eldest son of Ming dynasty

Chapter 69

"What about that traitor?"

Wang Hua entered the mansion in a hurry, with his head down, looking unhappy.

The housekeeper in the mansion was a little scared, and said timidly, "Go... go out."

When Wang Hua heard it, it was even more smoke from the seven orifices!

Why are the sons of other people's families studying hard, and they all have some talents when they say it.Or just a mediocre person, as long as he guards the family business of his ancestors.

He is the only one who gave birth to such a son. He is smart and everyone praises him, but his mother just doesn't do business!

An angry Wang Hua was sitting in the main room. After waiting for more than an hour, the figure of that bastard finally appeared.

Wang Shouren ran away secretly, so he knew that his old father must be furious while he was still on the road.

If you say that he is also sensible, he will be honest as soon as he returns to the house after annoying his father. He originally wanted to hide for a while, but as soon as he entered the door, he saw his father waiting for him, so he didn't think about him, and went to give his relatives a proper manner. Dad knelt down.

"The child visits the father. Father, don't be angry, the child knows his mistake."

Wang Hua rubbed his bulging head, "Where did you go?"

"Boy... went to the mansion of General Wang Yue."

Wang Hua:"……"

Contrary to Wang Shouren's expectations, his father was unusually quiet.

"father……"

"Alas..." Wang Hua sighed long, "Today, the East Palace also summoned my father."

Wang Shouren pricked up his ears,

From the end of last year to the beginning of this year, the series of actions of Prince Donggong shocked people's hearts, as if the shadow of a generation of sages had appeared.

Wang Shouren was influenced by family education since he was a child, and he had the idea of ​​serving the country in his heart.

Therefore, he is also extremely concerned about Prince Donggong.

"I don't know what you are capable of, kid... Your Highness actually knows that I have a son named Wang Shouren who is keen on military art."

Wang Shouren was very surprised, "Your Highness knows me?"

"It's strange to be a father, but it's the truth." At this point, Wang Hua's fatherly eyes still came out, "Your Highness persuaded me to agree that you go to the northwest with Wang Yue."

"What?!" Wang Shouren was stunned.

"Father agreed?"

"Before Donggong drives, what is there to agree or not to agree to? As a father, I just want to say goodbye to you...Northwest is not Zhejiang, and we are facing war again. You go here..." Wang Hua still loves his son after all.

Blood is thicker than water, and Wang Shouren is rarely known for his talents, and he is also the smartest of his sons.

When it comes to parting,

The two deeply affectionate father and son can't deduce the atmosphere of comedy after all.

"Besides, Hongzhi was Enke again in 12 years."

Wang Shouren kowtowed, "Father, don't worry, although my son does not follow the rules, he is not a ignorant person. In fact, whether it is articles or the art of war, he is interested in it. This time he will go west, and he will definitely not waste his studies. "

"Your Highness said that Wang Jia is also going there, and his writing is excellent, so you can ask for advice nearby."

When Wang Shouren heard it, he said more pleasantly, "Then father doesn't have to worry about the child. The boy has ambitions everywhere. The child is going to learn literature from Lord Wang Jia and martial arts from Lord Wang Yue. In the future, he will become a pillar of the court just like his father minister!"

These words are from Wang Hua's heart.

Although this kid often annoys him, he is probably the one who stands out the most.

And why Donggong specifically mentioned his son is also what Wang Hua murmured in his heart, maybe he met at some pass.Although it is a long way to go to the northwest this time, it must be hard work, but no matter how you look at it, it means exercise.

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings..."

On the second day of February, outside the walls of the capital, flags were flying and horses neighing.

Wang Yue rode his horse and finally looked back at the majestic Beijing city, followed by Wang Jia and Wang Shouren who also looked back in the same way.

"I thought of a sentence His Highness said to me." Wang Jia said this sentence, without waiting for others to ask, he continued on his own, "Your Highness said, I have money and people in Ming Dynasty, and I must not let others I was bullied!"

Although these words came from the mouth of civil servants, they had the power to make dozens of warriors present hold the reins tightly.

"Follow me to the post!" Wang Yue shouted.

"Yes!"

There was a bang, followed by horseshoes splashing dust like smoke.

……

……

In the palace, there were two things that attracted people's attention. One was that Xu Pu, the head of the cabinet, couldn't bear it anymore, so he once again begged the emperor to become an official.

The emperor agreed.

The relationship between Hongzhi and his courtiers is still very good, and Xu Pu is indeed old, not because of conflicts between the monarch and his ministers or other reasons.

Everyone around him also knows that the old man's eyes can't see clearly, and even after retirement, he still needs to have his eyes treated.

So everything is calm.

After Xu Pu became an official,

Liu Jian took over as the head of the cabinet, followed by Li Dongyang and Xie Qian.

