Zhang Yu watched the two people leave and took the post from Li Qinghe. He saw that the signature was written with the word "Qiu Shang" and the academic title at the back was "Xue Ling". This should be the Qiu Xueling mentioned by those two people.
.
The content of the post was the same as what the two people said, asking him to go to the Zhen Auditorium tomorrow, but the specific purpose was not stated. Moreover, the wording was not very polite, and it had a sense of condescension.
He thought to himself that the Zhen Auditorium was a place for oral defense lectures, and his previous self-recommendation was held there.
In a few days, according to the agreement with the academy, he will start teaching the language and customs of the Hardclaw tribe to some students, so this matter is most likely related to this.
He flipped through the post and found that the seal was the seal of the academy, which meant that the call for him this time was issued through the academy. As the assistant teacher of the academy, he had to go.
"Is this the academy wanting to confirm again before I officially teach that indigenous language, or is it that some people in the academy want to get something out of it?"
He thought about it and felt that both of these aspects were possible, because the interests involved in this matter were indeed not small.
The appearance of a powerful indigenous tribe with tens of thousands of warriors in the empty southern region of the Protectorate is likely to lead to changes in the entire strategic direction, and even endanger the stability of the Protectorate, and the games and disputes that will arise from this
It is conceivable that at times like this, it is inevitable that some people will be ready to take action.
But no matter what, he is the one who masters the way of communicating with this tribe now, so no matter what those people want to do, they can't bypass him.
He retracted his thoughts and turned to look at Li Qinghe. This young man was very sensible. When he was thinking just now, he had been standing beside him silently. He said: "Qinghe, you just accepted the post, and your manners were decent."
, who taught you?”
Li Qinghe replied: "Sir, it was taught by the elders of the clan. He not only taught Tianxia writing, but also taught Tianxia etiquette and rules."
Zhang Yu shook his head and said: "Your elders taught you very well, but your etiquette is only about 'outer appearance', not 'internal use'. It's useless no matter how well you practice it. When I have free time, I will teach you a set of instructions."
You have to practice Yin Shu well."
Li Qinghe didn't understand the difference here, but he was very smart. Hearing that Zhang Yu wanted to teach him something, he was very excited and said: "Yes, sir. Qinghe will definitely do a good job seriously."
While the two were talking, a voice came in from outside the door: "Assistant Zhang, are you here? Liu Guang is here to visit."
Zhang Yu heard the sound, stood up, went to the front and opened the door in person, cupped his hands and said, "Why is Master Liu here?"
Liu Guang returned the gift and said with a slightly condensed expression: "Master Zhang, did anyone from the Academy come here just now?"
Zhang Yu's heart moved, he stepped aside and said: "Master Liu, please speak inside."
Liu Guang cupped his hands and stepped in.
Zhang Yu invited him into the study. After the two of them sat down, Qinghe brought the tea.
Liu Guang looked at it and said in surprise: "Xuren?" He was a little envious, "Assistant teacher Zhang has picked a good assistant."
Being an assistant is not something you can just get. Before each Xuren can recognize a master, they need the approval of the elders of their clan.
This is because the Xu people are also afraid that their tribesmen will follow the wrong master, which will harm the lives of their tribesmen. Therefore, when choosing a person to follow, they have to use the Tianxia people's method to ask divination. If the divination shows that there is no problem, this will
agree.
Liu Guang also wanted to select a bearded man to help him before, but unfortunately he failed. If he failed once, he would not have another chance, because all the bearing tribes would recognize this result.
Zhang Yu took the post over and said, "There was indeed a visitor from the academy just now, and they also brought this."
Liu Guang took it and took a look, frowned and said, "Sure enough..."
Zhang Yu asked: "Master Liu, do you know why the academy is looking for me this time?"
Liu Guang sneered and said: "There are some people who see that this matter is profitable and want to have a hand in it. Because Zhang Fujiao, you are the key to this matter, so these people all want to get it from you."
gap."
Zhang Yu nodded. Sure enough, this was the case. He asked, "Does Master Liu know the origin of Qiu Xueling's name on this post?"
Liu Guangdao: "This Qiu Xueling was originally the most proficient translator of Anshan indigenous languages in Taiyang Academy. In recent years, it is said that he has also visited some naturalized indigenous people in the Duhu Mansion, copied and compiled books, and wanted to come up with a set of
I compared it with the dictionaries of all tribes. But there has been little news in the past few years, so I thought he had retired to retire."
