"Oh, did Zhang Chen really say that at that time?"

With this voice, the emperor, who had just returned to the Qianqing Palace after practicing his sword, couldn't hide the smile on his face at all. If it weren't for the fact that he had to maintain his image as the Son of Heaven just now, he would have wanted to laugh out loud. And after entering the Dongnuan Pavilion and sitting down, he gently tapped the handrail with his fingers and continued to listen to Chu Kuan's report.

But when Zhang Chen's side had made a lot of noise and listened to it, he stared at Chu Kuan thoughtfully: "You said it as if you had seen it in person, it was lifelike, could it be that you sent someone to keep an eye on Zhang Chen?" Or maybe they have eyeliner in those places? ”

Chu Kuan didn't expect that the emperor had just heard the joke and his eyebrows fluttered, but at this time, he suddenly asked about this stubble. He hurriedly and cautiously said: "Because the emperor handed over the Banshan Hall to Dr. Zhang, the slave maid was afraid that someone would interfere, so he had to be careful......

He racked his brains to downplay the matter, and explained a lot of words, but in the end, all he ushered in was a sneer from the Son of Heaven.

"You should know how taboo those people outside are against eunuchs, and how much they think the celebrant is an eyesore. I know your thoughts, and I know your little actions. I also know that when you are out and about, you are recruiting in my name. The reason why I never put it through is because many officials have decided that I ordered you to do it. ”

Seeing that Chu Kuan hurriedly lowered his hands and knelt down, not daring to make a sound, the emperor angrily stabbed people with his toes: "Do you need to fool me with this dead look?" Taizu, Taizong, Yingzong, and the Emperor...... I have a few sons of heaven who have made achievements, who has not done the work of supervising hundreds of officials? Who hasn't done anything about removing an official because of a secret report from a eunuch? I have only one request for you, don't deceive! ”

"Yes, yes, the slave obeys." Chu Kuan hurriedly agreed, but as a result, the emperor seemed to have opened the chatterbox, so he didn't stop there.

"Speaking of which, Taizu did countless things right back then, but there was one thing that failed to stick to the end. Since the imperial examination has been abolished for ten years, when he resumes the imperial examination before his abdication, it would be good if he turned the imperial examination into a jinshi and finally entered the national prison. ”

"I think that all those who are admitted to the Jinshi must study for three years in Guozijian and practice in the decentralized area for one year, and then decide how to confer officials after looking at the practice, so no matter what, they will not raise a bunch of straw bales who don't understand local affairs at all!"

The emperor, who had always admired Taizu the most, suddenly said this, and Chu Kuan couldn't help but be surprised. However, the emperor obviously didn't need his comfort or persuasion, and after a while, he lazily said: "Of course, the most hurtful thing is to establish the prince and the virtuous instead of the long...... Lichang is indeed bad in a thousand ways, because it is likely to be a waste to ascend the throne, but the dispute of Lixian is too big. ”

"The queen of the Yuan has no children, the six palaces have no owner, Emperor Taizong, as the fourth prince, was recognized by Emperor Taizu as virtuous and cultivated to ascend the throne, but then Emperor Taizu abdicated for two years and sailed to the sea.

As a result, Taizong died after six years on the throne, the sixteen-year-old eldest prince broke his leg inexplicably, the second prince died early, and the six-year-old Gaozong, the third prince, ascended the throne, and did not even have a mother. Hehe, Gaozong, the emperor is not very good, he still prefers his young son in his forties, and he set up Shizong before his death......"

"If it weren't for the abolition of Chang Liyu twice before and after, when the sons of Sejong were in dispute after his death, how could Yingzong suddenly succeed to the throne under the banner of revenge? It's a pity that Yingzong didn't embarrass the first two emperors because of his leg disease, and he is quite powerful, but he has been a vassal king for a long time, he is old, and his son is not very good, but after his death, there was a mess, and his father and emperor came again......"

"At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the crown prince almost didn't end well, and in the later period, the eunuch dictatorship and imperial power fell, not to mention the Yuan, in order to inherit the throne, he almost didn't play a dog's brain. Although every time we have a dispute, we have kept the Ordnance Bureau as soon as possible, but a very small number of those artillery guns and drawings still went to Beilu and Donghu, otherwise the frontier would not be quiet! ”

Although this was an old thing that Chu Kuan had known for a long time, and he had said something impassionedly in front of Zhang Shou, but at this time, he still felt a faint sweat on his back when he listened to it.

Because he wasn't sure, the emperor sighed here that Emperor Taizu should not put aside the rules of establishing a chief, whether he wanted to make the eldest prince the crown prince of the East Palace. What's more, the emperor lamented the dictatorship of eunuchs at the end of the Tang Dynasty, which was definitely not a good topic for him.

Fortunately, the emperor finally didn't continue to talk about the old thing, and after a moment of daze, he said lazily: "Forget it, don't talk about it, in short, you have to be careful when you do things and use people, in case something goes wrong, I may have to break my wrist in a strong man." And then there's ......"

