my brother-in-law is the prince

Chapter 221 The Great Secret

At this time, everyone looked at everything in front of them with dumbfounded eyes.

Suspected in a dream.

The one who took the lead in bowing down to the students was also terrified.

The other students in the back seemed to have suddenly realized it, and they also bowed down one after another: "Thank you, teacher, for your teaching."

Zhu Di seemed drunk, and felt that everything that happened before his eyes was unreal.

In this world, there should be no one who plucks the wool on Zhu Di's head.

But under the watchful eyes of everyone, they saw these teenagers, each one of them looked like Mu Tianen.

As for Duke Qi Qiu Fu, he glanced at Zhang Anshi with an expression that was acceptable.

Then, he saw among the students, the majestic son Qiu Song with his stomach puffed out and walking in a figure of eight.

Subconsciously, Qiu Fu moved his feet a few steps away from Zhang Anshi.

Yi Shiha was a little flustered. As an accompanying eunuch, when the emperor went out of the palace on important occasions, as long as it was not a private visit in a low-clothes, he would go to the place to meet with His Majesty.

In other words, all the itineraries have been arranged. Although it is impossible to cover everything, at least, most of the situation can be controlled.

Moreover, there will be eunuchs who will follow Yi Shiha's orders and give some instructions.

For example, where should the students stand, how far should they keep from the holy car, and how to salute after arriving.

But now... there was such a mess.

He looked at Zhang Anshi with a wry smile, and he couldn't help but harbor resentment in his eyes.

Zhang Anshi is harmful.

If this matter breaks out, if His Majesty is furious, Zhang Anshi may still think that this guy is young and ignorant, or that he doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth.

But Yi Shiha is different, it is his responsibility to ensure that there are no major mistakes in etiquette, and he is the guy who eats, isn't this smashing his job?
As for the civil servants, they all looked at each other in blank dismay.

In fact, the disciples of the son of heaven are not without opinions. For example, after the examination, all the tribute students will participate in the palace examination presided over by the emperor, and finally the emperor will determine the ranking of Jinshi, because scholars have a tradition that the examiners are often their own teachers.

It is also because of this that no matter whether it is the provincial examination or the general examination, if you can be the chief examiner, the candidates of this subject will greet you as a disciple and call you a master when they see you.

Therefore, people often refer to Jinshi who have passed the palace examination as disciples of the emperor.

But now... this guy named Zhang... is actually doing something like this.

These low-level students came to recognize the teacher, what does this mean?
Moreover, this kind of behavior is very low-key and shameless, as if when you are walking on the street, someone suddenly hugs your thigh and calls you daddy.

Xie Jin shuddered even more, feeling that his hairs were standing on end, that people could be so shameless.

It's okay to be shameless, but he also dragged more than 200 teenagers to do such despicable and shameless things together.

It's over. In the future, this place will definitely be a den of thieves. These people will become Jin Yiwei in the future. Will there be one in the world?

Yang Rong and Hu Guang were also stunned. They stood in a relatively remote place, and Hu Guang whispered: "Is there any precedent for this in all dynasties?"

Yang Rong pondered for a while: "I've never heard of it."

Hu Guang continued in a low voice: "It's time to study history."

When Yang Rong heard the word "History", he was quite tempted. He coughed and stood up a little straighter. He wrote history to record something. modeling.

At this time, Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty, they... really don't understand the rules..."

Zhang Anshi's voice was very soft, and he looked like he hated iron but steel: "I must teach them a good lesson later."

Zhu Di glared at him.

Zhang Anshi shut up obediently and stopped talking.

Zhu Di said in a low voice: "Nonsense, it's just nonsense."

Zhang Anshi said: "Yes, yes, nonsense...they..."

Zhu Di still stared at him, and said, "I'm talking about you."

Zhang Anshi said aggrievedly: "What I originally wanted to say was that His Majesty personally gave a demonstration today. This is the performance of being a good teacher, so I invite them to come to thank you, but..."

"Don't make excuses." Zhu Di was a little anxious, trying to lower his voice and said: "You think I don't know you?"

Zhang Anshi had no choice but to hang his head and said: "I know I'm wrong, I'm going to reprimand them and tell them...don't be rude to the emperor."

Zhu Di continued to scold in a low voice: "Go and teach me a lesson."

Zhu Di sounded like he had seen through you a long time ago.

Zhang Anshi: "..."

The two whispered to each other, and the people around them all heard it, and pretended not to hear it.

