Soon, the sensation regarding the Thirteenth Young Master's memory gradually faded. After all, the strength of a person's memory could not make up for his shortcomings.
Now it's replaced by something else.
At this time, the Thirteenth Young Master was at a critical juncture in his life, which was about how he should grow up in the future and what kind of nominal career he should pursue, be it a scholar, a civil servant, or something else.
As for why it is a nominal profession, it is also very simple. No one thinks that the Thirteenth Young Master will take on a profession, nor will they let him do it. They just need a nominal one. Simply put, it just sounds better. To put it more simply, it is a matter of face.
Of course, this decision was made by his parents, and this problem was also a headache for Ye Chengtian and his wife. They didn't know how to deal with it.
Considering the Thirteenth Young Master's memory, it is not difficult for him to become a knowledgeable scholar, although he may not be able to tell others what he knows.
However, for Ye Chengtian and his wife, they did not need him to tell others anything, so they invited a famous scholar to teach the Thirteenth Young Master.
Just like that, a strange thing happened. After teaching for a while, the great scholar immediately resigned to Ye Chengtian and his wife, asking them to find someone else, because he was not capable enough to teach the Thirteenth Young Master.
At first, the couple thought that the Thirteenth Young Master was too dull and could not be carved, so the great scholar was unable to do the job, so they had to invite another one, this time also a very famous scholar.
This time it was even faster. In less than three days, the scholar made the same request and asked the Ye family to find another expert.
Several people continued to try, but none of them could hold on, and the time was getting shorter and shorter. The last one only lasted half a day, and then he said something to the couple with a look of fear on his face, as if he was still in a state of collapse.
Your Excellency is a genius, I cannot teach him, I think only God can do that in this world.
This situation made Ye Chengtian and his wife realize that something was wrong. No matter how stupid they were, these scholars clearly knew the situation before they came, so they must have had corresponding countermeasures and should not have withdrawn in less than half a day.
Besides, under normal circumstances, the scholars who come later in the class are getting stronger and stronger, and their persistence time should be getting longer and longer. Why is it that on the contrary, it is getting shorter and shorter?
So, with this confusion, Ye Chengtian and his wife went to ask the Thirteenth Young Master, wanting to know what had happened between him and those scholars that caused them to have such strange expressions.
You don't know until you ask, and you'll be shocked when you ask. After getting the answer to the question, Ye Chengtian and his wife immediately gave up the idea of continuing to invite scholars, and also no longer required the Thirteenth Young Master to become a nominal scholar.
…
"Thirteenth Young Master, today let's first learn about the origins of the continent. Before the Divine Calendar, there were no living creatures on earth. God descended into this world, gave life to the earth, and created intelligent life forms like us humans, elves, dwarves, orcs, and so on."
"Among all races, we humans are the closest to God, because God created and discovered us based on His own prototype. Therefore, we are the most intelligent of all races..."
When the scholar proudly spoke of the superiority of his race, the Thirteenth Young Master who was listening on the side was stunned for a moment, and then made a statement.
"Humans weren't actually created by God. That's just a myth. Humans evolved from apes. That's what the theory of evolution says."
The scholar no longer wanted to know what the theory of evolution was. He was just shocked by the Thirteenth Young Master's remarks, which were a kind of questioning of God, so he immediately began to correct him.
But when he corrected him, when he said that one cannot question the existence of God, the Thirteenth Young Master raised another question: Why can't one question it? Have you ever seen God? Are you sure that God really exists?
This made the scholar pack up his tools and leave immediately. He was afraid that if he continued, he would get himself into trouble.
The next few scholars also encountered similar situations. For example, the thirteenth young master said that the earth is not flat, but a sphere, but this sphere is too big to be felt.
Also, he said that the sun is a huge fireball called a star, and we all revolve around the sun, but it is not the sun that revolves around us.
There are many, many things. To the people in this world, these things completely overturn the existence of God. If the church knew about this, they would immediately launch an attack to punish the perpetrators. Even if it was a child's innocent words, the news would still be known.
So, after learning about this situation, the scholars immediately left as they did not want to get into trouble.
After knowing this, Ye Chengtian and his wife changed their expressions and unanimously decided not to invite scholars anymore. If the Thirteenth Young Master came up with some shocking theories again, that would be disastrous.
However, they were very curious about one thing - "Chengtian, where do you think he knows all this messy stuff? He has never left home since he was a child?" Long Anqi was very confused. Due to his special condition, his youngest son had never left the Ye residence and it was impossible for him to come into contact with these messy things.
"Yes, from childhood to adulthood, besides us, there are only a few maids taking care of him, and the other one is..." Ye Chengtian was also confused, and as he spoke, he thought of a possibility.
"Ye Lanyu!!"
"What?" Little Blue Rain looked at her parents in confusion. She noticed that her parents seemed to be very upset, so she wondered what she had done wrong today.
"You little troublemaker, you're usually cunning, but why did you tell your brother all those nonsense? You knew he couldn't tell truth from falsehood, and he would believe whatever you said."
"What?" Xiao Lanyu didn't understand, and what she didn't understand was, what exactly are you talking about?
It was obvious that she had lied to her brother more than once.
However, after she knew the whole thing, she said something with certainty -
"Dad, Mom, I really won't do that this time!!"
This incident caused Ye Chengtian and his wife to temporarily abandon the scholar training plan. In the future, they will let the Thirteenth Young Master read books on his own to avoid shocking public opinion.
For this purpose, they also specially collected a lot of books, including all kinds of books. Of course, there were absolutely no books containing "reactionary remarks" among them.
Since he failed as a scholar, he would try something else, namely, to become the lord of an empire. This was something he would have to do sooner or later. Although he might not be the one to take the position personally, there would be someone from the Ye family to assist and watch over him.
