Chapter 754 Spring Night is worth a thousand dollars?
"You can come out now."
After saying this angrily, there was no movement under the brocade quilt for a long time. Zhang Shou couldn't help but feel angry. The emperor and the third prince had already left, so what else could you pretend to be like? You were afraid that the emperor would kill him.
A back-and-forth? Do you really think that hiding under the brocade quilt can hide it from the emperor, who has both ears and eyes?
But then, he realized another possibility, that is, the boy had some suffocation problem because he covered the quilt too tightly! So, he immediately lifted the quilt and saw the expression on the fourth prince's face.
His face was red, but there was no pain in his expression, and he was clearly a little excited, and he was really angry about it.
It seems that there is really no need to worry about this naughty child, he is still alive and kicking!
"Teacher, teacher, what you just said is so cool!" The fourth prince rolled over from the bed and sat up, then grabbed Zhang Shou's hand, "Even the father was obviously stunned, otherwise he would
I never called you Ah Shou like I did to my son-in-law, like sister Yingying!"
Zhang Shou had not noticed the subtle difference in the emperor's title before, but when the fourth prince specifically pointed it out, he remembered that when the emperor just told him to read, he had indeed called him Ah Shou. Moreover, to the fourth prince
He could not deny the comment that the emperor treated him like a son-in-law.
But Zhu Ying was rude to the Fourth Prince's unbridled talk. She grabbed the Fourth Prince's ears again, but just as she was about to teach this boy a lesson for playing hide and seek on the wedding bed, she only heard the Emperor's words coming from outside.
The voice said: "Ah Shou, and Yingying, I will leave this kid to you two to discipline him. If you want to beat or scold him, please do as you please. I won't blame you."
The fourth prince, who was about to beg Zhu Ying for mercy, was completely confused. He did not expect that his father had indeed gone and come back, but he would come back again and again, listening to the corner, and even said such exaggerated words!
When he saw Zhu Ying letting go of her hand with a half-smile, raising her eyebrows at him, and then gearing up, Zhang Shou couldn't help but have a premonition that a mixed doubles match between men and women was about to begin.
However, normally he wouldn't mind teaching the naughty child an unforgettable lesson, but today was a different day, so although he easily caught the naughty child who was trying to escape, he also easily killed the person when he was trying to escape.
He fell down, but still coughed lightly to Zhu Ying: "Yingying, you can beat him any way you want to vent your anger in the future, let's forget about it tonight."
As he spoke, he changed the subject and said: "The emperor didn't mention the scene outside. I don't know if he knew about it a long time ago, or he didn't take it to heart at all... In short, today is a good day, so just leave this kid to Ah Liu.
.”
When the fourth prince heard the first half of Zhang Shou's words, it was as if he had been granted amnesty. But when he heard the last sentence, he burst into tears. It was worse than eating Coptis chinensis. As long as Zhang Shou and Zhu Ying did not take action, others would indeed
I didn't dare to hit him, but this other person did not include Ah Liu! He danced and wanted to beg for mercy again, but Zhu Ying had already called Ah Liu directly.
There was almost no gap between them. Ah Liu rushed into the house and immediately took the fourth prince away without saying a word like an eagle catching a chicken. But after taking him outside the door of the new house, before the fourth prince could wait,
The prince begged for mercy, so Ah Liu let go of the naughty child.
"It won't happen again."
The fourth prince was dumbfounded by these four simple words. When did his sixth brother become so easy to talk to? Could it be that he was a fake? No, looking at these words and deeds, it is indeed true. Could it be... for Zhang Shou?
Marriage with Zhu Ying, so Ah Liu changed his temper today? He was so happy that he immediately took the initiative to catch Ah Liu's temper, and then began to flatter him with saliva.
"Brother Six, dear Brother Six, I know you are the best! Don't worry, I will never join in the fun outside, but can you tell me about the situation outside? I heard the servants say when I came in before,
There are so many celebrities here, what is going on? How could they give the teacher such face?"
Before, Ah Liu told Zhu Ying, Liu Qing and Ye Shi the story that happened earlier through the door, but that was because he wanted to tell Zhu Ying, which did not mean that he would show off in front of others. Moreover,
, the fourth prince was chattering a little noisily, so he could only pick him up again.
"If you want to know, ask someone else."
Knowing what Ah Liu said, he must have told himself to ask Xiao Huahua and Xiao Cheng, but the fourth prince was not willing to give up. At the moment, it was just a round of talk, and all the good things were said. However, what he met was the unscrupulous Ah Liu.
