Although Du Tian has to wait until he has passed the law test, everyone knows that it will happen sooner or later.

Hearing the emperor's words, Zhang Juzheng was stunned, and immediately showed a sigh of relief. The emperor's name for asking for money was much more serious than the previous emperor.

Wang Guoguang cast a concerned look.

Zhu Yijun raised a question: "Yuan Fu, when it comes to clearing land, should the local government do it themselves, or should the central government send people to cooperate with the local government?"

It's said to be cooperation, but actually it's just monitoring and monitoring.

Zhang Juzheng calmed down when he heard that it was a serious matter.

After thinking for a while, he replied seriously: "Of course, the Ministry of Household Affairs will send various cleaning officials to cooperate with the local area."

If the amount reported by the local government is the same, then what’s the point of clearing the land?

Zhu Yijun nodded and looked at Wang Guoguang: "Wang Shangshu, do you want to count all the officials in the Qing Li Department?"

Wang Guoguang smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, the imperial examination is already tiring enough. There are not many officials who are distracted by calculations."

"On the other hand, most of the officials are proficient in it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Juzheng understood what the emperor meant.

He hesitated and said: "Your Majesty means to teach a group of officials who are proficient in mathematics?"

Zhu Yijun shook his head and said with a smile: "Not only the officials, but also the ministers and guards have to be trained. For things like farming, it is good to have a few more pairs of eyes."

Immediately, he waved his hand: "Not to mention how much money is needed for this, I will take you two to see a good thing!"

Zhang Juzheng shook his head: "Your Majesty, the cabinet still has several matters to discuss. I really have no time today."

Zhu Yijun curled his lips and did not force him to stay, indicating that he could return to the cabinet first.

After Zhang Juzheng left, Zhu Yijun said to Wang Guoguang: "Wang Shangshu, please wait a moment. Let me change my clothes. Let's go to the new school."

…

The new academy is located next to the Imperial Ancestral Temple outside Donghua Gate and adjacent to the Imperial College.

Of course, the scale is naturally much smaller.

Compared with the Imperial College, which covers an area of ​​30 acres and has three courtyards, the new school is less than half.

Years ago, Zhu Heng said it would be completed in November, but later Zhu Yijun raised some silver and expanded the land to ten acres, which kept Zhu Shangshu busy for another two months.

It was not completed until the end of last month.

Zhu Yijun greeted the two palaces, changed into regular clothes, and then walked out of Donghua Gate with Wang Guoguang.

Dongchang and Jinyiwei secretly guarded the new school along the way in advance to ensure safety.

Zhu Yijun asked the accompanying attendants to stay away and talked with Wang Guangguang as they walked.

Wang Guoguang asked curiously: "Your Majesty, why hasn't this new school got a name yet?"

Logically speaking, a name should be given before completion, otherwise it will be difficult to hang a plaque.

But until now, the emperor still has a new school.

Zhu Yijun smiled and said: "I didn't think of the right one at the moment."

From his perspective, it is best to give meaning to the name.

But if he now forcibly creates a name like the Academy of Sciences, he will lose this layer of connotation, and it will not be beautiful.

It is better to wait for the right opportunity and a suitable name to appear.

The two chatted casually, and after a while, they arrived at the new school.

The gate of the school faces south and is three rooms wide.

Four lacquered and carved solid wood props up the facade.

The plaque above the head and the couplets on the left and right are all empty, which inevitably makes it look shabby.

There are brick screen walls on the east and west sides of the door, with the words "seeking truth" and "asking for questions" written on them.

Zhu Yijun stepped on the blue stone bricks and looked at the two saplings in front of the door. He couldn't help but shake his head: "Zhu Shangshu is really a local province in this province."

He reached out and stroked the sapling: "I don't know when it will grow into a towering tree."

After saying a few words, he led Wang Guoguang inside.

At this time, Jiang Keqian was two steps ahead, warning everyone around.

