Chapter 552: Is there a law of duality in the world?
In one day, the news that the East Palace was about to have an owner spread throughout the city. Moreover, this was not some gossip, but something the emperor said to a group of senior officials who were rarely in the third rank in public. Moreover, the emperor was not Hanhan.
He vaguely said that I was going to establish a crown prince, but explicitly claimed that I wanted to appoint the third prince as the crown prince.
The Second Prince's Courtyard was taken over by the Rui Qi Camp, and the Second Prince was said to be making a fuss with grief and anger, and the news spread like wildfire. However, compared to the First Prince, who at least had a pretty good reputation before going to Cangzhou, his personality
The second prince, who was irritable and notorious, had no one to sympathize with him for a long time. Therefore, even though many of his servants were dismissed on the spot by Ruiqi Camp, few people paid attention to his life or death.
In this situation where the whole nation was hotly discussing the new crown prince, Zhang Shou, who detained all the supervisors of Jiuzhangtang at noon and refused to let anyone go out, started his tactical bombing of the sea as usual in the afternoon, and found that there were so many people passing by outside.
A little bit.
The only ones who usually come over to listen when they have nothing to do are Xu Heijun, the supervisor of the Shengzhen Hall, and then Zhou Jijiu and Luo Siye who occasionally come to find fault. The other academic officers take a detour when they have nothing to do. But he is the only one who patrols around the hall.
, when checking everyone's progress, they found that some academic officers came over and looked at them three or four times. Even though they clearly saw that the third prince was not there, they still persevered.
At the end, when Zhou Jijiu and Luo Siye, who had broken up with him on bad terms in the morning, both came again, he knew that the news brought by the fourth prince should be solid. He walked slowly to Ji Jiu
He knocked lightly on the desk, and when he saw someone looked up at him, he immediately continued to sit down at the desk and "quickly write". He knew that the chief would be in charge of other people here.
He left Jiuzhang Hall with his hands behind his back. At a glance, he found that except for Zhou Jijiu and Luo Siye, all the doctors from the Doctoral Hall were here. Even the teaching assistants and the junior officials from the Dianbook Hall were there.
Everyone came to join in the fun.
The only one who was missing... was Xu Heizi from Shengxing Hall!
Knowing that Xu Heitun was a very eccentric person, and it would be normal not to come here at this time, Zhang Shou smiled slightly, then cupped his hands and said: "Da Sicheng, Shao Sicheng, and all my colleagues, are you here?"
Are you sitting in on my lectures? For the sake of Zheng Rong’s progress, and for everyone to review the past and learn the new, Jiuzhangtang is all about exercises in the afternoon, and no new content will be taught. And..."
And Zhang Shou was too lazy to talk about the rest. In addition to coming to his place regularly to check in and observe, Xu Heijun also asked for textbooks to study on his own. You science scum who look down on arithmetic, even if you stand today, can you
Can you understand?
Although Zhang Shou didn't say it explicitly, Luo Siye still thought of the embarrassing scene when Zhang Shou visited the Imperial Academy at night and was made dizzy by the proper nouns such as turtles and turtles, so he immediately coughed.
Said: "Dr. Zhang, there is news from outside that the emperor is about to ennoble the third prince as the prince of the East Palace. If this happens, it will be inappropriate for you to call him by his first name in the future..."
Seeing that Zhang Shou was disapproving, he did not want to continue the topic, so he changed the topic immediately: "Moreover, once the third prince enters the East Palace, the Imperial College is located in the North City and can be reached immediately from Bei'anmen. There is nothing more beautiful than this in the whole capital.
It’s a suitable place to study. However, the prince’s study has always been one-to-one, so it would be inappropriate to be in the same room with so many people..."
This time, before he could finish his words, Zhang Shou said calmly: "As long as Zheng Rong is a student of Jiuzhang Hall, he will take such a big class. As a teacher, I can only treat all students equally. .As for Shao Sicheng saying that it is not appropriate for so many people to live together in one place, then if Zheng Rong goes in and out of the Imperial College every day, wouldn't he have to send people to clear the way in advance every day?"
"Can the Imperial College still have classes at that time?"
Luo Siye was silenced by Zhang Shou. He was not willing to let the crown prince be surrounded by a group of guys who were not even serious scholars, but if the third prince who was already the crown prince came in and out of the Imperial Academy every day, While enjoying the glory from top to bottom, they also have to bear corresponding risks!
He couldn't help but glance at Zhou Jijiu, and his brows were knitted into a big knot when he saw the person. The other academic officers, who were full of enthusiasm just now, were all confused at this moment. He suddenly changed his mind and simply decided to Just nodded.
