Zhu Pingjin got the accurate news from Mr. Tian, and the next morning he brought a full set of honor guards and drove to the school. Enabling this set of honor guards, which are not often used, and swaggering out for the first time after the death of the king of Shu, Zhu Pingjin certainly had a purpose:

First, he gave Mr. Asheda face in the literati circle, let him know his kindness, and customize a large group of young reserve cadres in the direction expected by Zhu Pingjian;

Second, it is also a declaration to the people of the whole city that the Shu Wangfu is still the source of Shu's literary style, and it is the most respectful of teachers and education;

Thirdly, for the sake of an ordinary teacher, the prince personally mobilized the people to invite, at least to tell the whole Shu that as long as the scholars get the attention of the Shu Palace, they will soar overnight. Scholars do things for the Shu Palace, and there is no future and money. Therefore, it can play a role in the propaganda of the golden city bones and prepare for public opinion for the upcoming palace draft competition.

Of course, the biggest benefit of this trip belongs to Zhu Pingjin himself - this will undoubtedly help to shape Zhu Pingjian's social image in Shu. Looking at the people who fell down on the streets, Zhu Pingjin optimistically estimated that perhaps the day after tomorrow, the story of the prince personally inviting students from poor families to the school to tell the scriptures would spread through Sun Hong's pen and spread among all strata of the provincial capital.

Four big white horses with royal grace and luxury, slowly pulled the elephant chariot, passed through the Duanli Gate, Yumen, and Lingxing Gate in turn, turned right at the Huangcheng Dam, and entered the street to the west.

The weather in June is getting hotter, and in the morning, the sun is hot. Although the canopy on the chariot can provide a small shade for Zhu Pingjian, the climate of the basin is like a cauldron, and everything is stuffy in it and cooked, without a trace of cool breeze. The curtains on the front and back of the elephant are all rolled up, so that the world can no longer enjoy air conditioning. But in this way, he is exposed to the public eye.

Many of the people on the street have changed into short-sleeved clothes. But the identity of the prince determines that Zhu Pingjin is a public figure, and he must not have the slightest disheveled clothes, let alone strip his sleeves. What you gain will lose something, Zhu Pingjin's rich life experience makes him know this. He silently endured the sweat soaking, and followed the creaking sound on the wheel hub, and walked in the direction of the school.

If Mr. wants to bring the students to apologize, there must be a place where everyone gathers, and the school is just on the road from Mr. Tian's house to the palace. Zhu Pingjin patted his head and guessed that this school was the place where teachers and students gathered, so he led people straight to the school. When the car arrived at the entrance of the alley, the honor guard stopped and asked Shizi to get out of the car. Wei Chen brought the spare horses, Zhu Pingjin jumped up, and his vision suddenly widened a lot, and even the cool breeze in the air seemed to be a lot more.

"Where is the Academy? The head leads the way. Zhu Pingjin shouted to Qin Yi and brushed his face with his sleeve.

Qin Yi agreed, and quickly ran to the front, and Zhu Pingjin beat his horse to follow. But when he ran to the door of the school, Zhu Pingjin was dumbfounded: I saw that the school was lush with forests and bamboos, the firewood door was closed, and the surroundings were silent, how could there be any traces of students gathering?

Going to the school was the result of Zhu Pingjin patting his head, and Zhu Pingjin was not good at blaming Qin for no reason. He called Qin Yi and told him to look at the surrounding neighborhood and open the door, and ask where Mr. Tian was. Qin Yi was afraid of Zhu Pingjin's punishment, and when he heard the order, he hurriedly took a few eunuchs and went away.

Cheng Xiangfeng got off the horse and said: "Son, if what Father-in-law Qin said is true, the minister thinks that Mr. Natian must have taken the students and has gone to the palace to post it." ”

Zhu Pingjinqi said: "Why is Mr. Cheng so sure? ”

Cheng Xiangfeng said with a smile: "The prince of the world, please think about it, how can anyone who invites a guilty person to lie down in the hall, but wants the prince to come and invite him personally?" In this way, it is not in line with etiquette! ”

"Could it be that we went out too much, and they knew in advance, and they went to submit a letter in front of the palace of the king?" Zhu Pingjin asked.

