There were seventeen people who requested special tutoring, slightly less than the number of people who had studied in Cuiyun Room, but slightly more than Zhang Shou expected. After all, in addition to Zhang Chen, there were others who had good family backgrounds and should not have trouble finding a marriage. And after the initial ridiculous mood passed, he understood the mood of these people.
Just like what he said when he taught Zhu Er, maybe these people didn't really want to marry the princess or the princess to achieve a happy marriage, but they definitely wanted to show themselves in front of the emperor and gain attention. In this way, even if they might not be able to become the royal son-in-law, other families might pay attention to them.
However, Zhang Shou was really helpless. If it was a love guide, maybe he could still use his seemingly rich experience in his previous life to make a cameo appearance. The problem was that it was easy to meet Princess Deyang once, it was also easy to take a look at Princess Yongping from a distance, and it might not be difficult to meet the two princesses, but forget about talking. However, what he was asked to teach now was how to deal with his father-in-law
At this moment, seeing these noble children skipping the afternoon elective class and begging him to hand over Jiuzhangtang to Lu Sanlang to teach for the whole afternoon, and all crowded into the Xiao family compound, Zhang Shou couldn't help rubbing his temples, and then said unhappily: "Some things can only be understood, not expressed in words. What do you want me to tell you?"
Zhang Lu was the most slick, and was the first to apologize with a smile: "Young Master, how about we do the same as before, and you come one by one and give instructions in private?"
"Okay." Zhang Shou also felt a little awkward facing all these expectant looks, so he immediately accepted it. "Think about what you want to ask, and then come in one by one. I can't guarantee that what I say will be useful to you later..."
He had just said this when Ah Liu's abrupt voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Eunuch Chu is here."
When the three words "Eunuch Chu" were heard by all the civil and military officials in the court, they couldn't help but think about it, not to mention the noble children in the courtyard? For a moment, everyone was busy and panicked, and even Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu begged them to come over for life and death. Of course, Zhang Chen, who actually wanted to ask a few questions, was no exception. Because he never expected that his mother would report him directly without asking him!
At this moment, they saw Zhang Shou's action with a clear meaning. Zhang Shou pointed directly at the house behind him!
In an instant, Zhang Chen took the lead, and a large number of young masters rushed into the house, listening carefully and curiously to the movements outside. As for those who occupied various advantageous positions such as door and window gaps, they secretly peeked outside.
Soon, they heard a very friendly voice: "Is Dr. Zhang here?"
"Eunuch Chu, you really have great eyesight and hearing. How did you know I was here?" Zhang Shou had already reached the door while he was speaking. Although he knew that with Ah Liu's hearing and vision, he would not report it until Chu Kuan really arrived at the door, but he still wanted to give the young masters inside some time and space to hide. When he saw Chu Kuan getting off his horse and bowing with a smile, he returned the greeting.
"It's not that I have clairvoyance and super hearing. I went to the Jiuzhang Hall of the Imperial College first, sat in on the lecture of the little fat man from the Lu family, and asked him questions. Then I came here on purpose." Chu Kuan said, and glanced at the low wall calmly, but did not go in. Instead, he sighed and said, "Who would have thought that someone as strong and upright as Liu Shilang in the past would live in seclusion here after retiring."
