"It's good that I haven't come back." Wen Qi let out a big breath and asked again: "Auntie Shi, is the aunt here?"
"Of course." Waiti Shi replied again.
"Thank you so much, auntie!" Wen Qi saluted and thanked him, and then ran into the palace as fast as he could, causing Dai Shi to be very puzzled and ask the accompanying young eunuch: "What's going on, Mr. Sanlang? Why do you ask the officials as soon as you come back?"
Moreover, Saburo-kun’s posture when running is also very awkward.”
"Hey, Mr. Sanlang got into trouble. He ran back to tell the empress first and begged the empress to intercede for him when the official came back later. As for his running posture, he was ordered to be beaten ten times by the official at noon. Fortunately, he was executed.
The guards didn't dare to hit him too hard, they just hit him casually. If they hit him carefully, Mr. Sanlang would be beaten until he couldn't walk." said the young eunuch.
"What trouble did Sanlang get into? The official ordered him to be beaten?" Dai Shi was even more surprised. Yunxi had never ordered his son to be beaten before.
"This, well, it's hard to say even if you're young."
"If it's hard to say, don't say it. You can quickly follow and serve San Lang." Dai Shi is not a person who insists on asking questions. It's not good to know too much about the things in the palace. After hearing what he said, he stopped asking.
"Thank you, aunt." The young eunuch also bowed and thanked her, and then walked into the palace.
"What? Because you were fighting with your clan members in the school, your father saw you, severely reprimanded you, and even slapped you?" Xiyao said in surprise after hearing Wen Qi's words in the hall.
"Yes, aunt." Wen Qi stood in front of her with his hands lowered, not daring to raise his head.
"Did Yuan'er get into a fight? What did he do then?" Xiyao asked again.
"Second brother," Wen Qi was about to answer when he saw Wen Yuan walking in and said hurriedly: "Second brother didn't fight at that time. Not only did he not fight, but he tried to dissuade him. At that time, my father made everyone kneel down.
Let the second brother stand and answer. Madam, please ask the second brother for details."
"Mom," Wen Yuan, who had just come in, saw his mother looking at him and said, "My son didn't do anything. He just tried to stop them from fighting, but he couldn't stop them."
"This is very good. Not only did you not fight, but you discouraged others. Your father will definitely praise you when he comes back." Xiyao smiled.
"But you, Qi'er, how could you do such a thing! Whether it's your father, your mother, or I, we have all taught you to be respectful to brothers and sisters. Why are you still fighting in school!" She then ordered the maid to go.
He called Xiyi over and started scolding her head-on.
Wen Qi just stood there and listened quietly without any intention of refuting. Xiyao scolded a few words, but suddenly thought of something and asked: "Were you injured during the fight? Was it serious when you hit the board later?
Have you seen the imperial doctor?"
Just as Wen Qi was about to answer, he heard a shout from the side: "Qi'er, Qi'er!" He looked sideways and saw his mother running in with disheveled hair.
"Qi'er, how are you? Were you injured during the fight? Did the guard hit you hard when you were beaten? Did you apply ointment? What did the imperial doctor say?" When Xiyi saw Wen Qi, she ran over immediately, concerned.
asked.
"It's nothing, mother. My son was not injured during the fight. He was beaten later, and the guards did not dare to hit him hard. Of course his buttocks were swollen, but it was nothing serious. The doctor looked at it and applied a layer of medicine, and it will be fine in a few days.
Okay. It’s just that I can’t sit down these days." Wen Qi replied.
"Let mother take a look!" Xiyi felt a little relieved after hearing his words, but still felt uneasy and said again.
"Mom, let's wait until we get back in the evening to talk about it. There are so many people here." Wen Qi said a little shyly.
"Sister, what are you doing?" Xiyi only then paid attention to the other people in the hall and said when she saw Xiyao.
"Sister, since Qi'er is fine, let's not take care of the injury first. He must be very angry when he fights with his clan members this time. Hitting him ten times will definitely not relieve his anger. I'd better think about it when my husband comes back to blame Qi'er.
How can I persuade him?" Xiyao said.
"Yes, sister, you are right. Qi'er, why do you fight with others and who do you fight with?" Xiyi said.
"In the afternoon, Ziyi got into a fight with Uncle Yueshen because he didn't speak respectfully to his fifth uncle. Uncles Huiyan, Zhanhe, and Meigui also started fighting because they were on good terms with them. Ziyi met me during the fight.
Well, it just so happens that my relationship with Ziyi is not very good, so we started fighting." Wen Qi said.
"That is to say, you are not the first to hit someone, but the reason why you fight is because others bump into you while fighting, not because they want to hit you?" Xiyao said.
"Yes, ma'am."
"Are you telling the truth? If you tell lies, it won't match what your father will say when he comes back later, and I won't be able to plead for you."
"Auntie, son..." Wen Qi was about to speak when he heard a voice coming from outside the door: "What he said is generally not wrong. But I just realized that Wen Qi, you don't have a good relationship with Ziyi.
"
"Dad!" Wen Qi cried out.
