"Yes." Wang Yuanji nodded with an ugly face. He didn't want to trouble the teacher with these things, but he thought it was better for the teacher to know these things than not.
Han Du slammed the table loudly and said angrily: "With their abilities, they can have enough food and clothing with just snacks, why do they do such a heinous thing?"
Seeing that the teacher also hated this, Wang Yuanji shook his head and sighed: "Teacher, there is no way to satisfy people's desires. These people may not have the ability to make money, but they are more keen on benefiting themselves at the expense of others."
Wang Yuanji's words were cryptic, but Han Du understood them clearly. What he means is that some people think they are superior to others and even take pleasure in bullying the people.
"Since they regard the people as stupid dogs, there is no need for the imperial court to be polite to them. Catch them when they need to be caught, kill them when they need to be killed, and never tolerate their adopted daughter's behavior." Han Du slammed his fist on the table, "You have done a great job. Okay, from now on, if any academy official breaks the law, all the crimes will be increased by one level."
"Teacher, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, right?" Wang Yuanji said quickly.
If he was just a little open now, he would be drenched in saliva. If he was severely punished, wouldn't he be said to have no regard for his old feelings?
Han Du had a firm attitude and directly waved his hand to interrupt Wang Yuanji, "Don't worry, I have my support, who can do anything to you? Those who scold you, I will expel them all from the academy and leave some black sheep behind. What’s the use!”
"Teacher!" Wang Yuanji was shocked. He didn't expect the teacher's reaction to be so huge and intense.
He even felt a little regretful in his heart. He shouldn't have said this to the teacher if he had known this.
"I have made up my mind, you don't need to persuade me anymore." Han Du said firmly.
Wang Yuanji only felt difficulty breathing. After this incident spread, he didn't know how big a disturbance it would cause.
However, the teacher is still in charge of the academy, so he is not worried that the students will cause trouble.
After making up his mind, Han Du's anger calmed down a little. He turned his head to look at Wang Yuanji and said in a calm tone: "You mentioned this just now because you think the Imperial College can play a role in this matter?"
Seeing that the teacher got back to business, Wang Yuanji quickly calmed down and nodded: "Yes, teacher. Officials from the Imperial College may not be as talented as those from the academy, and they may even be rigid and rigid, but they are not without merit."
Han Du thought for a moment and quickly understood what Wang Yuanji meant, "What you want to say is that they can just supervise the officials who came from the academy to prevent them from making mistakes?"
Even though Han Du just wanted to impose a first-class severe punishment on officials who were born in the academy, they thought that Han Du had no feelings for them. On the contrary, Han Du had deeper feelings for them than Wang Yuanji.
This is like a child who has been raised with great difficulty, how can he have no feelings? It's just that they did evil things and Han Du had to harden his heart. .
"That's right." Wang Yuanji nodded.
Han Du thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, "This is indeed a good idea."
Nowadays, the Imperial College and the Academy are completely at odds with each other, and students from both sides can't help but mock each other when they meet. If it gets more intense, conflicts may even break out. If the officials of the Imperial College were allowed to supervise the officials of the academy, they would be able to burst out with the greatest enthusiasm without having to spur them on.
As for the officials who came from the academy, most of them would probably restrain themselves a lot when they knew that there were people from the Imperial College supervising them.
It's indeed a good idea.
Han Du and Wang Yuanji talked a lot more, including court affairs and his own life. Finally, Han Du asked the family to prepare a banquet. The master and apprentice had not seen each other for a long time. It was not easy for them to get together, and of course they had to have a drink.
The next day, a person who surprised Han Du came to the door.
It was Li Shou.
Someone led him to the lobby, and Han Du slowly walked over after putting on his official robe.
By now, Li Shou had poured a whole pot of tea into his stomach.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Li." Han Du laughed and walked into the lobby. He said with a smile as he walked: "I was delayed for a moment.
, but it made Mr. Li wait for a long time. "
Li Shou was very angry, but he couldn't get angry. What do you mean you were delayed for a moment? Is this a moment? This is more than an hour.
Forget about the delay. If Han Du didn't mention it, he would just pretend it didn't happen, but Han Du insisted on bringing it up.
Doesn't this rub salt into his wounds?
"Master Li?" Han Du couldn't help but ask when he saw Li Shou's lips were closed and he was stunned not knowing what he was thinking.
"Master." Li Shou turned around and saluted Han Du.
Han Du nodded slightly, accepting it, and asked directly: "Sir, what do you want to do when you come to see me today?"
Li Shou was not happy to begin with, and he was ridiculed by Han Du. He did not want to be polite to Han Du anymore, and said directly: "I came here today to beg you to let the Imperial College live."
Li Shou pestered Zhu Yunye for a long time, but in the end he didn't get a result. He had no choice but to beg Han Du with a shy face.
Resigning but not being able to resign, the Imperial College was in decline. If he couldn't ask Han Du to let him go, then he would be condemned for being responsible for the decline of the Imperial College.
Seeing that Li Shou was about to kneel down towards him, Han Du quickly stood up and supported him, "Master Li, what are you doing? Tell me what you have to say."
Seeing Han Du come to support him, Li Shou breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Han Du hadn't wanted to finish the matter yet, and there was still a chance for communication.
"I beg you, sir, to give me a clear path to the Imperial College!"
Han Du helped Li Shou sit down on a chair, glanced at him, shook his head and laughed: "You are the Imperial College's sacrificial wine, and you are asking me to give you the path to the Imperial College. What's going on?"
"My father-in-law is very talented. If you are willing to give me some advice, Li Shou will only look forward to my father-in-law's guidance in the future." Li Shou was willing to risk everything. As long as he didn't have to bear the infamy, he would give up anything.
Han Du was silent, and after a pause of more than ten seconds, he asked tentatively: "Does Mr. Li think that the Imperial College is inferior to the academy?"
Li Shou let out a long sigh. Although he didn't want to admit it, this was the truth.
Especially after the academy set up rewards and opened it to the common people, the Imperial College was completely at a disadvantage compared with the academy.
The reward of 100,000 yuan is so attractive. This alone can attract more than 80% of the students to the academy. With fewer and fewer students, how will the Imperial College compete with the academies in the future?
Moreover, even the reputation among the common people now favors the Academy, and the Imperial College has no hope.
"The Academy... is indeed unique. Now it has completely overshadowed the Imperial Academy. I'm afraid it won't be long before..." Li Shouyue said more and more sadly. After all, he studied in the Imperial Academy from the beginning, and also in the Imperial Academy after becoming an official, and then step by step. He became a sacrificial wine, and his feelings for the Imperial College were quite deep.