Sometimes pretending to be deaf and dumb also requires technical content. You have to pretend that you are deaf and have a natural expression, so some people look away, as if admiring the layout of the school grounds.

Some looked up at the sky, as if they were quite satisfied with today's weather.

There are also people who look down at their toes, as if they stepped on dog shit today.

Zhu Di blew his beard and gave Zhang Anshi another look: "Okay, let's go aside."

Zhang Anshi resentfully said: "I am guilty of ten thousand deaths, indeed ten thousand deaths."

After saying this, he immediately slipped away as if he had received an amnesty, and hid in the crowd at once, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

Everyone has apologized, what else do you want?
Zhu Di coughed, cleared his throat, and then said: "Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

His words were forced.

But at last there is no meaning of blame.

As a result, the students were very excited, and all of them smiled happily, and said one after another: "Observe the order."

Zhu Di pretended to be very interested, and then under Zhang Anshi's leadership, he looked at the school building and schools everywhere, and heard Zhang Anshi talk about the subjects taught in this official school and the good teachers he hired.

Zhu Di always had a smile on his face, as if the embarrassment just now didn't exist, and he even praised: "Well, Zhang Qing's family has worked hard."

Zhang Anshi immediately replied: "Your Majesty, I don't have to work hard. Your Majesty manages everything every day. This is the only way to devote yourself..."

Zhu Di waved his hands, but said nothing.

Waited until noon.

Zhang Anshi invited Zhu Di to rest in Minglun Hall, and personally delivered cakes, and the accompanying minister could only rest temporarily in the side hall.

At this time, only Zhu Di and Yi Shiha were in the Minglun Hall, so when he saw Zhang Anshi, Zhu Di said angrily, "You are so bold."

Zhang Anshi said: "I will die."

The words were so familiar, Zhu Di still had an angry expression on his face: "Everyone says to drive ducks to the shelves, aren't you treating me like a duck?"

Zhang Anshi hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare. In fact... In fact, I also have a last resort."

At this time, there must be no cheating.

Zhang Anshi became sincere.

Zhu Di said patiently, "Well, tell me."

Zhang Anshidao: "After these people graduate in the future, they will become pro-military, and they will become Jinyiwei. What does Jinyiwei do? It is to monitor the officials, act as the eyes and ears of the emperor, patrol and arrest, and in addition, enter the Zhigong Palace. It is an exaggeration to say that it is so powerful."

Zhang Anshi paused, and then said: "At the beginning, Ji Gang used this to dare to be so arrogant and domineering. How many privates did he cultivate, and how many heinous crimes did he commit?"

"People say that the heaven and the earth are kings, relatives and teachers. This teacher is like a person's father. Those who are children must respect their parents, and those who are disciples must respect their teachers. This has been a rule since ancient times."

After a pause, he continued: "When this school is established, it is reasonable to say that I can be the principal of this school, but I am thinking, this is not possible, can I be the mentor of this generation of Jinyiwei pillars? Ji Gang’s precedent is right in front of you, you can’t do this!”

"So I only took the position of chief instructor, responsible for the daily affairs of the school, formulating the learning curriculum, and supervising the teaching of various subjects. If I don't take the post of principal, who will do it in the world?"

When Zhu Di heard this, his face softened a little.

Zhang Anshi said again: "I have thought about it, but it is His Majesty who must do it. If His Majesty does not come to do it, this school will not be able to run."

Zhang Anshi looked very serious: "Of course, it was just an idea, but I didn't expect His Majesty Long Yan to be furious. Well, if His Majesty insists on punishment, I am willing to be punished."

Zhang Anshi stood at attention with an attitude of being punished humbly.

After Zhu Di heard these words, most of the anger in his heart had already dissipated. Looking at his obedient appearance, he couldn't help laughing, and waved his hands and said, "I am not angry with Long Yan. I also know that you must have your reasons , who are you, I don’t know? It’s just...why didn’t you tell me about this earlier? It must be at this time to teach me to ride a tiger.”

Zhang Anshi said: "Oh, so that's the case. It seems that I am really confused."

Zhu Di said like an elder teaching the younger generation: "Such things are not appropriate after all, and they should be taught as jokes."

Zhang Anshi said: "Why don't I tell the students that I was joking just now and tell them not to take it to heart?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Di's good temper was immediately annoyed by Zhang Anshi's words, and he said, "You..."

Zhu Di's lips trembled, and he continued to curse angrily: "You still think I'm not ugly enough?"

Seeing Zhu Di's eyes that were about to burst into flames, Zhang Anshi hurriedly said, "Let's not talk about it, let's not talk about it."

