my brother-in-law is the prince

Chapter 94
At this time, Gu Cheng said with emotion: "I am really ashamed. I am away from home on weekdays, and I am far away in Guizhou. But what about my grandson, hey..."

Having said this, Gu Cheng sighed: "He is still a child, how can I take him to Guizhou, I have to leave him alone in Nanjing City, and I will live in Guizhou. I have no regrets, but the one I am most worried about is this grandson. , in Nanjing City, without close relatives around, who can discipline him?"

Zhu Di and his ministers nodded one after another. What Gu Cheng said was indeed the most affectionate and reasonable words.

Anyone who imagines that he has only the last offspring left, and all the relatives around him have passed away, and he still has to leave this immature little guy thousands of miles away. It didn't take long to let it go.

At this time, Gu Cheng made a big salute to Zhu Di, and said: "I want to thank Your Majesty, Your Majesty's kindness is so great, and I... I am so heartbroken that it is difficult to repay the event."

Zhu Di was shocked, and said in amazement: "What are the Gu Qing family talking about?"

After saying that, he stood up and hurriedly helped Gu Cheng up: "What Gu Qing said seems to mean something?"

Gu Cheng wiped away his old tears, took out a few more letters from his bosom, and said: "Your Majesty, these are the letters that my grandson has written to me this year. Your Majesty can understand it at a glance."

Zhu Di was full of doubts in his heart, took the letter, opened it, and the unsightly dog-crawling characters fell into Zhu Di's eyes. As for the grammatical problems, it can be justified, mainly because there are many typos, which are very eye-catching.

"This..." Zhu Di looked suspicious, and then circulated the letter to all the ministers, asking in surprise, "This is also written by your grandson?"

"nature."

Zhu Di pointed to a letter in his hand: "This letter only took two months, and two months can make a world of difference."

The ministers talked a lot and were all surprised.

Gu Chengdao: "When I saw his homework for the first time, I also found it incredible. People say that you should look at him with admiration after three days. Isn't that true?"

"That's why I thank Your Majesty. If Your Majesty hadn't invited a good teacher for my grandson, how could my grandson have made such great progress?"

Zhu Di was even more surprised at this time, and said, "Who is this good teacher you are talking about?"

Gu Cheng said directly: "Zhang Anshi!"

As soon as this name came out, everyone was surprised.

That's right, isn't Gu Xingzu studying in the Zhengyi Hall of Guozixue?

Dr. Zhang Anshiren only worked for more than a month, and the timing is completely consistent.

This guy is said to be hated by people in Guozixue, but who would have thought...

Zhu Di was startled: "Really?"

"I have already asked my grandson, and my grandson... I also said that it was Zhang Anshi who taught him to study." Gu Cheng said without hesitation, and then shed tears again, choked up and said: "That's how you are." Now that I have a grandson, I will point to him to shine on the lintel of the family and carry on the family line! He was in Nanjing City, and I was worried and at ease every day. Now he is fine. He has succeeded in his studies, which means that he has met a good teacher. With the guidance of a good teacher, the minister's heart will be settled."

"This doctor, Zhang Anshi, was sent by His Majesty. It can be said that his eyes are as bright as a torch. How can I not be grateful?"

Zhu Di never expected that Zhang Anshi really had such a talent.

He had 1 questions in his mind, but Gu Cheng said it very clearly, so he couldn't help laughing happily: "Haha... I always think that since the founding of Guozixue, the academic affairs have been neglected, and I have the intention to clean it up. It was only then that Zhang Anshi was ordered to be a doctor, and this son did not live up to my expectations, um...he can do things well."

The Duke of Wei, Xu Huizu, was also shocked at this time, and couldn't help muttering in his heart, could it be that Zhang Anshi is really both civil and military, and his medical skills are so good, such a young man...has such a talent...it is really rare.

At this time, he glanced at Qiu Fu, Duke of Qi, and couldn't help thinking: No wonder Qiu Fu slandered An Shi, and begged His Majesty to let him recruit Zhang An Shi as his wife and son-in-law.

