Chapter 509: Gentlemen Obsessed with Class
If not, why would she be so nosy?
After all, this is Dayong, and these are the people of Dayong. What does their suffering have to do with a person from another world?
.......
As for Murong Yun, compared with the assassinations and sieges that Wen Renye had to face, and the various obstructions that Gu Mingzhe faced.
Because of the three words "Second Prince", everything went relatively smoothly.
Murong Yun received the three gentlemen with great courtesy and told them all his troubles. Then the three gentlemen rushed to
For example, starting with the common people, three gentlemen led a group of poor students to publicize the court policies to the people in different gathering places.
Of course, among these three gentlemen, Chunyu Ji was the main one to grasp the general direction.
The other two, Guo Zixin and Yan Rulie, respectively mobilized the students here to carry out promotion and education.
In the name of early practical learning, these students were sent to the people to promote reform policies for the court.
Of course, Zhong Ning also mentioned the internship.
Even if the three gentlemen were dissatisfied, they did not dare to openly refute the princess's opinion, so the matter was decided.
The students had originally heard that the three tutors were coming and were worried that they would not have the opportunity to learn from them. Now that they had gotten this assignment, they were truly overjoyed.
So, the three tutors raised their arms and called out to all the students in Xining City, who were all excited.
When the students learned that Xining City was now ruled by His Royal Highness the Second Prince himself and that talented people were in great need, it felt like a huge pie had fallen from the sky and landed right on their heads.
Who is that?
That’s the second prince of the dynasty!
The Eastern Palace is now seriously ill and is almost a disabled person. All the officials of the Eastern Palace have been assigned to other places. It can be seen that His Majesty has long given up on the Eastern Palace and turned to training the Second Prince.
Therefore, the three words "Second Prince" are now equivalent to the future new emperor.
In the past, during the change of dynasties, the emperor would have at least three or five sons competing for power. In order to increase their bargaining chips, everyone had to choose different investment targets.
But it’s different now. His Majesty has only this one golden nugget.
Whether it is court officials or the common people, there is no need to have any other choice. As long as they follow the footsteps of the Second Prince and gain his trust, they will be granted titles and appointed as prime ministers in the near future.
There are currently two academies in Xining City.
One is Jintai Academy, which has a strong faculty and many children of aristocrats.
The other is Chongwen College, which is mostly populated by poor students.
Guo Zixin went to Jintai Academy and Yan Rulie went to Chongwen Academy.
Jintai Academy was built in the east of the city near the foot of a branch of Mount Futu. The entire academy is truly spectacular with vermilion lacquer and green tiles.
Guo Zixin was warmly welcomed by the students in the academy, and the teachers in the academy praised Guo Daru endlessly.
Guo Zixin gradually lost himself in this gorgeous flattery, and unconsciously began to teach unconsciously. He spoke like a Zhihu person, and he could easily analyze the words of sages.
This also allowed the students of Jintai Academy to take an exclusive class taught by a great scholar.
It was not until the sun set that he stopped talking and left the hall satisfied.
When he walked out of Jintai Academy and got into the carriage, he was still savoring the exciting teaching session that day.
God knows, because Princess Zhaohua abducted the second prince out of the capital, he hasn't taught a class for more than a month. Today, when he came to the academy and saw those pairs of eyes eager for knowledge, he couldn't help but teach.
"Today is such a wonderful day!" Guo Zixin thought so, with a smile on his face until the moment the carriage arrived in front of the county government office.
Only then did Guo Zixin slap himself hard.
He said that he seemed to have forgotten something important. It turned out that today he was supposed to publicize the court's new policies to the students in the academy and announce the county government's plan to recruit interns, but as soon as he started class, he forgot everything.
The same is true for Yan Rulie.
When he walked into the slightly shabby and even leaky school building, and saw the students who were dressed very simply and had slightly yellow faces, he couldn't help but donated two hundred taels of silver on the spot to help repair the school building.
Another one couldn't help but picked up the sage's book and gave a lively and interesting lesson to the many poor students in the school who were thirsty for knowledge and hoped to listen to the teachings of the great scholar.
After class, he still couldn't help feeling sorry for the children who had to study under such difficult conditions. He immediately stated that he would report the situation of Chongwen Academy to the court, and the court would fund its rectification.
Even when he got on the carriage back home, he still couldn't remember what he came here for today. He only remembered what he saw today.
In the county government office, Murong Yun finished a busy day of official business and finally found time to meet with the three gentlemen. He also asked about the assignment to the academy today.
Zhong Ning had heard the news long ago and came over specially to see the fun.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they entered, the three gentlemen all looked ashamed, lowered their heads one by one, and did not dare to look at Zhong Ning's expression.
If only Murong Yun was here, they would of course be able to maneuver around and come up with many excuses, saying that today was not a good opportunity.
But as luck would have it, Princess Zhaohua is here!
"So, when you went to the academy today, you actually went to attend classes?" Zhong Ning spoke directly without any mercy, almost saying that they went out and did nothing, and even forgot their errand.
By the way, they arranged this job themselves.
"Tomorrow, I will go there again and I will definitely not forget it again!" Guo Zixin said with a stiff upper lip, facing Zhong Ning's suspicious gaze.
Yan Rulie's expression was not very good either. He only agreed: "Today we will forget for a while, and tomorrow we will definitely complete our mission!"
Chunyu Ji's old face had already turned red at this time. He did not go out, but only assisted Murong Yun in the county government office. He also thought about how to assist the second prince to better promote reforms and solve the current difficulties.
But he didn't expect that his two good friends would do such a thing and completely forget his instructions and tasks.
This was also his mistake!
Zhong Ning placed the tea heavily on the table, his voice unmistakable:
"No need. Publish a notice saying the county government is recruiting part-time interns. In their spare time, outside of schoolwork, they will do some practical work for the county government. Poor students will be given priority. There will be a salary subsidy of 200 wen per month."
"The internship lasts for three months. Upon completion, the county government will issue an internship certificate. This will also be a reference for future imperial examinations!"
"Those interested should come to the county government office to register within three days!"
"As long as you pass the county government assessment, you can be elected!"
Murong Yun's eyes lit up, and he immediately said to Zhong Ning, "Sister, this is a very good idea, but how should this assessment be set up?"
Zhong Ning raised his eyes calmly and said casually, "Aren't we supposed to publicize the court's policies to the people right now? This is one of the tests!"
