:. At 2:00 on the fourth day of July, Zhang Yuan, wearing a red robe as an official, entered the imperial city from Dong'an Gate. Since the attack, the guards at Dong'an Gate have become much tighter. The cross-hand guards of the Fifth Army Camp must carefully inspect the people entering the city.
The identity tag must be inspected again when entering the Donghua Gate of the palace. Officials from the outer court must also have a Kanhe card when entering the palace. This means that the inner government of the palace will hand over the names and Kanhe cards of the officials and officials who want to enter the palace today in advance.
They are given to the guards on duty, and then the guards on duty check them one by one. The review is even stricter for those who temporarily enter the palace without receiving the Kanhe card in advance or who have the Kanhe card but have not registered in advance. This naturally adds a lot of trouble, but there are
Yanshan vanguard commander Zhu Xiong resigned from his post to serve the people as a lesson learned from the past. How dare the commanders of the guards be careless? The phenomenon of former guards impersonating themselves and leaving their posts without authorization was temporarily put to an end——
The big red robe of the official in the East Palace is very eye-catching. No one knows the new champion. Both the imperial city guards and the palace guards respect Zhang Yuan very much when they see him. The numerous gates can pass without hindrance. Zhang Yuan enters the Donghua Gate.
Gao Qiqian, the chamberlain, was already waiting for him. He crossed his arms and sang, then took the small book case from Zhang Yuan's hand and followed Zhang Yuan to the Wenhua Palace.
Zhang Yuan asked: "How has the emperor's grandson studied these days?"
Gao Qiqian hesitated for a moment and replied: "To be honest with Zhang Xiuzan, I have been depressed since I left the palace to study. I don't like studying, but after returning to the palace, I started doing carpentry work but never tired of it. I want to be here too."
Helper, I'm in a very difficult situation. If you don't obey me, I won't be happy. If you follow me, I'll make a fool of myself. One day when Master Chitose asks about my studies, I'll definitely get beaten."
Zhang Yuandao: "No problem, let me come and enlighten His Highness."
Gao Qiqian's face showed joy and he said: "My godfather also said that Zhang Xiuzuan must be a good teacher. Nothing can be difficult for Zhang Xiuzuan."
Zhang Yuan smiled and said: "Little Eunuch Gao, your godfather must have put a lot of effort into asking you to be the emperor's eldest grandson's companion."
Gao Qiqian said: "Yes, there are many people fighting for it. It was Godfather who begged Wang Gonggong to intercede in front of Qiantui Master."
Zhang Yuandao: "This is also because you are smart and studious, otherwise it would be useless for the king to intercede."
Gao Qiqian was very happy and said: "Thank you Zhang Xiuzan for the compliment. I will definitely work hard to be a good companion to the emperor's eldest grandson, and live up to my godfather's cultivation and Zhang Xiuzan's teachings - please read Zhang Xiuzan,
My godfather is waiting in front of the door."
Zhong Benhua greeted Zhang Yuan under the ancient cypress in front of the Wenhua Hall, and then led Zhang Yuan through the corridor to the main hall of respect in the back hall. The front hall was the lecture hall for the crown prince. In order to avoid wasting time with red tape, the emperor's eldest grandson did not use the lecture hall.
First go to the Wenhua Hall to meet the Crown Prince, and then go straight to the Lord Jing Hall to give a lecture to the Emperor's eldest grandson.
This kind of daily lecture is relatively casual. Except for the chamberlain of the East Palace, there are no officials from the Ministry of Etiquette and Honglu Temple present. Zhang Yuan waited in the palace for a while and saw the tall and handsome Wei Jinzhong arriving accompanied by the emperor's grandson Zhu Youxiao.
After greeting each other, they sat down. Gao Qiqian, his companion, knelt beside a small bookcase next to the emperor's eldest grandson. There was also a set of books and ink on the table -
Zhang Yuan asked: "Your Highness, which sentence did Zhou Lecturer mention in his explanation of "The Thousand Character Classic" the day before yesterday?"
