Chapter 151: The Prime Minister's Wrath
Zhang Yizhi!!
As soon as the words fell, the face of the long-bearded old man changed drastically.
The middle-aged scholar missed a punch and hit a box that suddenly appeared, but he was not stunned at all, stared at Zhang Yizhi, and said, "I also said that I am the saint today." Where did the old puppet come from, even the name of the prime minister dares to pretend, and tomorrow I will cut off your head and feed it to the dogs. ”
Zhang Yizhi didn't say a word, shook his hand, and directly threw the jade pendant in his hand.
The long-bearded scholar stretched out his hand to take it, and his body shook suddenly, and his eyes widened to the extreme. "Prime Minister......"
His legs went limp, and he fell to his knees with a thud.
A few people next to him were shocked, but they quickly realized what was happening, their faces were full of horror, and they also fell to their knees.
The scholar's face was blue and red just now, but he didn't know what to do.
"What's your name?" Zhang Yizhi carried his hands behind his back, and at this time he had regained his bearing, and his voice was full of anger.
"The right army of grass people Liang, I don't know that the adults are coming, I really damn it!" The long-bearded scholar kept kowtowing.
"Get up!" Zhang Yizhi shouted angrily, and he quickly got up.
"Let me ask you, how many students are there in this academy now?" Zhang Yizhi said loudly.
"There are one hundred and thirty-two in total, six are teachers, and six are miscellaneous servants...... "The long-bearded scholar reported the information 1510.
"Where are the students from?" Zhang Yizhi asked in a deep voice.
Mr. Long Beard's body suddenly trembled, and he said in a trembling voice: "Master Zhang, the academy is full of the most qualified students in the entire Nanlin, and they are also the students who are most promising to serve the country. ”
"Do you know what my original intention was in setting up this Mingzhi Academy?" Zhang Yizhi continued to ask.
Mr. Longbeard bowed his head and muttered that he did not dare to answer.
Zhang Yizhi shouted: "You think I'll never come back to take a look, right? ”
"Master Zhang, we really didn't know you were coming!" Mr. Longbeard was already weeping.
"What if you know?" Zhang Yizhi asked. "Do you know that I am coming, so that you can prepare in advance and find some poor children to deal with me? Or do you know I'm coming, what are you going to do? ”
"Master Zhang, that's not what the grass people meant. Although I am nominally the head of the college, I don't have any rights. Who can come in to study every year, how to arrange it, and how can I, a small person who doesn't even have an official position, decide? The long-bearded scholar said bitterly.
"Then who is in charge of this academy now?" Zhang Yizhi asked.
Mr. Long Beard hurriedly surrendered his hand: "Of course, Lord Zhizhou has the final say." Lord Zhizhou also wants to make Mingzhi Academy a first-class institution in the Chinese Dynasty as much as possible, with good intentions. ”
"Good intentions! Indeed, you have good intentions. The annual tuition fee of this college is not low, right? The old man supplied the academy with more than 10,000 taels of silver a year, and he was even more reluctant to use the silk and satin, more than half of which was sent here, as well as a hundred stone of rice per month...... Not to mention supporting a hundred students, even five hundred is more than enough! For decades, can any of this money benefit Dunyi's children according to the old man's wishes? ”
"My lord, we really don't know any of this." Mr. Nagabeard said.
He paused, plucked up his courage, and said, "Your Excellency, please calm your anger, we who teach have no way of knowing what the specific situation is. We're just here to earn some money. If you have any questions, you can ask them to the Governor. ”
Zhang Yizhi quickly realized that if Mingzhi Academy was used from the beginning, then all the things he sent over would not be able to get here at all, let alone that these teaching gentlemen would be able to understand the inside story.
"Okay, I'll just assume that you don't know the specifics. But you are also responsible for this. You go and fetch me the Zhizhou in the south, and I will confront him face to face. Zhang Yizhi let out a long breath and made up his mind.
"My lord, I'll arrange it!" The long-bearded elder couldn't wait to leave the academy.
The few teaching gentlemen next to him seemed to have made a mistake, and they bowed their heads one by one and did not dare to speak.
I don't know how long it took for the sound of the carriage to sound, followed by countless crisp footsteps.
Lu Gong urged to listen to the wind and know his intentions, and soon felt that a lot of carriages and horses were coming at the door, and even the escorts were dispatched.
A middle-aged man in a crimson official robe hurriedly rushed in, repeating in his mouth: "Master Zhang, the lower official should die, the lower official should die!" ”
Almost a few breaths later, more than a dozen people in official robes came down from the carriage outside, both civil and military.
It can be seen from the patterns on the official robes that these are the top ones in the south.
"Lord Zhizhou?" Zhang Yizhi was already sitting on the Taishi chair, looking at Lord Zhizhou who was moving the people, and his voice was slightly deep.
"Xiaguan Liu Xiangqing pays a visit to the prime minister." The middle-aged man bowed.
"Meet the Prime Minister!" In the back, more than a dozen officials saluted at the same time.
Zhang Yizhi's chest rose and fell slightly, and he waved his hand and said: "The old man resigned and returned to his hometown, and he is no longer the prime minister of the dynasty." Adults don't have to be so polite. This time, Lord Liu was asked to come, just for this Mingzhi Academy. The old man has some questions that he wants to discuss with adults. ”
"Lord Zhang, please say, the lower officials know everything!" Liu Xiangqing said loudly.
"First, on the issue of enrollment at Mingzhi Academy. I want to hear about the opinions of adults! "The Way of Righteousness.
Liu Xiangqing arched his hand and said loudly: "Adults don't know. After the adults entrusted it back then, the Lord Zhizhou in the south, who is now Uncle Guo, is indeed as you entrusted, taking in the poor children of Dunyi. It's just that later, several Zhizhou have found that these poor children in Dunyi are not focused on studying at all, because of family reasons, they are more likely to drop out of school early and choose a livelihood that can support their families. ”
Zhizhou sighed, and then continued: "Later, in order to ensure the source of students in the academy, we had to recruit some real reading materials in Nanlin. When the lower official came here eight years ago, there were almost no Dunyi children in it. Coupled with the drought in the past three years, it is not easy for Dunyi to find a school-age child. ”
Listening to his quibbles, Zhang Yizhi laughed. "I'm afraid Lord Zhizhou doesn't know, I've already done some research before I come in, right? The tuition fee of hundreds of taels of silver a year is only recruited to the young master of the official and noble mansion, and if you have money, you may not be able to come in and study. It can't be that the people have wronged you, right? Didn't Lord Zhizhou think that by moving out the current Uncle Guo, he would be able to shut up the old man? ”
"Your Excellency! That's absolutely nothing. Over the years, Mingzhi Academy has worked hard to fulfill the trust of adults. "Zhizhou urgent.
Zhang Yizhi saw that he was still so unrepentant, and shook his head helplessly: "The second question, what about the details of the use of the old man's property over the past few decades?" And the breakdown of the expenses of this Mingzhi Academy, there should always be one, right? ”
"Of course there is! It's just that the lower official was in a hurry and forgot to bring it. "Zhizhou is humane.
"Then please send someone back to get it." The Way of Righteousness.
Lord Zhizhou's face moved slightly: "My lord, if it's late today, it's better to wait for tomorrow." Tomorrow, the lower officials will personally bring all the account books. ”
"I just want to watch it tonight!" Zhang Yizhi knew very well in his heart, give them one night, and they can make anything for you.
"That can only be said that there is nothing Xia Guan can do!" Zhizhou suddenly shook his head and sighed.
"What do you mean?" Zhang Yizhi's face changed slightly.