"Husband." "Husband." Sister Xiyao saluted quickly and said.
"Dad." Wenyuan also hurriedly saluted.
Yunxi walked in holding Wen Yin with his left hand and Wen Luo with his right hand. He exchanged a few words with Xiyao and Xiyi first, then took the two children to sit down, and said to Wen Qi with a half-smiling expression: "That's it.
Firstly, you were fighting with Ziyi because Ziyi threw something at you, and secondly, you had a bad relationship with Ziyi. In this way, the logic of the matter would be clear. I mean, although you
I like to practice martial arts and compete with others, but I don’t want to hit someone if I get hit.”
"My son is wrong!" Wen Qi immediately knelt down and kowtowed and said, "My son is wrong!"
"Husband, of course Qi'er shouldn't start a fight with someone, but you have already punished him. The so-called "one crime shall not be punished twice" is what you said, husband, so don't punish him again." Xiyi said hurriedly.
Yunhe did not reply to Xiyi's words, but asked again: "Father wants to know why you don't have a good relationship with Ziyi?"
"Dad, I'm usually very soft-spoken. I don't have the temperament of a prince at all. I don't like practicing martial arts or military strategy. As a descendant of the clan, how can I not like these! And he..." Wen Qi listed it in one breath.
There are five or six reasons for not liking Zhu Ziyi.
"It is true that Ziyi's preferences are not very good. But this is not an excuse for you to fight with him! And his preferences are not good for the country at all? Your fifth uncle, you have Uncle Stew's contribution to the court.
You can see it in your eyes, how can you stop fighting because of this!" Yun He said.
"My son knows his mistake." Wen Qi said very quickly.
"Get up. Your mother is right. One crime shall not be punished twice. Since my father has already punished you at noon, he will not punish you again. But if you dare to fight again next time, your father will not let you off easily.
You." Yunxi said.
"Father?" Wen Qi raised his head in disbelief. Did my father let me go so easily?
"Why are you still kneeling? Father has already said that he won't punish you anymore. Stand up quickly."
"Thank you, father." After hearing this, Wen Qi completely believed that his father would not punish him again, so he kowtowed and stood up.
Xiyao and Xiyi looked at this scene in surprise. They have been married to Yunxi for more than ten years, and they supposedly know him very well, but they did not expect that Yunxi did not punish Wenqi again. Even though he said
Xiyi, who said "one crime shall not be punished twice", never thought that Yunxi really did not have two punishments.
Immediately afterwards, something even more surprising happened to them. Yunxi suddenly said to Wenyuan in a stern voice: "Wenyuan, Wen Qi's matter is finished. Now father wants to talk about your problem."
"Husband, Wen Yuan not only did not fight, but also discouraged them. What did he do wrong?" Xiyao said immediately. She felt that Wen Yuan did the right thing and there was no problem.
"Yes, husband, it seems to me that Wenyuan has done a good job." Xiyi also said.
"Wen Qi, if you were in Wen Yuan's position at that time, what would you have done?" Yunxi did not answer their words, but asked Wen Qi.
"Father, son, son should immediately call all the servants inside and outside the school to stop him, and at the same time organize those who are not fighting to retreat. It is best to retreat outside the classroom and give way to the classroom." Wen Qi thought for a while and answered.
"Wen Yin, what about you?"
"Dad, my son should ask Mr. Tao to dissuade him. Mr. Tao is a gentleman after all, and you have always emphasized respecting teachers. They will never dare to fight against Mr. Tao."
"Then what if Tao Wen is afraid that he will not be able to dissuade him, or that he will be resented by the clan and is unwilling to dissuade him?"
"The son told Mr. Tao: 'Mr. Tao, you are the teacher after all. They will never dare to attack you. If you step forward and stop the other person in the middle, and then let others hold the other person, they will be able to dissuade them. As for being resented by them,
Sir, my father sent you to teach the clan, but a fight broke out. Wouldn't my father blame you? If you could dissuade them, you could restore your impression in my father's mind.'"
"Okay, okay! Wen Yin, you said it very well!" Yunxi praised Wen Yin loudly, then turned to Wen Yuan and said, "Now do you know where you went wrong?"
"Father, my son is not as thoughtful as the third and fifth brothers." Wenyuan said.
"This is just one aspect!" Yunxi sounded a little unhappy: "What's more important is that you don't realize your identity!"
"If you were Wen Qi and Wen Yin, my father would definitely not criticize you harshly, but you are the crown prince!"
"As the crown prince, you will be the head of everyone in the school in the future. Being a head of the family means not only being fair in dealing with things, but also being able to adjust everyone's previous conflicts, and more importantly, make them all listen to you.
Be dignified. If someone refuses to listen to you, you must take drastic measures to subdue that person and not give him the opportunity to continue to provoke you."
"Father is here to tell you what to do. When you see someone fighting, you should immediately scold them to stop, then ask them why, scold the one who did wrong, and tell the one who did well: Don't fight easily between clansmen, as long as the other party
Didn't make the first move."
