The naughty boy turned around and said, "I am talking to you!" Jia Jing lowered her eyes and said, "I don't know what His Highness the King of Yue is talking about." King Li Ming of Yue said, "I am asking you if you are sleeping standing up."
Jia Jing smiled and said: "Yes, I am sleeping." Li Ming stared at him and said, "Really? How did you do it? Can you teach me?" Jia Jing looked at this silly child with a smile.
Said: "His Royal Highness the King of Yue, as long as he imitates the braying of horses when meeting people from now on, he will naturally fall asleep standing up."
Li Ming was only a child of four or five years old. How could he know that Jia Jing was teasing him, so he said suspiciously: "Really? You didn't lie to me?" Jia Jing smiled and nodded: "His Royal Highness the King of Yue doesn't know.
This horse always sleeps standing up. I have some knowledge of the art of yin and yang, so I know some secrets. As long as His Highness the King of Yue starts from today, he will imitate the horse's braying when he meets people, and shout an urgent order like a law. Within a month, he will naturally
Then I learned the trick of sleeping standing up.”
The little eunuch next to him had to endure the hard work, but Li Ming stood up on tiptoes with satisfaction and patted Jia Jing on the shoulder: "You know the truth, by the way, who are you? Why are you in the palace?"
"He is the child prodigy Jia Jing!"
Jia Jing raised her head and looked at the person who was speaking, and saw a large group of people walking in. Half of the young men at the head were looking at him with a smile. When Li Ming saw that he was about to say hello, he hesitated and even neighed like a horse.
Jia Jing shouted, looking at the young man's astonished expression, Jia Jing couldn't help but laugh.
After all, Li Ming was a descendant of the Tian family. No matter how young or stupid he was, he knew that he was being played by Jia Jing, so he became angry and said: "You! You dog slave! You..." The young man scolded him sternly: "Old Seven!
Don’t be rude!”
Li Ming said aggrievedly: "Brother, he, he is playing tricks on me..." Jia Jing's eyes narrowed and her smile disappeared. That young man was the King of Chu, Li Qin, the eldest son of Emperor Yongxi. Jia Jing couldn't help but look at him, and Li Qin smiled.
Said: "You must be naughty again, otherwise what would Jia Jing do if he provokes you so easily?"
As she said this, she looked at Jia Jing. Jia Jing couldn't help but feel funny. She was clearly blaming her younger brother, but why was she looking at me? So Jia Jing smiled and said, "I just made a little joke with His Highness the King of Yue...
"Li Ming raised his cock and shouted: "Who are you! Are you worthy of joking with me?"
Li Qin stopped and said: "Okay! This matter is over here! Li Ming goes back to study! Jia Jing, don't say any more! Come with me and I will introduce you." Jia Jing looked calm, Li Ming
He was furious but had to sit back in his seat aggrievedly.
Jia Jing rolled up her sleeves and said, "I'm sorry, uh... I wonder who this is His Highness?" Li Qin was stunned for a moment and smiled and said, "I am His Majesty's eldest son Li Qin." Jia Jing nodded and said, "Oh, Your Highness, Jia Jing
Jing Jing was just ordered to study, and he is not worthy to sit with the princes, dragons and grandsons. Jia Jing should do his own thing first."
As he spoke, he didn't care about Li Qin's livid face, walked up to Li Ming who was wiping away tears, bowed and said, "Jing just made a little joke with His Highness the King of Yue. He never thought that before he could explain to His Highness... everything is Jing."
I hope His Highness the King of Yue will forgive me for my mistake."
Li Ming, who was always the youngest and most incompetent, had never received such attention before. So he sniffed a little at a loss, glanced timidly at his elder brother who had an ugly face, nodded and raised his head arrogantly and said softly: "
Okay, I forgive you..."
Jia Jing smiled, nodded to Li Qin, and stood at the door again. Li Qin smiled stiffly and then said softly: "Jia Jing, you don't have to stand at the door. Find a seat first."
Come on." Jia Jing bowed and said: "Thank you, Your Highness. However, it is Jia Jing's first day of school, and the tutors may not recognize me. I'd better wait until the tutors arrive before making arrangements."
No matter how good-tempered Li Qin was, he was still half a teenager. He was choked by Jia Jing again and again. No matter how good-tempered he was, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he sat on his seat and stopped talking to Jia Jing.
Jia Jing glanced at him, raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and said nothing. Several princes came in a hurry and glanced at him strangely, then went in to find a seat and sat down. When Jia Jing saw this, his smile became even brighter.