If it is said that in the past, Xu Huizu was just a compromising mentality towards Zhang Anshi, then the matter of the King of Han is about to end, and he can only replace Guo Degan with Guo Degan.

But now Xu Huizu found that it seems that it is not bad to have such a son-in-law. A daughter of the Xu family should marry a hero.

Cheng Guogong Zhu Neng was a little anxious at this moment: "My son is a teaching assistant..."

Xie Jin's civil servants looked very surprised. They couldn't understand it, they just thought it was too strange.

It is absurd that the doctors of the Imperial Academy are either world-renowned Confucian scholars or Jinshi. Zhang Anshi and others were appointed as doctors and teaching assistants. It is actually absurd, but now...there is such an effect. This...is really unbelievable.

Zhu Di compared the letters and homework again, and couldn't help but look smug: "Xie Jin..."

Xie Jin hurriedly said, "The minister is here."

Zhu Di stared at him without saying a word.

Xie Jin lowered his head, feeling uneasy.

Zhu Di immediately raised his head and said, "What you said just now, why is it contrary to what Gu Qing's family said? Should I believe what Xie Qing said, or should I believe Gu Qing?"

Having said this, Xie Jin was sweating profusely, and he said eagerly: "Maybe... maybe it's because I mistrusted people's words, so...so..."

Zhu Di was furious: "What a misbelief in people's words, this ordinary people can misbelieve in people's words, because even if they misbelieve, in the end it is only him who harms him. But Qing is a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, who holds an important position and assumes a great responsibility in the court. Can a person like you mistakenly believe in people's words? If you believe in people's words by mistake, how many important court affairs will be ruined, and how many people will be wronged?"

Xie Jin bowed down in a hurry, feeling ashamed at this moment, he said: "I must reflect on my crime of death, and I must be cautious in my words and deeds in the future."

Zhu Di snorted: "I am in charge of the military aircraft. If there is a slight omission, it will be lost forever! Zhang Qing's family is so talented, full of economics, and rich in education, but you have prejudice against him, you... You have to learn from Hu Qing's family, Hu Qing Jiahui's eyes know the pearls, and he can tell at a glance that Zhang Anshi is a high-ranking scholar, so he said to everyone: "He is the number one scholar, and he doesn't have much knowledge to teach Zhang Anshi. Listen, this is the real Bole. I see you." Not as far as Hu Yan."

Xie Jin almost vomited blood, thinking only in his mind: Hu Yan, the old thief, must have a conspiracy to cater to the king.

But at this time, he had to kowtow like a pounding garlic: "The crime of ten thousand deaths, I... feel ashamed and feel ashamed. From now on... from now on, I must ask Mr. Hu for advice more often."

This remark really made Xie Jin ashamed and indignant, but all scholars are conceited, and Xie Jin is especially obvious in this respect. For a conceited person, being slightly insulted is really more uncomfortable than killing him.

Zhu Di snorted again, but he was in a good mood at the moment.

With his hands behind his back, Zhu Di paced a few steps, and said: "Of course, not only Hu Qing's family, but also I... have already noticed Zhang Anshi's talent, as the so-called eclectic talents, today this Anshi did not teach me to be ashamed , Gu Qing’s family, if your grandson studies hard, he will surely become a talent in the future, and I will be of great use in the future.”

Gu Cheng seemed to have taken a reassurance: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Zhu Di smiled and said: "Stay here later, I have a big treasure to show you, it may also be helpful for you to guard Guizhou."

Gu Cheng was in a bright mood at this time, hearing what His Majesty said, naturally aroused his curiosity, and hurriedly said: "Dare not to follow orders."

…………

Zhang Anshi hid in Duke Wei's mansion for two days, but it's a pity that there are too many people in the mansion, so it's better to be at ease in the palace.

Great time, all hang out with Xu Qin.

Zhang Anshi disliked Xu Qin, but he still patted his head from time to time to express his love and approval for him.