"If someone doesn't listen to you and doesn't stop, you have to deal with it decisively and call all the servants in to restrain the disobedient person. If the servants don't dare, tell them: If they don't listen to you, they will report it later.
Your Majesty will expel you from the palace or even kill you with a stick! They dare not disobey you. After subduing the clan members who do not obey your words, reprimand him severely! Then he will preside over the restoration of order, and finally report this matter to me, and
Tell me your opinion on how to deal with it."
"But what did you do!" Yunxi said with a bit of hatred: "Someone didn't listen to you, and they just tried to dissuade you instead of taking it down immediately. After that, they just begged for mercy. Of course it is right to beg for mercy, but you can't do it at that time.
Please plead with me for them. And my father heard that you helped them clean the classroom later? Isn't this what the crown prince should do! If you want to help them, you should also be the one who assigns tasks, assigning who sweeps the floor and who wipes the walls.
Assign who takes out the trash and who mops the floor last. Instead of doing the work."
"Yes, what the father said is that the son did something wrong." Wen Yuan did not fully accept what Yun Xi said, but he also felt that Yun Xi's actions could indeed prevent the incident this time, so he immediately admitted his mistake.
"Husband, Yuan'er is still young. These things are unimaginable and normal." Xiyi advised.
"He is fourteen years old this year, and will be fifteen after the Chinese New Year, so he is still young! And you always tell him that he is the prince, and he must set an example for his brothers and work hard to learn articles and military strategies. He should do all these things
Come to think of it, even if you can't do what your husband said," Yunxi said.
"Husband, please teach Yuan'er more in the future, and Yuan'er will naturally know what to do." Xiyao said.
"Hey!" Yunxi sighed: "Father, I won't say much else. You just need to remember that you are the crown prince, so you are different from others."
"Yes, father, my son has remembered it." Wenyuan agreed.
"Okay, father's words are finished, don't all stand, everyone sit down." Yunxi said.
Wenyuan and Wenqi bowed and sat aside; sisters Xiyao and Xiyi sat next to Wenyin and Wenluo respectively.
"Tell me a few more words." Yunxi added: "Do you think it is a bit harsh for my father to abolish Yuesan's title?"
"Father, my son feels that it is indeed a bit heavy." Wenyuan said.
"My son also feels heavy." Wen Qi also said. Wen Yin was young and was not present at the time, but he also heard about what happened in the afternoon and nodded hurriedly to express his agreement with the opinions of his two brothers. As a woman, Wen Luo, the school and the
The three brothers were not together and didn't know what happened, so they asked in a low voice. Yunxi explained, and Wenluo also said that the punishment was serious.
"Actually, my father also knows that the punishment is serious, but he can only deal with it this way. First of all, this is the first time a group fight has occurred in the school. If the culprit is not dealt with severely, but is let go lightly, there is no guarantee that others will not take it seriously.
If you don't care, you will do it again in the future; now that my father has revoked Yuesou's title, if they want to fight in the future, they will not dare to think of Yuesou's treatment."
"Secondly, the reason for the fight was that he was disrespectful to Uncle Wu and Youdou with his words. Later, my father heard what Ziyi said about Yuesou at that time, which was very unpleasant. If he did not deal with it seriously, not only would family ethics not exist, but also
He will make Uncle Wu and You Duo, You Cui unhappy, and also dissatisfied with his father. You know, among the people, disrespect for elders can be punished by death." 'And the father also wants to reuse Wu Shu and You Duo, You Cui, but
We can't let them be dissatisfied with their father.' Yunxi added in his heart.
"Thirdly, although my father didn't ask in detail at the time, since they had already started fighting in groups, it can be seen that there must have been fights before. Yuesan deserves a beating this time. He must have fought in the school before, so this time he will treat it as such.
It is to punish several crimes together. In the afternoon, my father specially called Chen Ji, who was in charge of Wucheng School, for questioning. He learned that he had indeed fought in Wucheng School, and he was not unjustly accused. Of course, for other people who had fought before
, now that the matter has passed, my father will not pursue it any further."
"Do you understand father's intention?"
"I understand." All four children nodded quickly.
"One more thing, Wenyuan, Wenqi, Wenyin, starting from next year, I will add another course in the school, military training. It means that you will go to the army and train with ordinary soldiers. The training method is exactly the same.
Even eat and live together to cultivate your sense of community. As for how to do it specifically, whether to take one day out of every few days or to gather together, my father has not yet made up his mind. But this course will definitely be added. "
"Wen Luo, you are a girl and will not add to this class."
"Husband, is this a little too early?" Before the three sons said anything, Xiyao said first: "They are still young, how can they be sent to the military camp!"
"They are not young anymore. Although they are smaller than the soldiers in the army, they are well-nourished. Wen Yuan is taller than a fifteen-year-old civilian boy, and Wen Yuan and Wen Qi are taller than a seventeen-year-old boy. And my husband thinks that military training
It's very useful to them." Seeing that Xiyao wanted to say more, he emphasized: "I have made up my mind, no need to say more!" (To be continued)
