"Brother, do you still want to study with Princess? But the Four Books and Five Classics must be taught by a master. Besides, if you have a serious master, you will also have haha beads." The queen called Yin'a and Ji Lan to Kunning Palace, and the three
Dine together individually.
After finishing his hard work, Yin'a glanced at Ji Lan. The little girl's eyes were filled with reluctance, and Yin'a was also quite reluctant to let go. It's not easy to have a playmate, and besides, he's looking for haha beads now...
"Queen Mother, can Haha Zhuzi stay with me in the first place?"
"This won't work." The queen thought for a moment before confirming: "Haha, Zhuzi will accompany you to study. He will go to the palace during the day and go home at night."
"That's no need." Yin A glanced at Ji Lan, "My sister's reading partner can't accompany her, so it's better for the two of us to read together."
He is a child who values friendship, but he is a child after all. He never imagined how important it is for his master to read with him. If he misses this time, he will have to wait until the prince grows up.
The queen suddenly had a "bad intention" and said with a smile: "If you don't want a master and a companion now, you have to wait until your brothers have grown up and the emperor gradually establishes a rule. One step too late, one step too late."
Do you really not want it now?"
"Sooner or later, it doesn't matter. Besides, Youdao is a late bloomer, and latecomers come first. What did the Queen Mother say?" Yin A looked innocent, but the Queen was stunned.
Ji Lan next to her was half-understood. When she left Kunning Palace and returned with the Queen's reward, she whispered: "You are the prince, don't delay your studies for me."
"What's the delay?" Yin A looked unconcerned: "Sister, don't you want me to accompany you to study? Let's study, ride and shoot together. When the younger siblings grow up in the future, they won't have the experience of being classmates, making them envious.
go!"
Although Ji Lan tried her best to restrain herself, she still smiled. Ever since she entered the palace, she had learned to think about things by herself, so she half understood what she had just said. She would never mention this to the queen mothers.
The queen in Kunning Palace was sitting in the second west room writing a memorial. Regarding a series of matters such as the deployment of personnel in the palace, etc., with the support of the Empress Dowager and the approval of the emperor, she had to write clearly and then submit a letter to the emperor. A formal memorial
Keep a record, this can be regarded as an example.
Regarding the establishment of a family temple for her deceased father, Bi Long, the Queen wrote with support that the War of the Three Feudatories has reached a critical stage, and Your Majesty has made the crown prince a prince to show the legitimacy of the country. But at this stage, where the Eight Banners need to perform meritorious service,
Please consider it, Your Majesty. If you want to stabilize the old minister's heart, it would be a good time to build a temple for my concubine's Amma.
The queen's petition was quickly approved by the emperor. Kangxi said that the queen was right, and I immediately sent people to prepare for the erection of a temple for the late auxiliary minister and the head of state, Bilong. I heard that the new scholar Mingzhu of Wuyingdian University
I also agree with this approach.
Mingzhu...the eldest brother's uncle.
The queen stopped practicing her calligraphy and thought of what the child said before. Was it a random thought, or did he really understand what she meant?
She has no children of her own, and depending on her physical condition, she may not have any in the future. To be honest, the queen is really disdainful of adopting other people's sons. However, the queen took out a list as a good sign and said
Maybe when I die, I will have this child to die for me.
"This is the reading list and book given to the eldest brother by the queen."
The chief eunuch of Kunning Palace came over personally and gave a stack of books to Yin. The eunuch said: "The empress said, these are all books from the palace. The textbooks compiled by the old Prime Minister Zhang of the Ming Dynasty for Emperor Wanli were reviewed by the emperor.
I found it when I was hiding books in the palace. This is the first batch, and I asked my servant to deliver it to my brother."
"Thank you mother for me. Go to Kunning Palace to say hello another day. I will thank you in person." Yin'a looked through it and suddenly asked: "Am I the only one who has it?"
