During the three days of vacation, Zhang Shou was in high spirits and ran around everywhere. None of the people who were watching him dared to be careless. They had to follow him from the city to the outside of the city, and from the outside of the city to the city. They were almost exhausted. After all, following him on horseback was too conspicuous. Everyone was afraid of being discovered by Ah Liu, the most vigilant person around him, so they strictly ordered the spies to hide themselves in the crowd.
Therefore, when Zhang Shou finally returned to his teaching position at the Imperial College, those teachers who had almost worn out several pairs of shoes due to his transfers were all moved to tears.
You know, except for the first day when Zhang Shou went to the public school to meet Xie Wanquan, and met the head of Suzhou Guild Hall, Hua Huishou, while eating at the Yangzhou Guild Hall, and was invited to the Suzhou Guild Hall opposite, he met the head of the Hua family, Mr. Hua Si. These were two relatively important news. But after that, they didn't get any news in the next two days. They just watched Zhang Shou take the beauty to travel around the lake and the garden!
However, before these spies could even breathe a sigh of relief, after the court session ended that day, they were severely scolded by the people sent by their respective masters to contact them!
For example, the close followers of Grand Secretary Kong passed on Grand Secretary Kong's words and scolded the guy who was ordered to follow Zhang Shou: "What are your eyes and ears for? You didn't even get any useful information!"
"The second round of enrollment for Jiuzhang Hall is not only for Shuntian Prefecture, but also for the entire Northern Zhili. Wu Ge Lao and Zhang Daxueshi have come out to give their full support, but you didn't know. The emperor publicly attacked Guanglu Temple today, claiming that he would seal up all the accounts of Guanglu Temple and hand them over to the students of Jiuzhang Hall for review, but you didn't know either. The emperor suddenly proposed to build a port in Cangzhou, but you didn't get any news either!"
The spy was scolded so much that he dared not raise his head, but he was extremely dissatisfied in his heart. He was just following Zhang Shou and his group from a distance. With such a powerful person like Ah Liu around, how could he get close to them and know what they were discussing
After venting his anger on behalf of Grand Secretary Kong, the attendant patted him on the shoulder with sympathy and said earnestly, "That was what the master said just now. I have no choice but to read it again. You have to understand our master. He had a hard time getting the great Lord Jiang to leave, but he didn't expect that the choice of the Prime Minister would be delayed, so it's inevitable that he's a little angry."
"Actually, I also know that asking you to follow Dr. Zhang is really unreasonable."
The eyeliner sighed with a bitter face, "Brother, it's good that you know my difficulties. I really can't see any ambitions for Dr. Zhang. He seems to be a lucky boy who is obsessed with beauties. During the two days in Haidian Zhaoyuan, he rowed a boat on the lake to appreciate the withered lotus, listened to music, drank wine and had a party. He even called all the girls in Tingyu Xiaozhu out of the city. Who would have thought that he would suddenly do such a big thing without saying anything?"
If Zhang Shou knew that in the eyes of many high-ranking officials, he had become a troublemaker and an ambitious person who was best at disguise, he would definitely feel that he was really wronged.
Investigating the Guanglu Temple was something the emperor wanted to do; building the port of Cangzhou was also something the emperor wanted to do. What did it have to do with him? The only thing he was planning to do was recruit students for the second term of Jiuzhang Hall, but he had never kept that a secret from anyone. It was impossible for Jiuzhang Hall to just recruit the current batch of students and that would be enough, right
