Chapter 248(2/2)

"I also hesitated, until one day, a little woman said something to me! It made me suddenly wake up!"

Everything that happened during the Shangsi Festival is still vivid in my mind.

Heifu said: "She said that when the emperor builds virtue, he is given a surname and a surname for his land. The surname is not there from the beginning. It is the ancient princes, ministers, and officials who have made meritorious services and been granted the title.

Taking a fiefdom as a surname, for example, Anlu was once the ancient Yun Kingdom, and that’s how the Yun family came into existence..."

"Nowadays, it is long past the age of feudal states and the founding of a country. The Qin State is not a country where relatives and respecters are respected. They no longer look at the origin of their ancestors, but are awarded military titles. Those who have made great achievements will be respected, and they will be rewarded when they see their merits.

I will be awarded an official title if I am capable. Therefore, I should be proud of the merits I have made with my own hands, and do not need to be ashamed of not having a family name!"

"well said!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was extremely excited. It really expressed the feelings of those who started from humble beginnings. Times have changed. Could it be that the merits earned with hard work are not as good as the surname inherited from birth?

?Even Li Xian, who is a branch of the Li family, deeply agrees.

Heifu waited for everyone to finish cheering, and then said: "However, I still want to earn a family name for myself. After all, Heifu is always a doctor, and Heifu County Lieutenant's name is not pleasant. It just so happens that in Qin State, there are still people like this

Chance!"

Everyone looked confused, except Li Xian whose expression changed slightly, and he had already guessed what Hei Fu meant.

"That's right."

Heifu drank another cup, threw the cup and laughed and said: "I no longer want to be just a county guard. My current ambition is to one day be able to make a meritorious service and become a marquis! And it is not the Marquis of Guannei, but the Marquis of Che! From this, I can get

A food fiefdom. At that time, I will use the fiefdom to give myself a clan! I will not cling to anyone and create a clan with my own hands!"

"I don't want to be someone else's grandson, I want to be the ancestor of Huang Kao!"

If Heifu's words quoted by the governor's daughter had cheered everyone up, then his revelation of his ambition to become a marquis really shocked everyone present and was speechless.

"Marquis!"

Xiao Tao stammered for a long time without saying anything. He looked at Hei Fu with admiration and almost fell to his knees.

Dongmen Bao, who was satisfied with just having a son, opened his mouth wide, and his outlook was greatly shocked.

Ji Ying, who had been content with getting a doctor in his life, rubbed his eyes, was this really the "black husband brother" he met on the bank of Yunmeng Ze?

And Li Xian, who wanted to be a county captain, suddenly felt that his pursuit was like a cloud compared to Heifu's ambition!

"Fenghou..."

He was shocked and speechless for a long time. What Heifu said was far beyond his imagination. After a while, he muttered to himself: "Is this... really possible?"

“It can be done!”

Hei Fu glanced at the people present, patted his chest and said: "Hei Fu, who has no family name and no surname, and comes from the ranks of soldiers in the capital of Guizhou, will prove one thing to the world with the reward of becoming a prince!"

He secretly said in his heart: "Chen Sheng, I'm sorry", and then he said it loudly. It belongs to this great era of pursuing success and profit, and every man should have such heroic words!

"Would you rather be a prince, general or prime minister?"



In an unknown poverty-stricken village in Huaibei, the distant state of Chu, a young Chu man, about the same age as Heifu's younger brother Jing, was wearing tattered brown clothes and was hoeing in the fields under the scorching sun. He was working hard.

Sweating profusely.

After bending down to work for a long time, he suddenly put down the farm tools, showing a trace of depression.

"When will this day end?"

Farming is hard work, not to mention that the land is not Chen Sheng's own. Last year, Yangcheng was turned into a battlefield, so Chen Sheng had no choice but to move out of his hometown and traveled around Huaibei in search of food.

He was separated from his clan and was reduced to working as a servant in the fields. He finally settled down here, but no matter the weather, he was called to work right after the rooster crow, and every meal only consisted of gruel and stinky sauce.

Humiliation and unwillingness linger in the heart of this pretentious young man who has lost everything.

While resting on the ridge with the farmers who farmed with them, everyone drank turbid water and talked about things after the autumn harvest. Most of them were just eating and waiting to die. They lived day by day without mentioning anything.

ambition.

When Chen Sheng heard this, he suddenly felt lost. He stood up suddenly and said to everyone: "As long as you are rich and noble, you will never forget each other!"

Everyone was silent for a long time, and then burst into contemptuous laughter.

"Chen Sheng, you and I are both farm servants. As long as we don't starve to death, how can we talk about wealth?"

Chen Sheng was humiliated and blushed. He turned away and walked to the center of the field amidst the ridicule of the cultivators. He looked at the geese flying in the western sky and felt extremely lonely. Chang Tai sighed and said:
