Chapter 4, The Monk of the Ming Sky

"Big brother," Zheng Zhiyu touched his head embarrassedly and said to Zheng Zhilong, "The new gentleman is going to resign again." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

"What's going on?" Zheng Zhilong asked impatiently. A few months ago, this clan brother proposed to him that there should be a clan study in the family, and said that those really big families are like this, and this is how it will last forever.

Zheng Zhilong was a little surprised and delighted that Zheng Zhilu could have such a vision, because there was just a lack of someone in his family who had something else in his head besides muscles. So Zheng Zhilong asked Zheng Zhiju how he thought of this, Zheng Zhiju naturally wouldn't covet Zheng Sen's credit, he wasn't stupid enough to be like this. said that when he was at sea, Zheng Sen mentioned it when he told him about the ancients.

This idea was not thought up by his own brother, but by his own son, which naturally made Zheng Zhilong even happier. At the same time, he also admired Zheng Zhiyu for being so honest and kind, although Zheng Zhilong had not read "If there is a minister, who has no other skills, his heart is restless, and if he is tolerant." If a person has skills, if he has them, he is a saint, and his heart is good, which is like coming out of his mouth. can really tolerate it, so as to protect my children and grandchildren Li Min, it is still beneficial", but I can still appreciate Zheng Zhiyu's loyalty. So Zheng Zhilong handed over the important matter of running a family study to Zheng Zhiju.

Zheng Zhiyu did a good job, quickly picked a house, invited a good husband, and sent a group of children in the family in. However, it didn't take long for that gentleman to come to Zheng Zhiju himself, saying that he couldn't teach these children, so he asked Zheng Zhiju to invite another master. Zheng Zhiyu asked him what was going on, but the old gentleman refused to say, just shook his head, saying that he couldn't teach those sons of your mansion, and he must resign.

After sending this gentleman away, Zheng Zhiyu hurriedly found his son and asked, "Mr. Zhang, but you were angry because you were naughty?" ā€

I didn't want my son to reply: "It's not that I'm angry and run, if you want to say that I'm angry and run, then he is also angry with my eldest brother." ā€

The eldest brother in the mouth of this bear child naturally refers to Zheng Sen. Zheng Zhiyu didn't believe his son's words at all. In his opinion, Zheng Sen is a sensible child and polite to others, how can he be angry with Mr.? This must be the son and those bastard boys who are in trouble, so they want to find a tall man to help them up. Zheng Sen is a filial and friendly person, maybe he will really help these bastards carry the black pot. It's just this kind of black cauldron, even if Zheng Sen is willing to carry it, Zheng Zhihe can't let him carry it.

"What nonsense?" Zheng Zhiyu said angrily, "Ah Sen is a polite person, how can he make Mr. angry?" You must be messing around! If you don't tell the truth again, Lao Tzu will beat you flat! ā€

"It's really not us, we didn't do anything." The tears of his son's grievances are about to come out, "Mr. Zhang taught us to read, and the eldest brother also took us to read, and we were all very well-behaved." It's just that when Mr. Zhang taught us, the eldest brother sometimes asked Mr. Zhang questions, and Mr. Zhang always couldn't answer, sometimes he answered one or two sentences, and the eldest brother asked one or two more questions, and Mr. Zhang couldn't answer again. Then ......"

"And then?" Zheng Zhiyu hurriedly asked.

"Then Jung Eun said, 'I don't know anything, what else do you do.'" The son quickly replied, "The eldest brother immediately scolded Zheng En and asked him to make amends to his husband." ā€

Zheng En is Zheng Zhilong's third son, and he is usually a bit naughty and mischievous. Hearing his son say this, Zheng Zhiyu nodded, feeling that if this was the case, it would be quite reasonable. Zheng Zhiyu also understood why the gentleman died, and refused to say why he resigned. A teacher who was asked by a seven-year-old child was stammered, and no one was too embarrassed to say it.

"People say that this Mr. Zhang is good at learning, but if he is really good at learning, how can he be so many years, not to mention hyperplasia, even if he doesn't get hyperplasia? In addition, Ah Sen is extremely smart and studious, this Mr. Zhang is afraid that he really can't teach our Ah Sen. Zheng Zhiyu thought so, and stopped asking his son.

Originally, to enlighten children, to deal with a group of small dolls between the ages of five and seven, it was generally enough to find an old child. Because the teacher also taught the children something like "Hundred Family Names", "Three Character Classics", and "Thousand Character Texts", it was enough for the children to know a few more words, and there was no need to invite a showman. That is, Zheng Zhiyu relied on a lot of money to find an old epiphyte to be a teacher.

Mr. Zhang, as a third-class talent, came to be a mentor for a group of children, which should have been no problem, but who knew that he ran into Zheng Sen, a traverser who was eager to establish a supernatural image in the family. However, the "Thousand Words Essay" that Mr. talked about is about the cosmology or something. So Zheng Sen buckled the cosmology inside and broke it with the teacher, and then, the old master thought that there would be such a strange problem, so he accidentally became the first victim tragically.