"Dr. Zhang, your concerns are very reasonable. The prince's safety is indeed crucial. In this case, I will write to Da Sicheng when I get back. His highness the prince's safety is of great importance to the country. Please study hard in the palace."
Having said this, he paused and looked at Zhang Shou with piercing eyes: "Since Dr. Zhang believes that all students should be treated equally, then he would not give up other students for one student, right?"
Luo Siye had already spoken so openly, how could Zhang Shou not understand what he meant?
Seeing Zhou Jijiu's face condensed but silent, while the other academic officials were suddenly enlightened or gloating about his misfortune, he smiled calmly: "Of course I said that everyone should be treated equally, and naturally I won't treat Zheng Zheng of Jiuzhang Hall because of Rong changed his mind when he was about to be promoted to crown prince."
Faced with Zhang Shou's frank answer, Luo Siye immediately turned around and shouted to all the academic officials, "When is this the time when you all have nothing to do? Everyone goes to their respective places, don't violate the rules of the Imperial College!"
After all, he, the young Sicheng, was quite prestigious. As soon as he said these words, the academic officers dispersed. But he himself did not leave. Only when Zhou Jijiu was left, he slowly walked up to Zhang Shou and spoke earnestly and thoughtfully. He said quietly: "Dr. Zhang, I'm not forcing you. You have to choose one side between Dr. Guozi and the prince's teacher, the students of Jiuzhang Hall and the prince. To be honest, I hope you choose the prince."
Luo Siye's words were like a sudden turn of events. Not to mention others, even Zhou Jijiu was a little surprised when he heard this.
Zhang Shou was also slightly stunned, and then asked with a smile: "Why did Shao Sicheng say this? There are so many talented people in the world. When the third prince was just an idle prince, I taught him sutra calculation. There is nothing wrong with that. Since he is the prince now, why does it have to be me?"
"Because you are a doctor of the Imperial College, and you represent the Imperial College."
At this time, Zhou Jijiu also tasted the wine. Before Luo Siye could answer, he answered solemnly. Seeing that Zhang Shou was silent for a moment, he said in a deep voice: "Reopen Jiuzhangtang" , it was approved by the emperor himself. Even if you are not in the Imperial College, Jiuzhangtang is still there. As for these students, you can leave them to Lu Sanlang to take care of them. He is very talented, you just need to teach him with your heart."
Seeing that Luo Siye and Zhou Jijiu were partners at this time and urged him to leave Jiuzhangtang and go to the palace to teach the third prince on behalf of Dr. Guozi, Zhang Shou felt that these senior officials who had been immersed in the officialdom for many years were really The Qiqiao Exquisite Heart has clever and ever-changing thoughts that make people overwhelmed.
Of course, he could roughly understand what the two meant, and he said categorically: "Thank you, Da Sicheng and Shao Sicheng, for reminding me, but since I have personally recruited these two groups of students, I will not abandon them."
"As a teacher, if you can't treat everyone equally, how can you teach others and solve doubts? Moreover, when my teacher, Mrs. Ge, took me in as a student, she once hoped that I could carry forward arithmetic, and even
He gave me the cousin name Jiuzhang. If he knew that I left Jiuzhangtang in order to become the teacher of the future prince, he would be so angry that he would kick me out of the door!"
Most of the students in Jiuzhang Hall who had their ears pricked up could clearly hear the conversation outside. When they first heard Luo Siye said that he wanted to teach the third prince separately, they couldn't help but worry a little.
After arriving at Luo Siye, they rejected everyone and persuaded Zhang Shou to leave Jiuzhangtang and become the prince's tutor. Their emotions were even more complicated.
I also hope that Zhang Shou will go to the palace to serve as the prince's tutor, so that he can give them greater support in the future; but I am also afraid that Zhang Shou will completely forget these insignificant students after flying to a high branch.
Therefore, when Zhang Shou said with a decisive attitude that he would not abandon Jiuzhangtang, everyone felt it was simply unbelievable.
Even Ji Jiu, who had been hinted by Zhang Shou to control the order in the hall, couldn't help but ask himself, but he felt that he would never abandon the glory that was within his reach and continue to stay in Jiuzhang Hall to lead a group of students with uncertain futures.
You know, Luo Siye came up with a good idea, which was to ask Lu Sanlang to take over the class - it's not like Lu Sanlang had never done it before. This fat senior he once looked down on was really talented.
Totally capable!
Luo Siye just said some upright words after deliberately expelling the academic officials. It was an unexpected surprise that Zhou Jijiu helped him. As for whether Zhang Shou agreed or not, it was completely indifferent to him.
