Since the "aggression" between Chen Xi and Xie Yuner was exposed, their relationship at home has become awkward. Lin Dai hid in the east wing room for several days and did not come out every day. She was unable to eat and eat every day, and her little face was thin, which made Chen Xi, who was visiting, feel distressed when he saw it.

Chen Xi was still useless after all, and with a conscience, he had to go with the little girl more. Even if she ignored her, she sat next to her and waited for her. She didn't get along alone with Xie Yuner for a few days.

Xie Yuner originally wanted to admit her mistake with Lin Dai, but after thinking about it carefully, it was natural for her to sleep with her husband, so what was wrong?

Finally, Xie Yuner complained a little about Chen Xi, feeling that Chen Xi would not tell Lin Dai in advance, which would lead to the final embarrassing situation, because she herself realized that it was Lin Dai who broke through her and Chen Xi that day, and it was also her who broke through Chen Xi and Lin Dai.

It was not until Chen Xi explained that she and Lin Dai had not yet fulfilled her relationship, and Xie Yuner was skeptical and no longer had any resentment and blamed Chen Xi.

However, it was a young couple who were playing with flower guns, so Xie Yuner was not surprised. In fact, since she met Chen Xi and Lin Dai on the first day, she has been envious of Chen Xi and Lin Dai's childhood sweethearts. At that time, she never thought that she would marry Chen Xi and fall in love with this young man one day.

Chen Xi travels three places at home every day, Zhan Shi Mansion and the palace. His main business is to accompany the prince to study. The more naughty the prince, the lighter his business is. It doesn’t count if he goes off for two days. He often sits for a whole morning or an afternoon, and comes back to sort out the records, and the task is completed.

Even Xie Qian, who was dispatching an errand for Chen Xi, felt that Chen Xi was a little too "idle". Several times when he went to the Zhan Shi Mansion to arrange work, he mentioned that if Chen Xi was idle, he could go back to the Hanlin Academy to help compile the book. The compilation of the "Da Ming Hui Dian" was stagnant. Regarding the old things during the Jianwen period, except for Chen Xi who could compile, others do not have the knowledge and talent, and they have no courage to edit.

Chen Xi's answer was very straightforward: I'm busy with business, so I can't obey my duty.

That day, Chen Xi had just entered the palace and before he could reach the Xiefang Hall, he saw Prince Zhu Houzhao sitting alone in the pavilion by the Dongyu River for snacks. It was strange how he ran out alone. Seeing that there were stains on the prince's face and his body was dirty, it was as if he had come out of a pile of mud, he probably understood that the prince was naughty and sneaked out to play while the person was not paying attention.

"You wait!"

Just as Shen Xi turned a blind eye and walked straight through the pavilion, the prince spoke and called Chen Xi.

"See the prince."

Chen Xi saluted respectfully.

The prince came over with the pastry and yawned: "I saw this prince, and it just passed by like this. What does it mean... Don't think I don't know you. Your name is Chen Xi, right? I often see you holding a pen next to you. What are you writing?"

Chen Xidao: "When you go back to Your Highness, the records you make every day are the prince's daily daily life and study."

"oh."

Zhu Houzhao nodded, "What are you good at recording? I read too many books on weekdays, can you remember them?"

The prince is not only playful, but also conceited. This is a problem that people around him have spoiled him. He always praises how smart he is and how outstanding he is among his peers. He brags about it because there is nothing in the sky and nothing on the earth, but in fact he is just a little smart. If it weren't for the prince's halo, such a self-righteous naughty child would be difficult to achieve success in the future.

"I try to record it as much as possible, so there will be no mistakes." Chenxi Road.

The prince hummed softly, and looked dissatisfied, saying, "I heard that you are the top scholar in the current subject and the smartest person in the Ming Dynasty. I have a question now. If you can't answer, the title of the smartest person will belong to me. Would you like to compete?"

Chen Xi has been in the limelight recently, mainly because he made the Mongolians embarrassed in the court. A thirteen-year-old top scholar defeated the Mongolian national teacher with his wisdom. Now some people have circulated the story of Chen Xi, let alone a place like the imperial palace, where the news is already very closed. If there is any news in the palace, eunuchs and palace maids will talk about it. It is very easy for the prince to know.

But competing with the prince to learn is obviously not necessary. Winning will not be too glorious. Instead, it will make the prince hold a grudge and give you some shoes in the future. If you lose, it will not count as embarrassing. The prince will become more arrogant and domineering, and will not study hard in the future.

Thinking of this, Chen Xidao said: "When I go back to the prince, I have only read books for a few years, and my talent is naturally not as good as the prince. The prince is famous and has many talented and well-educated masters. His academic achievements in the future will definitely be above those of me."

Zhu Houzhao sneered: "Don't say this nonsense. You say you are better than you in the future, then you are not as good as you now? I ordered you to compete with me. If you disobey... Humph, I will ask someone to spank you, which will make you lose your skin and unable to take care of yourself!"

The naughty child is already very fatal, and he is still a powerful naughty child, so he is lawless. Even if I am not your daily lecturer, I can be considered half of your husband. As the prince is rude to him, he actually wants to hit me. Is this a minister or a teacher?

"Your Highness, please give a question." Chen Xidao.

