20. The Situation Turns Rapidly

() Seeing the chaos in the classroom, the professor couldn't help but frowned, and his extremely serious face appeared even more majestic. Those who are professors of the Imperial Academy in this Taixue should not be afraid of the so-called dignitaries, otherwise this professor is really There is no way to take it, he said extremely displeased: "What's going on with you? Are you gathering a crowd to make trouble? Please sit down in your seat."

When Cui Linzhi saw the professor, a smug smile suddenly appeared on his face flushed with anger, and he told the professor first: "Professor Zhou, it was Wang Wei who beat someone up first, it's really insulting, I ask Professor Zhou This savage is expelled from Taixue!"

Cui Linzhi winked cryptically at Professor Zhou, thinking that the annual filial piety would not be eaten by dogs. Professor Zhou had a close relationship with the Cui family of Boling. Before he became Professor of Guozi, Boling The staff of the Cui family, if it weren't for the old man's efforts, Zhou Yan would not have been able to become the professor of Guozi this year. Why Cui Linzhi can show off his might in the Taixue is not because of the people above him.

And if Zhou Yan wants to go one step further and become a doctor of the eighth rank, without the help of the Cui family, it is impossible to even think about it.

Sure enough, when Zhou Yan heard Cui Linzhi's words, he showed him a friendly smile, and then looked down at Wang Wei and his party. When he saw Wei Zhi, his face was a little stiff, because Wei Zhi had also Zeng unscrupulously called him a running dog of the Cui family, except for following the scriptures, he had no outstanding knowledge.

Seeing that Wei Zhi still had a condescending look of contempt on his face at this time, Zhou Yan was so angry that he didn't bother to care about the face of Wang Wei, an "excellent student". Wei reprimanded: "Wang Wei, usually I see that you advance and retreat with restraint and behave gracefully. Why did you lose your composure today? I didn't expect you to be a hypocrite with no talent but no virtue!"

Seeing Zhou Yan's unscrupulous favoring of Cui Linzhi, the students around him dared not speak out, and for Cui Linzhi's informant behavior, many students showed disdain on their faces, thinking that Cui Linzhi was a villain.

Hearing Zhou Yan's reprimand, Wang Wei's expression was still indifferent, and he said unhurriedly: "Why is Professor Zhou just listening and believing? You can ask the students around you to see who started the dispute first. of."

Zhou Yan didn't ask indiscriminately, just biting Wang Wei's point: "No matter what, you are the only one who will do it, right? You are a student who reads sage books on weekdays, so why don't you know that a gentleman will not use his hands?"

Wang Wei retorted without changing his face: "The Analects of Confucius said that a gentleman is not arrogant, and a villain is not arrogant. Yes, I did it, but when facing other people's insults, a real gentleman should be angry." And drawing the sword, otherwise, he is nothing more than a submissive coward, may I ask Professor Zhou, where does this gentleman come from, and what is the basis for not doing anything?"

Nowadays, the style of Tang Dynasty favors martial arts, and most of the scholars will also learn martial arts. Wang Wei's loud words undoubtedly made all the students present applaud from the bottom of their hearts. How could Zhou Yan expect Wang Weijin, who is usually quiet and cowardly? Ri is so sharp, he was refuted for a while and couldn't answer, his face turned blue and red, and finally he just stuck his neck and said stiffly: "Wang Wei! You, you, you get out of here, I don't want you to be so ignorant." A student of your lord, a student as virtuous as you will never pass the imperial examination!"

Although almost all the students around are on Wang Wei's side, it is undeniable that even the lowest-level teaching assistants in Taixue have authority over all students, and their family background is of little use here unless someone Experts have direct interests in teaching assistants, professors, etc., otherwise their authority cannot be affected.

The two students who were worried about Wang Wei couldn't help discussing:

"Although the truth is on Wang Shisanlang's side, the power is on Professor Zhou's side. Wang Shisan's situation is really not good..."

"That's right. This week, Professor Zhou always wants to save face. He knows his mistakes and doesn't correct them. In the past, when he was pointed out by a student in class, he would justify his nonsense and put on small shoes for that student. This time, Wang Shisan made him lose such a big one. In order to save face, he will definitely report to Dr. Guozi or Jijiu and ask them to expel Wang Shisan."

"It's a pity. Wang Shisan's talent is enough to make him a Jinshi after graduating from Taixue. If he doesn't have the status of a 'student' now, I'm afraid it's a bit of a hang-up. After all, if he is not a student, he can only pass the provincial tribute." You can only take the provincial exam if you pass the Juren exam... but fortunately, he is from the direct line of the Wang family in Taiyuan, so it should be no problem to recruit an official in the future."

"You're wrong, maybe you don't know yet, Wang Shisan's father has just passed away, and he has long since lost the chance to be cute, and the only way to go is the imperial examination..."

