Suddenly, a unified voice rang out from behind, "It's Prince Yuansheng!"
"Long live the Prince!"
"Your Highness, please take care!"
Xiao Zhixing turned around and laughed, "There will be plenty of roast chicken. When the harvest is plentiful, I will come to visit you all again! We'll eat the new rice and have a continuous feast!"
"Very well, Your Highness, it's a deal!" the crowd responded excitedly.
The farmers will never forget that they lost to Prince Yuansheng, yet their faces were flushed with pride, and they even got to eat roast chicken personally bestowed by the prince.
Xiao Zhixing came over simply to show that he valued the matter.
Those in positions of authority must demonstrate and influence those below them through their own actions.
What you do and how you act are all signals, telling them what they should do.
Those in positions of authority do not need to consider what their subordinates think or feel, nor do they need to be led by the nose by their subordinates.
Instead, you should guide them, letting them guess, think, and ponder the meaning behind your actions.
"Master, Lady Murong has also arrived."
Xiao Zhixing had noticed long ago that the old man had been watching the battle the whole time. Had he finally broken free from Legalist thinking?
"The old gentleman has finally decided to leave the palace?" she teased as she walked over.
Murong Wanli snorted and turned to stroll along the clean and tidy path. "You little rascal, you've got me so engrossed that I can't eat or drink, trying to bribe me. You're truly despicable."
Xiao Zhixing followed him, pacing back and forth. "Alas, there's no other way. I'm eager to find talented people. This vast Northern State needs a wise and virtuous teacher to enlighten our minds. Now that you've come all this way, I naturally want to keep you here. I just don't know if you'll accept my bribe?"
Murong Wanli: "There's no reason to force it on someone."
"So, are you satisfied with the bribe?"
Murong Wanli was furious. "If you were my disciple, I would definitely beat you to a pulp!"
Xiao Zhixing smiled broadly, "That's what my master said too, but he never hit me. I'm his most prized disciple."
Murong Wanli: "..."
Finally, the old man, who had been forced to accept the bribe, arrogantly followed her to Beiyuan.
Xiao Zhixing immediately sent a message to Ji Baifei: "Master Murong has arrived. The Beizhou Forum is ready. We will also issue invitations to students from all directions to come to Beizhou for exchange and learning."
