Sheng Fu

Chapter 894 Some inheritances that are always ignored
Meng Huai took a deep breath and replied in a slightly flattering tone, "In fact, I was once an ordinary person. If it weren't for the Lord Sect Master opening the Dragon Gate for the poor, I wouldn't be able to enter the Hengchang Sect to make a living, let alone have the opportunity to follow Lord Qinghua and do some practical things."

"If it weren't for the Lord Sect Master, I would probably become a poor and destitute scholar."

“There isn’t even much land left to grow crops.”

Qiu Qing was not interested when he heard this. Over the years, he had seen many officials who talked about how difficult their lives were.

The Prime Minister could also feel that Meng Huai was a capable and ambitious young man.

Because we are young, we are still full of passion.

It just so happened that their clan leader was also very passionate, forming a perfect atmosphere and system, so Meng Huai could let go and do what any upright and kind young man wanted to do most.

Maybe, luck really came.

But Qiu Qing said: "Even if Yu Wenjun did not open the Dragon Gate for the poor, and did not promote you, you would still be unknown, but compared with ordinary people, you are still very strong."

"At least you've been educated and have acquired some real knowledge."

"But nowadays, even though Yu Wenjun has opened many Hengchang academies, there are still many children from poor families who can't even write their own names and have never seen what an academy looks like."

"Perhaps in the future, there will still be many ordinary people who live in ignorance all their lives."

"And people like you, even if you are unlucky, can at least provide some benefit to your descendants."

"If you think about it carefully, even if you are an ordinary citizen, you are not an ordinary citizen."

“The suffering of some people is more shocking than we can imagine.”

After hearing this, Meng Huai's heart was moved. Yes, although he had not been happy before, he had always been self-important in his heart and never thought that he would be poor all his life.

But there are many unfortunate people who realize at a very young age that they will be unfortunate people all their lives.

"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your guidance." Meng Huai bowed deeply.

Qiu Qing smiled faintly and said, "It's not really an enlightenment."

"Your Lord has been living a life of luxury since the beginning, and even his level of extravagance has surpassed that of many princes and nobles. However, your Lord is tolerant and can see that many people are not doing well."

“But the experience of suffering is naturally not profound.”

"Of course, Yuwen Jun doesn't need to experience suffering so deeply."

“Suffering is just suffering, it cannot bring fame and fortune.”

“For people to achieve great things, it still depends on talent and luck.”

"But there are very few people like Yuwen Jun. People in high positions rarely treat ordinary people as human beings."

"Many officials in the court, and even many petty officials, do not treat the common people as human beings, but only as animals. It's just that many people will not admit this openly."

"You are still young. You will soon become the governor of Qiushui County. Perhaps this is a private deal between Bai Xiaowei and Yuwen Jun that allows you to be the governor."

"Of course, I will acquiesce to this deal."

"As long as what Yuwen Jun does is beneficial to the people, even I will turn a blind eye to some shady deals."

"But I want to tell you that if you want to go further, you must have someone in your heart."

“Even if that person is a cripple, even if that person is old and has no value, we must always put people first.”

"Of course, you are so full of yourself now that it is difficult for you to appreciate the essence of it."

The former prefect of Qiu Shui County was a low-paying government office, an official position that many children from aristocratic families despised.

But in the future, the prefect of Qiu Shui County will have a lot of money coming in, and Meng Huai's status will even surpass that of some governors, because Meng Huai has a backer.

One of his backers was Yuwen Jun, and the other was Bai Xiaowei. Unknowingly, Meng Huai had embarked on a path of official success.

"It's been a long time since I talked so much to young people. I hope you won't find me annoying." Qiu Qing said with a smile.

Meng Huai bowed and said, "I dare not. In this life, I am so lucky to have the guidance of the Prime Minister. Moreover, many of the Prime Minister's ideas coincide with my aspirations."

“It’s like a long-awaited rain after a long drought.”

Qiu Qing laughed and said, "Just consider it as your flattery is pretty good."

Meng Huai smiled with relief, the light in his eyes becoming brighter.

Qiu Qing looked at Zong Liang again and asked softly, "Bai Xiaowei has also been to Qiushui County?"

Zong Liang bowed, his expression slightly focused, and said truthfully: "I have been here several times, and have had some exchanges with Lord Qinghua. I have also seen the hard work of the coolies."

Qiu Qing continued to ask: "He is a swordsman. In the future, he will most likely become a swordsman at the Wuji realm. Sooner or later, his achievements will surpass mine."

"But in terms of their bohemian daily lives, he and Yu Wenjun are really similar."

"Congratulations, you can follow someone like Bai Xiaowei for the rest of your life."

Zong Liang said: "In my heart, the Prime Minister is also a majestic and magnificent eternal green mountain."

Qiu Qing laughed and said, "This title is a bit big, I'm afraid I can't bear it. Compared with those soldiers fighting passionately on the battlefield, I'm actually enjoying a good life."

Qiu Qing picked up the teacup and took a sip. Seeing this, Meng Huai hurriedly added more tea for Qiu Qing.

At this distance, the political bigwig looks more like a kind-hearted old man.

For a family, a village, a city, or even the entire human race, having such an elder is more than just a blessing for the country.

Qiu Qing would admit his mistakes, but he would never say anything about his many achievements.

This is a person who doesn't like to show off or flatter himself.

It is the luck of the human race to have a swordsman and politician like Bai Xiaowei.

Perhaps a Prime Minister like Qiu Qing is the confidence of the human race's temple.

"Please sit down and talk, both of you. Although I am the Prime Minister here, in the final analysis, we are colleagues. Just treat me as your elder." Qiu Qing said with a loving smile.

Zong Liang and Meng Huai looked at each other, both feeling uneasy.

"Please sit down." Qiu Qing said again.

The two young officials then sat down with uneasy feelings.

……

By the river, the autumn water is getting cooler.

Liu Qinghua and Dugu Li had long been untouched by rain and dew, so they could walk in the rain without restraint, enjoying the feeling brought by their prime years.

"Lord Qinghua, the Prime Minister has arrived." A Panlong spy appeared and knelt on one knee to report.

Liu Qinghua was startled and threw away the thin stone in his hand that he was using for skipping stones on the water.

"Oh, I've known for a long time that Lord Qiu Qing is not a high-handed person, so I didn't pay attention to his schedule. Now, the crime of neglect is set in stone." Liu Qinghua said with a frown.

"Let's go quickly." Dugu Li grabbed Liu Qinghua's wrist and quickly flew towards the temporary mansion.

In the rain, two beautiful figures disappeared into the horizon in an instant.
