Chapter five hundred and forty-ninth the first to report the good news
Zhou Jijiu and Luo Siye felt that the two former supervisors of Jiuzhangtang were absolutely unwilling to give up the title of supervisor. However, Zhang Shou, who knew the situation of the students, knew that most of the things that Zhou Jijiu and Luo Siye considered important
People don't care much at all. Because even if the current emperor is determined to rectify the academic style of the Imperial College, the Imperial College of today is no longer the Imperial College of the early years of Taizu.
Thinking back to the time when Emperor Taizu personally wrote the word "university" in his hand and hung it in front of the Imperial College, he really hoped that the Imperial College would cultivate talents according to the standards of later comprehensive universities.
More. As for now, haha, Jinshi often have to wait for candidates to be appointed to the official position, and the candidates are not even qualified to be officials. They are just supervisors...
Most of the prison students come out of the Imperial College. Those from rich families who don't care about fame and fame can continue to live in the world even if they have completed their mission of being mixed-born. As for those who come from ordinary or even poor families, they have to fight for survival.
As a result, some people went to work as aides to officials, and most of them just followed a county magistrate and became a master. Some people tried their best to teach students in the homes of wealthy landlords, and had to compete with more unemployed people; some people just
To be able to teach in a private school or a family school, you have to accept the scrutiny and assessment of those parents...
If it weren't for the old rule that official schools in various places had to send people to the Imperial College as tribute, and if it weren't for every Imperial College priest and priest would try their best to recruit a few outstanding students to serve as facades in the Imperial College - for example, he heard Zhu Ying say that back then,
Zhu Tingfang was imprisoned because his predecessor Jijiu personally went to the gate of the Zhu family to beg people to go there early. The Imperial College had long been completely in decline!
Therefore, after Zhang Shou said what he said to the students before, he did not continue the topic, but began to lecture and continue teaching. When the morning class was finally over, he still kept silent about Jiuzhangtang.
He was about to move to a public school, but the third prince suddenly stood up from his seat and rushed in front of him.
"Teacher!" After calling out, the third prince hesitated for a moment, but finally asked bluntly, "If Jiuzhangtang moves from the Imperial College to a public school in the outer city, can I also go there to study with you?"
Zhang Shou looked at the third prince, who had a childish but firm expression on his face, and said with a smile: "That depends on you. If you ask me, I think Zheng Rong, you can go there
Keep listening."
The third prince immediately nodded with joy.
The students in the hall looked at each other in disbelief, and in the end they all felt that if the third prince was willing to move to the outer city public school, then they could just go with them. Anyway, the atmosphere in the Imperial College has never been so friendly to them. But come on.
Then, everyone who was whispering heard a shout from outside: "Third Brother!"
The fourth prince, who had been to Jiuzhang Hall before, was naturally familiar with everyone from top to bottom. When he saw this little guy rushing in, he rushed over and hugged the third prince without saying a word.
The supervisors were all dumbfounded. Even though they knew that the two brothers were usually very good friends, it was the first time they behaved so obliviously in public. What happened?
The third prince also felt that it was abnormal for the fourth prince to behave like this. He hurriedly patted the fourth brother on the back and stammered: "Fourth brother, what... happened? What happened... what?
You can talk to me about anything, I can always... come up with a solution. Don't be anxious, don't be anxious!"
The fourth prince then let go of his hand. He took two steps back, not caring that he was in Jiuzhang Hall. Not only Zhang Shou was there, but also many other supervisors. At this time, his heart was full of surprises.
He took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "Third brother, you are going to be the prince! You are going to be the prince of the East Palace!"
At this moment, except for Zhang Shou, who had already heard the news from the emperor, everyone from the third prince himself to Ji Jiu and many students of Jiuzhang Hall were stunned. Especially the third prince himself looked as if he had seen a ghost.
After waiting for a long time to wake up, he first covered the fourth prince's mouth, and then used his other hand to touch and test his forehead.
You don’t have a fever? Why do you keep talking nonsense when you don’t have a fever?
The fourth prince was covered by the third prince and touched his forehead. He was immediately angry and anxious. He finally broke free, and then shouted angrily: "I don't have a fever, let alone go crazy. I heard with my own ears that my father said to me
That’s what those old ministers said!”
