What did Li Ziqi write?
She wrote that humans needed to form a single entity with the same fate. They needed to put down all prejudices, conflicts, and killings for the sake of achieving a grand goal and work together to achieve a win-win situation.
When Sun Mo saw this, he shook his head. (It'd be a miracle if others could understand your foresight!)
"Your Highness Ziqi, what do you mean by this? Can you explain? "
Grand Tutor Su asked.
"Although our current lives are stable, this is only temporary. Because as long as humans develop, there'd be a day when we'd face an opportunity or a crisis!
"No matter which one it is, only when humans have enough strength would we be able to capture or resolve it!
"We shouldn't just focus on the benefits in front of us. We have to look at the future. 1,000 years, 2,000 years, or even 10,000 years later, we should build a solid foundation for our descendants!"
Li Ziqi's words were like a fantasy story. A thousand years later? Even the corpses had turned to ashes, but the little sunny egg's tone was exceptionally solemn and serious.
In the black-and-white game, Li Ziqi had experienced five games and seen too many social structures and ideologies. What was right?
Li Ziqi didn't know, but she knew that humans would definitely continue to walk on. If they wanted to walk more stably, faster, and further, they had to unite all of humanity and work hard toward a single direction.
"Our goal now is to open up the Darkness Continent!"
Li Ziqi thought of those sci-fi movies she had seen in the black-and-white game. "And in the future, it'll be the sea of stars! We'll eventually leave the Nine Provinces and head to the vaster universe to search for the endpoint and meaning of life! "
"..."
Grand Tutor Su had a dumbfounded look on his face. (What are you talking about?
Who would understand?)
"Leave the Nine Provinces? Universe? What are these? "
"I don't understand!"
"Although I don't understand, I feel that it's very impressive!"
Let alone scholars, even high-ranking great teachers with profound knowledge were baffled by the terms they had never seen before in Li Ziqi's article.
"This is my beloved niece?"
Li Xiu subconsciously glanced at Sun Mo. (What on earth did you do to her? Could it be that she was possessed by an ancient hegemon in the legends?
No, even an ancient hegemon wouldn't say something like this, right?)
Li Ziqi got off the stage and returned.
"Eldest Martial Sister, what are you talking about? Can you tell me about it? "
Qin Yaoguang was very curious.
"Useless knowledge!"
Li Ziqi had a self-mocking smile. After that, she looked at Sun Mo and lowered her head to admit her mistake. "Teacher, I don't think I'll be able to get first place in this round."
"If you knew, why did you still do it?"
Sun Mo was curious.
Although Xia Taikang's governing philosophy was tyrannical, it was still within the scope of everyone's understanding. As for Li Ziqi, it was too advanced.
How could they expect the natives of Nine Regions to understand this concept?
I'd better wash up and sleep!
"I don't know, either. I just feel that now that I've seen some 'dawn', it's my responsibility to help everybody avoid detours. Hundreds of years are both too long and too short in the long river of history!"
Li Ziqi sighed.
"Eldest Senior Sister, your words are so profound. Are you talking about Zen?"
Xian Yuwei scratched her head, completely unable to understand.
Sun Mo smiled and rubbed the little sunny egg's head. "I'm very proud to have a student like you!"
After hearing this, Li Ziqi's oval-shaped face instantly bloomed into a smile. She involuntarily shook her head and responded to her teacher's touch.
When Han Cangshui saw this scene, he felt a little sour and a little disappointed. He couldn't understand the conversation between Sun Mo and Li Ziqi, but his sixth sense as a high-ranking great teacher told him that this was definitely a high-level topic.
This pair of teacher and disciple had already surpassed him.
Li Xuan's essay was also published.
His words were also very good, written in beautiful regular script. The content wasn't bad either. In any case, one could tell from his words that he wanted to be a benevolent ruler, but that was it.
Since ancient times, how many emperors had there been? It wasn't as though benevolent rulers had never appeared before.
No matter how outstanding you were, could you be more outstanding than Yao Shunyu?
As the commendation continued, the ranking of the participants was also released.
The judges were 18 highly respected great teachers. All of them were at least 6-star great teachers and were extremely knowledgeable. Hence, there was no need to worry that their brilliant essays wouldn't be appreciated.
But in truth, Li Ziqi's essay was still underestimated.
In the afternoon, the final result was out!
Xia Taikang obtained first place. His goal was clear and his ideals were grand. Although he might become a tyrant of a generation, from the perspective of a great teacher, there were also countless benefits to unifying the Nine Provinces.
Wei Wuan was ranked second because although his ideals were similar to Xia Taikang's, he wasn't as tyrannical as Xia Taikang and didn't dare to say the solution.
Li Xuan's essay was ranked in the top ten. It wasn't that he was good enough, but it was because the others weren't outstanding enough.
Although Jiang Yuzhen's idea was novel, it was too naive. As for Xiang Zhao, he was still behind her because he wasn't fit to be a ruler.
Li Ziqi's ranking was the last because all the great teachers were hesitating.
If they couldn't understand, how could they rank her?
In the end, they could only give her an average ranking. However, there were already many great teachers who decided to look for her in private to seek guidance.