Anyway, if he agrees, Zhang Shou will be sorry for the students of Jiuzhangtang; if he doesn't agree, the third prince will definitely have a grudge. But he is standing from the standpoint of the Imperial College and the imperial court. No one can find fault, and he can also redeem his previous overstatement in one fell swoop.
some bad effects.
Therefore, since Zhang Shou refused, he naturally said a few more words of persuasion, a few words of regret, and finally took Zhou Jijiu with him to leave.
After the two of them left, Zhang Shoushi returned to Jiuzhangtang. As soon as he entered, he saw all the heads turning around. Fortunately, it was daytime. If it was late at night, it would be very similar.
A horror movie.
Facing those pairs of eyes, he said with a smile: "Did you all hear what I just said? Don't be sentimental, I'm not just for you. The former third prince Zheng Rong became the prince, regardless of whether the Jiuzhang Hall is located in the Imperial College
Well, even if it is moved to a public school in an outer city, it will be very difficult for him to come to class again. Moreover, the rule has always been that the prince has a companion to study with, but the prince has no classmates."
Zhang Shou's last words immediately caused several students who wanted to speak to shut up. After a long while, Ji Jiu murmured to himself: "But the third prince... he said clearly before that he very much hopes to stay in Jiu Jiu."
Zhangtang’s.”
Seeing that these words aroused the resonance of many people, and all the students' faces showed extremely complicated expressions, Zhang Shou sighed inwardly, and then said nonchalantly: "In fact, what Luo Siye just proposed
All it takes is a slight change to the compromise. For example, I’ll give you lessons in the morning and then go to the palace to teach him for an hour in the afternoon. That’s it.”
"As for whether one hour is enough, that doesn't matter."
Zhang Shou smiled nonchalantly and said: "I just said that the prince will accompany you as a reading companion. So, in fact, the East Palace only needs to add a few good reading companions. For example, your senior brother Lu can be responsible for giving lectures to make up for the progress. Or something like that. For example, you are the best among them, because you and Zheng Rong have always made the same progress."
Having said this, he paused slightly and then said with a smile: "Of course, the latter kind of companion reading may not be one person or several people. You can take turns. But there is only one prerequisite: work hard enough and be good enough. You yourselves should know that although Zheng Rong is young, his talent, talent, hard work and diligence are all first-class! Don’t lose to him!"
How can it still be like this!
At this moment, the whole hall was shocked, and then the whole hall was ecstatic. Including Ji Jiu, who was a little dejected just now. If people these days were not full of restraint cells, someone would definitely burst out "Long live the teacher" at this moment. And even if not, there were cheers all around in an instant, and it was only after Ji Jiu stood up to maintain order that everyone became quiet.
"Okay, the break time is up, let's continue working on the questions. I will take advantage of this time to write a memorial and send it directly. It is best to catch up with the memorials of Da Sicheng and Shao Sicheng. If it is late, it will be difficult for me to talk. "
Although the questions that Zhang Shou had just assigned were many, very difficult, and very frustrating, when he saw the young teacher spreading paper on the podium, grinding ink, and then calmly dipping in ink and starting to write, the supervisor below Unknowingly, my mood calmed down. For a while, the only sound left in the huge Jiuzhang Hall was the quiet sound of writing, as if even breathing had stopped.
When Xu Heizi from the Shengzhen Hall quietly came to the door of Jiuzhang Hall, what he saw was the scene of teachers and students concentrating on each other. He couldn't help but stop for a long time, and then sighed in his heart. This is called a gentleman's style, and people are like this. Leave quietly.
Less than an hour after the dispute in the Imperial College, Chu Kuan, who was in charge of rituals, had already learned the news that Luo Siye, Zhou Jijiu and a large number of academic officials were looking for Zhang Shou. Hearing that Zhang Shou was in front of others After expressing his stance, he couldn't help but raise his evaluation of Zhang Shou again, but when he thought about the emperor's arbitrary and reckless behavior, he really felt helpless.
Immediately afterwards, he suddenly thought of something and asked immediately: "Before, Lu Chan went to wait for the emperor and the fourth prince to return to the palace, but the emperor has been back for so long, and the fourth prince even went to the Imperial College to talk to the third prince again. Yi Yi is back, why hasn't he seen anyone yet?"
The little eunuch on the side was also shocked by the many changes in this day. At this time, he was stunned when he heard this, and then suddenly slapped his forehead and said: "Yes, how come Eunuch Lu hasn't come back yet! "
Maybe something happened that delayed him? But then someone should be sent to report to him!
The more Chu Kuan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. At this moment, he heard Lu Chan's voice coming from outside, but there was something obviously wrong with that voice, and what he said made him even more surprised: "Chu Kuan Father-in-law, the emperor is here."