"Your Majesty!" At this moment, Deputy Mountain Chief Li Youzi came out with a look of panic.

Zhu Yijun signaled that he didn't need to salute and got straight to the point: "Where is Mr. Cheng?"

Li Youzi said quickly: "Your Majesty, Mr. Cheng is giving lectures to the students. I will call him right now."

Zhu Yijun stopped him: "No need, I'll go over and just listen."

If the emperor wants to walk a few more steps, everyone will naturally follow him.

At this time, Wang Guoguang had time to chat with Li Youzi: "Why doesn't Li Shaoqing take classes at Dali Temple?"

Chen Dong, the Right Shaoqing of Dali Temple, went to Nanzhili. Logically speaking, it was a time when he had no time to spare, but Zuo Shaoqing had time to come to the new school.

Li Youzi raised his hands toward the imperial city and said, "The Empress Dowager Cisheng has entrusted me to take care of Prince Lu and Princess Yongning when they leave the palace. As the deputy mountain chief, I have no shirking responsibility."

Zhu Yijun turned around and glanced at him: "My brother and sister are in class today?"

King Lu Zhu Yili and Princess Yongning Zhu Yaoyu also reached the age of enlightenment.

After that, he invited his husband to come to the palace to teach.

Zhu Yijun then suggested that the two younger siblings could attend classes at the new school.

It is not convenient for a woman to go out to attend classes, but now that the new school has just opened and enrollment has not yet started, it is not mixed and is relatively safe. Furthermore, Empress Dowager Li is from a commoner background, so she is relatively less rigid and has a favorable attitude.

The emperor and empress were merciful, and outsiders played twice but there was no response, so no one paid any more attention to the matter.

Li Youzi quickly lowered his head and replied: "The school teaches classes every three or six days, and Prince Lu and Princess go out of the palace to have classes every three days."

Zhu Yijun nodded.

The teaching place is in the main hall in the middle of the school.

There is a corridor around the main hall, surrounded by a pool of water outside the corridor. The hall has double eaves and four corners with pointed roofs, and is covered with yellow glazed tiles.

Zhu Yijun looked up and down. The environment was not bad. It seemed that the Ministry of Industry was not too greedy.

He turned sideways and listened to what was going on inside.

The group of people followed the emperor, imitating everything and pricking up their ears.

I just heard movement coming from inside.

"So, if fifty-six taels of silver are divided into seven points, what is fifty-six divided by seven?"

"For eight!"

"eight!"

The simple question elicited a rush of answers.

Zhu Yijun still heard Li Chengming's voice inside.

Nowadays, the students of the new academy are similar to those of the Jingwei Martial Arts School. The nobles tried to figure out the holy will and sent them in.

There are only a hundred people in total, and they are staggered into different classes. A dozen people come every day is good.

Wang Guoguang cast an inquiring look at Li Youzi, as if to say, is it so simple, is it worth opening a new school?

How could Li Youzi know this, so he had to pretend not to see it.

Everyone waited for a while before the sounds inside gradually stopped.

Jiang Keqian opened the door and went in first to clear the place so that the crowd would not rush out and disturb the holy driver.

When the door was pushed open, Wang Guoguang saw a polished stone hanging in the center of the school with traces of charcoal writing on it.

There were a bunch of strange symbols on it, which made him look confused.

At this time, it was known that the emperor was coming, and those who were not qualified were kicked out from the side door.

Only Zhu Yili, Zhu Yaoyu and Li Chengming came forward to salute.

"Brother, His Majesty the Emperor."

"His Majesty."

Zhu Yijun asked the palace servants to take Prince Lu to play, and then he took Zhu Yaoyu into the school.

Seeing that there was no arrangement for him, Li Chengming followed silently.

Cheng Dawei quickly saluted: "Your Majesty."

Since he entered the capital, he has been favored by the emperor and stayed in the new academy to teach and serve.

On weekdays, he usually does his own research and does what the emperor orders.

Only the class just now were all dignitaries, so he came to teach.
