Chapter 16: Preliminary Cabinet (#)
"Shut up! Stand down!" Stubin interrupted his disciple, he didn't want to make enemies with the people in the academy just after arriving at the academy. So far, the Academy of Athens has made a very good impression on Stubbin, and Stubin has already planned to stay at the Academy of Athens and observe slowly.
Stubin stepped forward and saluted, "This friend, I apologize for my disciple's rude behavior."
The white-robed young man at the head saw that Stubin was so polite and courteous, and he was not very aggressive. "You're welcome, the Kingdom of Danone has the rules of the Kingdom of Danone, and the Academy of Athens has the rules of the Academy of Athens. It's not that we're making things difficult for you, so don't get me wrong. ”
Hearing this, Stubin was surprised and said, "Oh? Is it the Duke of Essis that horses are not allowed to ride and drive in this Athenian Academy?"
The white-robed young man heard about it for the first time when he saw Stubbin, so he explained in detail: "This rule is not set by the principal, and it is actually not the rule of the academy. It is the spontaneous action of our students. ”
Steubin was puzzled, he didn't expect the students of the Academy of Athens to set rules for themselves, so he said, "But why are you like this? Wouldn't it be more liberating to have no rules?"
The white-robed young man shook his head, apparently disapproving of Stubbin's statement.
"Freedom has limits, and freedom without limits will only cause chaos, so we have to restrain ourselves and create a big freedom with countless small individual freedoms. Moreover, neither the president nor the vice president of the college are driving on horseback, so we, as students, should naturally work up and down. Therefore, we have specially formulated the decree of the Academy of Athens to regulate the life and behavior of each student. ”
Steubin couldn't help but freeze when he heard the words of the white-robed young man, but when he heard it, he objected: "I agree with what you said that freedom is limited, but it is too much to make a decree." Each of us is advocating freedom, and imposing restrictions will only cause rebellion, and we should educate everyone with morality. Let them know what's good and what's not. This is the way to cure the root cause. ”
"Desolation! This is not a cure at all, it is just wishful thinking. The white-robed man said loudly: "Although morality can play a certain role, it is just a tool for leisure fun. Once something about vital interests happens, it is not at all something that morality can control. That's why we have tough laws. As the saying goes, the flames are so hot that people are afraid to see them, so few of them are burned to death. If the water is weak, people will play freely, so there will be more people who drown. ”
Stubin looked thoughtfully at such a white-robed young man and asked, "In the next Stubbin, I haven't asked you yet?"
The white-robed young man regained his politeness and arched his hand and said, "In the lower Raul Piedemirit."
Stubin now understood, it turned out that this Demirit was a Raul faction who advocated rules and regulations, and he really had the style of a Raul faction.
Stubin nodded and said, "Hello Mr. Demirit, although I don't agree with your idea, I will abide by your rules. I would like to ask where is the dean of the college? I'm going to see you. ”
Demirit saw that Stubin was humble and courteous, and that he was willing to follow the rules, so he said no more. After pointing out the direction to Stubbin, he said, "The Headmaster, he is not in the Academy, you can go to the Vice Principal." After speaking, he nodded at Stubin and stopped stopping Stubin and the others, and left directly.
Stubin watched Demirit leave with the Raulists, and nodded secretly in his heart that this young man was really good. Then he turned back to his disciples behind him and said, "You all listen well, don't make trouble here, put away all the temper you used to have in the Danone Kingdom, if anyone makes trouble for me, then go back to the Danone Kingdom!"
Everyone said yes, not daring to disobey Stubbin's words.
On the way to find the vice principal, Stubin saw a lecturer lecturing in front of him, and dozens of people around him listened to him without a single noise; There were two sides arguing with each other, but there was only academic debate, no fighting; There are more people in threes and twos, silently studying knowledge and doing their own experiments.
By the time Stubin made his way through most of the teaching area and came to Zeno, he had already decided that he must stay. This is the real academy, the place to do learning.
Again, it wasn't just Stuobin who had such an idea, but any scholar would have such an emotion when he saw this scene. Because it was so far away from the real society, the Athens Academy seemed to have become a paradise for all scholars. As for the ignorant and barbaric real world outside, it is really not attractive.
As a result, the Athens Academy gathered more and more people, and its fame grew, and the Athens Academy, which originally had only one or two hundred people, expanded to more than a thousand people in just a few months. Originally, it was just some small contradictions, but in the fermentation of everyone, several school conflicts broke out.
This time, Allen's idea of forming a Privy Council happened to have a good place to transfer contradictions. The leaders of the various schools have prepared their own ideas and political opinions. In the face of such a lord of Corporal Lixian, it would be a lie to say that he was not tempted. Aren't these people working hard to learn and teach their children just to carry forward their own ideas? Faced with the temptation of Allen to form a cabinet, no one could resist.
So on a crisp autumn day with a mild sun, the leaders of these schools gathered at Allen's court, waiting for Allen's summons.
In the eyes of everyone's eager anticipation, this mysterious Duke of Essis, the headmaster of the Academy of Athens, finally slowly appeared. At this moment, there was a sudden breeze in the room, Zeno looked around suspiciously, the windows were closed, how could there be wind? After a closer look, it turned out that it was the airflow fluctuation caused by everyone inhaling at the same time.
Allen shocked everyone as soon as he appeared. In everyone's impression, this Duke of Essis, the founder and principal of the great Athens Academy, should be a middle-aged man in his thirties, even if he is not very old.
If it weren't for Allen's recent high position and the tragic battle, so he had a little more majesty and momentum, which was slightly in line with everyone's imagination, otherwise he would be a teenager who was less than twenty years old, no wonder these old men with an average age of nearly sixty years old exclaimed.
Alan ignored everyone's surprise, and got used to it anyway. When I used to hang out at the Academy of Athens, I was used to being surprised.
Alan came to everyone, coughed and cleared his throat and said, "So...... Let's get started, let me hear your thoughts. ”
The leaders of the various schools below unconsciously clenched their fists, and looked at their opponents with unkind eyes.
Eventually, Zeno was the first to stand up and say, "Then let me start with our Stoic claims."