Chu Kuan was not frightened by the emperor's strong man's broken wrist - in fact, this Son of Heaven had said this many times, but if he hadn't been tough enough at some point in his twenty-six years of reign, the celebrant and the outer office would have been impossible to exist.

When the Son of Heaven was still the young lord, I don't know how many people went one after another to uproot the eunuch, the only bridgehead outside the palace. As a result, the Queen Mother thought about making compromises, but the still childish Son of Heaven was angry in public.

Therefore, hearing that the emperor paused at this moment, he bowed his head respectfully and replied: "But please ask the emperor to command." ”

"Those things in the ancient and modern collection library, don't fight Zhang Shou's idea. He may have a lot of talent, but I still want to see it. Where the scholars can't go in, he does, and you know what it will lead to! ”

Chu Kuan was taken aback, and hurriedly swore that he would not dare to make a mistake, and at the same time told Zhang Shou what he had asked for last time when he came to the Celebrant Eunuch's Foreign Office, and finally said in a sneering voice: "Unexpectedly, he didn't use Master Ge to come forward later, but used the favor of King Yin of Shuntian Mansion to directly enroll students...... I thought that the bosses in the DPRK and Zhou Da Sicheng would oppose it......"

"Because I need to be appeased, Master Ge needs to be appeased, and the inscription of Emperor Taizu in the Nine Chapters Hall also needs to be appeased. In this way, of course, the benefits will fall on him, because since the founding of the country, there are certainly some talents, but there has never been such a young man as him. ”

The emperor smiled and waved his hand directly: "Send someone to look at the Taizu inscription plaque in the Jiuzhang Hall, I don't want anyone to fight that idea......"

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside: "Your Majesty, Miss Zhu sent a letter in." ”

"Yingying's letter?" The emperor only felt fresh and funny, "She usually comes to the palace as soon as she lifts her feet, and she actually sends a letter, what kind of medicine is this sold in the gourd?" Quick, bring it in! ”

With these words, Chu Kuan hurriedly got up and walked quickly to the door of Dongnuan Pavilion. After receiving the letter from a little eunuch, he looked down and saw that it was a letter sealed with a seal, he couldn't help but laugh secretly The little girl was quite cautious, and then quickly turned around and came to the emperor, and presented the letter with both hands.

The emperor pinched the thickness of the envelope, couldn't help but snort, and then tore the envelope very casually and took out the letters. But after reading the first one, he couldn't help but sigh.

It turned out that Zhu Ying said straight to the point that she was just a warm-hearted person who helped to transfer Zhang Shou's folds.

"And warm-hearted people...... This girl! The emperor smiled and shook his head, and was about to put Zhu Ying's letterhead aside, but he saw her still arrogantly making a request behind her - claiming that she would go to the Guozijian Banshan Hall at any time in the future, in the name of supernumerary superintendent to learn the imperial history, to see if those noble children had taken classes well.

"I think you care about Zhang Shou, the teacher, not the students!"

The dumbfounded Emperor casually moved the letterhead to the last one, and when he saw the words on the second piece of paper clearly, he couldn't help but look strange. Compared with Zhang Shou's profound arithmetic skills, which is very suitable for his spleen and stomach, this handwriting...... Alas, to put it nicely, it is not good...... It's terrible, you still have to practice!

However, in the end, he still put aside the slightest dissatisfaction, and looked at it intently, and when he found out that this was a lesson plan about Banshan Hall, and then asked him for something, he couldn't help laughing and scolding: "This kid actually came to ask me for someone, and if he didn't give it to people, he would give him the permission to hire an external teacher, and he also asked for a venue, money and food, it's just a ......."

He paused, and suddenly sighed thoughtfully: "Chu Kuan, take a pen and paper!" ”

An hour later, Zhang Shou, who was waiting for Zhu Ying to help him with the results of the book in the Zhao Guogong Mansion, waited for a reply from the palace—or a reply. When he opened the envelope and took out the letterhead, he couldn't help but laugh when he saw the bright red handwriting of the dragon flying and phoenix dancing.

"Do it, don't ask for money!"

Zhu Ying, who came over to read the letter, was immediately annoyed: "The emperor is so stingy!" ”

"It doesn't matter, in fact, I am asking for a price all over the sky, and I will pay back the money on the ground, what I really want is just the first three words of the emperor." Zhang Shou smiled and folded the letterhead solemnly, and then raised it lightly at Zhu Ying, "It's not an oracle that can not be recognized afterwards, but such a royal pen, the emperor is already very generous." ”

"Humph!" Zhu Ying thought in her heart, can this also be seen as the emperor's encouragement to her? She took a light breath and said with a smile: "The class will start the day after tomorrow, Ah Shou, what did you tell them in the first class?" ”

Zhang Shou hesitated slightly, and then smiled: "Since it's the first lesson, it's very simple, get to know each other, that's all." ”

Two princes plus a lot of noble children, this combination is easy to deal with! The right way can't work, let's make a crooked move!
