At this time, Wen Yao suddenly asked: "Father, there is another matter that the son does not know, why do you send a few uncles or brothers to study in the Five Cities Academy, instead of continuing to stay in the Royal Academy?" ”

Hearing Wen Yao's words, everyone turned their heads and looked at him with reproachful eyes. 'Sister-in-law/mother-in-law has managed to make the atmosphere more relaxed, why do you ask such a serious question?' ’

But Wen Yao was very surprised when he saw their gaze. Wen Yao is different from them, he is not the son of Xi Yao's sisters, he rarely eats with Xi Yao in Kunning Palace on weekdays, everyone is a little more relaxed after hearing Xi Yao's words, but he doesn't feel relaxed at all, but is even more nervous, in order to relieve the tension, he asked this question.

Yun Xi didn't think of Wen Yao's psychology, so he felt a little reproachful for him at this time. But since Wen Yao asked, he would naturally answer. "Wen Yao, the children of the clan that my father wants to send to study in the Five Cities Academy are all people who will not be crowned princes."

"Since they will not be crowned princes, they will not become the kings of a country, and in the future, they will either eat and wait for death or assist their fathers or the kings of various vassal states."

"That is to say, they will be of the same use to the Ming or the vassal kingdom in the future as the people that my father wants to train in the Wucheng Academy, and what I will teach them will be different from what I will teach you. So my father wanted to send them to study in the Five Cities School. ”

"This," Wen Yao also thought about the reason, but never thought that it was the reason. Not only him, but everyone present, including Xi Yao, was very surprised.

"Why has the crown prince been taught alone since ancient times, and not like other princes? It is because the crown prince, as the prince, the future monarch, has to learn different things from ordinary princes. There are many statecraft that can only be taught to the crown prince. ”

"There are differences between this dynasty and previous dynasties. Although my father did not rule over such a large land and such a large population as the Ming Dynasty, I also had to learn the art of governing the country, so my father wanted to leave all the princes or sons behind and go to school with you. ”

"Yao'er, the reason why Fujun has not rebuilt Zhan Shifu is because of this. Since both the crown prince and the vassal king have to learn the art of governing the country, it is good to let him learn it with the princes, why set up a separate Zhan Mansion for him? However, the husband can ask the gentlemen of the Royal Academy to appoint the officials of the Zhan Mansion. ”

However, although he said so, there was another reason why Yun Xi did not set up the Zhan Mansion. Set up the Zhan Mansion to appoint officials, and the crown prince will have his own team. If you are like Yun Xi who is the grandson and wants to be the emperor in a few years, it is of course a good thing to have your own team; But for Wenyuan, it is not necessarily a good thing to have his own team.

Yun Xi is only in his twenties this year, and even according to the average life expectancy of an emperor who died normally in the Ming Dynasty, he can live past fifty years old, which means that Wenyuan will be the prince for more than 30 years. As time passed, his team would slowly have conflicts with the ministers appointed by Yun Xi, which might lead to conflicts between the crown prince and the emperor. Several incidents in history of the abolition of the crown prince, such as the Prince Affair and the Yinren Incident, and the famous Xuanwumen Incident, have inevitably intensified the contradictions between the cronies and ministers of both sides in the process of intensifying the contradictions between fathers and sons or brothers.

In order to avoid this kind of thing, Yun Xi simply did not set up a team of ministers for Wenyuan.

After saying that sentence to Xi Yao, he turned his head again and said to Yun Xu, Wen Yuan, Wen Yao, Wen Qi and others: "You will all become the king of a country in the future, and you need to know how to govern the country. But there are some things that are difficult for ministers to teach you, so starting this year, my brother will teach you these things himself. ”

"Of course, you can also learn on your own. Sima Guang's "Zizhi Tongjian" is a very suitable book for self-study. If you can understand the "Zizhi Tongjian" from beginning to end, you don't need your brother to teach it. ”

"Got it, Imperial Brother/Father." They all agreed.

Yun Xi said a few more words and asked them if they had any other questions. Everyone shook their heads and said they had no other problems. Yun Xi then said: "Since this is the case, then use the rice well." Brother Shicai has told you many things, and you should think more about it when you go back. Especially you Yunxi, you are fifteen years old this year, and I don't know if one day my brother thinks that a certain place needs to be sealed as a vassal country, and he will seal you over. Be sure to study carefully before you officially seal the domain. ”

"It's the royal brother, and the younger brother must study carefully." Yun Xuan showed a happy look on his face and agreed.

"Hmm." Yun Xi nodded, stopped talking, and began to eat seriously. Others also picked up their rice bowls and ate them again.

They had already eaten five or six minutes full, and after eating for a while, they were all full. What Yun Xi said just now had a great impact on them, and no one was in much of a mood to talk anymore, so Yun Xi, Yun Yun, and Yun Zhi left one after another, and Yun Xi didn't stay.

"Yun Xu, it's getting late today, so you can rest in the palace for the night. It just so happens that your mother also misses you, so go to your mother's bedroom to rest. The palace where you used to live is still in its original state, and it has not been touched in the slightest. ”

"Brother Xie Huang." Yun Xu smiled.

Yun Xi said a few more words to him and ordered the eunuch to send him to his mother's bedroom.

"Father, son also resigned to father." When Yunxi's sister and brother were gone, Wen Yao also stepped forward to say goodbye.

"You can go back too. Father has a few more men to escort you back. Yun Xi said a word, then put his hands on his shoulders, stared into his eyes and said: "Wen Yao, you are the eldest son of your father, and in the future, your father will definitely seal a land of heaven for you." You must study hard and live up to your father's expectations. ”

"Although your mother is dedicated to being good to you, she is limited to knowledge after all, and some of her teachings to you may not really be good for you, you must learn to discriminate."

"Although you were not born to the same mother as Wenyuan and Wenqi, in your father's mind, you are no different from Wenqi. You must not belittle yourself about your father. Be sure to get close to your two younger brothers as well. ”

"As your mother, the queen has Wenyuan, and she won't want to harm you. My father asked you to have dinner together in Kunning Palace today, just because I hope you can get close to your two younger brothers and bring you and your mother closer. ”

Yun Xi said a lot, and finally said to him: "In short, Wen Yao, you remember that everything your father tells you is for your good, and you must obey your father's words." ”

"Yes, father."
