Compared with the people of the Zhu family in Duke Zhao's mansion, it was already the next morning when Zhang Shou learned about the anecdotal news that was making a lot of noise.
He had also doubted whether he had heard wrongly, but the person who came to deliver the news in person was none other than Lu Sanlang. Of course he would not doubt that this shrewd little fat man was spreading rumors and spreading rumors. As expected, the fat man confirmed the news from his father himself.
He said that, and then added some exaggeration to the news, which caused a violent reaction in the capital, and then he sneered.
"My father said that the man surnamed Hong was crazy about being famous and would not hesitate to push his daughter into the pit of fire. For a person with the character of the eldest prince, even if you let the fairy from heaven come down to earth, it is impossible for him to change, because he
His nature is completely bad!"
"And I sent people to inquire about it. There are several explanations for what Hong did. Some people said that Hong valued etiquette and orderliness. The eldest prince is of royal blood, even if he commits a crime.
You can't live without a wife. And in order to prevent others from having to lose a daughter because of his petition, he simply sent his daughter away with dignity."
"There is another theory that the daughter surnamed Hong is not a fuel-saving lamp, so he plans to marry the eldest prince, let them work together to reverse the current predicament, and then let the eldest prince make a change.
, find a way to get out of Zongzheng Temple. Although the emperor has been deposed, the eldest prince is the eldest son after all, so he may not have no chance."
When the eloquent Lu Sanlang saw that Zhang Shou didn't say anything, he immediately came up with the third argument he had heard about: "Some people even said that the man surnamed Hong just wanted to tell the emperor that if the eldest prince did not get married, he would inevitably be said to be a ruthless father.
As long as the eldest prince is given a virtuous and virtuous wife, the emperor will have fulfilled his benevolence. He does not want the eldest prince to release Zongzheng Temple, but hopes that the emperor will maintain the original sentence."
"In this way, the emperor's majesty and justice will not lose his kindness and kindness, and no one in the world can say anything about it."
Seeing that Zhang Shou had an expression as if he had a toothache after hearing this last argument, Lu Sanlang spread his hands and said: "Sir, you have also seen that people with such a good reputation are extremely cruel! And this
Things have been done... who can say anything?"
"Is it possible that you are saying that Hong, the dignified head of Yuzhang Academy, and the daughter of a dignified gentleman, is not good enough to match a eldest prince who is imprisoned for committing a crime? If you go by the third argument I heard about, he is planning to get involved with one
My daughter will spend her whole life in prison with the eldest prince! This is simply... Anyway, this kind of father is 10,000 times worse than my father!"
Zhang Shou took a deep breath and then decided...not to think about it! Others are willing to push his daughter into the pit of fire. As an outsider, even if he despises this so-called celebrity, is it possible for him to object? How to object?
Emperor, your son is such a bastard, why shouldn't he get married and have children, causing harm to others and giving birth to bad descendants? As a noble man named Hong, don't push your daughter into the fire pit and harm her for life? Haha, unless the person involved fights against this kind of noisy matter, there is no way.
People can manage.
So, he directly signaled Lu Sanlang, who was still planning to continue to be angry, to stop, and said expressionlessly: "It's their business to marry their daughter, and it has nothing to do with us. Okay, please tidy up your clothes carefully and show me your best
Come in good spirits and don't lose face as a senior. From today on, you are the captain of the second grade class. It is the first time for the first graders to attend class. You should set an example."
Yes, this is the first day of class for the first-grade students of Jiuzhang Hall. At this time, more than thirty people are wearing the robes of the supervisors, but they are all different in height, fat and thin, and their ages are even different.
The eldest prison student is already in his early forties, and the youngest is the third prince. When they entered the classroom early in the morning and found each other's names and sat down, there was naturally a commotion.
However, there was only one person beside him, and others did not dare to approach him rashly. That was the third prince. Seeing that the third prince was somewhat lonely, Ji Jiu took the lead and walked forward with a smile. Sure enough, as soon as he recognized his former classmate, The third prince suddenly burst out into a happy smile.
He was shy at a young age, but his smile was pure and clean. Unknowingly, several young people came closer. Ji Jiu knew very well that the emperor was willing to let people go to Jiuzhang Hall, and Zhang Shou was willing to take people in. Jiuzhangtang definitely didn’t want these students to really treat people as princes and keep them at a distance, so he smiled and said: “Third prince, it’s been a long time since we said goodbye in Banshan Hall...”
"It's not the third prince, it's Zheng Rong." The third prince corrected Ji Jiu's title seriously.
