Liu Chang returned to the palace in frustration. The princes of the Western Han Dynasty had to go through a series of excellent educations, because Liu Bang wanted his sons to be more powerful so that they could "defend" the emperor in the future, so he carefully cultivated his sons.
The vassal kings of the Western Han Dynasty were not the vassal kings of the Eastern Han Dynasty. The vassal kings of the Western Han Dynasty must have the ability to govern the country.
This education is divided into two types. The first is enlightenment education. When the princes are a little older, they will gather together and start enlightenment education. The purpose is to be able to read and write. Of course, the prince is not among them. The prince has a prince and a tutor.
He specializes in education and does not hang out with other princes.
When the princes get a little older and become kings, the emperor will arrange for them to have a Taifu Wang. The Taifu Wang will teach these princes and kings more profound things, from etiquette to governing the country. If you meet a more powerful Taifu Wang, he can even teach you how to do it.
Fighting, how to have fun, etc.
Because Liu Chang showed wisdom when he was young, Liu Bang found a special person to teach him, and now, he will finally study with his other brothers.
Thinking of those unreliable brothers, Liu Chang sighed helplessly.
Currently, there are four people who are still receiving enlightenment education: Liu Ruyi, Liu Heng, Liu Hui, and Liu You. Their ages are not much different, just one or two years apart, and none of them have been crowned kings. They seem to have been crowned kings.
Liu Fei, his eldest son, had already been sent to his fief.
Liu Jian, the youngest, is not yet old enough to receive enlightenment education.
That night, Liu Chang was very depressed and couldn't even sleep well. He missed the days of future generations extremely. An era without mobile phones, computers, or even any entertainment activities was not like what is described in time-travel novels.
So charming.
Liu Chang only felt that he was out of tune with this era. He could not do anything here. Every day life was so monotonous, boring and boring.
The next day, he got up early, and after washing up reluctantly, he was taken by seven or eight eunuchs to Tianlu Pavilion, which was the royal library of the Han Dynasty. It was located in the north of the palace and was also where the princes gathered for enlightenment.
place.
When Liu Chang pouted and reluctantly walked into Tianlu Pavilion, everyone had already arrived, but the class had not started yet, and they were all waiting for him. It seemed that everyone had already announced that Liu Chang was going to study here.
knew.
The one who initiated them was a gray-haired old man. The old man was sitting upright on his knees in front of him, not squinting or even looking at Liu Chang. Seeing the old man's appearance, Liu Chang's heart froze.
What is the difference from the original?
Several half-grown men were sitting in the front, and their performances were different.
The boy sitting in the middle raised his head proudly. He looked almost like a copy of Liu Bang. Although the child looked normal to his father, it was too similar, as if Liu Bang's face was printed on a child's.
On the head, except for the lack of beard, even the moles at the corners of the eyes are exactly the same.
Not only the appearance, but also the demeanor, the free and easy look, this is a miniature version of the emperor.
He is Liu Ruyi. The relationship between Liu Ruyi and Liu Chang cannot be said to be that of a brother-in-law, but it can also be said that they are incompatible with each other. The two have been fighting since they were young, and the quarrels were the most hilarious, so they were often punished by Liu Bang.
When Liu Ruyi grew older and was unwilling to argue with this little thing, the two of them did not cause any big trouble.
Sitting on his right is Liu Hui. Liu Hui is a standard fat boy with a tiger-like head. He is grinning stupidly at Liu Chang. He doesn't look very smart. This guy has an honest character.
, is a kind-hearted person. He once helped Liu Chang steal beef at a banquet and took good care of his younger brother Liu Chang.
The one sitting on the far right is Liu You. Liu You has been frail and thin since he was a child, and he doesn't look like Liu Bang. The others can more or less see some shadow of Liu Bang, but this one is the only one.
, almost exactly like his mother.
His status in the palace is not very high, and his presence is not strong. He has always been very low-key, following his brother Liu Hui all day long, and does not like to talk.
Then there is the one sitting on the right side of Liu Ruyi.
After Liu Chang walked in, this person didn't even look at Liu Chang. His name was Liu Heng, and he was Liu Bang's fifth son. Logically speaking, Liu Heng's mother was not liked by Liu Bang at all, and her status was not the same as that of Liu You.
Pretty much, no one loves or loves him, even Liu Bang rarely pays attention to him.
But he was really different in the palace. He didn't look like a child at all. He couldn't play with the other princes, and he was incompatible with this group of children.
Liu Chang often bullied several other brothers in the palace. He even dared to bully the prince Liu Ying, but the only one who dared not bully was Liu Heng.
Liu Chang has always disliked Liu Heng. He felt that this guy was pretentious and loved to show off. A little baby pretended to be like a seventy-year-old. However, in Liu Chang's memory, he took the initiative to provoke this brother several times, but he always
I didn't take advantage and was rubbed against by the other party in various fields.
The other brothers, after being bullied by Liu Chang, often cried and sued their parents, but Liu Heng was different. Not only could he avoid Liu Chang's attacks, but he could also pull him to the queen and talk to the queen.
He didn't like the princes other than Liu Ying and Liu Chang, but he had a good impression of Liu Heng. Therefore, Liu Chang was naturally the unlucky one.
After Liu Chang became Liu Chang, he still had a trace of fear of Liu Heng in his heart.
