Chapter 90 How high is the sky? How thick is the ground?

The food in the palace is quite good, the key is that the ingredients are good. The meat dishes are mainly mutton, and various seasonal vegetables are also very fresh. In addition to the imperial chef's craftsmanship, the various dishes made are also very attractive. Li Zhang ate while talking to Zhao Zhen casually, and the atmosphere was very relaxed.

But at this moment, Li Zhang suddenly glanced out of the corner of his eyes and saw an old man standing outside the door. He saw that the other person was about sixty or seventy years old, his hair and beard were all white, his face was full of wrinkles, his loose eyelids drooped, and his eyes were a little gloomy. When he saw the other person for the first time, Li Zhang was very disliked by this person.

"Lin Yishan, why are you here so early? Have you ever had a meal? Why don't you eat with us?" At this time, Zhao Zhen also noticed the old man outside the door and shouted in surprise. Only then did Li Zhang realize that he was Lin Yishan, who was speaking the Book of Songs in the afternoon.

"Crown Prince, I've eaten at the Ministry of Works." Lin Yishan saw a bright smile on his wrinkled old face when he saw Zhao Zhen. Then he looked at Li Zhang and said, "Is this a new companion?"

"See Lin Yishan!" Although Li Zhang didn't like this person, he still politely as a student. After all, he was a human being for two lifetimes, so he still had this look and scheming.

"Yes, my cousin is my aunt's son. I just met each other a few days ago. And my cousin has a wide range of knowledge. We were so happy just now!" Zhao Zhen also excitedly introduced to Lin Yishan. Compared to when Hu Zhi talked in front of him, Zhao Zhen seemed to be much more relaxed with Lin Yishan. It seems that he really liked him more.

Lin Yishan was also looking at Li Zhang at this time, and soon stroked his beard and smiled: "I have heard that the queen has accepted the marriage, but I didn't expect that the queen trusts you so much and actually lets you serve as the prince's companion. However, although you are a royal relative, once you enter the palace, you must follow the rules in the palace, especially the prince's education is of great importance. You must study harder in the future and never bring bad habits outside the palace to the prince!"

Although Lin Yishan's tone when he spoke was kind, the meaning in his words was not polite at all. It seemed that not only Li Zhang did not like him, but he also did not like Li Zhang. There are such people in this world, even if they meet for the first time, they can dislike each other.

"Don't worry, Lin Yishan is young, but he has not developed any bad habits. Unlike some older people who will mislead their children!" Li Zhang also responded with a smile at this time. Lin Yishan was full of hostility when he saw him for the first time, so he naturally would not be polite.

Lin Yishan didn't expect Li Zhang to fight back. He was stunned for a moment, and then a little angry flashed in his eyes. However, Zhao Zhen also felt that the atmosphere between the two was a little wrong, so he hurriedly interrupted: "Lin Yishan, my cousin is here for the first time today, and his foundation is a little poor. Hu Zhi told me to ask my cousin to learn the Thousand Characters first. What do you think?"

"If you have poor foundation, you need to work harder. Thousand-character essays are the learning of enlightenment. If you don't understand anything in the future, you can ask me more questions and don't disturb the prince too much!" At this time, Lin Yishan spoke again. At the end of the day, his eyes looking at Li Zhang even showed a warning look.

Li Zhang was also a little annoyed at this time. He was about to retort, but he didn't expect Zhao Zhen to smooth things over again and said, "Lin Yishan, don't worry. Although my cousin has a poor foundation, he is very smart, and his knowledge is not comparable to me. Maybe I will ask my cousin for more advice in the future!"

"Young people should not think that listening to more rumors on the streets and alleys means having a broad knowledge. Only after reading more can you know how high the sky is and how thick the land is!" Lin Yishan seemed to be very hostile to Li Zhang, and at this time he actually taught him a lesson again.

In fact, although Li Zhang is Zhao Zhen's cousin, his relationship with his relatives is too far away. Not to mention Li Zhang, even a relative like Liu Mei would not take it seriously.

Li Zhang was even more annoyed at this moment. He was about to fight back, but then he suddenly had an idea and smiled, "Lin Yishan said this, he must be a very knowledgeable person. Then the student would like to ask for advice on how high the sky is and how thick the earth is?"

Lin Yishan was just a metaphor, but Li Zhang caught the topic and asked it as a question, which made him stunned. Then he retorted: "It turns out that he is a person who has never read a book. I'm just an example, but you don't even understand this."

