Chapter 75: Abandoning office and going into business? ! (Please subscribe)
What is the purpose of becoming an official?
Zhang Zai of the Northern Song Dynasty once said: 'Establish a heart for the heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the people, carry on the unique knowledge for the saints, and create peace for all generations. ’
There is just a gap between ideal and reality.
Xia Zhibai’s original intention was good, but it was too unrealistic and too self-righteous. There were not that many saints in the world.
You can't become so many saints.
If everyone in the world can become a saint, what books about saints do we still need to read? How come there are so many complicated things in the world?
Xia Zhibai is too young.
He has never experienced the darkness and bleakness of society, nor has he experienced true despair, but after truly experiencing it, he can still maintain his original intention or ability to speak so openly.
Xia Zhibai is not qualified now!
Li Shanchang, Mao Xiang and others looked indifferent. Xia Zhibai's words did not show any feeling to them. They had long passed the time of impulsiveness.
Now we only look at the pros and cons.
Guo Chong and Wu Gongda were thoughtful, but when they saw the indifferent ministers on the side, they quickly lowered their heads and regained their cold expressions.
Only Hua Lun and other newly promoted Jinshi were slightly moved, but their eyes only flickered for a few times and then quickly became depressed.
This is the current situation.
It's not something they can reverse.
However, they also secretly admired Xia Zhibai's courage and courage to say these words in front of all the civil and military officials.
Courage is commendable.
But that’s all.
Being in an official career, one is destined to learn to be tactful, too sharp, and have too high moral standards. In the end, one will only end up being unhappy everywhere.
Any tree that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind!
Xia Zhibai has read so many books, but he has forgotten this simplest truth.
Working for the country, but poor for one's own life.
What a fool does.
Xia Zhibai had a calm look on his face. He was not trying to change anything with his words. This was simply impossible. Those who share the same desires will win.
Nowadays it is different.
You won't get very good results.
But Xia Zhibai didn't mind, he just said it first, be polite before fighting. Only when he actually puts it into practice in the future can he be unfavorable.
There is motivation only when there is pressure.
The teacher once said that people will not make progress without pressure.
And he was not prepared to leave a way out for himself.
Because once there is a way out, it will be difficult to be diligent and courageous to move forward. There will be sorrow and blood everywhere, and it is just a thought to save the common people.
Xia Zhibai suddenly smiled.
The smile is bright and full of fighting spirit.
It seems that he is willing to compete with the entire world with his own strength. This attitude can be felt by everyone present, and their expressions can't help but change slightly.
Zhu Yuanzhang took a deep look at Xia Zhibai.
He now understands that he still underestimated Xia Zhibai. He is a true man with lofty ideals, who has great ambitions and dares to be the first in the world.
He never leaves himself a way out.
Or die.
Or move forward.
But Xia Zhibai takes himself too seriously. This is his world. If he doesn't allow it, Xia Zhibai's determination will be meaningless.
Zhu Yuanzhang said indifferently: "Our Ming Dynasty has its own rules for recruiting scholars, and we always want to trust our Ming Dynasty's ministers."
"This matter does not need to be discussed further."
< br>He waved his hand to stop this topic.
Xia Zhibai nodded slightly and continued: "The third question: I dare to ask if your majesty still has the ambition to swallow thousands of miles like a tiger and aim at the world."
Zhu Yuanzhang said with arrogance: "Of course we have it." The Ming Dynasty will continue to build on the past and make further progress to achieve the prosperity of the country and the prosperity of the world. "A hundred years of great achievements are just the prelude."
"The Ming Dynasty is now. It is difficult to restore China's past glory. The common people do not like the current path of the world and are determined to find another way."
"Xia Zhibai does not seek fame in one life, but seeks prosperity for eternity."
"What the common people said today is from the bottom of their hearts."
"The common people also know that all the officials and your majesty are aware of it. It is difficult to convince, so the common people are brave and willing to be the first business official recognized by the imperial court. "
"I am willing to lead a broader path for governing the world with one person's heart."
< br>“It is better to say a hundred than to do one.”
"The grassroots people are willing to be the pioneers of the world, blazing an alternative economic path for all people, for the world, and for China."
"Different from the past, when the country advances and the people retreat, it is also different from the past. The goal is for the country to Make the people rich and strong."
"The grassroots want to prove that what I said today is not empty talk, but that you can actually implement it and benefit all people."
"The common people only wish."
"When the common people retreat, facing the local people, they can proudly say that the country they trust and the officials they trust have lived up to their expectations and trust."
"Their choice was not wrong."
"I can also proudly tell the scholars that because of their trust in the people, the people in this land no longer have to endure hunger, cold and oppression."
"Their country is extremely powerful!"
"If I, Xia Zhibai, fail to do it, or if my attempt fails, then please, your majesty, take my life directly."
"I, Xia Zhibai, Zhibai has no regrets.”
"I will never regret it."
