Chapter 294 White Picking Craft Master

System: [He cried and said, it's not fair! He said that Sun Langjun had to apologize even if he hit someone. As a result, Sun Langjun continued to refute that he was right, because 'Mozi also said, "Promote benefits and eliminate harm, and punish injustice." Punishing injustice means that when facing the inappropriate behavior of the other party, you must bravely attack! So when parents and senior brothers make mistakes, I should beat them and punish them. This is the only way to solve the problem.']

The Crown Prince, Qi Yue and the Princess: !!!

Qi Yue and the eldest princess were particularly shocked. After all, they had never met anyone who dared to interpret the words of the sage in such a confusing way.

But the prince quickly calmed down. After all, he had been baptized by Yuanruan's interpretation of "Qiu Yu", so his resistance was much stronger.

At the same time, the prince also chuckled, so the Mohist theory is a bit naive and not suitable for official learning. Because even the disciples who study Mohist theory find it difficult to meet the requirements of Mohism, such as treating everyone equally, everyone is equal, etc.

Yuanruan:!!!

The system continued: [However, Ah Ruan, it is not surprising that he would do this, because before he became a disciple of Tian Langjun, he also studied Guiguzi's theory for a period of time. ]

Yuan Ruan understood: [You have learned Guiguzi. That's not surprising. After all, Guiguzi's thinking is really rebellious. I remember he has a theory that only by learning to 'think in reverse' can you more easily gain advantages and success in action. Tonger, you see, isn't Sun Langjun quite good at finding loopholes by thinking in reverse.]

System: [Right, right, right. And then, ever since Mr. Tian became your fanatic and began to believe in you, this disciple Sun’s mentality collapsed.]

Yuanruan never thought that this had something to do with her.

She was stunned for a moment: [Ah?]

System: [It's true... Although this disciple Sun likes the theories of Mohism, he hates the idea of ​​ghosts and gods. And because Tian Langjun used to think he was a disaster star, he basically didn't worship ghosts and gods, so he always thought that Tian Langjun and he were the same kind of people. As a result, Tian Langjun began to believe in you, and Sun Langjun rebelled, and tried to persuade Tian Langjun not to be feudal and superstitious. When Tian Langjun heard that he didn't respect you, he drove him out directly.]

The prince clenched his fists: It would be fine if you didn't believe in Ninth Sister, but you actually dared to speak rudely to me.

The eldest princess was also very unhappy when she heard this. She waved her hand again, ready to ask the butler to drive the man away.

Yuan Ruan was somewhat helpless when he heard this: [Ah? Just because he didn't believe in me? He was chased away by Tian Langjun? This...actually it doesn't have to be like this.]

System: [Haha, I think he deserves it. Then, when he got out, he was preparing for the imperial examinations. He had no money, and his situation got worse and worse. Now he finally had a good meal, but he was able to have a hot meal only because of your face. After all the twists and turns, it was still you. He was naturally embarrassed when he saw you, so he avoided your gaze. Hahahaha...]

Yuan Ruan understood immediately: [So that's how it is. ]

The system is ready to fight: [Ah Ruan, how about giving him some shock from the thunder method, so that he will regret not following Tian Langjun to believe in you, and make him embarrassed. ]

Yuan Ruan was helpless: [No, no, there is no need. ]

System: [Indeed. I read his gossips and he is quite ordinary, not worth Ah Ruan's efforts. For example, after this meal, he said goodbye to everyone and lived on his own, but his life was full of ups and downs, and he failed the imperial examinations many times, and relied on others for help. When he reached middle age, he was too embarrassed to eat for free, so he ran to a small shop in the north to work as a carpenter. Later, he got married and had children. He had no money, so he studied small toys to sell for money, and then he returned to the water bird. ]

Yuan Ruan paused: [Wait! What did you say you restored? ]

The system was a little puzzled: [It's just... a water bird, a small toy. ]

Yuan Ruan was stunned: [This thing is amazing. I remember when I was searching for folk crafts, I saw a description saying that when Einstein first saw it, he praised this thing as being good, like a perpetual motion machine.]

Prince: !!!

His eyes fell on Sun Langjun again, staring at him so hard that he didn't dare to eat.

System: [But there is no perpetual motion machine. Ah Ruan, it is just some chemical reactions of special liquids, such as alcohol. Speaking of which, the filigree inlay craftsmanship he personally carved for his son and daughter-in-law in order to save money is more worth mentioning.]

Yuan Ruan: [I know, I just wanted to say that he is very skillful... What, what did you say, he also knows how to do filigree inlay?! Is it the exquisite craft that "sprouted in Yan and Zhao, established in Liao and Jin, and flourished in Ming and Qing"? ]

Yuan Ruan couldn't help but hold her face when she said this.

System: [Yes.]

Yuan Ruan's eyes locked onto that person again: [Tong'er, this person is very good! He is indeed a disciple of the Mohist school. Tong'er, if you want to sell anything at a high price, the most important thing is that it looks good, absolutely beautiful, and is art! Such a ready-made art master cannot be missed. Come on, let me show him my skills.]

System: [Great! ]

The prince quickly hugged Yuan Ruan. Don't be in a hurry. Many of the men here have wet hair and there are water stains on the ground. If you don't control the direction well, you might get hurt.

Moreover, the prince believed that this person had obvious shortcomings and there was no need for the ninth sister to take action personally.

Then, the prince looked at Yuan Ruan and whispered, "Ninth sister, why are you always looking at that person? Is there anything wrong?"

Yuan Ruan was startled when she heard this. Many excuses and reasons came to her mind, but after thinking about it, she decided to tell the truth: "Brother Crown Prince, some people say that man is good at filigree inlay craftsmanship. I want to pay him to make glass."

The prince brought Yuan Ruan back and said with a smile, "So that's how it is. Don't worry, Xiaojiu, I will take care of it for you later."

Yuan Ruan saw that the prince was determined, and the eldest princess also pulled Yuan Ruan over to talk about glass. Yuan Ruan nodded, thanked the prince, and followed the eldest princess.

Before long, the eldest princess negotiated the first sponsorship list with the civilian students.

Pei Langjun led everyone in a grand ceremony before leaving happily.

Sun Langjun, who had been keeping a low profile in the middle, silently looked at his happy companions. He began to move slowly outward, and finally, he moved out of this big circle.

Sun Langjun looked at his companions' brisk steps for a long time, with reluctance in his eyes.

But he still had his dignity, and he couldn't live on Yuanruan with a clear conscience.

What a pity...

He said softly, "I'll come back to repay you for this meal when I make some money in the future."

After saying this, Sun Langjun turned around and then stood still.

Because in front of him appeared a familiar eunuch with delicate skin and no beard, and behind him followed a row of sturdy palace guards.

The eunuch said in a shrill voice, "Mr. Sun, the Crown Prince heard that you are skilled in filigree inlay and you can pay me on a daily basis. How about repaying the favor of a meal with your filigree inlay?"

Sun Langjun was a little confused: ...

But thinking about the daily salary and having money to eat, he nodded poorly.

…

Afterwards, the emperor heard the prince's report on the relevant matters and, with a stroke of his pen, allowed commoner students in need to enter the Imperial College and Yuanxue in advance.

Although the academy does not provide meals, it provides free hot water and warm rooms, which once again makes the civilian students grateful.