"It's hard to say." Cheng Xiangfeng was not sure. He was sure that if he made a mistake in judgment, wouldn't he be disgraced? Besides, he is not sure how Zhu Pingjin views this matter. If Zhu Pingjian's view is negative, wouldn't he have responded to the old saying that literati are light, and became a villain who likes to make small reports?

"This son of the world has been invited three times, but he has inadvertently missed it, which is a big pity! Now that we're here, let's leave a few words! Even if Mr. Tian didn't go to the palace to submit his letter, he would see it when he came back. I'm annoying Mr. Zhu Pingjin sighed and said to Cheng Xiangfeng.

Three times! The big secret Cheng Xiangfeng immediately understood and immediately grasped the key point. This is the son of the world to leave a good story among the people! He went to the sack and fetched pen and ink, and began to prepare for the manuscript in his belly.

"Mr. Cheng must not be jealous!" Zhu Pingjin reminded softly. blatantly wrote about the three visits to the thatched house, didn't that clearly tell the people of the world that he Zhu Pingjin intended to divide Shu Han and divide the world into three parts?

"Minister, thank you, the prince of the world!"

"Mr. Xian's famous book Jincheng, three empty sentimental. Looking back at the place where the whip stopped, the school was full of lush greenery (Note 1). ”

The poem is written on the left side of the chai gate of the school. The one-color Zhao Tixing book is dignified and elegant, old and spicy. In the world of calligraphy and painting, it is often said that paintings are afraid of hanging up, and words are afraid of standing up. Zhu Pingjin doesn't have the ability of Cheng Xiangfeng to pay for himself.

"Transactions are always spiraling. There is promotion and abandonment, there is abandonment and abandonment, and there is symbiosis. It is both a return to the beginning of the end and a simple repetition of the beginning. Starting point two is an upgraded version of starting point one, but when it comes to three, it is an enhanced version of one and two! Zhu Pingjin read the poem and nodded, but inexplicably threw out a string of philosophical words.

Shizi didn't applaud his improvisation loudly, which made Cheng Xiangfeng very disappointed. However, the prince's too esoteric language also temporarily made Cheng Xiangfeng abandon his worldly fame. While chewing on the deep taste of his words, he sighed in his heart:

The heart of the son of the world is unfathomable!

The study of the son of the world, the study of heaven and man!

Zhu Pingjin and his entourage looked for someone to no avail, so they had to go home. This time, he learned the lesson of patting his head and making decisions, and sent Qin descendants back to the palace in advance to investigate, and if he saw Mr. Tian, he would first announce the order to stay guests.

At this time, outside the duty room at the gate of Zunyi Gate at the west gate of the palace, Tian Qian was leading a group of his students to wait for the prince to be summoned under the scorching sun.

The thin boy who fought yesterday wiped his sweat, carefully rubbed it next to Mr., and quietly looked at Mr.'s face, and then asked: "Sir, do you think the prince will hate us?" It's been so long since we submitted the book, why hasn't there been any movement in it? ”

"Yunxiao, you have many advantages, especially perseverance in the face of trouble. But there is just one problem, impetuous! The floater is superficial and difficult to enter the nature; Those who are dry are restless, eager for success and quick profit. If you want to succeed in the future, you must quit your own faults. There are no distractions, and you can do things quietly. Only by being righteous can you be right, only by being righteous can you be right, only by being righteous, and then by being right, you can be righteous, and then you can be righteous! Have you memorized them? ”

Mr. Tian's feather fan shook and shook out a big reason. Shi Yunxiao didn't get any answers, and had to bow down with many classmates to be taught.

