Chapter 341 The Last Lesson ([-])
Neishutang Bookstore.

Sun Dan was silent for a moment, looked at Chen Hong, and said quietly: "I want you to become a real person."

"Really?" Chen Hong looked at his beloved teacher with some puzzlement.

"Then, what is a real person?" Sun Dan picked up a pen, dipped it in ink and wrote a large Chinese character on the wall, and said loudly: "The so-called human character means a stroke on the left and a stroke on the right. Open-minded. I know that you are all eunuchs, because of that knife, many people feel that they are inferior, have you ever thought about it?"

All the little eunuchs fell silent.

Sun Dan: "However, it is a last resort to enter the palace to receive this knife. You were all born in poor families. If you didn't enter the palace, you would have starved to death. It is really unfilial to have your parents so hurt and incomplete. However, there is no other way, who would want to go to such a place?"

Sun Dan's words touched the most secret place in everyone's heart. The little eunuchs hurt themselves, and their eyes were red.

"Although people outside look down on you, can you look down on yourself?" Sun Dan said loudly, "Answer me."

no answer.

Sun Dan pointed to a young eunuch: "Yuan Fucheng, I know you. You are from Baoding Prefecture. You were only ten years old that year. Your father injured his leg while working, and the family was poor. The family has been living for three days. I haven’t eaten. If you don’t get the money as soon as possible, not only will your father’s leg lose, but the whole family will starve to death. That’s how you picked up the kitchen knife and went from the palace to the imperial city to become a eunuch. With the money from selling yourself, your family finally I survived in that famine year. Many people who entered the palace were sold by family members or human traffickers, but there are not many people like you who cut themselves off. Even the eunuchs in the palace looked contemptuous when they mentioned you. Tell me, isn’t that the case?”

The little eunuch named Yuan Fucheng who was named nodded: "Yes sir, not only people inside and outside the palace look down on me, but even I look down on myself. I didn't think much of it when I didn't study before, but now I know how to read. , Understand the truth, every time the students think of this, their hearts are bleeding."

He is a man of determination, otherwise he would not have been able to castrate himself with a knife back then.But because of this, he has much stronger self-esteem than ordinary people.Thinking of the situation when he cut it off with a single knife, and thinking of the pain he suffered when he entered the palace to clean up the stubble because he didn't cut it clean, Yuan Fucheng couldn't help shivering.

"You shouldn't think so. If a person doesn't even know how to respect himself, how can he be respected by others. You are my student. If you continue to do this, don't mention me as a gentleman in front of others." Sun Dan said to He just yelled angrily, then turned his head and asked everyone: "In my opinion, Yuan Fucheng sacrificed his life to save his father, which is the greatest filial piety in the world, and he is a pure and innocent son. Do you think so?"

"Yes!" Everyone shouted at the same time.

"Is it really?"

"Yes!" The students became excited.

Sun Dan walked up to Yuan Fucheng, and suddenly bowed deeply.

Yuan Fucheng was shocked, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, weeping: "Sir, how can a student afford it!"

Sun Dan helped him up: "I'm not begging you, I'm praying to the world, a good man with a conscience and a human touch. What a Yuan Fucheng, you deserve my Sun Dan's beckoning, you deserve a Big herringbone."

"Sir!" Yuan Fucheng burst into tears, his whole body trembling from crying.

Sun Dan let go of Yuan Fucheng, pointed to another young eunuch and said, "Gao Mei, you were only five years old when you entered the palace, and you were sold in by human traffickers. You didn't understand anything at that time, so what responsibility did you have? Why should I call you a 'eunuch' to condemn those ruthless traffickers? Answer, are you human?"

Gao Mei replied loudly: "Sir, I'm not a eunuch, I'm a human being." At this point, he had tears streaming down his face, "Sir, I don't want to become what I am now, but God arranged it like this, so what can I do? .I'm only a bit of a ignorant person, and I haven't done anything bad. When I left the palace a few days ago, I met a scholar...he...why did he spit on my face, why did he call me a little eunuch..."

Sun Dan: "The reason why your eunuchs had a bad reputation in the past was because there were many so-called treacherous ministers, such as Qian Ning. However, there are still few treacherous ministers among foreign ministers. Isn't Jiang Bin a foreign minister? And Sanbao eunuch Zheng And, is he a bad guy? Isn’t Zhang Chengyi of the Five Dynasties also a famous official through the ages, they are all eunuchs! Therefore, a person’s identity is not important, the key is to see what he has done? You are all my students, Don't belittle yourself, and in the future, you can do things generously and behave in an upright manner."

"As human beings, are we also normal people?" Almost all the little eunuchs had this question in their minds.

Probably seeing what the students were thinking, Sun Dan laughed loudly and said, "You are all normal people. In the eyes of the teacher, you are no different from the children outside. It's nothing special to suffer that knife. There are still many broken people outside. What about disabled people with broken arms and legs? Do those with broken legs and hands look down on themselves?"

Sun Dan: "After reading the books of sages for so many years, don't you have the slightest arrogance in your heart?"

He picked up the pen again and wrote four big characters on the wall: "Self-esteem, self-improvement."

Then throw the pen to the ground, "school is over, goodbye."

……

The spring rain did not know when it fell, and the whole Xiyuan was shrouded in a dense mist.

The flowers, plants and trees are green after the rain, and the air is filled with the fragrance of plants.

Sun Dan walked in front, and a group of students followed silently.

No one spoke, this is the silence after a long time together.

This silence is not unfamiliarity, but a tacit understanding.

All the students' faces were wet, and they didn't know whether it was rain or tears.

Chen Hong took off his palace attire and held it high on Sun Dan's head to shield his teacher from the rain.

"Go back, go back." Sun Dan turned his head and glanced at the crowd: "It's about to leave the boundary of the Inner Academy, this is Xiyuan, it's not good for others to see it."

"Send off sir." Chen Hong knelt down.

More than 30 practitioners also knelt on the mud at the same time.

At this time, the inner study hall was open for dinner, and the noise of students could be faintly heard.

Then there is the school song composed by Sun Dan:
"The blue clouds in the West Mountain are refreshing,
Lugou Xiaoyue in the north of Beijing.

Look at the towering clouds of our school,
Weiwei sat in it together.

Half the city is filled with the sound of reading,
Far away from the hustle and bustle of the downtown.

Tao Li is speechless,

Enjoy the spring breeze.

May the boy, don’t forget the skill of transforming rain..."