"Going back to the eldest brother, they have been sent to the East Palace. They have also been sent to the third brother who is raised outside the palace. There are also big princesses, second princesses, and third princesses."
Yin A smiled and nodded, then asked Nanny Chen to reward the eunuch and put the book away with her own hands.
The textbook written by Zhang Juzheng for Wanli, Yin'a lay on the kang, picked up a copy of "Zi Zhi Tong Jian Zhi Jie" and read it. It was arranged in traditional Chinese vertically. It was a bit difficult but not particularly difficult. Yin'a was also used to it.
Looking at the vertical version of the book, I realized that Zhang Taiyue was indeed an all-around genius.
In an era where the entire general environment is Confucianism, it is not difficult for the two Jinshi to write personal reflections. It is possible to write in a simple and easy-to-understand manner, to explain and explain in depth, and to control the difficulty to a level that young people can understand.
Yes, this is awesome.
There are three books in total, Tongjian Zhijie, Shangshu Zhijie, and Four Books Zhijie. They are all explained in vernacular and basically cover the main content of study. Memorize these three books and thoroughly understand them, and cooperate with other homework.
At least you won't become illiterate.
The definition of illiteracy here is that someone else has written an article, but you don't know the usage and his true feelings... The standard is quite high.
Kangxi seemed to have no objection to the queen's arrangement. The eldest brother continued to study bilingual courses with Ji Lan every day at Cining Palace. Then Chengde was appointed by the emperor and took the time to meet with the teacher to give him a lecture. What he was talking about was
A Confucian classic.
In addition, Yin'a memorized three books quickly, and he made great progress in his studies. At least when Kangxi called him to check his homework, he memorized and recited the books fluently, and his handwriting was not bad.
Of course, in the eyes of a perfectionist like Kangxi, he said, "Well, I haven't checked your homework recently, and it seems you haven't slacked off either, which is good. However, you need to practice this word carefully and write it better."
You see, parents' education method of "praising you first and then finding fault" and hitting Tianzao with a stick has not changed much even three hundred years later.
Yin A obediently agreed, and then asked: "But Khan Ama, my son likes Ouyang Xun's Jiucheng Palace Liquan Ming very much, but he can't write that style of writing."
Kangxi was also a calligraphy enthusiast, but he preferred Dong Qichang's calligraphy. He felt that Dong's calligraphy was "very different in appearance. Its high, elegant and round shape was popular among Chu calligraphers and was beyond the reach of other calligraphers. Every time it is written carelessly, Feng
The spirit is unique, like the breeze blowing, the clouds rolling, and it is quite natural... The cursive script is also arranged vertically and horizontally, I really appreciate it... I copied it the most, and I have excellent skills in every calligraphy, so it is not easy to do it."
All in all, he is a Dong character blower.
However, it is natural for children to start writing regular script, and Ouyang Xun is also an excellent choice. But this question of Yin a stopped the emperor. To this day, calligraphy beginners are generally told to "hold the pen hard and have strong hands to write good calligraphy."
!”
However, the writing skills of ancient calligraphers could not be learned, which shows that wrist strength is not everything. Kangxi thought for a while, and faced his son's hungry eyes, he had to clear his throat: "Ahem, you learn the structure first, and then you can learn more about it later."
Some, with strong wrists, it’s never too late to think about the sharpness of the pen.”
Okay, don't embarrass others, young Kangxi's face is a little red.
No, you don’t know, you don’t know, and you won’t blush. This kind of character is really... living under such people, Yin A lamented again, this kind of perfectionism...
Wait, Yin A suddenly realized something in his heart, there is a prince in Xinuang Pavilion, what are you afraid of!
Now that he is still young, what he has to do is to let the emperor know that he is a good boy and he will be more tolerant of him. If he doesn't do it now, he will have no chance in the future and will be under pressure. With the crown prince here, it will not be his turn.
