Early the next morning.

Guo An first went to the Yan Palace and met with Princess Yan.

Subsequently, he was caught by Zhu Fu and nagged for more than half an hour.

It was in the name of going to the academy that he had something important to do, so he escaped from Zhu Fu's clutches.

……

As soon as he walked into the academy, Guo An was shocked again.

"When did this street outside the academy become so bustling?"

The street left outside his academy would already be crowded with people. On both sides of the street, there are various stalls.

On top of that, outside of this street, another street has risen at some point.

On both sides, there are also various stalls.

Similarly, there is no shortage of people.

Food, candy man, acrobatics, snacks, gold, silver and jewelry, rice shop, car shop, cloth, clothing shop, toys...... There are all kinds of shops, giving him a feeling of going to the diagonal street next to Haizi Wharf in Beiping Mansion.

The driver who drove for Guo An hurriedly explained: "Back to Guo Changshi, since Young Master Huang and Young Master Zheng were admitted to the list and Tanhua, there have been more students who have come to the academy to study.

Even, many students are not able to study at the college. But I like the floors of the academy, so I stayed in Beiping Mansion and didn't leave! ”

In less than half a month, the street outside the academy was already crowded. When the princess heard this, she asked the people of the Gongzheng Institute to build another street outside. ”

"I see."

Guo An nodded slightly, "The princess is wise." ”

He can also understand these scholars who are not leaving.

Among scholars, they pay attention to their protégés.

And around the academy is the entire Beiping Mansion, and even the entire high-level circle in the north.

There are so many great Confucians in the academy, and there are so many scholars who are expected to be admitted to the Jinshi. As long as they meet a few times, eat a few times, and visit each other in the future, they can rely on this to build a relationship.

If you have a lot of luck, it's even more amazing......

Then, without waiting for the coachman to reply, he said again: "The streets are so congested, the carriage does not need to go in, the official can go in by himself!" ”

"Yes, Guo Changshi!"

The coachman answered, waited until Guo An got out of the car, and walked into the street with a curious face, then found a spacious place by himself and rested.

"Master, these two streets are so prosperous, and they are all scholars, how much money can they make on this day?"

Looking at the endless flow of people on the street, Guo Erniu couldn't help but ask curiously.

Around, several scholars passing by looked at Guo An and Guo Erniu with strange expressions.

Guo An's face was full of disdain, "Vulgar! This is the academy, the land of books, how can it be defiled with copper-smelling things? ”

"But ......"

Guo Erniu wanted to say something, but Guo An had already quickened his pace and walked forward.

"Okay, I'm here for something important, don't be verbose!"

"Yes, sir......"

……

A quarter of an hour later.

In the innermost study room of the college.

Monk Daoyan was dressed in a gray monk's robe, sitting behind the tea table, and beside him, there was an exquisite stove, and the copper kettle on the stove was bubbling boiling boiling water.

As Guo An approached, Dao Yan stood up and saluted.

"Guo Changshi came to the cold house, the monk is polite!"

Guo An glanced at the teacup on the table and raised his eyebrows.

Then, he sat down directly.

"The mage knew that the official was coming?"

"Amitabha."

A trace of helplessness flashed in Monk Daoyan's eyes, "The princes of the north are too anxious!" ”

"Huh?"

Guo An's brows furrowed, "What does this mean, Master?" ”

"Guo Changshi doesn't know?"

Dao Yan glanced at Guo An with some surprise, and then said to himself: "A few days ago, a few people from several southern families who came to look for monks to catch up with the old family were returning by boat, and when they were returning by boat, the boat suddenly leaked and sank in the canal.

On the entire ship, including the boatman, there were dozens of people, and none of them survived! ”

"This ......"

Guo An's face couldn't help but be slightly shocked, and he hurriedly asked, "Dare to ask the mage, is there an official on the ship?" ”

"Not really!"

Dao Yan shook his head slightly.

Guo An breathed a sigh of relief and looked sad.

"Fire and water are ruthless, it's a pity for those people from the south!"

"Amitabha."

Dao Yan thought to himself.

Guo An asked again: "I don't know, can the government send someone to investigate the autopsy?" ”

Dao Yan replied: "Falling into the water and dying, this is a natural disaster!" ”

Guo An said with a sincere face: "There are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and Master Dao Yan doesn't have to be too sad!" ”

Dao Yan was pleased: "Guo Changshi's house is kind-hearted, which is the blessing of the people of the world!" ”

Guo An was a little curious: "I don't know why the mage said this?" ”

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Dao Yan's mouth, "Since Guo Changshi has personally come to find the monk, it proves that the monk should not worry about his life!" ”

Guo An's eyes widened suddenly, and his face was full of surprise.

"What do you mean, Mage? The master is not only the host of Daqingshou Temple, but also the director of the academy, and is also deeply trusted by His Royal Highness King Yan, who dares to have ill intentions towards the master? ”

Dao Yan's face remained unchanged, but he picked up the teapot on the side, slowly brewed two cups of tea, and put one in front of Guo An.

"Guo Changshi, please drink tea!"

"Thank you, Mage!"

Guo An hurriedly thanked.

Dao Yan only smiled faintly, "The monk is just a monk, and he has no intention of participating in the dispute between the north and the south!" ”

"This official knows the temperament of the mage."

Guo An nodded slightly.

Monk Daoyan also nodded, and asked again: "I don't know if Guo Changshi wants to expand the academy at the request of the public?" ”

Guo An shook his head, "The students cultivated by the academy are enough for His Highness, and there is no need to expand!" ”

"In this way, the monk is relieved!"