……

In addition to the students who are worried about Wang Wei, there are naturally some people who hate him because they are jealous of Wang Wei's talent. These people are basically familiar with Cui Linzhi. Dare to challenge the teacher as a student, or this Professor Zhou...

Wei Zhi, Cui Hao, and Lu Xiang looked at each other, and were about to help Wang Wei, when they heard a solemn yet majestic voice: "You mean that Wang Xiaolang is not virtuous, so he is not qualified to be here. Taixue is studying, but let him get out?"

Professor Zhou was furious, and couldn't help but retort: ​​"Who are you, dare to question my authority as a professor..."

Turning around just now, he saw Guozi Jijiu who was carefully waiting beside the old man full of official authority, he retracted his angry words only halfway through, and said tremblingly: "He, Dr. He, what are you doing? coming?"

The person who came was He Zhizhang. He was going to invite Wang Wei to the teaching workshop this afternoon, but he suddenly thought that there was a class in Taixue today, so he came to help Wang Wei take a leave of absence, and planned to focus on Wang Wei's daily study.

As for why the Guozi Jijiu carefully accompanied He Zhizhang, it was because the position of the Guozi Jijiu was equivalent to the principal of later generations, and He Zhizhang, the doctor of Taichang, also had the power to supervise the entire Guozijian, similar to a school inspector , but it is also in charge of matters such as sacrifices. Dr. Taichang used to be in charge of the teaching workshop.

It can be said that although Dr. Taichang is a genuine official of the seventh grade, although he is an idle job, he is extremely noble and prominent among the idle jobs. But in fact, it has the meaning of superior and inferior.

At this time, the expression on Han Quan's face was a little ugly, because he was just saying good things about Wang Wei in front of He Zhizhang. After all, he was quite well informed, and he also knew about Wang Wei's rescue of He Zhizhang. , so Han Quan, who is more able to figure out what he wants, led He Zhizhang to see Wang Wei's situation, while unreservedly praising how talented Wang Wei is, and how gentlemanly he is on weekdays.

But who would have thought that when he came to this classroom, he heard Zhou Yan yelling, "Wang Wei, get the hell out of here, if you don't have virtue and can't pass the imperial examination, isn't this a slap in the face for the son of the country to offer wine?" ?

Besides, Han Quan thought that he knew Wang Wei's situation quite well. He had maintained excellent grades and good discipline in the past two years since he entered school. Otherwise, he wouldn't have the confidence to speak well of Wang Wei in front of He Zhizhang. but……

Before He Zhizhang explained his intention, Han Quan rushed to make up for it: "Professor Zhou, what nonsense were you talking about just now? You said it so badly, I see that you are overworked, it's time to take a rest."

Han Quan looked serious, and reprimanded condescendingly, the so-called high-ranking official crushes people to death, not to mention that the position of Han Quan's Guozi Jijiu is two levels higher than that of Zhou Yan Guozi's professor. In this Guozijian, there is no Who has more power than Han Quan, his warning tone made Zhou Yan's bones almost go limp.

Don't look at Zhou Yan always pretending to be stern, but in fact he has no backbone. He takes his position as a professor of the country very seriously, otherwise he wouldn't be so hard to curry favor with Cui Linzhi, but he didn't expect that, This Wang Wei actually has such a backstage, doesn't it mean that the Hedong Wang family has lost power?Why does this fanatic of the world still value Wang Wei so much?

After all, Zhou Yan's information was not as well-informed as Han Quan's. At this time, he was sweating all over his body, but echoed tremblingly: "Han Jijiu, you are right. In fact, Wang Shisanlang is a talented student with good conduct, but I just because of He had a different opinion on a question, so it was impulsive, I, I..."

He Zhizhang frowned and said lightly: "Just because you have different opinions on a question, you say such a heavy word? You professor is really headstrong. Confucius said that if three of us go together, there must be my teacher. Sometimes the opinions of the students are not sure. It’s worse than the professor, forget it, don’t care about it this time, Professor Zhou, I hope you will pay attention next time, teach students to be more patient, and don’t give such unreasonable reprimands at every turn.”

Zhou Yanzuo listened carefully, bent slightly, and promised with a look of panic on his face: "Dr. Saburo is indeed a true gentleman!"

Seeing Professor Zhou's pretentious appearance, the students who gloated at his misfortune all sniggered in low voices. They felt that Professor Zhou was really spineless, but they didn't know that such behavior was normal in the officialdom. As long as you keep your official position, you can continue to be a tyrant, but losing your official position for the so-called backbone is really not worth it.At least Zhou Yan thought so.

Cui Linzhi, who was arrogant and complacent just now, was stunned by the sudden turn of the situation. He couldn't understand why He Zhizhang and Han Quan would support Wang Wei. It didn't make sense!