When Liu Chang sat down, the old gentleman began to teach. It is said that the Qin Dynasty planted trees and the Han Dynasty took advantage of the shade. Although the literati of the Han Dynasty raped the Qin one by one, the teaching materials used by the princes were actually the prime ministers of the Qin Dynasty.
"Cangjie Pian" written by Li Si is the standard textbook for learning Xiaozhuan.
The Qin Dynasty unified the script, and the Han Dynasty perfectly inherited the Xiaozhuan script. Some people proposed restoring the original script during the founding of the People's Republic of China, but Liu Bang disagreed and made it clear that the Xiaozhuan script would be the only script of the Han Dynasty.
This enlightenment teacher did not want to take care of Liu Chang at all, and continued directly from where he originally talked. Fortunately, this did not have much impact on Liu Chang. After all, he had received professional education not long ago and could not recognize these words.
There is no problem at all.
Liu Chang soon began to feel bored. He held his chin with one hand, his thoughts already drifting into the distance.
The teacher ignored Liu Chang. This teacher was a Taoist. He was extremely indulgent towards his students and only disciplined them. He didn't care if you learned or not. Liu Chang just ignored the whole class.
"younger brother!"
Suddenly someone interrupted Liu Chang's thoughts. When Liu Chang woke up and looked forward, at some point, Prince Liu Ying actually appeared in front of him.
"How's it going? Are you still used to it?"
Liu Ying asked with a smile.
Liu Ying made a special trip to visit Liu Chang.
Liu Chang knew in his heart that this guy came to Tianlu Pavilion not to ridicule himself, nor to revenge himself, he just came to fulfill his duties as an elder brother.
At the beginning, when Liu Ying persuaded him to study hard all day long, Liu Chang had doubts about him. Is this guy scheming? Is he deliberately trying to get along with Corporal Li Xian and bring harmony between brothers?
But after being in contact with him for a long time, Liu Chang discovered that this man was a true gentleman.
He is kind to everyone, with almost no other purposes involved, and he also takes great care of his brothers. Knowing that Liu Ruyi likes swordsmanship, he gave the gift sword given to him by the emperor to his younger brother who competed with him for the throne.
, he knew that Liu Hui was honest, so he often sent people to call him to his side and asked if anyone around him looked down upon him.
He knew that Liu You was not taken seriously, so he would pull Liu You to sit next to him at every banquet.
He knew that Liu Heng liked to read history books, so he tried to collect a complete set of pre-Qin history books for him.
He knew that Liu Chang liked to eat meat, so he would share some of his meat with his brother at every banquet.
This is a gentle and benevolent king. To be honest, when Liu Chang first came here, he had imagined vying for a big position because of his spare time. However, after getting to know this brother better, he no longer had this idea.
If you think about it, there is a reason why the Han Dynasty could become a powerful country.
In Liu Chang's opinion, this elder brother is definitely a qualified prince, and he is far inferior to him in terms of personal ethics and ability.
After Liu Ying arrived, the princes stood up one after another. Even Liu Ruyi, who was bent on competing with him for the throne, stood up and stood aside, showing great respect to his elder brother.
Only Liu Chang was still sitting lazily in his seat, "What can I do if I'm not used to it? I'm just waiting for the day when I can be crowned king."
Liu Ying laughed softly and said: "This is also for your own good. You will be a prince in the future. As a prince, if you don't have the ability to govern a place, how can you let the people under your rule live a good life?
Woolen cloth?"
"After becoming a king, you may not be able to live as well as you do now. It is not easy for princes and kings to do it..."
"You must know household registration, farming, water conservancy, and warfare..."
"Registration matters..."
Liu Ying started to talk about the truth. The more she talked, the more excited she became. The old man teaching nodded happily. This is what a prince should look like. Those princes also acted like they were being taught.
Come on, the four old men who have been following Liu Ying couldn't help but clap their hands.
Speaking of which, the princes of the pre-Qin Dynasty liked to play this trick. They found a person with shortcomings, and then talked a lot of truth to convince the other person. It was best to make the other person enlightened, change his past mistakes, and then record the incident in
Historically...in the future this will become an elegant thing among scholar-bureaucrats.
But Liu Chang obviously didn't like this.
His eyes widened, why did the prince say more than those old gentlemen?
Liu Ying began to quote scriptures, telling various stories about people who were eager to learn, and about the heroes who turned back as prodigal sons. However, what he said was too complicated and too long-winded. Liu Chang's ears rang, and his expression changed from helpless to shocked, and then from shocked.
It turned into anger and finally despair.
"Okay, brother, I was wrong, I will definitely study hard... and become an outstanding prince and king!!"
Liu Chang couldn't bear it any longer. He hurriedly interrupted Liu Ying. If it were the original Liu Chang, he might really take action. He could finally understand why he was so annoyed by this brother. He had a good character.
It’s just that he talks a bit too much, and what he says is full of big principles. He always means the same thing, which makes him extremely irritating.
Liu Ying made a cowardly expression, smiled and nodded.
"Very good, I will come to see you again in a few days. I hope you can study hard."
"Don't...why don't I just study?"
Liu Ying left. Liu Chang looked at his back in fear, and then quickly looked at the old gentleman. He asked: "Sir, can I still study alone as before?"