"That's it!" Zhu Di glared at him angrily, tried to calm down his anger, and said, "I have no choice but to resign myself to it, after all, I paid for it."

Zhang Anshi happily said: "Your Majesty is wise."

Zhu Di glared at him with a sense of warning and said, "These students must be well controlled, and they must not embarrass me. If not, they are not scolding the school, but scolding me!"

Zhang Anshi immediately said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, this chief minister is like a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire..."

Zhu Di waved his hand: "What does teaching and educating people have to do with mountains of swords and seas of fire?"

Zhang Anshi said aggrievedly: "Isn't this just an expression of my attitude."

Zhu Di sighed: "I'm free, I come here every year to teach riding and archery."

Zhang Anshi was pleasantly surprised: "Your Majesty loves the students so much, and the students must remember it in their hearts when they bathe in the grace of God."

Zhu Di's mood went from bad to good quickly.

Then he became complacent: "Damn it, you guys dare to do this next time?"

Zhang Anshi immediately said: "Don't dare, don't dare."

Zhu Di snorted coldly and said, "I definitely dare."

After that, he stood up and walked out slowly.

The civil servants and military generals heard the movement from Zhu Di's side and thought that His Majesty was still in a rage.

Waiting to see Zhang Anshi's joke!

Who knew that Zhu Di had returned to normal, and even in the astonishment of everyone, he said to Qiu Fu: "The Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, send a batch of good horses here. The students have to learn riding skills. Without good horses, you can't do it. Can't do anything."

Qiu Fu: "..."

Seeing Qiu Fu's dumbfounded look, Zhu Di frowned and said, "Deaf?"

Qiu Fucai hurriedly said: "Oh, oh... I obey the order."

Zhu Di said again: "This government school looks a bit like a school. It's very good. I'm thirsty for talents. I really hope that these people will become talented."

The ministers had complicated thoughts, and the ghost knew what kind of ecstasy Zhang Anshi had taken again.

Wait for Zhu Di to drive back to the palace.

Zhang Anshi's cautious look immediately disappeared, and he became complacent.

He crossed his hands and said triumphantly: "Hurry up, hang up the signboard, the school will be renamed."

On the other side, a few instructors had already brought out a huge signboard from the warehouse and hung it at the door of the school.

On the door, there is a huge gilded signboard, which can blind people's eyes from a distance.

But I saw the words above: Royal Official Academy.

This is a student of the emperor, so it is reasonable to hang a royal official school.

Anyway, His Majesty acquiesced.

This official school has a high starting point for being serious.

For Zhang Anshi, dragging the emperor into the water was a last resort.

The rhetoric against Zhu Di is not unreasonable.

But Zhang Anshi himself has his own ideas. The purpose of the school is to find another way and take a different path from the imperial examination.

The Four Books and Five Classics, apart from consolidating the privileges of the gentry and landlords, have no vitality.

If we want to embark on a new path, we must cultivate a group of real talents, so that these people can shine.

Today's world is on the eve of drastic changes. Just like Prometheus stole the fire from Zeus, human beings are about to steal the authority over nature and the whole world that only the gods have.

At this time, if you still hold the Four Books and Five Classics to understand the so-called sage's principles, it means that hundreds of years later, compared with the rapid changes overseas, the entire Central Plains will still be stagnant.

This official school is Zhang Anshi's sharp sword to break this situation.

It's just that the secular obstacles and the fixed thinking for thousands of years are so stubborn.

Could it be that Zhang Anshi broke it when he said it was broken?

Fortunately, the people in this land are not immersed in illusion after all.

They're realistic and they're curly.

That being the case, Zhang Anshi felt that he had to take out a carrot.

Becoming a Jin Yiwei is a carrot, and the emperor's disciple is also a carrot.

Able to be an official, have status, high salary, majestic, everyone admires...

All the beautiful words are enough to make the students in this government school the pride of heaven in the eyes of the world.

And this kind of proud son of heaven does not rely on blood, does not rely on the amount of wealth, there is only one thing, that is to learn alchemy, arithmetic, medicine, astronomy and geography, and the basic knowledge of the human body.

Are these... hard?

Hard!

What is difficult?There will always be countless smart people who surpass their contemporaries and become the best.

But now, with Zhu Di's amulet, the emperor himself came to be the great master, and his attractiveness has greatly increased.

In the future, it will be the era when government schools compete with imperial examinations for talents.

Everyone came to the door one after another to see, and all of them clicked their tongues.

