Chapter XXVIII. The Butterfly Effect 1
This small conversation that happened in this room did not spread, Zhu Youxiao is the person concerned, and he will not talk nonsense; Zhu Changluo is purely illiterate and can't understand these witty words, but as for Sun Chengzong, he didn't tell anyone for some reason.
After that, life was as usual, Sun Chengzong came to class as usual, and his attitude towards Zhu Youxiao was the same as before, as if the conversation had not happened that day, but the difference was that during his teaching, he would occasionally talk about various interesting things about the Ming court, and he said casually, but the sensitive Zhu Youxiao went to find that these interesting things covered a wide range of people's livelihood, economy, politics, military, customs, and customs.
For these things, Zhu Youxiao just smiled secretly, did not break it, silently absorbed and studied, and boldly asked questions when he encountered something he didn't understand, and asked things clearly. This kind of learning attitude makes Mr. Sun very satisfied. However, these are only a few of Mr. Sun's teachings, and most of the time, he is still educated in traditional Confucian classics.
Whenever this time comes, Zhu Youxiao will yawn and sleep, and he is very tired from practicing martial arts. However, our Comrade Zhu Changluo is different, he is in good spirits, because he can understand what Teacher Sun said. Every time he saw the diametrically opposed attitudes of the father and son, Sun Chengzong wanted to laugh, and only at this time would he remember that Zhu Youxiao's classmate was just a seven-year-old little doll.
However, what really made Mr. Sun depressed was not that Zhu Youxiao slept in class, but that when he taught Confucianism, Zhu Youxiao did not sleep. That's the real maddening.
"Sir, sir, do you know what the land we live in is called?"
"Shenzhou, Kyushu, or Huaxia." This is Mr. Sun's serious answer.
"No, no, this is just the land where our Ming people live, so what if it includes which Hu people, Kunlun Nu, and Taixi Kingdoms, rest in peace?"
Oh, I still know Kunlunnu, I still know the kingdoms of Taixi, and I know rest in peace! Although he wondered how Taisun knew this knowledge, Mr. Sun was a sincere person, and if he didn't know, he didn't know.
"The old man doesn't know, may I ask Your Highness, what is this called."
"It's called Earth, sir is so stupid, I don't know it."
Well, I'm so stupid. Mr. Sun, who was shot, was silently wept and was speechless.
"Sir, do you know why apples fall to the ground and not to the sky?"
"I don't know!"
"Sir is so stupid......"
"Sir, do you know what the shape of the earth is?"
"It's square, the old saying is that the sky is round and the earth is round." I still know this, Mr. Sun thought to himself, it's not easy, it's not easy to get one.
"Wrong, it's the earth that is round, sir is so stupid, and I still believe in the unsubstantiated speculations of those old men in ancient times, which is not rigorous at all, how can I be like a scholar."
Mr. Sun, who was criticized again, looked at the sky speechlessly, what is the shape of the earth that your family does as a scholar? Lao Tzu learned Confucianism, and he will cultivate Qi and rule peace, not dig the earth.
Mr. Sun swore that he had never been despised intellectually, and that he had been treated by a little doll of seven or eight years old, and that this little doll was still his student.
As for Zhu Youxiao, he secretly laughed, life was too boring, and flirting with the teacher was also a pastime.
In Sun Chengzong's depressed and crazy time, in Zhu Youxiao's life of studying and ridiculing, time, another year passed in the blink of an eye, and it came to the forty-first year of Wanli.
"Oh, my son is back!"
On this day, Zhu Youxiao just came back from the Wenhua Palace, and Wang Cairen greeted him with a spring breeze, except for formal occasions, the title within Zhu Ming's royal family has always been very commoner. Looking at Wang's watch, Zhu Youxiao didn't have to guess to know that she had won again today.
I can't go out in the palace all day long, and there are few entertainment activities at this time, these harem concubines and concubines really have no fun to kill time except for tearing and fighting and harming people.
"I've seen my mother!" Zhu Youxiao reluctantly stepped forward and saluted, no matter how he said it, this is his own mother, and he must be respectful.
"Oops, you're courteous." Without waiting for Zhu Youxiao to bow down, the Wang family pulled him up, touched him left and right, and was very happy in his heart, and his eyes were smiling into a crescent moon.
"Okay, mother, if you need any help, just tell me!" Sighing helplessly, Zhu Youxiao opened Wang's hand and said bluntly. He is already very familiar with this kind of trick, and whenever the Wang family asks him, it is like this.
"Youxiao, look at what you said, I can't come to see you if it's okay!" Seeing that his hand was removed, Wang said with some dissatisfaction, but this only lasted for a while, and in an instant Wang recovered again, and said hesitantly: "But don't say it yet, my mother really needs your help." ”
"Tell me, what do you want to help with?" Zhu Youxiao's eyes were white, and he had an expression that he had known for a long time.
"Hey, hey!" Directly asked her son to ask for something, Rao was a little hot with Wang's face, but she couldn't care about this, in order to tear up more exciting in the future, she directly put forward the conditions to Zhu Youxiao, "Among the three eunuchs around you, isn't there one named Cao Huachun, I like it a lot, give him to me." ”
Hearing this, Zhu Youxiao's heart couldn't help but become alert, and he squinted his eyes to look at Cao Huachun, who was obediently following behind. The latter was lowering his eyes at the moment, without any expression at all, as if the person the two were talking about was not him.
"Interesting!" A faint cold light flickered in his eyes, and all kinds of speculations flashed in his heart.
