Chapter 685: Inspection
When Zhang Shou got up early the next morning, he was still pinching the music that was finished overnight, and planned to go out of the city on the way to the public school.
Is this not a temporary measure, but an attempt to fight a protracted war?
When such a group of people appeared yesterday morning, and it seemed that he had been guarding all night, he still felt suspicious, but when he went to Ciqing Palace to teach, after listening to the fourth prince say that the second prince might die in a shipwreck, he felt that such an arrangement should be a good intention of the emperor. But looking at this situation now, he is planning to stay for a long time, and he feels very weird.
And when he was about to board the carriage and set off, another group of people came galloping, and when he was about to reach him, the leader shouted, and everyone behind him jumped off his horse in unison, and then hurried to him to salute, and he could not help but feel even more ridiculous.
"Master Zhang, the lowly cavalry battalion is Han Lie, and I am ordered to obey you from now on."
Zhang Shou was really a little confused. He's not a particularly important person, isn't that a bit too much? He glanced at Ah Liu beside him, and saw that people seemed to have their jobs robbed of their own expressions - of course, it was difficult for others to detect the clues from the young man's face, so he smiled and said, "That's really hard work for you." It's just that the other people in front of my house are ......"
The next moment, he got an expected answer: "These are also the people of the Rui Cavalry Battalion, since the night before yesterday, the princes of the capital, the elders, the scholars and other important ministers, the family has sent additional guards to guard, from today, the travel also sent people to follow, from the home garrison to the Hu Cong travel, the total number of guards is 20 to 40 respectively. The emperor specially instructed yesterday evening that the ships of the second prince would sink for no reason, and the safety of the important ministers was the top priority, and there should be no negligence. ”
But I don't seem to be that kind of important minister...... Zhang Shou wanted to say this in his heart, but when the words came to his lips, he felt that this was a bit against the emperor's kindness, so he could only politely thank him again.
To say that the Rui Cavalry Battalion is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, it is said that the emperor will even practice in person in the Xiyuan martial arts arena when he has nothing to do, which is indeed well-trained. When he went out yesterday, he asked his family to send hot soup and tea, but no one was willing to accept it, let alone give a reward. Therefore, even if there were only ten people who were ordered to obey at this time, Zhang Shou sitting in the carriage still felt that he was really swaggering.
And when he went to the Tongzheng Division and went around to send the song and went out of the city to arrive at the public school, today's crown prince Zhan Shi Liu Zhiyuan went to Ciqing Palace in the morning to be a teacher for the third prince, but Lu Juan happened to collide with him who got out of the car, the two glanced at each other, and they all saw the ten mighty and majestic guards behind each other, and they couldn't help but look at each other for a while.
One has already been sent to the former military department of the book, and now the public school sacrificial wine, and the other is just a bachelor of the Hanlin waiter, and the accompanying escort configuration is exactly the same!
Of course, surprise is surprise, but the two people, who are a generation apart, tacitly did not communicate this issue. Lu Juan said hello and went in first, letting people drive his carriage to pick up books first. Although the Lu family's father and son are all quite rich, Lu Sanlang waved the money ticket and merged the bookstore in the capital, Lu Juan simply used a car to transport books, leaving a good reputation.
Compared with those arithmetic scriptures, the first three volumes of Zhang Shouna's "Ge's New Edition of Arithmetic" as an arithmetic enlightenment are very good. Even if you don't want to take the Jiuzhangtang exam, it's very good to do arithmetic enlightenment for your own children. Especially now that the two generations of emperors are all interested in arithmetic, for a well-off family, this kind of investment that does not cost a few dollars is very beneficial.
The carriage of the Lu family left, and Zhang Shou saw that Ah Liu was about to send the coachman to the back carriage and stable to store the carriage, and the team led by Han Lie actually divided four people out, and he planned to follow together, so he couldn't help but be stunned.
The other party seemed to see his doubts, and solemnly explained: "Historically, when assassins assassinate, they either use unexpected means or hide in unexpected places. Among them, the carriage chassis is very easy to hide. Moreover, the carriage is tampered with, or the horses are manipulated, so that the horses are frightened when the carriage is moving, or the wheels and the chassis are broken......"