Waiting outside until dawn, many clan children looked at him. The girls from the clan who were rushing to Shuyi Palace for class in small groups were also surprised to find him, so they looked at the road with the girls who were in junior high and high school in the previous life.
There was a handsome guy smiling and pointing at him, usually in twos and threes.
Come to think of it, this group of princesses and princesses went to Shuyi Palace just like the girls' school until they reached adulthood or left the court. During this period, except for the brothers in the clan, they almost never saw boys. Now they saw him like this
Naturally, he was a little excited because of his good looks, but I guess it was just this time to see him, because from today on, Jia Jing no longer has to stand outside waiting for the master, and those princesses and princesses are not some stupid little girls who think that he looks extraordinary.
He took the initiative to join me, usually joking with his companions from afar before entering the palace, and nothing bloody happened.
When the bell of Mao hour just rang outside, he saw a man wearing a loose and old Confucian robe walking over, holding two books under his arm. He looked elegant and easy-going but high-spirited. He saw Jia Jing standing respectfully.
When he was outside the door, he was stunned for a moment: "You are..."
Jia Jing bowed and said: "Student Jia Jing, I have been ordered to come to study with you." The man was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Oh, I heard that, Jia Jing...have you read a book?
"Jia Jing bowed and said: "The student is ashamed that he has not read it. He only learned a few words and briefly flipped through the four books."
Jia Jing is telling the truth. He majored in history in his previous life, and his study of Confucian classics was still at the high school level. Although his memory is surprisingly good in this life, he can only recite a few famous sentences, and he can roughly understand what they are.
Meaning, but in ancient times when the Four Books and Five Classics were the basic subjects of the college entrance examination, this level was probably equivalent to the level of just enlightenment...
Stronger prodigies like Zhang Juzheng can already memorize prodigies at the age of three or four, so even though Jia Jing is said to be a prodigy now, he is actually very good at it... He is at most seven or eight years old and can write well.
, but other prodigies in history were much more ruthless than him. Can they all memorize the song "Ode to the Goose"? Many people also feel that this poem should not be praised so highly, and they also imitate and write what they wrote, such as "Ode to the Goose" and "Ode to the Chicken", feeling complacent.
It surpasses the original work of Ode to the Goose. As everyone knows, this poem was written by King Luo Bin when he was seven years old...
Seeing Jia Jing always lowering her eyes respectfully to receive instructions, the man couldn't help but look him over. After a moment, he smiled and said: "Such a person, such a person..." Jia Jing hurriedly bowed to show humility.
But the man laughed loudly, pointed at him, shook his head and said, "No wonder His Majesty sent you to me! With such a temperament, you are indeed worthy of my teaching!"
Jia Jing was a little confused, and the man said: "I am Zhou Huan, and I am now ordered to teach all the princes. Since you have entered Jingyang Palace now, you must be like other princes. After all, they are kings, and you are just my disciple."
When Jia Jing heard this, she said respectfully: "But it depends on your order." Zhou Huan picked him up, took him in with big steps, and said to a little eunuch at the door: "Prepare tea."
The young eunuch did not dare to disobey, so he hurriedly went down to prepare, but Zhou Huan directly pulled him in front of the princes and said: "This is my new disciple, and I guess I will only accept this one disciple."
Huan said and sat down on his own, tapping his fingers on the table and looking at Jia Jing with a smile on his forehead, which was full of sweat.
It was dull for a moment, then Li Qin stood up and said, "Taifu is joking, who here is not a disciple of Taifu? Even if you open a mansion in the future, you will definitely recognize Taifu." Zhou Huan waved his hand and said with a smile, "Hey, wait.
The identities are different, and I am just teaching you under the emperor's order, but this one is different. I value him very much, and since I taught him, I can't lose my status."
As he spoke, he looked narrowly at Jia Jing, who was sweating more and more. Jia Jing felt the various looks from the princes in the audience, including Li Qin, and couldn't help but feel pain in her heart. What on earth is this Zhou Huan going to do? Is he going to be publicly executed?
Didn’t you offend enough people today?
But Jia Jing did not dare to act or speak without authorization, so she stood there more respectfully and calmly. Lingchi, who was receiving the suspicious, guessing and jealous eyes of the princes, was living like the middle of the year. The little eunuch who seemed to have gone to Wuyi Mountain to pick tea and fry it finally arrived.
When he came back, Zhou Huan straightened his sitting posture and said, "Jia Jing!"
