The autumn rain in Yingtian City lasted for several days.

The news that the DPRK was planning to build meritorious mausoleums in Zhongshan and Tangshan also spread to both inside and outside the DPRK.

This rain seems to commemorate the passing of Duke Xin, and also echoes the court's kindness to its heroes.

The autumn rain that lasts for several days always brings with it a sense of autumn sadness.

The cabinet also wrote a letter on the last day to respond to Tianfu, asking to beware of the autumn news and to prevent the capital from being blocked.

Ying Tianfu naturally bowed his head and obeyed orders, but after closing the yamen, a group of people sneered at the unnecessary writing of the cabinet.

Not to mention that the capital is located in the south of the Yangtze River, relying on the Yangtze River and having many flood discharge channels. Even the new water channels of the Yangtze River and Xuanwu Lake that Yingtian Mansion has been digging are enough to ensure the safety of the capital.

"We dug and dug and dug, and dug a long water channel beside Xuanwu Lake."

"Damn it, can't the court see what we are doing?"

In the Yingtian Mansion Yamen, the judge cursed the cabinet with some annoyance.

Comrade Ying Tianfu stretched his head and looked out the window. The continuous autumn rain finally stopped last night, and the sky outside became clear and cloudless.

[Currently used, it is the most complete and best-used app for listening to books. It integrates 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of sounds, and even supports offline reading.

As you can imagine, although no one was killed that night, the crime of dereliction of duty and slackness in Yingtian Mansion was firmly on his back.

The cabinet issued a written inquiry, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate issued a letter asking questions. Even the official master of the Imperial College came here to explain why Yingtian Mansion was not optimistic about the Qinhuai River.

?

When Zou Xueyu received the official documents the next day, he was full of questions.

The cabinet's drafting is appropriate, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate is also within reason. Why did your Imperial College come to question Ying Tianfu? Isn’t it your Imperial College’s responsibility to take good care of students?

Zou Xueyu can be said to be full of anger, but has nowhere to vent, so he can only bear the blame.

At that time, the face of Yingtian Mansion was all thrown into the Qinhuai River because of those bastards from the Imperial College.

At this moment, when the judge mentioned it again, Zou Xueyu's ears couldn't help but feel hot, and he snorted: "Send someone! Keep an eye on these rabbits for me... Jiansheng! Tell the shopkeepers on the other side of the Qinhuai River who will be here tonight If you dare to sell wine to people from the Imperial College, I will seal their doors tomorrow!"

Zou Xueyu was really furious, fearing that the last bit of Yingtian Mansion's dignity would be wiped out by those bastards from the Imperial College.

Ying Tiantongzhi looked serious at the side, cupped his hands and said: "The official will send a letter to Jiangning County later to inform the Qinhuai store. Then he asked Shangyuan County to order three groups of guards to go to the vicinity of the Imperial College."

Zou Xueyu nodded heavily: "If the grandson goes to the Imperial College, there will definitely be guards from the palace. I don't have to worry about what happens inside the Imperial College, but no one is allowed to cause chaos outside the Imperial College!"

Zou Xueyu swore in his heart that as long as those bastards in the Imperial College dared to cause trouble again today, he would seal the door of the Imperial College.

If the imperial court is dissatisfied, the worst possible outcome will be that he will be relieved of his official duties as the prefect of Yingtian, and then he will be able to dig ditches and repair wharves and freight distribution centers with peace of mind.

"Go! Make arrangements now!"

Zou Xueyu stood up and looked at everyone.



"Going to Shanglinyuan Prison?"

"Why did Xie Hanlin choose to teach at Shanglinyuan Supervisor?"

"Let's go, let's go. This is a request from the cabinet. Unless we don't want to continue studying in the Imperial College, who can not go?"

While everyone in Yingtian Mansion was still embarrassed about losing face the past few days, the Imperial College supervisors had already changed into their Confucian uniforms for attending classes, and walked out of the Imperial College gate in their respective classrooms under the leadership of the Imperial College instructors.

There were no colorful flags or slogans today.

And with the foreshadowing of the last time the Imperial College paraded around the streets to praise their achievements, today the Imperial College once again came out in force, and it could no longer arouse the attention and curiosity of the people in the capital.

After all, the Great Ming Yingtian City at this time was the largest and most prosperous city in the world.

Especially in these years, as the Yi European Commissioner conferred by the imperial court returned to Europe, and then followed the navy of the Ming Dynasty back to Beijing, Yingtian City has been accepting countless Yi merchants from Europe every day.