Two days later, three of Zhu Yong came excitedly, and when they saw Zhang Anshi, they grinned and said, "Brother, the limelight is over."

"It's over?" Zhang Anshi was a little worried.

He felt that it might be a trick of suspicious soldiers. Generals like Zhenyuanhou must be very cunning and had to be guarded against.

"Yes, my father said that in front of His Majesty, Marquis Zhenyuan highly praised Eldest Brother." Zhu Yong smiled and said, "I also said that I would like to thank Eldest Brother, Eldest Brother is really amazing."

Zhang Anshi was stunned for a moment, and he seemed to be dreaming when he heard these words.

But then I thought about it carefully, yes, the parents of the ancients are different from the parents of the later generations. The parents of the later generations feel that the sky is falling when the child suffers a little bit of grievance.

However, the concept of the ancients is very simple, perhaps because of the scarcity of educational resources, they respect teachers who teach and solve doubts. What people believe in is that strict teachers produce excellent students.

Speaking of which, after all, he still used the thinking of later generations to understand the world, careless.

Zhang Anshi breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said: "It's nothing, you wait here, I'm going to say goodbye."

So I hurried to see Xu Jingyi.

Xu Jingyi sat firmly in the flower hall, asked someone to serve tea to Zhang Anshi, and said with a faint smile, "Today...do you still need a follow-up visit?"

Zhang Anshi shook his head like a rattle, and said: "No need, no need, I'm here to say goodbye, Miss Xu has recovered from her illness."

After hearing this, Xu Jingyi couldn't help losing her mind: "Outside... outside... are you okay?"

Zhang Anshi smiled and said: "It's very good outside, in fact, I misunderstood the Marquis of Zhenyuan. It was all a misunderstanding before. Now he knows me, Zhang Anshi, and he is already admiring me. I wish I hadn't known me earlier."

Xu Jingyi said: "I'm really happy for you?"

Zhang Anshi coughed and said, "Then...Miss Xu, I'm leaving."

Xu Jingyi said: "It's inconvenient for me to see you off, so let my younger brother see you off."

"Yeah." After speaking, Zhang Anshi stood up.

Xu Qin outside kept urging: "Brother Zhang, let's go, hurry up, don't let Second Brother Zhu wait outside for a long time."

Zhang Anshi had no choice but to follow Xu Qin out, not forgetting to give Xu Qin a contemptuous look.

Meeting with Zhu Yong, Zhang Anshi became proud again, but Xu Qin said, "Where are you brothers going, take me with you. I can climb trees, play with slingshots, and..."

But Zhu Yong kicked his ass: "Little kid, you deserve to play with us, get out!"

Xu Qin clutched his butt, and ran away in embarrassment under Zhu Yong's stare.

Zhang Anshi said: "Second brother, don't be so hot-tempered. Now we are also role models for others. Okay, let's go to Guozi to learn."

Now that he returned to Guozixue, Zhang Anshi felt that his chest was straighter.

Under the strange eyes of the teachers and students of the Imperial College, the four returned to the Hall of Justice.

Gu Xingzu was actually there too.

Although the four teachers didn't know where they went, he still came to school obediently regardless of the weather.

When Zhang Anshi saw him, he praised him with a smile all over his face, "You're so cute."

Gu Xingzu saluted the four of them.

Zhang Anshi sat down and continued to pick up his age.

Zhu Yong and Zhang Fu stood in front of Gu Xingzu with arms folded as usual, looking at him with puffy eyes.

Qiu Song sniffed, and took out a bunch of gunpowder packets from the burden.

Gu Xingzu hurriedly stood up, this time he didn't need Qiu Song to tie him up, but he put the bunch of gunpowder bags on his back, and then sat upright.

When it was almost time, Zhang Anshi put down the Spring and Autumn in his hand, stood up, and said with a smile, "How is your homework?"

"The homework is done." Gu Xingzu took out his homework from his book bag, and said: "The doctor and teaching assistants were away two days ago, and the students did some other homework. In addition, they also memorized the "Shangshu" Two."

