Chapter 684: High Ambition but Low Skill
When he said this, Fu Yucheng became even angrier: "I went to Yingchun Academy to learn some skills!"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's voice was as cold as ice: "What skills do you want to learn?"
"Learn... learn how to do things and manage people, so that you can take on responsibilities in the future."
When he said this, Fu Yucheng felt guilty and wronged: "But what's the use of me learning those farming, masonry, and carpentry jobs?"
"You want me to do this all the time?"
"You are deliberately seeking revenge!"
Fu Chen understood: "So you think learning these is too vulgar..."
"What is the current division of labor among the six ministries?"
Fu Yucheng knew this.
"The Ministry of Revenue is in charge of the country's money and grain; the Ministry of Works is in charge of agriculture and infrastructure; the Ministry of War is in charge of defending the territory, managing wars, conscription, and training; the Ministry of Rites is in charge of rituals, music, and sacrifices; the Ministry of Personnel is in charge of the promotion, demotion, assessment, and appointment of officials..."
Fu Chenan nodded.
"To break it down further, if you don't know the origins of cotton and silk, don't know about weaving, don't know about money and the market, how can you work in the Ministry of Revenue?"
"If you don't understand agricultural infrastructure, how can you get into the Ministry of Industry?"
"You can't lift anything with your hands, and you don't know how to plan strategies. How can you go to the Ministry of War?"
"You sneer at the court etiquette and laws, are unwilling to learn or obey them, and have no respect for the current crown prince and the emperor. Are you worthy of being in the Ministry of Rites?"
"And the Ministry of Personnel, you know nothing. How can you assess whether officials have falsely reported their achievements? Whether they have concealed anything? And how can you use this as a basis for fulfilling the official's duty to accept his appointment?"
Fu Yucheng was stunned: He...he didn't want to do such a thing at all!
His idea was very simple: enter Yingchun Academy, study hard and become a great scholar.
Then he entered the court, second only to the second person and above ten thousand people, and everyone flattered and admired him.
He can always give advice on state affairs, put forward many constructive suggestions, and save people from danger...
At this stage, it would be better if he could get along with the students in the academy and win over some of them.
In the future, he can rely on being a member of the Fu family and lead a group of obedient officials to be respected for everything he does, and Fu Chenan will not dare to look down on him anymore...
But who knew that Fu Chenan actually asked her to do carpentry, repair houses, and farm...
Which high-ranking official needs to do everything himself?
His hands were covered with blisters in just two days. He deeply suspected that Fu Chenan did it on purpose, and naturally felt angry and aggrieved.
Fu Chenan couldn't help but say with sarcasm: "Do you think you can be a good official without doing these things?"
"Or do you think that the court should give you a title of a prince, so that you can be respected wherever you go?"
Fu Yucheng: ...
His thoughts were suddenly exposed and he turned his head away in embarrassment.
Yes, Fu Yucheng was jealous.
Wei Xu, a prince of the previous dynasty, became the Emperor of Tianlang.
Ao Chengji was a man from another family and was given the title of Prince.
Huo Changsheng, that loser, could also walk before the emperor and attend court every day.
My mother can be given the title of Grand Princess.
Although my grandfather did not have a title, he was the object of everyone's admiration. The imperial doctors were completely open to him and accompanied him to improve his medical skills.
Only I have nothing.
He is obviously a member of the Fu family and a genuine royal family in the Tianwu Dynasty!
But he is just the "Second Young Master".
Many times he could feel the contempt of the palace maids and nannies.
If I were to be crowned a prince, would they still dare to look down on me?
Fu Zhonghai and Fu Chenan haven't mentioned this until now. They are looking down on me!
He wanted to work hard so that they would not look down on him, so he took the initiative to propose to study at Yingchun Academy.
But when I went to Yingchun Academy, I found out that instead of studying with great scholars every day, I had to do these rough jobs?
Or do you have to do it every day?
Naturally he was not happy.
Seeing Fu Yucheng's eyes flickering and not saying anything, Fu Chenan was so angry that he almost laughed.
"You want to be a prince, have you ever done anything for Tianwu?"
