Green Mountain

Princely Heir squatted on the ground and said boldly, "We are discussing major military strategies, something you bookworms wouldn’t understand!"

Chen Wenzong’s breath caught, "How can you achieve anything impactful on military strategy in this messy Liu Family Village?"

Princely Heir laughed happily, "Even if I told you, you wouldn’t understand."

Chen Wenzong said with a firm tone, "How can I understand if you don’t tell me?"

Princely Heir hesitated, "... Mainly because I don’t understand either."

Chen Wenzong muttered, "Princely Heir, you’re quite honest."

Chen Ji glanced at him, "Big brother, if you want to watch, then just stand aside and watch without distracting us. Don’t look down on what we are doing now. The ultimate goal of learning is to apply knowledge to govern and benefit the people; idle talk only misleads the country."

Upon hearing this, Chen Wenzong wanted to get angry. Confucian teaching stresses brotherly respect and humility, but Chen Ji seemed to disregard these principles, not taking his elder brother seriously at all.

However, thinking of the purpose of his visit, he ultimately held back. He did not want to squat on the ground like these people and demean himself, so he stood quietly to the side, waiting to see what trouble this group would stir up.
