The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 453

Xu Tian thought it would be a bit difficult, but he didn't expect it.

"It's just a small matter. If you need any help in the future, just let me know."

After saying this, Cheng Yaojin glanced at the guards behind Xu Tian, ​​and he already understood what was going on.

No further words were said.

He readily agreed to Xu Tian's request, and after Xu Tian finished handling the matter, he returned to his residence.

Just as he was finishing up his business, something happened at the academy in Chang'an.

You should know that the academies in Chang'an were mostly filled with imperial relatives, or the sons of officials and the wealthy.

All those young masters are just a bunch of spoiled brats.

The teacher in the courtyard went directly to Xu Tian.

"Master, please speak slowly. What exactly happened?"

Unless it's something important, the Master wouldn't come knocking on his door on his own initiative.

Xu Tian looked patient.

The Master looked solemn.

He spoke eloquently.

"These past few days have been the same as usual, just teaching the textbook normally. But unexpectedly, the students went on strike. As you know, they are all rich kids. When they went on strike, we had to go and ask them to come back."

The teacher took a sip of tea to calm his nerves, then continued, "It's just that none of them want to come to the academy. Now, with the autumn examinations just around the corner, this has happened. If the higher-ups blame us, this could be..."

He really couldn't imagine the outcome.

This matter directly affects the future of their academy.

Not only that, it also affected the lives of these teachers.

Therefore, they took it very seriously, and it wasn't just one or two students striking, but all of them.

This is the first time such a thing has happened at the college.

Therefore, they were all very frightened and did not know what had happened.

Xu Tian said directly to the teacher, "How could such a thing happen? Well then, let me go to the academy with you to take a look."

The master had no choice but to nod in agreement.

They returned to the academy with Xu Tian.

Because of the strike, the college became very welcoming and peaceful.

Only a few teachers remained, and the sound of reading aloud could no longer be heard anywhere.

After investigating, Xu Tian learned that the students felt uncomfortable whenever they attended class.

He was being explained to by another teacher.

"At first, we all thought that these spoiled young masters were just tired of studying. Lord Xu, you know that those young masters are all difficult to serve."

The teachers here have a very difficult time dealing with those rich young masters.

You can't hit them, and you can't scold them.

If it weren't for the high wages here, who would be willing to farm here and put up with those people's bad temper?

However, some students are still very good.

At least, not everyone is a loser.

The Master continued, "Later we discovered that all the students had the same symptoms."

But it's only these students who are showing these symptoms; all the teachers here are fine!

Another teacher continued, "We all suspect that these students did it on purpose, just to avoid studying here. The autumn examinations are coming up soon, and if the higher-ups blame us, none of us will escape punishment."

They were all in a hurry, each one concerned about their own future.

Xu Tian naturally wouldn't blame them, after all, the matter was rather strange.

He then had his teacher lead him into a student's home.

A doctor accompanied them.

If they were truly faking it, the doctor they brought in wouldn't have conspired with them.

The student's family also strongly opposed this matter.
