Ye Feng continued: "Of course, I am not extremely objective. After all, things must be reversed when they are extreme. I advocate: Good things depend on the heart, and bad things depend on the behavior. My theory of the integration of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism does not exclude Mr. Yangming's philosophy of mind. I In the theory of good and evil, in addition to "Being able to do evil and doing evil is doing evil; being able to do evil and not doing it is doing good", there are actually two more sentences at the end - "Being able to be good and doing good is not necessarily good; being able to do good is not necessarily good; being able to be good and not doing it is doing good". Failure to do good is close to evil.' These two sentences involve part of the content of Yangming's theory of mind, and they can also be regarded as my recognition of the ideal factor of 'heart' in Yangming's theory of mind."
In fact, for Xiruo at this moment, it no longer mattered whether Ye Feng was the reincarnation of Mr. Yangming, because he was already the savior of Yangming Academy. Xiruo held the land deeds that she had longed for deeply in her arms, lowered her head, and said in a trembling voice with a sob: "Ye Feng, thank you, really thank you."
At this moment, Ye Feng said seriously: "I am the dean of Yangming Academy now, not you. It is not your turn to deal with these troublesome matters."
Ye Feng changed the subject and softened his tone a lot, saying: "You are not yet capable of taking on the position of dean, so what you need to do now is to continue to grow. In the future, you will be capable enough, uh , let’s not talk about this first.”
The connotation of Ye Feng's words is obvious. When Xiruo is capable enough in the future, he will return the position of dean to Xiruo. After all, Ye Feng and the others are outsiders and can only stay here for a maximum of ten years. If Ye Feng doesn't have a perfect way to save everyone, then 10 years later, only Xi Ruo will be left in Yangming Academy. If Ye Feng and others help Xi Ruo do everything now, what will happen to Xi Ruo? Can't do anything and become a giant baby. Then when Ye Feng and the others have to leave in 10 years, Ye Feng and the others will be "killing people." This is the same as Ye Feng's treatment of the mortal civilization. Ye Feng can protect the mortal civilization and Xiruo, but the mortal civilization and Xiruo must grow up and grow toward goals that do not require Ye Feng's protection.
Everyone present naturally knew the importance of this, so Xiruo said seriously to Ye Feng:
"I know, I will work hard"
Ye Feng said: "Xiruo, there happens to be something happening right in front of me. The surrounding colleges will visit me in person in a few days, or it is more accurate to say flattery. There is no one in the outer courtyard of Yangming Academy now, so this time, I want you to have full authority." Being responsible is an exercise for you, and I won’t help you this time, do you understand?”
Xiruo said: "I will definitely handle it."
Ye Feng thought for a while and finally said to Mei Jiu: "Mei Jiu, this time you go help Xiruo handle the matter here."
Mei Jiu smiled and said, "Okay, Dean."
Tu Shanling said strangely: "Ye Feng, that's not right. You just ransacked those college deans, why would they still come to curry favor with you?"
Ye Feng said contemptuously: "I didn't rob them. I redeemed my things at a higher price than the original price, okay? I didn't rob their things. As for why they still come to curry favor, it's their own reasons."
Xiao Wu asked: "Their own reasons?"
Ye Feng said: "Because they are afraid that I will annex them. Even though I have told them that I won't do it, they just don't believe it."
Xiao Wu asked: "Why?"
Ye Feng said: "Because they firmly believe that the strong will definitely bully and exploit the weak, and will not let the weak go. Although there are cases where the weak are not exploited, it is just that the strong do not want to bully the weak for the time being. In the past, they used to The strong bully the weak, and they firmly believe in this idea. But when they face me, they become weak. They will take the initiative to put themselves into the situation of the weak. They firmly believe that I, the strong, will be like them, absolutely I won't let the weak go. They think I didn't touch them this time and just took back their own things, just because I didn't slow down. They believe that I will still trouble them after I calm down, because that's how they are Do it.”
Ye Feng looked at Xiruo and said, "So Xiruo, this time, the situation of contact with them will be more complicated. You have to pay attention to what I just said, so this time I asked Mei Jiu to help you. It’s not that I doubt your ability, do you understand?”
Ye Feng paused and continued: "Xiruo, one person's power will always be exhausted. Even I, there are things that one person cannot accomplish. So try to rely more on the power of trustworthy companions for this matter. There’s no shame in that.”
Xiruo nodded, because she did have some resentment in her heart just now. Didn't she say she was training me? Why did you ask Uncle Mei Jiu to help me again? Do you suspect that I am not capable enough? Can't even handle matters in the outer court? But after hearing Ye Feng's explanation, the grudge in Xiruo's heart finally disappeared.
Xiruo finally nodded and said, "I understand."
Ren Xiaojin suddenly said: "Feng, is this the only thing you did?"
Ye Feng smiled and said, "Of course not."
Sure enough, I can't hide my own affairs from Jin'er.
"I also did one more thing, please listen to me slowly,"
. . .
At this time, Zhang Ergou, who was farming in the field, was in a state of despair, working like a machine.
Suddenly, in the field, someone shouted "Dad" loudly. The voice sounded like that of a girl, but the girl called "Daddy" a few more times. Zhang Ergou listened carefully and realized why the voice of his eldest girl sounded so much like his own. Zhang Ergou finally came to his senses and suddenly raised his head, following the sound, he saw a girl not far away walking towards him with pear blossoms and rain. When she came here, her clothes were relatively neat, but her trouser legs were already stained by mud, but she didn't care at all.
Zhang Ergou couldn't believe his eyes and ears, but when the girl ran closer, she was really a big girl. Zhang Ergou was so excited that he hugged his eldest daughter. At this moment, he, a man, really cried out loud this time,
"Big girl, daddy is sorry for you, daddy is useless."
Suddenly Zhang Ergou seemed to remember something, because the eldest girl was sold to a wealthy family outside Yutao Village, and she was already a slave of that wealthy family. If the eldest girl escapes and comes back, her family will have to compensate the other party five times. How can this family have any money now?
Zhang Ergou couldn't bear to push the big girl away, crying and cursing: "How can you escape, are you going to kill us?"
But the eldest girl shook her head and explained with tears: "I didn't run away, it was my benefactor who redeemed me and gave me a lot of money."
Zhang Ergou didn't look like the girl was lying, and she took out a heavy amount of money from her arms, enough to buy food for the family for a year. Zhang Ergou said excitedly: "Who is that benefactor?"
The eldest girl said: "I don't know, I only know that the other person is the new dean of Yangming Academy."