Six, so Zhang Shou, who was in his new house, could only listen to the sounds of naughty children outside gradually fading away. Now, finally, there was no one to disturb the scenery anymore.
However, the couple still couldn't calm down for long, because as soon as the emperor and the fourth prince left, Chen Yongshou, who was presenting the awards, came, and at the same time, Chu Kuan, who is now the steward of Wan'an Palace, came. Very soon
Obviously, he came to deliver congratulatory gifts on behalf of the prince. Yes, it was not an award, but a congratulatory gift. The difference in meaning was enough to make those who were interested outside think about it several times.
As the emperor said before, the emperor's reward was indeed the two things he mentioned, a calligraphy and two sets of Taoist costumes and long hairpins, and the congratulatory gift in the name of the third prince was ten sets of ancient and modern collections
Treasures of the library.
For the sages gathered in Zhangyuan today, the first imperial pen is indeed rare, but nowadays the emperor can write well, and gifts of calligraphy are very common, which is expected; and the second reward they are confused about, and also
It can be ignored.
However, the congratulatory gift from His Highness the Crown Prince... can really make everyone salivate and feel crazy!
That is the Tongji Library of Ancient and Modern Times. Of all the books there, none of them are unique and rare. I think that when Taizu invaded the capital of the Yuan Dynasty, the first thing he did was to collect all kinds of ancient books, and even solicited them from the public.
Some nobles even escaped death by donating books... It was later said that these classics collected in the Ancient and Modern Tongji Library were compiled into books, but at that time, the Taizu who abdicated had already passed away.
And for this reason, the set of Sikuquanshu compiled by Ge Yong, the ancestor, and originally said to be distributed throughout the world and copied by officials and scholars, actually only one set was kept in the palace's ancient and modern collection library.
...It is far less popular than "The Complete Poems of the Tang Dynasty". God knows if the ten sets of books awarded to Zhang Shou by the prince are the original collections of certain volumes of the Sikuquanshu!
Therefore, at this moment, eyes of envy, jealousy and hatred are once again focused on Zhang Shou. In the past, what people were jealous of was his status and his face. Now... what these celebrities and sages are envious of is such a precious book.
, His Highness the Crown Prince actually regarded it as a gift and gave it away as he wished! But the most important thing is that this kind of thing can be given by His Highness the Crown Prince!
Does the emperor really trust the prince as much as the rumors say?
In view of the fact that some people's eyes were too fanatical, Zhang Shou immediately took Zhu Ying back to his new house after thanking him. Although he walked quickly, Ge Yong was immediately besieged - this siege
But instead of questioning, he rushed to give a very clear answer to what he just said in the lecture.
What made Lu Wan and Liu Zhiyuan at the same table look at each other the most was... someone actually offered to become a lecturer at a public school.
You know, Xie Wanquan and Tang Ming both received invitations tonight, but it was an extremely unfortunate coincidence that one of them got caught in the rain when they went to the Buddhist temple to offer incense with their newlyweds, and fell seriously ill. It seemed like a coincidence, but it was also because they met in the temple.
A former classmate was ridiculed and robbed of his wealth, saying that he and Yang Yiming cut off their ties and taught in a public school just to gain fame and had ulterior motives.
So Xie Wanquan got into a big quarrel with others in anger. He initially planned to stay with his wife in the temple for two days, but instead went home angrily. Only then did he encounter the menacing mountain rain and was unfortunately caught.
As for Tang Ming, it was a battle between Zhenghe and others - you know, this Tang Jieyuan was destined to win the examination next year, but when he was in Tongzhou and several provincial examinations in the same year, he was attacked by a scholar who didn't know where he came from.
Tang Ming slapped him in the face and recited an eight-legged essay that concealed the beginning and the end, mocking him for being a teacher and pretending to cling to powerful people. So in anger, Tang Ming responded with a perfect essay.
How can a person who can't read well come to ridicule others for educating the weak? What, you said you are good at reading? People who are good at reading don't give advice and criticize Fang Qiu, but they have to embarrass themselves.
A bunch of poor kids in a public school?
The coming and going was very lively. Lu Sanlang helped mobilize his bookshop and newspapers to help fight back. The public opinion war was fierce. Therefore, in order to avoid the war from reaching Zhang Yuanlai, Tang Jieyuan only sent a congratulatory gift.
Didn't come to the door.