Huya glanced at the thin Shi Yunxiao, stepped forward and said, "Sir, the student thinks that since the prince knows that we are coming to ask for sin, he must go to the school to ask for it." With Mr.'s talent in both civil and military affairs, why should Mr. bend down to ask for a meeting? I want to think that when Nanyang Zhuge Kongming, Emperor Zhaolie of the Han Dynasty (Liu Bei's name) looked at the thatched house three times, and still lay on the bamboo couch, chanting: Who will realize the big dream first? I know it. ......" This student with big tiger teeth is named Ma Fengqi. He usually prides himself on being Mr.'s most proud protégé, and Tiangang, who ranks second only to Luo Jingyun among his classmates. But there is one person who disagrees with him, that is, Shi Yunxiao, who is thin and small.

"Feng Qi! This time and that time! At that time, the ancestor was in trouble, and he was less than a hundred, and the soldiers were not more than a thousand, so he sent people under the fence and committed himself to Xinye. Zhuge family Nanyang Shi clan, friends with famous people all over the world. If the first lord doesn't invite him, does he want Mr. Wolong to come to the door to ask for a meeting? Now that it is difficult for a teacher to fall into a scholar's place, it is still difficult to eat and drink, why is he proud of the palace? Besides, aren't you waiting to join the caravan? Since you want to be a courtier, you should lower your body and come to the door to meet the Lord. ”

"That gentleman shouldn't have refused Miss Luo's kindness yesterday." The tall man Zhang Sheng came out and said angrily.

Mr. Tian was not angry, he smiled and said: "I left Miss Luo for the sake of my teacher's anger, I just didn't want to meet the prince through Miss Luo." Jingyun is your classmate and my student, and Miss Luo is Jingyun's eldest sister! If the prince of the world uses you in front of Miss Luo, then haven't we become a party of the wife's family? As soon as the party is formed, then we will not be able to wash off this mark for the rest of our lives! For the sake of the teacher, it is not only for Jingyun, but also for the future. Do you know that you are working hard for your teacher? ”

"The student is waiting for Mr. Wait!" More than thirty and a half boys bowed and saluted together, and behaved politely, which was like a double heaven with the lawless bear children of yesterday.

"You have joined the caravan, and with Jingyunzhi as a person, you will definitely see Fuer and others. With Miss Luo's fierce temperament, she will marry into the palace in the future, and she will not be a loser! It's just that he joined the caravan, and he has to fight on the battlefield on his own in the future, and he can't rely on Jingyun's classmates to show off everywhere. Yun Xiao is right, even Jingyun's fame was fought out on the battlefield with a knife and a shot. Merit must be rewarded, there must be punishment, do not talk about merit and demerit with relatives, this is the right way for the Lord of the Ming Dynasty! When you have a settlement, you will be relieved of your heart as a teacher......"

"The students are gone, won't Mr. come with us to the palace to seek work?" The bright boy Huang Zhibi asked anxiously.

"Zhibi, being a teacher is not a god who does not eat fireworks, but also has to dress and eat. Now that I am fighting for three dollars, I am of course willing to receive a generous amount of money and food for the teacher. It's just that your grandmother's eyes have been blind for several years, and there is no famous doctor in Shu to cure them. As a teacher, you have to look for doctors and medicines, how to work for the palace? This is filial piety! Mr. Tian finally stopped shaking the fan, looking very lonely and melancholy.

"Sir, I heard that the good doctors in the palace are all imperial doctors who have been put down from the Jingshitai Hospital. Why don't we ask the Son of the world for medicine? Maybe Mrs. Tai's eyes can be cured? The little fat man Yuan Yang said.

"Well, it's good luck to bump into it." Mr. Tian sighed, and said to himself, "It's not too young to be a teacher, but it's a pity that I haven't achieved anything so far, so I'm really ashamed to kill me!" ”

The sun was getting higher and higher, and it was nearly noon, but there was no news in the palace. The young students were already scorched by the scorching sun, and a few of them were even quietly asking Mr. for leave to go home. At this time, the side door of Zunyi Gate opened a crack without warning. A middle-aged eunuch sweating profusely came out, and when he saw Mr. Tian and the group of boys, it was like seeing the ancestors of the ancestors, and shouted from afar:

"Mr. Tian, I've found you! Our family ran from the palace to the school, and from the school to the carrier door, but I didn't expect you to be in Zunyi Gate! ”

After saying that, his feet were weak, and he sat on the hot ground.