Fu Yucheng was not convinced: "Ao Chengji has not done anything!"
Fu Chenan replied immediately: "His father and grandfather died for their country! What about you?"
"Not only did you do nothing, you even ordered someone to assassinate me!"
"I'm being merciful by not killing you, and you actually want me to give you a title?!"
Fu Chenan almost laughed out of anger.
It was the first time Fu Siyan saw them quarreling like this, and she was so scared that she quickly apologized.
"Chen An, it's my fault. I didn't take good care of him. He hasn't been around since he was a child. I didn't protect him. It's my fault..."
Fu Siyan cried as she spoke, and this time Fu Chenan was so angry that he laughed.
He grabbed Fu Siyan's slender arm and dragged her in front of Fu Yucheng.
"This is your mother. Do you know what she has been doing day and night recently?"
Fu Yucheng knew something about this: "She's setting up an operating room? Teaching students medicine?"
"Then do you know why she did this?"
Fu Yucheng drew inferences from this and guessed what Fu Chenan was about to say.
"Are you trying to say that she did it for me?"
Seeing Fu Chenan nod, Fu Yucheng said as a matter of course: "She is my mother, isn't it her duty to do anything for me?"
Fu Chenan kicked him again: "It's not your mother's fault that you were stolen. It's your father's fault and the Yao family's fault."
"Your mother has been crazy and stupid for more than 20 years because of you. Now you are in your twenties. Your mother still worries about you?"
"You still think it's natural?"
"She really wants you to learn well and wants me to give you a chance, so she works so hard to do these things..."
"You are so good. You take everyone's kindness to you for granted. If they don't do what you want, they owe you something?"
"Is your brain full of shit?"
Fu Yucheng slid to the door sleekly, but was blocked by the threshold.
He didn't get up either: I was going to be beaten anyway, so why get up?
It's more convenient to lie down.
Fu Siyan covered her mouth and cried out.
She felt that Fu Chenan had touched the heart of her heart, and she felt sorry for her son getting beaten.
She was also worried that her son's life would become even more difficult after the brothers became enemies.
Fu Chenan took two deep breaths and pointed at Fu Yucheng.
"Forget it. Since you don't want to suffer the hardship of working anymore, letting you stay there would only spoil the whole barrel."
"Starting tomorrow, go to the library and copy books."
"Translate and copy all the books in the library into the Tianwu language."
There is a library in the palace, which stores a large number of books bought by Fu Chenan and Xiao Yingchun in modern time and space.
In order to popularize knowledge in the Tianwu Dynasty, the palace now has an important task: a large number of people are needed to translate.
Fu Yucheng comes from another world, so it is appropriate to entrust this matter to him.
Fu Chenan ran away, leaving Fu Yucheng and Fu Siyan behind.
Fu Yucheng looked at his mother whose face was covered with tears, and a strange emotion surged in his heart.
He lowered his head to hide his guilt: "Mom, I didn't mean it..."
Fu Siyan stepped forward and tried to support him, but he was too tall and strong to be supported by her.
Fu Siyan used all her strength to suckle, but Fu Yucheng didn't get up.
It was only when they got closer that Fu Yucheng suddenly realized that Fu Siyan was very thin, with fine lines at the corners of her eyes and a few white hairs in her hair.
She is old?!
Fu Yucheng was stunned, and he held Fu Siyan tightly with his backhand, completely shocked.
Fu Siyan was unaware of anything and asked someone to come up and help her.
The guard stepped forward and helped Fu Yucheng sit on the chair. Fu Siyan wanted to call the imperial physician to see the patient.
Fu Yucheng held her back: "I'm fine, no bones were broken."
Having been beaten so many times, he is now very experienced.
Fu Siyan was worried: "Are you really okay?"
Fu Yucheng: "It's really okay."
He vaguely knew that Fu Chenan still held back.
It's not because of guilt, but to save face for my mother...
Thinking about what Fu Chenan had just said, Fu Yucheng was at a loss: Was he really wrong?
Some people are adults physically but still teenagers mentally.
Fu Yucheng's personality... cough cough cough...
