Chapter four hundred and seventy first loving father and strict teacher
Emperor, emperor, emperor... emperor?
At that moment, young Fang Qing was completely stunned.
Although two dignified princes, the third prince and the fourth prince, actually came to take the Jiuzhangtang exam today, this incident had already given him a huge impact. So when he found out that the third prince actually performed bravely in the first group of interviews, he and the past were summoned.
Like in Ming Academy, he was outspoken and said the wrong thing. But in the past, when he was trying to win over the rich kids, he was almost always successful, but this time he actually overturned.
But now, the emperor actually appears here. If the supreme king knows about his outrageous questioning just now, and gets angry and accuses him, what should he do?
However, no one could care about how frightened Fang Qing was feeling at this moment. Zhou Jijiu and Luo Siye were shocked that the emperor actually came in person, and were not afraid that the news would spread and cause discussion inside and outside the court.
, I could only rush forward to greet him in a hurry.
When Yue Bufan was surprised when he heard Zhou Jijiu's exclamation, he could not help but once again raise the status of the two little princes in the room in the eyes of the emperor.
If it were him, even if his beloved young son wanted to take the exam at his own Zhaoming Academy and become a disciple of another teacher, he would never lose his temper like this... A king and a father, shouldn't he be a king first and then a father?
When you come to the emperor, you become a father first and then a king?
As for the other students from Zhaoming Academy and the scholars who had not yet dispersed, most of them were stunned at the moment. No one expected to encounter the emperor, just like no one expected that the third prince had just
They would show bravery. And under the watchful eyes of those warriors in civilian clothes, no one dared to make any misunderstanding. They were all as honest as quails.
The emperor only nodded perfunctorily to Zhou Jijiu and Luo Siye, and then just glanced at everyone in a normal way, and then immediately looked into the Jiuzhang Hall. Only a few people could be seen in the hall.
Ji Shu's back, thinking that today was an interview, he couldn't help but frowned in confusion, and then coughed.
"Sanlang and Shilang insisted on taking the Jiuzhangtang exam. Although I granted their wish, I thought that their combined age might not be as good as others, so I was really worried, so I took advantage of the Imperial Academy's open day to come and have a look.
Look."
Your Majesty, the words "taking advantage of the Imperial College's open day" are redundant! Who doesn't know that you care about your beloved son... If you had been so attentive to the eldest prince and the second prince in the past, the two brothers probably would not have become like this.
Son!
Zhou Jijiu secretly complained, but it was inconsistent with his personality to directly admonish him in person, so he just said with a smile: "Dr. Zhang just suddenly changed the interview rules and divided everyone into eight groups...
..." He first explained the situation of drawing lots, and when he saw that the emperor was surprised that the third and fourth princes were actually placed at one end, he got to the point.
"The Third Prince was very good just now. He stumped the others with just a few casual questions, but he was very quick in thinking when answering the questions. Dr. Zhang is obviously very fond of him as a student..." Whether Zhang Shou likes the Third Prince, Zhou Ji
Jiu didn't know it at all, so he only mentioned one sentence and recited the question given by the third prince with great interest. After all, the question scared him.
He can be regarded as someone who read through "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" because of Zhang Shou, but as soon as he did the math, he almost became confused!
After listening to the first question, the emperor's expression became a little subtle. After listening to the eight questions from the third prince - of course including the extremely difficult question that the elder brother did not give in to his younger brother, as a student of Ge Yong, he also
I couldn't help but rub my eyebrows.
He had always thought that because of the third prince's character, he was indecisive and hesitant when things happened, and he was spoiled to a point of being spoiled and naive, he would be tricked to death when he grew up. But today, when he saw it, the man he once thought was
The son who is weak and can be bullied will actually use all kinds of martial arts to deceive others in order to achieve his own goals! Very good, he doesn't have to worry about it in the future!
Zhou Jijiu pondered the change in the emperor's face, and then briefly explained the reason for Zhang Shou's current test. While he was speaking, Luo Siye stood silently aside, let alone introducing Yue Bufan, the Zhao Ming
The president of the academy is so old that he doesn't even have a straight face to be shown in front of the emperor.
Not only was Yue Bufan not dissatisfied with this, he was even grateful that the two of them had attracted the emperor's attention for him.