Every day in Yingtian City, countless lively things happen.

When the supervisors left the Imperial College, they walked south along Chengxian Street, turned east to Pearl Bridge, then east through Xishibawei Street, and then turned northwest. Walk along the Dongda Screen Wall near Fujun Youwei, all the way to Taipingmen Street.

When you walk out of Taipingmen, you can see the sparkling Xuanwu Lake at a glance.

Outside the Taiping Gate are the three legal departments of the Ming Dynasty, the Duchayuan, Dali Temple, and the official office of the Ministry of Punishment. There is also the Temple of Earth, as well as government facilities such as Gyeonggi Province and Yingtianbancang.

It's just that the Imperial College went out of the city today, not to go to the Sanfa Si to observe the government, nor to go to Xuanwu Lake for a tour.

After exiting Taiping Gate, a group of teachers and students pressed against the city wall, turned east, and continued walking along the foot of Zhongshan Mountain.

After passing the Yingtian City Wall outside Longguang Mountain, Pipa Lake, which falls under the jurisdiction of Shanglinyuan, has appeared in front of the teachers and students of the Imperial College.

A low courtyard wall seems to be just to tell people that inside the courtyard wall is the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty Shanglin Garden.

At the open courtyard gate under the courtyard wall, officials from Shanglin Yuan Prison had been waiting for a long time.

"Everyone, it is our honor to have Mr. Jie Ge teach Mr. Lin Yuan as supervisor today. We will prepare the necessary coursework according to Mr. Ge's needs."

, please follow me. "

Shanglinyuan Supervisor is now a popular yamen in the imperial court.

Just the presence of Shaoshi Yuan attracted countless people who wanted to be transferred to the Shanglin Garden Prison as officials.

It's just that the imperial government office has always been a mess. In the past two years, the Shanglinyuan Supervisory Committee has only filled one or two officials.

However, I heard that Supervisor Shanglin Yuan recruited many people who were good at farming and hired many farmers around Yingtian.

It is also the wish of many Imperial College students who come here to become an official in Linyuan Prison.

Today, Mr. Xie Ge is teaching at Shanglinyuan Supervisor, and we may also meet Mr. Yuan. Now I saw that Supervisor Lin Yuan had already arranged everything, and even arranged for people to wait for a long time.

All the supervisors couldn't help but become eager, and their interest in Mr. Xie Ge's classes was about to begin.

Even Hu Jian, the current Imperial College minister, is very pleased. It is a blessing for the Imperial College to have cabinet ministers give lectures to the Imperial College students, especially in the past few years when the Martial Arts School has been leading the charge.

Now that they had just arrived at Shanglinyuan Prison, the other party had already prepared everything they needed for their studies. This had to move Hu Ji'an, who was promoted from Jingzhou Xuezheng to Imperial College Jiejie in the 24th year of Hongwu.

Hu Jian can be considered an old Neo-Confucian. He was originally a Jinshi in economics during the Yuan and Ming dynasties. He studied in Jingzhou, Hejian Prefecture for many years. In addition, he was already old. He should have been deprived of his official position and returned to him during the imperial reforms in the past few years. Township.

It's just that the imperial examination fraud occurred last time, and the imperial court reconciled the north and the south, and maintained fairness and justice, which made Hu Jian, an old Neo-Confucian, understand that the royal family cared about the country. Later, there were many turmoils in the DPRK. Hu Jian, an old Neo-Confucian, always stayed out of the affairs and concentrated on teaching.

Speaking of which, Hu Ji'an, who lives in Nanchang Prefecture, Jiangxi Province, had repeatedly sent letters and messages during the previous turmoil in the court, warning his old friends in Jiangxi Province to put the world's commonwealth first.

It's just those people who are always more concerned with their own gains and losses.

In recent years, martial arts halls have become more and more prosperous, and the imperial court has seen that it pays more and more attention to martial artists.

Hu Ji'an was helpless and focused more on the studies of the supervisors in the Imperial College.

Hu Ji'an, who had already turned gray-haired, looked at the supervisors of Shanglin Garden behind the courtyard wall, and put his hands forward: "Thank you, supervisors of Shanglin Yuan, for the education of our country is related to the country. I am grateful to you for paying so much attention to it."

Regardless of the starting point.

The white-haired Guozijian offered wine to Hu Jian, the Prime Minister of the Imperial Academy. He could be so polite, and the officials from Shanglinyuan who were waiting here were also very respectful.