Zhang Anshi said again: "Tomorrow I will go look for my brother-in-law, find a portrait of His Majesty, and hang it in Minglun Hall. From now on, before the morning class every day, you all go to bow to the great master. As disciples, you must polite."

All the students were very excited.

They actually feel lucky to be able to pass the exam here, but after coming here to study, they still feel that they may get a good job in the future.

But looking at it now, it doesn't stop there, even the emperor is his mentor, how can the future be so bad?

Ever since, everyone in the official school was excited.

The news spread quickly, and many people talked about it.

Many people think that it is really inappropriate for His Majesty to do so.

Of course, if you are not happy, you are not happy, but it is inevitable that you will be disappointed. If I knew this, I would also take the exam in the official school.

Careless, careless.

I don't know when to take the exam next year.

At this time, it was the time when Zhang Anshi was most satisfied.

He personally formulated the curriculum for the students of the official school.

In addition, teachers are called together to write teaching materials.

The teachers are also very energetic at this time.

Among them, half of the teachers are famous scholars.

They knew that they were hopeless in the imperial examinations, and after losing their names several times, they slowly lay down.

I thought that in this life, I had no hope.

Precisely because he lay flat and rotten, he felt a bit of resentment towards the Four Books and Five Classics.

Perhaps it is because of this mentality that they often appear in the miscellaneous library of the library and read some idle books every day.

Some people didn't have any interest after reading it, so they left naturally.

But some people come here every now and then when they are interested.

After going back and forth, I actually relished it.

The miscellaneous books written by Zhang Anshi are good because many things can be verified.

After someone tried to verify it, they found that there was nothing wrong, so they became more interested.

And these people... are now hired into this school.

In fact, their purpose is very simple. There is nothing wrong with being a teacher. There is a fixed salary, and they can also teach others some skills to satisfy their own desire to be a good teacher.

But who would have thought that this school... is far more than that simple as they thought at first.

The Royal Official Academy, the students in it are all disciples of the emperor.

So what are their teachings?
They even had a premonition that there might be many great figures among these students, and the knowledge they imparted might be carried forward by these students.

This kind of psychological satisfaction suddenly made the instructors become more energetic.

The future is expected.

Therefore, for the teaching of various subjects, Zhang Anshi was asked for advice almost every day.

Some asked questions about lesson preparation, and some asked about some knowledge of their own subjects. They learned it only after reading Zhang Anshi's book, which is self-study, but there are still some places that they still don't understand. Now the original author of this book With it at hand, it is natural to hope that many questions will be answered.

In addition to answering them, Zhang Anshi also encouraged them to think deeply and study on their own.

At the same time, next to the official school, a small school for children began to appear.

After the appearance of this elementary school, soon, one after another, they sprung up like mushrooms after rain.

Any idiot knows that this elementary school has no worries about the lack of students, and many people are asking around how they can get admitted to the official school, so many people are tempted to open a school, and at the same time try their best to inquire about the admission standards, and even There are courses in government schools.

After learning that many subjects in this official school are based on the books in the library.

The library was suddenly overcrowded. Many people brought pens, ink, paper and inkstones, directly copied various miscellaneous books, and then took them back to read.

Such enthusiasm, in the eyes of scholars, is of course deviant.

Many great Confucian scholars and famous scholars are half-dead in popularity.

Can't stand everyone's enthusiasm, who would joke about his own future?
You academic masters with fame and reputation can rely on the four books and five classics, and you can become officials if you write good articles. Don't you allow others to make a living by themselves?
……

At the end of the month, the end of the year is approaching.

Zhang Anshi's wedding date has been set, anyway, it's only a few days away.

At the East Palace, people come to Qixia to watch every day, for fear that Zhang Anshi will do something again.

And at this moment, Chen Li excitedly came to see him.

"Master Hou."

Zhang Anshi looked exhausted, and worked hard to pull himself together: "In the past few days, I have run out of oil and lamps for teaching and educating people. Hey...why are there so many questions about those teachings?" ?”

"What's the matter, what's the matter? Wei Li, does anyone want to make trouble again?"

Chen Li took a deep look at Zhang Anshi and said, "No, it's about the scribe."

When Zhang Anshi heard about the scribe, he immediately thought of Ji Gang, and suddenly his whole body seemed to gain strength.

Zhang Anshi has always believed that Ji Gang seems...not as simple as it appears on the surface, and always feels that there seems to be something unknown behind it.

It's just that Zhang Anshi couldn't find a clue as to what it was.

Hearing the news from Chen Li now, he was naturally invigorated, and he immediately asked, "What happened to the scribe?"

