Chapter 233: Prime Minister Song, you must blame me for setting you up against enemies
Yet, nothing happens to him, the Emperor shows no sign of anger.
Glancing at Emperor Chu, Eunuch Zhou thought perhaps the Emperor appreciated Prime Minister Song’s casual and down-to-earth conversations?
"Raising a child without discipline is like killing him, have you already made your eldest son work?" Emperor Chu retorted.
Song Zhiyuan didn’t blink and replied, "My son is still young, only thirteen, still studying. But, I have given him an estate to manage himself; the harvests come to him and are stored in his private treasury."
Emperor Chu was taken aback, "How does he manage?"
"He manages it however it should be managed; whether well or poorly, it’s his own affair. If he can’t manage an estate, how can he govern people when he holds office in the future? Even as a wealthy idle person, he should understand the value of grains and how to manage accounts, so he won’t be deceived by his subordinates."