Although he was excited and excited at this time, so he went directly to Jiuzhang Hall to be the first person to report the good news, the fourth prince finally had some brains and did not say what the emperor said about the eldest prince and the second prince, nor did he
He also revealed the statements and attitudes of those ministers, and just said with all his heart: "My father said, third brother, you are of noble character, gentle and virtuous, worthy of the East Palace!"
He repeated the emperor's exact words about the third prince word for word. Seeing that the third prince was so shocked that he was stunned, and all the students in the hall were silent, he couldn't help but stretched out his hand and waved it in front of the third prince's face.
"Third brother, third brother, wake up. I'm telling you the truth. I definitely didn't tell lies to deceive you. There are so many people here!" After saying this, the fourth prince was still stunned when he saw the third prince.
He suddenly became anxious and blurted out, "If I say anything false, I will be struck by thunder... Ouch!"
Seeing the fourth prince suddenly scream and suddenly slap the little guy's ear, Zhang Shou let go of his hand. Seeing that the fourth prince reacted and immediately glared at him with annoyance, he just calmly said
Ran smiled and said: "Swearing and swearing are not used in places like this. Besides, Zheng Wei, don't you think you are too reckless?"
"Even if you heard it with your own ears, since it has not been announced, it means it is still not accurate. Do you want to put your third brother on the fire, or do you want to put everyone in Jiuzhangtang on the fire?"
The fourth prince had been trained by Zhang Shou before not to reveal forbidden Chinese language casually, but at this moment, he stubbornly held his head high and said: "I just want to let everyone know in advance, I just want to let this matter go to the people."
Everyone knows, it’s a foregone conclusion! The third brother is already very outstanding and capable, he is much better than my eldest brother and the second brother!”
He didn't even pause, and said confidently: "Besides, teacher, you are the third brother's teacher. They are classmates with the third brother. If they don't support the third brother, how can they support others?"
Who says naughty kids don’t have scheming skills? However, this simple and simple scheming can put those old foxes who are good at scheming to shame!
From the beginning to the end, the little guy in front of me never thought about what kind of guilt and punishment he, the person who leaked the news, might face if the matter was investigated!
Normally, Zhang Shou would definitely be able to teach the fourth prince a lot of principles, but at this moment, seeing Ah Liu's fleeting figure outside Jiuzhang Hall, he finally just shook his head at the fourth prince, and then said:
Ignoring the third prince, who was clearly upset, he returned to the podium and glanced at everyone calmly.
"What Zheng Wei just said here, God knows and the earth knows it, I know you know it. If the news really spreads to the outside world, then you can discuss it, but remember, Zheng Wei never said those words in public. And Ruruo
Looking back, there is no such news outside, so you should also remember that he never said these words in public!"
Seeing that the third prince was still in a daze, and now even the fourth prince was stunned, Ji Jiu quickly stood up and said: "What the teacher means is that regardless of whether the old ministers of the pavilion have released the news, please don't
Let's reveal what the fourth prince said in a hurry when he came to find the third prince, so as not to make others think that their brothers are getting carried away." At this moment, he no longer dared to call him by his name.
After being explained like this by Ji Jiu, a lot of dumbfounded students finally woke up and realized that Ji Jiu had subtly confirmed that what the Fourth Prince said was probably true! Thinking that they had actually been classmates with the future Prince of the East Palace.
, some were proud of it, some were ecstatic, and some were celebrating with their foreheads and hands... But before the huge Jiuzhangtang exploded, Zhang Shou drank.
"Okay, Zheng Yong's sudden appearance is already conspicuous. Do you want to lure everyone here?"
Seeing that everyone was silent again, he said in a deep voice: "Be careful of arrogance and impetuosity, be calm, don't lose the face of Jiuzhangtang, let alone the face of your future prince classmates. Okay, class will not be over at noon today.
I’ll ask Ah Liu to ask someone to bring lunch over so that you all can sober up!”
The fourth prince did not expect Zhang Shou to be so cautious. He was about to express his objection, but the third prince, who had been silent since the beginning, finally spoke.
"Thank you, teacher."
The fourth prince was immediately unconvinced, but when he saw the eyes of the third prince looking at him as calm as a pool of stagnant water, he suddenly panicked. He wanted to defend loudly, but his confident words turned into a little bit uncomfortable.
