Chapter 348: Unintentional Willow Insertion

In the afternoon, Zhu Hao accompanied Tang Yin, Zhang Zuo and others to the city gate to greet Zhang Jingming, the left chief of Xingwangfu.

This is an old man who looks thin and thin, his appearance is not good, giving people a feeling of wilting that he can't open his eyes, or in recent years, Zhang Jingming has been disciplined, less meaty, and he is close to the age of sixties, and he probably doesn't have so much ambition and ambition in the officialdom, so the spirit of the whole person is not good.

Unlike Yuan Zonggao, who moved his family to Anlu, Zhang Jingming came alone this time, except for a few domestic servants and guards who went to greet the escort, his wife and children were not brought with him.

"Zhang Changshi's spirit is no less than back then."

Zhang Zuo greeted him warmly, and at a glance, he knew that he had a good relationship with Zhang Jingming.

"This is a person from Liuzhou, Guangxi, who has served as a teacher for two years." Zhang Jingming was introduced.

The person who came saluted Zhang Zuo respectfully, and when he learned from Zhang Zuo's mouth that the little old man standing next to him who looked slightly younger than him was Tang Yin, he couldn't help but be surprised.

I thought that my qualifications were very powerful, but before I entered the palace, I found that the famous Tang Bohu was teaching in the palace, which was worth it?

"This is Zhu Hao, the son of the Zhu family of the local Jinyi Wei Qianhu, his father was martyred for the pacification of the Central Plains, and I am loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and now I have passed the government examination and won the county case, it is expected to ...... You can go to school in the coming year. ”

Zhang Zuo smiled and made a further introduction.

Chu Yu nodded slightly at Zhu Hao.

Although it is strange that a child who looks so young can be admitted to the head of the county, it is guessed that it may be related to the secret operation of the Xingwang Mansion, but after all, he is from a teaching background, and the students he usually sees are in the sea, and he naturally has to show the majesty of the division commander in front of the students.

Zhu Hao carefully observed Chu Yu.

It's very ordinary, judging from his kind eyebrows and kind eyes, there are not many murderous spirits that no one can enter, maybe he is not as rigorous as Fan Yikuan, but he doesn't know the details of how he didn't have a deep friendship, and even if he thinks about it, even if this person's talent may not be very strong, at least he is a great Confucian, and he can't be despised for it.

As far as Zhu Hao knows, there is really such a person as Chu Yu in history.

According to the 29th year of Qianlong, Wang Jin, the editor of the Hanlin Academy and the observer of Youjiang Road in Guangxi, wrote and revised the "Liuzhou Mansion Chronicles": "Chu Yu, a native of Liucheng, a native of Chenghua Gengzi. For the history of the rejuvenating king's mansion, he kept his duties high, returned to the city after his term of office, and did not re-appoint. Sejong entered the throne and failed to go repeatedly. ”

Now Zhu Hao finally knows that this local chronicle is obviously false.

The official position of the chief of the palace is the fifth grade, and he cannot be held if he is not a jinshi, and the chief of the palace is between the Beijing official and the local official, and the Beijing official is transferred to the third to fifth level, and the official of the royal palace is basically promoted to the second to fourth level.

Just like Yuan Zonggao, as the governor of the Zhengwupin Xing Palace, he served as the Jiangxi Inspector of Zhengsanpin, and was promoted to four levels in a row In addition to the usual practice, because he has served in the palace for nearly 20 years, there are factors in the promotion and not promotion after the assessment of the Ministry of Officials.

"Zhang Changshi, Yuan Changshi has something to do today, and he couldn't come to greet him in person, why don't we go back to the palace and talk about it in detail? After meeting the prince, I will wait for a good drink and not get drunk and return...... You don't know, today's palace is very lively, just like the New Year, haha. ”

Zhang Zuo was very enthusiastic.

