Wu Zhao's words immediately caused many students to be shocked.

Just walk away when things can't be done?

Isn't it time to face the challenge head on?

"I cannot agree with Princess Ming's concept." The Master's face also turned red. "If everyone gives up when they think that something is impossible, how can we talk about development and patriotism?"

Giving up is an idea that needs to be criticized in today's mainstream thinking.

In such an unprecedented era, we should forge ahead bravely and face challenges head-on.

"Master, what you said is correct." Wu Zhao smiled softly even in the face of the Master's doubts. "But some things cannot be achieved without giving up. Wu Zhao just asked the Master, if an illiterate farmer's heart for the country and the people can reach the top of the heart-searching monument, can he become a prime minister?"

“.”

The Master's brows were already furrowed, and he understood what Wu Zhao wanted to express.

Finally, I could only say helplessly.

"Of course not."

"If a soldier is willing to sacrifice himself for the country, can he become a general?" Wu Zhao asked again.

"Of course not." The Master did not wait for Wu Zhao to ask again, and continued, "I know what you mean. You think that Cheng Jiang's work is beyond his ability, so he should give up."

Just a few words made many students around fall into deep thought.

I just feel that the current discussion has gone beyond the matter itself.

"Not only that." Wu Zhao continued, "If he is allowed to continue, not only will the conflict intensify, but it will also arouse public resentment, which is contrary to his wishes. The evil spirits that have been swarming here for the past three years are enough to prove this. Therefore, giving up is the best choice, which is beneficial to both him and the people."

If we have to talk about fault in this matter, it is naturally the fault of these unruly people.

But the only solution was to let Cheng Goudan leave sadly.

This is really against everyone's moral concepts.

However, they also had to admit that in this situation, if Cheng Goudan insisted on staying here, it would not only fail to resolve the incident, but would make it worse.

This tearing apart of facts and ideas made everyone feel extremely uncomfortable.

It's like... even if you are full of passion, you can't judge whether what you do is right or wrong.

The Master sighed, looked at everyone slowly, and said, "Now in our Great Tang, the laws are strict, and there are also underworld supervision. The number of people doing evil has been decreasing year by year, almost to zero. However, the situation in various places has become more and more complicated. The matter here is just one of them, and it is difficult to judge right and wrong. This assessment is to let you students know that books cannot explain everything in the world."

Today, the main contradiction in the Tang Dynasty is transforming from the original external contradictions and the contradiction between corrupt officials and the people to the contradiction between the increasing material level and the backward quality of the people.

It is a special period of contradiction transformation with no precedent to follow.

But Shen Yi doesn't care much about these, because these are issues of internal development of civilization. As long as the general direction does not change, it will always move forward little by little through constant exploration.

Shen Yi's focus is still on Wu Zhao.

From beginning to end.

Wu Zhao always looked at this matter from a detached perspective, and the moral issues that troubled other students and even teachers did not cause her any obstacles.

See the big picture from the small.

If this village is compared to a world, then Wu Zhao's attitude and Shen Yi's attitude are highly similar.

If you can save them, save them. If the fault is not his but theirs, then there is no need to be obsessed.

"I just gave him some guidance." Ding Xiang shook her head and chuckled, "This child is not bound by means, and has goals and bottom lines. Moreover, he has a careful mind and is very adaptable."

"It does seem so." Shen Yi nodded and sighed, "It seems that training from a young age can also be a direction for us to expand the association's members."

Wu Zhao is only thirteen years old now, but her personality and thinking are already incompatible with the people around her, and even with this era.

She does not have the kindness and soft-heartedness of an ordinary little girl, nor does she have the respect for authority, and is not bound by moral concepts.

If you were to be in this world, you would either be the only one who is superior to others, or be defeated by others, die, or hide yourself.

However, if placed in an association.

That's just right.

The association needs members who can save the world. Starting with this goal in mind, they are already above the world.

No wonder Ding Xiang described her as a "surprise".

Shen Yi thought for a while and nodded.

"Since she has this potential, let's take her away. We will probably need to stay in this world for about two years. Dingxiang, you should teach her well during these two years."

The association is currently short of people, and as long as someone is suitable, there is no one who cannot be taken away.

What's more, Wu Zhao did have some potential.

"Yes." Ding Xiang naturally responded with a smile.

That night, all the students returned to school. The Tang Dynasty had now built concrete roads nearly a hundred kilometers away from Chang'an. Coupled with the production of rubber, the speed of horse-drawn carriages was greatly improved.

It only takes one or two hours to travel a distance of a hundred miles.

This was simply unimaginable in the past.

The world is changing more than that. Many conveniences in life have greatly improved people's living standards, such as ice making, heaters, and greenhouse vegetables. The world is changing so fast that not only the elderly, but even the young people feel overwhelmed.

However, Wu Zhao had already gotten used to it.

Back at the academy, a princess like her naturally had her own room, and she basically fell on the bed as soon as she got home. The maids who served her all knew that Princess Ming had a habit of resting after a certain time, no matter what, and she would not be woken up unless there was a major event like a fire.

But no one knows.

The reason why Wu Zhao was like this was simply because she could see her master in her dreams.

Although it was not seen every day and night, but that night, Wu Zhao's consciousness came to a place with beautiful mountains and rivers. Everything around her, including her own thoughts, was so clear.

Wu Zhao looked delighted.

If anyone else saw Wu Zhao's smile at this moment, they would definitely be surprised. No one had ever seen Princess Ming smile so brilliantly.

It seemed as if at this moment, she was just an ordinary little girl.

"Master?" Wu Zhao looked around and found her master in a wooden house in front of her. Although she held back her joyful steps, she couldn't help but say in a tender voice, "Master, you haven't come to see me for a few days."

In front of her was naturally Ding Xiang.
