Chapter 180: Debating? How can it be more important than making money! (Subscribe)

Then an imperial decree came from Xiyuan.

Three days later, all officials in Beijing took a day off.

All the officials in the capital knew that this was a special decree from the emperor, asking them to go to Changping.

Although I got an extra day of rest.

But all the officials in the court knew that they had to leave the city and go to Changping that day.

It was impossible for the emperor to directly declare his support for Yan Shaoting.

But in this way, it undoubtedly shows how much they are optimistic about Yan Shaoting.

The entire court, from top to bottom.

Who else could be like Yan Shaoting, who could allow the imperial court to rest for a whole day just because of a debate among the literati?

There is only one person who is strict and kind.

The Sacred Heart is the only one who favors me.

Countless officials were filled with emotion.

of course.

In addition to those who lamented the emperor's favor for Yan Shaoting, there were also people waiting to watch the excitement and see Yan Shaoting's miserable defeat in front of the group of famous scholars who came to Beijing.

And in Prince Yu’s Mansion.

When the news that the court would be on holiday three days later reached Prince Yu's Mansion.

Prince Yu Zhu Zaigui stood up immediately.

His movements were a bit too big, and startled the little kid who had just fallen asleep nearby, and he started crying loudly.

Concubine Li gave Prince Yu a resentful look.

Zhu Zaigui looked at the person who sent back the message and waved his hand.

Subsequently.

Zhu Zaigui paced back and forth under the gaze of Concubine Li.

Concubine Li was not in a hurry. She just silently watched Prince Yu's face changing constantly, while reaching out to comfort the awakened little kid.

Wait until the crying in the house stops.

Zhu Zaigui stopped.

He glared at Concubine Li.

Princess Li smiled: "What's wrong, my lord?"

"If I leave the city, will it be considered as leaving the capital without permission?"

Princess Li's eyes moved around and her face was full of smiles.

"Shuntian Prefecture and 24 counties are all part of the capital. How can it be considered as the capital without permission?"

At this moment, Concubine Li was already clear in her mind.

Prince Yu also wants to go to Changping in three days.

Zhu Zaiqi nodded: "You are right."

After saying this, he continued pacing.

After a while.

Zhu Zaigui seemed to have made up his mind.

"This king thinks that in three days, during the Changping debate, as Master Yan's student, the prince should go and help Master Yan."

Concubine Li smiled, her eyes full of tenderness: "The prince is still young. If he goes to Changping, I'm afraid the prince will have to bring people to protect him."

Zhu Zaigui was delighted, but said with a straight face: "What should we do? I was originally thinking of asking you to bring people to accompany the prince."

Seeing Prince Yu like this.

Princess Li could only hold back her laughter.

"I am just a woman, how can I show my face in public? When the time comes, there will be scholars and great scholars in the court, civil and military officials, wouldn't it be embarrassing for the prince?"

Zhu Zaigui was hesitant and said, "Then I will go too?"

Concubine Li nodded: "The prince must go, and bring the prince with him."

"This is not good."

Zhu Zaigui spoke hesitantly.

Concubine Li said, "When the time comes, the prince will hold the prince in his arms, so he won't need to explain it. He will show his face in front of people, and the court and the people will know that the prince is enthusiastic about classics, and the prince will also concentrate on studying in the future."

As King Jing left the capital.

With the birth of the little brat.

In fact, the Ming Dynasty’s foundation was only missing that one imperial edict.

At this time, if Prince Yu showed up in public and showed some attitude, it would not be considered an act of usurpation.

Only then did Zhu Zaigui nod.

But his face still showed embarrassment.

"In that case, I will take the prince to Changping in three days."

Concubine Li smiled and said, "It's time to let the prince see the world."

Zhu Zaiqi hummed: "This is what I mean."

……

When everyone was waiting for the Changping debate three days later.

Yan Shaoting has quietly left the city.

Took people to Changping.

Ever since that day when he learned that there was a rumor in the capital that Yan Shaoting was going to become the master of the School of Mind, Xu Wei quietly returned to Changping.

Now more than ten days have passed.

When Yan Shaoting arrived in Changping, he saw that the whole Changping had become completely different.

The entire road extending from the official road to Changping was repaved.

Compacted roadbed and paved with fine gravel.

The trees on both sides of the road, which had been growing for who knows how many years, were also specially pruned.

Look from a distance.

Every tree is the same height and size.

At the entrance to the official road, there were several Changping people guarding it.

The intersection was blocked by a horizontal bar, and anyone approaching was subject to inspection.

Yan Shaoting's arrival was naturally unimpeded and no inspection was required.

As they set foot on the road to Changping, feeling the cool breeze blowing down from Yanshan Mountain, Yan Shaoting couldn't help but speed up.

We arrived at Changping, which was rebuilt around Jiashan and the academy.

Almost every intersection you can see is guarded by someone.

On the road leading to Changping, big red banners had already been hung in advance.

There are five big characters in the letter.

'Changping welcomes you!'

Entered Changping.

Every household was cleaning their houses, even their roofs.

On the road, the village head and the head of the village were cleaning with the chief, deputy chief and firemen.

Everyone had a warm smile on their face and was full of energy.

The news of Yan Shaoting's arrival in Changping was quickly spread to the academy and other courtyards through these people.

Xu Wei had arrived early in the morning and was waiting at the gate of the academy with his men.

Seeing Yan Shaoting riding towards him, he hurried forward to lead the horse.

Yan Shaoting turned over and got off the horse.

Xu Wei had already said: "According to the instructions of the tutor, all of us in Changping have taken action." Yan Shaoting nodded and waved his hand.

"Let's go to the mountain and check the situation first."

