Chapter 804: Nono of the Thousands

As the saying goes, young people have great ambitions. Lin Yannian did not intend to rely on Qin II's guilt towards his father and think that he had a bright future.

Not only that, Lin Yannian had high standards for himself. Like him, he wanted to be an upright gentleman and hated those petty and servile things.

So he never told other classmates whose son he was, so that the school supervisor and classmates always thought that he, Lin Yannian, was just the son of an ordinary historian.

After all, Lin Xin was dead, and when Lin Yannian entered school, he didn't even have a letter of recommendation written by his father, but was recommended by other officials.

When an ordinary bad guy dies, not many people remember him; when an ordinary good guy dies, not many people remember him either.

Lin Xin was just an insignificant figure in the historical torrent over thousands of years.

In order to defend the justice in his heart, he paid the price of his life even though he knew he was not strong enough.

Many people would think that people like Lin Xin are stupid and not worth it; they not only failed to accomplish anything, but also lost their life.

His death is not even as famous as Zhao Gao's, and his name is not even recorded in history books.

But in fact, it is the belief in justice of such ordinary people that defends something that cannot be seen or explained.

During his life, Fusu met many powerful people and also met many defeated generals.

But he had never met, and would never meet, someone like Xin in the future.

A gentleman who is full of ideals and justice, but he is not that powerful and his abilities are very limited.

In the political struggle, he ruined his life in an almost ridiculous way.

Just because I have firmed my stance and firmly believed in what is right and what is wrong.

Sometimes, Fusu felt that Lin Xin was like a vanguard on the battlefield. Everyone knew that the probability of death was higher when being a vanguard, but he just wanted to be that vanguard.

Because in his mind, it is what I love, and he will not regret it even if he dies nine times.

For the justice they long for and pursue in their hearts, and to protect the people they want to protect, these people are willing to do so even at the cost of their lives.

The natural defects in human beings can never be perfect, but they show different effects on these people.

He is not very strong, but he is respectable to everyone who knows him.

Qin II would never forget Lin Xin, just as he would never forget the Qin assault soldiers on the battlefield.

The Qin shock troops were the backbone of the lowest-level families in Qin society.

As long as he became a shock soldier, his family would have enough food and drink and would not have to worry about their livelihood; if his ancestors blessed him and prevented him from dying on the battlefield, as long as the war was over, he could return home with the title.

Throughout history, there have been so many fathers and husbands like this...

They have no names. When treacherous officials in the court were rampant, they stood up and died as martyrs. When foreign races invaded, they often became the last resistance team, vowing to prevent foreign races from invading their homes...

As soon as Lin Yannian entered the classroom, Qin II saw him.

Not only does his face look almost exactly like his father's, but his temperament is also the same as his father's.

He is obviously a wimp, but he still thinks he is awesome;

He held his head high, very proud; the thin bones on his face protruded as if he was about to stab a bad guy to death.

There was a gleam in his pupils, as if no matter how well the evil spirits disguised themselves, they would not be able to escape his eyes.

This is the young man.

As soon as Lin Yannian entered the classroom, all the officials following Fusu looked over at him.

Lin Yannian knew that his father died because of serving the current emperor, but in his mind, his father was probably just a small figure.

Because he had hardly seen many people come to his home to give gifts since he was a child.

As a result, when he entered the classroom, all the people in red and purple clothes and wearing tall crowns were looking at him.

These people generally have a stronger aura than ordinary people, and their eyes are bright. They are almost all eight feet tall and have extraordinary looks.

As for Qin II, he knew Lin Yannian.

He personally attended Lin Xin's funeral.

When their eyes met, Fusu's head suddenly buzzed, as if the clock in his heart that had been put aside for many years was suddenly hit by someone, and his whole body went numb.

The person in front of me is simply Lin Xin’s reincarnation.

But soon, Fusu realized that this person was the son that Lin Xin always boasted to him. He said that he was less than fifteen years old, but he could write all the official documents by looking at the drafts in his study, and he didn't make a single mistake.