He raised his head and said: "I have had several contacts with Qiu Xueling. This senior is indeed very knowledgeable, especially in the culture and language of various tribes. He has made many achievements in the past and translated a large number of texts from the indigenous tribes near Anshan.
The ancient tree bark books have really enriched the library of the academy. By the way, he also had a good relationship with Duke Zhan, who served as the memorial wine in the academy, and his current disciple Zhan Zhitong is the son of Duke Zhan."
Zhang Yu thought for a moment, judging from Liu Guang's words, this Qiu Xue should have been a marginal figure, and he should have been pushed out by some force. However, it is worth noting that this person seems to be very knowledgeable and proficient in the indigenous languages.
.
Liu Guang put down the post and said solemnly: "According to the news I just heard, I may be planning to question you this time."
When Zhang Yu heard this, his eyes moved slightly and he thought quickly, "Shen Wen..."
The so-called Shen Wen, placed in the Taiyang Academy, is a learning test for the teachers in the palace. If it is found that someone is not knowledgeable enough and is no longer qualified for his position, then the Academy can dismiss him.
This was actually an early rule. After three more schools were established in the Protectorate, Taiyang Academy rarely did this anymore.
Liu Guang looked up at him with a serious expression and asked: "Master Zhang, according to your judgment, if you speak the language of the Hardclaw tribe, is there anyone else who can speak the language of the Hard Claw tribe besides you?"
He was very concerned about this matter, because Zhang Yu entered the academy through self-recommendation in front of him, Zhu Anshi, and Xin Yao. Not even a month had passed. If Zhang Yu went wrong during this application, the three of them would
It's also inseparable.
Zhang Yudao: "Has this Qiu Xueling been to the depths of the jungle east of Anshan?"
Liu Guang shook his head and said: "Qiu Xueling is over ninety years old, which is quite young. He has spent his whole life buried in scriptures in the academy, and he has never heard of the experience of traveling far away before."
Zhang Yu was slightly surprised and said: "Is he over ninety? So, this Qiu Xueling has also experienced that battle that year?"
In that battle sixty years ago, almost most of the Tianxia adult men in the Duhu Mansion went to the battlefield, and not many of them came back alive. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many Anhe in the Duhu Mansion now.
A mixed-race official from Cheyenne.
At that time, Qiu Xueling was almost in his thirties, and he was at his strongest.
Liu Guang, with a sneer on his face, said: "This Qiu Xueling has never been to the battlefield. I heard that on the eve of the war that year, he happened to break a leg and was unconscious for many days afterwards, so he was unable to go."
But when he said this, he emphasized: "However, regardless of his character, this man's knowledge cannot be faked. I have listened to his lectures before, and he is quite knowledgeable."
When Zhang Yu heard this, he could be sure that the other party did not know the language of the Jianzhao tribe. This tribe only migrated from the inland two or three years ago. Even if Qiu Xueling had been to the deep inland before, he would not be able to contact it at all.
.
He said: "Teacher Liu, there is no need to worry about this matter. I just think that this Qiu Xueling may not be trying to test me, but has other plans."
When Liu Guang heard this, he was startled for a moment, and he suddenly came to his senses. He couldn't help but make a fist with his hand and hit his forehead. He was worried and confused.
If Qiu Xueling understands the language of the Jianclaw tribe, can't he just replace Zhang Yu with himself? Why do he have to make such a big show? Isn't this unnecessary?
So there must be some other idea here.
He asked: "How does Assistant Teacher Zhang plan to deal with it tomorrow?"
Zhang Yu said in a natural tone: "It's just a matter of time and again."
Now he is not only an assistant teacher, but also has entered Xuanfu. As long as he does not violate the rules openly, the academy cannot do anything to him. But if possible, he would like to continue to be an assistant teacher in the academy, because in
This identity is also a very important part of his plan to collect source energy items.
Liu Guang was also infected by Zhang Yu's calmness and felt a lot calmer.
But think about it, as long as Zhang Yu still masters the tribal language, he is the biggest supporter, and the academy will not do anything to him no matter what.
He said: "Be careful and you won't make a big mistake, Assistant Zhang. I'm going back first. Tomorrow I will go to the Zhen Auditorium with you."
Zhang Yu made an appointment with him at a time, and then set off to see him off. After sending him out, he returned to the study, picked up the post and read it again. Combined with what Liu Guang said, he thought of a possibility.
Whether it is yes or no, we will find out tomorrow.
