Don't think that only women will fight and argue with each other when they are together. The same goes for men when they are together.
There was a bit of sourness in Prince Yingchuan's words.
Several vassal princes were summoned to the palace together to accompany the prince in his studies. Whoever the prince favored would naturally be more prestigious.
Obviously, the prince liked Xu Jing the most. In addition to studying together, he often invited Xu Jing to have meals with him in the East Palace.
Xu Jing touched his chin with his hand, pretending to think deeply for a moment, and then replied with a serious face: "I didn't go out of my way to flatter you, maybe it's because I'm a naturally lovable person! Hahaha!"
Prince Yingchuan and Prince Xihe laughed together.
As if the joke was funny.
"What are you talking about, are you so happy?" A young man's voice sounded at the door.
The three princes and princes of the feudal lord smiled together and greeted each other.
The prince has been studying recently, and he is in a good mood. His dark yellow face is a little brighter than usual, and he said with a smile: "No need to be polite."
Then he smiled at Xu Jing and said, "Cousin, have you completed the homework assigned by the master yesterday?"
Xu Jing showed the article he had written to the prince and said, "It has been written a long time ago."
Xu Jing had been a disciple of Zhao Yuanming for many years. His writing was nonsense, but he had developed good calligraphy. As long as he didn't look closely, he could look at it at a glance.
The prince didn't know what was going on and boasted: "Your handwriting is quite good."
"Of course." Xu Jing never made a draft when he boasted, and just said: "My master won three yuan in a row, and he was very knowledgeable. He is a master of calligraphy and painting in the world. I am his favorite disciple, so of course I have to practice good calligraphy."
Prince Xihe almost vomited.
Prince Yingchuan smiled and echoed a few words.
The master came soon.
The one who came to teach today was Su Zhangyuan of the Hanlin Academy, who was the direct maternal grandfather of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Su Zhangyuan is a second-grade civil servant. In terms of talent and learning, he may not be the highest, but in terms of grade, he is very high. He is also the prince's maternal grandfather. When selecting a tutor for the prince, Su Zhangyuan volunteered and became one of the five tutors.
.
The prince was well taught by Queen Su. He respected his teachers and was never arrogant. When he saw Su Zhangyuan, who had white hair and beard, he immediately bowed and saluted: "I have met Taifu Su."
Xu Jing and other three princes also attended the ceremony.
Su Zhangyuan, who is sixty-five this year, has a refined and elegant demeanor: "Your Highness, the Crown Prince, please rise, and the three princes, please rise."
The prince sat in the middle of the first row, and Xu Jing sat next to the prince. Prince Yingchuan, the prince of Xihe, sat in the second row.
Su Zhangyuan first checked yesterday's homework. The prince is of course the top priority. As for the three princes and princes, as long as they don't cause trouble and don't cause trouble, it doesn't matter if the article is a little worse...
etc!
Su Zhangyuan's eyes fell on Xu Jing's article.
What kind of bullshit article is this?
Su Zhangyuan was filled with anger and asked with a straight face: "Is this an article written by the Crown Prince himself?"
"Of course." Thanks to Xu Jing, he still had the nerve to hold his head high and look proud: "My master won three yuan in a row back then, so I learned a lot. I have studied hard with my master for many years, and I have written splendid articles."
Su Zhangyuan: "..."
These ignorant and shameless people are actually Zhao Yuanming’s students!
The corner of Su Zhangyuan's mouth twitched, resisting the urge to curse, and pointed out a few points. Xu Jing pretended to listen for a few words, then interrupted Su Zhangyuan: "I understand everything. Don't waste your words, Master Su."
!”
Su Zhangyuan: "..."
Prince Xihe and Prince Yingchuan both lowered their heads and snickered.
The prince was also amused and laughed.
Seeing his grandfather blowing his beard and staring in anger, the prince suppressed his laughter and tried to smooth things over: "My cousin is more naughty when he is younger, so please don't argue with him."
Isn’t that right? If you want to argue with Xu Jing, you will be so angry that you will burst into smoke!
Su Zhangyuan could only wave his hand and let Xu Jing return to his position.
Xu Jing came back with brisk steps.
With Xu Jing as a comparison, Prince Xihe, who was also unlearned and incompetent, easily passed the test. Prince Yingchuan was not bad, he did have some talent and learning, and he was praised by Su Zhangyuan.
Su Zhangyuan gave a lecture to the prince and talked endlessly about the history of the previous dynasty.
Xu Jing stood the book in front of him without moving. After a while, the prince noticed something was wrong and took a quick glance.
At this glance, I almost burst into laughter.
It turned out that Xu Jing had closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Su Zhangyuan also saw it, and his lungs were about to burst with anger. He was about to open his mouth to reprimand, when he saw the prince shaking his head at him.
I don’t know why this bastard Xu Jing fell in love with the prince.
Su Zhangyuan suppressed his anger and continued his lecture.
Xu Jing slept more soundly amid the hypnotic sounds.
Strangely enough, as soon as Su Zhangyuan said get out of class was over, Xu Jing woke up and stood up in high spirits to say goodbye to the master.
Su Zhangyuan's eyelids twitched and he walked away.
Prince Xihe reached out and patted Xu Jing on the shoulder, laughing and saying: "You are really good at making Taifu Su so angry."
Prince Yingchuan also smiled: "Don't go too far. Taifu Su is so old. If you get angry, the prince will be the first to spare you."
Xu Jing grinned: "My cousin, that's not right. I was listening to Taifu Su's lectures attentively, and I was so absorbed that I accidentally met Duke Zhou."
The prince was amused and laughed.
He used to be the only one in the study, and it was so quiet that it was almost stuffy. When Xu Jing came, the air became lively.
"Chunsheng," the prince called affectionately, "I am going to Jiaofang Hall to have lunch with my mother, and you should go too."
Xu Jing was not shy and polite, smiled and agreed, and left with the prince.
Prince Xihe snorted softly from his nose.
Prince Yingchuan sighed deliberately, walked closer to Prince Xihe and said, "Xu Jing is still smart. He hugged the big tree of the prince tightly as soon as he came. Let's watch his glory from now on!"
Prince Xihe snorted again, a fierce light flashed in his eyes: "In a few days, I will find an opportunity to teach this boy a lesson and teach him some rules."
They are all grasshoppers on the same rope. Why did Xu Jing get on the prince's boat so early? They were not having a good time, and Xu Jing couldn't be happy either.
…
Jiaofang Hall.
The prince and Xu Jing came in one after the other.
I don't know what Xu Jing said, but the prince suddenly laughed. The thin and dark yellow face was a little brighter because of the smile.
Empress Su felt very happy when she saw this, and she became more and more kind to Xu Jing: "You are living in Bixiao Palace, are you still used to it?"
Xu Jingying was full of energy and had a handsome, hearty and cute smile: "I'm used to it. Thank you very much for your concern. My cousin invited me to come and have dinner with my mother today. Please don't think I'm noisy."
What mother could not love such a lively and lovely young man?
Queen Su pursed her lips and smiled, and ordered the palace people to prepare meals. She pretended to be casual and asked: "It has been five or six days since you entered the palace. Have you missed your Miss Zhao Liu?"
