Chapter 91: Taizu's inscription on a plaque and a hidden scroll?
Listening to the emperor himself telling the story of Emperor Taizu, Zhang Shou had never even thought about this kind of scene before.
Now he vaguely understood that Zhu Ying often talked about Emperor Taizu, maybe she learned it from her father Zhao Guogong Zhu Jing, maybe she learned it from Mrs. Taizu, but there is another possible way of learning, that
I learned it from the emperor himself!
Because while the emperor was strolling forward, he also kept saying "Emperor Taizu". It seemed that this was not the first time that the emperor came to the Imperial College. Whenever he came to a building, he didn't pay much attention to the academic officials or officials who were not polite.
Instead, the handyman would point and tell a story about Emperor Taizu.
"Emperor Taizu often said that it is a great etiquette to kneel down and worship. If a man has gold under his knees, he will be a kowtowing bug if nothing happens. In the Song Dynasty, he did not even have to kneel down when he went to court. Since we drove away the northern captives, so etiquette also
Ancient rituals should be restored, and people should not be allowed to kneel down easily. Therefore, at the beginning of taking the throne, only three major court rituals were performed every year, and the rest were kept simple."
It was the first time for Zhang Shou to hear these anecdotes, so he was very interested in them. However, the others did not know how many times they had heard the story of Emperor Taizu told by their own adults, and they did not dare to show their tired faces. It was really torture.
However, those who suffered more than them were undoubtedly Zhou Xun and other Imperial Academy supervisors who did not expect Chu Kuan to lie with his eyes open.
No one expected that the emperor would come so quickly!
When the emperor stood in front of each lecture hall and listened, not to mention the doctors and teaching assistants who were so nervous that they began to stutter. They came out of breath in the morning, and the supervisors who gathered together did not even dare to breathe out, they were almost suffocated.
Got it!
And if the emperor hadn't interrupted anyone to ask questions, Luo Siye felt that his heart was about to burst out of his throat!
But even so, seeing Zhang Shou and the group of dudes following the emperor like guards, and Zhu Ying dragging Zhu Er beside him chattering something, he still couldn't help but feel jealous, wishing he could accompany you at this moment.
The person on the side is yourself.
It is not impossible to go up to the fourth grade level and be placed in the sixth department as a minister, and to be placed in the cabinet... As long as Jane is in the heart of the emperor, some people will rise to the top in one step! Of course, it is not possible to be promoted to the cabinet without being promoted by the court.
, it’s true that people will laugh at you...
Therefore, Luo Siye could only lead a few minor officials from the Dianbook Hall to follow the emperor from a distance, but he was very curious about why Zhou Xun, the Imperial Academy's wine minister, could be so calm and calm, and really left everything to Zhang Shou
, he stood by and watched without even showing his face in front of the emperor. When he followed around and finally saw a building in the distance, he finally discovered Zhou Xun.
At the same time, he suddenly realized why the Lord Jijiu didn't come out... because he was accompanied by a few servants carrying buckets and rags, and there was a long object wrapped in red cloth on the ground beside him.
Confronted with a weak boy of sixteen or seventeen years old in front of the hall!
Zhou Xun wanted to take people to clean up the Jiuzhang Hall quickly and hang up a plaque inscribed by Emperor Taizu, but he was stopped!
Although there were more than a dozen people on Zhou Xun's side, he was easily stopped several times when he rushed up. Some of the handymen who came up with a pole had their "weapons" taken away from them and were beaten until they ran back with their heads covered.
Faced with this scene of being bullied by a crowd but being bullied by a few, Luo Siye wanted to laugh for some reason, but when he saw the emperor leading Zhang Shou and his party forward with great interest, he felt uneasy in his heart.
"Well done Ah Liu!"
Zhu Ying's sudden shouting successfully woke up Zhou Xun who was gnashing his teeth but could not break through the young man's fingers. He slowly turned around, and when he found that the emperor had arrived, his face suddenly turned white. He had planned before
He did a good job, taking advantage of Zhang Shou and others to greet him, and solved the Jiuzhangtang problem with lightning speed.
Even if you can't fix the rotten floor, you can still replace other things!
