Zhang Wu came from the Hou Mansion in the end, and just boldly looked directly at the imperial appearance, which was already the limit of what he could do, and at this time, when the courage passed, he naturally lowered his head again, trying his best to avoid seeing if Zhang Shou gave him any hints - although he felt that his answer should be not bad, but years of experience made him unable to build up too much confidence.

But he still tried his best to say in a calm tone: "My father and uncle all started from the army, and if it weren't for my father's bloody battles and sacrificed his life to fight, he would not have his current title and future." Therefore, the glory and wealth of the family is what my father deserves, and it is already a blessing for my children and grandchildren to enjoy it. ”

"Because if the father is still an ordinary soldier, then there may be no son like Chen. Even if the minister can be born, it is probably just a poor family who has been living up to the sky since he was a child, and has to go barefoot to farm, work and even beg to earn food at such an old age. How much my father gave me and how good he was to me, that was his heart, not his duty. ”

Even if his mother-in-law was very powerful, she only suppressed him, and never abused or assassinated him and other concubines. Compared with the messy deeds of other wealthy mansions, he was just ignored and left out in the cold. Father can still go from a small soldier to his current position, even if he doesn't have such courage and courage, but won't he even be able to get food and clothing in the future?

Zhang Wu said as he sorted out his thoughts that had gradually straightened out these days, and the scenes that were originally just purely for outsiders to listen to gradually revealed his sincerity. He suddenly turned around and looked at Zhang Shou deeply, and then said word by word: "Thanks to the teacher's teaching these days, I can be regarded as understanding." ”

Zhang Shou originally felt that Zhang Wu's words were just right, and suddenly smiled at this time: "Don't push everything on my head, you have such thoughts, it is because you have grown up yourself, and it is also because the classmates and friends around you have grown up, so everyone influences each other, and you will naturally break out of the cocoon into a butterfly." ”

Since they expressed their initial grievances, and said their understanding after growing up, they also praised him as a teacher by the way, and he really praised the students in all aspects? Who made this a really good thing to say! Although he does not fully agree.

And the emperor was used to seeing the open and secret battles between the eldest prince and the second prince, and when he heard Zhang Wu's answer at this time, he had even more mixed feelings. Although he had seen so many people before, several of them were far better than Zhang Wu, but he felt that he had just come to the scene, and the question he asked casually really brought a lot of gains.

"Well, that's good. I was surprised to hear such an answer! ”

He pushed the handrail and stood up, and actually took two steps back and forth in front of the throne: "In this world, most people who are concubines hope to inherit the family business after being a human being, so that they can raise their eyebrows, but most people have never thought that their fathers and grandfathers ...... Even the ancestors, how did this business come about? It's not a matter of hard work! ”

"Complaining about the injustice of the elders, what should be given to you was not given to you, in the end, you lost from the beginning. Because from the beginning, you put yourself in the position of the loser, and only the loser will babble and complain about injustice. I think that when the Marquis of Nanyang and the Marquis of Huaiqing were from pawns to both marquises, they have always been examples that countless people look forward to, but how many people know the hardships of rejuvenating life? ”

After the emperor finished sighing, he suddenly sighed again, and then sat back on the throne.

A concubine at the bottom of the ranking can still rationally give up the family business that is impossible to inherit, but how many of those sons-in-law who are at the top of the ranking can give up the temptation of the great family business, and how many can not complain about their father or even their mother behind their backs?

The eldest son complained that his parents had too many sons and divided the family property; The second son complained about why his parents didn't give birth to him two years earlier; The third and fourth sons may also be unconvinced, why should those incompetent brothers ride on their heads...... Any family has to spread its branches if it wants to continue its bloodline, but the result of spreading branches and leaves is often to compete for the family business.

Even if the system of this dynasty divides the family business equally, the ancestral house sacrifice field is not divided, because this is the basis of the clan inheritance.

Just as he was able to divide the property in the inner treasury equally among the princes, but it was absolutely impossible to divide the emperor's throne.

Realizing that no matter how much he appreciated Zhang Wu, he couldn't solve the problem that he found more and more intractable, the emperor finally felt a little unhappy, and then nodded lightly and said: "Zhang Wu, you work hard, I am very optimistic about you." ”

Zhang Wudeng was frightened and excited, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "The emperor praises falsely, and the ministers dare not be ashamed." What he said just now was the minister's true intention, but the minister actually couldn't do anything, and he didn't really think about what the future should be. The minister can only say that he will strive to follow the teacher to learn the principles of the world, learn how to deal with people, and learn how to manage the future. ”

Zhang Shou couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hand, then looked up at the emperor, owed a wry smile and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive Zhang Wu for the first time, so he is a little incoherent." He was telling the truth, but ......"

