The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 969

[Chapter 969 Guiguzi]

“Hahaha, it seems that the housekeeper doesn’t know what happened in Yan State. Then let me tell you what happened in Yan State that made your Lin family work for Yan State, and what you did is a thing that changed history.” The

fast horse censor pretended again in front of Lin Tian.

Then the fast horse censor and Lin Tian also told the whole situation in Yan State recently. The housekeeper couldn’t believe his ears. The young man was so mature now. She

shared the worries of the whole country and was deeply loved by the emperor. The emperor’s favor was not because of her appearance, but because of her talent and wisdom. She was able to discover the shocking secret in such a short time.

And she was able to capture Prime Minister Zhao, so that Yan State avoided a temporary crisis. The housekeeper and the young master didn’t know all this. They just thought that Lin Tian was helping the emperor.

Hearing about the current situation, the housekeeper was so shocked that he couldn’t speak.

“It turns out that in just three months, you have such courage and vision. The master and I have always thought that you were trying to escape from our Lin family’s business, but we didn’t expect that you are so outstanding now.”

The housekeeper kept praising Lin Tian, which made Lin Tian shy and dared not speak.

“Master Lin has some martial arts skills. He told us that he learned it from his master, but he was unwilling to tell us who his master was. I already think I am a master. After seeing the master’s skills that time, I am ashamed of myself.” The censor

quickly asked such a question. After all, he didn’t know everything about the master, and the master’s mysteriousness also made him full of curiosity.

At this time, the housekeeper remembered an incident in the past. At that time, the young master was too naughty. He played on the street all day and didn’t do his work. He didn’t even know how to read, let alone write. But the master also spoiled this son too much and let him go.

At that time, an old man passed by this business visit and fell in love with this naughty child at first sight. He also grabbed Lin Tian and asked him carefully. Then the old man brought the child to the old master.

And their conversation, now thinking about it, is also very magical, and even a little scary. The housekeeper gradually recalled the conversation at that time.

“Old man Lin, your child has a strange bone structure. From his eyes, you can see that he is a great talent. When I came to him, I also had a feeling, a feeling of saving the world from danger. This child is probably not simple.”

At that time, it was a white-haired old man, his hair had turned gray, and the beard on his chin had grown to his chest. But his ears are a little different from ordinary people, some are pointed, like an elf.

What’s more terrifying is that his eyes are full of wisdom. Just looking at you, his prestige has already shocked your whole body, and facing his pressure, it is difficult for people to doubt. He relied on his feeling to think that the young master is a plastic talent.

But the master was helpless at the time. The child was also very naughty, and no school was willing to accept the child. Even if he spent a lot of money to let the teacher teach him knowledge, it would be in vain. This also made the master worried all day.

“In this case, I may recognize you as my son’s teacher, but I hope you can teach my son some more special knowledge. I believe you enough because I can see that you are an extraordinary person.

I hope my son can learn about current affairs. I dare to ask, what school are you from?”

And the old man’s question also attracted Laozi’s attention. At that time, it was the Warring States Period, which was a period of great cultural change and turmoil. Various schools of thought competed with each other, and each school hoped to accept more disciples.

In order to make their own schools flourish and become the mainstream, the entire Zhan State was led by several major schools.

One is the Xiaoyao School popularized by Zhuangzi, the Confucian School led by Meng Ke, and the Legalist Thought led by Guiguzi, and the Taoist Thought of Laozi. These thoughts are the advocacy schools of each country.

These schools of thought were used in every institution of the country, so that the whole country had to follow such ideas. The most powerful Qin State at that time used the Legalist thought to make the country strong and rich.

At that time, the old man left a sentence, “I am Guiguzi, the mainstream of the Legalists in the Warring States Period. Those who believe in me will know from me. I hope you can rest assured that your son will be loyal to the country when he returns.”

After leaving this sentence, Lin Tian also hurriedly packed his luggage, and soon Lin Tian was taken away by Guiguzi.

Faced with such a large industry of the Lin family, there was no good heir. The son of the competitor’s family had already learned all kinds of arithmetic, including some understanding of the operation of the entire industry, while his own children only cared about playing.

In desperation, the master made up his mind and sent the young master to the old man as an apprentice. When he returned after completing his studies, he would go home to inherit the family business. After sending the young master away, the master was worried and painful all day long.

Lin Tian was naturally familiar with all this. When he followed his master to the secluded mountain, there were actually 40 or 50 children of the same age as him in the academy, including Li Si and Meng Tian, who were the most consistent at the time.

“When I first came here, the master did not impose particularly strict control on us. He asked us to eat, study and play on time all day. Gradually, as we grew older, we were restricted more and more.

But our self-control ability became stronger and stronger. We read books in the study hall all day, and the master would summarize what we learned today every day. Over time, we formed this strong self-control.”

After Lin Tian finished speaking, he also looked at the dark night outside. The stars were shining, but in the room illuminated by a candle, only Lin Tian was holding a book and pondering.

He was recognized by his master as a political talent at the time, so a book of Shang Yang accompanied him for nearly two years. During these two years, he gradually decomposed the entire book of Shang Yang word by word. When you encounter a question you don’t understand, just ask the teacher directly.

He also had a clear grasp of Shang Yang’s thoughts, from astronomy and geography to the people’s crops, all matters closely related to the people were settled.

Shang Yang also worked hard for the reform of the entire Qin State, spent three years visiting various parts of Qin State and visiting the folk customs of various regions. Although Shang Yang was from Wei State, he was deeply attracted by the regional customs of Qin State.
