Xie Cheng nodded: "Okay, then I will boldly teach His Highness."
Zhu Bai: "I'll come tomorrow."
Anyway, all preparations for the provincial examination have been completed, and the examination is just waiting to be held. In a short period of time, the Imperial College will no longer need him to inspect.
Guanya Bureau and Guanyinzhuang have already entered the right track.
He really needs a fair and upright reason to avoid endorsement, go to court and see Lao Zhu.
Lao Zhu also heard about Zhu Bai's fight in the Guanya Bureau today, and he was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
"Where did this bastard come from? He dares to act recklessly even in our territory, and even dares to attack our son? Come on, tell that treacherous son Zhu Bai to come see us as soon as he returns to the palace."
Zhu Bai was still hesitant about how to tell Lao Zhu about learning martial arts, but as soon as he returned to the palace, he was hurriedly called to the imperial study room.
Zhu Bai went in and bowed politely, then stood waiting for Lao Zhu to speak.
Lao Zhu stared at Zhu Bai.
Zhu Biao reminded Lao Zhu in a low voice: "Father, it is not the twelfth brother who is causing trouble this time."
Lao Zhu then snorted and asked Zhu Bai: "Were you injured?"
Zhu Bai said in a low voice: "No."
Lao Zhu: "Come here."
Zhu Bai slowly moved forward a small step.
Lao Zhu said to Zhu Biao: "You go first."
Zhu Biao did not dare to disobey the order and was worried, so he could only go out and stand by the door.
Lao Zhu asked Zhu Bai in a soft voice: "Where did the thief hit you?"
Zhu Bai said: "He has no chance to meet his son."
Lao Zhu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. If you lose, you lose. Victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs."
Especially since Zhu Bai has such a good mind, it would be a pity if he is weak in fighting.
Going to court, listening to politics, and endorsements should all be put aside for now.
Anyway, if something happens, it’s too late to rely on Zhu Bai to find a solution.
Zhu Bai lowered his head: "Oh, thank you very much, father. I will take my leave."
Lao Zhu was furious: "You rebellious son. Are you so brave now that you dare to fight against us?!"
Zhu Bai felt that it was almost done and couldn't make Lao Zhu angry any more. He then raised his head and winked at Lao Zhu aggrievedly: "I don't dare."
Lao Zhu stared at him.
Zhu Bai sniffed.
It's too cold outside and too warm inside, and my nose gets clogged instantly.
Lao Zhu couldn't help laughing: "Young man, come here."
Only then did Zhu Bai come closer.
Lao Zhu asked: "Why on earth are you unwilling to take over the money making business?"
Zhu Bai said: "The responsibility is too great, I am afraid of being scolded, and I have no money to make. It is thankless."
Lao Zhu sighed softly: "Although we leave this matter to your elder brother, we still want you to keep an eye on it to prevent your elder brother from being deceived. Just tell me what conditions you want if you take over."
Zhu Bai also sighed: "Whenever I see my eldest brother in trouble, I will never ignore him."
Lao Zhu was relieved and felt at ease.
In fact, he was not angry that Zhu Bai refused to work, but was worried that the smartest son would not help the honest boss.
In the future, when you become an adult, you will really have endless troubles.
Lao Zhu asked again: "How do you plan to help?"
Zhu Bai sighed: "At most, I will ask Guanyinzhuang to exchange silver for copper coins, and the people will not be afraid to accept and use copper coins."
Lao Zhu: "Okay. This is okay."
Zhu Bai said: "However, I have to make an agreement first. For the copper coins that I exchanged, my father will use silver to exchange them from my son and continue to use them. This will also save Baoyuan Bureau from casting new copper coins."
Time. Moreover, Guanyinzhuang cannot suffer losses and can only exchange at equal value."
Lao Zhu: "Okay, don't worry, we won't let you suffer, look at how stingy you are."
-----
Lao Zhu called Xie Cheng over again and told him about teaching Zhu Bai boxing and kicking skills.
As Zhu Bai expected, he said this to Xie Cheng: "As long as you are not dead or disabled, you can be punished as you please. Sir Xie, please don't be lenient. We will not blame you, let alone listen to Zhu Bai's complaints."
Xie Cheng felt relieved and hurriedly handed over his hands: "Yes. I will try my best to teach King Xiang."
Early the next morning, Zhu Bai and Zhang Fu arrived at the school grounds.
Before Zhang Yu came out, he told Zhang Fu that he must give way to Zhu Bai because Zhang Fu was one year older than Zhu Bai.
This inspired Zhang Fu's rebellious psychology: Why should I let him go? Just because he is the prince?
If we fight, we should fight. Do we have to discuss our identity first?
Xie Cheng did not intend for them to fight so quickly, but asked them to practice their physical fitness and strength first.
Let's run five miles each person first and then talk about it.
Zhang Fu just wanted to be faster than Zhu Bai and stared at Xie Cheng, waiting for his orders.
Zhu Bai jumped and stretched slowly before standing at the starting point.
Xie Cheng waited silently for Zhu Bai. He and Zhang Yu were thinking the same thing: Could this guy be afraid of losing, so he was delaying time on purpose?
Then Xie Cheng waited for Zhu Bai to stand up, and as soon as he gave the order, Zhang Fu rushed out like an arrow from a string, running as fast as he could.
Zhu Bai swayed leisurely, running back and checking the pulse of his left hand with his right hand.
Even Xie Chengdu frowned: What the hell, this is the first time I saw someone checking his own pulse while running.
Then Zhang Fu slowed down after running one mile, and Zhu Bai overtook him at about two miles.
Zhang Fu was unwilling to give in and tried to catch up with Zhu Bai, but unfortunately he was unable to do so.
When Zhu Bai climbed almost four miles, he passed him for the second time and finally accelerated.
Zhang Fu was so tired that he had no energy to get angry.
He originally wanted to give up, but his father was staring at him. If he dared to give up halfway, he would be beaten to death, so he could only grit his teeth and struggle to finish the run, and then slumped to the ground like a dead dog.
Zhu Bai wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Huh, we can go faster tomorrow."
Zhang Fu was so angry that he beat the ground.
Zhang Yu sighed and said to Zhang Fu: "Son, use your brain. Don't be reckless. How can you use sprinting to run long-distance running? You will definitely lose."
Before they could start the next item, five more people arrived: Zhu Shu, Zhu Zi, Zhu Tan, Zhu Chun and Li Jinglong.
In other words, Zhu Bai's four younger brothers and cousins are here.
Accompanying him were Erhu.
Erhu said to Xie Cheng: "The emperor said that if you teach one child, it is better to teach six children together. Since the last flag removal, several young princes have not practiced martial arts well."
Xie Cheng almost cursed: You are not asking me to teach them martial arts, you are asking me to help take care of the baby.
Even if Zhu Bai was alone, he could keep an eye on him all the time and nothing would happen.
Now there are so many naughty children, how to teach them?
If I had known earlier, he would have gone to fight with Lan Yu and the others, and there would be no need to stay in Yingtian and suffer this kind of punishment...
Zhu Bai also frowned: It was originally a one-to-one personal training with a sparring partner, but now it has become a tutoring class.
The five children were so excited that they surrounded Xie Cheng: "Master, master, what are you going to learn today?"
"Stick method or knife method?"
"Why don't we come and fight?"
Zhang Fu also joined in the fun and couldn't hold him back.
Xie Cheng's head was buzzing, as if he was surrounded by a swarm of bees.
He looked at Zhu Bai and asked silently: "Your Highness, do you have any good ideas?"