Chen Li said: "Over there in Monan, our people in the Tatar tribe have inquired about some news from the Wuliangha tribe. It is said that the scribe was taken by the leader of the Wuliangha tribe to a secret meeting with the Tatar tribe. Grand Master, it seems... there is some kind of conspiracy."

Zhang Anshi became even more nervous, and said, "What plot?"

"I don't know exactly what the plot is. I only know...something might happen in the border town." Chen Li said: "Could it be...this Ji Gang...has an accomplice in the border town, take this opportunity, The inside should cooperate with the outside?"

After hearing this, Zhang Anshi frowned.

"Ji Gang..." Zhang Anshi murmured, "Three Caves of the Cunning Rabbit, what exactly did Ji Gang arrange?"

Chen Li thought for a while and said: "Ji Gang is in the pass, I'm afraid there are still some remnants of the party. Ji Gang always takes one step and sees three steps... This is our careful letter. Oh, there is another one here. Fu's letter, Lord Hou, you will know it after reading it."

Zhang Anshi quickly took the secret letter, opened it, and after reading it carefully, his brows furrowed even deeper, and he said, "Immediately bring Ji Gang to trial, you go with me, and everyone else must avoid it."

Chen Li hurriedly said: "Why, Hou Ye, what did you notice?"

Zhang Anshi muttered to himself: "There seems to be a big secret hidden here."

At that moment, Zhang Anshi led Chen Li, and immediately asked Ji Gang to be brought here, and they hurried to the interrogation place.

It didn't take long for the two of them to sit down, when a school captain escorted Ji Gang over, and immediately avoided him.

At this moment, Zhang Anshi stared at Ji Gang with a cold face and said, "Captain Ji, I've been gone for a few days."

Ji Gang bowed and knelt in front of Zhu Di, seeing Zhang Anshi, but he showed great hatred: "I heard that you have become an acquaintance. Congratulations, congratulations, but I thought that His Majesty would order you to be a commander and add you the title of governor." Woolen cloth."

His words were slightly sarcastic.

It seems to be saying, even if you have made such contributions, aren't you still just a colleague?
Zhang Anshi was not angry, but smiled and said: "The ways are different, we don't conspire with each other, between you and me, our ambitions are completely different, don't use your same tricks on me, it will only make you look ridiculous."

Ji Gang said angrily: "Zhang Anshi, you have caused me to such an extent that you just want to steal my position. Why do you need to cover it up? It's a pity that I don't have a good brother-in-law after all. If not, why did this happen!"

Chen Li couldn't help cursing at the side: "Don't be rude, be careful with your skin."

Zhang Anshi pressed his hand, signaling Chen Li not to get excited.

Instead, Zhang Anshi said calmly, "That scribe went to the Wuliangha tribe. I'm afraid he even colluded with the Tatars. Why did you send him out before?"

"You want to know this secret?" Ji Gang looked at Zhang Anshi fixedly, showing a sinister smile.

Zhang Anshi still calmly said: "Let me listen to what you say."

Ji Gang said: "I'm afraid you won't dare to listen."

Chen Li was a little flustered. To be honest, he really didn't dare to listen to Ji Gang's many secrets.

Zhang Anshi calmly said: "My favorite thing to hear is secrets."

Ji Gang said: "Do you know why the Wuliangha tribe was able to grow? This is all thanks to your majesty. Your majesty is too jealous of King Ning. You must think why I let the Wuliangha tribe occupy the original Ning The memorabilia of the large number of pastures stationed by Wang Wei? In fact, I knew His Majesty's mind and followed suit."

Zhang Anshi said: "What you said is obviously not a secret."

Ji Gang said: "But you obviously don't know. In fact, the Tatar Ministry is also happy to see the results. The withdrawal of Ning Wangwei to the pass is the result of the joint actions of all parties."

Zhang Anshidao: "Huh? You mean, the Tatar Ministry also participated in this matter, how did they participate?"

"It's very simple, through me." Ji Gang said indifferently: "I was the mediator, and between Wuliangha, the Tatar Ministry and Ji Gang, we reached a secret agreement."

Zhang Anshi smiled: "So that clerk was there to reach a secret agreement, and this is also a back road you left for yourself at the beginning."

Ji Gang sighed; "The cunning rabbit is dead, the lackey is cooking, the day I became the commander of the Jinyiwei, I actually thought of this day long ago."

"What secret agreement?"

…………

Another [-] words have been delivered, students, the last day of the double monthly pass, ask for a monthly pass.
