Chapter 50 —Come to the Academy of National Arts
Bold and nosy...... Is it a compliment?
Zhu Biao was dizzy, and his brain didn't seem to be good, he only knew that he blinked his eyes and looked at Zhu Di, at such a close distance, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince was really handsome and shining, so dazzling!
He didn't speak, and Zhu Di was not in a hurry to say more, he continued to unconsciously rub the back of Zhu Biao's hand, and thousands of thoughts turned in his heart: Who is this young man? What is the relationship with the prince? Was he really involved in today's assassination unintentionally...... Or is it also one of the means to get him close to himself?
I don't know why, thinking that Zhu Biao might not really want to save him, Zhu Di's mood became very unpleasant, he lowered his eyes to hide his feelings, and his thumb drew circles and circles on the back of Zhu Biao's hand.
These two fell into a strange silence, but in the eyes of onlookers, it was so weird, it was simply ambiguous!
I saw the four princes and the brave young man who saved him holding hands and staring, the young man's eyes were as warm as the sun, full of enthusiasm and no regrets who were willing to give his life, the four princes were moved, shocked, he couldn't bear such agitated feelings, and closed his eyes shyly.
――The above is from the brains of the onlookers in the principal's office
"Hmm......" Zhu Biao tried hard to push his sluggish brain, and finally thought of a topic that he could talk to his idol, "What did you say when you were at the airport?" ”
"What?" Zhu Di was interrupted by him, and looked at him slightly.
Zhu Biao stumbled and explained: "Through that super big square, you said a word to me, and I haven't guessed it yet." ”
"Oh." Zhu Di remembered, raised his lips and asked with a smile: "What do you think I said?" ”
The Four Princes laughed! It seems that this is not the first time he and this brave teenager have met, what have they experienced together in those years to have a tacit understanding of life and death for each other!
-- The onlookers continued to make up for their brains
Goldfish? Zhu Biao didn't dare to say such an unreliable guess, so he closed his mouth and shook his head vigorously.
Zhu Di smiled again, but refused to simply satisfy Zhu Biao's curiosity. Perhaps it was because the onlookers' brains were too big, and the overactive brain waves were sizzling in the room, and he finally turned his attention to them.
The people who can enter this room at this time are all the senior officials who participated in today's activities, from left to right, the former president of the Guoshu Academy, the head of the Ministry of Rites who presided over the inauguration ceremony of the new dean, the Guozijian Siye sent by Song Ne to represent him, and even a Zhan Shifu Zuo Zanshan, who claimed to be coming to watch the ceremony on behalf of the prince.
Zhu Di took away his smile and looked at these people expressionlessly, everyone was suddenly shocked by his gaze, and there was no longer the relaxed and funny psychology just now, he bent his head in fear, and wanted to hide his face in the floor.
"Xing Baihu."
I don't know when I came in, and the brocade guards silently stepped forward to salute.
"Take them all down."
…………
……
The ordinary phrase "take it down" set off a monstrous wave in the hearts of all officials, because everyone in Beijing knows what it means to be taken down by Jinyiwei - Beizhen Fusi who is dark under the lights! The Dark Prison! Bloody torture to extract confessions!
As a remnant of feudalism in a civilized society and an illegal institution in a country governed by the rule of law, Jinyi Weibei Fusi receives joint protests from countless groups every year, demanding that it be punished□□ and it is said that the newly established House of Representatives reports at least ten proposals a day to reduce the authority of Beizhen Fusi, but unfortunately none of them can get a majority in the Senate.
There is no other reason, everyone knows that Beizhen Fusi can't fall, it won't collapse, because there is an emperor standing behind it.
His Majesty, the greatest emperor of mankind in the interstellar age, no matter how enlightened, benevolent, and reasonable, like all emperors of the feudal era, regarded him and his sons as superior to others, and needed strength to maintain this privilege.
The so-called privileged class is when he is willing to be reasonable, he will be reasonable; When he is unwilling to reason, Beizhen Fuji is his reason.
The officials began to shout, and with a gesture of the punishment of hundreds of households, several brocade-clothed guards strode in with a straight face, and two or three people waited for an official, gagged, wrenched, and struggled to remove the joints, and after a while, the well-dressed officials were tied into meat dumplings, each carrying one, and after saluting, he silently retreated, and even thoughtfully pulled the door.
Zhu Biao: "......"