Fusu said at the time that he was too good at boasting, how could he not write a single word wrong.

The funeral that day was really rushed, and Fusu felt very guilty towards the entire Lin family and didn't know what to say.

However, two years had passed... when Fusu saw the descendants of his old friends, he still didn't know what to say.

This was the first time that Fusu found it difficult to suppress his inner emotions, and his eyes turned red on the spot.

The school supervisor was stunned. He had no idea who this Lin Yannian was.

The emperor's eyes turned red when he looked at him.

When Guan Fu saw Lin Yannian, he burst into tears on the spot. He looked at the young man and almost rushed over to hug him and cry.

Fortunately, Shao Ping stepped on his foot and said, "Wei Wei, please be careful about your behavior in front of the disciples and leave a good impression on them."

Only then did Guan Fu stop.

Many other officials admired Lin Xin.

Among so many people, except for the heartless Chen Ping who didn't even blink when he saw his old boss's son, everyone else was deeply moved.

The school supervisor had never taken Lin Yannian seriously, but he didn't expect these people to react so strongly to him. In the past, he always arranged the last seat for him, even though Lin Yannian was the shortest.

Although Lin Yannian performed very poorly in class and looked like he was unwilling to listen to the lectures, he always ranked first in every exam.

These things made his teachers very helpless, because Lin Yannian was too smart and never gave them, his teachers, face. Not only did he never care about the teachers' well-being, but he also always gave them a cold shoulder.

So his teachers always deliberately gave him above-average scores during exams.

This way, I can secretly bully this bad boy. Secondly, the scores are almost the same, and I can also deceive this ignorant bastard.

In addition, a professor who taught "Field Law" always publicly criticized this kid, saying that his voice was not loud enough when he answered questions in class.

Sometimes he would be asked to answer a question on purpose, and even though his answer was very good, the teacher would leave him aside and not allow him to sit down; then other students would be asked to answer questions on purpose, and even though their answers were very bad, the teacher would praise them.

Then he deliberately found an opportunity to get close to other students and isolate Lin Yannian.

As for Lin Yannian, he never reacted.

Or maybe he pretended not to know, pretending not to understand the purpose of these people doing these meaningless things.

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that he just disdained the little tricks of those villains who tried to curry favor with the teachers; he was even more disdainful that teachers in today's society had become like this.

Lin Yannian never understood why the world was the opposite.

The current emperor killed so many people, forced his father to abdicate, and eliminated dissidents. All the things he did were similar to what the emperor did, but they praised the new emperor. Obviously, in Lin Yannian's eyes, Qin Ershi was more hateful than Qin Shihuang; but in the eyes of outsiders, Qin Ershi was good, and Qin Shihuang became a bad guy.

Contrary to what adults thought, Lin Yannian actually had a premonition of his father's death when he was very young.

Because every time there was a festival or the birthday of a minister in the court, his father always chose to read at home alone. Everyone else was busy driving a carriage to deliver gifts, but his father didn't even prepare a gift.

When Lin Yannian was very young, he heard his mother always ask his father, "If you don't make friends with others, how will the children make a living when they grow up?"

"As long as you are upright, why worry about God not giving you food? People can go hungry, but they cannot lose their solar terms."

Lin Yannian was not at all surprised at his father's death.

Because, to be honest, his father has always been missing to him.

Although Lin Xin often praised his son in front of outsiders, Yannian was not present when he praised him.

Lin Xin spent most of his time with Qin Shihuang and his son. As for his son, he only cared about his morality and studies. As for his inner world, Lin Xin often had no way to take care of both.

So although Lin Yannian had a father, this father never made him feel dependent.

Being there and not being there are the same.

But often, Lin Yannian would miss his father very much. He could even feel that his father missed him when he was away from home, so much so that after his father died, Lin Yannian always felt that his father was still alive in another place in the world.

After seeing the emperor, Lin Yannian was very calm, as if he had always known that the emperor would behave like this after seeing him, and was not surprised at all.