If it weren't for Fang Qing, a student who made his own decisions, he would be just an idler who came to the Imperial Academy to watch the excitement. Even if he was asked by the emperor, he could explain everything clearly in just a few words. But with Fang Qing, he would easily be
He thought he was here to compete with Zhang Shou - even though the things he was good at had nothing to do with Zhang Shou!
However, even though Zhou Jijiu's words were humorous, Luo Siye pretended to be a fool, and Chief Yue Shan wished he could not exist, among the people present, those scholars were certainly an indispensable sight on every opening day of the Imperial College, but...
But there are also people who dress differently and attract attention.
When the emperor caught a glimpse of the strong man in military uniform next to Chief Yue Shan from the corner of his eye, he suddenly turned around to face the person and asked with great interest: "Who are you? Could it be that people who are studying martial arts nowadays also want to enter the Imperial College?
What?"
The captain finally found a chance to speak openly, and he immediately smiled and said: "The villain is Liao Chang, the first battalion of the Xuanwu Gate Guard Camp, who has met the emperor. The villain has a duty, and he should never have come to the Imperial Academy.
Yes, but today at Xuanwu Gate, I met the Chief Yue Shan of Zhaoming Academy and his entourage holding a guide to guide the pass, so I volunteered to escort him into the city. Unexpectedly, Chief Yue Shan said he wanted to visit the Imperial College."
As soon as these words came out, although Zhou Jijiu scolded the talkative little leader of the city gate guards half to death in his heart, he still wanted to say a few words for Chief Yue Shan, so he squeezed out a smile and said:
"When Luo Siye and I came over, Chief Yue Shan was watching Jiuzhangtang's enrollment... He and I are old acquaintances..."
Before Zhou Jijiu could finish his words, the emperor stretched out his hand to interrupt him, and then looked at Chief Yue Shan with a smile, and said with a smile: "It turns out to be the famous Chief Yue Shan. I almost missed you as a high-ranking scholar just now."
Chief Yue Shan was not sure whether the word "emperor" was sarcastic, so he could only step forward and bow his head and say rudely: "As soon as I entered the capital, I came to join in the fun. It is indeed my whim. I came from a humble background and have been farming for three generations.
It is only through the teachings of my ancestors that we are here today, so I have achieved great success in my interest and knowledge. Therefore, I can barely be called a high scholar, and this sect..."
He straightened up, smiled and said: "If we look at it from a teacher's point of view, I, the headmaster of Zhaoming Academy, can be said to come from a famous family, but from a family background, I'm afraid I can't even be considered a poor family, and can only be considered a farmer.
"
No matter who you are, you will inevitably be nervous when meeting you for the first time. However, at this time, Chief Yue Shan behaved in an elegant manner and was so confident that he could even be called arrogant. While Zhou Jijiu and Luo Siye secretly admired him, they could not help but feel jealous of some of their colleagues. Be careful, but among the other people watching the fun, there are naturally some who are upset by him, thinking that he is worthy of being a famous person in the south.
Especially the other students of President Yue Shan, they all held their heads high and chest high at this time, as if doing so would bring glory to others. As expected, the emperor didn't seem to mind someone boasting so much in front of him. Instead of taking it personally, he actually smiled. A smile.
"Heroes have always been independent of their origins, and there are talents in the wild countryside. Yue Shan has cultivated many talents over the years. Now there are many talents all over the world, and this person is worthy of the word "high-ranking scholar"." The emperor smiled and pulled his finger. He tugged at his beautiful mustache, and then asked enthusiastically, "What do you think of coming to see this fun today? How about my Sanlang Shiro?"
Is this question asked directly in public?
Yue Shanchang, who met the emperor for the first time today, felt that he had been refreshed once again. He could clearly feel that the eyes of the people around him were focused on him. No matter whether he said it was good or bad, maybe it was not So safe. Because some of these people may admire him, but some may be hostile to him!
Therefore, he immediately said without hesitation: "I am ignorant, I only think that the third prince and the fourth prince are both true-hearted people."
The words "true temperament" are used to evaluate the prince. In fact, most of the time they are not good words. However, the emperor admired these three words very much. At this time, he smiled so much that he even narrowed his eyes: "Yes, you have good eyesight. .My two sons have been spoiled since they were young, and they are a bit ignorant. In addition, one of them is smart and the other is honest, and I don’t know how much trouble they have caused."
"If they could restrain their true temperament, I, as a father, would probably have less headaches." At this point, the emperor himself didn't notice it, and there was a kind of fatherly warmth on his face.
