Han Du's cold gaze made everyone tremble, especially the eunuchs and maids.
He knew with his backside that Han Du would not do anything to these princes. At most, he would make them suffer a little, and he would never kill them. But Han Du killed eunuchs and maids like them whenever he wanted without any hesitation.
How could the eunuch and maid not be afraid of such a ruthless person?
In the past, they could rely on the favor of their princes to act recklessly in front of others, but in front of Han Du, even their princes could not protect themselves. Who else could stand up and support them?
Seeing that Han Du finally shocked these people, he took a deep breath and shouted: "Get out!!!"
As if they had been granted amnesty, all the eunuchs and maids no longer cared about their prince, and ran out of the courtyard peeing and stumbling.
Han Du saw these eunuchs and maids running away like frightened birds. He turned towards everyone's fleeing backs and shouted: "Go away, if I see you in the academy again, I will kill you without mercy!"
After everyone heard this, they seemed to feel a strong and cold murderous aura coming towards them from behind. They were so frightened that they ran out of the academy without looking back.
After Han Du saw that all the eunuchs and maids had escaped, he turned around and stared at the princes standing there with a frosty expression.
Without those eunuchs and maids, the number of people was reduced by eighty to ninety percent in an instant, leaving only about twenty people standing here.
I have to say that Lao Zhu’s family is really capable of giving birth. Lao Zhu himself gave birth to more than twenty sons alone, although there are not too many here now. But you must know that those who can be sent to the academy have already completed enlightenment, which means that the youngest of these princes is almost ten years old. The younger princes of the princes' palaces were even ignorant of boys, so they were not sent at all.
It can be seen from this that the fertility of Lao Zhu's family is indeed strong.
Han Du had already seen the three brothers Zhu Gaochi. Just imagine that Han Du was always on guard against Zhu Di, so how could he ignore his three sons? But just now Han Du was busy dealing with the Crown Prince of Chu, so he didn't bother with the three of them for the time being.
Now that the dust has settled, Han Du naturally focused on the three of them.
"Why are you three hiding so far away?"
After being named by Han Du, the two brothers Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui immediately joined forces to push Zhu Gaochi to the front.
Zhu Gaochi cursed secretly, and a smile suddenly appeared on his fat face. He quickly raised his hands to Han Du and said, "Zhu Gaochi has seen the consort. Is it okay for the consort in Peiping to come in?"
Zhu Gaochi stayed in the academy, so naturally he didn't know that Han Du had been deprived of his title. It's just that he is smart and thinks that calling Han Du Prince Consort can bring him closer to him. After all, they are a family.
Before Han Du said anything, the Prince of Chu suddenly screamed after hearing this. Pointing at Han Du's nose, he jumped and cursed: "Okay, I thought you were so great. Originally, you were just a prince-in-law. If you wait for me, I will definitely report to my father and let him take you." life!"
Han Du glanced at the Prince of Chu and said nothing. He just took out the revolver again and played with it in his hand.
"I..." Prince Chu's arrogant voice suddenly weakened. He looked at the revolver in Han Du's hand with a horrified look, and reluctantly murmured: "Ugh... ..." I almost cried.
Seeing that everyone was completely shocked by him, Han Du calmly put away the revolver, faced everyone with his hands behind his back, and said: "Since you are all summoned by the emperor to study in the academy, the academy cannot resist the decree. I have to accept you."
"To be honest, if we let the academy choose on its own, we will never let you in. Do you know why?"
No one dared to answer Han Du's words, so Han Du had no choice but to say to himself: "Because the academy is the top university in the Ming Dynasty, with your study attitude of fishing for three days and posting nets for two days, you can't even enter the academy. Not qualified."
Han Du suddenly raised his head, pointed towards the outside of the courtyard, and said loudly: "Do you know who those students outside are? To tell you the truth, the worst thing they have is that they are famous for their academic achievements. Ask yourselves, if you are allowed to go It’s reliable to participate, can you pass the examination as a child student?”
Although these princes have the best resources and have everything they want, the teachers one after another are the best. But there are very few people who can really study hard. That is to say, there are only a few people like Zhu Gaochi who can really study hard.
Others are young at heart and still want to have more fun.
Don’t think that it’s easy because Tong Sheng is not even a scholar. But in fact, students taking the exam must at least memorize the Four Books and Five Classics. If you think about how thick the Four Books and Five Classics are, you will know that it is not easy.
