Everyone expected Song Lian's promise, but they didn't expect that Song Lian nodded so quickly.

The Imperial College mainly teaches academic subjects, and agricultural and engineering departments are involved. The acceptance of those students and doctors is a problem. Isn't he afraid of causing unrest, or...

Some people thought of the discussion that took place when they entered the palace about what the Crown Prince's tutor had done and where he had gone last night.

Imperial College and Ministry of Justice.

That's it!

Crown Prince Zhu Biao was naturally a little surprised, but he accepted it later and issued an edict.

When the sun reached its zenith, it entered the temple and left it. By this time, some people were already unable to stand.

Some of them did so because of old age, and some wanted to seize the initiative, but generally speaking, it was time for this court meeting to end.

If there are any further matters that need to be discussed, they must be submitted to the subsequent meeting.

"My dear ministers, you have worked so hard for a long time. Let's end today's court meeting here."

After the decree, Crown Prince Zhu Biao made the announcement.

......

"Teacher! Where are we going next?"

The court officials began to disperse. In a corner, Crown Prince Yuntong and Gao Yan stretched their stiff waists.

It was hard for them that this first court meeting lasted so long.

"Master Taisun! I have some doubts and would like to make a request!"

When the two boys looked at Zhao Zheng, Song Lian also moved closer, and the two boys quickly bowed and made way.

"Mr. Song, just say it's fine, but asking for advice is too kind."

Zhao Zheng also quickly stood up to return the greeting. Changing his vest also refreshed him. He had to block out the feeling of tiredness from standing in the vest of the Minister of Works.

"That's right. I forgot to discuss this last night. The agricultural and industrial divisions can be combined into one class, but the specific roster must come from the general public, and agriculture and industry require skills and experience, so..."

Song Lian, this old man who can definitely be called a great man of our time, started to hesitate when speaking.

Both boys had never seen this side of him in terms of academics.

But Zhao Zheng knew, he knew what Song Lian was worried about.

"Didn't Lord Song also say that it only matters about craftsmanship and experience?"

Although Zhao Zheng's vest could not be seen, he could guess the confusion on Song Lian's face. He smiled and said that if he was still worried, he could just put it on his shoulder.

If someone makes a correct comment afterwards, the blame will naturally be placed on him.

"Grandson Master, you..."

A look of guilt flashed across Song Lian's face until Zhao Zheng reached out and touched his hunchback.

He then turned back solemnly and summoned the scholars of the Hanlin Academy who had not yet left, which caused a burst of exclamations.

"teacher?"

A look of doubt flashed across Crown Prince Yuntong's face, but Zhu Gaozhao did not say anything.

Zhao Zheng naturally did not answer.

This time and this occasion are not suitable for indoctrinating the Crown Prince.

"Master!"

Another sound was heard, and Zhao Zheng and his men moved to the entrance of Fengtian Hall.

The person who came was naturally Zhu Gaoxu. He did not listen to Zhao Zheng's previous advice and go home, but had been waiting outside the Meridian Gate until just now.

Whether it was out of sincerity or intelligence, Zhao Zheng's face showed satisfaction even when his spirit was not yet completely free from fatigue.

So in front of the court officials who had not yet dispersed, he chose to accept the offer.

Of course, it is inevitable that there will be another round of sidelong glances.

However, Gao Xu is the second in command in the Prince of Yan's Mansion. He is not afraid, and neither is the Prince of Yan, and the Crown Prince is even less afraid.

Then everything will be fine.

"Master?"

The two boys who supported Zhao Zheng naturally understood the difference in the name, and after being surprised, they felt complicated emotions.

They were just wondering why Gao Xu was one step ahead again and why they were not recognized?

"Master, where are we going next? Back to the Zhao Mansion?"

"Go outside the city, to Zhongli Village."

Zhu Gaoxu arrogantly pushed his elder brother aside, and while the two of them were pondering why, he had already gotten completely close to Zhao Zheng.