Thinking that even Zhang Shou was reluctant to call him by his name, the third prince's shy face looked a little tangled: "You can all call me by my name in normal times. It doesn't matter. Names are for people. I used to be in Banshan Hall Back then, my classmates were different from what they are now, and it was okay if everyone refused to shout. Nowadays, regardless of one’s origins, only knowledge is spoken in Jiuzhang Hall, and I am the youngest..."
When he said this, he suddenly said, "I just hope everyone will treat me like an ordinary classmate!"
Although these words contained his ardent hope, not to mention the other young people who looked at each other, even Ji Jiu could only smile bitterly, and then explained helplessly: "I think that if the third prince wants everyone to call each other directly, Your name... why not start with the teacher? As long as the teacher is willing to call you that, of course everyone can follow suit, right?"
Although Ji Jiu is a concubine, he has always been very good at dealing with others. When he said this, the young people who gathered around him immediately agreed. When they saw the obviously frustrated expression on the face of the third prince, they were stunned for several times. I couldn't help but think of those familiar children - from my own brothers to the children next door... For a time, the sense of distance seemed to be reduced a lot.
At this moment, they are occupying the classroom of their predecessor, the second-year supervisor of Jiuzhang Hall. This is completely helpless. After all, although Jiuzhang Hall has been repaired after its reopening, it is still smaller than the other six halls of the Imperial Academy. It is slightly smaller, but it is more than enough to accommodate a few dozen people. However, it is absolutely impossible to separate Jiuzhang Hall from two or even three.
Fortunately, the second-year supervisors are now very popular and have already started internships in various aspects, so they will not compete with the first-year juniors for classes. However, unless Zhang Shou knows that this is just a temporary measure, it is impossible. For a long time, most other people did not expect it to be so profound. At this time, a large group of people gathered together lively, talking to each other, and it was extremely noisy.
When Zhang Shou brought Lu Sanlang in, he saw that everyone immediately became quiet and hurriedly took their seats. He said: "If anyone is dissatisfied with the seats in the row, then go to your senior brother Lu Sanlang. This was arranged by him, not only Only based on age, height and eyesight, this is what he thought of when he asked you to register your information one by one after admission."
Lu Sanlang enjoyed the awe eyes that everyone suddenly focused on him.
Seeing that no one questioned the seating arrangement, he puffed up his chest, put on the posture of a senior, and said amiably: "Juniors, you all got admitted after reading "New Edition of Gurdjieff's Arithmetic". You are better than the previous seniors.
We have a better foundation. I hope you can study hard in the future and don’t let down the teacher’s high expectations. I hope that the new generation will be better than the old ones and better than us senior brothers.”
"Also, everyone is of different ages, and we should love each other more. We must know that the old and the old are like the old, and the young and the young are like the young. Don't look at the young age of the third prince. How well he performed in the previous entrance examination has been witnessed by all of you.
Don’t think that his actual academic level may not be higher than yours. You know, he started learning from Master Ge’s new system from the beginning, and his foundation is very solid.”
If he hadn't seen this little fat man in countless different ways, Zhang Shou would have thought that this big-tailed wolf pretending to be a little sheep was really good at it.
While many people were looking at Lu Sanlang with curious eyes and peeking at himself. Although they were not very familiar with him, they thought they were more familiar with him than others. The third prince suddenly stood up and looked very serious.
Raise your hands and bow.
"Senior Brother Lu just praised me so much, and I really don't deserve it. If I don't understand something in the future, I will definitely ask Senior Brother Lu and everyone else for advice. However, I also have something to ask for today. Since I am in Jiuzhang Hall
, whether it’s teacher or Senior Brother Lu, can you call me by my name in the future?”
"I have a name. My name is Zheng Rong, not the Third Prince!"
Zhang Shou saw that Lu Sanlang was stunned by the sudden move of the third prince. The others were buzzing with whispers, but if they were to say they were surprised, they were far less surprised than Lu Sanlang. He suddenly realized
, I'm afraid the third prince also mentioned this topic just now. Seeing Lu Sanlang looking at him with some hesitation, he nodded lightly.
With his approval, how bold is Lu Sanlang? He immediately put all worries behind his mind, coughed hard, and said with a high voice: "I understand, Zheng Rong, you can sit down.
"
The third prince's face suddenly lit up. He glanced at Lu Sanlang in surprise and joy, as if to confirm that the address he just heard was not an hallucination. Immediately afterwards, he responded loudly and sat down happily.
.
