It was not until the third update that everyone dispersed. Zhou Xian set off to return home, and Gu Yanwu and Yu Chenglong chased after him.

Zhou Xian greeted him with a very relaxed expression. "Zhongqing, Beiming, are you here?"

Gu Yanwu and Yu Chenglong looked at each other and bowed to Zhou Xian and said, "Governor, we have something to discuss with you."

Zhou Xian nodded, "Then get on the horse, go to my place to discuss it."

Chen Feng ordered people to open the door and come forward to catch Zhou Xian's mount, "The second young master, Xia Wanchun, the Korean Crown Prince Li Xuan Shu and the Ryukyu King Wangdi Shangzhi have been waiting in your study for a long time. I originally told them to come to see you tomorrow, but they disagree and said there is something important to discuss with you."

Zhou Xian shook his head helplessly, "What can you do if a few kids have? You ask them to go to the lobby. In addition, let the kitchen cook some hot porridge, I'm hungry."

Chen Feng responded and left. But he suddenly remembered something and turned back and said, "By the way, the second young master, there is another thing. Song Yingxing and Zhao Yu have come to Jinan. Originally, Mr. Song wanted to wait for you to come back, but Zhao Yu forced him to go and call them when you come back."

Zhou Xian shook his head helplessly, "This Zhao Yu! Send someone to find them and let them come back as soon as possible."

He asked Gu Yanwu and Yu Chenglong to go to the lobby first. He went to the bedroom to change his comfortable clothes. Then he washed his face with cold water before returning to the lobby. He sat down and looked at Xia Wanchun and the others and said, "Is there anything wrong with you three coming to me?"

The three of them have little age difference, Xia Wanchun is the youngest, but he is the leader. Xia Wanchun stood up and said, "Supervisor, Xiao Leng will accompany a general to the martial arts hall tonight. They announced that they will join a group of students in the new army in the future, several will serve as the Qianzheng General, and more than a dozen will be the Chief Executive. Everyone has official positions, except for the three of us. Is there any misunderstanding in the middle?"

Zhou Xian shook his head and said, "There is no misunderstanding. The list is provided by me, and you three are specifically excluded."

Xia Wanchun said anxiously: "But why is this!"

Zhou Xian said: "Hyung is the prince of North Korea, and Shangzhi is the brother of the King of North Korea. He has a special status. If something happens to you in my Ming Dynasty, how can I explain to the two kings? As for Xiaoyin, you are too young to hold your knife and your gun. Can I expect you to go into battle and kill the enemy?"

The monk Li Xuanshu looked at each other and stepped forward and said, "Master General, since the Ming Dynasty, we have abandoned our original identities and have eaten and lived with the students. Besides, the Ming Dynasty is a country of our parents. It is our honor to do something for the Ming Dynasty at this time. I hope the Supervisor General can accomplish it."

Zhou Xian frowned and said, "Then where are your father and brother?"

Li Xuanshu hurriedly said, "Don't worry, General Supervisor. I will write a letter to my father and tell him about this. Even if any accidents really occur in the future, it has nothing to do with General Supervisor."

Shang Zhi also hurriedly said: "Zhi will also write a letter to inform Brother Wang."

Zhou Xian thought for a while and said, "Okay! I allow you to enter the army, but the most important thing in the army is discipline. If you violate orders without authorization because of your identity, it may be very difficult for me to spare you even if I am willing to spare you. You must be clear about this."

The two of them were extremely excited and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, we know."

Xia Wanchun's face looked ugly, as if she was about to shed tears. "Master General, isn't I the only one left?"

Zhou Xian couldn't see this, "Okay, okay. You are still young and cannot be incorporated into the army. I will arrange a praise painting for you and follow Sun Xuan in the future. I have the right to propose military affairs, but I don't have to directly participate in the battle with the enemy."

Xia Wanchun became happy, "Thank you, Governor."

Zhou Xian said: "Is there anything else?"

The three of them shook their heads and said, "It's gone, then I'll say goodbye first."

Zhou Xian said slowly: "Wait a moment! I ordered people to cook porridge, it should be almost ready, and I will leave after drinking it."

Zhou Xian served a bowl of hot porridge, and the millet was mixed with some lean meat, which tasted delicious. A bowl of it entered the stomach, and the fatigue of the night was wiped out. He looked at Gu Yanwu and Yu Chenglong and said, "Drink it too!"

Gu Yanwu drank a small sip.

Yu Chenglong couldn't drink it and asked directly: "Master General, why did you let me be the deputy of the Prefect Wang? And give him so much power to examine the officials."

Zhou Xian's face was joking, "Do you don't like Wang Zhang?"

Yu Chenglong said: "Those who deceive the world and steal the reputation will criticize all officials everywhere without considering the actual situation. Except for all his frank reputation, they will not benefit the world at all."

Zhou Xian smiled and said, "That's why you need to be his deputy!" Seeing Yu Chenglong's face puzzled, Zhou Xian continued, "Shandong encountered wars. In order to stabilize the situation as soon as possible, many officials were activated and many people were appointed. There are those I value, and those recommended by Gao Futai and others, which are mixed and have different character. However, because it involves the interests of many people, some people have faults, but I can't deal with it directly. But Wang Zhang is different. He is upright and does not belong to any interest group. He comes forward to eliminate the messy people among the officials. Don't you think it is the most appropriate?"

Yu Chenglong thought for a moment and said, "What if the people under the commander-in-chief commit a crime!"

Zhou Xian said in a deep voice: "No matter who it is, you must punish it according to the law. Beiming, if I ask you to enforce the law in the army, I value your selfless character. You will do your best to assist Wang Zhang without much care. I will decide everything for you at that time."

Yu Chenglong clasped his fists and said to Zhou Xian: "I understand."

Zhou Xian then turned to Gu Yanwu and smiled and said, "Zhongqing, do you feel that the burden on him is too heavy?"

Gu Yanwu smiled bitterly and said, "This is the commander who trusts his subordinates. But you only gave me 500,000 taels of silver, but you asked me to open three colleges in Yanzhou, Dongchang and Qingzhou within one year. Each of them could accommodate 200 children. I also asked me to recruit talents and newspapers to enlighten the people's wisdom. In addition, I recruit opera singers, storytellers, and miscellaneous books to gather them together to promote loyalty and righteousness for the soldiers in the army and the people. The burden is really not light, and the silver is really too little!"

Zhou Xian laughed, "Zhongqing, this is not like you!"

Gu Yanwu sighed and said, "It is hard to cook without rice! Since the commander-in-chief wants to open up the wisdom of the people and let the people know honor and disgrace, he has to give enough money, otherwise his subordinates will not be able to do it!"

Zhou Xian nodded, "Then which item do you think consumes the most money?"

Gu Yanwudao: "Open a college and a private school."