Just from these two things and two people, we can see the hostility the public school received. But looking at the current situation, the emperor just instructed the prince to send Zhang Shou ten sets of books, and the effect was better than anything else!
Zhang Shou, who had fled, naturally guessed the scene of people flocking to him at the wedding banquet in front of him, but this was not his political plan in the first place, so he left it to Teacher Ge and others very irresponsibly. This was his wedding day
That night, he didn't even bother to think about whether the emperor had given him those books by lending the hands of the third prince, hoping that the prince's status would become more unshakable.
Therefore, as soon as he returned to the new house, he immediately lowered the door latch as he was lagging behind. Zhu Ying, because she saw her eldest brother during the award ceremony and found that he had not left yet, she couldn't help but feel a little weird, and she was actually a little slower at this time.
I came back to my senses only after taking the photo,
"Ah Shou, what are you doing? We haven't washed or changed clothes yet!"
"Yingying, I won't forget this if you don't tell me. You don't think I want to bully you right now?"
Zhang Shou was leisurely holding his hands. When he saw Zhu Ying suddenly turning shy and annoyed, as if she wanted to argue with him about the word bullying, he lightly changed the subject and said: "Although a spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold, in order to avoid anyone listening
The corner feels discordant, why don’t we have a good discussion along the lines of the emperor’s question just now?”
"For example, of course we don't have time now, but when we have time in the future, why don't we first travel around and visit famous mountains and rivers, and then settle down and go home to have a baby? As for the baby, it's better to have a daughter first, so that we can give birth to a baby later.
She, the eldest sister, is here to discipline her younger siblings? I always feel that for a serious eldest brother like your eldest brother, he is enough."
Zhang Shou actually used her eldest brother as an example, hoping to have a daughter in the future, but Zhu Ying was not surprised, but took it for granted. Judging from the attitude that Zhang Shou always showed, even if he is indeed a member of the Zhang family for several generations
The only seedling that is passed down alone does not seem to care that much about carrying on the family line.
Mrs. Wu, on the other hand, has always been very nice to her without saying anything, but she probably really hopes to have her grandson soon.
"Be careful not to let my elder brother hear this, otherwise he will argue with you tonight!"
"It's okay, it won't be tonight if he comes to me to argue. Ah Liu couldn't stop the emperor, and deliberately let the fourth prince come to see you. But if he can't stop your elder brother again, then he is too incompetent as a housekeeper.
"
Zhu Ying was just about to say that Ah Liu had transformed into a door god, when a gentle cough came from outside: "Don't worry, young master and eldest lady, I have driven them away. You can just cover yourself with quilts and talk until dawn. Even if
Master Zhu, even he can’t defeat me, the door god.”
What does it mean to cover yourself up with a quilt and talk until dawn? Zhang Shoudeng and Zhu Ying looked at each other. Zhu Ying even shouted angrily: "Ah Liu, what nonsense are you talking about, you bad boy? Who taught you this!"
However, her shouting did not receive any response, as if the outsider had become mute and deaf. Regarding such a change, even if she was filled with hatred, Zhu Ying would not rush out and grab the kid who had always been submissive to her.
After being beaten severely, she could only look at Zhang Shou bitterly.
"It's all you!" Seeing that Zhang Shou still had an innocent expression on his face, the eldest lady couldn't help but put her hands on her hips like a tigress, "Didn't you teach Ah Liu? Didn't he get it from you?
This kind of tone where you cover yourself with a quilt and chat until dawn, how come you taught me this!"
This time, Zhang Shou really had no way to refute. If Ah Liu made some dirty jokes, he could still blame Hua Qi and plausibly claim that he was led astray by that master, but Ah Liu just couldn't
I remember some of his jokes.
So, he could only say: "I was just teasing him, because this kid actually asked me, what is erotic painting..." Seeing Zhu Ying stunned, he sighed and said, "I can only tell him
, Erotic paintings are illegal, and if it is known to some Taoists, they will be slapped with a big label. Even those Taoists will have sex with their wives and concubines, and even go out to eat secretly."
"Some people speculate that things between husband and wife should also be considered forbidden. So, of course, on our wedding night, as Ah Liu said, we can only cover ourselves with quilts and just chat." Zhang Shou paused as he spoke.
Then he smiled evilly and said, "However, every loss must be rewarded. At least the good deeds done by the two of us will no longer have to worry about countless pairs of eyes paying attention to it. Someone must be beating their chests right now!"