With the first one, there will naturally be a second and a third. As a result, in just three months, a "Thousand Character Text" has not been completely taught, and the Zheng family's ethnology. I changed four teachers one after another. In this way, Zheng Sen's goal of becoming famous has been achieved, and now not only in Anping, but also in Quanzhou, everyone knows that the Zheng family has such a prodigy who can't be taught by talents.

"It's Asen who caused the trouble again, right?" Zheng Zhilong shook his head with a smile, "This little thing specializes in causing trouble, and it really doesn't make people worry." ā€

Having said that, Zheng Zhilong was actually quite happy in his heart. Zheng Zhilong has been an official since he was recruited, and he has become an official with the glory of his ancestors, but after becoming an official, many times he is not as casual as when he was a Haikou, he must constantly befriend those scholars, but those people don't take him seriously at all, and even almost treat each other as slaves. This naturally made Zheng Zhilong, who was used to being the king, very depressed. Now that he has a son, he can toss a scholar, although he is just a third-class talent, but it still gives Zheng Zhilong a sense of pleasure.

"Big brother, you can't blame Assen for this. If you want to blame, you can only blame the big brother. Zheng Zhiyu replied with a grin.

"Why do you blame me?" Zheng Zhilong asked.

"It's not that the eldest brother's son is too smart. Look at my family's Ade, even if you want to provoke such a thing, you can't provoke it. So, if you don't blame the big brother for this, who else can you blame? Zheng Zhihe smiled.

"If you want me to say, you really can't blame Ah Sen for this, you can only blame those poor sour people for being too incompetent!" Zheng Zhihu, the second child next to him, interjected.

"Dick." Zheng Zhilong frowned.

"Big brother, I'm telling the truth. For example, if you are compared to a novice, don't blame yourself, blame the novice. These poor people have been reading books for so many years, and as a result, Asen can't answer a question, who is not to blame himself? Zheng Zhihu didn't take the eldest brother's frown to heart, and continued to mumble, "Also, I said Ah Yu, the eldest brother will leave the matter of clan studies to you, and you can also serve snacks, don't always invite some waste back." ā€

"Second brother, it's really not that I don't care." Zheng Zhiyu hurriedly defended, "Those students who are sick are busy preparing for the examination, who will come to be a teacher for the child......

"Second brother, Ah Yu has been very attentive these days, don't talk nonsense." Zheng Zhilong said, and then he turned to Zheng Zhilu and asked, "But it's not okay to keep doing this." Do you have any ideas? ā€

"Big brother, I think, is it okay to do this: in fact, those gentlemen, it is still enough to teach Adu and Arne. As for Asen, big brother, he really needs a smart teacher. I remember that the eldest brother was the great benefactor of Kaiyuan Temple. The great monk of Mingkong in Kaiyuan Temple seems to have dealings with many celebrities, if the eldest brother is free, it is better to take Ah Sen to the monk Mingkong to take a walk, and ask the monk Mingkong to find a good teacher for Ah Sen. Zheng Zhiyu thought for a while and replied.

This Mingkong monk is not the abbot monk of Kaiyuan Temple in Quanzhou, but if you want to be famous, he is even more famous than the abbot monk. This monk Mingkong has profound Buddhism, no obstacle to argumentation, plus he can chant poetry, can paint, and his life is good-looking, and he is very intelligent. So they were willing to associate with him, from fools and fools to scholars and doctors. After Zheng Zhilong made a fortune, he often went to Kaiyuan Temple to give alms, and he was familiar with this Mingkong monk.

Zheng Zhilong knows that this Mingkong monk has close contacts with many celebrities, such as now serving as the governor of Yansui, and later became the Ming Governor and then became my Qing Dynasty's Hongwen Academy scholar, Taibao, Prince Taishi, Five Provinces Strategy, Hong Chengchou's younger brother Hong Chengchou, who can be called the elder of the two dynasties, often writes poems and sings with this Mingkong monk, and there are many plaques in Kaiyuan Temple, which is written by this Mingkong monk Tuo Hong Chengjiao.

In addition, Qian Qianyi, the leader of Donglin, who was rectified by Wen Tiren two years ago with a fraud case in the science field, has always been unwilling to stay away from the imperial court, and has been frequently active in the southeast. He and his disciple, Qu Shiyun, who was dismissed together two years ago, have been to Quanzhou more than once, and they also have dealings with the Mingkong monk of Kaiyuan Temple.

"Looking for Monk Mingkong? That's a good idea. Zheng Zhilong nodded and said, "Zhiyu, you have made great progress recently, you think well!" It's just that you said that our family Asen can get into the eyes of those people? ā€

"Big brother, don't worry, although I am not well-informed, but there are many places running all over the world, and there are thousands of children I have seen, and there is no one who can compare with our family. Besides, what kind of children those people like, although the younger brother is not clear, but the monk Mingkong must know. The eldest brother can't give more money to the monk, he must be willing to help seriously, don't look at the monk who looks like a monk, but there are still bald donkeys who don't love money in this world. Zheng Zhiyu replied.

"You, this mouth is going to hell in the future!" Zheng Zhilong scolded with a smile, then turned around and called a servant and instructed him, "I'm going to visit Master Kong Ming in Kaiyuan Temple recently, and you ask Ah Cai to help me prepare a gift." ā€
