Chapter 623: True to Truth
Even the idlers in the capital have always liked to talk about all kinds of officialdom affairs with outsiders, in order to show off that they are well-informed as the people at the feet of the Son of Heaven.
Because it is difficult for anyone to take the trouble to find out who is behind the scenes, and then talk about their own judgment to others.
Therefore, the emperor was directly suspicious in front of the Empress Dowager of Qingning Palace, and even the second prince of the eldest prince, and even the Yeshu people who had been defeated for more than ten years turned out, which really can't be said that the Son of Heaven is too suspicious. Because...... I really can't find a logical mastermind behind the scenes! Could it be true that all kinds of contradictions have been suppressed for a long time, so they always erupt before the crown prince?
Therefore, although the Empress Dowager advised the Emperor not to immediately target the Guozi Eunuch - even if he was already deeply dissatisfied with those scholars - the Emperor was furious at the court meeting that day, and after returning and losing his temper with the Empress Dowager, he immediately convened the ministers of the cabinet in the afternoon and decided to dismiss the prisoners who made trouble that day, and all the scholars were fined from top to bottom for one year to three months.
As for Dr. Guozi Zhang Shou, the emperor simply dismissed him.
In the face of such good news, Confucius scholars were naturally overjoyed at first, and even a few Shangshu who felt that Zhang Shou had a lot to do, after being stunned, all felt that the emperor was rare this time without partiality, and finally hit the board on Zhang Shou, but immediately after, the emperor said something that made them all shocked.
"Since the Guozi Prison can't tolerate Jiuzhangtang, then according to Zhang Jiuzhang's meaning, let's directly transfer Jiuzhangtang to the public school outside the city. Not only Jiuzhang Hall, but also Banshan Hall, saving those scholars from looking at these Hansu students who study the scriptures, and seeing these noble children who are not doing their jobs are not pleasing to the eye, and the vacated classrooms can just make the six classes a little loose, so that they will not be crowded together after a lecture! ”
Confucius scholar frowned, and was about to object, but Wu Ge immediately echoed loudly: "The emperor's words are very good! Jiuzhangtang and Banshan Hall were originally incompatible with the atmosphere of Guozijian, but it was just right to move to other places. In this way, the dispute will be resolved, and the burden will be reduced for Dr. Zhang. He is still a lecturer in the East Palace, and he has to fight with the school officials and supervisors all day long, and he is tired and panicked! ”
Seeing that Wu Ge Lao actually started to be a sound worm again, Scholar Confucius was so angry that he couldn't expect the emperor to laugh indifferently and said: "Yes, he has too many positions, and it doesn't hurt for me to subtract one for him." Well, anyway, he is not a doctor, he is also a lecturer in the East Palace, and the Hanlin attendant lectures on a bachelor, and in the future, he will change the title from Dr. Zhang to Bachelor Zhang. ”
Speaking of this, the emperor said lightly: "Those prisoners of Jiuzhangtang used to work as teachers in public schools, and this time Banshan Hall moved over, and also let them go to the public school to practice and have a good experience of the people's suffering!" Well, since they are not in the country, the word prison is not suitable for them. Since it is half reading and half speaking, to guide those students in public schools to read and hyphenation, it is called a guide! ”
Elder Wu Ge immediately rushed to praise again: "The emperor is sage! This word is simply apt! ”
This time, even the emperor couldn't help but glance at Wu Ge Lao - he can pat himself on the back, look at his eyes, and more importantly, he can make good decisions at critical moments, of course he uses this kind of talent very easily, who will remember, even Jiang Ge Lao, who stepped down gloomily before, has not stayed in the cabinet as long as the Ah Wu in front of him?
But this time, he couldn't help but want to play tricks, so he said slowly: "You don't need to put gold on my face, I'm not so idle, and nothing has happened, so I want to think of a new name for these prisoners, which is what Zhang Jiuzhang suggested." ”
If it were someone else, he would be attacked by the emperor so suddenly, and he would have to be embarrassed when he saw Confucius and other colleagues looking at him mockingly.
But who is Wu Ge Lao? He smiled casually as usual: "It turned out that it was suggested by Master Zhang?" Oh, what a hero in the world is a young man, worthy of the emperor's attention, and he knows how to match the name with the truth! ”
As he spoke, he smiled and nodded at the Confucius scholar, and when he saw the other party's shameless, despicable, and shameless expression, he suddenly suddenly asked, "Your Majesty, is that strange case involving the celebrant ......?"
Compared with the dispute between Guozijian, the Confucius scholars are of course most concerned about the strange case rather than a farce. Since Wu Ge was old, he immediately picked it up in a deep voice.
