Chapter 8 - Obstacles
Xiao Zhang's head was pounding after listening to what the old gentleman was talking about.
Xiao Zhang had been researching on refining white sugar for the past few days. He was already sleepy, and with the old man's constant nagging, Xiao Zhang felt like his eyelids were trembling.
With a pop, Xiao Zhang could no longer hold on and lay down on the table and fell asleep.
Lu Boming, who was leading the students to read the Four Books and Five Classics, glanced at Xiao Zhang, and the corners of his mouth kept twitching.
This idiot is becoming more and more bold. He usually just whispers to others in his class, but today he dares to sleep.
He really doesn't take himself, a world-famous scholar, seriously.
"Sir, I'm reporting Xiao Zhang for disrupting order and sleeping and snoring in class, making it impossible for everyone to study."
Just when Lu Boming looked ugly, Fan Xianzhi saw the opportunity and stood up, pointing at Xiao Zhang who was sleeping soundly.
When Fan Xianzhi said this, Shen Huwen and Xie Liang responded one after another.
Seeing that the situation was not going well, Cao Ding hurriedly pushed Xiao Zhang with his hand: "You idiot, wake up quickly, wake up quickly."
"Don't make trouble, I'm sleeping."
Xiao Zhang pushed Cao Ding away impatiently, changed his posture, and said with a silly smile on his face: "My dear, my prince is here."
As soon as the words came out, the whole room laughed.
Cao Ding's face was even more ugly.
"Haha, our Crown Prince is quite happy in his dream."
Fan Xianzhi sneered and ridiculed, and as he finished speaking, the whole room burst into laughter again.
Looking at Lu Boming again, his face had already turned the color of pig liver.
He took a deep breath, walked up to Xiao Zhang with the ruler, held it high, and smashed it down hard.
Snap!
There was a crisp sound.
Xiao Zhang jumped three feet high on the spot: "Oh, damn, who hit me!"
"I beat you, what do you want?"
Lu Boming was furious. This damn brat had made trouble in his class many times before and disrupted the learning of other students.
Hurry him home and confine him. The King of Xiangdong went to the palace again to see his majesty and empress to plead for mercy and give assurances.
If not, how could I let Xiao Zhang re-enter the Guozi School?
I never expected that this little bastard would not change his habit of eating shit and would have an erotic dream in his own class.
"Old man, how dare you hit me!"
When Xiao Zhang was getting up and angry, when he saw Lu Boming admitting, without saying anything, he raised his hand and punched him out.
Lu Boming was unprepared for a moment and was punched in the eye, then fell down.
Suddenly, the school was in a state of chaos.
"It's against Tiangang, the students are beating the teachers!"
Fan Xianzhi was the first to jump out with his younger brother and surrounded Xiao Zhang.
"You idiot Xiao! How dare you hit the teacher! You're done. Your father can't protect you now."
Lu Boming stood up with the help of his students, his beard trembling: "I have been teaching and educating people for decades, and I have never seen anyone as evil as you. Just wait, if I don't go to His Majesty to read a copy of your book, I will I swear not to be a human being!"
After saying that, Lu Boming covered his eyes, flicked his sleeves, left everyone behind, and strode away.
After Lu Boming left, Cao Ding approached Xiao Zhang with a nervous look on his face: "Idiot, why are you so impulsive? Mr. Lu is a great scholar in the country, and he holds the position of Prince, Taifu, Censor, Zhongcheng, etc. Even when His Majesty sees him, he must address him as Master Lu. .How could you hit him?"
Xiao Zhang was stunned when he heard this. How could this old sour scholar have such a big background?
Seeing that Xiao Zhang was confused, Cao Ding stamped his foot: "Run quickly, I will watch over here for you."
After hearing Cao Ding's words, Xiao Zhang came back to his senses.
This was the first time he and Cao Ding had met, but he could also hear the concern in Cao Ding's voice, which didn't sound like he was being fake.
I think the friendship between the two of them must be extraordinary.
Unexpectedly, even though I was a fool in my previous life, I could still have such a friend who knows both cold and hot, and truly cares about me.
"Run? Where do you want to run?"
Fan Xianzhi led his younger brothers to block the way, with a gloomy sneer on his face.
Cao Ding protected Xiao Zhang behind him: "Fan, I don't have time to mess around with you. Get out of my way quickly. Otherwise, I'll be rude!"
Fan Xianzhi looked disdainful and pointed at his face: "Come here, you are not polite and try it. I want to see how you are so rude."
Cao Ding was speechless when he heard this.
Fan Xianzhi was the prime minister's son and the head of the officials.
Although my father is a Duke of Jingling and a representative of the military generals, in terms of status, he is really not as good as Fan Xianzhi's father.
"Bah, if you don't have the guts, don't imitate others."
With that said, Fan Xianzhi turned back to Xiao Zhang: "Fool Xiao, this time I didn't frame you intentionally. Everyone saw it. You beat Mr. Lu in front of you. If you leave, everyone will be implicated. How difficult is it?
No, do you want everyone to take the blame for you?"
Scholars have a lot of tricks up their sleeves. Although Fan Xianzhi does not have the literary literacy of his father, he knows how to use his power to overwhelm others.
Those in the school were either royal relatives or sons of nobles. If he offended so many people at once, Xiao Zhang would not have to mess around in the future.
After figuring out Fan Xianzhi's intentions, Xiao Zhang rolled his eyes at him disdainfully: "Who said I was leaving? Get away, don't delay my sleep."
Fan Xianzhi gasped at Xiao Zhang's tone.
Well, well, what a fool. He actually despises himself over and over again.
Okay, you go to sleep, right? You sleep well here, wait until someone comes from the palace, see if you can still sleep.
Immediately, Fan Xianzhi asked his younger brother to guard the front and back doors to prevent Xiao Zhang from escaping.
It was a pity that Xiao Zhang fell asleep as soon as Fan Xianzhi finished making arrangements.
This fool doesn't know that disaster is coming.
Okay, just sleep well and let your father always oppose my father in the court. This time, see how I kill you.
Fan Xianzhi hummed and laughed as he thought about it.
…
In the palace study room, Xiao Shaoquan listened to the report of the eunuch Li Wenying.
The matter of Concubine Chen must not be as simple as it seems on the surface. If he doesn't understand it clearly, he will always feel uneasy.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Cheng Lu, the imperial censor, would like to see you."
A small yellow door knocked on the door, and Li Wenying immediately stopped and looked back.
Xiao Shaoquan frowned: "Bo Ming? If he is not teaching at Guozixue, what is he doing here at Shangshutai?"
Li Wenying hesitated and said: "Your Majesty, do you want me to take Master Lu away?"
"Forget it, let him in. You continue to investigate Concubine Chen."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Soon, Xiao Shaoquan's order came out, and Lu Boming burst into tears and rushed into the Chancery, came in, and knelt down without saying a word.
"Please, Your Majesty, make the decision for me!"
Xiao Shaoquan was shocked, especially when he saw Lu Boming's black eyes.
"Master Lu, why is this happening? What's wrong with your eyes?"
Lu Boming cried and whined: "Your Majesty, the Prince of Eastern Hunan didn't say anything about disturbing the class, but also beat the old minister. You see, the old minister's eyes are all black."
When Xiao Shaoquan heard this, he was instantly furious.
The so-called master of the Lord of Heaven and Earth, Lu Boming, was also a great scholar in the country. Xiao Zhang's beating of him could be said to be disrespectful and disrespectful.
"Come here, catch that evil obstacle to me!"
