"External enemies can be defended, but internal traitors are hard to guard against!"
“Those people are clearly Chinese, enjoying the benefits provided by our Chinese people, yet one by one they refuse to think about our country and its people. They only think about currying favor with foreigners, not wanting to be Chinese, but only wanting to be foreigners’ dogs!”
"Shameless! Despicable! He deserves to die!"
...
Seeing Li Bingchen's indignant expression, Yun Duo silently handed him a glass of honey water with just the right amount of sweetness. After he finished it in one gulp, she asked, "What exactly happened? Why are you so angry?"
Li Bingchen slammed his cup down, his face full of anger, and said, "What else could it be? It's the thing you told me about last time, the education to help people become literate. Father has already agreed and has had a proposal submitted to the Co-Government Council, but all the representatives of the Co-Government Council, those puppets supported by foreigners, are all opposing it in some way."
"They spout lofty ideals and righteousness, saying they can't add to the burden of the people. I just don't understand, how is literacy and learning basic cultural knowledge a burden for the people? Where do they get the audacity to put on this air of concern for the country and its people and obstruct such beneficial policies?"
Yun Duo roughly understood why Li Bingchen was angry, and she couldn't help but feel a little indignant as well. However, she wasn't as angry as Li Bingchen because she had already guessed that such a thing would happen when she told Li Bingchen about it.
"This only shows that the masters behind those puppet families who occupy seats in the Co-governance Council are afraid of us Chinese."
"Reading opens up a person's wisdom, making them smarter and better at thinking. Most of us Chinese are more hardworking and more able to endure hardship than they are. If we are also smarter than them, I'm afraid that in less than two generations, China will be able to rise up and catch up with or even surpass the development pace of their countries."
"That's why they try every means to restrict us."
"But it doesn't matter, there are always more solutions than problems. We Chinese were able to rely on the power of the people to drive out the invaders, and naturally we can also rely on the power of the people to make our country stand up again and take flight like a dragon."
Li Bingchen was not comforted by Yun Duo's words. In fact, he was a little disheartened at the moment. He gave Yun Duo a mocking smile and said, "What's the use of us Chinese being so hardworking, so able to endure hardship, and so smart? With those traitors who only think about their foreign masters around, they will ruin any good things we do and give all the good things to their foreign masters. They have foreigners as their backers, and even my father can't do anything about them."
"This is so frustrating!"
"So, is there something else?" Yun Duo asked Li Bingchen.
“Hmm…” Li Bingchen nodded.
Yun Duo adopted a listening posture, but Li Bingchen found it difficult to speak, and his expression became somewhat inscrutable.
Seeing Li Bingchen's expression, Yun Duo's expression became somewhat subtle. Could it be what she was thinking?
However, Yun Duo did not speak first, but waited for Li Bingchen to speak to her.
Li Bingchen hesitated for a while before looking at Yun Duo and saying with a troubled expression, "They submitted a proposal to the Co-Governance Council to rely on foreign science and technology institutions to jointly study high-yield rice by utilizing advanced foreign science and technology and high-tech talents."
