Capítulo 2133: Chapter 2130: For the Public, Not for Personal Gain
Chu Heng sneered: “Teacher, you exaggerated. Although I do think my lady is perfect in every way, I don’t wish to end up in prison. I still want to live many more decades with my family.”
“Then this…” Huo Zhengming breathed a sigh of relief seeing that he wasn’t angry.
He appeared to be afraid that Chu Heng would stubbornly go against everyone for Ye Muyu alone and end up killing himself.
Chu Heng saw it clearly and felt speechless. He had no idea when he beca soone who was so bewitched by beauty that he was unclear in mind.
It was precisely because he loved Ah Yu that he should live well.
He even wished he could live longer, a lifeti wasn’t enough, he wanted to continue for several more lifetis.
“You also know that although today’s students are knowledgeable, how many truly capable officials are there?” Chu Heng sighed helplessly.
Huo Zhengming nodded: “I understand what you’re saying. Could it be that the Emperor is dissatisfied with the current officials?”
“Teacher, I definitely didn’t say that, don’t you go spreading it.” How could Chu Heng admit to such words? Even if Emperor Xuanming wanted to use him to spread it and gain so reputation, the words couldn’t co from his mouth.
Huo Zhengming understood clearly after hearing this, wasn’t this exactly what he intended?
But smartly, he didn’t pursue the topic further.
Instead, he earnestly advised: “Zi Qiu, I agree with you being good to your lady, but… after all, your lady is a woman. If her reputation becos too prominent, it could be detrintal.”
“Teacher, with what you said, I’m even more determined to do these things.” Chu Heng said sternly, “Could it be that only n in the world can earn reputation while won can only stay in the backyard, supporting their husbands and educating their children?”
“Besides, won also have outstanding abilities. Not to ntion anything else, at least this talent shouldn’t be suppressed. This is a great benefit to the country and the people.”
Chu Heng seed to speak nonchalantly, but he was more serious than at other tis.
Just hearing Ah Yu talk about the freedom of that future world, he wasn’t yearning for it because Ah Yu was beside him, his family was here, this was his ho.
But he couldn’t bear to see Ah Yu being wronged, making her restrained even after coming to this Another World.
Now that his position wasn’t low, he could at least do sothing for the people, for Ah Yu.
Huo Zhengming was left speechless by his words and, after a long while, stroked his beard: “Zi Qiu, it’s the teacher who has been too conservative. If there’s anything you need, just let the teacher know.”
“Teacher, you’re in charge of the appointnts at the Ministry of Revenue. It’s an important place because the evaluation and appointnt of officials will keep you busy.”
The day’s event would inevitably have multiple shocks. The Ministry of Revenue was directly impacted, and it indeed needed to be busy.
Huo Zhengming wasn’t afraid of this. He just feared having nothing to do, shaking his head as he said: “It’s nothing, rest assured, I’ll pay extra attention.”
“You must pay more attention to your own safety. Before, I was worried you were truly striking a stone with an egg, but now I can finally rest easy.” Huo Zhengming advised him a couple of tis but didn’t say much more.
After all, he now saw clearly that who knows what bold things his student might do in the future. He just needed to know that whatever the student did, it was for the people, for the public and not for personal gain.
After leaving the residence, Chu Heng had soone deliver a ssage to Ye Muyu.
