Chastity Layman

  Chapter 210 A Prince's Riot Caused by a Chicken

   Chongxian Pavilion.

  Chengqian and Li Tai brothers sat on the playground, each holding a small bag, which contained chicken feed made from locust powder mixed with soybean meal and grass seeds.

   Grab a handful of feed and sprinkle it down, and a few chickens will fly over.

   "Look at your chicken, steal my big flower's food." Li You shouted to the third brother Li Ke dissatisfied.

   "My family's big reeds don't care about yours, I have this." Li Ke smiled and took out a cloth bag from his bag, but inside was the earthworm he dug just now, still wriggling.

  Earthworms are indeed more attractive to chickens than feed. Several chickens scrambled for the first, and even fought.

  Chengqian and Li Tai rushed to help drive away, feeling very distressed for their chicken.

These chickens were all hatched by Qin Lang taking them to do experiments before. At that time, one person divided the eggs, and each person claimed the chickens after they hatched. Qin Lang gave them the chickens and asked them to feed them personally. They observe the growth of these chicks every day, and also write chicken diaries.

  The chicks are all well raised, and now each one weighs at least three or four catties.

After raising them for a long time, they have feelings. Now they all regard these chickens as pets. The students of Chongxian Hall have a chicken in hand. They observe and write diaries about raising chickens every day. Those who care about raising chickens are indeed better than others. Well, all fat and shiny.

  Some hens raised by students have even begun to lay eggs.

   "Don't **** my earthworms, they belong to my reeds." Li Ke shouted.

   "Don't be so stingy."

   "That's right, who told you to secretly dig for earthworms, and even cook your chickens!"

  ·······

  Li Cunxiao rang the bell for class.

   Everyone reluctantly sprinkled some feed, then got up and went to class.

  Chu Suiliang walked into the classroom with a notebook and a chalk box.

   "Let me tell you something before the class. The weather is getting colder. Everyone should remember to add clothes. There is one more thing. The museum has decided that the chickens will not be raised. Tomorrow, the chickens will be killed in batches, and then made into smoked chickens for consumption."

  One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

   Hearing that the chicken they had raised for several months was going to be killed, Cheng Qian and others were not happy about it. This is their pet, and they have feelings for it.

   "Don't kill my reed flower!" Han Wang Li Ke shouted.

  Other students also objected one after another, and rebelled in class.

  Chu Suiliang's face was dark.

   "Silence!"

   "Chickens are just poultry after all, and they are eaten when they are fattened up, otherwise they are a waste of food."

   "No!" Li Tai gritted his teeth and objected.

  Chu Suiliang said, "Don't be childish."

  In his eyes, why don’t chickens be eaten after being fattened up? Are they really treated as pets every day? Don't get used to this bad point of view!

  In fact, when he came in for class, the library had already sent people to catch the chickens of the students.

   "Okay, class is now, everyone is quiet!"

  A calligraphy class, more than a hundred students in the hall, all absent-minded.

  When the bell finally rang for the end of get out of class, all the students rushed to the playground to find their own chickens, but they didn’t find a single chicken, only a lot of chicken feathers.

   "My reed flower!"

  When Li Ke recognized the feathers of his reed chicken, he sat down on the ground and burst into tears.

  Many children were crying.

  Li Tai came to the kitchen and found that the necks of the chickens had been cut and bled, and someone was boiling water to pluck the chicken feathers.

   "My big white!"

  Li Tai finally found his white-haired rooster, but at this moment, how could Dabai still have the slightest sparkle? There was even a little bit of bright red chicken blood on the white feathers.

   "Dabai!"

  Li Tai held up Dabai, crying heartbroken.

  The handymen who plucked chicken feathers looked at this scene, all panicked.

   How to kill a few chickens is the same as killing the relatives of these children.

  More students found the kitchen and found these chickens, all sad and angry.

  Li Tai took the lead, rioted and rebelled, took other children and smashed the kitchen, then took his own chicken, dug a pit and buried them in the back of the school hall, and even found a wooden board to write an inscription for them.