Zhang Anshi looked down at his homework. In fact, Zhang Anshi himself didn't know much. His knowledge of the ancients probably came from the Analects of Confucius and the "Spring and Autumn" he was reading recently.

The words of Hu Zheye are very awkward, Zhang Anshi guesses the meaning of the whole sentence only by individual words.

However, this does not detract from his glorious image as a doctor.

After Zhang Anshi probably read it, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, very good, a child can be taught, which makes the teacher very pleased."

Gu Xingzu said obediently: "The student also practiced the copybook, please have a look at the doctor."

As he spoke, he took out another copybook and sent it to Zhang Anshi.

When Zhang Anshi saw it, his face blushed immediately, it was terrible, this word was even better than his writing, as expected, a famous teacher gave rise to a talented student.

Zhang Anshi said with emotion: "I am very gratified to be a teacher. I am very gratified. You can take the initiative to learn, which shows that you have already got three or four points of my true teaching. The so-called mountain of books has roads and hard work. It is good, good. "

Gu Xingzu said: "Also...the student went to the bookstore the day before yesterday and bought a stereotyped lecture...student..."

Zhang Anshi took the book and read it!Well, this book recognizes Zhang Anshi, but Zhang Anshi doesn't recognize it.

So Zhang Anshi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Taizu Gao Emperor is really a fucking pervert, using this as an imperial examination question, is this a human thing?
Checking Gu Xingzu's homework, his progress is indeed very fast, and it can even be said that the speed is not an exaggeration.

It has to be said that the Gu family's genes are still very good.

And this Gu Xingzu is very intelligent, especially good in memory.

Zhang Anshi has always suspected that the intelligence of many ancient people was actually not high. This is obvious among ordinary people. Even though most people can have enough to eat, they can only take in some protein during the New Year's Eve.

As a result, [-]% of people have insufficient brain nutrition.

In this regard, Gu Xingzu did not have this trouble at all, not to mention that his grandfather was a Marquis, and he also guarded Guizhou. As the only military general in Ming Dynasty, Gu Cheng and the Yunnan Mu family were almost important pillars for Ming Dynasty to stabilize the southwest.

The Gu family is just such a single seedling, and they really want to stuff all the delicacies in the world into Gu Xingzu's stomach. Compared with most poor people in this world, Gu Xingzu's problem is probably only overnutrition.

This also led to Gu Xingzu's obvious intellectual advantage.

The only thing missing is the beating.

Zhang Anshi kept nodding: "Not bad, not bad, very good, you must study hard, let's talk about the Shangshu today, and first recite the Shangshu upside down."

Gu Xingzu hardly hesitated: "Got it."

Zhang Anshi patted his head with a loving look on his face.

Of course, compliments are essential, but beatings are not uncommon.

Zhu Yong has a bad temper, so he can't wait to take Gu Xingzu out to play mixed doubles with Zhang Fu.

And the reason is just that he memorized a word wrong.

…………

At this moment, Zhu Di was in a good mood.

This can be seen from the flying look on his face!
He repeatedly said to the people around him: "The most important thing for a king is to employ people. Once he has the knowledge of people, he can use these people in appropriate positions. In this way, the society can be stabilized and the country can be established." If it prospers, the common people can live and work in peace and contentment.”

After a pause, Zhu Ditu saw: "Let's just talk about that Zhang Anshi. Everyone said that he shouldn't be a doctor, but I can see at a glance that he has such talents. What happened? You guys, just look at things." Superficial, unable to penetrate the essence..."

Saying that, Zhu Di shook his head.

Standing below, listening respectfully to Zhu Di was Xie Jin. Xie Jin felt as if he had eaten a fly, his heart flustered, but on his face he could only admire: "I am so ashamed."

Zhu Di smiled with satisfaction, and said, "It's good if you know your mistakes."

