sn't this the result of your mistakes, that the people live like this”The moment these words were uttered, the swaying sedan chair fell silent.Silence and pressure descended upon him, and Su Jinpa onl...Chapter 434 Zheng Baorong Was Terrified

Mr. Mirror understood Su Jinpa's meaning.

Who has been the hardest to please throughout history

The most royal of all.

"Associating with a ruler is like walking with a tiger; it's dangerous because their intentions are unpredictable."

Although Master Jing has the support of scholars from all over the country, he doesn't want to completely offend Li Chen.

Su Jinpa delivered the steps to the two people's feet, and Li Chen was not too domineering.

He changed the subject and asked, "Sir, is this Guanhaishu Academy just inhabited by you"

"Yes, but in my spare time, I also allow nearby students who are eager to learn to come and teach. There is no fixed schedule, nor any fees charged; they come and go as they please, entirely of their own free will."

"The gentleman has three hermitages similar to Guanghai Academy scattered across the north and south. He spends most of the year traveling between these three places. Such tireless effort, is it all for the sake of teaching and educating students" Li Chen asked.

Mr. Mirror was not surprised that Li Chen could see this. He said, “That’s right, my greatest ideal is to teach all I have learned to everyone in the world. Unfortunately, one person’s power is always limited, so I can only do my best.”

Li Chen then continued, "Since that's the case, sir, have you considered having the imperial court take charge of setting up a school You and your disciples could teach together. This way, with the imperial court's channels and financial support, combined with your knowledge, scholars from all over the world would surely flock to it. Wouldn't that be a wonderful thing"

Mr. Mirror was taken aback. He knew Li Chen was tempting him, but faced with such temptation, he couldn't find the words to refuse.

Mr. Mirror frowned slightly, dubious: "This, I'm afraid, is not so simple."

But it's not that hard.

Li Chen seized Mr. Mirror's weak point and was unwilling to let him go easily. He said, "Mr. Mirror, your reputation is well-known throughout the land. You are considered a sage by scholars everywhere. Besides, with the support of the court, things would be much better than you traveling tirelessly between three places alone."

To be frank, our national strength is currently weak. However, I promise that during my lifetime, I will ensure universal education and make sure that every corner of Qin's territory will have literate citizens.

Even children from the village could attend private schools, as long as they were willing to study. The imperial court would be responsible for providing education and funding, dispatching teachers to private schools throughout the country.

But this requires a powerful nation, and more importantly, enlightened scholars like Mr. (Name), both are indispensable.

Li Chen's words made Mirror Master's heart skip a beat.

Just at this moment, the young attendant who had brought Li Chen over earlier shouted out crisply.

"Teacher, Magistrate Zheng Baorong of Weihaiwei has arrived!"

Zheng Bao Rong's arrival interrupted the two people's conversation.

Li Chen felt a little disappointed, but he didn't mind too much.

A man like Master of the Mirror certainly cannot be swayed with just a few words.

Those who can be easily swayed by empty promises are mostly the new recruits just entering the workforce. A sage like Mr. Mirror, with his worldly experience and profound understanding of human nature, wouldn't fall for such tactics unless something substantial was offered. It takes more than mere words to convince him.

Well, let's just talk to Zheng Baorong first.

With Mr. Mirror's consent, the boy ran out like a flying swallow to call Zheng Baorong in. In a short while, footsteps hurried closer, and Zheng Baorong came in from outside, led by the boy.

Bowing his head and bending his back, a corpulent man of great size clad in voluminous official robes walked in from outside. Without raising his head, he went straight to Li Chen and knelt down, tremblingly saying: "Your humble servant, Zheng Baorong, greets His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince."

As soon as Zheng Baorong arrived at Guanhai Academy, he was told that the person who would be asking him questions was the current Crown Prince.

This scared Zheng Bao Rong half to death.uan Shan Yue in their arms, caught up."Is it done" Li Chen asked."It's done."Sanbao nodded and said, "It's a road the couple walked together. They asked for it themselves, and they haven't suffered mu...
