Chapter 42: First acquaintance with Taishi Zhao
Unexpectedly, the next day, the emperor casually found a reason to remove the crown prince Zhan Shi of his East Palace, and designated the peerless national warrior who was scolded by order yesterday to take over.
Bo Lingjun has been here for three months, and he has never dealt with the crown prince Zhan Shi, in fact, he didn't know that there was such an official position until today.
The emperor still gave face, and asked him with a cold face if he had any opinions - but it was written in his eyes: "If you have an opinion, you can hold it back for Lao Tzu!" β
Thinking of the queen's admonition, Bo Ling didn't dare to express his opinion rashly, and after thinking about it, he couldn't say that he would go back and think about it, so he said humbly: "It's all up to my father!" β
The emperor snorted and said mockingly: "Then the prince will lie down and wait for his father to call the shots for you!" β
Damn-it's true that with a stepmother, there is a stepfather.
This is a cynicism that wastes no time!
But fortunately, he had a big heart, and said with a hippie smile: "Son, thank you for your father's favor!" β
The emperor choked on him, rolled over the dragon's eyes, and scattered away!
Out of the front hall, a burly middle-aged official with a three-foot beard followed him not far away, until he got into the carriage, he took a few steps forward and said a few words to Jiang Diexi.
Qingye said through the car window: "Your Highness, Prince Zhan Shi has come to resign to you!" β
Oh, so this is Prince Zhan.
Bo Lingjun hurriedly got out of the car, feeling guilty!
I've never met, and when I see them, I'm going to Sayanara!
It's really a deep relationship!
The crown prince Zhan Shi put himself in a position, bowed respectfully to him, and said: "The minister is incompetent and cannot serve His Highness, and now he wants to return to his hometown to farm, and he has come to bid farewell to His Highness." May Your Highness live a long and healthy life, and all worries will not be invaded! β
Bo Lingjun cleared his throat - although he was not familiar with the ancient text, this farewell speech could still be heard a little awkward!
And the crown prince Zhan Shi looked calm and serene, without the slightest sadness of being forced to go back to his hometown...... It doesn't look like the prince's!
"Well, Aiqing has a good trip!"
Prince Zhan Shi nodded and retired, and left like a gust of wind, and as soon as he left the palace gate, he almost didn't jump up!
Bo Lingjun boarded the carriage and went straight to his teacher's house.
Zhao Taishi's mansion is located in the bustling area of Jimo Street, next to the Xizhou Market, where music is gathered.
As he passed by these star-studded places, he couldn't help but lift the curtains and look around.
The Bands usually open in the afternoon, when they are deserted.
Occasionally, a few beautiful young ladies can be seen shopping on the street.
However, most of them were wearing simple cloth clothes, and there were no fans around them.
Real celebrities don't dare to go out easily, for fear of being pulled and surrounded by illegitimate meals.
Bo Lingjun secretly made up his mind that one day he would have to take Qingye and Chu Feng to Lefang to see it.
After turning the street, he came to the mansion of Taishi Zhao, Jiang Diexi went over to communicate with the servant - because it was the prince who came to visit, he didn't dare to slack off, and the housekeeper opened the door first and welcomed them in ceremoniously.
Inside, Taishi Zhao got the news, hurriedly changed his clothes, and came out to greet him in a hurry with a crutch.
As soon as he walked out of the inner courtyard, he saw His Royal Highness wearing a capable brocade robe and walking over vigorously.
Master Zhao rubbed his eyes, thinking that he had seen something wrong for a while.
When he came to him, the prince bowed down and gave him a teacher-student salute with a humble face...... The face is still the same face, and the size is not bad, but the expressions and movements are very unfamiliar.
Taishi Zhao returned the gift to the prince and cautiously looked at the person in front of him.
He taught His Royal Highness for four years, and the first three years were painstaking, carefully irrigated, and always felt that human nature was good, and no matter how twisted the little saplings could be straightened over, it was a pity that in the fourth year, he was surprised to find that some seedlings were born deformed, which was brought by the roots, and could not be broken!
However, compared to those two colleagues, he is still a caring teacher - he has been together day and night for more than four years, and he has already figured out this criminal, so at a glance, he is immediately 100% sure: this is not his own student!
The master and apprentice walked side by side to the guest room, and Taishi Zhao found that the entourage around the prince was also different, they were expressionless and timid in their eyes before, but now these two young people have smart expressions, and they still look at the prince presumptuously from time to time, and even Jiang Diexi, who has always been cautious in words and deeds, is relaxed and takes a step.
Entering the guest room, the servant came up to make tea and brought a plate of seasonal vegetables and fruits.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's dark eyes swirled, and he picked out sweet persimmons from the pile of fruits and vegetables and ate them.
Taishi Zhao hurriedly took one from the fruit plate in front of him and ate it with him.
