Xiao Yuan was not a petty person. He walked forward casually and said, "Master Cai, you don't seem to have many guards at Yiyang Academy."
"This, yes, there are only six or seven people." Cai Jie said matter-of-factly.
"How can this work?" Xiao Yuan looked around: "The school is so big, what if some bad guys sneak in? These students are the future of Qin State, and among them, there may be the mainstay of the future. , In terms of defense, we must strengthen it.”
As he spoke, he pointed at the guard again: "Just like this guard, he is loyal to his duty. I think it is most suitable for him to be the captain after adding more people."
"Yes, I will obey the king's order." Cai Jie returned quickly.
The guard was dumbfounded again, then beamed with joy and hurriedly thanked him.
I thought that I had offended the king and that I might have a narrow escape from death, but I didn't expect that this would be the result.
Xiao Yuan waved his hand to signal him to get up, and then said: "From now on, you will be like today. You will not allow outsiders to enter the school without knowing their identity."
"Yes, please remember this!" the guard returned excitedly.
Later, accompanied by Zeng An and Cai Jie, Xiao Yuan visited the school again and was quite satisfied with the environment here.
The students were still studying hard, and Xiao Yuan did not let Cai Jie disturb them. After strolling around, he also looked at the sky and said, "It's almost noon. Let's have lunch today with the scholars at the school. "
"Ah, this..." Cai Jie looked embarrassed.
Xiao Yuan understood what he meant and said with a smile: "No extra meals, just in time, I want to see how your Yiyang Academy provides students with food."
"Yes, Your Majesty, please come this way." Cai Jie could only respond.
The scholars here come from all over the country, and most of them are far away from home. Of course, they have food and accommodation in the school.
At this point in time, meals have been prepared in the school cafeteria. After the group arrived here, Xiao Yuan looked at the environment while Cai Jie explained: "All students' meals are self-service. During the month, , there will be two or three meaty meals, but usually some vegetarian food.”
"Yes." Xiao Yuan nodded. This was because Yiyang was relatively wealthy. You know, in the war years, it was pretty good for ordinary people to have enough to eat.
A few people chose a seat and sat down. Xu Hu and Liang Yuan also went to get some food. Looking at the vegetarian food on the table, Zeng An couldn't help but said: "Young Master, how can you eat this with your body of ten thousand gold?" These things, in my humble opinion, we should go back to the county government, otherwise, we might as well let Mr. Cai arrange them now."
"Yes, sir." Cai Jie agreed.
"What are you talking about?" Xiao Yuan glanced at him dissatisfied, picked up the chopsticks and said: "You are so precious, these things can eat you to death?"
"This." Zeng An swallowed. As a county chief, he had never eaten a table full of vegetarian dishes, but facing Xiao Yuan, he didn't dare to talk back, so he could only echo.
Xu Hu said, "Young master is right. I think these are quite good. They have both oil and salt. When the world was in chaos and the people were in dire straits, I don't know how many people starved to death! You civil servants are just hypocritical!"
The generals under Xiao Yuan's command have all endured hardships. These people, fighting hard with weeds and bark, have not experienced what kind of years.
On the contrary, most civil servants came from scholars and had no experience in this aspect.
After hearing this, Zeng An could only smile and said: "Haha, the general taught you a lesson."
"Come, eat some vegetables, try them all." Xiao Yuan began to greet everyone, and took a bite of the vegetables. After eating, he said: "Well, the taste is still good. Now, although we can't have meat every meal, people's lives Conditions are gradually changing, and the first thing we have to get rid of is the previous situation of hunger and cold."
"Ah, the young master has a public heart and his civil and martial arts skills are so heart-wrenching for this young man." Zeng An took the opportunity to flatter him.
Xiao Yuan smiled heartily and joked: "Our county guards seem to only have good things to say."
"Oh, sir, I speak from the bottom of my heart."
"Okay, okay." Xiao Yuan quickly stopped.
A few people chatted while eating, and soon all the students gathered in the cafeteria.
Scholars in academies wear uniform scholar uniforms when studying. People come to the cafeteria in small groups. When they see Xiao Yuan and others, they can't help but look sideways, full of curiosity.
Not long after, the tables in the cafeteria were full. A student returned to his seat with the food. He first looked at Xiao Yuan, and then whispered to the people at the same table: "Look at that young man over there, I It turns out that his status is definitely not low, at least he is much older than the county guard."
"Oh? How can you see it?" Someone also looked over.
The student from before said in a low voice: "Look carefully, although there are a county governor and a bachelor at that table, they smile shyly from time to time, as if they are complimenting. From this, it can be seen that the young master in brocade is obviously the real owner. "
"Besides, the burly man next to him is probably a general."
"General?"
"Those who are inseparable from each other and have been on the battlefield for a long time have the aura to kill."
"Hiss, according to what you said, a general, as his entourage, accompanied by the county guard and the bachelor, then this young man has a lot of background."
"Of course, I dare to conclude that this person must be a prince."
"But here, I, the Marquis of Qin, only have two, not to mention a duke."
"These are not important. What is important is that this young master seems to be here for inspection. Our opportunity has come." The student said before, and then said to his companion: "Watch me go to fight for everyone's welfare."
"What do you want to do?"
The student said no more, put down his chopsticks, stood up and walked towards Xiao Yuan.
After approaching, he stretched out his sleeves, bowed his hands, and gave a standard salute: "I've seen the bachelor, I've seen the county governor."
After saying that, he also saluted Xiao Yuan, but he didn't address him because he didn't know his identity.
Seeing this, before Xiao Yuan could speak, Cai Jie frowned slightly and said, "What are you doing here? Don't disturb me. Eat in peace, your studies are the most important thing."
"Don't be upset, bachelor. The student just has something to say." The student said politely, and the etiquette was very good.
Just when Cai Jie was about to say something else, Xiao Yuan put down his bowl and chopsticks, looked at the student, and said with a gentle smile: "Just say it, don't worry about the left and right."
Yo! Hearing this, the student's energy perked up, and he guessed it right! He immediately faced Xiao Yuan, raised his hands and said seriously: "This young master, you know that everything in the school is fine, but there is one thing that makes many scholars suffer."
"Oh?" Xiao Yuan glanced at Cai Jie subconsciously, then looked at the student, gesturing for him to continue.
