Chapter Five Hundred and Seventeen: College Canteen

The academy is the talent reserve database of the court. What kind of talents does the imperial court want? In the future, I will go directly to the academy to see if there are suitable people. Wouldn’t it be much easier to save money?

His Majesty Li Er smiled and said, "You."

It has to be said that His Majesty Li Er is full of longing for the future of the academy that Xuan Shijing mentioned. This is a world he has never come into contact with. But now, Xuan Shijing has spread the prototype of this world in front of His Majesty Li Er, how can people not be longing for?

"No wonder you wanted to pull Chengqian and insisted on let Chengqian be the chief of the academy." His Majesty Li Er said. Now, he has understood it thoroughly.

"If possible, I want His Dao Academy to be named after this, but the academy was still small at that time, and it was a waste of people and was no different from the book houses in the countryside. No matter how thick-skinned I am, I can't speak out. I can only rely on my daily friendship with the prince and let the prince help support this storefront."

"Are you paving the way for the prince?" His Majesty Li Er said: "I still speak so well in front of me."

Xuan Shijing bowed and said with a smile: "Your Majesty forgives the crime. You can't use the prince's way to pave it. Your Majesty has been paving for so many years. Your Highness the King of Wu is also paving the way for the prince, and Your Highness the King of Wei is even more so. The ministers in the court are the same, and it is normal for the ministers."

Xuan Shijing did not deny it, but he also shirked it and pulled out so many people in the court to give him a back.

There is nothing to deny about this kind of thing. Now that the ministers of the court are at peace, the position of the crown prince is so solid that it cannot be more solid. Neither the King of Wu nor the King of Wei intend to compete for the crown prince. Even they do not fight for it. No one can pose a threat to the position of Prince Li Chengqian. Therefore, it can be said that assisting the crown prince is open and upright.

Don’t forget that Xuan Shijing is still the prince’s secretary. It is his duty to assist the prince and pave the way for the prince to do his best.

"What a prince and secretary, I'm really giving you the right place." His Majesty Li Er smiled angrily.

This serious illness this year made His Majesty Li Er feel scared and was also considering letting Li Chengqian take over more political affairs gradually to avoid any mistakes in the future. He was familiar with it in advance, and this was always true.

Xuan Shijing accompanied His Majesty Li Er to wander around the academies. It was noon that they all finished.

At noon, Xuan Shijing wanted to take His Majesty Li Er to the restaurant in the village for a meal, but His Majesty Li Er did not agree.

"Where do the students in your academy eat? Take me there." His Majesty Li Er said.

"Your Majesty, students usually eat in the cafeteria, but the cafeteria is open now, but all the students and farmers who came to register should eat there. Your Majesty, this..." Xuan Shijing said in contemplation.

"It's okay, just go there for meals." His Majesty Li Er said.

His Majesty Li Er was curious about everything about the academy and wanted to go and see it. He just wandered around the three academys. He just knew the various uses of the various buildings of the academy. But what exactly it looked like? His Majesty Li Er didn't look at it one by one. Now there is no one in the school, so it doesn't matter if you see it. But the canteen is different. At this time, the canteen is busy. His Majesty Li Er wanted to see what the canteen looked like when there were people in the academy.

"So, please come here for your Majesty." Helplessly, Xuan Shijing took His Majesty Li Er to the cafeteria.

The canteen was originally very spacious, with tables, chairs and benches neatly arranged, but no matter how spacious the canteen was, it could not hold many people. Today, the village households who came to the academy to register with their children, some of the three of them came over. It was time for dinner, and they could only reach the canteen nearest. Therefore, the canteen is very noisy now, and there are long queues in front of the window for buying food.

After His Majesty Li Er came in, he saw the scene in the cafeteria and said with a smile: "The scene is really not small, there are many people."

"Yes, on weekdays, this canteen only serves students and teachers from the academy. There will definitely be no queues in such a long queue. Fortunately, the guards from the minister's house are maintaining order here, otherwise it will be even more chaotic." Xuan Shijing said: "Your Majesty, look at this, why don't we go to the restaurant in Zhuangzi Market for meals. If it's really not possible, you can go to my house."

"Since you're here, just eat here. Are there any empty seats there?" His Majesty Li Er pointed, and then said to Deyi: "Deyi, go and help me take a seat first."

"No." Deyi responded.

The seat that His Majesty Li Er pointed to was not big, and there were a few people sitting next to him. It looked like a family, and he came to sign up with his children, and was eating with relish.

"Jing'er, I'll lend it to me before I bring my money." His Majesty Li Er said to Xuan Shijing about borrowing money.

He is worthy of being the emperor, and he can be said to be so awkward to borrow money.

Xuan Shijing took out more than a dozen coins from his sleeves and put them in His Majesty Li Er's hand.

"That's all?" His Majesty Li Er asked.

"Your Majesty, the money in the mansion is all under the control of Yizi, and the landlord's family has no spare grain." Xuan Shijing smiled and said, "And, this canteen doesn't need much food, otherwise why would the housekeepers all come to the canteen? It's cheap."

The canteen has been doing business with losses. Although it is not much, it is also a loss.

His Majesty Li Er patiently chose a relatively short team and stood behind the village house. Seeing this, Xuan Shijing sighed and could only follow His Majesty Li Er.

Fortunately, he doesn't need money to eat, otherwise it would be really embarrassing today.

He went out today and only went to the book to help with the student admission certificate. He didn't bring much money. The more than ten coins he had given His Majesty Li Er just now were all the possessions he could find out.

Although there were many people queuing up, the chefs in the canteen were also very efficient. In half a quarter of an hour, it was His Majesty Li Er's turn. His Majesty Li Er stood in front of the window and looked at the food prepared in the canteen. Although there were not many left now, it could be seen that the dishes were very rich.

Two vegetarian food and one meat, plus a bowl of rice, it cost a total of thirteen copper coins from His Majesty Li Er. The price is indeed not expensive. Don’t forget that there are meat dishes, which are real pig meat, and the meat slaughtered by pigs in the village.

His Majesty Li Er spent money, Xuan Shijing swept his face and ordered two meat and one vegetable. This morning, Xuan Shijing just wanted to eat more meat and replenish it.

Following His Majesty Li Er, he came to the position that Deyi had occupied for them. Xuan Shijing and His Majesty Li Er sat opposite him.

In the cafeteria, there are not so many rules, and there is nothing to do with such an environment.