"Now there are many discussions, and the dispute between the country and the prison has actually arisen because of this, if it is not thoroughly investigated, I am afraid it will be difficult to settle. Although the Shen County Order of Wanping County is a capable person, I am afraid that it will be ...... to deal with this matter."
"I'm afraid of what? With such a simple case, I'm still afraid that he will lenient the criminal? Seeing that the Confucian scholar dragged out a long note as he spoke, and stopped, the emperor frowned and said bluntly, "I wanted to find out where the rumors came from behind the prisoner's back, but although Shen Qing said that he was resolute and immediately tortured harshly, he insisted that it was just hearsay, and he was resentful. ”
"As for Liu Feng, the steward of the Qianqing Palace who told Shiro right and wrong, after I asked the staff to interrogate, I didn't ask anything, so I thought it was all him alone. Otherwise, could it be that someone in the inner court or the outer court can instruct him? The emperor kept silent and didn't mention whether Liu Feng was alive or dead, but just casually threw out a statement.
Confucius University Scholar was willing to let it go so gently, Huo Ran got up and said: "However, when the celebrant selected people, he actually taught those orphans who had no father or mother, did not talk about filial piety and family affection, and did not talk about family affection, this matter is not trivial!" The palace attendants, if they really teach like this, wouldn't it be against the desires of heaven and people, and where can there be loyalty without filial piety? ”
"That's naturally Liu Feng's mouth and nonsense to Shiro!"
The emperor denied it, and then said categorically: "My dynasty has always ruled the world with filial piety, how can you be loyal if you are not filial?" That's Liu Feng deliberately smearing the celebrant eunuch! Shiro was talking nonsense outside, and after returning to the palace yesterday, he regretted it at the beginning, and today he has been guilty of the Qing Ning Palace, and then the Queen Mother ordered Zhang Jiuzhang to discipline him, and now he is not only under the precept ruler, but also in the Fengxian Hall at this time to copy the "Book of Filial Piety"! ”
What the? The Queen Mother didn't care about the four princes, but let Zhang Shou take care of it?
Even the Confucius scholars thought there was something wrong with their ears. You know, the Queen Mother is not a maverick emperor, the emperor may play this incredible trick, but the Queen Mother has always been very strong and strict! Not to mention anything else, I think when the emperor was a child, he was not less severely taught by the queen mother!
He opened his mouth to ask the reason, as Zhang Shou's fellow senior brother, Chen Shangshu of the household department asked very cautiously: "The minister dares to ask, why is Master Zhang disciplining the four princes?" ”
"Isn't he the teacher of the Four Princes?" The emperor asked rhetorically, and when he saw that everyone, including Wu Ge Lao, was dumbfounded, he said earnestly, "Since he was entrusted to the teacher, then let the teacher discipline him, which is also in line with the name." After Shiro came back from being beaten outside the palace, he invited himself to go to Fengxian Hall to copy the "Book of Filial Piety", which shows deep introspection. ”
Hearing this, Wu Ge was not allowed to sing that the four princes knew that they could change their mistakes, and they were very good, but Chen Shangshu was surprised that Zhang Shou really dared to fight, as for Confucius and others, they felt that the emperor's words were not true.
However, even if they instigated people to write a letter behind their backs to continue to play on this matter, they would not make trouble with the prisoners of Guozijian...... Or like the scholar who instructed him behind the scenes, he directly pointed the finger at Zhang Shoujiao and ruined the four princes.
Everyone knows that the emperor drove away the eldest prince and the second prince, but he loves the third prince and the fourth prince very much, and those two little guys can't be touched. As for Zhang Shou...... It is still unknown whether Zhu Ying is the daughter of Zhu Jing, the Duke of Zhao or the emperor, even if it is just Aiwu and Wu, there is no doubt that the emperor favors Zhang Shou, not to mention that Zhang Shou also has a wise and brave biological mother?
So, seeing that the emperor quickly solved the matter of the Guozijian with a knife, but he was concerned about the affairs of the celebrant eunuch, Confucius University and others decided to grasp the key points after going back, and then they would not continue to quarrel with the emperor.
But when the group left the Wenhua Hall and returned to their respective official offices, everyone learned a strong news.
It was not Zhang Shou who beat the four princes, but the one around Zhang Shou who is now becoming more and more famous, and it is said that the emperor often admires Ah Liu. Moreover, not only did the four princes receive twenty lashes, but Zhang Shou himself also suffered ten lashes!