In the eyes of outsiders, he is the kind of good old man who is easy to talk about everything, and he is not at all as scheming and greedy for money as he appears in private.

……

……

The group rode into the city in a horse-drawn carriage.

Zhu Hao and Tang Yin rode together.

Zhu Hao asked, "What do you think?" ”

Tang Yin shook his head: "It's nothing, whether it's Zhang Changshi or Chu Jiaoxi, it looks pretty good, but I don't know if there will be a gap in the future...... After all, I can teach the prince in the future, and I can save a lot. ”

"Hey, hey."

Zhu Hao couldn't stop laughing.

"You're not going to have any bad ideas again, are you? The palace has been tossed by you a lot, but you have better restrained yourself recently, don't be really kicked out of the palace in advance in the end. Studying in the Royal Palace...... It's better than if you're out there, and it's a good place to study with peace of mind. ”

Tang Yin is still teaching Zhu Hao.

But he also knew that this was for nothing.

The carriage arrived at the main gate of the palace.

Yuan Zonggao led people out of the palace to greet them, and the party greeted them politely for a long time.

After entering the palace, Lu Song, who came over, was responsible for beckoning the guards to open the way in front, and after welcoming Yuan Zonggao and others into the inner courtyard, Lu Song did not go in with Tang Yin, but stayed by Zhu Hao's side.

"Lu Dian, won't you go in and take a look?" Zhu Hao asked with a smile.

Lu Song shook his head: "My duty does not include entry...... Young Master Zhu, have you seen the Protestant Sect? How does it feel? ”

Zhu Hao didn't expect Lu Song to care so much about the new teacher in the palace, probably because the other party was his son's teacher, and the parents naturally wanted to know his true level as soon as possible.

Zhu Haobian flattened his mouth: "I don't see anything special, probably Confucianism looks like this." ”

Lu Song laughed when he heard this.

The two walked to the west courtyard together, and found that many of the palace guards and subordinates were preparing for the banquet set up on the day to celebrate Zhang Jingming's return to the palace.

"By the way, Lu Dianzhan, what happened to the land grabbing with Xiangwangfu?" Zhu Hao inquired.

Lu Song's face showed a touch of contempt that was not worth mentioning.

"The Xingwang Mansion is full of warriors, and the strength of the Xiangwang Mansion is not good, obviously just trying to make trouble, and the dispute over the fields and acres involves a clear knife and a gun...... Before we could do anything, they slipped away and never resurfaced. ”

Zhu Hao said: "I'm afraid that someone in the court will secretly instigate the Xiangwang Mansion to oppose the Xingwang Mansion and suddenly make trouble...... It's better to be more vigilant, if something really happens, the court will not be partial because the land is given by the saints. ”

Lu Song thought for a moment and nodded, "Remember." ”

……

……

Zhang Jingming's return to the palace did not make any big waves, and there seemed to be no sign of the new official taking office, which was even more low-key than Yuan Zonggao's return to the palace in the first year.

As for Chu Yu, the day after entering the palace, he went to the school house of the West Cross Courtyard to attend classes.

From the point of view of the quality of teaching...... It's quite average, almost at the same level as Sui Gongyan.

Not to mention Zhu Hao and Yuan Rulin, who had just returned to the palace to attend classes, even the children Zhu San and Zhu Si were drowsy when they listened.

When Fan Yikuan entered the palace, although he taught at a glance, fortunately, he was the kind of character who was cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and after establishing a friendship with Tang Yin, he got the lesson plan from Tang Yin and understood it thoroughly......

Now this Chu Yu is obviously an important person invited back by the head of the Xingwang Mansion to check and balance Tang Yin, and after coming to the palace, he was only ordered by King Xing and the two Changshi, and he didn't even have a polite communication with Tang Yin, expecting him to learn the teaching methods of Zhu Hao and Tang Yin, which is simply unrealistic.

"Mr. New is so boring, what kind of is he talking about? I've slept several times! ”

After school in the morning, Chu Yu left first.