Zhu Houzhao's face was a little proud: "Let's say there are three birds on the tree. I'll shoot one with a bow and arrow. How many are there in the tree?"

What is this a problem? A brain teaser? Or a brain teaser in pediatrics! Only eight-year-old children like Zhu Houzhao will feel that the person who can answer such questions is a real "smart person".

Chen Xi pretended to be contemplative, and after a while, he said, "Go back to Your Highness, I think... there should be two left."

"Wrong!" Zhu Houzhao clapped his hands, "Everyone said you are smart. I shot the bird on the tree, and the two birds next to me flew away? There was no bird left on the tree!"

Chen Xigong bowed and said, "The prince has a strong logical thinking. I am ashamed of myself. But I asked about it. How did Your Highness know that the two birds next to me will fly away?"

Chen Xi praised Zhu Houzhao's ability to "logical thinking". With Zhu Houzhao's knowledge, he naturally couldn't understand this. He tilted his head and said, "I shot the bird down. I saw the two next to him. Can you not fly away? If you lose, you will lose. You are not allowed to pay. Now I order you to give me the position of the smartest man in the Ming Dynasty to me!"

"Your Highness wants to, just take it away." Chen Xidao, "but I still don't understand. What if the two birds next to me are blind... and deaf, or they are paying attention to something else and don't notice that their companion next to me are shot?"

"Um?"

Zhu Houzhao blinked and stood there in a daze.

He usually plays with people, discusses knowledge with people, or plays such brain teasers, and no one will mess with him.

The biggest difference between Chen Xi and these people is that they have broad thinking and will not be limited to one corner when thinking about problems.

"How do you know that they are blind and deaf?" Zhu Houzhao's nose wrinkled slightly and stared at Chen Xi.

Chen Xi shook his head and said, "It is because the prince's question is not very clear, and I don't know that I have to ask it clearly. Even if the two birds are not blind and deaf, the three birds are on the tree, and it is likely that a family of three will be three. One is shot, and the other two may not be able to leave. If you want to have a funeral for this bird, more birds may fly. The answer to the question is not one, or two, but many. As for how many of them are, it depends on how many relatives the bird was shot by the bow and arrow."

Chen Xi asked himself that he was just messing around, but he was still far from those ministers who were only good at talking, but compared with a naughty child, his eloquence was amazingly high. Even if Zhu Houzhao had ten brains, he could not beat him in such debate issues at all.

Zhu Houzhao stared at her eyes, her mouth widened slightly, and after thinking for a while, she asked in an almost questionable tone: "The birds are going to have funeral?"

"Why can't a bird be funeral? In fact, students have a simple opinion. The answer to the question comes from seeking truth. If the prince personally tests it, when the three birds are lined up on the tree, he will personally shoot one and see how many of the other two are reacting to know how many are there."

Chen Xi respectfully made a very good suggestion.

But this suggestion is nonsense. Zhu Houzhao is playful and can't learn well, let alone archery, riding and shooting. In addition, finding three birds at the same time is simply impossible to complete the practice.

Zhu Houzhao felt a little annoyed, staring at Chen Xi as if he was looking for a break. At this moment, Liu Jin's voice came from afar: "Crown Prince, I have found you. When did you come here? Oh, the prince's body is dirty. Go and change your clothes!"

Because Zhu Youzhang and his wife knew that the prince was playful, they had given instructions to the servants who took care of the prince, and kept the prince's appearance clean at any time and always had the replacement clothes on their side.

Zhu Houzhao went over and asked Liu Jin and others to serve and change their clothes. At the same time, she turned around and glared at Chen Xi fiercely. Her gaze seemed to say, "Wait, I will definitely take over your title as the smartest person when I look back."

When the prince left with Liu Jin and others, Jin Gui arrived late and didn't know what had happened before.

"Prince?"

Jin Gui looked at the back that was leaving, "Isn't it okay?"

Chen Xidao: "It's okay, the prince asked me a question..."

Jin Gui immediately picked up the pen and asked, "What's the problem?"

Chen Xi was puzzled: "Aren't you going to record the prince's problem?"

"That's certainly, the prince rarely asks about academic matters. If he doesn't remember it, it's a mistake for a minister. Let me tell you, I will not record this matter in the classroom, but just leave it for future review."

The records of the prince's daily life and study are divided into two important and unimportant items. One is to record them well and submit them to the emperor, which belongs to the "elementary version". The content of this elementary version is mainly about the prince's reading situation so that the emperor can understand his son's reading progress at any time.

The other is less important.

Regarding when the prince gets up and eats, these contents are mainly recorded by the eunuch, and are sorted out by the Zhanshi Mansion and archived. If the prince is in good health, he will find the mistakes and omissions in the prince's daily life from these documents similar to the emperor's daily life note to prevent the problem from getting worse. On weekdays, the emperor has no intention of reading the prince's daily life records.

The matter of the prince must be recorded in case the emperor is held accountable for incomplete records.

Chen Xi worked in the Zhan Shi Mansion for a while and naturally understood the rules. He nodded and told the previous questions of the prince and his answers one by one.

After recording, Jin Gui couldn't help but smile and said, "Shen Zhongyun didn't realize this is not what a teacher said."
