I heard Liu Siye say before that he invited Chen Fan to study in the Imperial College, but Chen Fan refused.
Fang Zhengru thought Liu Siye was exaggerating. After all, who in the world could refuse such a good opportunity to enter the Imperial College?
But seeing Chen Fan's firm refusal at this time, Fang Zhengru knew that Liu Siye was not exaggerating.
"You have such an amazing talent. If you don't go to the Imperial College, it will be a big loss for me, Daxia. I will never allow this to happen."
Liu Siye said firmly.
Seeing Liu Siye's stubborn look, Chen Fan felt a little embarrassed. How could he make him give up this idea?
Suddenly Chen Fan's eyes lit up.
"I dare to ask Sir Si Ye, what will happen to me in the future after I go to the Imperial College?"
Chen Fan suddenly asked back.
Liu Siye thought that Chen Fan had changed his mind, and he immediately smiled.
"In the future, there is a high chance that you will win the imperial examination and then become an official and take charge of government affairs to benefit the people and make them live and work in peace and contentment."
"This is the way a man should go."
Liu Siye said with a smile.
In his eyes, Chen Fan had been persuaded by him, which gave Liu Siye a sense of satisfaction.
He had already begun to imagine the scene where Chen Fan would shine in the Imperial Academy.
"So if I go to the Imperial College, it will be so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment in the future, right?"
Chen Fan continued to ask.
Although he didn't know why Chen Fan asked this, Liu Siye still nodded and said, "That's right."
Hearing this, Chen Fan's lips turned up, revealing a smile.
Seeing Chen Fan's smile, Liu Siye suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Letting people live and work in peace and contentment is nothing more than ensuring their food, clothing, housing and transportation, right?"
Chen Fan asked again.
Hearing this, Liu Siye hesitated for a moment, but still nodded.
When Chen Fan saw this, the smile on his lips became even wider.
And the bad premonition in Liu Siye's heart became even stronger.
"Master Siye, think about it, if Daxia only has officials and no businessmen, can it guarantee the people's food, clothing, housing and transportation?"
Chen Fan continued to ask.
Hearing Chen Fan's tricky rhetorical question, Liu Siye didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"As long as my business is large enough, I can also protect the people's food, clothing, housing and transportation."
"So the final result of doing business and taking the imperial examination are the same, which is to ensure the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the people."
"In the same way, doing business is the same as taking the imperial examination."
Chen Fan said with a smile.
After listening to what Chen Fan said, Liu Siye suddenly felt like he had a lot to say but couldn't.
"Young one, I'll take my leave first. You two adults, please rest early!"
When Chen Fan saw this, he quickly ran away.
"You are just quibbling... quibbling. How can a lowly businessman be compared with the imperial examination?"
Liu Siye roared angrily.
But at this time, Chen Fan was no longer in the room.
Unexpectedly, he was asked by Chen Fan and had nothing to say, which made Liu Siye even more angry.
"If I had known, I wouldn't have saved him."
Liu Siye said fiercely.
"Ha ha ha ha."
Fang Zhengru on the side suddenly burst into laughter.
Hearing this laughter, Liu Siye was very dissatisfied.
"Why are you laughing? Do you agree with this kid's heresy?"
Liu Siye said dissatisfied.
Although Fang Zhengru was the emperor's master, the two were close friends, so Liu Siye had no scruples in speaking.
"So what if you don't agree? Can you refute what he just said?"
Fang Zhengru asked with a smile.
This made Liu Siye speechless for a moment.
"I'm afraid he is the only one in the world who can compare a lowly businessman with an official."
Fang Zhengru said with a smile, his eyes revealing his appreciation for Chen Fan.
"What do you think of this kid?"
Liu Siye looked at Fang Zhengru with a serious face and asked.
He knew that his old friend was very accurate in judging people, and he also wanted to hear what Fang Zhengru thought of Chen Fan.
After hearing this, Fang Zhengru did not answer immediately, but thought about it for a while. It was obvious that Chen Fan made it difficult for him to evaluate.
It wasn't until Liu Siye got impatient with waiting that Fang Zhengru spoke.
"He is brave, resourceful and a little greedy. More importantly, he has an indescribable temperament."
Liu Siye immediately frowned when he heard this.
"Can you tell me more clearly, what kind of temperament do you have?"
Liu Siye said dissatisfied.
"I can't tell you. It's just a convincing temperament. If what Chen Fan said just now were said by an ordinary scholar, wouldn't you be able to think of anything to refute?"
Liu Siye shook his head subconsciously.
"That's right. Why were you speechless just now? It's because you have already convinced Chen Fan in your heart, but you just don't want to believe it with your mouth."
"Today is the first time I have seen such scholars unite in this way, just to save Chen Fan, a man with no fame or fortune."
"I see respect in the eyes of these scholars. The respect in their eyes is much more than what they see in our eyes."
"I firmly believe that this son will achieve more than you and me in time. Perhaps he can also do something to change Daxia."
Fang Zhengru said with a serious face.
Liu Siye did not expect that Fang Zhengru would have such a high opinion of Chen Fan.
Of course, Chen Fan didn't know about the conversation between the two.
He can't wait to go to the prison now, preparing to take Yingchun and Yingxia out.
The guards in the prison already knew Chen Fan, and also knew that Yan Bei respected Chen Fan very much, so Chen Fan entered smoothly.
In order to take care of the emotions of Chen Fan and others these days, Yan Bei did not torture the prisoners, so Chen Fan did not hear the screams after entering.
"Chen Fan."
Just when Chen Fan was hurriedly trying to pick up his wife, a prisoner in the cell suddenly called him.
Chen Fan turned around and saw that Chen Hao was locked inside.
Locked together with a dozen prisoners.
At this time, Chen Hao was disheveled and no longer looked like the handsome young man he once was.
"Ha ha ha ha."
"You must have been caught too! I knew you couldn't defeat the Zhao family."
Chen Hao suddenly laughed.
He thought that Chen Fan appeared here because he was arrested. After all, not everyone can come to prison just because they want, which made Chen Hao feel very happy.
Who is the person Chen Hao hates most now? It must be Chen Fan.
How could Chen Hao not be happy when he saw that Chen Fan had the same fate as himself?
"Snapped."
"What are you talking nonsense about? Mr. Chen is a distinguished guest of our Lord Yan. If you dare to talk nonsense again, believe it or not, I will beat you to death."
Just when Chen Hao was feeling proud, a jailer whipped him and scolded him angrily.
Chen Hao was immediately knocked to the ground, and a long blood mark appeared on his body.
Upon seeing this, Chen Fan walked into Chen Hao's cell with a sneer, and then stood in front of him, looking down at him.