But when he arranged for the doctoral assistants to give lectures and the supervising students to attend the lectures, and hurried over, he found that the handyman who had been sent earlier was blocked by a young man. He himself went up to scold him and returned without success, let alone the cleaning work.
There was no way to carry out the event, and the special plaque couldn’t be hung, but the emperor came as fast as lightning!
Therefore, Zhou Xun could only watch helplessly as the emperor took the lead and got closer and closer, and in the end he came directly to Ah Liu. Seeing that the young man who had just stopped him silently took a step back silently, and then bowed deeply and saluted.
, he couldn't help but feel itchy with hatred.
This ignorant mute actually recognized the emperor!
However, what surprised Zhou Xun and Zhang Shou was that the emperor actually stopped and asked: "Are you Ah Liu?"
"Yes." Even in front of the emperor, Ah Shou still cherished his words like gold.
But Zhou Xun was furious. Since he was not mute, why did you remain silent no matter what I just said?
"Hua Qi said, on the night of August 14th, you fought hard against the rebel army and even knocked away an arrow from the assassin. Yes, a great master makes a great disciple."
Seeing that Ah Liu lowered his head and seemed to have no reaction to such praise, the emperor did not feel dissatisfied. He turned to look at Zhou Xun and the servants, and asked lightly: "I would like to know what happened.
thing?"
Zhang Shou stopped Lu Sanlang who was about to try, and at the same time stopped Zhu Ying with a look. Since his goal seems to have been achieved, there is no need to rush out and add insult to injury. If someone from the Imperial Academy makes false claims during the wine ceremony, he will come forward again.
Not too late.
"Your Majesty, this Jiuzhang Hall was the place where Emperor Taizu established the arithmetic department. However, because no supervisors were willing to learn arithmetic for many years, and no doctoral assistants were proficient in arithmetic, it has been vacant for many years."
Zhou Xun hesitated and told the truth: "The plaque inscribed by Taizu himself is a precious thing, so I ordered someone to take it off and store it in the Imperial College warehouse to prevent it from decaying due to wind, sun, rain and rain. As for Jiuzhangtang
The maintenance was poor, so that the cobwebs were densely covered, the floor was rotten, and the furniture was dusty. I did make an oversight. If Dr. Zhang hadn't led Lu Zhu to clean it last night, I wouldn't have noticed it."
After saying this, he knelt on the ground, as if sincerely begging for sin.
Faced with this scene, Zhang Shou couldn't help but wonder secretly, thinking that if he couldn't get over it, he would confess his crime immediately. This was really decisive.
Who would have thought that at this moment, next to the plaque wrapped in red cloth, a small official who had lowered his head and lowered his hands suddenly raised his head and shouted: "Your Majesty, Da Sicheng is avoiding the important and taking the easy. He knows that the Taizu plaque is hollow.
There were a hundred secret scrolls hidden in Taizu, so I took them off and hid them in the warehouse, racking my brains to get them out!"
As soon as these words came out, not to mention Luo Siye, who was sneaking up behind him, was dumbfounded, and a large group of dandy boys were also dumbfounded. However, the most surprised person was none other than Zhu Ying. She subconsciously pinched the second brother next to her hard.
, until she heard a scream, and she glared at him fiercely. Zhu Er felt as if his throat was being strangled, and he hurriedly shut up.
After glaring at her brother, Zhu Ying couldn't help but murmured in a low voice: "It's not a dream... But how could there be a secret scroll of Taizu in this plaque? It's not like those legendary storybooks in the bookstore!"
Zhou Xun, on the other hand, had cold sweat on his forehead. He opened his mouth but found that no sound came out. He suddenly panicked and subconsciously knocked his head heavily on the ground, and then finally screamed out through the pain.
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely not the case!"
The emperor ignored Zhou Xun's excuse. He looked straight at the plaque and suddenly strode forward. He lifted off the red cloth covering it and saw that it was Jiuzhangtang San who was dancing in a flying phoenix.
He suddenly tapped the center and edge of the plaque with his hand. After listening to the sound attentively, he started laughing.
"You guys think, should I chop this plaque into pieces and find out the secret scroll of Taizu?"