After the book battle ended, it was time for the famous paintings. However, because the debate had already been going on for a week, the Qi King held a large-scale banquet on the night when the results of the book battle were announced. He invited envoys and great teachers from various countries to drink together.
As long as one was a 4-star great teacher or above, they could attend even if they didn't have an invitation.
From this, one could see that in the eyes of these first-tier countries, 4-star great teachers were the ones who could obtain respect and courtesy.
...
The banquet was held in the Taiji Palace. It was very grand and grand.
At such a time, the seating arrangement would reflect the status of each guest in the country, or rather, in the heart of the emperor.
The closer one was to the emperor, the more highly regarded and intimate one would be.
Grand Xia's comprehensive national strength was number one, but now, they were ranked behind Great Tang. This caused the princes of Grand Xia's envoys to feel humiliated. All of them stared angrily at Great Tang.
Li Xiu was also very helpless. The Qi King was too unreliable. Couldn't he put in more effort to save face? Did he have to make things like this and make enemies for everyone?
During the banquet, other than a few polite words, the Qi King took the initiative to chat with Sun Mo for the rest of the time.
"Official Sun, it's too inconvenient to talk like this. Why don't you sit over here?"
The Qi King invited.
He no longer called Sun Mo 'Great Teacher Sun' but 'Official Sun' instead. This sounded more intimate.
"Your Majesty, that's your seat!"
Sun Mo rejected.
He didn't really care about the seating arrangement. He just didn't want to sit together with this old man. (If it's the beautiful empress, I might consider it.)
Although the empress was old, as the mother of a country, her demeanor was too attractive. Moreover, she maintained her appearance very well.
"Empress, your complexion doesn't look too good. Have you been suffering from insomnia frequently recently?"
Sun Mo asked with a smile.
"That's right!"
The empress touched her face and asked, "I heard that Great Teacher Sun's God Hands can change one's appearance. I wonder if..."
"The empress is born beautiful and has unparalleled looks. There's no need for plastic surgery. However, when one gets older, there would always be problems with one's body. You still need to maintain your appearance or you'll age too quickly."
Sun Mo took the opportunity to recommend. "Get Ziqi to beautify your face and remove your wrinkles. I don't dare to say you'll look like you're 18 years old, but it won't be a problem for you to return to 25 years old."
"Ah? 25 years old? "
The empress' brows twitched, filled with surprise. If it wasn't for the fact that the banquet was still ongoing, she would want to pull Li Ziqi to go to the beauty salon immediately.
(Wait a minute!)
"Great Teacher Sun, can't you do it?"
It was like how many people wanted to find the most amazing doctor when they saw a doctor. The empress was no exception. It would definitely be the safest for Sun Mo to do it.
"Ziqi has already received my true inheritance!"
Sun Mo guaranteed.
(Sigh, this is a chance to touch the empress openly. Wouldn't it be better to apply oil all over her body?)
However, for the sake of Ziqi's future, Sun Mo gave up.
After the empress tried the ancient massage technique, she'd surely like it and do it often in the future. After all, no matter what era it was, women had no resistance to cosmetics and beauty products.
At that time, Ziqi would have an ally.
Li Xuan glanced at Sun Mo who was chatting happily with the empress. He gulped down a mouthful of wine and suddenly felt the pressure increase greatly.
(Teacher Han, you are useless!)
Li Xuan felt a little resentment in his heart.
"Subject Sun, can I have a beauty salon?"
Qi King had long since been unhappy with the wrinkles on his face. He also wanted to be a quiet handsome man.
"..."
Sun Mo was speechless. He wanted to tell Qi King that a man's value wasn't determined by his looks. It could also be understood as looking at status and money.
(You are already the ruler of a country. Even if you look like Du Xingsun, you can have whatever you want. Why do you need plastic surgery?
Could it be that you don't want to work hard anymore? Do you want to find an auntie to buy things for you?)
"Sure!"
Sun Mo didn't mind. In any case, it was just a matter of tens of minutes!
"Haha, Subject Sun is as expected of a bosom friend of mine. Drink up!"
The Prince of Qi gulped down the entire cup of fine wine in one gulp.
"How can there be no poetry when there's wine? I heard that Teacher Sun is Gandalf, the author of [Journey to the West] and [Dream of the Red Chamber]. I often feel regretful that I haven't been able to witness Teacher Sun's glory. Today, I hope that Teacher can compose a poem for this banquet! "
A clear and elegant voice rang out.
Everyone turned their heads and saw a princess of Grand Xia sincerely requesting Sun Mo to compose a poem.
"It's this little b * tch again!"
Li Ziqi was unhappy. During the chess battle, it was this young girl who had been pestering them endlessly.
The princes of Grand Xia's envoy group immediately echoed, requesting Sun Mo to compose a poem.
In order to deal with the book battle, everyone had meticulously prepared several good poems. One must know that these people were all relatives of the royal family and had many experts. It wasn't a problem for them to come up with some good poems.
Now, after Sun Mo finished composing a poem, wouldn't they be able to crush him by tossing out another one? They would also be able to establish their reputation as a talented poet.
"Is there going to be a poem battle?"
Not only for Grand Xia's envoy group, but the princes of the other countries were also itching to give it a try. They wanted nothing more than to fight 300 rounds with Sun Mo.
As long as they could kill Sun Mo, they would become famous after this battle!
