Chapter 596: Face is swollen
at night.
Before Lu Chaochao had finished his meal, someone from the palace was sent to pick him up.
"Oh, I have met Princess Zhaoyang. Wish Princess Zhaoyang good luck..."
"Princess, haven't you had your dinner yet? Your Majesty misses you so much that he sent a servant to take you into the palace..." The eunuch said with a smile on his face.
He had been following the emperor for many years, and even the courtiers had to be polite when meeting him.
He only saw the Lu family, who were cautious and humble, deeply afraid of offending His Majesty.
"I'm too lazy to expose him, does he miss me??" The Lu family had just laid out dinner, Chao Chao broke off a squab leg from the table, and went out with his father-in-law.
The father-in-law smiled and complimented: "You can't hide it from the princess."
After Lu Chaochao entered the palace, the emperor was pressing his eyebrows with a headache on his face.
"Can you settle the saint? If you have any difficulties, you can tell me at any time." The emperor knew that with the saint in Beizhao, he didn't know how many scholars could be attracted to cross the country.
"There are difficulties now." Lu Chaochao raised his hand weakly.
The emperor was furious: "You little thing, you never suffer a loss."
"Wang Yuanlu, open the treasury and pay Zhaoyang 50,000 taels of silver. I will pay for their expenses."
"You are crying in front of me, but you are not allowed to cry in front of a saint. This is about Beizhao's face. I cannot afford to embarrass this person." The emperor knew Lu Chaochao very well and was shameless. If a saint comes to teach, she might even blackmail him!
"Don't slander the saint!"
Lu Chaochao grinned dryly: "Am I such a shameless person?"
"I don't know about you yet? The ministers in the court are all opposed to your establishment of a women's school. It would be better for you to infiltrate the enemy and coax all the wives to help you fund the women's school."
"You, you, the number of courtiers calling for imperial doctors has increased sharply in the past few days. It's because they were angry." They made a bet with Lu Chaochao in the court hall, and the fight was bloody.
As soon as I returned home, my dear fellow, my house was robbed.
Every household has contributed a lot.
In the middle of the night, servants from various families came out to ask for the imperial doctor, and even the emperor was alarmed.
I couldn't laugh or cry after knowing the truth.
"They are too small-minded, and they will get angry over such trivial matters. Chaochao is very generous, and Chaochao never takes it seriously and never holds grudges." Lu Chaochao looked contemptuous.
"Emperor father, why did you ask Chaochao to enter the palace?"
The emperor put down his pen and sighed quietly.
"The emperor has something to ask for. It's really a headache for me to be tormented by those old guys..."
"You also know the status of saints in the hearts of literati. Seeing the saint enter a women's school today, those old people became interested..."
"They were wondering... if they could ask a saint to teach the Imperial Academy a lesson." The emperor's face turned red. Isn't this poaching?
However, the Imperial College provided talents to the imperial court, and the emperor could not refuse.
Seeing Lu Chaochao's ugly face, the emperor immediately explained: "How about instead of competing with the female students, we only have one class every day?"
"If you have any opinions, you can raise them. I will satisfy you wherever I can!"
Lu Chaochao's eyes were indifferent: "Emperor, father, those who took the lead in protesting on the streets and the establishment of a women's school were the students of the Imperial College."
The leader, Senior Brother Lin, is a student of the Imperial College.
"Emperor father, what misunderstanding do you have about Chao Chao? Do you actually think that I am some kind of holy lady who repays evil with kindness?"
Lu Chaochao was surprised, even a little shocked when he saw the old emperor.
emperor…………
Thinking about the tragedy of Lu Yuanze's family, the emperor seemed to think it made sense.
This little girl has never been someone who would wrong her!
"Can't Chao Chao be accommodating?" The emperor was helpless. Who knew a slap in the face could come so quickly? !
Lu Chaochao waved his hand and went out: "No need to talk."
"They don't even have the courage to approach me, and they still want the emperor to make peace with them. Why should I forgive them?"
“There are many masters, it doesn’t mean they are the only ones!”
Lu Chaochao left the palace immediately, but did not return home. Instead, he walked around the city a few times.
"Girl, do you have anything else?" Yushu couldn't help but asked when he saw that the carriage passed by the Lu Mansion twice without entering.
"Wait a little longer and give them some time to prepare." Yu Shu was puzzled by Lu Chaochao's words.
Chao Chao counted the time before letting the carriage stop at the door.
really……
There were already many dejected scholars standing at the door.
Oh, the proud son of heaven, the best among men, why don’t you come to my door to admit your mistake! !
Lu Chaochao didn't look at them after getting off the carriage, but just walked in with his head held high.
Seeing that she was about to enter, Senior Brother Lin didn't even look at him, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
He closed his eyes and said cruelly, "Princess, please wait a moment."
"Princess, Lin made a big mistake because of his unscrupulous words. Princess, can you please forgive me and give Lin a chance to serve Beizhao and do his best for female students?" Senior Brother Lin looked embarrassed, and he didn't I thought that the words I spoke yesterday must be swallowed today.
"Please forgive me, princess. We realize our mistake."
"We are the best students in the Imperial College. No ordinary master can compare with us. We will do our best, never hide our selfish interests, and serve the women's school well."
"Please forgive me, princess."
This group of scholars are the most arrogant at heart. These words almost crushed their arrogance, and they no longer dare to look down on anyone.
Yushu and Yuqin looked at each other and couldn't help but feel happy.
They were born with preference and looked down on women from above, but now they have to enlighten women.
But what Yushu didn't expect was that there was something even more enjoyable!
Lu Chaochao muttered: "But there's not enough accommodation..."
Senior Brother Lin immediately said: "We don't need a house, we can take care of ourselves, yes, we will find a place to live by ourselves."
Lu Chaochao muttered: "Three hundred taels a year..."
"Enough, enough, three hundred taels is enough!!" Originally, the Imperial College only had the children of court officials and nobles, but since the emperor recruited talents, the Imperial College also began to accept children from poor families.
More than three hundred taels, it is already a very high price.
"No, you misunderstood."
"Three days ago, I invited you, it was three hundred taels of tuition, plus gifts for festivals."
"But now, you give me three hundred taels. This is the entrance fee..." Lu Chaochao tilted his head, and the words he said surprised everyone.
"I... we will give you three hundred taels a year?" Senior Brother Lin pointed at himself in astonishment.
"We are here to be teachers!!" Me? !
The teacher gives you? ? ? !
"Yes, it was given to us by the teacher."
"Brother Lin, things are different now." Three days ago, I respected you, but you didn't know how to appreciate it.
Three days later, don't blame me for being ruthless!
"How can this be absurd? How can there be such a rule? Teacher... comes to teach, and he has to pay for it! There is no reason for this!" Someone immediately objected and refuted.
Lu Chaochao put his hands behind his back: "Chaochao is not forcing anyone. Today it is still three hundred taels, and tomorrow it may be the highest bidder."
"Now, I am not begging you to be a teacher."
"You are begging to teach in the girls' school." (End of this chapter)