Just when he was about to ask a few more questions, hoping to hear more words of praise for his son from the famous headmaster of Zhaoming Academy, he suddenly heard a burst of copper bells coming from inside, followed by It's Zhang Shou's voice.
"Okay, the time is up. Lu Sanlang, you go collect the papers."
Of course, Zhang Shou did not miss the commotion outside, because Ah Liu also entered the Imperial Academy today. As soon as the emperor showed up, he got Ah Liu's warning. Not only the emperor, but also the Zhaoming Academy who suddenly appeared before The inappropriate words of Chief Yue Shan and one of his students, as well as the words that Chief Yue Shan later admonished his students, were all well known to Ah Liu because he was an easy-going person.
At this moment, he watched Lu Sanlang collect the papers one by one, read them one by one, and mark them with his ink pen, then approved the scores on the spot. Then Lu Sanlang reported out one with understanding. In terms of personal scores, some are happy and some are sad. Those who get three points or even five points are in high spirits, while those who get only one point or even zero are dejected.
After picking up another paper and correcting it several times, Zhang Shou stared at the name for a moment, and then he laughed: "The third prince is good. He got three questions right. Although he didn't exceed the quota, he still got three points." It’s sure to arrive.”
Although Zhang Shou didn't say it clearly, Lu Sanlang was already beaming with joy. Coupled with the third prince's excellent interview results before, there is absolutely no doubt that he will be admitted to Jiuzhangtang this time!
When the third prince heard Zhang Shou's compliment, even though he was usually shy and would not dance with joy at this time, he couldn't help but wave his fist, and then he suppressed his voice and cheered softly.
And his completely childish reaction also made the adults who were a little wary of this insidious child have different expressions for a moment. Only Ji Jiu, who had been classmates with the third prince for a while, knew that after taking off the burden,
, the third prince has turned back into the weak little prince.
After reporting the results of several more people, Zhang Shou looked at the paper in his hand, found Ji Jiu in the crowd, and then said casually: "Ji Jiulang, you can get four questions right, which shows that you are very good these days.
You’re really attentive.”
Although Ji Jiu was indeed somewhat confident in his achievements, he was still ecstatic when he heard Zhang Shou's affirmation. He subconsciously wanted to celebrate his breakthrough, but he caught a glimpse of Zhang Shou's face.
With a half-smiling expression, he remembered his attempt to let the fourth prince pass, and he immediately did not dare to act rashly.
At that moment, he stood up directly, bowed deeply and said: "Students have done many things wrong in the past. Thanks to the teacher who never gave up and repeatedly helped us, we are where we are today. In the future, we must concentrate on learning and concentrate on it!"
Regarding Ji Jiu's words of determination, Zhang Shou was noncommittal. He waved his hand and ordered people to sit down. Then he smiled and said: "This is a special case. Don't follow Ji Jiu's example and flatter him. If you have achievements, you owe it to your teacher. If you have any mistakes, you should blame others."
Students, there are no such rules here. If you have grades and merit, those are yours; if there are mistakes or even guilt, those are also yours."
After saying this with a pun, he said loudly: "Of course, if you have done nothing wrong, you will be accused without reason; or if you speak out and tell the truth but offend others; or according to me,
You were told to do something, but in the end you were blamed... Then, no matter who the person you offend is, I will definitely protect you!"
"As a teacher, if you can't protect your students from wind and rain and allow them to study peacefully and wholeheartedly, then you don't deserve to be called a teacher!"
Outside Jiuzhang Hall, the emperor nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and then said proudly: "Zhang Shou is worthy of being the teacher's close disciple, my junior brother. His style is exactly the same as that of the teacher. A teacher, a person who imparts knowledge and resolves doubts."
Yes. However, as a teacher, the more important thing is to protect your students who have good character and talent, and never take the blame for trouble!"
If Chief Yue Shan hadn't been very sure that Zhang Shou had not come out since he had just entered, and no one had left the Jiuzhang Hall, he would have suspected that Zhang Shou heard these words from outside, so he said them specifically to him.
At this moment, although he still had a smile on his face and looked calm, his mood was gradually getting worse.
Not only because Zhang Shou's words were ironic to him, but also because the third prince was likely to enter Jiuzhang Hall.
But at this moment, his ears caught a completely unexpected sentence: "Fourth Prince, although you did seven of the twenty questions in total, you only got two questions right."
