Yang Dong was indeed a little surprised by Lin Chunqiu's sudden visit.
But Yang Dong didn't believe a word of the benefits promised by Lin Chunqiu.
Why did they ask the Ministry of Works to come over to help with repairs? They clearly wanted to get the blueprints of Lanxiang Academy and then carry out targeted destruction.
I'm not a fool, how could I let you succeed?
He thought so, but on the surface he looked grateful.
"It is a blessing for the students that Mr. Chief Assistant cares so much about Lanxiang Academy. Speaking of which, His Majesty is also very concerned about the situation of Lanxiang Academy."
Hearing Yang Dong suddenly mention the empress, Lin Chunqiu couldn't help but feel a flash of uneasiness on his cheeks.
But his expression was well hidden and not noticed by others.
Unexpectedly, Yang Dong had no intention of stopping, but continued:
"Your Majesty is busy with official duties and cannot come to visit the students. But Your Majesty often mentions that students are the future of Great Zhou!"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions on the faces of the students present were stagnant again. Then there was a flush on their cheeks.
What's more, his whole body was shaking slightly with excitement.
His Majesty actually valued the students so much that he even compared them to the future of Zhou Dynasty.
If they could meet such a wise king, how could they worry about Mingzhu secretly plotting against him?
Unlike the excited expressions of other students, Lin Chunqiu's eyes flashed with a cold light.
The reason why he had wasted so much talk just now was just to gain favorability among the students.
After all, these students will eventually enter the court. And if they have a good impression of themselves, it will be much easier to cultivate them in the future.
I just didn't expect that Yang Dong would be so cunning and move His Majesty out directly.
Are you kidding? Who can understand His Majesty's character as well as Lin Chunqiu?
The little emperor on the dragon throne could not say the words "The scholar is the future of the Zhou Dynasty".
Thinking of this, Lin Chunqiu took a deep look at Yang Dong.
This eunuch is really difficult to deal with.
Yang Dong seemed not to feel the gaze from Lin Chunqiu. He just slowly raised his palm, waved to the students present and said:
"Dear students, I have always been working for His Majesty."
"Since Your Majesty values students so much, I should also obey."
"It's getting late now. Why don't you, students, have your meal in the cafeteria of Lanxiang Academy? This meal will be blamed on me, Yang Dong."
As soon as these words came out, many students' eyes couldn't help but light up.
If you can get a meal for free, is there such a good thing in the world?
The eyes of many students who were really too poor to take the blame lit up slightly. But there is also another group of students, the students who have more money, but there is a bit of disdain in their eyes.
The so-called canteen means eating in a big pot, right?
Make a big pot of porridge and bake a big batch of pancakes. What's so delicious about this kind of meal?
It's better to go to Qunfang Tower and drink and have fun!
It's just that... the price of Qunfang House seems to have increased a lot recently.
Yang Dong didn't care what the students thought.
Anyway, the canteen is open today, so they can eat or not as they wish. You can't do it yourself, right?
Silently gathering his thoughts, Yang Dong looked at Lin Chunqiu beside him.
"Sir, Chief Assistant, would you like to go to the cafeteria with us for a quick bite?"
He originally thought that Lin Chunqiu would shake his head and refuse.
Unexpectedly, Lin Chunqiu smiled slightly, squinted and nodded.
"If that's the case, I'm sorry to bother you. I happened to be a little hungry, so I took advantage of Manager Yang's treasure house to have a few bites of food."
After saying that, he actually took the initiative to follow the student towards the cafeteria not far away.
When Yang Dong saw this, he was completely stunned.
This Lin Chunqiu, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?
At this moment, two teams of officers suddenly rushed in.
The leader was Mr. Yan who had just escaped.
When Mr. Yan saw Yang Dong's figure, it was like meeting an enemy, and he was extremely jealous.
"Gentlemen, that boy is Yang Dong. You just need to capture him."
As soon as these words came out, a look of hesitation flashed across the faces of the officials.
Naturally, they have heard of Yang Dong's name.
After all, the name of Great Zhou Shixian still has some influence. Besides, he is also a popular person around His Majesty.
I am a small policeman, do I really want to take action against such a high-ranking big shot?
A look of hesitation flashed in the eyes of many people.
When Mr. Yan saw this, he couldn't help but secretly cursed a piece of trash.
But on the surface, he still persuaded me with kind words:
"I think you all should understand, whose intention is this?"
"If there was no order from the governor, how could you all come with me?"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the detectives could not help but soften slightly.
Yes, when it comes to this matter, it is indeed an order from Lord Fu Yin.
However, they came here just for a routine inspection and did not receive a direct order to arrest anyone.
So the catcher bowed his hands towards Young Master Yan, wondering:
"Master Yan, what kind of person Yang Dong is, I don't think you need to remind me anymore."
"It's reasonable for me to come here for a routine inspection. But if I want to arrest someone... I'm afraid it's inappropriate, right?"
When Mr. Yan heard this, his face couldn't help but darken.
If possible, he would naturally want to arrest Yang Dong and torture him severely.
But the problem is just as the catcher said, if he really catches Yang Dong, he might really get into big trouble.
After all, he is the popular person in front of His Majesty.
But then he thought about it, the task that Mr. Sun gave him was not to capture Yang Dong.
As long as he can prevent Lanxiang Academy from successfully opening the mountain, his mission will be considered completed.
Thinking of this, he rolled his eyes and whispered:
"It's just now that I'm showing off, please don't be offended. In fact, what I mean is, why did you shut down Lanxiang Academy under the pretext of routine inspection?"
"Come to think of it, this is what Mr. Fu Yin meant, right?"
When the catcher heard this, he immediately smiled and nodded.
"If that's the case, it's our duty."
After he finished speaking, he planned to patrol in the direction of the teaching building. At this moment, a group of craftsmen came in from the gate and headed towards the teaching building.
Looking at the outer wall of the teaching building, the large areas of charred black were obviously traces of being burned by fire.
When Mr. Yan saw this, he suddenly felt happy.
It seemed that after he left, his accomplices still did something.
He almost burned down the teaching building of Lanxiang Academy, but his luck was a little bit worse.
But, that’s not important!
He thought so, and then looked at the group of craftsmen coming in from the door, and suddenly his heart became clear.
There is no doubt that these craftsmen must have been specially invited by Yang Dong to repair the teaching building!
Thinking of this, he immediately said:
"Brother Catcher, I think these people are the ones hired by Yang Dong to repair the teaching building."
"Brother, why don't you give me a quick cross-examination?"
Some people died, but not completely...