"Hahahaha~, the Master said: Knowing what you know, but knowing what you don't know, is knowing. It seems that Lin Yishan has read too few books, and he can't answer this question!" Li Zhang said deliberately, but he didn't want to have a conflict with the teacher of Zishantang on the first day, but the other party was aggressive. If he retreated now, he might be bullied by him in the future!

"Big and old, can you answer these two questions?" Lin Yishan finally couldn't pretend at this time and directly questioned Li Zhang angrily.

"Of course I know that the earth is more than 25,000 miles thick, and there is no fixed number of sky height. If the dispatch from the ground to the white clouds is generally only about ten miles. If the height of the ground to the moon, it should be more than 700,000 miles. If the height of the ground to the sun, it would be even higher, about 30,000 miles. Is Lin Yishan satisfied with these answers?" Li Zhang sneered and replied. After all, he was also an astronomy enthusiast in his later generations, and he was still very clear about these common sense numbers.

"You... are nonsense. I have never seen these numbers in books. Maybe you made them up by yourself!" Lin Yishan said again in anger, as he didn't even believe Li Zhang's words.

"Hehe, it's better to have no books than to believe in books. If Lin Yishan doesn't even understand this principle, then what book will he read?" Li Zhang immediately sneered and retorted again. Zhao Zhen next to him was also sweating profusely at this time, wanting to persuade him but he didn't know how to speak.

"you……"

Lin Yishan was angry and angry at this time. He was about to show the teacher's majesty, but suddenly someone outside said dissatisfiedly again: "Why are you quarreling? Zishantang is a quiet place for the prince to study. How can you quarrel?"

When Lin Yishan heard the voice outside, he was startled and glared at Li Zhang fiercely, but did not dare to say anything else. At this time, Li Zhang turned his head and looked, but found that Li Di, whom he had seen last time, walked in. Zhao Zhen said that he was in charge of Zishan Hall, but Li Zhang did not see him in the morning. It was probably because Li Di was busy with affairs as the prime minister, so he could only take time to come here to take a look.

"Li Shaofu, my cousin and Lin Yishan are just fighting for academics, so they can't be considered a quarrel!" Zhao Zhen was shocked when he saw Li Di come in and hurriedly explained to them, because he knew that Li Di had a rigorous personality and was worried that he would blame Li Zhang for this matter.

However, after Li Di came in, he looked at Li Zhang, then turned his head and stared at Lin Yishan with a bad tone, "Li Zhang just came here, he is young and ignorant, but Linte, you are so old, why do you have to be as knowledgeable as a child!"

When Li Zhang saw that Li Di actually attacked Lin Yishan, he was stunned at the moment. Then he looked up and looked at the other party quietly. He found that Li Di's eyes at Lin Yishan were full of disgust. It seemed that their relationship was not very good. In addition, Li Zhang also felt that Lin Te's name sounded very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere?

"What Li Xiang taught me is that I was just worried that someone would take the lead and ruin the prince, so I was a little out of control just now!" Lin Yishan was a soft cock. Even if Li Di pointed at him, he was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled flatteringly, not at all as arrogant as he had when he was just now.

"You are upright, so the students you bring out will naturally not be bad. Li Zhang just came here, so you need your careful teaching, not to find fault with him!" Li Di scolded him mercilessly at this time. It seemed that he didn't like Lin Yishan very much, and even criticized him with the matter of Li Zhang, and didn't know what grudges they had in their daily lives?

Faced with Li Di's scolding, Lin Yishan was careful to laugh. Li Di criticized him for not getting a response, and finally he couldn't say anything else. Then he turned to Li Zhang to teach a lesson, just to make him focus on learning and urge Zhao Zhen to study. Li Zhang also responded repeatedly. After all, what others said makes sense, and although Li Di was harsh, he did not deliberately target him like Lin Yishan, which made Li Zhang feel a little better about Li Di.

Finally, Li Di reminded Zhao Zhen again and was about to leave. However, when he saw Lin Yishan still standing there, he said unhappy again: "It's not time for teaching yet, is your Ministry of Works so idle and has nothing to deal with? What do you come to the prince here every day?"

"Yes, the official will leave now!" Lin Yishan didn't dare to refute, and after saying that, he left in shame. Li Di snorted coldly as he looked at his departure, and then left with his hands behind his back.
