Volume 1 Don't Look Back Chapter 2 Teachers and Students

The sky was slightly bright, and Qin Chuan's weak figure had already begun to jog around the blue-black wall of the Guogong Mansion. After two laps, his black shirt was soaking wet. I went back to the house and changed into clean clothes, then stood in the open space in front of the house, squatted down slightly with my legs, and put my hands in fists around my waist. Then he began to punch forward. About half an hour later, until Qin Chuan felt a sore back, he stopped his movements, moved his muscles and bones, and then took out the wooden basin from the room and began to wash.

As a modern person, Qin Chuan deeply understands the importance of a healthy body in ancient times, on the one hand, there was no advanced medical equipment and technology in this period, and a small disease may kill him. Another reason is that the Qin State is still martial, and he doesn't have a strong body, so he can't fight with people in the future, and he only has the share of holding his head and running around, wouldn't it be too embarrassing to say it. The most important thing is that you have to have the capital to grab beautiful women in the future.

So, from the first day he came here, Qin Chuan exercised for an hour in the morning. Because of this, although his body looks weak, it is very strong.

After a while, a guard came over with a lunch box, and after saluting Qin Chuan, he put the lunch box in front of the house.

"Is there a teacher coming to teach today?" Qin Chuan walked to the lunch box and asked the guard in front of him.

"Returning to the child." The guard, Lord Gongcheng Mugan, said that he was going to come over to teach today. The guard replied respectfully.

"It turned out to be old man Gan." Qin Chuan shook his head helplessly, waved his hand at the guards, and entered the house with the food box.

Put the food in the food box on the table, a bowl of gruel, two plates of pickles, and half a hard cake. Qin Chuan's face was a little helpless, he was growing his body, and his three meals a day were all pickles without oil and water, and there was not even a piece of meat.

Although Qin Chuan lived here alone, but Qin Guogong Yingqu Liang did not completely let him go, and left him to fend for himself, not only three meals a day were served and prepared, but also sent three important ministers of the court to enlighten and teach him, and the teaching materials were the six arts of Zhou Rites, including etiquette, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, and mathematics. The doctor Gan Long taught him five etiquettes and six music, General Che Ying taught him archery and royal cars, and an old man of the Yongcheng Ying family taught him calligraphy, painting and mathematics.

On the thirtieth day of January, a teacher was changed every ten years, and not only that, but every once in a while, Qin Guogong would personally test him for the exam. If you answer well, you will be rewarded.

Thinking of Gan Long's teaching, Qin Chuan felt a little helpless, the five rites in the Zhou rites are easy to say, that is, to understand the role of some officialdom positions, the etiquette rules of sacrifice, etc., although it is boring, but this can still be listened to. As for the six music, it gave Qin Chuan a headache, and what Gan Long taught was not so bad, but for such an elegant thing, Qin Chuan could not understand anything.

Qin Chuan is most interested in and learns the most carefully is the two disciplines of archery and horse taught by General Che Ying, archery is a skill that every nobleman must master, and he must be proficient, which is one of the necessary skills for picking up girls in the future. As for the course of the imperial car, Qin Chuan simply understood that if he wanted to travel to various countries in the future, he would not be able to ride a horse, so he could not walk step by step, and once he encountered danger, he could run faster on horseback. So this one must also be learned.

In the end, there are two courses of books and mathematics, for Qin Chuan, who has experienced more than ten years of exam-oriented education, it is pediatrics at all, and he can easily win literacy and hyphenation, and his level of mathematics is higher than that of the teacher, but in order to save face for the old man, Qin Chuan still patiently pretended to be serious and studious when the old man was teaching.

Since last month, the elder of the family has stopped teaching Qin Chuan on the grounds of being unwell, and Qin Chuan also knows the reason. The old man was not sick at all, but he couldn't answer his own questions, and he was afraid of making a fool of himself. The cause was just a prank on Qin Chuan's whim.

At the end of the class that day, Qin Chuan was playful, so he said to the elder: "Teacher, the student has a question, I wonder if the teacher can solve the doubt?" ”

The old man didn't care, nodded, and listened to Qin Chuan's question while packing up his things.

"The pheasant rabbit is in the same cage, there are thirty-five heads on it, and there are ninety-four feet on the bottom.

Hearing Qin Chuan's question, the old man stopped his movements and began to meditate, and then took out a wooden stick and kept writing and drawing on the ground, but after a long time, the old man still did not give an answer.

"It's getting late, so it's better for the teacher to go home first, and it's not too late to solve your doubts in the next class." Qin Chuan was very kind to persuade him.

Hearing this, the old man was ashamed, picked up the bamboo on the desk and left the Guogong Mansion, and since then, he has never come here to teach Qin Chuan a lesson. Later, Qin Chuan heard General Che Ying inadvertently say that after the old man returned home, he didn't know what happened, and he actually closed the door for half a month.

