Being surrounded by a group of students who cheated their teachers, he arrived at the Imperial College and argued with others under the huge archway with the word "university". Zhang Shou finally decided that since he was here, he would go to the Imperial College at night to reminisce about the past and look forward to the future.
future.
Since everyone, including him, hurried into the city and were hungry, before entering the Imperial Academy, Zhang Shou led a large group of people to an alley next door, and then asked Ah Liu to buy a hundred steamed buns to share.
, the right should satisfy hunger.
Seeing the large crowd of so many people, the shopkeeper was initially frightened and had a bitter look on his face. When Zhang Shou came forward and saw the elegant young man saying a word, a large group of guys who clearly looked like dandies quickly ordered their followers to apologize.
After being handed a large amount of copper coins, he was overjoyed and thanked Zhang Shou profusely.
On the side, Lu Sanlang couldn't help but muttered. Obviously Zhang Shou didn't pay a single copper, and they all gave the money themselves!
Of course, the teacher just buys a steamed bun, but the students have to ask the teacher to pay for it. That is too shameless...
As for a bland steamed bun and a bowl of bland hot water, Zhang Shou has nothing to do with the problem of how a group of dandy boys who are used to eating delicacies can eat it. Even if he always eats fine food, he is hungry.
He has never been picky about time. Besides, he did this not for the sake of hardship and simplicity, but simply because he was afraid that he or others might suffer from hypoglycemia.
Anyway, even if I miss this dinner, I will always have time to make up for it later.
However, when he returned to the gate of the Imperial College again and planned to persuade Zhu Ying to take the Wu family back first, he was blocked by Zhu Ying plausibly as soon as the words came out of his mouth.
"It's rare for Aunt Wu to come. I'll go in with her and have a look. No one will find fault! Emperor Taizu's ancestral teachings state that it is strictly forbidden to bring women into the university, but family members can come in and visit at any time. Otherwise, the supervisors will study for fame and be left behind.
The family members eat chaffy vegetables in their hometown, betraying human relations! At the beginning, Emperor Taizu even built a family building for the supervisors, but it was a pity that Emperor Taizong later demolished it due to the excessive cost."
Lu Sanlang on the side couldn't help but secretly curse. Jiansheng's family members can enter the Imperial Academy. Zhang Shou is a doctor of the Imperial Academy. Of course his mother Wu can be considered a family member, but what about you, the eldest lady? Fiancée and wife are different...
But in an instant, Zhu Ying made him speechless with one sentence: "My second brother is also a prison student. Just like Lu San, Fatty Zhang Chen and others, he has been famous all these years, but few people come here to order mao."
!I will escort him back later. Ah Shou, please help my grandmother and my father to discipline him! If he can turn around, our whole family will thank you!"
Zhang Wu and others couldn't help but look at each other in confusion. They handed over their son to the prospective son-in-law for training... Maybe the madam could really do it!
So, Zhu Ying took Taizu's ancestral injunction as a golden arrow, and grandly brought the Wu family, who was almost dreaming, into the Imperial College.
And a large group of dandy boys who had just coaxed Zhang Shou to be sent to the Imperial Academy had to bite the bullet and follow this young gentleman into the place they had always hated. As for the entourage of more than a hundred people, they were abandoned.
It's outside.
They are not prison students, and they are not family members. It is okay for one or two people to sneak in quietly, but how can so many people get in?
However, no one noticed that Ah Liu, whose presence was very low most of the time, was not here. Instead, he quietly pulled Qi Liang and went in another direction.
Jixian Gate, Glazed Archway, Yilun Hall, Jingyi Pavilion... I saw the most important buildings in the Imperial College one by one, and then walked around along the four halls and six halls. Zhang Shou almost felt that this was the same as the Imperial College in his memory.
The floor plan matched. So much so that he couldn't help but think to himself, regardless of whether Emperor Taizu was a liberal arts or science major, he was the same as himself in terms of map control.
While walking in the Imperial College, a large number of supervisors from noble backgrounds, from Lu Sanlang down, all turned into mutes who did not know anything. On the contrary, Zhu Ying explained the origins and allusions of each building along the way, and she was able to speak fluently.
.
Zhang Shou counted it secretly and found that Zhu Ying mentioned the ancestral precepts of Emperor Taizu at least twenty times. Anyway, such as distributing money and food, giving annual leave, raising family members, giving internships...all kinds of good governance are the ancestral precepts of Emperor Taizu.
, as for the bad things that happened later, they were all due to the incompetence of the subsequent emperors or the work of treacherous ministers.
When he came to an obviously dilapidated building, he finally couldn't help but ask: "Yingying, why do you look more like you have studied in the Imperial College than Lu Sanlang, Zhang Chen and others?"
