He just walked over there, and many people followed him to watch the fun.
Looking at the plaque with the words "A Hundred Blessings" written by the emperor himself at the door, Zhu Zhongyuan's original arrogance instantly lost four and a half points. He took a deep breath and asked someone to knock on the door.
First, the Dragon Guards came over to take a look, and after they explained their identities, Xu Wenqu came out to greet them.
He was originally smiling modestly, but when he heard Zhu Zhongyuan's name, Xu Wenqu's smile immediately disappeared.
He said calmly: "I'm sorry, the Northern Academy and your philosophy are not in line with each other, I'm afraid we are not destined to be together. Please leave." He bowed and was about to leave.
In front of so many people watching the fun, Zhu Zhongyuan was repeatedly humiliated. He was almost furious: "Xu Liuyuan! You should know that even with the imperial edict, no one will come to this remote place! I came here with all my heart to serve, but you insulted me so lightly. Wouldn't such an attitude make the world's talented people feel cold! If the news spreads, who will come! In the mind of His Highness Fu Yan, are all the world's talented people slaves who can be humiliated at will?"
Yan Shiyue's voice came out: "Just speak, don't talk about the world's talented people!"
She walked out and said coldly, "I recruit people with good character, not fame. Character is always more important than talent! As soon as we met, you criticized the northern students and looked down on the broken arm of someone close to me. I don't need people like you!"
Someone shouted, "Empress Fu! He's still cursing you behind your back!"
"Yeah," Yan Shiyue nodded and said, "You're still talking about others behind their backs? That means I did nothing wrong. Your character is really not that good."
...
...
Zhu Zhongyuan was so angry that his whole body was shaking: "If I...if I leave, I wonder who you can call to the Northern Academy!"
"Then you don't have to worry about it. I would rather have no one available in the Northern Academy than recruit mediocre people who would mislead other students!"
At this moment, someone laughed loudly and said, "Your Highness, I am here as promised."
The crowd fell silent, and then the old man from yesterday walked in with a smile on his face. He had obviously been watching outside for a long time, and his smile had a bit of the mischievousness of an old naughty boy.
Yan Shiyue smiled and bowed: "Mr. Wen."
The old man nodded.
Zhu Zhongyuan took a look and sneered, "Xu Liuyuan, Your Highness doesn't understand, don't you understand either? Mohists have no king or father. If the Northern Academy really lets Wen Da be the principal, then Longmen County will really become a city of traitors!"
The old man looked at him with a smile and said, "I am Wen Zhouheng."
Zhu Zhongyuan was stunned, and even the sneer on his face froze.
This name is not only well-known, it is also famous all over the world, it is simply terrifying!
If Xu Wenqu is the best of this generation, then Mr. Hengzhou is the leader of the generation before that!
He is the master of the current prime minister Xu Mingxiu!!! All of his disciples have held high positions and are extremely noble, but he has never been an official. But what can I say... There is always a legend about him in the court! The previous emperor and the current emperor have summoned him many times. He is really a person who can shake the literary world with just one article!
Zhu Zhongyuan couldn't help asking again, "Who are you?"
Wen Zhouheng said again with a particularly good temper: "I am Wen Zhouheng."
Yan Shiyue had never heard of this name.
But seeing Xu Wenqu's surprised and happy expression, and Zhu Zhongyuan's expression of being struck by lightning, he instantly understood and said with a smile: "I have heard of your great name for a long time, please come in quickly."
Wen Zhouheng smiled and said, "No hurry." He waved his hand and said, "I'll introduce you to some friends."
A few old men at the back came in slowly with their hands behind their backs. After their names were called one by one, Xu Wenqu became a helpless fan for the first time, while Zhu Zhongyuan... couldn't even stand.
Is this a dream?
Otherwise, why would all these legendary great writers come to this godforsaken place?
As they were watching them go in, there was a loud bang outside.
There were scholars who quickly told them how amazing these people's names were... But the people of Longmen County said, is this strange? With the blessing of the goddess, even if the literary stars in the world fell down suddenly, it would not be strange.
For Xu Wenqu and his companions, this was truly a godsend.
The seven people who came were all great writers and had been famous for a long time.
They were wandering scholars who spent most of their lives traveling around. Even their children and nephews didn't know where they went.
And they have lived in Qinzhou for more than a year.
At first, it was just because the scenery of Qinzhou, the roads, and the Yuwen carriages were really different from other places. Later, I discovered that there were a lot of delicious food, and many new things that were only available here.
Just when I had enough fun and was about to leave, I heard that Yan Shiyue was going to build a school.
Then came a series of disturbances.
They just planned to come over and take a look, just to take a look.
Among them, because Wen Zhouheng was a greedy person, he went to the restaurant to eat new dishes, and happened to meet Yan Shiyue, and then had a conversation with her... and successfully moved him.
Then he went back and convinced these people.
Even though they are old, it takes an opportunity for these old men who have been traveling all their lives to give up traveling, and at this moment, a "school" that has been planned for a hundred years is their opportunity.
It is conceivable that once their names spread, countless people would immediately set out to come to the Northern Academy.
The dilemma of the Northern Academy was solved in an instant.
Yan Shiyue looked at Xu Wenqu and the other two, all of whom turned into fanboys, and were very attentive, personally serving tea and water. Then he quietly withdrew, asked people to serve him well, and then wrote a letter to Emperor Ming Yan.
After she finished writing and passed it around, she went to look in the hall... A group of people were talking about a topic she couldn't understand. Only Wen Zhouheng saw her and nodded and smiled at her. She was afraid that they would grab her and teach her the next moment, so she shrank her head in fear and went out for a walk.
Now that she had a teacher, she naturally didn't have to worry about students. She strolled for a while with her hands behind her back. Just as she was considering whether to go to the construction site to take a look, she saw a few people blocking her way.
The leader was a beautiful woman wearing a glittering Taoist robe. She bowed and said, "I am Zhong Yu, the Taoist priest. I am here to meet your Highness."
Zhong Yu?
Yan Shiyue thought for a while before remembering who this person was. Wasn't he the apprentice of Yan Chengyuan's third brother's godmother?
Well, that’s a confusing statement.
She asked, "Is there anything I can do for you, Taoist priest?"
Zhong Yu said sternly, "Your Highness is known as the Goddess of Fortune. You can turn misfortune into fortune and turn disaster into blessing. But have you ever thought about where such good fortune comes from? The way of heaven is balanced. If there is surplus here, there will naturally be shortage elsewhere. Have you ever thought about how people who are lacking should live?"
She sighed, her eyes full of compassion: "Your Highness is kind-hearted, you should think more about others."