"Mother!" Zhu Youxiao changed his official title, "Since last year, it has been Cao Huachun who has been instructing you on how to deal with Xi Li." ”
"Yes, yes, it is worthy of coming out of the inner study, it is extraordinary, just a little pointed out to the mother, and pressed Naxi Li dumbfounded......" As he spoke, Wang's voice gradually became smaller, and finally turned into a sneer, "You Xiao, you know everything?" ”
"I didn't know, but as soon as you admit it, mother, you will know." Zhu Youxiao spoke at Wang, but his eyes were aimed at Cao Huachun, who still had a wood-like expression.
"Okay, okay, aren't you just a eunuch, school, are you still so stingy with your mother?" As he spoke, Wang turned around, beckoned, and asked Cao Huachun to take him away. Cao Huachun didn't say a word, just put the pen and paper in his hand on Wang Chengen's hand, and then followed Wang's honor guard.
Looking at this scene, Zhu Youxiao was silent and let the Wang family move, and even stopped Wei Zhongxian, who was about to come forward to reprimand. No matter what the other party has planned, at least let him carry it out, so that he can find the main messenger behind it.
"Let's go!" Seeing that the figure of his mother Wang Cairen gradually disappeared, Zhu Youxiao turned around and left here.
"Wei Zhongxian, Wang Chengen, don't you all know Cao Huachun's small movements?" After returning to his courtyard, Zhu Youxiao glared at the two kneeling in front of him.
The two glanced at each other, and finally Wei Zhongxian spoke: "Master Mingjian, the slaves and maids have discovered Cao Huachun's small movements, but Cao Huachun falsely claimed that it was your order, and it should be kept secret, so the slaves and maids ....... ......."
As he spoke, Wei Zhongxian stood up. Looking at his flickering words and chaotic eyes, Zhu Youxiao still didn't understand the reason. Of course, this is the reason why Cao Huachun lied that he had taken his orders, but more importantly, I am afraid that both of them accepted bribes from each other.
"Okay, Hongu knows." Zhu Youxiao waved his hand, interrupted Wei Zhongxian's words, and said: "You two go down, each receive thirty sticks, and be punished for half a year, if there is a next time, drive out of Ciqing Palace." ”
"Thank you for sparing your life, thank you for sparing your life." With the issuance of Zhu Youxiao's punishment order, the two of them were obviously relieved, and after thanking them, they were busy pushing down and being punished, like that, for fear that Zhu Youxiao would change his mind if he left late.
"Alas!" Looking at the appearance of the two of them, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help sighing, if it weren't for the fact that there was no one available, he couldn't wait to behead the two directly, regardless of his evaluation status in history.
"Cao Huachun, Cao Huachun, you really have the ability!" Looking at the empty room, Zhu Youxiao muttered to himself, but there was a trace of exhaustion in his eyes. He hated all this intrigue the most.
As for Cao Huachun, who followed Wang Cairen, his mood was not as calm as on his face, and he kept going up and down. He didn't know how he came to this point, he just secretly contacted the Xia Wang Cairen at the beginning, supported a few tricks, and put on a thread in case he needed it in the future. But who would have thought that his small actions were all seen by Liu Cheng, a close confidant of Concubine Zheng, and used to threaten him. Gradually, I fell deeper and deeper, and I got to where I am today.
"This woman is too stupid, it shouldn't be difficult to achieve her goal." Looking at Wang Cairen in front of him, Cao Huachun secretly thought in his heart, but then he sighed again, "I can only sell my life to the imperial concubine, I am afraid that I will .......... in the future."
As a little child, although he is the grandson of the emperor, Zhu Youxiao still has no right to speak, and any major events that happen have nothing to do with him, all he can do every day is to read books and practice martial arts. The days were quite boring, but fortunately, with his adult mind, he finally persevered and gradually got used to it.
Sun Chengzong's side is not able to come every day, but once every few days, whether it is Zhu Youxiao or martial arts, tempering his skills every day.
Entrepreneurs must lead by example.
When a person is immersed in one thing, time always flies quickly, and Zhu Youxiao is like this, a full life makes him not feel the passage of time at all, and even he feels that life will continue like this until the arrival of the murder case.
It wasn't until he was awakened by a piece of news that he realized that the world didn't work the way he wanted.
"What? You say Liu Shuren is dead? After hearing the news, Zhu Youxiao subconsciously raised the long sword in his hand in surprise and pointed at the little eunuch who came to report.
"I said that Wei Zhongxian, why can't that old man come, he must have experienced it a long time ago." Under fear, Wang Chengen scolded Wei Zhongxian in his heart.
After calming down a little, Zhu Youxiao also realized that he was wrong, and with a twitch of his hand, the long sword was withdrawn. Then he asked again: "How did Liu Shuren die." ”
He didn't know when Chongzhen's biological mother died, and he didn't talk about those things in the Ming Dynasty, but one thing is certain, that is, it is absolutely impossible for the Liu family to die now. A concubine prince who has no biological mother is basically impossible to grow up.
"I don't know!" Wang Chengen shook his head vigorously, almost turning into a rattle.
"What, I don't know." Hearing this answer, Zhu Youxiao's voice raised again.
"Yes, master, if it weren't for the prince's announcement, Xiao wouldn't have known that something had happened to Liu Shuren. It was said to the outside world that he died of a violent illness, and all the people in Ciqing Palace were warned that they were not allowed to talk nonsense when they went out, and only said that they had died of a violent illness. Looking at Zhu Youxiao's increasingly ugly face, Wang Chengen seemed cautious, always paying attention, and ready to keep silent.
However, Zhu Youxiao didn't react, but closed his eyes, his fingers pressed his temples lightly, and at the moment his head was a mess, and he couldn't think about anything. His heart was in turmoil. In the bottom of his heart, he vaguely realized that the butterfly effect he had brought had finally appeared.
