Li Zexuan felt a little dizzy after hearing Bruiser's words. It seemed like he could call him anything he wanted! But if he called him whatever he wanted, wouldn't it mess up the seniority?
In the end, Li Zexuan stopped thinking about it. He rubbed Iron Egg's head angrily and said in a muffled voice, "Call me by my original identity. Don't think too much. Go back and do your homework. Don't embarrass me in this week's exam."
"Oh!"
…
The next day.
Li Zexuan ate his breakfast and brought Iron Egg to school. Lan 'er, who had been playing truant recently, came along today. Of course, it wasn't because she suddenly liked to study, but because Li Zexuan "drove" a "luxury car" to school today. The little girl was still excited about yesterday, so she came along.
After Li Zexuan's' consolation 'the day before, Bruiser was no longer unhappy. The three of them chatted on and off in the car. Before long, they arrived at the Imperial College.
"Wow, whose carriage is this? It's so grand!"
"I don't know. This carriage is really big!"
"It should be Mr. Li's carriage. I know the driver. It's San Bao!"
The person who spoke was a student of the School of Mathematics.
Under the gaze of dozens of students, "Don't Touch Me" slowly came to the entrance of the School of Mathematics. The three of them got off the carriage one after another. The students in the school heard the commotion outside and ran out to take a look. They were shocked by the huge carriage in front of them.
"Hello, Mr. Li!"
"What a luxurious carriage!"
"It's even four-wheeled!"
"The interior of this carriage should be very spacious!"
"Sss ~ Little Xuan, where did you buy this carriage? It's even more luxurious than the carriages in the palace. I'll go up and take a look."
When Li Tai saw the carriage, he couldn't take his eyes off it. This little fatty didn't know how to be polite. He excitedly jumped into the carriage. After a while, a series of exclamations came from inside.
"Damn!"
"This stool is so comfortable!"
"The space here is so big!"
"Damn, there's even a latrine. Eh? There's a switch on the pipe?"
"Ah! Impressive, he actually went easy on him! "
Li Tai screamed inside for a while, then came down and said excitedly to Li Zexuan, "Xiaoxuan, uh, sir, where can I buy this carriage? I must buy one too. This carriage is just too perfect! "
"I can't buy it anywhere right now, but I should be able to buy it at the Strange Interest Pavilion soon! Go back to class! "
Li Zexuan said indifferently.
Li Tai's face was full of regret. He touched the carriage and reluctantly returned to the teaching house.
The rest of the students couldn't help but take a few more glances at this "luxury car" before returning to class.
…
The commotion caused by the carriage in the Imperial College was far from over. During the break between classes, students from other schools joined in to watch.
It had to be said that under the leadership of the Mathematics and Mathematics Department, the entire Directorate of Imperial College had started a three-minute class and a fifteen-minute break. If they didn't do this, there was no other way. The students would keep making a fuss. Now, the instructors of the other schools hated Li Zexuan to death.
"This carriage looks so luxurious!"
"I wonder what's inside. It would be great if we could go in and take a look!"
When San Bao heard this, she immediately opened her arms and shielded the carriage behind her like an old hen protecting her chicks.
"This carriage is so domineering. I want to ask my father to buy one too. Do you know where to buy one?"
The person who spoke was obviously from a wealthy family. He didn't even ask for the price, only where to buy it.
"I've never seen this before. But since this carriage is from Professor Li, he probably knows about it."
"I know, I know where to buy it!"
"Wang Mingming, hurry up and tell me. If you're right, I'll reward you with money!"
"Thank you, Young Master Cui. I heard from my friends in the Mathematics and Mathematics Department that this carriage is from the workshop of the Strange Taste Pavilion. It will be sold at the Strange Taste Pavilion after a while!"
"Good, good, good. When the time comes, I'll definitely buy one! Ah Chou, reward me! "
"Yes, Young Master!"
"Thank you, Young Master Cui!"
…
During the fourth period, Kong Yingda came to the door of the Mathematics and Mathematics Department. He waved at Li Zexuan, as if he had something to say.
Seeing this, Li Zexuan let the students study by themselves. He followed Kong Yingda outside the classroom.
"Chancellor Kong, you're looking for me?"
Li Zexuan asked softly as they approached the carriage.
"Yes, during the morning assembly a few days ago, His Majesty said that you invented something called pinyin. It can help children learn to read. I'm here today to find out more about pinyin."
Kong Yingda said with a serious face.
Li Zexuan suddenly understood. Yan Shaoning was still talking to him about this yesterday. He didn't expect Kong Yingda to come looking for him today.
"So it's about this. Chancellor Kong, why don't we talk about it in the carriage?"
Li Zexuan didn't wait for Kong Yingda to reject him. He pulled open the curtains and invited Kong Yingda in.
Kong Yingda hesitated for a moment, nodded, and got into the carriage.
After entering the carriage, Kong Yingda was shocked to see that the interior decoration of the carriage wasn't inferior to a small independent room. He finally understood why Li Zexuan insisted on him getting into the carriage to talk. This was simply a moving luxury room!
After sitting on the soft sofa, Kong Yingda was shocked again. This time, he couldn't hold it in anymore. He put on a serious face and said to Li Zexuan earnestly,
"Little Xuan, Mencius once said that when the heavens are about to bestow a great responsibility on a man, they must first torment his will, toil his muscles and bones, and starve his body. I know that your family is wealthy, but you can't be too immersed in luxury!"
Li Zexuan was speechless. He saw that Elder Kong was old and it was quite tiring for him to stand outside. That's why he let him get into the carriage and talk things over slowly. Who knew that he would be lectured the moment he got into the carriage. Who the hell could he find to reason with?
"Chancellor Kong, students nowadays study hard all their lives. Other than realizing their ambitions, most of them use their knowledge to change the lives of their families. This kid's luxurious carriage is used to motivate them. It's to tell them that if they want to sit in such a good carriage like this kid, they must study hard. This way, they will have a goal and be able to study even more diligently.
What's more, even though my family is wealthy, I have never forgotten to help the poor. Han Family Manor and Plum Village have nearly five hundred families. Because of this kid, they are able to eat their fill and wear warm clothes. It shouldn't be too much for this kid to use the extra money to enjoy life, right? "
Li Zexuan said with sincerity. Traditional Confucian scholars like Kong Yingda usually believed that people with lofty ambitions must endure hardships and not enjoy life wholeheartedly. Li Zexuan didn't agree with this kind of thinking. What's wrong with me spending the money I earned for myself to enjoy? It's not against the law! What's more, I'm not the kind of person who is heartless and stingy. I've already helped the poor people around me, how can I not be allowed to enjoy life? How can there be such logic in this world?
Kong Yingda was rendered speechless by Li Zexuan's seemingly strong excuses. He couldn't help but think to himself, "This kid is really good at talking about crooked practices. I've really underestimated him."
Li Zexuan didn't want to make this' principal 'too embarrassed and immediately stopped while he was ahead. He coughed dryly and said, "Cough cough, Chancellor Kong, let's talk about pinyin!"