It was also for this reason that when Gan Long gave Qin Chuan a lesson, instead of praising Qin Chuan's intelligence, he also severely reprimanded Qin Chuan for not respecting his teacher, and he should be punished. So he couldn't help but punish Qin Chuan, and let Qin Chuan stand and listen to the class for a day.

Since then, Qin Chuan has no good impression of Gan Long in his heart. And Gan Long is even more direct, the professor's course is completely based on the script, regardless of whether Qin Chuan can understand it or not, he seems to have made up his mind to do business, and he brushes his sleeves away after the professor.

Gan Long was originally the senior doctor of the Qin State and held a high position, but since the beginning of the reform, the Duke of Qin has reused Wei Ying, which has affected his authority, and because of his opposition to the reform, he has become an opponent in the heart of the Duke of Qin. As the reform progressed, he was gradually pushed out of the center of power. Although he later personally wrote to support the change, Qin Guogong still transferred him to Yongcheng Mu and asked him to teach Qin Chuan on his behalf.

In this era, the hierarchy of the Heaven and Earth Monarch is very strict, and it is known that once you become a teacher, you will be involved with this person for the rest of your life. It is precisely because of this that Qin Chuan became a bad student who disrespected the teacher in Gan Long's heart. It is precisely for this reason that Qin Chuan will be punished involuntarily.

Gan Long's attitude towards Qin Chuan is not only because he doesn't respect his teacher, he is a dignified doctor, and the ups and downs of officialdom are not very important, he believes that Qin will compete for hegemony in the world, and he will definitely become a pioneer and important minister of Qin to expand its territory, and he has greater ambitions. But if he is too deeply involved with Qin Chuan, the illegitimate son who does not enter the temple, he Gan Long and the Gan family will stop here. This is the most fundamental reason why he is indifferent to Qin Chuan.

Gan Long has a strong sense of time, just after the time for breakfast, he held a bundle of bamboo slips, walked steadily into the Guogong Mansion, passed through Xiao Qiang and Da Zheng Palace, and came to Qin Chuan's three huts, and at this time Qin Chuan was already sitting in the middle room, waiting for Gan Long's arrival.

When Gan Long walked into the room, Qin Chuan hurriedly got up, waved at Gan Long, and said respectfully: "The student has seen the teacher. ”

"Hmm... Sit down. Gan Long nodded solemnly, he was still very satisfied with Qin Chuan's respect in his heart, at least he didn't embarrass himself. While speaking, he walked to the desk opposite Qin Chuan and sat down, and then spread the bamboo slips in his hand on the desk, and said in a serious voice: "Today's teaching course is "Chunguan Zongbo, Dazongbo""

"The position of the great sect uncle, the heavenly gods, human ghosts, and earth gifts of the state, in order to help the king build and protect the country..."Gan Long began to recite the overview of the great sect uncle in the Zhou ceremony without a trace of change in tone. And Lu Mu read a sentence by Gan Long, and he followed along. After reading the finished text, Gan Long asked Qin Chuan to read it twice, and when he saw that there was nothing wrong, he began to explain to Qin Chuan.

"The position of the Great Sect Bo began in the Western Zhou Dynasty, after the Three Dukes, one of the Six Secretaries, and was mainly in charge of state rites. The ceremony of the temple and so on. At the same time, it is not unimportant to be in charge of the etiquette and education of a country, and it is necessary to choose a person of high moral character and skilled etiquette..."

Qin Chuan listened to it boring and boring, but he also had to show the appearance of listening carefully and humbly seeking advice, otherwise he would be reprimanded by Gan Long and disrespect the teacher.

The two-hour teaching finally ended, Gan Long, who should have packed up his things and left, but at this time he sat behind the desk and did not move, Qin Chuan saw that Gan Long did not move, and continued to maintain a posture of sitting upright.

"You've been studying for so long, and the old man will teach you today." Gan Long rolled up the bamboo slips, touched his beard, and said to Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan saluted Gan Long and said, "Teacher, just ask questions. ”

Gan Long thought for a moment, and said to Qin Chuan: "Now that my Great Qin State is changing the law, Zuo Shu Changwei Martingale has been appointed by the Guogong as Da Liang Zao, and he is fully presiding over the law change, I don't know what you think of Da Liang Zao's change?" ”

Hearing this, Qin Chuan's heart tightened for no reason, and he had already thought of the answer between his thoughts turning quickly, stood up, bowed down and said respectfully to Gan Long: "The student is only a child, how can he comment on military affairs, besides, since the student entered the house, he has studied the teacher's teachings every day, and he has not dared to slack off, how can he know what the law is?" ”

Listening to Qin Chuan's immature words, Gan Long squinted his eyes and stared at Qin Chuan's bent body tightly, then shook his head and smiled bitterly, it seems that he is really nervous, and a yellow-mouthed child has to deal with it with his heart, wouldn't that be too low his identity.