It is said that the fourth prince did not stop his teacher from being blamed on his behalf, and he cried so much that he was heartbroken. And when the third prince who went after saw this scene, he was so angry that he slapped the fourth prince in the face! You must know that these two brothers used to be the most harmonious and friendly, not to mention beating their own younger brothers, in the past, the four princes were blamed, and it is said that the three princes pounced on them to intercede, and they couldn't wait to replace each other.
All kinds of news are flying all over the sky, and he planned to strategically give up Zhang Shou before, and the Confucian scholar who mainly attacked the master of ceremonies sighed that he was really prescient, and he did not hold on to Zhang Shou and the four princes in front of the emperor.
And when the group of scholars in Guozijian received a report from someone that they could get through the difficulties with this fine, and Zhang Shou was even dismissed from Dr. Guozi, they were initially overjoyed, but after learning that the four princes were responsible, most of them were like five thunderbolts.
Zhang Shou actually ignored the dignity of the teacher so much, so able to endure and pretend, the third prince and the fourth prince were all deceived and dizzy, if this matter was remembered by the three princes, even if they passed the danger this time, wouldn't the prince hold a grudge in the future?
And Zhang Shou, who stayed in the Outer City Public School for most of the day and discussed many things with Lu Juan and Liu Zhiyuan, when he returned to Zhangyuan, he ushered in the largest and powerful onlookers in history on the road, so that he was a little overwhelmed by people who were originally riding a horse, and had to board the car to take shelter.
And before the time was over, someone actually recommended his children and grandchildren on the street, begging him to be included...... At this moment, he really had no choice but to let Ah Liu catch the car and run away.
However, when Ah Liuyi, who was copying the path, skillfully turned and turned, so that Zhang Shou was completely indistinguishable from the southeast and northwest, he simply lowered the curtain and let Ah Liu go around in circles, and he didn't know how long it took, but the car suddenly stopped in an alley. Immediately after, he heard Ah Liu's voice.
"Young master, the gate, back door and all side doors of Zhang Yuan are blocked, and there are no three steps and one post outside the wall, and one sentry in five steps."
Zhang Shou couldn't help but cover his head and groaned: "As for it? ”
"Of course." This time, Ah Liu's answer was categorical, "Because everyone thinks that the young master is a good teacher." There are many famous teachers in the world, but most of them are only those students with outstanding qualifications, and as for the dull ones, most of them are left to their own devices. But these students, young master, how many people who were once stupid have gained a good reputation? ”
"It's not all because of me."
Zhang Shouke didn't mean to attribute all the credit to himself, and found that Ah Liu, who had just suddenly become very wordy outside, didn't speak, so he said with a smile: "You kid always thinks I'm the best, but that's because you follow me all day long, and you don't have the opportunity to meet a better teacher than me." Besides, I'm not without selfishness, like ......"
"Like what?"
As the curtain of the car was opened, Zhang Shou showed Zhu Ying's angry face before meeting, and it was suddenly like a person in a dream. But soon, he realized that Ah Liu must have met Zhu Ying halfway down the road, and deliberately stopped in this alley at this time! Anyway, this kid is usually obedient to him, but as soon as he met Zhu Ying, he turned against him!
And Zhu Ying stared at Zhang Shou for a long time, and suddenly reached out like lightning to grab Zhang Shou's left wrist, but with her martial arts, this move that was invincible in the past fell short, because Zhang Shou just sank her shoulders and shrank back, and her very powerful move failed to work. But she still didn't care, leaned forward and probed again, and finally jumped into the car.
In this small carriage, having a hand-to-hand fight with Zhu Ying without any fragrant meaning, Zhang Shou of course respects Bumin - and his little self-defense technique is not used for girls.
Therefore, he could only helplessly watch Zhu Ying finally grab his left wrist with both hands after a few failures, and then stared at the left hand wrapped in layers of white cotton cloth without stopping. For fear that she would have some drastic actions in the car, he hurriedly reminded: "Yingying, Ah Liu is just acting like this, it's okay!" ”
"What do you look like? Ah Liu, will he do such a difficult job? Aunt Yuquan is also skilled in martial arts and knows medical skills, if Ah Liu fakes a fight, she won't be able to see it? How can there be a teacher in this world who is responsible for his students, Ah Shou, you always do something different! ”
didn't wait for Zhang Shou to explain, but Zhu Ying smiled, and suddenly reached out and hugged Zhang Shou's neck: "But I just like you to be different from others!" After the fourth prince returned to the palace, he honestly went to Fengxian Hall to cry and blame himself, I think he really knew that he was wrong this time! I intercede for him, and you take the blame for him, but the two of us have a tacit understanding! ”
