Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Truth Is Cruel
The conversation with the dean gave Qin Lin a more comprehensive understanding of the situation in Jiangnan to a certain extent: Heavenly Court wanted to recover Jiangnan, but because of the agreement reached at the beginning, it would not take the initiative to come forward, so it reached an agreement with a certain high-ranking member of the military Holy Mountain on the grounds of dealing with the Qin family.
As a result, there is the current chaotic situation in Jiangnan.
"But aren't those people all climbing up step by step from ordinary people?" Qin Lin asked puzzledly, this was not the first time he had thought about this question, "Why did he have to be separated from ordinary people in the end, and at the cost of so many people's lives, could it be that Jiangnan didn't obey the dispatch of Heavenly Court, it wouldn't be Jiangnan of the Divine Domain?"
"If there is really an invasion of foreign enemies, Jiang Nan will still contribute to the Heavenly Court, isn't it just like the academy you founded that many people have already entered the court hall and become the pillars of the existence?"
The previous graduates of Xiliang Academy will have a great name in the Divine Domain and make outstanding contributions to the Divine Domain, which is already a consensus in the Divine Domain, so why is Heavenly Court still like this?
The dean smiled and shook his head, it's good to be young, it's always so tendonous to think about things.
"From the perspective of the higher-ups, no matter who Jiangnan is under the control, he can send talents to the Divine Domain. The dean began to solve his doubts, "The difference is that what kind of people Jiangnan accepts, there will be a different trend of thought. ”
"For example, the people who went out of the academy in the past naturally represent the outstanding young people of the Divine Domain, but more people will see my shadow in them. ”
"In the future, no matter what these people do or say, they will be labeled as academics. ”
"And the responsibilities and obligations they fulfill, for whatever purpose, will be invisibly connected to me, if not in the end. ”
"Do you understand that?"
How can you not understand, Qin Lin only now realized that his father's death was so complicated, it seems that his father should be the so-called 'academic faction', and there must be people who oppose the academic school in the military, so there will be a mysterious death of his father.
"As for the people's livelihood and suffering in your eyes, they can't see it, and they pretend not to see it when they see it. The dean said in a slightly mocking tone, "The so-called saying that it is taken from the people and what is given to the people is just a complete joke, which force have you ever seen really rejoicing with the people? Have you ever seen a prince and nobleman who really loved the people like sons?"
"The people, ordinary people, in their eyes are just a group of poor people who are exploited, and when they are used up, they have no value, and who cares about life or death?"
He originally thought that since there was a difference of opinion between Heavenly Court and Jiangnan, the contradiction should be resolved through dialogue, and that would be much more peaceful, and the advantage of this would be that even if there was a contradiction, it would be within a controllable range.
But this is too troublesome, and it does not show the majesty of some people, who want a hearty victory, a war that will kill the chickens and monkeys, so that those who are ready to move can put away their thoughts.
This is not only the truth of Jiangnan, but also the truest thoughts of the superiors.
Hearing such words from the mouth of the dean is indeed chilling, as a group of people who have risen from the ground among ordinary people, even if they don't benefit people, why should they ignore the happiness of ordinary people?
"But······· Dean ········"
Qin Lin had something to say, but when the words came to his mouth, he realized that something was wrong, and the truth should not be like this.
The dean saw what Qin Lin was thinking, as a person who had experienced all kinds of ups and downs, Qin Lin had nothing to hide in front of the dean.
"Why don't we take the initiative to compromise with Heavenly Court, choose a way that is more beneficial to Jiangnan, and guide the pattern of Jiangnan in a benign direction in the time to come, yes or no?"
This is indeed Qin Lin's inner thoughts, if this can be done, then it should be a relatively perfect ending. It not only satisfies the needs of the heavenly court, but also does not let the demands of the dean and others be disappointed, and the two sides play a game at another level without affecting the lives of ordinary people.
"Yes!" he said very directly what he was thinking, and this was what he thought was the most feasible way to go.
"If you can think of this, it proves that you still have some brains!" the dean nodded, agreeing with Qin Lin's idea, "But you have overlooked the most important and simple point, which is human nature. ”
"At the beginning of man, nature is good!"
From the moment a person is born into this world, everyone's heart is as pure as a blank paper, and it is the most perfect moment of a person, without any rendering.
However, in the process of growing up, a person will experience a variety of different lives, and will have his own different ideas and views on everything, which is also the formation of people's values and worldview.
Different experiences create different values, and different values create different people, which is why people are different from other species.
"This difference is also the embodiment of human nature!" The dean was quite emotional, he also said the same thing to Qin Jiange here back then, and now the person sitting next to him has been replaced by Qin Lin, "The person who can mix with the high-level of the Heavenly Court is an old fritter who has gone through countless ups and downs to get to the top, such a person, when you talk to him about 'at the beginning of people, nature is good', you are playing the piano to the cow." ”
"They have their own cognition in their minds, and this cognition will carefully analyze all your actions, and if there is even one sign of disobedience to them, it is against the 'will of heaven'. ”
"The only thing that really makes them sober is strong strength. ”
"Only when you're strong enough for anyone to look at them will they calm down and listen to your inner thoughts, otherwise, it's all just talk. ”
"According to your thoughts, it is true that a short period of time is the most beneficial situation for Jiangnan, but in the long run, people's greed will gradually make them lose patience, and in the end it will be a chaotic situation, maybe it will be worse. ”
Qin Lin quietly listened to the dean's analysis, combined with what he saw and heard, it is indeed the case, human nature is so complex and changeable.
"It's too easy for me to think!"
The dean has some good feelings about Qin Lin's move, and he will not be like some people, even if he knows that he is wrong, he will still hold on to the end.
Of course, as an old monster who has lived for countless years, he understands this kind of thinking and recognizes the existence of this kind of person, but the Tao is not the same, and recognition does not mean that you need to be in the same stream.
"Therefore, the situation in Jiangnan, in the final analysis, is still a contest of wills between the two sides, if the Heavenly Court wins, then the entire Divine Domain will know what the fate of disobedience to the Heavenly Court will be, and it will have an extremely good warning effect for them to rule the Divine Domain in the future; ”
"Hope is the best antidote in this world, as long as you don't give up hope, there will always be a day when the dawn comes. ”
"I firmly believe that ~~~~ will have that day. ”
The thunderclouds in the sky did not know when they had dispersed, revealing the sun obscured by the clouds, and the sun sprinkled on the body, which was extraordinarily warm, like a spring breeze warming people's hearts.
At this moment, Qin Lin was a little stupid, looking at the side of the dean, he suddenly felt that the dean was actually quite attractive, and he also wanted to see that kind of 'dawn'.
"For the sake of this belief, even if I know what Jiangnan is about to face now, even if I know what Jiangnan may face in the future, I still will not compromise and will not back down. ”
"Everything I do, I just want to have a clear conscience!"
This is a very simple word, you can say it with a touch of the upper and lower mouths, but it is too difficult to really put it into practice, how many people in this world can really ask themselves to be born in this world until now, can they have a clear conscience?
Maybe, but it's really rare.