Even if Zhu San is a "bad student" in the classroom, he can feel that the level of this new gentleman is quite average, and he can't help but make teases.

Zhu Si put away the books and grimaced: "Third sister, you can be content, it is difficult to invite such a gentleman outside...... Do you think anyone is like Mr. Tang and Zhu Hao, who can talk about the Four Books and Five Classics to the point where they are easy to understand? ”

Zhu San looked at Zhu Hao with a smile: "Then what kind of gentleman do you invite?" It's nice to just let this scoundrel teach us lessons. ”

"Hmm."

This time, Jing Hong next to him nodded in agreement.

In Jing Hong's view, the new gentleman simply doesn't know what to say, the gap between me and Zhu Hao is very big, learn from Zhu Hao and Tang Yin, I still have the opportunity to get close to his knowledge, if I have been listening to the new teacher to tell us about those things, it is estimated that my life will be over.

Zhu San said: "Little Fourth, you go and tell your father to replace this gentleman who is not of any level." ”

"Forget it."

Zhu Si avoided his face, "Mr. Chu was specially invited back by Mr. Yuan, and Mr. Zhang has also returned to the palace now, and I still want to live a stable life for a few days...... I don't want to get into trouble. ”

Now Zhu Sixue is smart.

If you go to exchange lessons with Zhu Youqi, or praise Zhu Hao and Tang Yin, Zhu Youqi will definitely tell Yuan Zonggao, and Yuan Zonggao will try every means to add homework and exam items to him, and "punish" him in the name of caring about his studies.

Even the young Zhu Si understood that it was not suitable to help Tang Yin and Zhu Hao now, so he had to follow Yuan Zonggao's meaning first......

Xingwangfu began to roll in.

Zhu Hao muttered, maybe it was because of the arrival of Tang Yin and I to break history, that the atmosphere in Xingwang's Mansion began to become bad.

……

……

It's October.

Chu Yu taught in the palace for nearly a month.

During this time, Chu Yu basically didn't ask about Zhu Hao and Yuan Rulin's schoolwork, it may be that Yuan Zonggao and Zhang Jingming explained to him that Zhu Hao and Yuan Rulin were two children who were going to take the college exam, and Zhu Hao's husband was still Tang Yin, Chu Yu didn't want to teach Zhu Hao knowledge, and was mistaken for thinking that he wanted to rob Tang Yin of his "high apprentice".

And he entered the palace just to teach the prince, plus his teaching belongs to the type of "Mr. to Mr. to speak, and students to sleep", only completing his own part of the teaching, and he doesn't even care if Zhu Si learns it or not.

It may also be that he is jealous of the identity of the prince of the palace, and it is good to teach this kind of child without being targeted, and the teaching is completely to deal with official business.

At this moment, Jiang Lun sent back the news from Jingshizhong.

The Royal Study.

Zhu Youqi specially summoned Yuan Zonggao, Zhang Jingming, Zhang Zuo, and Tang Yin, and even some subordinate officials of the palace were present to talk about the latest situation transmitted from the Beijing Division.

“…… That's the case, Aunt Jiang said, what we paid tribute to the palace, the hundred glass beads, are now regarded as rare treasures by the palace. His Majesty's close ministers, only those who are favored, will be rewarded with one or two, and the concubines and deacons in the inner palace are proud of the glass beads that can be rewarded by the emperor......"

Zhang Zuo conveyed the message in Jiang Lun's letter.

The people present looked at each other.

A month ago, when Zhu Hao took out a hundred marbles and said that he wanted to pay tribute, everyone felt that this was too child's play, and at that time, King Xing felt that it was a bit impossible to send only one jade Ruyi, so he sent the 100 marbles to the capital by the way.

Who knows this giveaway...... Jade Ruyi did not cause any waves, but it was marbles, which became the precious jewelry appreciated by the emperor, who to reason with?