Zhang Shou listened to the other party talk about a lot of security tips, and he felt that this was similar to checking whether there were any hands and feet in the car, and eliminating the possibility of various mechanical failures and bombs. Faced with this profession, he nodded without hesitation and said, "Then it's all up to you, Ah Liu, you don't have to go, just have them watching." ”
This time, Ah Liu finally stared at everyone a little unconvinced, and when the four people escorted the delicate-faced coachman away, he whispered, "I'll check it too!" ”
Knowing that Ah Liu was talking about whether the carriage had been tampered with, he would also check it carefully, so Zhang Shou glared at the person and said, "Isn't it easier for you to have someone to share it for you?" ”
But isn't the madman already practicing the whole house, and laying out layers of warning measures, so that he can use it? As for going out, unless someone else uses a crossbow arrow...... Even if I use crossbow arrows, I may not be able to wipe out all the enemies, but isn't it easy to flee with your life? There is no need for so many people!
Ah Liu thought so in his heart, and when he looked at the remaining Han Lie and the other six people, he couldn't help but feel that it was very in the way. However, as soon as he entered the public school, he saw that the six people stopped immediately, and they were only patrolling outside the wall, and the little unhappiness he had just now disappeared immediately. sent Zhang Shou to Jiuzhangtang, and he wandered around the public school as always.
For those who come here to study, except for technical classes such as typesetting classes, ordinary students are divided into beginner, intermediate and advanced classes. Those who are illiterate go to the elementary class, and start learning to read and write from the Mongolian reading books "Three Character Classic", "Thousand Character Text", and "Hundred Family Names".
For those who are fluent in writing, according to their qualifications and progress, they are generally enrolled in intermediate classes, with only two courses: Chinese and mathematics. In addition to the Mengxue books, Chinese is to select some relatively simple passages and entries from the Analects, which are subject to general knowledge, while mathematics is learned from addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Those who are both literate and qualified will attend advanced classes and go directly to the entire Analects.
Of course, if someone from the beginner and intermediate classes stands out, they can also go straight to the advanced class.
Because most of the students in public schools come from commoners or even poor people, and they have to take care of family chores or farm work on weekdays, so there is only one day of class every seven days, and the beginner class with a total of 700 students in 14 classes in 14 classes, and the intermediate class with a total of 140 students in seven classes, which is undoubtedly the mainstream of public schools. In this way, there are two beginner classes and one intermediate class every day, with a total of 120 people coming to class.
As for the advanced class, on the contrary, the number of students is not smaller than that of the beginner and intermediate classes. The reason is very simple, although there is a hard standard for children under the age of fifteen, but the poor family can hardly afford to study, but they learned to read and write in a private school or from their elders, and have read some scriptures and histories, but there are many people who are difficult to continue because of their shyness in the past, and the entire Gyeonggi has recruited a full 80 people in two classes!
Because classes start every day and provide a free lunch, the premise is that there is an assessment every half a month, and if they can't pass, they will be dethroned, and the eighty people are still rain or shine, and they are the most diligent group in the entire public school. And their goal is also what Zhang Shou sighed when he talked to Liu Zhiyuan and Lu Juan in private.
Because almost everyone in the advanced class is full of energy, they vow to pass the county examination and the government examination, pass the children's examination, and go to the field in the future! Although Shuntianfu has always had a large number of talents and lifters, it is much easier than the imperial examination devil provinces of Nanzhili and Jiangxi, but this ease is also relatively speaking. The three of them did not think that the free scripture and history courses in the public school could be better than the Xixi of the wealthy family.
After all, in the case that Lu Juan and Liu Zhiyuan will not teach in person, unless they are people with special qualifications, it is difficult to beat those scholarly reading seeds. Therefore, the three of them are very cautious about their future in the imperial examination.
Ah Liu, on the other hand, was only at the level of rough writing, so he had no interest in the advanced class that taught the Four Books, and he could not understand the teaching of typesetting, statistics, and law, so he stayed in front of the intermediate class that taught basic mathematics for a while. Because, Xiao Cheng and Little Peanut are also here.
The one who is here today is Lu Saburo. He and Qi Liang took turns to serve in the East Palace, and were responsible for answering questions and solving doubts for the third prince and others when Zhang Shou was away, but when explaining to ordinary people at this time, the little fat man was not so patient.
Someone who is full of talent points in arithmetic, in the face of a group of guys who can't even memorize Jiujiu songs, it is simply a whipping podium crackling, and that fierce look, even Ah Liu, who is watching the excitement, can't help but look sideways. Seeing that Lu Saburo ordered several people to draw their backs, and when two of them stumbled and couldn't get up, he bent his fingers and counted them.