Juren already has a certain status in the Ming Dynasty. These princes did not expect that the group of ordinary-dressed students outside would all have the title of Juren? You must know that in various princes' palaces, if subordinate officials can have the reputation of promoting people, they are already very popular with their father. As for Jinshi, that is not something that the princes can covet.
Seeing that they finally understood, Han Du clapped his hands.
A group of college servants came in holding wooden basins and placed them in front of all the princes. The tub contains the academy's unique cyan clothes and some toiletries.
Seeing everyone looking at each other, Han Du explained loudly: "Any student who enters the academy, regardless of high or low, is not allowed to bring a penny or a piece of clothing into the academy. Although you are all nobles of the emperor, you cannot exception."
"These clothes and supplies are prepared for you. If you are willing to stay in the academy, then hand over all your clothes and money and wear the clothes of the academy."
"Why do you want us to wear human clothes? We are not allowed to bring money. Do you want to starve us to death?" After listening to Han Du's words, although they were very afraid of Han Du, some of them were bold. , wanting to reason with Han Du.
Han Du glanced at the man and was not angry. He just said calmly: "The academy uses all the unique money tickets of the academy. Even if you take the money, you can't buy anything and it is of no use. In addition, you can't buy anything with the money." , if you want to stay in the academy, you must follow the rules of the academy. Otherwise, you can go back and forth wherever you go. The academy will not accept you. Is there anyone who wants to leave? If anyone wants to leave, I can Please plead with the emperor on his behalf to exempt him from the qualification to enter the academy."
Many people in the crowd were really moved when they heard that they could leave the academy. After all, in the eyes of these princes, the fact that they had just entered the academy was indeed very fresh. But after living here for so long, the novelty has long since disappeared. Now it seems that it is better to stay in the palace. If they could really leave the academy, many people would be willing.
But they couldn't leave casually, because when they came, their father had already asked them to perform well in the capital and try to leave a good impression in front of the emperor. If you leave now, how will you explain it to your father?
Although these guys are not old, their ability to fight is not small at all. From a young age, they have been influenced by their ears and eyes, and they are eyeing the throne. If their father is unhappy, wouldn't it mean that they have no hope of inheriting the throne in the future?
Therefore, although everyone was very excited about Han Du's proposal, no one stood up and said that he wanted to leave.
Han Du glanced at these people and realized that what he said just now was the truth. If someone was unwilling to stay in the academy, he would go and defend them even if he risked being disliked by Lao Zhu.
Now that no one wants to leave, it saves Han Du a lot of trouble.
"Since no one wants to leave, you can go back and change your clothes. The academy will keep your things for you, and you can put them on again when you go home to visit relatives every month."
After hearing this, Zhu Gaochi boldly asked: "Consort, can we go back every month?"
Han Du nodded expressionlessly and said: "The academy has two days of rest every month. You can take this opportunity to go back."
Of course, when Han Du said that they should go back, he certainly didn't mean to go back to your fiefdoms. In that case, two days would not be enough for a round trip of thousands of miles.
Han Du said that they could go back to the kings' mansions in the capital.
In order to facilitate the kings to live when they returned to the capital, Lao Zhu built a palace for them in the capital. This palace is usually taken care of by people, but no one lives in it.
Han Du added: "I have said just now that you are not qualified to enter the academy with your knowledge. But now that you have come in and we cannot kick you out, we can only increase your study tasks and strive to be able to get into the academy as soon as possible. Bring up your knowledge."
"So, you will be very busy and tired next time. I hope you are prepared."
Someone suddenly asked: "But we heard that eating in the academy also costs money. You took away all our money, how can we eat? Do you want to starve us to death?"
Han Du explained in a calm tone: "You are in the academy, and you will have the same amount of money every month. You can use this money to buy various things."
"What? A month's worth of money? This prince used to eat ten pieces of money at a meal. Are you really planning to starve us to death?" The prince of Chu King was punished twice by Han Du, but he still didn't grow up. Memory, he dared to stand up and question Han Du again.
Han Du didn't know whether to call him courageous or reckless. But this time, Han Du did not embarrass him, but patiently explained to him: "Of course, relying entirely on this money can only keep you alive. In the academy, if you want to live well, you need to rely on your own brains. Go create. If you don’t have a mind, you can also rely on your own hands to get what you want. If you don’t have a mind and don’t want to rely on your hands, then you deserve to watch others eat meat, and you can only make gruel. Who It’s enough to make you stupid, why don’t you want to endure hardship?”