Knowing how the officials were arranged in the Shanglinyuan prison today, he even whispered: "Jiujiu is ridiculous. Today, Mr. Jie Ge is teaching the students, which is a major event for the imperial prison. How dare we neglect it. I just hope Jiujiu knows, Today, the elder of the pavilion has chosen me to teach, which is very different from the past."

Hu Jian raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Xie Hanlin is teaching today. Is it any different?"

The official of Shanglinyuan Prison opened his mouth, but still suppressed the desire to inform in his heart: "You will know when the prison students are brought in after the wine ceremony. In addition... many Jin Yiwei have arrived in this Yamen, and there are also many Emperor's soldiers. Drag everywhere."

"Is your grandson really coming?" Hu Ji'an's eyes twitched, and he was a little moved by the rumors about the court in the past few days.

Everyone knew that Taisun loved the martial arts lecture hall and would go there every now and then.

And what about the Imperial College?

Hu Jian shook his head.

Just don’t mention it!

If today, Xie Hanlin is teaching and the grandson really comes, it will be of great significance to the Imperial College.

At least it shows that Taisun, the crown prince of the country, did not really value military affairs over literature and wanted to do anything militarily.

The official who was greeted by the Shanglin Garden Supervisor nodded slightly: "It's better to follow the sacrificial wine inside. I think Mr. Xiege will be here soon."

Hu Jian suppressed the expectations in his heart and turned back to look at the prison guards behind him: "Be aware of etiquette, proceed with caution, and follow me in."

A group of people from the Imperial College Wu Yangyang filed through the courtyard gate and entered the Shanglin Garden Prison. It's about to begin. Today's lecture will be an unusual one for cabinet ministers.

The crowd entered Shanglinyuan Prison in large numbers.

Enter the eye.

The sandy land next to Lake Biwa has been reclaimed to create a larger area, which continues all the way to the front lake.

And in this sandy land, rows of sweet potatoes and lush vines covered the entire sandy land.

Under the straw shed next to the sweet potato field, piles of farm tools have been piled up. If you look closely, you can see that they are all useful for digging and harvesting sweet potatoes.

Outside the thatched shed, there were also many officials from Shanglin Yuanjian and hired farmers waiting, looking at the teachers and students of the Imperial College who were walking by.

The official leading the way in front of Hu Jian also led everyone under the thatched shed and stopped moving.

Hu Jian had already had countless ideas in his mind, but he never thought that Shanglinyuan Supervisor, or rather Xie Hanlin, would have such an arrangement.

Hu Jian couldn't help but said: "Where is today's Xie Hanlin's coursework?"

"Exactly here."

"here……"

Hu Jian looked at the piles of farm tools in the thatched shed, still a little unsure.

The supervisors looked at the soil-covered farm tools and then at the sweet potato vines that had begun to wither and turn yellow. Many of them had already noticed it and couldn't help but swallow their throats.

It shouldn’t be!

Not so!

Certainly not!

The official of Shanglinyuan Supervisor who was waiting under the pergola cleared his throat and said: "Cabinet statement, today Mr. Xie Ge is giving a class to Supervisor Shanglinyuan. It is the time when the sweet potatoes are ripe. They are waiting to be excavated and harvested and put into the cellar. I ordered Supervisor Shanglinyuan to prepare farm tools." "The Imperial College student holds farm tools, digs sweet potatoes, works closely with mulberry farmers, and knows the country well."

Hu Jian frowned. If this was a requirement of the cabinet, then naturally he couldn't say anything.

It was unexpected that Xie Hanlin's teaching turned into a student supervisor digging sweet potatoes, but he could not stop the pro-farming mulberry thing.

And when those supervisors heard that the cabinet actually asked them to dig sweet potatoes, and when they saw this large and endless field of sweet potatoes, some of them started to have stars in their eyes.

Someone asked in a low voice: "Am I the only one waiting to dig the sweet potatoes?"

"According to the cabinet document, only supervisors are digging sweet potatoes. There are hundreds of acres of sweet potatoes here in Shanglinyuan Supervisor. Looking back, all the supervisors dug them up today and sent them to the cellar to save seeds for the next year."

I finally got the answer that was accurate but not what I wanted.

All the prison guards’ eyes widened and their mouths grew wide.

Oh my God!

How long will it take to dig such a big sweet potato field?

It was promised that Xie Hanlin would teach, but where was he?

It was promised that the grandson would come in person, but where was he?