Xie Jin then said: "Your Majesty, the imperial examination is just around the corner. Many scholars have already entered Beijing, and many inns are already overcrowded. There are also many dormitories prepared at the Guozijian for prospective students to stay. This is the first time since His Majesty ascended the throne. , especially Su and Song suffered a catastrophe, but many scholars still flocked to the capital, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it can be said that for this Enke, it can be said that it is painstaking. It is only the chief examiner who is elected at this year's age."

This topic successfully diverted Zhu Di's attention. He put away the obvious complacency just now, and looked more serious. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Does Xie Qing's family have any high opinion? Otherwise, let the Imperial College sacrifice wine to Hu Yan." .”

Xie Jin smiled. The chief examiner of the imperial examination is a position that countless scholars dream of. In this era, the chief examiner is called a teacher. Once someone goes to high school, these candidates who have passed the imperial examination will have to salute as disciples when they see the original chief examiner. What an honor.

Xie Jin said: "Mr. Hu is indeed the right candidate for his studies through the past and the present, but..."

Zhu Di said, "But what?"

Xie Jin said: "Mr. Hu has the style of Wei and Jin."

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Di seemed to understand clearly.

The so-called style of the Wei and Jin Dynasties is not a good term. The representatives of the style of the Wei and Jin Dynasties are the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove headed by Ji Kang.

At least during the time of Emperor Taizu Gao, he lashed out at such scholars, thinking that these people were trying to gain fame.

Zhu Di agreed, nodding his head and saying, "He is indeed a bit lazy."

At this time, Xie Jin bowed down and said: "I am not talented, and I am willing to use my talent for Your Majesty."

Zhu Di pondered: "This matter is of great importance, why not..."

Zhu Di paused, and then said: "I will take you as the main examiner, and the rest Hu Guang, Hu Yan, and Jin Youzi will be the deputy examiners, and that Yang Shiqi..."

Zhu Di suddenly thought of Yang Shiqi.

Xie Jindao: "Yang Shiqi is still in a humble position now, and I think it is inappropriate to mention him as a deputy examiner at this time."

Zhu Di was silent for a moment. He didn't like Xie Jin's scholarly stink in many times.

But I have to say that Xie Jin... is considered as a rare scholar who treats him with respect and obeys his words.

Zhu Di didn't say any more, just said: "Order Wenyuan Pavilion to draw up a decree."

Xie Jin was overjoyed, this time he won the chief examiner, even though he was already in a high position at this time, he was overjoyed!

This is a truly glorious event, not to mention... Once this subject is announced, he, the chief examiner, will be the teacher of the Jinshi on this list, and in the future, there will be peaches and plums all over the world, no problem.

Xie Jin suppressed the excitement in his heart, and tried to calmly say: "I obey the order."

The matter of the imperial examination was decided, and when Xie Jin led the order to leave, Zhu Di was still a little worried.

In the early Ming Dynasty, the imperial examination had just been established, and there were many problems. Emperor Taizu Gao was overwhelmed by these matters, and Emperor Jianwen lay flat directly, but it does not mean that there were many troubles.

The so-called scholars should not regard them as pure readers.

Behind every scholar, there is a clan or even an aristocratic family supporting them. These people are distributed in every state and county in the world. To a certain extent, these clans and aristocratic clans are precisely the important foundation for the Ming Dynasty to maintain local rule.

Once something goes wrong and disappoints the whole country, he, Zhu Di, has been scolded as the emperor who murdered his nephew, I'm afraid that this old face will not be let go.

Zhu Di lowered his head, paced a few steps, thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Yi Shiha."

Yi Shiha stepped forward: "The servant is here."

Zhu Di said: "Tell the prince, this imperial examination is of great importance, and nothing should go wrong."

Yi Shiha nodded, and hurriedly obeyed his orders.

…………

On the other side, at noon, Zhang Anshi stretched himself. He enjoys his current life very much, teaching and educating people every day, and doing something useful to the world, how meaningful it is!
But at this moment, there was a sudden noisy sound outside, which turned out to be from the Willful School next door.

Speaking of this willful school, it is the "top class" in the six schools of Guozixue, which belongs to the most outstanding group among the children of Xunchen.

