The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 1068

[Chapter 1068 Only those who are distinguished and educated can be considered human beings]

Emperor Chu looked at his son, and in a daze, he felt that he was extremely strange.

He had never thought deeply about the things he just said, and not many people in the entire court had even thought about them.

Many people just think that if they work hard in life, they will definitely succeed.

After ten years of hard study, once you are named on the gold medal list, you will be a good person among people.

But has anyone ever thought about how many people can persist in studying hard for ten years?

Even those so-called children from poor families are not truly poor compared to the real children from poor families

. Moreover, besides studying, there are many ways to achieve success in this world. Not only studying can lead to success, but for most people in this world As far as humans are concerned, other paths are also blocked.

If you want to start a business, you must first have capital. How do you get this capital?

If you want to practice martial arts, it is even more impractical. Practicing martial arts costs much more money than studying.

Can you say that these people are not living a good life because they don’t work hard?

What’s more, even if someone doesn’t want to work hard and just do their part, they can still live a good life. After all, there are so many distinguished people in the world who can live a luxurious life without doing anything. life.

But what about the reality?

Poor people need to do not only the things they are expected to do, but also the extra things. They have to work hard to do something just to make a living.

Are these normal?

Emperor Chu rarely thought about these issues before. That is, when he was on patrol, he saw those farmers and listened to what Fang Xiu said, so he thought about it.

However, these are extremely advanced things, and it is not very simple to solve this problem.

Hao’er can understand it, at least initially, and understand some of it. Isn’t this enough?

Emperor Chu took a deep breath, tried his best to calm down his emotions, looked at Hao’er, and asked: “Who taught you these words?”

Zhao Hao replied: “Master just said that hard work may not be effective. Others, The son came up with it himself.”

Emperor Chu asked again: “Then how do you know that children from poor families have to work for their parents at a very young age?”

Zhao Hao said: “This is not easy for us. Many eunuchs and maids in the palace were sent to the palace because their families were too poor to support them.

Otherwise, who would want to serve others, unless they were their own relatives? You want to serve others.”

Emperor Chu and Concubine Shu were startled again when they heard this.

Concubine Shu was stunned because she had never thought about these issues. After hearing Hao’er’s words, she thought that the maids and eunuchs beside her were all children of other people!

From the perspective of some exempted people, there is no difference between them and themselves, just because their families are too poor.

They were not born to serve others,

but Emperor Chu thought of more.

Having a sympathetic heart is what a king needs.

Not to mention many emperors, many of the princes above the court may not be able to empathize with ordinary people.

Even in the eyes of some people, only scholars can be considered human beings.

Those poor people, those farmers, those small traders, those working the clock, are not even human beings in their eyes.

This is especially true for many kings.

This is not their responsibility, it is because they enjoy something that others may not pursue in their lifetime.

They have no contact with the lives of poor people at all, so how can they understand this and empathize with them?

If you don’t have empathy, how can you be a king?

There are many foolish kings in history because they have no empathy!

Even I only have some empathy when I reach a certain age. Even so, I may not actually know much about the lives of poor people.

However, in the entire Chu State, nobles and scholars only accounted for a minority, and the poor people who Hao’er said would starve to death if they didn’t work were the majority!

Listening to Zhao Hao’s words, Emperor Chu didn’t know what to say for a moment.

At this time, Zhao Hao said again: “Moreover, there are many classmates in the Liberal Arts College, who are what the ministers call children from poor families. Without a master, they would not be able to read a book in their lifetime, let alone change. Erchen knew this from

them

. Erchen also went to their home with a good friend.

At that time, Erchen realized that not every family could live like Erchen now.

“

To live in such a house, many people, even in places like Kyoto Prefecture, can only live in very simple thatched huts. In winter, it is extremely cold, and their faces are scarred by the cold.”

At this moment, he seemed to remember something, his eyes sank, and he said: “Erchen knew that his life was first-class in the world, but he never thought that Erchen’s life was not only first-class, but also different from those of others. Compared with his classmates, Erchen was living in heaven.

Erchen used to like to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake, but he never thought that many children from poor families might not be able to eat a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake that Erchen ate. Arrived.

In fact, the meal I ate casually was enough for many poor families for more than ten days, or even their expenses for a month or even half a year. Every time I thought about this, I would say “

Speaking of this, Suddenly she choked up and couldn’t speak anymore. When

Concubine

Shu heard this, her expression became a little dazed.

No wonder Haoer always refused to eat these days, and even when she did eat, she always ate very little.

She likes to eat things such as mutton, but rarely eats them recently. It is for this reason that

Concubine Shu felt a little ashamed in her heart, and her face was burning with pain.

As a mother-in-law, she was not as good as her own children. .

On the side, Emperor Chu was shocked again. There was a wave of confusion in his heart. He wanted to speak, but he couldn’t say anything.

Because of these reasons, he told Prince Ning and Prince Kang. I don’t know how many times I have said it, I want to let them know what their own lives are like, I want to let them know what the lives of poor people are like, I want to teach them to have a benevolent heart.

He thinks that what he teaches is quite good. , but various events later proved that King Kang and King Ning didn’t take it to heart at all, but now Hao’er rarely taught him these things, but

he

understood them on his own.

He is still so young!

Emperor Chu was still shocked. Before Zhao Hao finished speaking, he continued: “It is precisely because of this that I understand something.”
