"What? My son fainted in school? Didn't he send someone to follow him? How could he faint?" After the Marquise heard the news that her son had fainted in school, she became furious immediately.
Already.
What is her identity? She was also a famous lady in Dorne back then, and her own family was also a famous local noble.
She is well-matched to marry into the Bailu family. That is to say, the Bailu Marquis's net worth has increased along with the Datang Group in recent years, which makes her seem a bit high-spirited.
If it were more than ten years ago, we would not know who had the final say in this family! She slammed the table in anger and decided to go to the school to investigate.
Isn't it just a broken school? If Bailuhou Mansion doesn't give an explanation for this matter, then she will ask her husband to overturn their table!
Even if her husband doesn't care about this matter, she doesn't have her own energy. You know, he has been very close to the prime minister's little wife recently.
Roger, the prime minister, now has a high status, and even His Majesty the Emperor respects him very much. This man who has always been with His Majesty the Emperor has never been married, and now he has finally settled down. The status of the young wife who married into the Prime Minister's Palace is naturally also extraordinary.
.
That girl is also a lovely girl. She hooked up with Prime Minister Roger for some unknown reason. Her family has no background and she is still a commoner girl. She immediately flew up a branch and turned into a phoenix.
In order not to embarrass her husband, the prime minister's wife asked the Marquise to learn court etiquette after getting to know her, hoping that she could attend banquets and other events without embarrassing her husband.
The two of them became best friends as soon as they went back and forth. If you said that there was something wrong with Prime Minister Roger in the Tang Empire, the Marquise would not believe it.
It is precisely because of such many connections that the Marquise has no fear. What's more, this time it was her son who suffered a loss in school. It was their Egret Marquis Mansion that suffered a loss. Originally, a noble like her didn't bully others.
That’s right, now that you’re being bullied, you feel like you’re right and you can use the topic to your advantage.
Isn't this how the facade of aristocrats and the power of privileges are established? Then they have the opportunity to show their power again and again, and finally establish their status, superior to thousands of people.
In the past, the Tang Empire had been trying its best to avoid letting the nobility group rise to prominence. Now it is time for those lowly common people to remember what it means to be a wealthy aristocracy.
Originally, the royal family was the largest aristocracy. How could it be possible to watch the aristocratic group that supported them disappear into ashes?
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she was justified. She was even ready to pick up the phone and chat with her little best friend about home affairs, connect with each other, and then share the same hatred and go to the school to ask questions.
On the other side, Marquis Bailu was discussing cotton business with several businessmen in the Bailu Group office in Chang'an.
Guangmian in the Qin State is a good place for growing cotton, hence the name. Trying to find ways to bring the cotton there, even the cotton from the orc area, to the Tang Empire is the new task Harry gave him.
Despite the seemingly endless fame of Marquis Egret, many people want to meet with any high-ranking official of the Tang Dynasty. The most convenient way is to follow the path of Marquis Egret.
But just like a person who knows when he drinks water, the Marquis Bailu's family has a great cause, but it's not because of being affiliated with the Datang Group and being a pawn of others that he is what he is today?
The huge amount of gold coins that seemed to shock the world was just the tip of the iceberg behind the Datang Group. He worked hard to control the Egret Group to fight in the business world, and any decision he made was a matter of life and death.
After hammering his sore shoulders, Marquis Egret finally ended the meeting and was about to ask his secretary to get him a cup of tea when he received a call from the school.
"Master Marquis, your young master fainted during physical education class." The caller was the dean of the department, who spoke politely: "Maybe the physical education courses in our school are a little too strict, and your young master's physical fitness is not up to par.
request."
Frankly speaking, the moment he heard that his son had a problem in school, Marquis Egret was also very unhappy - he donated more than 1.5 million gold coins and asked for the emperor's face before the child was sent to the school.
Something happened to your place in just one day. You are not taking yourself as a Marquis seriously.
At first he was worried that his son was causing trouble at school, but now that he heard that his child had fainted at school, he instinctively felt very uncomfortable.
However, due to the reputation of the Royal University of Science and Technology, he still stabilized his emotions and maintained the dignity of a qualified noble family head: "That child does lack physical exercise. Your school's strict requirements are right, but he has been spoiled since he was a child...
…You still need to pay more attention to it.”
"It is indeed true. The physical education curriculum is a hard target set by His Majesty himself. All Royal Academy students who cannot complete the paramilitary training will not be able to graduate..." the department head explained, giving the Marquis a bit of humiliation:
"Because of your special status, your master has been placed in the best class in the department, and the requirements are naturally higher."