  When Qin Lang heard the news, he was still in the Xiande Hall of the East Palace, discussing with Li Shimin the recruitment standards, food and salaries of the imperial army.

  Qin Lang was stunned.

   Li Shimin was also stunned.

  Students in Chongxian Hall smashed up the kitchen and cafeteria, buried chickens and erected monuments?

   "What's going on, let me explain in detail!" Li Shimin was annoyed.

   After listening to the report, Li Shimin looked at Qin Lang with an unfriendly expression.

  Qin Lang thought to himself, you should go find Chu Suiliang, I didn't ask him to kill the chicken.

   "Your Majesty, Bachelor Chu Zhi made some mishandling, which hurt the feelings of the students."

  In the end, Li Shimin said angrily, "You taught the feelings of fart well. The children you teach dare to smash up the school for a chicken and bury it for the chicken? Don't they usually eat chicken or eggs?"

  The emperor also felt that Li Tai and the others had been taught badly, how could they do such a thing for a chicken?

  Qin Lang was stunned.

After he heard about this, his first reaction was that what Chu Suiliang and the others did was wrong. After all, although the chicken was the object of the experiment class, the children are still young, and it is normal for them to have feelings after raising chickens. You have to communicate with the children first, everything has a process.

  You just killed the chickens, bled them, plucked their feathers, and scalded them with boiling water. How cruel.

   This is probably a big shock to the young minds of children of a few years old.

   But unexpectedly, Li Shimin also had the same idea as Chu Suiliang and the others, thinking that the students made a fuss out of a molehill.

Li Shimin rushed to the Chongxian Hall in a hurry, but what he saw was the rows of small graves behind the library hall of the Chongxian Hall, and there were pieces of wood and stone tombstones. They personally buried their chickens, A monument was erected, and an epitaph was written on it.

   There are also some little guys who actually found bamboo poles, branches, etc., and got white cloth strips, etc., and put them in front of the chicken grave, and wanted to call out the tree banners for the chicken.

   "Bastard!"

   "Push all of these, dig out those chickens, cook them all for lunch today, and let them eat!" Li Shimin roared.

Too cruel.

  Qin Lang hurried forward.

   "Your Majesty, absolutely not, the children are young, don't hurt their feelings."

   "What kind of feelings? The chickens were raised and buried instead of being eaten? Is this the ancestor?" Li Shimin's face darkened.

"Your Majesty, children have a process of cognition about things. It is because the Chongxian Hall did not guide them well that they have such a result. It is not the children who are at fault. This only shows that they are kind-hearted in nature. It is us teachers who are at fault. , did not guide and educate well.”

   "Your Majesty, please punish me for my negligence of duty. Your Majesty, please hand over these children to me for education!"

  Li Shimin's blue veins bulged.

  He is furious because he feels that his sons are pedantic, and they dare not even kill a chicken. What is the use of such a person growing up?

   Finally persuaded Li Shimin to leave.

  Qin Lang summoned Chu Suiliang and other direct scholars and other staff and servants in the library. Looking at the children lined up to protect the chicken graves, Qin Lang did not lead anyone to level these chicken graves.

   "Students, the chicken raising experiment class is over today."

   Silence.

  The kids are still angry.

  Although the emperor's angry expression just now made them panic, but the emperor left, the anger returned.

   "I want to apologize to you, and also on behalf of the Chongxian Museum, we did not do it properly." Qin Lang bowed to Chengqian and the others to apologize.

   "What's the use of apologizing, a dead chicken can't be resurrected!" Li Tai was still angry.

  Qin Lang looked at those small graves.

   "Students, I forgot to teach you a class."

   "Now, let's make up this lesson for you here!"

   "Students, cats eat fish and dogs eat meat, cattle and sheep eat grass, tigers and wolves eat cattle and sheep, locusts eat crops, chickens and ducks eat locusts, who can tell me why?"