When everyone reached the mountain, there was already a well-renovated pavilion from which one could overlook the entire Changping scenery.

The entire Jiashan Mountain, except for the side near the villa which has not been developed and is left as a hidden cover, basically all other places have hiking trails and resting places.

Looking out from the mountain.

There was originally an empty lot not far from the academy, but now there are temporary sheds and tall chimneys.

In the middle of the open space, there were countless tables, chairs and benches.

On the other side a huge platform was built.

It looks like it was prepared for a certain drama troupe.

The entire Shuyuan Street is divided into sections, but no one knows what their functions are.

further away.

The entire fertile field has turned from green to yellow, forming a golden ocean.

On the hillside next to the academy, the sweet potato seedlings that had been planted earlier have now covered the entire ground, with their branches and leaves standing tall and strong.

A few children were guarding in the shade of the hillside.

Yan Shaoting said that this piece of land could provide food for everyone in Changping, so the children in Changping became the guardians of this land.

Xu Wei said with a smile: "We are running out of time, but we have invited all the famous acrobatic troupes in Shuntian Prefecture to come here and they will start performing on Shuyuan Street in three days. In addition, there is also a Kunqu opera troupe from Jiangnan, and they will also perform on stage for a whole day."

Yan Shaoting nodded, looking towards the capital with a long gaze.

Debate?

I have never said this myself.

From the beginning to the end, all he said was that Changping would be waiting in three days.

He said, "How are the cooking skills of each family? Be careful not to have any duplication. If the food they make is really the same, then they can merge into one and split the profits equally."

What we are talking about now is the open space next to the academy where sheds are built.

This area is specially prepared for people in Changping who can cook all kinds of food.

Xu Wei nodded and said, "I have already told them, and according to what the tutor said, all the food is made from things produced in Changping."

As he spoke, Xu Wei had already handed out a list.

It records in detail what food will be available and will appear here in three days.

Yan Shaoting looked at them one by one.

After confirming that it was correct, he returned the account book to Xu Wei.

"Tell everyone again that those who come will be the important people in the capital, maybe even members of the royal family will come. The food must be clean, and the price must be fair."

"If anyone dares to bid a random price and wants to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune, he will be kicked out and will no longer need to do these things. If there are people in the family who work in the factory, they will also be kicked out."

Xu Wei nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, tutor, we have already informed everyone. We don't need to tell them, everyone is holding their breath, just to let everyone in the capital see how good our Changping is."

See everything is arranged.

Yan Shaoting looked at Xu Wei and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Wenqing, for taking care of these trivial matters."

Xu Wei shook his head, his face filled with an excited smile: "Although it is not yet time, students can already imagine how many people will come here in three days.

"It's worth it even if it's a bit hard if I can help the people make money.

If it weren't for the tutor's brilliant ideas, how could the common people earn this much money?"

Yan Shaoting smiled but said nothing.

Compared to the so-called debate that has spread outside.

Where making money is important.

Think of this.

Yan Shaoting also warned, "Tell the people here not to let anyone in during the next few days. We need to whet everyone's appetite and make everyone in the capital look forward to the day."

Xu Wei nodded in agreement.

Yan Shaoting added, "After three days, everyone who comes in will be given ten cents per person, and no one is allowed to pay less."

Xu Wei smiled and replied, "I have already discussed this matter with Changping Prefecture. When the time comes, the ticket money mentioned by the tutor will be distributed to the Changping Prefecture government at the rate of three cents per person. Tomorrow they will send people over to patrol and prevent anyone from sneaking in from outside."

Yan Shaoting nodded.

"Watch out, don't let even a fly in here!"

……

"Hey! Kid!"

"Is that Changping Academy over there?"

In the fields not far from the official road.

Several young men dressed as scholars stood together on the edge of the field and questioned the children who stopped them.

Zhou Goudan nodded: "It's the academy, what are you going to do?"

"We are naturally going to the academy."

Ma Xiaoer, who was standing by, said immediately: "The academy has issued a statement that no one is allowed to enter our Changping these days."

Xu Shixing looked puzzled: "We are here to see the gentleman."

Ma Xiaoer frowned and asked, "Which sir?"

"Of course it's Mr. Yan!"

Xu Shixing stretched his neck and looked towards the academy at the foot of the mountain.

Ma Xiaoer asked, "Is it Master Yan?"

Xu Shixing glared and said, "It's Mr. Yan! Lead the way quickly, there's a reward!"

Ma Xiaoer said with embarrassment: "But the academy has issued a notice that outsiders are not allowed to come to Changping in the next few days."

"We are not outsiders, we are all Mr. Yan's students!"

Xu Shixing was a little angry. He pointed at himself and then at Wang Xijue and others beside him.

"My name is Xu Shixing, and this is Wang Xijue."

"They are all students of the Master Yan you mentioned."

"We are not outsiders!"

Ma Xiaoer's eyes rolled: "Then you must know today's secret code."

Xu Shixing frowned: "Secret code?"

He glanced sideways at Wang Xijue, who had been smiling and saying nothing.

Ma Xiaoer said, "Today's secret code: When was the last time Zhou Goudan peed on the kang?"

Xu Shixing couldn't help but pause.

What kind of code is this?

This has become a guessing game.

Wang Xijue couldn't help laughing and patted Xu Shixing.

Xu Shixing could only speculate and said, "He must have wet the kang when he was two or three years old."

"wrong!"

Ma Xiaoer shouted very loudly. He had already seen adults rushing over not far away.

There were also the chief and deputy chief officers in charge of Changping’s public security, who brought with them the firemen.

Without waiting for Xu Shixing to ask for the answer.

Ma Xiaoer had already burst into laughter.

"Because Zhou Goudan peed on the bed again last night!"