The main reason he said this was to secretly remind Marquis Egret that his son was taken care of by the school. It was a pity for the school that something like this happened this time.
Another meaning is: if your child can't keep up with the progress of the school, pack up and get out, don't cause trouble for yourself and the school. We only cultivate elites here, please sort the garbage by yourself!
The Marquis of Egret is also a mysterious person, so how can he not understand what the school is about? His son just fainted, not dead. It really made the matter worse, and it would not be of any benefit to him.
Therefore, he instinctively wanted to turn big things into trivial matters - handle things in a low-key manner, sail the ship with caution, and stay afloat is the last word.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Seeing that Marquis Egret was reasonable and didn’t even ask about his child’s situation, the department director also spoke in a warmer tone and chatted casually for a few words before hanging up.
Got the phone call.
The founding of the Tang Dynasty was based on the militarized management and militarized education of schools. All colleges, including the Royal Academy of Arts, required paramilitary training.
All students in school must meet the physical fitness standards, practice stabbing and shooting, and there will be no problem at all if they go out to join the army and fight directly. If you encounter gangsters on the road, if you kill ten of them, it may be an exaggeration, but if you kill three of them, you have a high chance of winning.
.
What's more, the Datang Military Academy, the predecessor of the ten royal academies, had a tradition of dueling with force. Whoever was the boss in the grade would be determined with one punch. The teachers in the school were even happy to see it.
Easy to get out of the way of management.
With such a glorious tradition, we naturally have an idea of what physical education classes in schools are like: the bottom line here is as long as you can’t be beaten to death.
Whether it's Harry, Garza, Dino, You Lin, or Le'er. They all gained their reputations in school with real swords and guns. Now they are in the army with Generals Strauss and Burton.
, back then they were all little brothers who were beaten.
So in this environment, it's nothing if the teacher beats you up, but it's really troublesome when people don't bother to beat you up.
After hanging up the phone, Marquis Egret didn't think it was a problem. He went home at night to encourage his child, and then spent money to reward him so that he could continue his studies tomorrow.
What he didn't expect was that a few minutes later, the phone rang again, and the caller turned out to be an acquaintance.
"Lord Marquis, your fourth young master is really a talented person." The person on the other end of the phone did not tell him his home address, because the other party was sure that the Marquis of Egret could recognize his own voice.
Of course Bailu recognized who the other party was, and smiled a little unnaturally: "Director Li... what do you mean? What trouble did my fourth son get into, and I asked you to call me personally?"
Anyone who receives a call from Leo, the director of the Imperial Security Bureau, will not feel very comfortable. This old man never goes to the Three Treasures Palace for anything, and his words are always so sinister that it makes people uncomfortable.
"You will know what he did soon, but are you ready? Are you ready to be investigated by the Imperial Security Bureau?" Leo still asked unhurriedly.
"What? Director Li!...Don't dare to make this joke! I, I...you...no, what on earth did my son do..." Hearing that it had just been officially named, it was renamed from the National Security Bureau to the Imperial Security Bureau
The head of the intelligence department wanted to investigate him, and Marquis Egret's words were a bit unreasonable.
It’s a joke. How many people who were targeted by the FBI in the United States ended up well? Besides, he still doesn’t know why he was targeted. This is the scariest thing, okay?
"I suspect that you are questioning the national policy of the empire, disobeying His Majesty's orders, and shaking the foundation of the country... In fact, there are no accurate accusations. As an old friend, I will call you in advance to ensure that you don't go astray." Leo.
It was still that annoying tone, which made Marquis Egret tremble with fear.
Leo knew about this matter very quickly, because the Imperial Security Bureau had already deployed personnel in the school, and the few students who had sneaked in through connections were also under his surveillance.
When the fourth son of the Bailu family caused trouble, he received a report from his subordinates. The content was nothing special, and he did not need to deal with it personally.
However, the noble status of Marquis Egret is somewhat sensitive, and the whole matter also reveals some signs that people have to be concerned about.
On the one hand, the position of the nobility had been weakened in the Tang Dynasty. Tang Mo did not give any substantive power to the new nobility of the empire, but only gave them some opportunities to make a fortune.
This is completely different from the aristocratic class in other countries: the aristocrats in the Tang Dynasty were actually severely suppressed and were "rich people" with little influence.
