"In this case, Hong Qing can go back in a few days."

The emperor said just a dozen words, Zhang Shou was not surprised at all, Yue Shanchang showed a shocked expression, and Hong Shanchang had a flat face at this time. He bowed deeply and thanked him one by one, and when he straightened up, his face was frank and swaying.

"Thank you to the emperor for your success! The minister has no intention of being in the official career, and he has no intention of being prominent, he only seeks peace in the world, the people are simple, and the atmosphere in the court is solemn, so that he can teach some righteous men and gentlemen for the country. The minister recommended the little girl, also because the little girl was indifferent to fame and fortune and did not seek wealth and nobility, so if there were other virtuous women who were willing, it was not necessary for her. ”

"The eldest prince used to be because Concubine Jing was a derelict mother, so he would make mistakes again and again, if there is a good wife to advise, in the future, there will be a beloved son to accompany him, and he will always be able to change a little. Not only is this the case, but so is the second prince. The minister heard that from the power of the capital to the people, marriage often looks at the door first, and then looks at the appearance, and the character is often ignored when things that cannot be seen. ”

"For example, the second prince is said to have humiliated the daughter of the official eunuch on the street because of hearsay rumors, which is the reason for this bad habit! So ......" He paused, and his eyes suddenly fell on Zhang Shou on the side.

Although the minister does not agree with Dr. Zhang's concept and is not used to his style, he still has to praise Zhao Guogong for being able to abide by the marriage contract of the year and marry his daughter to Dr. Zhang, who is completely incommensurate with the family. The wives of the chaff do not go to court, and many officials who are prosperous say so, but they are all concubines and maids. And the marriage contract set for the children when he was poor and lowly even said that if the contract is broken, the contract will be broken after it is revealed, which is simply a poor character! ”

"The word marriage, shouldn't it be to marry a daughter-in-law and marry a virtuous, and marry a daughter to marry a virtuous?"

Zhang Shou, who was listening to the side, was simply speechless. As soon as the old man came up, he first spoke sharply and counted him down, and then he put a high hat on him, or his future father-in-law, Zhao Guogong Zhu Jing, if he wanted to write it off like this, he naturally couldn't let it go so generously. But now he can hear it, people are just stereotypical to old-fashioned old men!

What age are you, and you still want to be dead in your marriage and daily life? This is the same as some old pedants who are dead to pick out how the ancient sages are doing! Everyone understands the truth, but in real life, there are a few people who don't take care of their interests first, is it useful for you to call on everyone to talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality?

Seeing that Zhang Shou and Yue Shanchang were all looking at him, the emperor's own face unconsciously became a little weird, and he couldn't cry or laugh in his heart. You must know that the four great Confucians he summoned to Beijing this time have all sent people to visit, and they are sure that they are not confined to the so-called sage books, but are well-read, and they have been involved in various subjects, and they can even be said to be quite accomplished people.

For example, this Yuzhang Academy, the head of Hongshan, although he has set a variety of rules for the academy, there are many teachers in the academy who advocate retro and the former Taiwanese admonition Qingliu, so it is not as important as Zhaoming Academy, which attaches importance to water conservancy and agriculture, but there are also quite interesting highlights in various subjects. The people sent out visited and found out that there were some interesting incidents in Yuzhang Academy.

For example, the telescope that was paid tribute by the Jiangxi political envoy and could see things in the distance was said to have been made of white crystal by the hand of an unknown student of Yuzhang Academy, and had been introduced by the Ordnance Bureau. For example, an unsolved mystery case in Nanchang Mansion was solved by a student of Yuzhang Academy who provided ideas to solve the case, so it was finally solved, and the ideas were quite interesting.

Let's say ...... Yuzhang Academy actually has a class that recruits female students. And it is not the kind of rich and noble family who lives a worry-free life, and reading is just to recite poetry and spend a good time, but for girls from poor families, and even widows. In addition to the needle girl red, there are many interesting practical skills......

If the students are like this, the teacher who is in charge of the academy can be imagined.

It is for this reason that the emperor who felt curious added Hong Shanchang to the list of summons this time, who would have thought that Hong Shanchang would suddenly come to a book that made him shocked and angry before he arrived in the capital, and he was ashamed to recommend a candidate for the eldest princess.

And when he summoned people, the old man opened his mouth to a bunch of words that sounded very reasonable, but in fact were extremely pedantic.