After eating, the prince picked up the handkerchief next to him and wiped his mouth competently...... wiped his mouth......
Taishi Zhao glanced at the guards, pretended to be confused, and asked, "Your Highness, why don't you see the Seven Princes of Dayan coming?" β
Bo Lingjun was asked.
Why do you mention the protagonist inexplicably?
Look at the old lady's eyes slightly narrowed, looking drowsy.
But judging from his behavior of eating fruit with him, he shouldn't be stupid!
He said cautiously: "His Royal Highness the Seventh has been busy preparing for the marriage recentlyβhas the senior commander heard about it?" β
The crown prince skillfully concealed the marriage partner of the Seventh Highness.
The daughter of the king of Zhongshan was originally the daughter of the crown prince, but she was suddenly married by the emperor to the seven princes of Dayan, which is very strange.
For a while, gossip was flying all over the sky, some said that the emperor intended to make peace with Dayan, and some people said that the daughter of the king of Zhongshan was unruly, did ugly things, and was disgusted by the prince, so she was sent to Li Hangxing.
Zhao Taishi felt that both statements were unreliable - the emperor had nine daughters, if he wanted to make peace, how could it be the turn of the daughter of the king of Zhongshan, and even if he wanted to be married, he should marry the three princes of Dayan, how could there be a reason to avoid the prince and abandon the son.
If it was because the daughter of the king of Zhongshan had done something ugly, it would be even more impossible to give it to Li Hangxing - although the Yan people are open and don't mind a woman eloping and remarrying, but Li Hangxing is also a member of the Dayan royal family, and he was inexplicably forced to stuff an unruly abandoned woman, which is not only an insult to him, but also an insult to the Dayan royal family and the Dayan Kingdom, the monarch of this dynasty is not warlike, how can he be stupid enough to make a feud with Dayan because of a woman!
The most incomprehensible is His Royal Highness the Prince, because the King of Zhongshan refused to marry his daughter, the Prince had a lot of trouble with him, and now the emperor suddenly gave his daughter to others, he didn't react, and he didn't go to the Zhongshan Palace......
Taishi's curiosity was aroused by this incident, and in order to find out the news, a few days ago, a special banquet was held to warmly entertain the envoys of Yan State.
The envoy had a very good relationship with him, and after a few glasses of wine, he revealed the news: "The Seventh Prince of our country did not send an envoy back to explain this family affair at all!" β
Zhao Taishi guessed instantly.
The envoy's friend said: "Don't look at our Seventh Prince's age, his scheming can be deep - in the future, don't offend him!" β
Looking at the other party's proud expression, Taishi Zhao couldn't help but think of his students, and felt ashamed!
God does not bless Daqi, and God bless Dayan.
The emperor has only one son, but he is like this, and among the seven sons of Emperor Dayan, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!
Anyway, he was already dead - after taking the opportunity of the prince's madness to withdraw from the East Palace, he originally planned to live for a long time, and live for a day.
Even if the emperor came to invite him, he didn't plan to take on this drudgery.
However, the prince sitting in front of him easily ignited the spark in his heart - although Taishi Zhao couldn't tell what kind of fire it was, but because of the temperature of this spark, his heart seemed to drift back to when he was young...... Who doesn't want to leave a name in history and interpret their own story in the imagination of future generations; Who wants to die silently and have a sealed epitaph dug up by a tomb thief?
Thinking so, he changed all the words he had prepared.
"The old minister is in low spirits, drowsy, he hasn't been out for a long time, and he hasn't heard of this happy event - I don't know which noble girl is a good match for His Royal Highness the Seventh?"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at him with heavy eyes, and was not in a hurry to answer.
Zhao Taishi simply pretended to sleep and let out bursts of snoring.
After a while, I heard the prince say: "Master Hui, it is the daughter of the King of Zhongshan who is married to His Royal Highness the Seventh!" β
The master didn't answer, and continued to pretend to sleep, he decided to take a risk and find out the details of this person.
The huge hall echoed only the snoring of the old lady.
Bo Lingjun knows that this is pretending to be - the original version is a pure pervert, and everyone around has to be careful in case the madman suddenly explodes - like a time bomb by his side, you just can't see its display, as long as the IQ is normal, it is estimated that even if he is sleepy, he will not dare to sleep!
What's more, Taishi Zhao has a superior IQ, just looking at the beautiful words he wrote to the prince in the later period, he must be a thoughtful person.
Unless the thirty boards in the original version made him stupid, he would never fall asleep in front of the prince.
Bo Lingjun picked up another sweet persimmon and ate it slowly.
He has been staying at home for twenty years, and he still has the patience to watch an old man pretend to sleep silently.
Jiang Diexi planned to step forward to wake up the Taishi, but he stopped him.
This is half an hour.