Zhu Youxiao's eyes were dull. He obviously had no interest in reading, so he replied: "It is beautiful to be sincere and sincere at the beginning, but it is better to be cautious in the end."
Zhang Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Zhou lectured twenty-two sentences and eighty-eight characters in one day. Your Highness, please recite the words you have learned earlier in "The Thousand-Character Essay" first."
Zhu Youxiao then mechanically read aloud, and read in a low voice with Gao Qiqian. After finishing reading in a moment, Zhu Youxiao took out the "Three Character Classic" without waiting for Zhang Yuan's instructions and started reading. He stared at the book and read sentence by sentence.
It's true, but it's obviously absent-minded. Shaoxing proverbs "singing books and songs" and "taking a boat" refer to this kind of learning state.
Zhang Yuan couldn't help but shook his head and thought: "This kind of teaching is not good. The emperor's grandson is not a person who likes to read. Forcing him to sit here and recite 'Man's nature is good at first' will only make him anxious and impatient. It is better to let him go."
Go do carpentry work."
When Zhu Youxiao finished reciting the "Three Character Classic" and then started reciting "Hundred Family Surnames", Zhang Yuan said: "Wait a minute, let's stop reading here."
Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhang Yuan blankly, and Zhang Yuan said: "I won't learn new lessons today. Your Highness will ask me questions. You can ask me anything."
Zhu Youxiao's eyes were like a black and white picture gradually turning into color. Gradually he became brighter and asked: "Is it really okay to ask anything? Mr. Zhang?"
Zhang Yuan smiled and said: "How dare you deceive His Highness? Please ask His Highness a question."
Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhang Yuan, and after a while, asked: "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Sun didn't explain to me clearly why people want to become saints and sages last time. Mr. Zhang, tell me?"
Zhang Yuan did not believe his words and did not answer the first question, but asked Zhu Youxiao: "Can your highness play chess, or other games?"
Zhu Youxiao said with joy: "I know how to play the game 'Fall the City', which was created by my imperial grandfather."
Zhang Yuan asked: "What are the rules of this game, that is, how to play it?"
Zhu Youxiao said: "Mr. Zhang, do you want to play with the city? Great! Xiao Gao, please go back to the palace and get the toys with the city." When it came to playing, Zhu Youxiao was very interested.
Zhang Yuan quickly stopped him and said, "I'm just asking about the rules of the game of Falling City. Can your Highness tell you?"
Zhu Youxiao said: "It is just a piece of silk, embroidered with a tic-tac-toe, and then throw it with money. The one who lands in the frame wins, and the one who presses the line or rolls outside the frame loses."
Zhang Yuandao: "If the money falls inside the box, you win, and if it falls outside the box, you lose. This is the rule. Of course, this rule must be fair. Otherwise, if you fall inside the box or outside the box, you will win, and everyone else will win."
If you are losing, then it is not a rule, but you are acting randomly and being a scammer, so no one will play this game with you, right?"
Zhu Youxiao nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, then it will be messy, impossible to play, and boring."
Zhang Yuandao: "Your Highness is right, sages are people who set rules for this world. The rules set by sages can benefit all people. Only when people follow the teachings of sages can they live in order, peace and happiness."
Zhu Youxiao understood and said: "Then our world is like a big game. People in the game must abide by the rules of the game, otherwise they will be kicked out. If they don't abide by the rules, everything will be chaos, isn't it, Mr. Zhang?
"
Using a game as an analogy, Zhu Youxiao understood it quickly. Zhang Yuan nodded and said, "That's what it means. Sages include sages like King Wen, Duke of Zhou, and Confucius and Mencius who educated all people with morality, as well as people like Sun Wu who was outstanding in the art of war, and people with superb medical skills.
Zhang Zhongjing and others who can benefit the people and save the world in a certain way can be called the saints of a certain skill. Even carpentry has its saints, and that is Lu Ban——"
"I know Lu Ban." Zhu Youxiao replied happily: "Lu Ban is Gongshu Ban, who can make flying wooden kites and is the ancestor of carpenters."