Hearing the noise, Zhang Anshi asked Qiu Song to investigate.

Subconsciously, Qiu Song wanted to carry his burden on his back.

Zhang Anshi kicked his ass: "Even the three murderers in the capital have to use their brains. Don't give this thing to Cheng Ri. It's going to explode, so let's go to the west together."

Qiu Song stuck out his belly and confronted Zhang Anshi stubbornly.

But... In the end, Zhang Anshi's identity as the eldest brother still subdued the little fourth brother. He could only reluctantly put down the burden carefully, and then ran out in a hurry.

After a while, Qiu Song came back and said, "There's a commotion."

Zhang Anshi raised his feet: "Of course I know that there is a commotion, what are they arguing about?"

"The imperial examination has been decreed."

"Say it in one breath."

"The main examiner and the assistant examiner... everyone doesn't like it."

Zhang Anshi couldn't help asking curiously: "Why?"

Qiu Song blinked dazedly and fell into a daze.

Zhang Anshi's teeth were about to gnaw, so he could only resign himself to his fate and said to Zhu Yong and Zhang Fu, "Go and find out."

Zhu Yong and Zhang Fu benefited a lot from doing business, and they ran back quickly. Zhu Yong said vividly, "Brother, it's like this. Many people say that the imperial examination is unfair."

Zhang Anshi said with a speechless face: "Damn it, it's not that the course hasn't started yet, why is it unfair?"

"The problem lies in the four examiners. Of these four examiners, the leader is Xie Jin, who is from Jishui County, Jiangxi Province. The second is the deputy chief examiner, and this Hu Guang is also from Jishui County, Jiangxi Province. In addition, there is our Guozijian Jijiu Hu Yan is also the deputy examiner. He is from Nanchang Prefecture, Jiangxi Province. There is also Jin Youzi, who is from Xingan, Jiangxi Province. Everyone says that this examiner has been recruited by Jiangxi people, especially the scholars who are originally from the north. It’s very good, even if you don’t take this subject, it’s definitely a Jiangxi person who wants to go to high school again.”

Zhang Anshi asked in surprise: "Don't you know, Your Majesty? Why do you want these people to be examiners?"

Zhu Yong smiled wryly and said: "I also went to ask. Some people said it was unfair, and some said it couldn't be more fair. Those who said it couldn't be more fair were mostly scholars from the south, especially those who were born in Jiangxi. The examiner is naturally a person with both ability and political integrity. Not to mention other things, just talk about Enke who was in the second year of Jianwen, Hu Guang who won the first prize in the exam, Wang Gen who was second in the list, and Tanhua Li Guan. They are all from Ji'an Prefecture in Jiangxi! No. 1 Wu Bo and No. 3 Zhu Ta are also from Jiangxi. Jiangxi talents are good at learning. "

Zhu Yong said again: "They also said that the examiners selected by His Majesty are the pillars of the Chinese court in the current imperial court. If you don't choose them, who else can you choose?"

After hearing this, Zhang Anshi probably still had a speechless expression on his face.

Jiangxi people are too curly.

In fact, the Guozijian was not too noisy, it was just some people booing.

After all, there are quite a few supervisors who participated in the imperial examination, but I think that I am really not compared with the local candidates, and the focus is more on participation.

So after Hu Yan got the order, he immediately calmed down the situation with Xuezheng and others. While being overwhelmed, he couldn't help but said with worry: "I'm afraid the juren from all over the country will make the trouble worse. They have prepared a full three times for the imperial examination." In [-], gearing up, it’s okay to pass the exam, but if you don’t pass the exam, I don’t know what to do.”

As he spoke, he thought of something again, and said to the accompanying scribes: "It's hard for His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness presides over the imperial examinations, and I'm afraid that he will be criticized by the public. If the Crown Prince is also criticized..."

Speaking of this, Hu Yan shook his head, expressing his regret, but he wasn't going to do anything. At this time, let's shoot the first bird and continue to mess around.