Because of the tight war situation, Kangxi had no time to take care of his son in the past few months. He was about to keep his son to eat with him, but saw that Yin A was lost in thought. He did not rush, but followed the eyes of his eldest son with interest.
In the past, it turned out that it was snowing outside.
Winter came early this year. The emperor sighed slightly and couldn't help but said: "The snow comes too early, so don't suffer any disaster."
"Khan Ama, auspicious snow heralds a good year. My son thinks next year will be a good one!"
The queen fell ill after winter and did not recover until the Chinese New Year. The imperial doctor even told the emperor privately that if the queen continued to be ill in spring, something bad might happen.
The palace was even prepared for the queen's death. The empress dowager and the empress dowager visited in person, and even shed tears several times when they returned to Cining Palace. Yin'a and Ji Lan were also told that if the queen passed away, they would have to do something.
A filial son and a filial daughter.
Unexpectedly, after spring passed, the queen actually recovered!
Queen Niu Hulu sat with Kangxi in the east and west, and below them were all the children in the palace, except Yin'a, Ji Lan, the five-year-old crown prince, four-year-old Wan Fu's brother, six-year-old Er Gege, and five-year-old Er Gege.
The 3-year-old San Gege also saluted the queen in Kunning Palace and wished her mother well.
When Yin A looked at Wan Fu, who had not changed his name, he remembered something he had heard in the past, which was the legendary influence of Yin Zuo on the crown prince. It was said that Yin Zuo was a symbol of the emperor's preference for virtuous concubines...
Well, according to this statement, the 按 黼, the emperor's seat, the meaning of the emperor's clothes, must be that the emperor loves the nobleman Nala's 喽!
It's really ridiculous. The emperor's choice of naming his son was just an auspicious word, and it really wasn't as important as ordinary people thought.
The five-year-old crown prince had already begun to study, and the open-ended child looked fair and cute. However, when Kangxi was talking to the queen, Wan Fu wanted to pull the prince's sleeves, and Yin A saw Yin Yi turning his head and staring.
He glanced at Wanfu.
Yin A frowned slightly and said softly to Wan Fu: "Brother, come here."
Wan Fu felt a little aggrieved and ran to Yin'a. Yin'a took out the handkerchief mouse that Ji Lan gave him in the morning and asked Wan Fu to pull the handkerchief mouse's tail. As soon as he pulled it, the cloth mouse moved forward, as if it could run.
.
The child tugged and tugged, finally throwing away his bad mood and starting to giggle.
"Your Majesty, look at them."
The queen saw clearly what they were doing and said with a smile: "The eldest brother can also coax the younger brother."
"After returning to my mother, my son did not dare to take credit. This is what my eldest sister gave me this morning, and it is also my credit to my eldest sister." Yin A smiled and told Wan Fu, "This is for you, go and thank your eldest sister!"
Wan Fu went over to thank Ji Lan, and Ji Lan also smiled and said that she would give Wan Fu a nearby toy in the future.
The emperor and the empress just looked at their children with a smile, but Kangxi paid special attention to the prince. His beloved son was looking blankly at the two brothers. The emperor did not know about the dispute between the children, and thought that the prince was just because he had never seen him before.
Brother, brother, that’s why I don’t get involved.
"Yinyi, have you recognized your brothers and sisters?"
The five-year-old prince was stunned for a moment and then said: "My son remembers it!"
His voice sounded like he was answering a question. Kangxi smiled, summoned the prince to his side, and said to the queen, "I think they look quite similar to each other."
"They are brothers." The queen smiled tenderly and said, "But I see that the prince's face looks like the emperor's, and the eyes of the eldest brother and brother Wan Fu are like the emperor's. They both have big eyes."
Kangxi tried his best to open his eyes wide and looked at the queen: "Do you really think so? My grandmother also said that my eyes are bigger than those of Taizong and the late emperor!"
Hey, Yin a feels a toothache, are you two flirting in disguise? The other children looked indifferent, but the little prince's expression was even worse.