Sure enough, he only counted to three, and then he saw Lu Sanlang furious: "You are not six or seven-year-old Mengtong, the youngest is eleven or twelve years old, and the eldest is fifteen or sixteen years old, you can all recognize words, you can listen to something so simple, you actually went back to review it for seven days, and there are still people who can't memorize it?" Are you paying attention? ”
"Although the public school does not charge tuition, on the day you come to class, no one will subsidize the income you originally went to farm and work! If you don't come here to study today, you will have one more strong laborer in your family, but if you come to study, your income will be gone that day! Without this money, the rest of your family has to work hard to fill it, and you still don't read it well, okay? ”
Ah Liu originally thought that Lu Saburo would be angry and scolded, but when he heard that people were still reasoning in anger, he couldn't help but show a shallow smile, and remembered the scene when Zhang Shou taught those naughty children in the village.
Dozens of children in the village memorized Tang poems, memorized ninety-nine songs, and learned to read and write, but in the end, they were able to enter Zhang Shoufa's eyes, that is, Qi Liang and Deng Xiaodu. Even so, most of the children in their teens learned to read and write the simplest, and each of them could write 180 words in addition to their own name.
For this, Zhang Shou even asked him to cut two bamboos, split the bamboo joints and bamboo tubes, and made a lot of literacy cards with bamboo cards.
And at this time, Lu Sanlang's words to teach people are exactly the same as Zhang Shou's words when he once taught the naughty children in the village. Of course, every time Zhang Shou scolded, the adults in the village would always hold their children and beat them to the point of crying and calling their mothers, and in the face of punishment and reward, the naughty children would often go to school - of course, cheating was indispensable.
He didn't continue to see how Lu Saburo punished the students, and quietly retreated. In order to memorize the ninety-nine songs, countless naughty children in the village have been subjected to the ring ruler, and he is no exception. That unforgettable experience, he didn't want to go through it a second time.
Although the classroom was warmer, after Ah Liu walked around, it was determined that the classes of the two classes in Jiuzhangtang would last for a long time as always, and those people in the mid-mountain hall ushered in the first teacher, Mr. Tang, at this time, under the suppression of Lu Xuanna, who was personally observing, he rarely took the class seriously, so he quietly slipped out, but he did not alarm the guards who were patrolling.
However, instead of carelessly kicking out the gym in the outer city to find an opponent or ambush the three sects and nine streams as he did a few months ago, he stepped on the walls and roofs of various houses and shops in the vicinity to make sure that there were no suspicious signs, and went to the abacus hall that was still under construction to check the progress, but found several scholars who were inquiring.
As for the content of the inquiry, it is the borrowing system that Zhang Shou had previously released in Guozijian.
The one who stayed here to supervise the work was an old family member of the Lu Mansion, probably because there were too many people who came to ask these days, he pointed to the sign on the side with some impatience, and said angrily: "It's all written on it, how it will be operated in the future, how to borrow books, it is clearly written on it!" ”
He originally wanted to put up a shelf, but Leng Buding found that there was a young man not far away who was quietly looking at him, it was Ah Liu, who recognized the other party, he was sweating on his forehead, and his originally very arrogant attitude immediately changed a lot, but he said earnestly: "The master generously built such a scripture hall, and he will lend a lot of scriptures and history essays when the time comes, all because of Bachelor Zhang's face......"
Not interested in hearing people praise Zhang Shou, Ah Liu turned around and left, and when he went to Xinglong Tea House to spare a circle, when he finally returned to the public school, it was already almost noon. During such a daily inspection, in addition to listening and watching, he also put two steamed buns, three buns and a bowl of soy milk in his stomach, but at this time, he missed the next lunch.
Well, there was originally a room in the public school, but now the room is only left with the function of heating, and the small restaurants on the food street near the Xinglong Tea House have already covered the food of the teachers and students in the public school. The students' food is steamed buns and flower rolls, and they are sent to be steamed and steamed.
The division commanders, including Lu Juan, Liu Zhiyuan and Zhang Shou, are one meat, one vegetable and one soup, which is stipulated by Liu Zhiyuan. Those rich guys in Banshan Hall can order their own according to the menu. And only him...... Students and teachers can enjoy double meals.
However, when Ah Liu came to the front of the public school, he was not met by those who came to deliver food, but by a large group of brightly clad guards of the Rui Cavalry Battalion, compared to the guards of Zhang Shou and Lu Juan before, there were dozens of people now. And what was guarded by these people was a very low-key looking carriage. But Ah Liu recognized it at a glance.
It was clearly the carriage that the third prince, the crown prince, had taken in the last time he came to listen to the open class!
With a furrowed brow, he stepped forward straightforwardly. The unimpeded face in the passage palace was easily brushed this time. He came to the carriage very smoothly, and before the curtain of the carriage was raised, he asked a little suspiciously: "Didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say that he would not leave the palace often, so as not to waste manpower?" ”
