Chapter seven hundred and seventh angry Zhang Ximeng
In order to invite the true god Zhang Ximeng to arrive, Zhu Di took great pains. In addition to the early publicity and grand welcome, he also vacated his palace, repainted it, and invited Zhang Ximeng to live there.
Zhang Ximeng did not agree. He was not comfortable living in such a large palace. Fortunately, when Zhang Ximeng came to Peiping in the past, the place he lived in was still there and was well maintained. Especially the locust tree in the yard had grown much taller.
, lush and lush.
Zhang Ximeng was very satisfied, settled down, put away the manuscript, and then went to the banquet. Zhu Di, Hu Dahai, and several other generals, including Chu Qi who had just arrived, and Huang Zicheng, all surrounded Zhang Ximeng.
He was extremely polite, especially Hu Dahai, who could be described as humble.
Zhang Ximeng wanted to laugh when he looked at him, "I said, Lao Hu, what kind of friendship do we have? Are you playing this with me?"
Hu Dahai had a sad face and said helplessly: "Hu Dahai, the Duke of Yue, naturally does not have to be like this, but my three grandsons are really not up to par... I have no choice but to ask Mr. Zhang to teach me, otherwise our Hu family will definitely fall."
.I have a hereditary and irreplaceable title, and I am afraid that I will have no successor!"
Zhang Ximeng couldn't help but nodded, "It's not easy to be a father, and it's even harder to be an ancestor. Don't worry, this matter will be taken care of by me." Zhang Ximeng agreed without hesitation. Without him, Zhang Ximeng could shirk other people's affairs, but when it came to Hu Dahai,
, he couldn't shirk it. This man sacrificed his son for the sake of enforcing military law, and then spent so many years in Peiping building the Great Wall, which was a great achievement. He couldn't refuse it no matter what.
Hu Dahai was so grateful that he almost wanted to cry. He said nothing more. It was too difficult to teach children, much harder than killing the enemy in war.
He would rather hold a knife and chop down a city than teach his children to do homework.
Only you know what it feels like.
Zhang Ximeng's arrival in Peiping gave many people hope. The generals and ordinary people in the army were all happy, smiling, and full of fighting spirit.
With Zhang Xiangzai, Peiping will no longer be a desert for education. Soon there will be a world-class school capable of cultivating talents. Parents who hope that their children will succeed will also have hope.
After a banquet, the guests and hosts had a great time. Zhang Ximeng returned to his residence and rested for two days. After all, he was no longer in his twenties. At that time, he was running around doing military and civil affairs. He was so busy that he seemed never tired.
It doesn’t work anymore. As a middle-aged person, adding wolfberries to the teacup one by one still makes me tired.
Zhang Ximeng took advantage of his break to read the manuscript and prepare to give formal lectures in a few days.
And on the third day after Zhang Ximeng arrived in Peiping, someone came to visit him.
Obviously, ordinary people cannot come, but this person has a special status. He is a student of Jimin Academy and one of the teachers who prepared for Peking University. The person who came here is none other than Fang Xiaoru.
"Sit down." Zhang Ximeng quite admired Fang Xiaoru. At least during his time at Jimin Academy, Fang Xiaoru had practiced it and preached among the people to change customs and eradicate three aunts and six wives. He had done a lot, and he was a role model among the students.
Moreover, Fang Xiaoru worked tirelessly to come to Peiping from Jiangxi just to further promote education.
Such a good student who is hard-working and not afraid of hardship is definitely enough to cover up his inherent prejudices.
After Fang Xiaoru thanked him, he sat down. He looked at Zhang Ximeng's expression and found that Mr. Zhang was in a good mood and looked very good today.
"Sir, do you know that His Highness, King Yan, is a disgrace to gentlemen? On the surface, he is running a school, but in fact, he is corrupting the academic style of the Ming Dynasty. I, I want to impeach him!"
Zhang Ximeng was startled for a moment, "Fang Xiaoru, I'm not saying that King Yan cannot be impeached. But his speech must have evidence and cannot talk nonsense. Do you know the situation in Peking?"
Fang Xiaoru paused for a moment and said: "Of course I know that Peking is indeed not easy, but I'm afraid that if King Yan behaves like this, the Peking University Hall, which has placed the hopes of countless people, will come to nothing."
Zhang Ximeng said seriously: "Is it so serious?"
Fang Xiaoru nodded vigorously and said worriedly: "I'm afraid it's more serious than this!"
Zhang Ximeng thought for a while, "Do you have any evidence?"
Fang Xiaoru thought for a while and said, "Xiang Zhang, are you willing to go with the students to see it?"
Zhang Ximeng thought for a while and finally nodded.
They got into a carriage, followed by two attendants to protect Zhang Ximeng's safety, and then the carriage arrived at Peking University Hall, not far from Prince Yan's Mansion.
Standing outside and looking at it, this school covers a vast area, has magnificent buildings, tall brick walls, neat courtyards, and a square shape, which is very in line with the aesthetics of the north.
Fang Xiaoru rolled her eyelids and said, "Xiangong Zhang, he is nothing more than gold and jade. You come with the students."
Fang Xiaoru took the lead and led Zhang Ximeng to a separate school building. The front yard here is responsible for assessing students. Those who pass the assessment will live here temporarily, waiting for further arrangements.
Fang Xiaoru randomly knocked on the door of a room, and inside there was a stout young man with a dark complexion, like a sub-adult black bear, very stocky.
He seemed to know Fang Xiaoru, "You, what are you doing here?"