"What do you mean, Mage?" Guo An was a little puzzled.

Dao Yan said: "Guo Changshi is a person of great wisdom, and what he does is the same as that of a monk. ”

"How can this official and the mage be the same? ……”

As he spoke, Guo An was stunned and shuddered.

"The mage doesn't want to make fun of the official, the official's family has both children and a wife alive, how can he let go of the red dust and follow the mage into the empty door?"

Daoyan: "......"

"I also ask the master to be a good secretary of the academy, and cultivate more talents for His Royal Highness King Yan.

The official had just returned from Goryeo and had a lot of business to do, so he took his leave. ”

With that, Guo An had already gotten up and walked out.

Daoyan: "......"

The speed was so fast, by the time Dao Yan reacted, Guo An had already walked out of the door of the study and was nowhere to be seen.

"Amitabha!"

After the tea table, a smile gradually appeared in Dao Yan's eyes.

"This is the way of heaven, how can mortals escape? That you Guo An is a great sage, and you are not subconsciously preparing? ”

……

"Mad Monk!"

After he couldn't see Monk Daoyan's study, Guo An breathed a sigh of relief.

"Master, what's wrong?"

Guo Erniu looked panicked.

"It's fine!"

Guo An waved his hand, "Let's go, go home." ”

"Yes, sir!"

Guo Erniu also misses his fat daughter-in-law very much.

Guo Mansion.

Seeing Guo An coming back so soon, Guo's father, Liu Huiyuan and others were all stunned.

"Uncle Yue, father, that Daoyan has already said that he will never get involved in the affairs of the North and South Shilin!"

"That's it!"

Father Guo nodded with satisfaction.

As for Liu Huiyuan, he was still a little skeptical, "Ning Yi, is that Dao Yan credible?" ”

Guo An couldn't help frowning and thinking for a moment, then nodded affirmatively, "Don't worry, that Dao Yanzhi is not above such mundane things as the Shilin dispute!" ”

"And where is his ambition?"

Liu Huiyuan asked.

Guo An was stunned for a moment, and then said with a straight face: "Please forgive my father-in-law, I don't want to say much about this matter." However, at most, ten years, the father-in-law will know. ”

"The old man will wait and see!"

Liu Huiyuan nodded slightly.

Then, the matter of Dao Yan passed like this.

As for the drowned southern gentry, Guo An didn't ask too much.

Anyway, this kind of thing, even if Jinyiwei comes down, it is estimated that nothing can be found.

And, no matter what, it doesn't involve him.

After a little more small talk.

Guo An walked to the back house.

The more children tease, the smarter they get!

Guo An rested in the house for three days in a row, but no one came to disturb him.

As for the drowning of the southern gentry, it did not cause any commotion in Beiping Mansion.

But.

Wait until Guo An starts to go to the Yan Palace to be on duty.

Huang Yuanwai, Zheng Yuanwai...... A large number of gentry came directly to them with a large number of gifts.

"I waited for this time to thank Guo Changshi for his great kindness!"

"Exactly, if I want my ancestors to study for many years, the highest is only to get famous. Unexpectedly, this time, Guo Changshi could let me and other children in my family be directly admitted to Jinshi! ”

"Even, you can be admitted to Huiyuan, and then be admitted to the list and explore the flowers......"

"Guo Changshi is so kind to the gentry of Beiping Mansion such as me, we can't repay it. In the future, Guo Changshi will never say anything if he has any orders! ”

“……”

"It's okay, let me take the Beiping Mansion Juzi to take a few more jinshi, and there is some light under His Royal Highness King Yan!"

Guo An waved his hand indifferently, "It's just a trivial matter, you don't need to take it to heart like this!" ”

All the gentry couldn't help but be speechless.

A gentry was a little honest, and said with a smile on his face: "Guo Changshi is polite, just a small class, in a few months, you can let some mediocre talents be admitted to the Huiyuan, and even the second in the palace examination.

If it's a small thing, then nothing is a big deal in the world. ”

"Yes!"

Guo An was even more sincere than the big-bellied and fat-faced gentry, and said with a serious face: "It's a big deal for us to build such a academy in Beiping Mansion!"

Or, the cement we invented has made the entire Beiping Mansion have several more straight and spacious roads, and the construction of Zhangjiawan Wharf is also a big deal.

For example, it is also important to breed rice that can increase the yield by 20%.

It is even more important to assist His Royal Highness King Yan to capture Goryeo, expand the territory for the Ming Dynasty, and establish the Yan Kingdom in Goryeo......

Isn't this a big thing bigger than a role model? ”

The gentry opened their mouths, these things are indeed big things.

However, in their hearts, these are still not as good as the titles of the children in the family on the gold list, and they have won the name of the list and the fame of exploring flowers.

Otherwise, as soon as the words of the great Confucian scholars in the academy came out, some gentry directly united and caused an accident on the canal.

Moreover, those high-ranking officials in Beiping Mansion did not dare to interfere at will.

Fame is the lifeblood of these gentry, and it is the foundation of their family's prosperity.

In particular, after being persecuted by the Yuan Dynasty, the northern Shilin has been trampled under the feet of the southern Shilin, and there is no hope of turning over.

I didn't expect Guo An to come up with such a clever plan!

This will, in the hearts of these gentry in Beiping Mansion, the matter of the small classroom of the academy is already greater than everything.

"Okay, in the future, if the Yanwang Mansion or the official needs your help, the official will invite you to come to the meeting!"

As he spoke, Guo An picked up the teacup by himself.

Seeing this, the gentry could only get up and say goodbye helplessly.