When the emperor saw Lin Yannian, he wanted to use him in order to make up for his debt to his father, just as Lin Yannian had expected.

Lin Yannian always knew this, so he never worried about his career.

And to be honest, every time he heard his arrogant classmates talk about how they would become high-ranking officials in the future and serve the emperor personally, Lin Yannian couldn't help laughing in his heart.

To gain the emperor's trust is harder than climbing to heaven.

It's not something that ordinary people can do.

Only someone like his father could do that.

It was a good parade, but after seeing the thin Lin Yannian, the emperor's heart quickly turned cold.

He didn't expect that this young man was so tough and came to the classroom to attend class without saying a word.

I don't know whether he was using this method to express his resentment towards me, or whether he was using this self-abuse method to complain to God about his powerlessness after losing his father.

The light in Qin II's eyes dimmed rapidly.

Chen Ping was heartless. He did not recognize Lin Yannian when he first saw him. But after seeing the emperor's sad face, he thought about it and realized that this person might be Lin Xin's son.

The boy whose eyes were red but who did not shed tears when he saw the prince has grown up to be a man.

Judging from his appearance, he seemed to be unmarried. Most of the disciples in the room had started growing beards, except him and a few others.

And he seems to have changed his name.

It was changed to Yannian...

Chen Ping was about to cry when he saw the emperor. He quickly turned around and asked the school supervisor, "Are all the people here?"

The school supervisor nodded, "All ready, all ready."

Qin Ershi looked at the ground. He was no longer in the mood to talk. No one understood the feelings between him and Xin.

Someone who is truly of similar age in soul and with whom you can communicate spiritually.

What's the difference between ancient people and time travelers? In Lin Xin's view, Fusu did not have the loneliness that a time traveler should have.

"Your Majesty, everyone is here. Do you want to say anything to your disciples?"

Qin II looked at Lin Yannian. He stayed alone for a long time and suddenly smiled with ease.

So what if I feel guilty? Will Lin Xin be resurrected?
He was just resenting his past incompetence and entanglements. If he had been more ruthless and locked Ying Zheng up earlier, there wouldn't have been so many messes.

Why is it that he always realizes his mistakes only after a disaster has occurred?

To be honest, the 200,000 soldiers who died in southern Xinjiang would not have died if they had woken up earlier.

Although he knew the history clearly, he always had a sense of luck, always thinking that many things would change after his arrival, and perhaps the Qin army would be able to completely defeat Nanyue.

But the results slapped me in the face again and again.

Qin II still looked at Lin Yannian and smiled.

All the disciples looked at Qin II excitedly, waiting for him to say something enlightening.

In any case, in the eyes of the people, Qin II is a god-like existence.

The disciples were delighted, but when they followed Qin II's gaze, they saw Lin Yannian.

Lin Yannian behaved very calmly and almost looked directly into the emperor's eyes.

But there was no curiosity in his eyes, as if he had known Qin II for a long time.

He was even a little cold towards Qin II.

Qin II raised his sleeves, and his red eyes began to return to normal. "This school was established when Shang Jun was alive, and it has been passed down to this day."

"Today I will give you a message, which was once said by Shang Jun's friend."

"I hope that all students can remember this sentence. Shang Jun's expectations for his students are actually my expectations for my students."

When the disciples heard the emperor mention Shang Jun, their faces changed slightly.

Shang Yang was a revolutionary, a revolutionary who terrified the seven kingdoms.

A person who wants to draw blood from the rich and powerful and give it to the common people.

"The hides of a thousand sheep are not as good as the armpit of a fox; the obedience of a thousand men is not as good as the outspokenness of one scholar."

“There are too many yes-men in this world. Although they live a comfortable life, they are not as valuable as a true adviser.”

“Some people are alive but have long been dead.”

“Some people die but live forever.”

After hearing this, Lin Yannian fell into deep thought.

His big eyes began to become empty again, and he seemed to have gone into another world.

Some people are dead, but they live forever.

Some people are alive, but they have already died.

"I want you to take this sentence as the spirit and each of you write a piece of advice to me."