At this moment, after seeing that Hong Shanchang said this, he bowed directly to the ground, and the emperor, who had 110,000 thoughts in his heart, tried to manage his expression, and then nodded slightly and said: "Hong Qing's words are indeed reasonable. ”

Who doesn't know that marrying a daughter-in-law and marrying a virtuous woman...... Is the question visible? When his queen first entered the palace, she also had a good appearance and temperament, and the queen mother was not just a candidate for him based on the other party's family background. But there is a way that people's hearts are changeable, and now good people, who knows what it will be like in three or five years!

However, as soon as Zhang Shou heard the emperor's ambiguous words, he knew that something was wrong. Sure enough, the next moment, Hong Shanchang, who straightened his waist, was as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and he was so excited that he couldn't be more excited.

"Your Majesty! God bless me! In the opinion of the ministers, it is time to rectify the current atmosphere in the DPRK and China......"

Seeing that such an old man who had just refuted himself and was about to start talking about it again, Zhang Shou hurriedly took the opportunity to whisper a few words to the fourth prince.

So, the four princes, who hated these big truths the most, immediately ran to the emperor's side, and then whispered to the emperor just like Zhang Shou had just talked to him, but he didn't see Hong Shanchang's different color.

And because of the bear child's errand, the emperor who got Zhang Shou's prompt finally found the key to ending today's conversation. He coughed lightly and interrupted Hong Shanchang's mouth in time.

"Hong Qing, I am really a little curious about Ling Yan. In this way, the marriage of children is not just something that I can decide, and the queen mother is also heartbroken for the eldest prince. Since Ling Yan entered Beijing with you, she will go to Qingning Palace tomorrow to meet the Queen Mother. Yue Qing arrived in the capital a few days ago, so he rested for a few days, and you just arrived in the capital, so you might as well go back to your residence to rest first. ”

Speaking of this, seeing that Hong Shanchang opened his mouth as if he wanted to speak, the emperor was not sure whether the person wanted to agree or fight, and immediately said domineeringly: "This is my will, not to discuss with you!" Come on, send Hongshan Chang back to Yashe! ”

Only then did Hong Shanchang say yes with some disappointment. As the celebrant who had brought him before hurried in, he didn't realize that he was so old that he had been stunned several times today, and he bowed meticulously, and then stepped back in front of the emperor, and finally turned around and went out without saying a word. Every move is deeply in line with etiquette.

As soon as he left, in the main hall of the huge Qianqing Palace, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, even the young four princes.

And Yue Bufan, the mountain chief of Zhaoming Academy, who has always paid attention to his demeanor, is also like this, but it is completely because he was summoned with such a stubborn old man, and his mood at this time is really depressed.

Therefore, after taking a long breath, he immediately spoke: "Your Majesty, Hong Shanchang also said something inappropriate on the way here before, but I also ask the emperor to be a little more tolerant for the sake of his seniority. As far as the minister knows, over the years, Yuzhang Academy has been full of talents, just because Hong Shanchang is not only strict with himself, but also stricter with others. ”

He didn't plan to spend all the ink and color on others, so as soon as he said this, he immediately changed the topic back to himself: "Each academy has its own rules, such as Zhaoming Academy, students are accepted into the door, and the practice depends on each person, except for the scriptures and history, the rest depends on the students' own interests." ”

"And because Zhaoming Academy has the most poor families and even poor farmers, there are really many people who are interested in agricultural science. They all hope to be able to apply what they have learned to their hometowns, so that their hometown parents can earn an extra three or five buckets a year and live and work in peace and contentment. Nowadays, there are three crops of rice in Dongyue and Qiongnan, and many of them are improved and spread by the students of Zhaoming Academy......"

Zhang Shou sat next to him, listening intently to Yue Shanchang talking about how his academy paid attention to agricultural science, how to improve seeds, and how to work hard to research more efficient fertilizers, and compared people with Hongshan Chang, who was just an old pedant, thinking that Lu Sanlang and Ji Jiu had made him pay attention to the four virtuous people specially summoned by the emperor, and Yue Shanchang's performance at this time did not live up to their vigilance.

And when Yue Shanchang turned to talk about water conservancy after agricultural science, he gave people a high score in his heart. Because this person was there to lay out the facts and reason, he took out the two famous water conservancy ministers who had come out of Zhaoming Academy, but did not talk about their merits, but only talked about the example they made to the younger generations, and now there are many students of Zhaoming Academy who are presiding over the repair of canals in Guangdong.

This time, even the four princes, who were disgusted at the beginning, gradually disappeared from their impatient expressions at this time, and even listened while grinding Zhang Shou to explain to him those terms that he didn't understand.