"Okay, don't do it, I heard it, he thinks you're a good teacher, that's fine." The Emperor smiled and nodded, and said with interest, "Isn't it great that you just said that he has many good friends, and he has also recognized you as a good teacher?" Only by having mentors and friends can we broaden our minds, which is beneficial to each other. ”

The emperor then asked Zhang Wu a few more questions, and finally suddenly ordered without looking back: "Liu Feng, go to the Dongnuan Pavilion, wash the plum blossom pen on my desk, and reward it to Zhang Wu, which can be regarded as my commendation of his virtue as a son!" ”

Zhang Wuden was stunned, especially when he looked up and saw Zhang Shou also showing a hint of surprise, he immediately realized that not everyone was rewarded, and his heart was ecstatic and uneasy. Then, the Son of Heaven gave him, and he didn't dare to resign, so he could only kowtow and thank him. When the pen wash, which was still a little wet even after wiping, was in his hand, his heart was even hotter.

This is a common thing for the Son of Heaven...... He's so lucky!

Seeing that after Zhang Wu got up again, his steps were clearly a little unsteady when he turned around and went out, Zhang Shou couldn't help but remind: "Zhang Wu, raise your head and chest, the more you look at your feet, the easier it is to trip!" Don't you want to drop the gift and make people laugh at you? ”

Zhang Wu came back to his senses, first stopped and took a deep breath to adjust his breathing, then turned slightly sideways and bowed his head to thank Zhang Shou for his reminder, and then strode out of the door.

Seeing that the curtain of the door fell and the person disappeared outside the door, Zhang Shou stood up and said to the emperor: "This gift of the emperor, when outsiders see it, they will misunderstand that Zhang Wu has entered the sacred heart." In case of some gossip......"

Before Zhang Shou finished speaking, the emperor smiled and said, "I have already had a unique Sacred Heart, otherwise how could I reward him for the pen wash I used?" He's a good boy, no matter how he used to be, but at least his heart is right now. Deyang's child has always been cautious, giving her a husband who is keen on the future, or unbridled, but it hurts him. I think Zhang Wu is good. ”

Zhang Shou was stunned. He remembered that Zhu Ying said that Princess Deyang's first impression of Zhang Wu was good, and Zhang Wu himself said that the lord was a blessing, but he didn't dare to expect it. So after thinking about it, he still asked Zhu Ying to make some things clear to the emperor. So now, is the emperor choosing a son-in-law with a fixed opinion, or is it really a coincidence?

Seeing Zhang Shou's stunned appearance, the emperor couldn't help but laugh. Why do you think I asked Zhang Wu this, didn't I listen to her side drum from Yingying? Since the person is not bad, then it is naturally decided. Thinking of this, he raised his voice and shouted, "All right, next!" ”

After Zhang Wu, it was Zhang Lu. Because the celebrant had already been instructed, the two of them were staggered, so he didn't meet Zhang Wu, and he didn't know that Zhang Wu, who had always regarded him as a difficult brother, had received a rare reward from the emperor. At this moment, he first saluted the emperor, and then cautiously glanced at Zhang Shou on the side, and hurriedly made a sideways gesture.

Seeing this scene, the emperor couldn't help but smile and said: "You people in the middle of the mountain, the Tao is respected by everyone, but I was not very surprised when I saw Zhang Qing." Why, did he tell you about it a long time ago? ”

This question is the same as the one asked Zhang Wu before, which is extremely sharp and tricky. Zhang Lu has always had a slippery temperament, but when he was about to rack his brains to prevaricate, he saw the emperor looking directly at him, and he panicked.

He subconsciously said, "Yes, the little gentleman told us a long time ago......"

As soon as the words came out, he realized that something was wrong. He didn't know how he suddenly made such a mistake when he was usually very good at adapting to situations, and he didn't care about scolding himself for being stupid, so he hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, the ministers and others have no bottom in their hearts about the face saint, so they begged Mr. Xiao to give us guidance, but at that time, Gonggong Chu came to pass the word, and we happened to be there, and then they stalked and asked......"