The so-called three fires when a new official takes office,

Now that the new cabinet has come out, something must be done, right?So what's the most important thing right now?
This is the second thing mentioned above: the East Palace gave lectures.

When Xu Pu left, Zhu Houzhao knew that he could not escape this day.And according to the will of the emperor last year, basically the time cannot be delayed.

The only thing that can be dragged on is to 'choose an auspicious day',
After all, the auspicious day is not tomorrow, so naturally it will be delayed.

But Zhu Houzhao didn't care about this, because it didn't mean anything to him.

He still practiced calligraphy and archery according to his own rhythm, and if he had time, he would also exercise and exercise, doing a few sets of martial arts moves with Zhang Yong and so on.

Because I have requirements for myself, and this requirement is to become a young emperor with both civil and military skills and talents in the future.

The young emperor can't just be young and romantic, the most important thing is to be resourceful and hold the power of the world.

Zhu Yuanzhang paid great attention to the education of the prince. According to the rules set by his old man, the task of a child studying is quite heavy.

There is also a lot of content taught, generally focusing on traditional Four Books and Five Classics such as "University" and "Shangshu". Whether it is a faint emperor or a wise emperor, the purpose is for the pope to be a good emperor.

In addition, my emperors of the Ming Dynasty will also compile books for their sons, and Zhu Yuanzhang's "Emperor Ming Zu Xun" does not need to be mentioned.There are also "Sheng Xue Xin Fa" compiled by Emperor Taizong, "Di Xun" compiled by Emperor Xuanzong, and "Wen Hua Bao Xun" compiled by Emperor Xianzong.

Finally, there are articles written by literati of the past dynasties, such as Wang Bo, Su Shi, Liu Zongyuan, etc. Don’t say that you are a scholar, but you have never read Wang Bo’s articles or Su Shi’s words, that’s not right.

In fact, these contents, say more, say less.

Zhu Houzhao is not yet an adult, and even if the ministers formulate the learning content, there will not be much.

But there is also a trouble, that is, bad luck, and ran into Liu Jian and Wu Kuan.

Wu Kuan needless to say.

Liu Jian, the new head of the cabinet, is really not an ordinary person.

The old man is 65 years old this year. He received an orthodox and strict Confucian education since he was a child. His teacher is Xue Xuan, a Neo Confucianist. At the age of 27, he was a Jinshi, and then he was qualified in the Hanlin Academy.

He is very serious about studying and doing things, and he will never be sloppy. Righteousness is righteousness, evil is evil, and he has an upright personality. He has been in the Imperial Academy for 28 years. The title of "Liu Mutou".

Now a cabinet leader and Zhan Shifu Zhan Shi are these two old men, that's really right.
They summed up together: Dong Gong is smart, but has extraordinary wisdom, he must be led to the right path.

Originally, Xu Pu was given one hundred characters a day,

The two old men looked at each other, Wu Kuan said: "Your Highness is very talented, isn't this a bit rare?"

Liu Jian pretended to think so, "Maybe it should be two hundred?"

"See you, Mr. Liu Ge."

Wu Kuan also said: "I heard that His Highness is well-known and memorized. The articles taught every day are only one or two hundred words, and the lecturers have nothing to say."

"That's right, if Your Highness doesn't learn enough, it's our negligence as courtiers."

Originally, it was the emperor's will to discuss this matter again, but after the two old men 'conspired' together, the crown prince's course tasks were heavy.

Not only did Emperor Hongzhi look wrong, but Zhu Houzhao, who was sitting next to the emperor, also secretly became angry. It's not that he hadn't read Xu Pu's original plan,
Originally, it was easy to practice one hundred characters a day, and it was also easy to memorize the articles learned.There are also some riding and archery lessons.In this way, there is content and rest every day, which is very good.

Now, the practice of calligraphy is doubled, and it is enough to study more articles, and I have to come and read "University" and "Spring and Autumn" every day.Brainwashed, right?In fact, the emperor's lectures on the feast day have similar requirements. The status of Confucianism is still unshakable, so it is natural to turn over and study some of its classics.

Zhu Houzhao didn't like this. He didn't hate learning, but he hated long-term, cramming and oppressive learning.

Looking at the two high-ranking officials in red robes and gray hair, he felt a little powerless. Why do these old men always give him a feeling that he must be obedient?
The emperor hesitated for a long time, and then asked softly, "Why have the contents of the former cabinet minister Xu Puding been changed?"

Wu Kuan raised his hands, saluted and replied: "Report to Your Majesty. The ministers thought that His Highness the Crown Prince had little intelligence, and every time he had a wonderful remark, the original plan was too simple with His Highness's talent."

I'm a simple asshole!
