Li Chen's first opening sentence ignited the enthusiasm of the students present.
In the ancient feudal society where everything was under one roof, even though the people were the most important, the country was the second most important, and the emperor was the least important, everyone still recognized that the entire country and country belonged to the emperor alone.
This is the first time that Li Chen has said in such a formal public occasion that the hope of the country and the world lies solely in the students.
And these words also made the young students who still have blood flowing in their chests, dreams in their hearts, and light in their eyes feel excited that they can change the world.
At this time, Li Chen's second sentence immediately followed.
"There is an old saying that learning is like hard work, and you will know yourself if you are diligent and lazy, but if you make more kinds of books, you will have good years."
"You are all elite students selected from all over the country, so your knowledge is naturally not low. You should also understand the meaning of these words."
"The imperial court is responsible for providing you with the best environment so that you can study, study, and practice without any worries. Your food, clothing, housing, and transportation are all the responsibility of the imperial court, and all you have to do is study, study, and practice.
, strengthen yourself, let yourself develop skills and abilities, and one day, your knowledge and skills will be used in national construction, which will benefit all people and the country!"
"Maybe this process is boring, maybe you will experience a lot of temptations, setbacks, tribulations, fall into self-doubt, and wonder if all this is useful."
"Now I can tell you that these are the difficulties that you must overcome in your growth experience. What you have learned will be useful, and your efforts will be rewarded. This is my promise to you on behalf of the court and the royal family.
.”
"Maybe when the wind and snow blow to my bones, I can keep a light in my heart until the spring breeze comes and the mountain flowers bloom in full bloom."
Li Chen's words were very resounding.
Every word passed into the ears of the students, making them excited, as if they had thousands of emotions in their chests, and they wanted to scream to the sky to vent them.
Pointing to the boulder in the middle of the square, Li Chen said loudly: "The entire Royal Academy, from project establishment to site selection to construction, was completed today. The buildings that you think are exquisite and complex are actually not as meaningful as this boulder."
"Thousands of years ago, the Confucian sage Confucius traveled through Mount Tai and gave lectures at the Apricot Flower Altar. Legend has it that when Confucius was lecturing, tigers, leopards, and poisonous insects came out of the mountain, carrying melons and fruits in their mouths to repay the sage for his wisdom. After that, the Apricot Flower Altar
Then it was renamed Lecture Hall."
"Stories from thousands of years ago have become legends passed down by people orally, and characters from that time have also become symbols in history, or names in books."
"However, I still sent people to search for historical sites. They found the Lecture Hall and this huge stone. Legend has it that Saint Kong once sat on this huge stone to give lectures."
"This huge stone weighs 6,700 kilograms. I spent a lot of manpower and material resources to transport it from Mount Tai. The cost is unimaginable."
"Later, I felt that just a stone was not enough, so I carved four words on it. These four words are given to all of you by me."
Everyone turned around and looked at the huge stone with the four characters "Don't forget your original intention" carved in gold lacquer.
In fact, many people have seen these four words for a long time, but most of them don't understand what they mean.