Zhu Gaozhao naturally would not care so much. He quietly gave up his seat. Even though he wanted to ask questions in his heart, he still waited for a more suitable grandson to speak.

"Nakazato Village?"

"Teacher! The students know!"

Zhongli Village involved Zhu Gaoxu's blind spot, and Taisun Yuntong spoke quickly, his thoughts couldn't be more obvious.

"Then do you know why the teacher went there?"

Zhao Zheng turned to test the crown prince, smiled and shook his head at the jealousy between his apprentice and students.

"Well... maybe there is something important there that needs a teacher."

"My father and grandfather also said that treating veterans well is something we must do."

Crown Prince Yuntong still couldn't quite understand the reason, but at least he knew it.

"Yes, and also wrong."

"There's nothing wrong with the teacher going there, just because the teacher likes it."

“It doesn’t matter where I go or what I do, but it matters where I am.”

"Let Gao Xu accompany me. You two have your own things to do. After today, it won't matter whether you stay with the teacher or not. Everything I should teach you is in what I saw and heard yesterday."

Zhao Zheng could take Crown Prince Yuntong to wander around the imperial city, or even the outer city.

But going outside Yingtianfu City is not very realistic. The same goes for staying with him.

“Important…Not important…”

Even though Zhao Zheng had explained it very clearly, it was still too difficult for the two boys, especially Crown Prince Yuntong, to understand and accept it so easily.

The first thought that came to the boy's mind was whether he had done something wrong to make Zhao Zheng unhappy.

"Teacher, you haven't assigned today's homework to the students yet..."

"Yes, teacher..."

Gao Yan was not angry, and the Crown Prince was not arrogant. Zhao Zheng knew that these two little guys were both very good children.

So with a sigh, Zhao Zheng could only take action again, a real action. He directly grabbed a court official who had been standing for a long time and was weak and walking behind, intending to pass by quietly.

"This lord?"

"Master Zhao... Zhao... Zhao! I am doing my job during the court session. I really did not mean to do this, and I would never dare to target you!!!"

The captured courtier was almost frightened to his knees, but he appeared outside the Fengtian Hall and among the courtiers, with the imperial power in front of him.

He was sure how much trouble kneeling would bring to Zhao Zheng.

But he was more certain that he could not see what happened next.

"It's alright. During the court session, you dared to come forward and be a role model for a subject! But Zhao wants to apologize for accidentally touching you."

"It's not the issue, it's not the issue, then I will continue..."

Without waiting for Zhao Zheng to finish waving his hands, and even before he had time to greet the Crown Prince, the official simply ran away, no longer looking as weak as before.

......

"What did you see?"

Without waiting for the two students to hesitate, the apprentice was the first to answer.

"It's fear! Just like when I saw my father looking for me with a whip in hand!"

The two students were stunned.

However, what shocked them even more was that Zhao Zheng nodded with satisfaction again, and Zhu Gaoxu jumped up proudly again.

"The homework that Master has assigned to you two is to figure out why that colleague is afraid of Master? And why are you, your father, and even your grandfather afraid of Master?"

"When you are no longer afraid of being a teacher, that will be the time for you to become a teacher. Go ahead and do your job."

After Zhao Zheng finished speaking, the two fell into deep thought and panic again.

Afraid? Father and Grandpa are afraid too?

When they looked up, Zhao Zheng had already walked away with the support of Gao Xu.

They only saw the officials walking in front of the teacher quickening their pace, those walking beside the teacher bowing, and those walking behind inexplicably moving in place.

I only vaguely heard Zhu Gaoxu's rude question.

"Master! Why are we going to that shabby village in Zhongli Village? I still have golden beans! Why don't we go tomorrow? I will find someone to renovate it today!"

And Zhao Zheng never tires of answering.

"You, old habits die hard!"

"That village is the Master's eyes, so the Master will naturally be their voice..."
