Chapter 286

~4 min read 641 words

After hearing this sentence, Nian Duan's body couldn't help but shake.

Duanmu Rong also tasted the meaning of this sentence and couldn't help but mutter softly, looking at Su Xuan curiously.

This Yin-Yang School leader, the breadth of mind he displayed, exceeded their expectations.

After being silent for a long time, Nian Duan said, "Your Excellency Xuantian has a vast mind, Nian Duan admires!"

"In your hands, the Yin-Yang School might really be famous in the world!"

The Yin-Yang School of the past was brave and fierce, viewing all living things as ants. Although it was separated from the Daoist School, it was like the opposite of the Daoist School, not to mention extreme. But after Su Xuan succeeded as the leader of the Yin-Yang School, all this began to change.

This change is visible.

In the battle to destroy Han, the Yin-Yang School went to provide disaster relief, helping those common people at the bottom who were looked down upon by them in the past. Now, Su Xuan even ordered the Metal Department Elder to compile a medical book, intending to popularize it to the world.

Earlier, the agricultural instruments seen by the Six-Fingered Black Hero were also from the hands of the Yin-Yang School.

If they could be successfully improved, it would be enough to benefit countless farmers 980.

"With my own strength, perhaps I can change some things, but after all, human power has its limits, one person's power is thin!"

"I still have the same meaning as before, please come to help me!"

"Whether the Yin-Yang School can be famous in the world is not important. What is important is that the people of the world can benefit from it!"

Nian Duan was silent. Actually, after hearing Su Xuan's sentence "The way of the sage is no different from the daily use of the people," she was already moved. But after hearing Su Xuan's sincere words again, she did not rush to answer, but after deep thought, she asked Su Xuan another question, "You are different from many people of the Hundred Schools of Thought I have seen. I really want to know, why did you choose such a path?"

"Is such a path not good?"

"Promoting medical arts, then everyone has no suffering from illness. Improving agricultural tools, then the people have no suffering from hunger, and everyone can eat their fill!"

Nian Duan was silent again. Such a path, of course, is good. After learning Su Xuan's purpose, intending to implement the learning of the Yin-Yang School into the daily use of the people, she once thought of the predecessors of the Medical School, and thought of that ancestor of the Mohist School.

Such people, counting the world, are really too few.

Su Xuan was also silent for a while, sorted out the wording in his mind, and said, "In the past, in the Jixia Academy of the State of Qi, the Hundred Schools of Thought contended, arguing about the way of saving the world and governing the country. For the way of saving the world and governing the country, each school had its own insights, but in fact, there were differences. Their way of saving the country and governing the country was more aimed at the upper-class monarchs, and rarely cared about the lower-class people..."

"Mencius said: The people are the most important, the state is next, and the monarch is the least. Although Does Xun Zi also said: The monarch is the boat; the common people are the water. Water can carry the boat, and water can overturn the boat."

"They might really worry about the people, but apart from them, the rest of the Confucian School might not care about the life and death of the people at the bottom."

"Instead of talking big, it is better to do some practical things!"