Before Zhang Lu could finish speaking, the emperor interrupted him, and then asked Zhang Shoudao: "They asked, Zhang Qing, you told them directly?" ”

"Because Gonggong Chu didn't say it, the matter should be kept secret." Zhang Shou said calmly, "Moreover, it was not they who stalked and asked, but the minister took the initiative to tell them." Then he drove them away. On weekdays, they are always said to be unproductive children behind their backs, and the minister thought that staying by the emperor's side at that time would give them a little confidence, so he simply told them earlier. ”

Zhang Wu suddenly panicked: "No, no, it's the little gentleman who can't stand us and keep asking, so he accidentally said something!" ”

"Sophistry!" The emperor pounded the handrail angrily, and saw that Zhang Shou got up calmly and shook for a long time, while Zhang Lu knelt down directly as soon as he gritted his teeth as if he wanted to plead guilty, he suddenly laughed, "This matter doesn't have to be kept secret, otherwise Chu Kuan wouldn't be waiting for a large number of you to meet Zhang Qing when a large number of people gather together." ”

As he spoke, he looked at the gray-faced Zhang Lu with a smile and said, "Zhang Lu, you are not small, in order to protect your teacher, you dare to play in front of me?" With your character as a teacher, if he doesn't want to say it, don't say that you are stalking, even if it is punching and kicking, you don't want to pry his mouth open! ”

Seeing that Zhang Lu's face simply turned from gray to pale, the emperor said lightly: "Heaven and Earth Monarch Teacher, do you count yourself as putting the teacher in front of the king?" ”

"Minister...... ......Zhang Lu trembled, and finally knelt down, his forehead pressed against the ground, but he didn't dare to say a word more.

Even if he felt that the emperor didn't seem to be such a strict person in the past, but the emperor was a kind of biological element, so Zhang Shou didn't dare to bet on what the emperor meant, he could only go to Zhang Lu and directly block people behind him.

"If the emperor thinks that Zhang Lu is wrong, first of all, it is also the minister's fault. The teaching is not strict, the teacher is lazy, please see that he is young and ignorant, and he is dedicated to defending the minister, and he is forgiving him this time. ”

Zhang Lu only felt that he was really stupid today, and instinctively raised his head and shouted: "Little sir, that's me saying the wrong thing!" ”

The emperor looked at Zhang Shou, whose face was still calm, and saw that Zhang Lu actually reached out to grab the corner of Zhang Shou's robe, so he coughed majestically: "Okay, I'm just trying the two of you." Today is not the right court, and there is no major event involved, how can there be so many mistakes. It's just that Zhang Lu needs to remember this lesson, one lie, you have to make up for many lies. ”

Zhang Lu already felt that the sweat was like rain, and when he heard the emperor's words, where did he dare to say half a word, and hurriedly kowtowed: "The minister remembers this lesson, and he will definitely not forget the emperor's teachings in the future." ”

"Well, knowing that mistakes can be corrected, and good is great. It's not wrong to be ashamed of His Holiness and take more of your own body, but the mistake is that you were intimidated by my power from the beginning and messed up. The emperor seemed to be very satisfied with the effect of this scare, and then asked Zhang Lu a lot of questions, and finally nodded and said, "Liu Feng, go and bring the Xuancheng Zihao on my table and give it to him." ”

Is there a reward? What the hell is this? Zhang Lu, who was full of sweat, finally realized that what is called thunder, rain and dew is Jun'en. He didn't even bother to raise his head to wipe his sweat, so he hurriedly thanked him, but when he received the gift from Liu Feng in a hurry, he thanked him again and stood up, but he stumbled because of a trance, and he didn't come back to his senses until Zhang Shou reached out to help him.

Feeling that hand squeezed heavily on his forearm, Zhang Lu finally threw away those confusions, but he was extremely ashamed in his heart. I knew that he should be frank and honest as Zhang Shou told him before, how could he be scared like that just now?

And when Zhang Lu retired, Zhang Shou calculated that there were six people next, including Zhang Chen, who was the first-to-last, and Zhu Er, who was the second-to-last, plus the other four, all of whom were prisoners of Banshan Hall, and they had all stayed in the Cuiyun room. At that moment, he said straightforwardly: "Your Majesty, all the next students are the minister's students, and the minister still avoids suspicion and doesn't speak anymore!" ”

"Why should Zhang Qing take it seriously? I'm just looking for another way, and I just want to take a good look at these post-born boys who were once considered unproductive. The emperor looked at Zhang Shou with a smile, and his tone was very sincere, "You can rest assured, I will not be scary in the future!" ”

You also know it's scary? Zhang Shou secretly slandered himself, but under the emperor's gaze, he didn't fight after all, but sat back down. The emperor rewarded Zhang Wu with a pen wash, the meaning is still very clear, you can reward Zihao to Zhang Lu, what the hell does this mean?