"Okay, the old man just feels something, you are still young, and you really don't need to worry about these military affairs. Studying well is what you need to do. Gan Long said with some self-deprecation.

Then, Gan Long picked up the bamboo slip on the desk and walked towards the door.

"The student sends off the teacher." Qin Chuan bowed respectfully and saluted, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Gan Long nodded, just took two steps and turned his head, two cold lights shot out of his eyes, stared at Qin Chuan and said coldly: "Gongzi Qinchuan, the Guogong Mansion is different from other places, but please remember that your surname is Qin." ”

Hearing Gan Long's words, Qin Chuan's thin body, who was bowing down, trembled unconsciously, and said respectfully in his mouth: "Teacher's words, disciple remember. ”

With a cold snort, Gan Long flicked his sleeves, turned his head and walked out of the house, walking towards the outside of the Monarch's Mansion.

When Gan Long walked away, Qin Chuan straightened up, his face was covered with sweat at this time, and his back was already soaked with cold sweat. sat on the ground limply, wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeve, and was afraid for a while.

"Ganlong, you old horseman, you actually bullied children, and taught me Zhou etiquette, your etiquette is all fed to the dog." After yelling a few words, Qin Chuan's heart calmed down.

After calming down and thinking about it, I realized the danger just now.

Gan Long's sudden attack was something that Qin Chuan didn't expect at all, and the initial question was a test to see if he was influenced by other remarks, or to see if he was hiding something he didn't know. For example, it is subtly influenced by the change of law. Gan Long is a conservative, and the purpose of asking this question is to judge Qin Chuan's position, after all, Tong Yan is unscrupulous, simple-minded, and does not have so many scheming. It's also better to be tempting. If he said anything about changing the law at that time, whether he was for or against, Gan Long would definitely brand Qin Chuan as not a fellow believer in his heart. As the city pastor of Yongcheng, he has a way to deal with a five or six-year-old child, so Qin Chuan's life in the future will definitely not be so easy.

And Qin Chuan's ambiguous answer made Gan Long never make up his mind, so he had a final warning, asking Qin Chuan to remember his Qin surname instead of Win, which reflected that the Longxi nobles led by Gan Long did not recognize the status of the eldest son of the monarch of other countries and the successor of the Great Qin State in their hearts.

Sighing, Qin Chuan lay on the floor, and couldn't help but think in his heart, could it be that the contradiction had intensified to such an inextricable point?

————————————————

Although the Monarch's Mansion here is not as majestic as Yongcheng, and it is not even as large as the mansion of a doctor in other countries, it is very well guarded, and a team of sergeants are constantly patrolling around the Monarch's Mansion.

A fast horse galloped in from the city gate, quickly came to the gate of the Guogong Mansion, handed over his waist card, and quickly entered the Guogong Mansion, the armored sergeant did not go to see the Qin Guogong, but tossed around in the Guogong Mansion, came to the front of the Guogong Dormitory behind the Council Palace, took out a copper pipe from his arms, and handed it to a maid standing in front of the dormitory.

In the dormitory, a plump and graceful woman stood in front of a desk, holding a bamboo roll in one hand and a wooden board two fingers wide and half an arm's length in the other. A four or five-year-old boy reads in front of the professor word by word.

This woman is the wife of Qin Guogong, the queen of Qin State, Zhao, and the boy sitting behind the desk is Qin Guogong's son, who is looking at the bamboo slips on the table with an aggrieved face.

"Si'er, you are going to be the king of the country in the future, how can you be so slack off as the crown prince of the Great Qin State? Reach out. The woman said angrily to the boy.

When the boy heard the woman's words, he lowered his head and stretched out his little hand aggrievedly.

"Queen, letter from the old man." Just as the woman was about to swing the plank in her hand, the voice of the maid came from beside her.

"Hmph, I'll let you go this time, and I can eat after reading what I taught you ten times just now." The woman put down the plank in her hand, turned around, her face became calm, and her body exuded the majesty that belonged to the queen, and walked unhurriedly to the maid, and took the brass pipe from the maid's hand.

After retiring the palace maid beside her, she checked the seal on the brass pipe, and there was no trace of it being opened, so the woman stepped aside, opened the brass pipe, and pulled out the letters in the brass pipe. Seeing the contents of the letter, the woman's face kept changing.

Walking outside the door of the dormitory, looking at the darkening sky outside the palace, he turned his head to look at his son who was reading aloud inside, and the hesitation on his face gradually became firm.

When he walked into the dormitory, he lit the letter and threw it into the iron basin, a breeze blew, the corner of the letter was lifted, and a killing word appeared on the letter paper, which soon turned into a cloud of ashes.