What happened? He thought, "Did I just witness the scene of violent law enforcement?" Just because of the words of the fourth prince, these big officials were deprived of their personal freedom without dignity, should he be afraid?
He peeked at Zhu Di, and then looked down at his hand, which was still being pinched and played by Zhu Di.
I can't seem to be afraid......
It's really strange that when Zhu Di met for the first time, he was prompted by the security gate that he was carrying contraband, and he took the initiative to go up and talk to him, without suspecting him of being a bad person; The second time they met, Zhu Di was treated as a terrorist/element, and everyone believed that he was the only one who inexplicably felt that he was a good person; The third time they met, Zhu Di killed someone in front of him, but he asked him to hold his hand, his heart was beating fast, but not because he was afraid...... Why not be afraid?
Zhu Di didn't notice the young man's careful thoughts, he leaned back in the leather chair in the room that had quieted down again, and touched the armrest with his free left hand, this touch was obviously a soft calfskin, the cow that was skinned was no more than three months old, in the nineteenth district, the soldiers preyed on one such calf at the military court, more than three can be shot directly.
This is civilized society, he sarcastically raised the corners of his lips, the dean of a national art academy, and he actually thinks he is a privileged class.
Xing Baihu pushed the door in again and saluted: "The inauguration ceremony has been prepared." ”
Zhu Di nodded, stood up and walked out, I don't know if it was intentional or I had forgotten it at all, and I was still dragging a Zhu Biao in my hand.
Xing Baihu didn't dare to remind him that if he had been a little ignorant of the four princes before, Zhu Di took down all the senior officials present at the time of the assassination in one fell swoop, such courage, or the arrogance of being unreasonable and using the topic to play, also shocked the arrogant soldiers of Beizhen Fusi.
Take a look first, Xing Baihu said in his heart, look at what kind of attitude the emperor has towards this matter, you can know whether the person in front of you is really confident or bluffing, and you must be a little low before the results come out, don't be like those stupid civil officials, who look down on the four princes in their hearts and still show their faces, and run to touch their heads.
In Xing Baihu's thoughtful gaze, Zhu Di led Zhu Biao out of the dean's office, the two of them were tall and short, one fast and one slow, and the pace was actually very coordinated.
The fourth prince was very satisfied with Zhu Biao's cooperation, and asked without looking back: "Do you have any wishes?" ”
Ay? Zhu Biao looked up at him, this question came a little suddenly, but it was also reasonable, after all, he was the life-saving benefactor of the Four Princes today, except for the demon in the bottle who had been in prison for too long and had a broken brain, all the big people would gratefully fulfill the wishes of the life-saving benefactor.
His hand was a little sore, he held the stone egg up, and said tentatively: "Anything is fine?" ”
Zhu Di bowed slightly.
"I want to learn magic," Zhu Biao immediately said the first thought in his mind, "but I am very poor in cultural classes, so can you let me enter without taking the exam?" It would be nice if you could provide accommodation free of tuition...... I hope that the environment will be better, the campus must be large, after all, it will take four years, and it must not be the kind of pitiful appearance of the Hope Primary School in the mountainous area, so I will feel very embarrassed to be free of tuition, and I always feel that it is because I have not paid the tuition that the school will be so dilapidated......"
His nervous expression was polarized, and he either couldn't find where his tongue was, or he became gushing, and the corners of his mouth twitched when Xing Baihu listened to it in the back.
Zhu Di suddenly stopped, and in front of him was the exit of the corridor, the dazzling sunlight shone on the dragon flag of the Ming Dynasty, and under the flag-raising platform were all the teachers and students of the Guoshu Academy lined up in neat squares.
He squinted his eyes at the dragon flag waving in the wind, and the black dragon on the apricot yellow background seemed to soar for nine days.
"Let's come to the National Academy of Arts." He interrupted the child's endless nagging.
Zhu Biao: (⊙⊙)
"Your Highness," Xing Baihu couldn't bear it anymore and took a huge risk to come up and admonish, "There is no magic department in the National Art Academy. ”
Zhu Di glanced at him lightly, and saw that Xing Baihu almost didn't lie down.
"Not yesterday, but from today."
The four princes were finally willing to let go of Zhu Biao's hand, and walked into the sunshine proudly, leaving a mighty and domineering declaration.
"As the dean of the Guoshu Academy, I announce that from today onwards, you will be the head and tutor of the Department of Magic, and you will also be the first freshman to enter the school."