Jia Jing bowed and said: "The student is here." Zhou Huan said hurriedly: "Let's become my disciple." Jia Jing was stunned for a moment, then she had to bite the bullet and took the teacup handed over by the young eunuch, lifted up the hem and knelt on the ground: "Mr.
On top, student Jia Jing pays homage to his teacher." Zhou Huan stroked his beard with satisfaction, took the tea in Jia Jing's hand, took a sip, looked at Jia Jing with a smile and said: "Follow me back to meet your teacher before you go back today, let's
This is how my master-disciple status is decided. You are my only disciple and I will naturally teach you well. You are different from other princes, so I will teach you personally. Even though you are a prince and a prince, don’t feel underestimated by me.
with you......"
Jia Jing's face turned pale and she hurriedly interrupted: "How dare you! How dare you!"
Teacher! Sir! I beg you! Please shut up!
Jia Jing can now feel the frozen gazes of the princes, which makes Jia Jing, who has always been cautious and cautious, feel as if she has been stripped naked by Zhou Huan and thrown into the street...
What kind of person is Zhou Huan? Naturally, he saw through Jia Jing's situation at a glance. This was also the result of his own derivation, so he laughed and said: "Princes, please forgive me. I am happy to see you. Today I will review yesterday's homework. I want to
Test my disciple personally!" All the princes were numb, and it felt like the corners of their mouths were almost watering. They stood up numbly and respectfully sent Zhou Huan off. It was so good that Zhou Huan waved to Jia before leaving.
Jing followed, Jia Jing swallowed her saliva and followed Zhou Huan out, muttering favors and humiliations.
Jia Jing followed Zhou Huan for a walk around Jingyang Palace. Only then did Jia Jing take a look at this gentleman. Zhou Huan also felt Jia Jing's probing gaze but did not take it seriously. In Jia Jing's previous life, he held the position of Grand Tutor.
Most of them are posthumous titles given to those who have made outstanding contributions in history, to show that this person is a close minister of the Tian family and will not be treated as an ordinary minister. For example, Yu Qian and Yue Fei are both Prince Shaobao, and the Third Prince is Shaobao.
, Young Master and Young Master are all first-rank officials, while the Prince, Three Dukes, Taibao, Grand Master, and Grand Tutor are all serious first-rank officials!
Although there are two types of Taifu, one is those who only have a name and actually hold an official position in the court. For example, Yang Jirong, the chief minister of the cabinet today, is titled Prince Taifu, but he is not actually responsible for supervising and teaching the prince.
And Zhou Huan is obviously the second type, the kind of tutor who is responsible for guiding and educating the prince.
But Zhou Huan was right. Becoming his teacher was not an insult to Jia Jing. According to the information Jia Jing sent people to collect later, he was indeed a strange person. Zhou Huan turned out to be a child prodigy.
He was much more powerful than him. At the age of only ten, he had already won the first place in the boy examination, the first place in the provincial examination, and the first place in the general examination. He was only short of the palace examination to prove his title of winning three yuan in a row. He was recognized as the number one scholar.
He was unparalleled in the limelight, surpassing many young talents who were taking the imperial examination at the same time, and everyone in the world knew Zhou Huan's name.
But then Zhou Huan unexpectedly withdrew from the palace examination and disappeared from the scene, which made everyone feel regretful. Later, an insider said that when Zhou Huanzhong returned to the throne, bad news came from his family. Zhou Huan's parents died at the same time. Zhou Huan was sad and shocked.
He actually gave up the exam and went home. As a result, he was bullied in all kinds of ways and coupled with his poor management skills, he lost his family business and ended up living on the streets. In short, it was a very tragic experience. In fantasy novels, he would be a genius male protagonist.
The useless period, it’s just that Zhou Huan’s useless period was extraordinarily long...
Zhou Huan had been sinking for nearly thirty years. It was then that Zhou Huan, who was nearly 40 years old and had traveled most of the country, suddenly realized the truth. He suddenly realized the Tao in a dilapidated inn. From then on, his reputation became even better than before. No one among the scholars did not praise him.
He was called "the true Confucian of the time". I don't know where Emperor Yongxi fished him out and refused to let him directly join the cabinet. It was not that he was unworthy but that he was protecting him and was unwilling to let him be harmed in the political struggle. But when Hong Zhi waited
When the old ministers were almost cleared away, it was the day when Zhou Huan entered the cabinet to pay homage to the prime minister!
