Chapter 998 lives up to its name
When the Son of Heaven came to the country, in Zhang Shou's imagination, he must sprinkle water to clean the streets, soldiers and horses to open the way, the law to drive the book, and the people to burn incense...... Anyway, it must be a very tedious process, and it must come very slowly.
However, contrary to his expectations, just like when Concubine Yu and Princess Yongping arrived at Yuehua Tower, although there were hundreds of soldiers and horses around, they were far from being strict, from Zhu Ying's early morning to convey the news in a hurry, to the arrival of hundreds of cavalry as the emperor's outpost to Guozijian Street and Jixian Street in front of the defense, and then the news of the emperor's departure, there was only a little more than an hour in between.
This also includes the court meeting when the emperor announced the news.
As for the Guozi Eunuch from the school official to the prisoner, all four or five thousand people from Wuyang came out to greet him, but there was no such thing. It's not that it's rude, it's purely because of the memorial arch at the very door to the Yilun Hall on the middle line...... There are simply not so many people standing!
There are too many people to stand these words, Zhang Shou heard what Zhou Xun said.
Zhang Shou also knew in his heart that in such a prosperous era of Chengping, there must be four or five thousand people in the name of Guozijian, maybe more than that. However, as Zhang Chen and Lu Saburo are called prisoners, they are actually prisoners with a name, and it is absolutely impossible to be in the minority. Even if it is impossible for a dignified son of heaven to count the heads, it doesn't matter if there are dozens of people, there is a difference of one or two thousand, how can you stand up without revealing your stuffing!
As a member of the scholars, at this time, Zhang Shou stood with a group of Guozi doctors, and according to their family background and future official positions, Zhang Chen and Zhu Er, who were likely to be higher than them, took Lu Sanlang and a large group of noble children to fall behind, Zhu Ying and Qi Liang Deng Xiaodu were further behind, and the scholars, supervisors, and family members were clearly divided until the sound of horses' hooves broke the silence.
However, this time it was not the black pressure escort, only one rider came. As the people got closer and closer, Zhang Shou quickly recognized that it was the master of ceremonies he had met in Yuehua Tower.
I saw a man riding a horse alone, so he jumped off the horse, nodded without a smile, and then said lightly: "The emperor dictated, whether it is a scholar or a prisoner, read the book that should be read, and give a lecture that should be lectured." What the emperor wants to see is the real scene of reading, not the false courtesy. ”
After saying this, seeing Zhou Xun leading everyone to salute, he smiled and said, "So, Da Si Cheng, Shao Si Cheng, let's let everyone disperse." The emperor didn't use the big driving book, nor did he use the way to drive the book, he was escorted by the Rui Cavalry Battalion, so everyone didn't have to wait here. ”
Chu Kuan's words were gentle, but Zhou Xun and Luo Yi didn't know that this eunuch seemed to be inconspicuous, and it seemed that he couldn't talk about power, but he was extremely shrewd and powerful, so he was regarded as the best candidate to replace the palm seal of the celebrant and supervisor?
"Then dare to ask Father-in-law Chu, how long will the emperor arrive?"
"How do I know this?" Chu Kuan snorted, his eyes swept through the crowd, but he fell on Zhang Shou, who was dressed in a doctor's crown suit, but still stood out from the crowd, and then said lightly, "In short, what the emperor wants to watch is reading and lecturing." ”
Completely understanding the meaning of Chu Kuan's words, Zhou Xun and Luo Yi immediately turned around without saying a word, and shouted orders to the scholars. Naturally, Zhang Shou, who was the new official who took office but did not visit the two officials at all, and caused a lot of trouble, was completely left aside. Even when the two of them hurriedly sent the officials back to the lecture hall, they ignored Zhang Shou.
Zhou Xun, who was still a second-class official residence, remembered this stubble after walking out a few steps, and then hurriedly turned around and ordered: "Dr. Zhang, since the emperor is here to reward Zhang Chen and other meritorious prisoners, then I bother you to take them here to greet the emperor, and I will go to the Guozi Prison to inspect!"
Before Zhang Shou could agree, he saw Zhou Xun trotting away with an agility that was not commensurate with his age, he couldn't help but be angry and funny, and of course he understood the meaning of the words.
Anyway, you haven't assigned a job for the time being, and Zhang Chen's inmates never attend classes, so who will welcome you if you don't welcome the Son of Heaven?
And when Zhang Shou turned around, he saw that Zhang Chen, Lu Sanlang and others were already smiling around Chu Kuan, gossiping, calling nonsense and everything, however, no one tried to sneakily stuff some valuables such as gold, silver, jade and jade pendants to bribe.
Obviously, Chu Kuan is no longer a character who can use this little thing to dismiss.
Zhang Shou glanced at Zhu Ying, who was talking to Qi Liang Deng Xiaodu, and after a little thought, he walked towards Chu Kuan, intending to try to ask again when the emperor would arrive. However, at this moment, I only heard the sound of horses' hooves in my ears, and like the hundreds of cavalry who had arrived in advance before, a group of men and horses suddenly turned from Jixian Street to this Guozijian Street.
When passing by the Temple of Literature, a group of people got off their horses and galloped in unison, and after that section, they turned over and got on their horses again.
A series of movements were performed in one go, and at first glance, the quality was not inferior to the majestic cavalry he had ever seen.