At this time, Lu Sanlang received a lot of awed looks, including from Ji Jiu. Even if the third prince himself requested it, most people would really not dare to call the third prince by his name like this!
Next, the little fat man, who had a bulging chest and belly, immediately began to talk endlessly about the achievements of the last batch of Jiuzhangtang's supervisors, what achievements they had, and how their studies are progressing now... These are all under his control
Things that were clear and clear were naturally explained clearly and logically, so those awe-stricken eyes gradually revealed their admiration and admiration.
Fortunately, he finally remembered that the protagonist today was Zhang Shou, so he didn't keep talking and quickly gave up his seat to Zhang Shou after seeing that he was almost there.
After Zhang Shou stepped onto the podium, he clapped his hands gently: "The reason why I called Lu Sanlang here today is not to show you the example of the prodigal son who turned around and became a genius in the emperor's words, but to tell you that just like
Just like those senior brothers of yourselves in the past, some of your classes will be taught by your senior brother Lu in the future."
"Because I am the only one in Jiuzhang Hall now. It is divided into two grades. In the future, there may be three grades, four grades or even more. Even if I know the clone technique, I will not be able to do it."
"So, those of you who are outstanding and ahead of schedule may also become substitute lecturers in the future, because your senior brothers will enter third grade, fourth grade, and higher grades, and you will do the same."
"As I said before, you can apply to skip a grade, or even apply to graduate early after completing all courses. And in the process of various internships, you may find what you like to do the most, and encounter
A boss who appreciates you and is willing to work for you may even meet a girl you like."
Seeing everyone burst into laughter, he said with a smile: "The world is so big and there are so many temptations. Just like the supervisors of the Imperial College can leave, you can also pursue your own future, but there is a big prerequisite for all this.
"
"That is, you must take every quarterly exam and every annual exam seriously, and complete at least one grade of courses. Otherwise, if you repeat a grade because you can't keep up, and eventually have to quit Jiuzhangtang, then, you
You need to pay due compensation for all the benefits you currently enjoy. Such compensation includes but is not limited to compensation for doing various things according to the requirements of the court."
"Because everything you get now is hard-earned. It is all squeezed out from resources that should be allocated elsewhere!"
Having said this, he paused for a moment. Seeing that everyone finally showed a relatively cautious or nervous expression, he smiled and said: "In short, your future is in your own hands. Of course, whoever thinks that Zheng Rong
I am a classmate with you, so I want to build a relationship and take a shortcut, so you can ask Zheng Rong yourself and listen to what he has to say."
The third prince did not expect that Zhang Shou suddenly mentioned himself. After he was stunned for a moment, he realized that Zhang Shou also called his name, and he immediately burst into laughter. He stood up suddenly, glanced around, and then bowed to each other.
: "It is Zheng Rong who comes to Jiuzhangtang to study, not the third prince. We can encourage each other academically, and we can help each other in life, but other things..."
He smiled shyly, but his voice was undeniable: "My fourth brother and I have never cared about state affairs."
For the third prince's clear statement, Zhang Shou felt that it exceeded his expectations. Therefore, he nodded happily, and then said calmly: "Okay, today's first lesson, I won't talk about the serious content, I will just give it to
Your task is to select the chief of the prison. Of course, Zheng Rong is too young and has an unusual status, so he will not stand for election."
"Those of you who are interested in becoming the captain can stand up on your own, speak on the stage, tell your strengths and weaknesses, and encourage other students to vote for you. After all, you are different from your senior brothers. Lu Sanlang's
The progress is much higher than that of your peers, so you are enough to serve as a captain, and with Sasuke Qi Liang, none of you has progressed so much as the others."
After saying this, he waved to Lu Sanlang, and the teacher and student left the room full of students, and Shi Shiran walked out. As soon as he walked out of the door, he heard the noise inside like a frying pan.
.
Lu Sanlang didn't need to think about it to know how much impact this would have on the supervisors inside. He laughed and said: "Officials are appointed by the court, and the township chiefs are all doing things secretly. Even the junior students and the like are not allowed to do so."
It’s often impossible to get away from the shady story, but now that such an opportunity to choose a captain is presented to these guys, of course they will be surprised. They don’t know who will be chosen in the end..."
"You really don't know?" Zhang Shou asked with a chuckle. Seeing Lu Sanlang's immediate sarcasm, he said casually, "If it is the third prince who chooses, then it must be him, but since I have excluded the third prince,
Then in the end, only one person will definitely get the advantage, and that is Ji Jiu. Let’s go, let’s go to Xinglong Teahouse.”
