After hearing the reason, Song Mu roughly knew what was going on.
Master Yan Fu finally made a step forward in strength in the past few years, so he rekindled his desire to climb the literary world, and asked His Majesty, and Your Majesty agreed, but still kept him in Chang'an.
As for whether there are other reasons for this, Song Mu naturally doesn't know, but according to Master Yan's nature, maybe he can really go further in the future.
After explaining the matter, Huo Tai had a slightly depressed look on his face. When Song Mu saw that the other party looked sleep deprived as usual, he also asked immediately.
"Master Huo, do you think there is anything wrong with this?"
Hearing Song Mu's question, Huo Tai nodded helplessly and said to Song Mu.
"Actually, it's the freshness of Tianwen Magazine. Now that Mr. Yan has resigned, everyone's work has not changed. It's just that I don't know why. The Tianwen Magazine published this year is not as popular as it was at the beginning."
"We have been racking our brains every month, but no change has been seen."
Saying this, Huo Tai suddenly looked at Song Mu with interest and said with some expectation.
"But Mr. Song has returned to Chang'an now, would you be interested in contributing to my "Tianwen Magazine"?"
After hearing this, Song Mu immediately smiled and nodded, and then talked about going to the imperial city today. Knowing that Song Mu would be stationed at Tianwen Magazine, Huo Tai immediately had a smile on his face.
"That's great, Mr. Song. With you joining our "World Wenjian", I think that after you come here, students and people all over the world will be inspired by the news again, haha."
Saying this, many Jinshi editors also heard this. They all greeted Song Mu this time, especially after seeing Song Mu's current level of strength, and they were even more respectful.
Song Mu also had a chat with everyone. Everyone learned that Song Mu had just arrived in Chang'an today, so they did not do much to persuade him to stay, and only made an appointment to get together some other day.
After Song Mu returned home, he also told Gu Qingqing about the current arrangement. Gu Qingqing naturally supported it and felt that it was inappropriate for Song Mu to return to Chang'an and attract so much attention for a while.
Song Mu did not talk about the next arrangements for the two sons, especially Song Huaitong's enrollment. Not long after the night conversation, the two of them were tired and fell asleep.
The next day, Song Mu went to the morning court again after many years.
And because of Song Mu's current state, although everyone still didn't know what official position Song Mu held, he still stood in front of the palace during the morning court, which also attracted the attention of many officials.
The news of Song Mu's return to Chang'an had spread yesterday, and there was a lot of discussion in Chang'an City, but not many changes had happened yet.
What the officials saw was that Song Mu was in high spirits now, and they were even talking about what he would do in Chang'an after returning.
When they arrived at the palace to announce Song Mu's face as a saint and announce Song Mu's appointment, many officials also raised eyebrows, and when they thought about the official position, they also had more calculations.
Some people were relieved and some were worried, but Song Mu was calm about it.
After the morning court dispersed, Song Mu did not need to leave the imperial city. He immediately went to the East Palace under the leadership of the eunuch.
In a warm pavilion in the East Palace, when Song Mu came here, there were already several adults gathered here.
Here are the officials specially arranged by Gongyuan for the children of the royal family. They usually teach the Four Books and Five Classics, and the Six Arts of the Gentleman. In the future, these officials will either serve as the prince's team or serve as officials in the Ministry of Rites.
It was a good job in any case, but meeting the unruly prince and his relatives would inevitably cause a headache.
Several middle-aged officials in the Nuan Pavilion also saw Song Mu coming in, and they quickly stood up and handed over their hands. Song Mu also recognized these adults, all of whom were the top performers in the palace examinations in previous years.
Before everyone could sit down again, another figure walked into the Nuan Pavilion. This person had white hair, a slightly stooped figure, and showed his age. People around him stood up and held their hands.
"Good morning, boss."
Song Mu also quickly handed over his hand, but now he knew who this person was.
The current crown prince and tutor, Qin Gang, is at the level of a bachelor.
This was the first time for Song Mu to see this old man who was rumored to be extremely knowledgeable, and he bowed his hands respectfully. However, when Qin Taifu came in and nodded with everyone, he also looked at Song Mu.