However, when this group of people arrived in front of the university archway, he only listened to an order, more than 100 people dismounted again, only the first one rode a yellow horse, with a beautiful mustache, looked a little lazy and casual Heroic young man in his early thirties stood tall on the horse, the next moment, people slowly rode over, to the archway before jumping to the ground, the action is extremely vigorous.
At the same time, Chu Kuan, who was still surrounded by Zhang Chen and others just now, had already lined up the crowd and stepped forward.
"The slave and maid greet the emperor. ”
Zhang Shou was stunned at this moment. Such a young man who was mixed in a large group of cavalry, ordered and forbidden, and had just performed a tacit cooperation like a military general, turned out to be today?
Doesn't it mean that people were sick with qi by some camp in the seaside camp before? Looking at people like this now, they don't look like sick and weak sons who can easily be sick with qi!
At this moment, he suddenly understood how his Dr. Guozi came to be, and why the emperor would agree to Zhu Ying so easily, and even treat the so-called meritorious nobles behind him in the Guozi Prison...... In short, this look is a willful son!
In front of Chu Kuan's head to greet and salute as a template, and in the back, there was a large group of famous disciples led by Zhang Chen as a frame of reference, Zhang Shou couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, very glad that he didn't have to become a kowtow worm. He drew the gourd in the same way and took a deep breath, and then heard a warm voice.
"Are you Zhang Shou?" Raise your head and let me see what kind of demeanor the worldly bamboo gentleman in Yingying's mouth, the immortal in the sky. ”
Zhang Shou chuckled in his heart, and when he straightened his waist, he saw that the Son of Heaven who was still in the prime of life had walked unhurriedly to a place that was only seven or eight steps away from him. I saw the person standing with his hands in his hands, staring at him up and down for a long time, and finally laughed: "It's really talented, but I'm very curious, how did you subdue this group of boys!"
Before Zhang Shou could answer, the emperor swiped his right hand and passed Zhang Chen and the others one by one: "Of course, what I am more curious about is how to take down those chaotic troops with these rabble?"
The eldest lady won't tell her about the night......'s drugged, right?
Zhang Shou's mind turned around, but he knew that he must not go to see Zhu Ying at this time, and he could not expect Zhu Ying to remind him that what she said in front of the palace before, he could only bet on his understanding of the personality of this young lady.
Therefore, he smiled slightly and said with sincerity: "Returning to the emperor, of course, it is to show the enemy weakness and lure the enemy to go deeper. ”
"Oh, how can you show weakness to lure the enemy deeper?"
"It's very simple, the minister arranged people at the entrance of the village, and talked to the leader of the chaotic army who came to the village, saying that everyone was worried about the chaotic army on the road, so they sent people to the capital for help, and on the other hand, they relied on the many guards and continued to stay in the teacher's cuiyun room. ”
Zhang Shou paused, and when he saw that the emperor nodded slightly, he continued to make up.
When the rebel army broke in, Yingying stroked the qin, Zhang Chen and Lu Zhu beat the side drums on the side, and the others pretended to be defenseless in the house with their guards. The three teams of the rebel army broke into the three bamboo houses, but they were wiped out all the way, and the remaining two people were taken down by Yingying because the head was taken, and when the emperor attacked, they were taken down by Ah Liu and the guards of the Zhao Guogong Mansion. It can be said that because everyone worked together, we won this victory. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Zhu Ying's voice: "That's right, your majesty, this time you can completely annihilate the chaotic army almost unscathed, thanks to the unity of everyone and working together!"
Zhang Shou suddenly secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that he made the right bet, and Zhu Ying said the same in front of the emperor!
The little gentleman is so kind! The eldest lady is so kind!
At this moment, everyone except Zhang Chen and Lu Sanlang was thinking like this in their hearts. It's just that when the emperor glanced over, they couldn't help but lower their heads, beating drums in their hearts, and secretly encouraging themselves not to show their stuff. Thankfully, after a long time, they finally heard the Emperor's laughter.
"Hehe, that's good. Everyone says that they are useless, but who knows that there is also a day when you are brave and courageous, and you are a teacher who lives up to your name...... Zhang Chen!"
A group of cheeky people who are mixed with credit! Zhang Chen was slandering in his heart, when he suddenly heard this sound, he immediately shook his head and hurriedly responded: "Here!"
"Is what your little gentleman said just now true?"
If it was Zhang Chen in the past, he would definitely expose Zhang Shou's lies, but at this time, he just hesitated and replied aloud: "Yes...... Really!"
Zhang Shou and Zhu Ying, the two who have made the most contributions, are willing to share the profits, even if he is not happy, he has to forget it! After all, he didn't fight the commander that day, and he still relied on Zhang Shou's ridicule to get back face, and he didn't help when he started......
When Lu Sanlang saw that the emperor looked at him again, he quickly nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice: "Emperor Mingjian, of course it's true!"
"Oh. The emperor smiled at this time, as if he was very satisfied, and said, "Yes, very good, the prodigal son will not change his money, so I specially want to borrow the good place of Guozijian today to reward you boys! Okay, Zhang Shou leads the way, you all follow, I rarely come to Guozijian, and I am about to take a good look at this important university built by Taizu himself!"
At that moment, Qi Liang and Deng Xiaodu, who saw the emperor for the first time, couldn't help but marvel in their hearts.
The emperor is so resolute, and his words and deeds are even more like a spring breeze!