The emperor even asked while listening, and when it was confirmed that Yue Shanchang was indeed quite talented and learned as he had been visited, he bowed his head slightly, and then suddenly asked: "Old Master Ge once suggested to me that the calendar used at the beginning of the founding of the country has become more and more inaccurate now, so I ask to follow the Yuan Shi Guo Shoujing Four Seas Test to recalculate, I don't know what Yue Qing thinks?" ”

Suddenly asked about a field that he was completely unfamiliar with, Yue Shanchang suddenly changed color slightly, and he almost couldn't help but look at Zhang Shou. Fortunately, he has a very strong ability to control himself, and he immediately recovered, and immediately said with a smile: "There is a specialization in the art industry, and there is such a thing as the calendar, and Mrs. Ge knows more than a half-witted person like Chen, and the emperor is better than the minister even if he asks Dr. Zhang." ”

Without waiting for the emperor to look at him, Zhang Shou immediately said without thinking: "Your Majesty, the minister is only a little familiar with the scriptures, and Yu Calendar is just a layman, but since Yue Shanchang attaches so much importance to agricultural science, I think I should know whether today's calendar is suitable for today's agricultural time." ”

His question was pushed back so bluntly, and Yue Shanchang was suddenly a little caught off guard.

If he is seven points of vigilance against Zhang Shou, then he is at least nine points of vigilance against Zhu Jing behind Zhang Shou, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is twelve points of vigilance against Zhang Shou's teacher, Ge Yong.

Although the person is no longer in the court, the court is full of all kinds of legends of this old lady, and now that people are so old, they still have to implement the four seas test and reformulate the calendar, how do he think and feel that this old lady is paving the way for Zhang Shou.

So, even if Zhang Shou said that he was a layman to the calendar, he immediately paid attention to it, cheered up and said: "Since the emperor does not hesitate to inquire about the minister, a layman, but Dr. Zhang is so humble, then the minister thinks that the old lady Ge is old, although the minister heard that there are two old gentlemen, Qi Chu, Sasuke, but after all, he is old and frail, and this matter cannot all rely on those people in Qin Tianjian." ”

"Therefore, the minister suggested that it is advisable to issue an edict to the world, and allow people who are proficient in arithmetic to recommend themselves to the government, and then summon them to the capital for the emperor's inquiry."

Hearing Yue Shan Chang say such a sentence with an unusually sincere attitude, Zhang Shou almost slapped his thigh and applauded, and then greatly praised Yue Shan Changshen for his assistance. You must know that these people who are now recruited into Jiuzhangtang can only be regarded as potential mathematical seedlings with decent talent and no future, and they are still far from the word talent, and those real high-end mathematical talents are estimated to look down on him.

But if the imperial court relaxes the astronomical ban by compiling the calendar, then there will definitely be many high-end talents gathered in the capital! Even if some of them don't look down on him, they will definitely find some like-minded people!

So, he immediately responded angrily: "Your Majesty, what Chief Yue said is extremely true, and the minister seconded it!" ”

When the emperor saw that Yue Shanchang heard this, a trace of obvious discoloration flashed on his face, and then he quickly lowered his head slightly as if he was hiding, and he secretly said to himself - Zhang Shou, this kid is a teacher of Ge Yong, and his thoughts are naturally different from ordinary people.

And...... I'm actually waiting for you!

The Son of Heaven, who had a smile on the corner of his mouth, happily praised it: "Yue Qing's words are so good, so let's do it." Come to the cabinet, go to the cabinet to pass the order, before because of the lack of talent in the Qin Tianjian test, the progress of the four seas test is slow, and now because of Yue Qing's advice, we should look at the world to gather talents who are proficient in arithmetic. In order to recruit real talents, please ask Mrs. Ge and Qi Chu to solve the problem, and those who are interested can solve the problem in the local government, and then send the bus to the capital! ”

At this moment, it is difficult to use any words to describe Yue Shanchang's mood. He only felt that he had always thought he had behaved decently before, but he was played by the emperor and Zhang Shou!

But at this time, in the face of the calm and relaxed Son of Heaven, the elated Four Princes, and the happy Zhang Shou, he could no longer object, so he could only sulk in his heart. At this moment, he heard the fourth prince suddenly ask: "Father, I heard that when the third brother and I applied for the Jiuzhang Hall before, there were students from Zhaoming Academy who questioned the third brother, and then Yue Shanchang expelled people from the door wall?" ”

Zhang Shou remembered that he had already informed the emperor of the matter of taking Fang Qing in, and the emperor had no intention of pursuing it at all, but he didn't expect that the fourth prince would suddenly come out and say it. This little bear kid actually holds a grudge like this?

As he was thinking so, he saw the fourth prince sly smile: "If the son does not teach, the father's fault, the teaching is not strict, and the teacher is lazy." Yue Shan Changjiao expelled people from the door wall without teaching, isn't it a bit too harsh? ”