At first, he was attracted by Song Mu Hanlin's realm, but when he saw Song Mu's face clearly, a trace of surprise flashed across Taifu Qin's face, and he immediately raised his hands towards Song Mu and said.
"I think your Excellency is Song Jingzhao, the number one scholar in the Song Dynasty. You are indeed an outstanding talent. At such an age, you have such strength. In the world, few people can compare with the number one scholar."
"The master is so complimentary. Song just made a breakthrough by chance. It is said that his literary experience is short. In front of the master and all the adults, he is really a master of his own tricks."
Everyone's expressions changed slightly, but most of them showed a smile, but Master Qin was smiling and shaking his head.
"I heard that Mr. Song is a humble man. It seems that he is so this time."
"It's just that we are giving lectures here in the East Palace. We are all responsible for solving confusions. Only by having confidence in our literary minds can we solve other people's confusions."
After saying that, Master Qin looked at the officials behind him and asked immediately.
"Everyone, what is Master Song's lecture next? Do you have any good suggestions?"
Everyone hesitated for a moment, and then someone came out and said with his hands in hand.
"Master Song has a great literary talent, and he was ranked in the Three Yuan Dynasty. He must be proficient in the imperial examination. Perhaps he can help His Highness solve the confusion in the imperial examination?"
When the man said this, Song Mu quickly handed over his hand, but Qin Taifu shook his head, looked at Song Mu and said.
"It is enough for Mr. Li to explain these clever things. I think Mr. Song is very proficient in poetry and poetry, and the royal family members are also confused about this, so it can be done."
Everyone also nodded, and Song Mu naturally smiled and held his hands.
"I will obey the Taifu's arrangements in everything."
Grand Tutor Qin immediately smiled and nodded, and then spoke to Song Mu.
"In that case, let's settle it like this first. However, I happen to have a class today, so Mr. Song can go with me. It's also a good idea to see how this royal child learns."
Song Mu naturally nodded humbly, and then everyone comforted Song Mu. Some people said that Song Mu had a serious face, extensive knowledge, and would be able to teach easily.
But some people say that most of the poems and songs taught by Song Mu should be done while taking advantage of the mood, rather than doing it spontaneously, which is not a problem for Song Mu.
During this period, there was a hint of flattery and respect. Song Mu did not resist it too much. He just humbly asked for some etiquette and some things to pay attention to, and followed Taifu Qin out of the Nuan Pavilion.
Arriving at a large warm pavilion on the other side of the East Palace, Song Mu saw many children and teenagers staying there.
Seeing Tai Fu Qin arrive, everyone was sitting upright. Song Mu looked around and saw that most of them were children in their teens. Only Li Dong was slightly mature now, but he was still sitting among them.
Song Mu's appearance behind Taifu Qin made these people confused. Taifu Qin only mentioned Song Mu. When everyone learned that it was the famous Song Mu, some were amazed and others were disdainful.
But as Master Qin coughed, everyone sat upright with serious expressions.
It seems that these people are also intimidated by the majesty of Qin Taifu.
The content that Taifu Qin summarized is the so-called interpretation of the Four Books, and what he summarizes today is "The Great Learning".
It's just that the teachings of Grand Tutor Qin were upright and rigorous, but everyone seemed a little unable to keep up with them, and felt even more boring. Only Prince Li Dong was attentive, but the other royal disciples all looked sluggish, and had to sit upright, all too busy. Somewhat frowning.
Song Mu was also sitting on one side at the moment, listening with great interest.
After all, Taifu Qin was a bachelor and had studied Confucianism for many years, so the contents contained many insights that even Song Mu found new.
At that moment, Taifu Qin happened to see the contents of "Eight Chapters of the University".
Taifu Qin asked Li Dong to explain his opinions, but the prince's answer seemed not to be very satisfactory to Taifu Qin.
Suddenly, Grand Tutor Qin looked at Song Mu and said.
"Song Lecturer, I wonder what other explanation you think there is for this?"
