Of course, the arrangement of the lecturer is very important, after all, when the prince becomes the emperor, the lecturer will rise to become a serious emperor according to the regular meeting, which is needless to say, as long as you refer to Gao Gong, Chen Yiqin, Zhang Juzheng and others, it will be clear at a glance.

Therefore, it is clear that the selection of the crown prince for the banquet is bound to attract the attention of the courtiers. Although Emperor Longqing is not too old, it stands to reason that he is in his prime, but considering that the emperors of the Ming Dynasty often have abnormal lifespans, it is still necessary to make the safest preparations.

At this time, since Emperor Longqing has already expressed the attitude of letting the prince respect his teacher, he can be regarded as having an explanation to the civil officials, and then he naturally has to talk about the specific methods of today's selection.

Long Qing turned his head, restrained his smile, and said solemnly: "Why do you Aiqing come today?" It is to choose a companion for the prince, so that the prince will not be too lonely when he goes out of the cabinet to study. All of you Aiqing are my cronies and servants or the children of their families, and they are not outsiders, so I will say some things directly. At that time, the emperor had some hardships, and I was enough of this loneliness, so I had always hoped to wait until the prince was ten years old before officially leaving the cabinet to study......"

He paused for a moment, and then said: "But Mr. Zhang's persuasion is sincere and reasonable, which makes it difficult for me to make a decision for a while. Later, Mr. Gao also deliberately talked to me about the prince's study, and analyzed the key to it. The prince's study is not only a family affair for my family, but also a fundamental event that affects the imperial court. I have a small body, inherit the unification, work hard, and dare not make times, how can I be the joy of the family and the joy of the world? Therefore, from the invitation of Mr. Gao and Mr. Zhang and the ministers, the prince was set to go through a feast, and on March 15 this year, the prince officially went out of the cabinet to study. ”

The ministers hurriedly got up, and together with Li Sicheng, Gao Pragmatic and others, they bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty Shengming." ”

Feng Bao also chanted the same words on the side, but he was disdainful in his heart, and said secretly: Your Majesty is holy or not, we don't know, but anyway, as long as Your Majesty is willing to listen to you, you will always say that it is Shengming, hum.

Long Qing waved his hand and said, "Although Shun promised Mr. Gao to let the prince go out of the pavilion to study in advance, he couldn't help but think about the prince, so he made a request to Mr. Gao, hoping to select one of the children of Chinese officials in Beijing to accompany the prince to study, and in his spare time, he had the intention of urging each other and avoiding the prince's loneliness." When Mr. Gao saw that I was sincere, he said, 'It's not a story, but it's human,' so he agreed. ”

Everyone secretly said in their hearts: So that's the case? It can't be said that Gao Ge Lao is not right, it is true that the children of Wenchen accompany the prince to study, it is not a precedent in this dynasty, but there is no precedent for the suffering suffered by His Majesty before he ascended to the Ninth Five-Year Plan. What's more, wouldn't it be right to let a group of martial ministers and nobles play with the prince before? If the children of a courtier are to accompany the students, it is much better than those gentlemen of the noble family who bring the prince badly. It seems that the old man of the high pavilion has not forgotten that he is a member of the Wenchen, not the emperor's slave.

Long Qing was happy when he saw that everyone had no different opinions, and then said: "However, although Mr. Gao agreed, I felt that this matter was due to my selfish intentions after all, and it would not be beautiful if the entire Beijing division was disturbed, so the scope of the final circle was a little smaller. I think that all of you Xiaoqing's family are outstanding people with family history, and you can be competent to do this companion. It's just that after all, only one person is needed to accompany the reading, so today I will take a slight test to correct the audio-visual. ”

Everyone came again "Your Majesty Shengming", Long Qing accepted all the orders, and said: "I think, although the prince has read some books before, but after all, it is not official...... Therefore, in today's school examination, I don't want you Xiaoqing's family to write those Cheng Wence and Strategy, and you don't need any poems and songs, but ask your Xiaoqing's family to put forward their own suggestions on the matter of 'enlightenment'. I have ordered someone to prepare the text and ink of the book in the side hall, and I ask you to complete it this morning, with no limit on the number of words, no limit on the rhythm, and no limit on the genre, but you can play it to the fullest. ”

Then he stretched out his hand and pointed at Shen Shixing and the others, and said, "These are your 'examiners' today, and they will evaluate what you and others have submitted according to the examination system." In the end, I will circulate and discuss with the crown prince and the concubine to give a final conclusion. ”

All the "examiners" received orders one after another, but Shen Shixing came out and said: "Holy Lord, the courtiers are also in the middle of the courtiers today, because the ministers know the handwriting of the courtiers, please avoid it." The six examiners are all from Hanlin and have a wide range of knowledge, which is enough to be selected by His Majesty. ”

Long Qing was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "If I don't allow it, I'm afraid that Shen Aiqing will rather die than obey, okay, I will follow the request of the Qing family, and the Qing family can stop watching and not comment." ”

Shen Shixing breathed a sigh of relief, saluted again, and bowed back.

Then Meng Chong was still waiting in the main hall, and Feng Bao led a group of children to the side hall to "answer questions".

When Gao Shishi left, he glanced at the prince, and saw that although Zhu Yijun looked solemn, he winked at him, nodded slightly, and couldn't help but say: Amazing, this kid has had a good acting skill since he was a child, how did he get it later in history and refused to act?

The topic of today's "exam", Gao Pragmatic is not worried, he originally thought that Longqing would put the topic in areas similar to "the importance of the prince's reading", "what is the most important thing for the monarch" and so on, but he didn't expect that Longqing may be really deeply affected by Gao Gong, very pragmatic, and only let the children of each family talk about how to open this enlightenment is the best.

Gao pragmatically said: What I originally planned to offer after becoming the prince's companion, it seems that I can take out a little bit today.

What he said wasn't soap, of course—it had nothing to do with reading and enlightening.

After entering the side hall, Gao Pragmatic sat down in his place under Feng Bao's guidance, and wanted to see what the rest of the people were, but unexpectedly, there were many screens separated here, and each person was left with about five or six square meters of space, in which there was a long case, on which the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were all ready, and even the ink had been polished.

Well, this treatment is much stronger than the imperial examinations at all levels, and it is indeed a royal exception.

Since he couldn't see other people's expressions, Gao Pragmatic simply didn't care what their situation was, and after he sat down, he spread out the paper, picked up the pen, and began to write.

"It is difficult for the minister to learn and use the classics; It is difficult to use the dictionary, and it is difficult to recognize it. Therefore, although there is a lot of literacy, I don't know what it means; Reading is familiar, but it is not understood by it. Therefore, the ministers did not make grand proposals, but compiled a study book for His Majesty's ministers, in the hope that it would be of some benefit to the prince's study. ”
