This is also a method used in almost all schools.

However, it became difficult to teach the prince.

Even if he is a grand master, it is not easy for him to corporally punish him at will, let alone those who are responsible for reading.

I don't dare to hit him at all, that's why I have those reading companions... If the prince is disobedient, I will beat the reading companion with a ruler... This is a common method, to scare the monkeys.

But this method has been used too many times, and the prince is not stupid, so how can it still be a deterrent?

Fortunately, the prince at that time had a gentle personality and was not... or not yet rebellious, otherwise no one would dare to rule him.

But Qi Ping did the opposite and taught through fun.

Although in Song Jiuling's view, this method cannot be commonly used. After all, studying is a hard job and goes against nature, but it is useful for now.

If he changes positions with Qi Ping, can he do better than this boy?

Song Jiuling thought about it and sighed, knowing that it was not as good as it was.

He turned his head and looked at the other lecturers next to him, getting angrier and angrier. Without comparison, there would be no harm. Look at them.

At this time, the five great scholars also froze in place, looking at the school in disbelief, looking like they were listening intently.

The little prince was actually more serious than ever before, and they had never seen such an eagerness for knowledge.

Why... he is even better at teaching than us... The five great scholars shook their heads, their spirits collapsed, and they were dejected.

"Huh." Song Jiuling glared at a few people and walked away.

This class is still very long, and he can't keep interrupting it.

Seeing this, the others dared to stay. They stepped lightly and walked away from afar.

Some people still couldn't figure out the situation: "Why did the Grand Master leave? What's his attitude toward Qi Ping?"

Someone next to me looked over helplessly: "What do you think?"

Then he sighed and said in confusion:

"Where did your Majesty find such a monster?"

…

…

Qianqing Palace, Imperial Study Room.

There was no morning meeting today, so the emperor slept in. After breakfast, he went to the imperial study to deal with the memorial.

After being busy for a while, I saw that the sun was about to rise into the sky, so I simply threw away the news and thought of going out to rest.

At this time, suddenly, a eunuch holding a fly whisk ran through the courtyard and corridor and came to the outside of the study:

"Your Majesty, Grand Master Song asks for an audience."

Song Jiuling? Why is that stubborn old man here? The emperor was startled and said:

"please."

Not long after, Song Jiuling, who was nearly 70 years old and had white hair and beard, saw the Ninth Five-Year Master sitting upright and drinking tea in the side hall.

"I see you, Your Majesty."

"Master, there is no need to be too polite. Let's have some tea."

After everyone sat down, the emperor asked tentatively: "The grand master is here. I don't know why?"

Song Jiuling frowned and said seriously:

"I heard yesterday that His Majesty appointed a military attaché with no merit to give lectures in the East Palace and teach the prince literature, so I came to have a look this morning."

To suffer... The emperor's heart skipped a beat, and he felt a little worried. He also had a headache for this veteran minister.

This can be seen from the last imperial examination list.

This is a tough guy who would rather risk beheading than dare to contradict him.

Literary character and so on... It sounds good, but if it comes to hinder yourself, it is also very annoying...

When he ordered Qi Ping to go to the East Palace, he was worried that it might cause dissatisfaction among the great scholars, so he made an exception and let Qi Ping concurrently serve in order to avoid conflicts.

But there was still no way to avoid what was coming. Song Jiuling came here to persuade him to withdraw his appointment.

Thinking of this, the emperor put down the blue and white tea cup, coughed lightly, and said seriously:

"It is indeed true. The new lecturer is the famous poetry fairy in Kyoto, the chief poet of Liang Kingdom, and the disciple of Mr. Six of the academy. He has repeatedly solved major cases. He is really a talented person in the empire. Not only that, he is also in the government.

He has made great contributions, so I was given the post of lecturer and reader."

Song Jiuling listened quietly, not paying much attention at first, but then she was stunned for a moment:

"What contribution does this person have to the government?"

The emperor explained:

"To be honest, this is the way to provide relief work in Wanzhou due to floods. This is what I proposed."

"It's him!" Song Jiuling couldn't hide her surprise.

As for the source of the work-for-relief strategy, the government and the public are not clear about it. The emperor has abided by the agreement and has not spread it to outsiders. However, now that the two have a showdown, there is no need to hide it.

The emperor nodded and threw the second bomb:

"The strategy of dividing the rankings also came from this person."

Song Jiuling was stunned. The ranking... was also related to him?

Seeing this, the emperor struck the iron rails while it was hot:

"Therefore, although this person has no fame, he is by no means mediocre. He is actually from a subordinate position and cannot pass the scientific examination. Otherwise, with his talent and learning, it may not be difficult to pass the imperial examination... Therefore, I have made up my mind that the Grand Master will be exempted from the examination.

Open your mouth and don't embarrass me."

Song Jiuling was a little confused, wondering when I would make things difficult for you, but she quickly realized it, shook her head and smiled bitterly:

"Your Majesty has misunderstood. I am not here to drive away Qi Ping."

The emperor was startled and said in surprise: "But just now the Grand Master..."

Song Jiuling sighed: "Originally, I was really dissatisfied, so I entered the palace, but I didn't expect..."

Then, he went to the East Palace, where he first learned that Qi Ping had subjugated five great scholars, and then witnessed the process of Qi Ping teaching the prince in detail.

The emperor was stunned for a moment: "Is this happening?"

This was something he didn't expect.

Song Jiuling sighed: "I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes."

The emperor probed: "What the grand master means is..."

Song Jiuling said: "Your Majesty has a keen eye for knowing people, and the old minister has no objection."

…

Huaqing Palace.

The eldest princess read the book all morning, but didn't remember a few words. The time passed in a daze, and it was lunch time in a blink of an eye.

"Your Highness."

As soon as Yongning sat down at the round table, he saw the female official returning from outside.

"Is something wrong?" the eldest princess asked curiously.

The female officer nodded and explained: "There is something new happening in the East Palace, and it is related to Mr. Qi. Do you want to listen?"

Qi Ping... The eldest princess frowned lightly, with a cold expression on her bookish face, and said:

"Don't listen."

The female officer lowered her head, said nothing, and waited on the side. Yongning took a few bites of vegetables, ate for a while, and suddenly said:

"Does the matter in the East Palace have anything to do with the prince? Tell me."

"...Yes." The female officer didn't dare to laugh, she just recounted what she had heard.

He recited the Book of Rites backwards and persuaded the five elders... He taught the prince, and the grand master praised... The eldest princess didn't care at first, but after hearing about it, her chopsticks stopped in the air and she even forgot to eat the food.

"Boring." After a while, he choked out a sentence.

…

…

Before lunch, the morning classes at Wenhua Hall ended.

Qi Ping broke a chapter and walked away in the prince's resentful eyes.

The first class ended perfectly. He was not interested in socializing with the people in Zhan Shifu and rushed out of the palace before lunch.

Get ready to go back to the Yamen.

But before leaving the imperial city, he suddenly saw a gorgeous chariot blocking his path.
Chapter completed!