Zhang Yuandao: "So becoming a sage means following the way of the sages. It is a process of continuous learning. With the goal in front, there will be nothing wrong if you walk on this path." Zhang Yuan said this last sentence with hesitation.
First, he didn't actually think so in his heart, but being an official in the East Palace is by no means that easy. If you say something deviant, you will be guilty of a big crime, so you can't say anything nonsense, and you have to be careful.
Zhu Youxiao nodded and said: "Mr. Zhang made it clear. I understand. Many people are on the road to becoming saints and sages. No wonder I said that I have never seen a living saint. It is difficult to be a sage."
Right, just like I feel like sleeping when I'm studying, and I feel energetic when doing carpentry and other games, what should I do, Mr. Zhang?"
Zhang Yuandao said: "I don't study and practice calligraphy all day. Sometimes I play chess, listen to music, and play various games. But I can't delay my business because of fun. There is nothing wrong with His Highness's hobby of carpentry. You should complete your daily studies well instead of perfunctory
Don't worry, when you do carpentry work, try to do it well, and when you study here, you should also work hard to read the book well."
Zhang Yuan was the first person to confirm that he was doing carpentry, which made Zhu Youxiao feel good about him and said: "Mr. Zhang is right, I want to study well and do carpentry the rest of the time, right?"
"
Zhang Yuan smiled slightly: "I only care about your studies, I can't teach you carpentry." He picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, opened the thin "Thousand Character Essay" and said, "Now I will teach you a new lesson."
Zhu Youxiao cheered up and listened to the lecture. Zhang Yuan could also teach the boring "Thousand Character Essay" in a very interesting way, which was very different from the lectures taught by Sun Chengzong and Zhou Yanru. Zhong Benhua on the side listened and secretly admired: "Zhang Yuan is really great."
He is a Kunpeng, and Xiaoke is a dove. He is able to release and retract, explain profound things in simple terms, and understand things deeply. Only those who have reached this level of reading dare to say that they have read through."
After talking for more than half an hour, Zhang Yuan stopped, praised Zhu Youxiao a few words, and asked Zhu Youxiao to rest for a while in the Nuan Pavilion of the side hall.
Zhu Youxiao walked to the Nuan Pavilion of the side hall and asked a palace official: "Where is Auntie Ke? Is Auntie Ke here?"
The palace attendant said: "The guest has arrived, she is in the inner room."
Ke Yinyue's voice sounded in the Nuan Pavilion: "Brother, come in, grandma has brought you manna cakes and five-color sesame seeds to eat - wash your hands first."
Zhu Youxiao washed his hands and went into the inner room. He saw the guest nanny wearing a pink gauze dress and a light red palace skirt, smiling and leaning in front of the window. The fan in her hand pointed towards the small case. There was a lacquer box on the case, and the box was already there.
Opening it, there were colorful snacks inside. Zhu Youxiao picked up a piece of manna cake and ate it while saying, "Mom, eat it too."
Ke Yinyue shook his head and said: "I don't eat. If you eat too much sweets, you will gain weight. I will lose weight. It doesn't hurt to eat more." Seeing beads of sweat on Zhu Youxiao's nose, he came over and fanned Zhu Youxiao.
Question: "Is Zhang Zhuangyuan teaching today? Brother seems a little happy?"
Zhu Youxiao said: "Mr. Zhang teaches very well. I am willing to listen to Mr. Zhang."
Ke Yinyue said "Oh", thoughtfully, and said nothing for a while.
Zhu Youxiao ate another five-color sesame, smacked his lips, looked at Ke Yinyue's bulging chest, and said, "Mommy, I want to breastfeed."
Ke Yinyue gently patted the emperor's eldest grandson on the head with a fan, and said with a smile: "How old are you, and you still need to breastfeed!"
Zhu Youxiao went to Ke Yinyue's side and begged: "Mommy, I really want to breastfeed."
Ke Yinyue pushed him with a smile and said, "Mommy, I have run out of milk for a long time. You have sucked all the milk."
Zhu Youxiao said: "Yes, there must be."