Fang Xiaoru said: "Nothing, I just came to take a look."
After finishing speaking, he turned to Zhang Ximeng and said: "Sir, his name is Kuleca, he is a Jurchen, and his family is the leader of the tribe."
Zhang Ximeng nodded and looked at him carefully. He could not be said to be extremely smart, but he could also be said to be naive and stupid.
"How did he pass the test?"
Fang Xiaoru said: "Prime Minister Zhang, let him speak for himself!"
This young man named Kuleza is not timid. On the contrary, he is very proud, "I, I can count to fifty, fifty!"
"Fifty? Can you count fifty?" Zhang Ximeng was stunned. At this level, he couldn't even pass the first grade of elementary school. How could he sneak into the university hall!
"Can you count to fifty?" Zhang Ximeng pondered.
Kuler nodded and said: "My father said, we only have thirty-six pairs of armors, and being able to count to fifty is already a lot."
Zhang Ximeng was stunned, "How many tribesmen do you have? How many horses?"
Kuler shook his head, "Then who can count! Anyway, we are the strongest tribe in Tieling, and no one is our opponent!"
Hearing this, Zhang Ximeng understood that among these Jurchen tribes, iron weapons were rare and armor was more important, so their wealth was not slaves and horses, but armor!
No wonder someone wants to preach that starting a business with thirteen pairs of armor turns out to be this truth!
No matter what, he has thirty-six pairs of armors. Based on this calculation, he can kill Nantianmen.
Zhang Ximeng said thoughtfully: "You can count to fifty, which is enough for you. Why do you still come to school?"
Kuler wiped his face and said: "Who asked that general named Lan to send so many armors to our family? If they were put together, I wouldn't be able to count them. My father would kick my ass and force me to come.
Go to school."
Ku Le said angrily: "When are you going to teach me how to count! When I learn how to count, I can go home. I also want to ride a horse and hunt, and steal Aqiao to be my wife!"
Zhang Ximeng gave him a thumbs up and said, "Very good. You are ambitious. I wish you success."
Coming out of Kuleca, Zhang Ximeng's face didn't look very good.
Fang Xiaoru didn't say much, and knocked on another door. There was also a young man here. To say he was a young man was a bit too polite. This man's lips and cheeks already had dark hair, and he would soon grow into a burly man.
He was about to take a bow and go out on horseback to shoot arrows!
When he saw Fang Xiaoru, he complained that the hunting grounds in Peiping were too small and not as good as their grasslands! There was not much prey, so he could only hunt pheasants and hares. At home, he shot tigers and wolves.
Zhang Ximeng asked Fang Xiaoru again. As expected, this was also the young master of the Mongolian tribe.
"Can he count to fifty too?"
Fang Xiaoru shook his head, "This guy was admitted because he was good at riding and shooting."
When Zhang Ximeng heard this, his face was solemn and he walked out without asking any more questions. Fang Xiaoru also hurriedly followed out and stood behind Zhang Ximeng.
"How about this? Is this common?"
Fang Xiaoru nodded, "Many, King Yan does not follow the rules when recruiting students. As long as they give money, anyone will want it. Prime Minister Zhang, you know best that whether the school is good or not mainly depends on the students. If King Yan continues like this, what will happen to him?"
The Peking University Hall has been finished before it even opens. The students are really heartbroken to see it, so I implore Xianggong Zhang to restrain King Yan and not let so many people’s expectations go to waste!”
Fang Xiaoru was heartbroken. He had a heart filled with charcoal. He came to Peiping and wanted to help set up schools, develop education, and turn Hu into summer.
After the results came, I was poured a basin of cold water on me.
With Zhu Di's virtue, if he could run the school well, he would be a ghost.
Zhang Ximeng pondered again and again and said angrily: "Go and call Zhu Di!"
Mr. Zhang was very angry and Zhu Laosi was in great trouble.
We have our own accounts and are not afraid to settle them. You bastard, you just cheated me out of several books. Don’t think you can get away with a grand welcome ceremony!
After hearing Zhang Ximeng's greeting, Zhu Di came over quickly without daring to hesitate.
When he came in, he felt a low pressure.
Although he is the King of Yan, Zhang Ximeng is the King of Lu. It seems that he has some advantages. But I'm sorry, let alone him, even his father may not be able to withstand Zhang Ximeng's methods.
How can Zhu Di do it?
After he came in, he immediately withered.
"Sir, do you have any instructions? Zhu Di is all ears!"
Zhang Ximeng snorted coldly: "Zhu Di, what else can I tell you? Don't you have an idea? You have a clever plan and you have plotted against me. You are so majestic!"
Seeing that Zhang Ximeng was really angry, Zhu Laosi was shaking all over and his knees were weak.
"Mr. Zhang, how dare Zhu Di be so rebellious! Zhang Shuning and I are good friends and good brothers. His father is my father. Zhu Di regards Mr. Zhang as his father!"
Snap!
"Is it because you are teasing me when I give you Zhu Di as your father?" Zhang Ximeng was furious, "Peking University Hall, the name is so good! You just hide evil people and people, you don't distinguish between good and bad, you recruit everyone, and you haven't
When you open the door, it's full of smoke! Zhu Di, I can tell you, I'm not the only one who's watching this school, Duke Yue and others also have high hopes for it. If you ruin it like this, even your father can't save you!"
This was the first time Zhu Di saw Zhang Ximeng so angry. He was so scared that he was shaking all over and almost cried. He said aggrievedly: "Sir, there is nothing I can do! Who asked them to pay more...I, I just can't control me."