The only thing that makes Hu Yan confused... is that he has offended someone recently. Yesterday, he went to Wenyuan Pavilion to meet some great scholars, and Xie Jin was relatively indifferent to him.

And in the Hanlin Academy, it seems that some people have begun to criticize the Guozijian for being overstaffed.

There was even gossip that a censor wanted to impeach him.

This made Hu Yan unbelievable. He was kind to others on weekdays, not to mention that he and Xie Jin were half fellow villagers. He was from Nanchang Prefecture, and Xie Jin was from Jishui County, Ji'an Prefecture. They had always maintained a relatively good personal relationship.

But why did he turn his face in the blink of an eye?
Hu Yan couldn't understand what he thought.

But he finally calmed down, so who cares!
Speaking of which, he has been staring at Zhang Anshi for the past few days!In Zhang Anshi's Hall of Justice, the sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling came out from time to time, which made Hu Yan extra vigilant.

In fact, during the time of Emperor Taizu Gao, Guozijian was very strict in academics. At that time, Guozijian used strict methods, and Guozisheng asked for personal leave to go home and was sentenced to border guards.

After Hu Yan took office, he immediately abolished this regulation. Therefore, the style of study in the Guozijian began to be lazy.

With the appearance of Zhang Anshi now, Hu Yan smelled a trace of Taizu Gao Emperor's presence.

This made Hu Yan very disturbed.

So from time to time, he beat Zhang Anshi in front of him, expressing...not to be harsh on scholars.

When Zhang Anshi was called, he replied: "Teacher... no, Hu Jijiu, I am doing this for the benefit of the students. Isn't it right that a strict teacher produces high-quality apprentices? Let the students let their own way, and teach them to be scholars? Then Don't you become someone like the three murderers in the capital?"

Hu Yan: "..."

Hu Yan just shook his head and remained silent.

A few days later, the Crown Princess Zhang asked Deng Jian to invite Zhang Anshi.

Nowadays, the spinning in the Eastern Palace has reached a large scale. Mrs. Zhang is a person who is good at management, and manages the eunuchs and maids in the Eastern Palace in an orderly manner.

At this time, Mrs. Zhang was wearing commoner clothes and playing with her spinning wheel herself, while Zhu Zhanji was holding his chin beside him, obediently guarding his mother and concubine.

Zhang Anshi walked over slowly, and said with a smile: "Sister's craftsmanship is really amazing. If people outside know that the cotton yarn I bought is actually woven by sister, I'm afraid they will loot it."

Mrs. Zhang stood up and said with a smile, "You have become a doctor yourself, and you can even speak beautifully."

"Why are you looking for me, sister?"

"It's not your brother-in-law. These days, he doesn't think about eating and drinking, and he is in a state of desperation. Now all the people in the capital are making a fuss. They pressed one end, but the other end is dissatisfied. The emperor entrusted him with important matters such as the imperial examination. But the most difficult thing now is to keep a bowl of water level. It’s like this before the start of the course. When the rankings are actually released, will it be okay? Your brother-in-law is now riding a tiger, and he is so worried."

After a pause, Mrs. Zhang continued: "Don't you still know medicine? You have to think of a way to prescribe some nourishing medicinal meals for him. If not, I'm afraid he won't be able to bear it."

Zhang Anshi smiled and said: "What's the use of prescribing medicinal food? You need someone to tie the bell to untie it. In my opinion, as long as the list is released, there will be scholars from the north in high school, unlike Taizu Gaodi and Jianwenshi, who are on the list. They are all scholars from Jiangnan, so it’s fine.”

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhang said: "If you say you are confused, you look a bit smart, but if you say you are smart, you are confused again. How can you just let whoever you want to win the imperial examination? If it is true That would be fine."

Zhang Anshi thought for a while and said, "If there are really scholars from the north... how about high school?"

Zhang said: "If that's the case, there won't be so many gossips, and your brother-in-law can feel at ease. It's just... From my point of view, it may not be easy."
