at the entire Chu State, the only one who can boldly say this is An Guogong!

Just like what the elders in the family said.

Duke An Guo is a powerful minister!

However, they all knew how An Guogong treated them.

Duke An Guo treated them sincerely!

For a moment, the king and An Guogong collided in their hearts.

Several people didn’t know what to say, so they lowered their heads and remained silent
