Worried that the strange old man would be punished, Tang Yunling didn't even bother to eat and ran to the History Department.

At this moment, in the History Department conference room, the school represented by the principal was explaining the issue to the comrades from the Education Bureau who came to investigate.

"The history department's research project on ancient epidemics was not funded by Kyoto University and has nothing to do with the school."

The principal explained what he knew clearly: "This is a research topic funded by Professor Zhou himself. I thought Professor Zhou had the right to make decisions on how to select and employ people."

"When we went to Liuliu Factory to invite Mr. Zhou to teach at Kyoto University, our school said they would agree to one condition of his."

"Professor Zhou's condition is to conduct a research project on ancient epidemics and pandemic diseases in the History Department, and he will personally fund this research project. I think the school has no reason to refuse, right?"

The comrade from the Education Bureau asked, "How did Mr. Zhou come up with the idea of ​​starting a research project on ancient epidemics and pandemic diseases in the History Department?"

"This matter has something to do with my teaching at Kyoto University. As you know, I have worked in Liulichang for my entire life. Protecting cultural relics and restoring old objects is my lifelong pursuit."

Before the comrade from the Education Bureau came, Mr. Su had given instructions in advance.

Looking at Mr. Su who was traveling with him, the comrade from the Education Bureau who was in charge of the investigation nodded and signaled Professor Zhou to continue.

Professor Zhou asked them: "I am a stubborn old comrade, you know that."

"Then you must also know that I don't want to teach."

Professor Zhou asked in return: "Then why did I change my mind and come to teach at the History Department of Kyoto University?"

After keeping everyone in suspense, he continued, "This is because I had a heart attack and almost died before coming to Kyoto University."

"The granddaughter-in-law of the He family in our compound, a barefoot doctor from the countryside, saved me with just a few tiny silver needles."

"The doctor said that if she hadn't given me those injections, I, an old-fashioned person, wouldn't have seen the sun rise the next day."

"Why is the granddaughter-in-law of the He family so amazing? Later I found out that although she was just a barefoot doctor in the countryside, her medical skills were passed down from her ancestors. This shows how profound our Chinese medicine culture is."

"It just so happened that Liulichang received several medical instruments from the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty a few days ago, including well-preserved stone mills, pestles, medicine jars, etc., and even a handwritten copy of the Guangji Prescriptions compiled and issued by Emperor Xuanzong at the time, as well as the Waitai Miyao written by Wang Tao, and a copy of the

"Supplement to Compendium of Materia Medica."

"The book 'Wai Tai Mi Yao' records many cases, including various treatments for epidemic diseases at that time. It also records that Emperor Xuanzong attached great importance to medicine. At that time, there was an Imperial Medical Bureau, and good prescriptions for treating diseases were engraved on stone tablets and widely circulated in the market."

"I thought that by recording the ways in which each dynasty dealt with epidemics and pandemics, I could understand the political and social conditions of the time from a side perspective. That's why I came up with the idea of ​​researching and summarizing ancient epidemics and pandemics, and I wanted to compile the rare medical books I had accumulated in Liulichang into a book."

"I am afraid that there may be common sense errors when conducting this research, so I want to find a medical student to assist me in completing it."

Professor Zhou emphasized: "Because this research topic involves many rare books, many of which are borrowed from Liulichang, and some are from my collection and that of my old friends. For the confidentiality of the content, I personally funded and selected my granddaughter-in-law to assist in completing the course. What's the problem with this?"

After understanding the whole story, the comrades from the Education Bureau were convinced by Professor Zhou's approach and admired his spirit of academic research.

Moreover, he invested it personally.

There is no such thing as abusing power for personal gain or putting research funds into one's own pocket...

After a classmate from the History Department spread the news, many students who had just finished their meal in the cafeteria rushed to the History Department to watch the fun and see how the school would punish Professor Zhou for abusing his power for personal gain.

While Lu Baiwei was talking to Song Zhou, she saw Liu Cuifang among the people who had come to watch the fun.

interesting!

While trying to make peace with her, he was jumping on her weak spots.

Originally she just wanted to teach her a lesson, but now Lu Baiwei feels that having a fly buzzing around her ear all the time is affecting the environment.

This fly is so annoying.

It's time to slap this stinky fly to death.

Lu Baiwei sneered at the direction where Liu Cuifang disappeared, and called out to Song Zhou: "Do you want to go with me to the History Department to see what's going on?"

Lu Baiwei said that Professor Zhou would be fine and Tang Yunling would be fine, but Song Zhou couldn't figure it out.

The Education Bureau sent people to the school, so how come Professor Zhou will be okay?

Lu Baiwei also said that her cousin would not be implicated in this matter?

How is that possible?

Song Zhou, who was timid and fearful, was originally worried that Liu Cuifang and Yu Jing would take revenge on her afterwards.

Seeing so many people who knew the news rushing to the History Department to watch the fun, she got excited and followed Lu Baiwei.

"How do you think the Education Bureau will handle this matter?"

"I guess Professor Zhou should at least be punished, even though he was invited by the principal himself from Liulichang, and the one who came to investigate this time was the Education Bureau."

"This is no longer an issue of teaching quality. He is abusing his position to embezzle research funds. A disciplinary action would be the least of his punishment."

"Ah, is Grandpa Zhou going to be punished?"

Liu Cuifang was sandwiched in the crowd of onlookers and screamed out in exaggeration.

She looked sad: "We live in the same compound. I already knew that classmate Tang Yunling is Grandpa Zhou's granddaughter-in-law."

"But Grandpa Zhou has always been upright and incorruptible."

"What on earth was he thinking this time? He came to the medical department specifically to pick his granddaughter-in-law to do research together. The Zhou family is well-off and not short of money."

"What does this have to do with a wealthy family?"

Yu Jing replied angrily: "This is a moral failure. You are putting the school's research funds into your own pocket."

"We thought that Professor Zhou from the History Department was highly respected. He even came to the Medical Department to select people for a test. I asked him why he didn't pick the best students in the Medical Department. It turns out that he was abusing his power for personal gain."

Guan Tiantian is Yu Jing's yes-man.

She was filled with indignation: "They took the school's research funds and put them into their own pockets. Both the grandfather and grandson are corrupt parasites."

"If you ask me, he and his granddaughter-in-law deserved to be expelled from school."

Yu Jing and Guan Tiantian spoke one sentence at a time, their tone extremely harsh and sarcastic.

It seemed that the harsher the words, the more it seemed that Professor Zhou was blind in not picking them when he came to the medical department to select people.

When Liu Cuifang heard these words, her face turned red with excitement.

She had gone to so much trouble just to get the bad-tempered Tang Yunling out of Kyoto University.

Although Tang Yunling's temper has been restrained since she went to college, if she had a conflict with me, she would definitely tell me everything that happened to her when she went to the countryside.