Natural growl.
"Third brother, I really am..."
"Stop talking." The third prince stepped forward and grabbed the fourth prince's wrist, then nodded to Zhang Shou and said, "Teacher, I'm going back to the palace. I'll ask Ji Zhaichang to borrow some for the afternoon exercise class."
Notes, please make up for them."
Seeing Zhang Shou smiling and nodding, with the same cordial attitude as before, the third prince, who was trying to remain calm, felt that his heart, which was pounding so hard that it was almost jumping out of his throat, gradually calmed down.
He lowered his head again as a farewell. When he left Jiuzhangtang, he saw Ah Liu staying outside. When he saw them coming out, he glanced over. There was a smile in his eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a slight soreness in his nose.
, and then I heard the fourth prince beside me shout: "Third brother, can you let go? Your hand is too strong...Sixth brother, help me!"
Ah Liu glanced with disdain at the fourth prince who was lying about the military situation. He jumped up to the roof as if no one was watching. Faced with this scene, the fourth prince was dumbfounded. He was involuntarily caught by his own family.
The third brother was dragged away.
When he went out this way, he didn't see the guards who were supposed to be chasing him out, but he saw a lot of prison students. In the past, when their brothers were in Banshan Hall, although they also went in and out of the Imperial College, there were the eldest prince and the second prince above, and most of them
They all turned a blind eye to them, but at this moment, people were retreating to the side of the road to salute one after another, so that the third prince could not even nod in return.
The fourth prince was even more dissatisfied with this kind of arrogant and respectful behavior. He raised his eyebrows angrily, but whispered to the third prince: "Third brother, why are you talking to these people? They didn't do anything before."
Take us into consideration..."
Before he could finish his complaint, he only felt a strong force coming from his wrist. This time it was really painful and he screamed repeatedly. Only then did the third prince relax his grip. He realized that today he was really
The third brother was angry, and he immediately burst into tears. When he finally left the Imperial Academy and saw Hua Qi holding two horses with a smile on his face, he woke up as if from a dream.
"Uncle Hua Qi, could it be that you have been following me just now?"
"That's right." Hua Qi raised her eyebrows with a smile and said lightly, "We can't let the fourth prince run out of the palace alone, right? I'm fine anyway, I'll just run an errand for the emperor and keep an eye on you, my dear.
Son?"
"Then what I just said..." The fourth prince felt his scalp numb and hoped to get a negative answer from Hua Qi. But he was soon disappointed because Hua Qi looked at him for a moment with a half-smile.
, actually gave him a thumbs up.
"You have to sacrifice yourself to fulfill your brother's needs. The fourth prince has become a man. I admire him."
Hua Qi saw that the fourth prince's face was earthy and the third prince was holding him behind him, as if he wanted to take all the responsibility on himself. He couldn't help but smile, turned around and led the two horses over, and then said lightly: "
You don’t have to worry, if the emperor really blocks it, the fourth prince will not be able to leave the palace to inform the third prince."
"As for that ridiculous idea, I won't even talk about it. The emperor has already pointed it out to so many people personally, and he is still afraid that you will spread it everywhere? Do you believe it or not, if we don't return to the palace as soon as possible, someone will stop us on the way.
Please see His Highness the Crown Prince!"
The third prince was startled by the scene described by Hua Qi, and did not dare to ask or say any more. He hurriedly mounted his horse and left. It was not until he trotted all the way that he finally saw Bei'an Gate in front of him. His heart was filled with excitement.
He had just landed a little, but then he suddenly realized that before he knew it, he no longer questioned the news brought by the fourth prince.
He wants to be the prince? How is this possible... This is simply ridiculous! How can it be possible for a timid boy like him, who dares not even speak loudly, let alone his ability, to take over the East Palace?
The third prince didn't know how he got all the way into the palace. When he finally stopped, he looked up in confusion and found that he was in front of the Qianqing Palace! He was so nervous that his whole body stiffened until he felt someone tugging on him.
He moved his head and looked over, only to see that the fourth prince's face was even more bitter than Huanglian.
"Third brother, my father just sent someone to wait for us at Xuanwu Gate. As soon as he saw us returning to the palace, he said he wanted to see us. Are you really angry with me? If I get beaten later, how can you