"As long as a person lives, he will either be criticized by thousands of people, or he will leave his name in history. I, Xia Zhibai, am willing to be the leader of a new path in this world."
Full There was dead silence. As Xia Zhibai's voice fell, everyone was so shocked that they couldn't even believe what they heard.
Xia Zhibai wants to give up his great future and become a 'businessman' that is laughed at by the world, but he will try to be the first.
According to what he showed, it is certain that he will become the number one scholar. According to the promotion path of the Ming Dynasty, he only needs to polish his skills in the Hanlin Academy for a few years before he can be transferred to another place to become an official, and then one step up in the next few years.
Promoted to the court.
How dare he give up such a prosperous road?
Hua Lun whispered from the side: "Xia Zhibai, are you crazy? Do you know what you are talking about? Even if you have different ideas, you can go after becoming an official, why are you so decisive? ”
“You are confused!”
He was really anxious.
Xia Zhibai's words shocked him very much, and he also knew that Xia Zhibai was not really arrogant before, but had his own firm beliefs.
He has a great heart.
But because of this, Xia Zhibai cannot give up his official position easily, otherwise, how can he really achieve anything with the strength of one person?
Lian Zining was also stunned.
He looked at Xia Zhibai blankly, but only felt deeply ashamed.
Others also looked shocked.
They don’t believe in business officials. Businessmen are businessmen, and officials are officials. How can they be so confused and blended.
Once he got involved with a lowly businessman, Xia Zhibai's life was completely ruined.
The gain outweighs the loss.
Zhu Biao also looked moved.
He originally thought that Xia Zhibai was just passionate, but he was just paying attention to his words, but in his heart he was becoming more and more contemptuous of Xia Zhibai.
But with Xia Zhibai's words today, he suddenly realized that all of them had underestimated Xia Zhibai. He had a gap in his heart and had already planned his way forward, taking part in the imperial examination and even the palace examination. .
They all have one purpose.
Tell the world what you think.
He intends to use his own efforts to find a new path for the world, which is what he calls science and the future.
Zhu Biao was in awe.
Whether Xia Zhibai succeeds or fails in the end, he dares to do this, and his courage and courage have surpassed most people in the world.
He is not as good as him.
Li Shanchang and Zhao Hao were also stunned.
They looked at Xia Zhibai blankly, a little unresponsive. They originally thought that Xia Zhibai was preparing to set off a new political turmoil in the court.
The result is not.
He has no intention of fighting in court.
He is truly dedicated to serving the people.
I don’t care even if I take off my official clothes.
Then Li Shanchang sneered. After all, he was still too self-righteous. Do he really think he could accomplish something with his passion?
If things were so easy to do in the world, not only a few people would succeed.
The worm shakes the tree, not overestimating its own capabilities.
This person is nothing to be afraid of!
Li Shanchang came to a conclusion in his mind.
Tang He looked at the ground without any expression, as if he had not heard this, and showed no expression at all.
"Shang Guan?" Zhu Yuanzhang frowned. He looked at Xia Zhibai suspiciously, chewing on this new word repeatedly, with a hint of vigilance and wariness in his eyes.
He couldn't trust Xia Zhibai.
However, Xia Zhibai did not want to become an official in the court, which made him quite happy.
Now it suits him.
"Why should we believe you?" Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Xia Zhibai and said coldly.
Xia Zhibai shook his head, looked directly at Zhu Yuanzhang, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty does not trust me, but the people living on this land."
"I just want to use Let me tell your majesty what has actually happened, and tell the officials that following the old path of the ancients is wrong, and it is a big mistake."
"The world is changing all the time."
"Government. The way is to keep pace with the times. Managing a country is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat, and you will truly have an impact on the world. ”
"They are the people at the bottom!"
"Do you really think you can do it?" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were full of contempt.
Xia Zhibai said: "You have to try."
"Maybe the road is tortuous, but the future must be bright. If you don't even have the heart to try, then that's the truth. "
Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly.
He had his hands behind his back, his eyes were uncertain, and he couldn't make up his mind. Xia Zhibai's sudden decision was completely unexpected.
It also disrupted some of his arrangements.
Just when he thought about the things Xia Zhibai took out, he couldn't help but think that maybe agreeing to Xia Zhibai would be a way to do it.
The right of life and death rests with you.
Think about it.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded: "Since you have such ambitions, why not if we fulfill your ambitions?"
"Let me say something ugly beforehand. If you dare to bully the people and bribe officials, we will never do it. If you have any mercy, if you disturb the order of the world, I will directly use your head to calm the chaos."
He doesn't care about anything.
As long as it affects the Ming Dynasty's rule over the world, let alone a small Xia Zhibai, he will kill even the generals of the three armies and important officials of the court.
He was never afraid of killing people.
I never care about so-called rumors.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your permission."
From bottom to top.
Forcing the Ming Dynasty to reorganize its structure!
