Chapter 756: Academy Starts Construction
Seeing Old Sun follow Butler Liu out, General Cheng and Lord Zhao also stood up.
"This old minister has to go to the border!"
"I am going to the base too!"
After the two finished talking, they were about to leave, but were stopped by Marquis Yongning.
"My Lords, what are you going to do?"
They were in such a hurry that I didn't know what they were going to do.
“…………”General Cheng.
“…………”Lord Zhao.
The two looked at each other and said in unison:
"You wouldn't understand even if I told you!"
Then they looked at each other again and strode out the door.
No matter what King Chen said to this guy, they would not say anything nonsense, and they didn't want to bring him along, so as not to cause trouble for others.
"You......" Marquis Yongning gritted his teeth in anger.
These two old guys did it on purpose. They clearly didn't want to tell him, and looked at Han Muchen with questioning eyes.
"Your Majesty, where are they going?"
Han Muchen glanced at Chuchu beside him and raised the corners of his lips.
"Oh, since there have been a lot of things going on recently, General Cheng and Lord Zhao have been helping out."
The man had a calm expression and spoke in a very relaxed manner, without any intention of avoiding the question.
Since we let him stay here, we are not afraid of him knowing anything.
"Oh." Marquis Yongning nodded.
He then pointed at Tutor Sun who was about to leave.
"Then what is this, Master..."
If I say that those two old guys can help, I would believe it a little bit. After all, they know a lot.
This Grand Tutor Sun is just a teacher for the princes. Even if a school is opened here, can he still be a teacher here?
Just look at how anxious he was just now, as if something very important happened.
"Oh, today is the day the school starts construction, and the Grand Tutor has been helping out."
Butler Liu looked at the Yongning Marquis with a smile, and said it calmly, without any intention of hiding anything.
Since the prince is willing to let him stay here, he probably doesn't intend to hide it.
"Oh, I see. Would it be possible for me, the Marquis, to come and watch the fun?"
Marquis Yongning nodded, and looking at the attitude of the two old men just now, it was impossible to expect to go with them.
Then why not follow Master Sun to take a look at what the school looks like.
“…………” Tutor Sun said nothing.
He looked at Han Muchen with an inquiring look. He had no say in this matter. They had different positions and he didn't know whether the other party was willing to let him see it.
Han Muchen put down the spoon in his hand and raised the corners of his lips.
"Of course you can."
While speaking, he glanced at the housekeeper Liu beside him, indicating that he should follow him. Although he was not afraid of what he saw, he still had to be on guard.
It would be bad if I did something to them when they weren't paying attention.
Butler Liu immediately understood what the prince meant and nodded unnoticed.
"Then I, an old minister, would like to thank Your Highness!" Marquis Yongning also bowed with satisfaction.
It’s not that I’m particularly interested in that school, I just want to visit it openly.
It’s a good opportunity to take a good look at this place. After all, this opportunity is quite rare.
Seeing that they had all gone out, Qin Chuchu came over curiously.
"Your Highness, isn't the Marquis of Yongning the same as the Second Prince?"
Although he doesn't know much about the affairs of the court, he still knows the general idea. He is a shrewd and scheming guy.
I'm afraid it was because of Han Mulei's previous plots against them, and it was also because of this old guy's ideas.
Seeing Chuchu's thoughts, the man curled his lips and smiled.
"We are doing the right thing, so why should we be afraid of him seeing it?"
“…………” Qin Chuchu curled her lips.
Even using official language!
The man smiled and pinched her nose.
"Are you going to the academy later?"
I thought it would be better to send her to the school, so that she wouldn't go to the border and become like a rat.
"Of course! This is a project that I single-handedly supported. How could I not go?"
Qin Chuchu nodded seriously, and then seemed to remember something.
"I have to hurry. If there's a carriage available, maybe I can get one!"
I hadn’t driven enough on the horse-drawn carriage last time, so I thought if there was another horse-drawn carriage working soon, I would get another one and continue working. It would be much more lively than just watching from the sidelines.
“…………”Han Mulei’s mouth twitched.
I'm still thinking about this!
After dinner, everyone went about their own business, and Qin Chuchu also went to the school construction site with the man.
Because work started today, a special time was chosen, so when they arrived, everyone was waiting there obediently.
Everyone has a smiling face, not just because they can make money, there is a more important reason.
After this college is built, my children can come here to study.
This was something that was unthinkable in the past, as only children from wealthy families could afford to attend those colleges.
Now, their children can also come, and it is no longer a happy thing.
Having a scholar in the family is definitely a great thing that brings honor to the family at this time.
Everyone was so excited that they couldn't wait any longer.
Only the Marquis of Yongning had a bad look on his face and was in a daze.
When I came here before, I thought there was nothing special about this college.
I have seen all kinds of good colleges in the capital, and I don’t think anything extraordinary can be built here.
But after following Master Sun and the others here, they were really surprised.
Not to mention how the college was built, just the area was enough to shock him completely.
Looking out, there is no end in sight. It should be at least dozens of miles long, which is almost the size of a town.
How many students would be able to attend this school? How could so many people afford to go to school?
When Qin Chuchu and the man came over, they saw Yongning Hou, whose expression was in stark contrast to everyone else's, staring into the distance in confusion.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
I could probably guess what he was thinking. After all, academies these days were not this big.
Seeing the prince and princess coming, Feng Er hurried over.
"My Lord, Princess, it's almost time."
"Let's start!" Qin Chuchu nodded.
Then he took the shovel with a big red flower on it from his hand.
When we arrived at the designated location, Tutor Sun and Dean Su were already waiting there impatiently.
Thinking that the college was about to start work today, the two of them couldn't help but smile, and were in a state of excitement, as if this college was their home.
Seeing that everything was ready, Feng Er put the loudspeaker to his mouth, and Qin Chuchu quickly covered her ears.
"Ready, set, go!"
As soon as the words fell, the young men, who had been unable to wait any longer, quickly lit the salute.
Suddenly there was a deafening noise and everyone was laughing so hard that they couldn't stop. Although they couldn't see anything in broad daylight, they still covered their ears and craned their necks to look upwards.
“…………”Marquis Yongning shuddered with fright.
When I came to my senses, I realized they were setting off fireworks. I didn't know where they bought them, but they were so loud.
Looking at Prince Chen and Princess Chen digging the ground to lay the foundation, his cloudy old eyes narrowed and stared straight at Dean Su who was standing next to Grand Tutor Sun.
“………………”
Why does that person look so familiar!