   No one answered Qin Lang.

"Let me tell you, this shows that all things are born in nature, natural selection, and it's about the food chain. What is the food chain? This is about the fact that each creature must instinctively feed on other creatures in order to maintain its own life. form a link."

   "For example, hares eat grass, foxes eat hares, wolves eat foxes, locusts eat crops, chickens eat locusts, and humans eat chickens! It's all the same."

"Humans are at the top of the food chain. We eat vegetables and meat. We eat everything that flies in the sky, crawls on the ground, and swims in the river. Chickens are domesticated poultry by humans. The original purpose of raising chickens is to eat. It is one of our basic human needs..."

"I know that everyone has done this chicken experiment, got along with these chickens day and night, and developed some feelings, but we must also be clear that chickens are food. We hatch from an egg, and then raise it from a furry chick to feed it , watching it grow up, and then slaughtering and eating meat after it grows up. For the chicken, this is a completeness. For the person who raises it, this is also a manifestation of value. We must have kind thoughts towards everything in the world. , but not too pedantic."

"As long as we don't abuse and kill this chicken with evil intentions, and don't waste this chicken, then this grown chicken will enter people's stomachs, which will be the best end of its fate. Now you bury this chicken in the soil, In the end, they were only eaten by maggots. For these chickens, their lives have not played their due value. They lived and died for nothing..."

"Students, we should be in awe of life, and we should also cherish labor. Do you know that this year's drought and locust plagues have continued, and there have been foreign Turkic invasions. How many people can't even eat enough? What they eat is not as good as your chickens. Knowing this chicken, can a poor and hungry family live?"

   "Students, what do you think, should this chicken be buried in the soil and eaten by maggots, or should it be sent to the victims to feed their lives?"

   No one answered.

  Qin Lang knew what he said, but he was actually avoiding talking about other things directly. The students are now angry because of their relationship with the chicken, but Qin Lang avoided talking about other things.

   "Chengqian, you are the crown prince and the heir apparent of the country. Do you agree with putting people first?"

   "Do you think that in the current disaster situation, we should give this chicken to the victims to eat and help them, or let this chicken just be buried in the soil. Which one do you think is more valuable and meaningful?"

   Chengqian bowed his head.

   "Your Highness?"

   "Bachelors should be people-oriented."

   "Your Highness is kind, so would Your Highness allow me to dig out these chickens, wash them and send them to feed the victims?"

   Li Tai was extremely angry at first, but after hearing this, he didn't feel shaken.

   "Teacher, I am willing."

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness, King Wei. The Buddhists once had the act of cutting meat to feed eagles. Now, you students donate the chickens you raised to the victims of the disaster. This is a great kindness. These chickens are useful for saving the lives of the victims. The short lives of these chickens will be of great value."

   "Scholar Chu Zhi!"

  Chu Suiliang stepped forward, "Scholar Qin."

   "I would like to ask you to write a memorial to these chickens of the students, and then set up a monument here, and engrave your memorial on it, to commemorate the kindness of the students and the short but valuable life of these chickens."

   Chicken Sacrifice essay, Chu Suiliang did not expect Qin Lang to ask him to write this, but in the end he had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree.

The students' emotions were finally appeased. Under the leadership of Chengqian and Li Tai, a group of children took the initiative to dig out the chickens that had just been buried, because as Xueshi Qin said, these chickens would save the lives of the victims. , and become great and extraordinary, this is the greatest appreciation for their chickens.

  Looking at the chickens that were dug out, Qin Lang secretly wiped the sweat from his head, the children are not easy to fool around.

  Fortunately, in the name of righteousness, otherwise today's matter would not end well.

  Chengqian taught Qin Lang his chicken, "Scholar."

"Your Highness, why don't you send these chickens to the disaster victims yourself?" Qin Lang decided to strike while the iron was hot, and come to a more direct education. He would take these children and these chickens to the outside of the city to comfort the victims. The chickens are delivered to those widowed and lonely old people in person.