Seeing that all the dandies in the back were silent, Zhu Ying said nonchalantly: "I grew up in front of my grandmother since I was a child. Whether it's my father or my grandmother, when the two of us are together, they often like to talk about the things that Emperor Taizu once did."
It was an allusion, so of course I remembered the place of the Imperial College. Later, my second brother went to the prison to study, and spent three days fishing and two days drying nets. He even came up with a weird idea."
"Because I kept asking him how the Imperial College was, he coaxed me by saying that the Imperial College was fun, and he also made me a bunch of messy promises, asking me to disguise myself as a man and come here to study in his place. Although I only studied there for half a month in total.
, things were exposed, I was taken back by my father, and he was severely beaten, but I walked around in the Imperial College."
Having said this, Zhu Ying glanced sideways at a large number of her peers who were like quails, and snorted angrily.
"I went there every day at least for the past half month. They said they were supervising students. One day they had stomachaches, tomorrow they were infected with wind and cold, and the day after tomorrow their elders were sick... If those teachers hadn't turned a blind eye, I wouldn't have
I think the boards in the Shengzhen Hall are about to be broken! Ah Shou, do you know that the Sixth Hall of the Imperial College has a separate hall for them, and of course, my second brother and I did the same at the beginning."
Zhu Ying pointed at them one by one with her finger: "As long as you fail in the Imperial Academy's quarterly exams three times in a row, you will not be able to enter any of the six Imperial Academy's six halls: Willfulness, Cultivation, Sincerity, Justice, Chongzhi, and Guangye.
In addition to the six halls, there is a special hall set up by Emperor Taizu. That hall is called..."
After a long pronunciation, she finally said in a low voice: "It's called Banshan Hall. The name was also given by Emperor Taizu. It means that students have different talents and academic performance, but they must study at the age when they should study! This
The word "half mountain" means that you are halfway up the mountain and you still need to work hard. Later, other supervisors of the Imperial College laughed at you as a half-full bucket of water."
"Of course, my academic qualifications are not very good. Grandpa Ge laughed at me because my arithmetic talent is zero, and I am only half as good as them."
Whether Lu Sanlang or Zhang Chen, they used to pursue Zhu Ying, half because of her prominent family background, and half because of her true temperament that never pretended to be pretentious. Therefore, after hearing Zhu Ying's sharp words,
, the two looked at each other, and Lu Sanlang laughed dryly and said: "Sir, those academic assistants and other academic officers in the Imperial College are really boring in class. This Banshan Hall..."
Zhang Shou has been trained to the point where the eldest lady is not surprised by whatever she does or says. Therefore, he waved his hand to indicate to Lu Sanlang that he did not need to explain: "There are roads in the mountains of books, and diligence is the path, and there is no limit to the ocean of learning. In fact, everyone is halfway up the mountain."
, so you don’t need to belittle yourselves as half a bucket of water. Except for sages, everyone is only half a bucket of water.”
He did not continue the topic, but pouted at the building in front of him: "Yingying, do you know that it is in disrepair and there is not even a plaque. Where is the lobby where General Tie is guarding the door?"
This time, Zhu Ying laughed and said, "Ah Shou, this is Jiuzhang Hall, where the arithmetic lecture hall was. In the past, when Grandpa Ge was the Imperial College student, he taught several students with good arithmetic talents here.
But after he left the Imperial College, those students were promoted to officials one by one, and now I heard that because no Imperial College students were willing to study arithmetic, Jiuzhang Hall has been vacant for many years."
"As for the plaque, it was still there when I came to study. I don't know why it's gone now. However, those guys will definitely say plausibly that Emperor Taizu's imperial pen must be properly preserved. I guess they are afraid of being a little confused.
Touqing Supervisor came here and saw Jiuzhangtang's name, and asked around, ruining their good idea of only respecting classics and history! They ruined Taizu's ancestral precepts!"
"Oh." Zhang Shou stared at the blank space where the plaque should have been for a long time, and finally looked away.
"I remember that the supervisor just said that all the supervisors and students have rested. Does this mean that there are dormitories for teachers and students in the Imperial College? In this case, I plan to stay here tonight."
Seeing Zhu Ying's eyes widening immediately, Wu's face was full of surprise, and most of the others were surprised. Only Lu Sanlang's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "It's so late at night, so many of you made a special trip to give me this gift."
If you only have a verbal quarrel with the Supervisor of the Shengqi Hall in one trip, that would be too low. If there is no empty dormitory, I might as well live in Jiuzhang Hall."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Sanlang immediately shouted loudly: "I also live here. If the teacher has something to do, I will help you!"
As long as he didn't go back and face the old man's hypocritical face, he would rather drink cold water on the floor of the Imperial College!
