Chapters 8 & 9: Teaching the Son (Revised 2-in-1)

Su Wan'er was too easily shy, and after being frightened, she hid in the quilt and refused to come out, Gao Ming tried several times but failed to coax her out of the bed, let alone let her continue dancing.

He had no choice but to put his hands into the quilt and knead it for a while, making Su Wan'er coquettish before he would give up.

At this time, it was not yet dark, and Gao Ming couldn't sleep so early, so he simply got up from the bed, and then went out while rubbing his waist.

The eunuch standing at the door saw Gao Ming come out, and hurriedly bowed to him.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the eldest grandson of the Emperor asks to see you."

Hearing his words, Gao Ming nodded suddenly.

"Okay, let him go to the study and find me."

"Yes!"

After leaving the bedroom, Gao Ming went to the study, although it was not dark at this time, but the study had been lit up, and a young eunuch stood beside the desk, as if waiting for Gao Ming's dispatch.

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming immediately frowned, and then waved his hand directly at him.

"You go out first, I'll call you if there's something."

"Yes!"

The eunuch said yes and went out, while Gao Ming sat down at his desk, and then picked up a book and read it, but he only looked at it twice and threw it away.

Because he can't read it.

The characters of the Tang Dynasty are regular script, and they are all traditional characters, most of these characters can still be understood by Gao Ming, but if they are connected, Gao Ming has no choice.

Coupled with the lack of punctuation, Gao Ming felt dizzy after only two glances.

"Alas, classical Chinese is too difficult to understand, it's better to write in the vernacular!"

Just when Gao Ming sighed, the door of the study was pushed open, and a boy who looked like he was ** years old walked in, and then bowed to Gao Mingshen.

"The child has seen his father!"

Looking at the boy below, Gao Ming immediately smiled, because he already knew the identity of this boy.

Li Xiang, born in the eighth year of Zhenguan, he should be Li Chengqian's eldest son, but unfortunately he is only a concubine, because if he is Li Chengqian's son-in-law, then the eunuch's title to him just now should not be "the emperor's eldest grandson", but "the emperor's grandson"!

Although there is only one word difference between the two, the treatment is more than one and a half points worse, because the imperial grandson is a candidate for the throne, and the eldest grandson of the emperor can only be a prince in the future.

Of course, whether the two mix well in the future depends on their father's status, to put it bluntly, it depends on whether Gao Ming mixes well or not.

So at this time, Li Xiang's eyes were a little trembling when he looked at Gao Ming.

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Gao Ming found that whether it was Li Ju before or Li Xiang now, when they looked at themselves, in addition to fear, there was distrust in their eyes, is this still the gaze of a son looking at his father?

Gao Ming suddenly felt that Li Chengqian was a very pathetic person, his father was alienated from him, his wife and children were afraid of him, and his subordinates betrayed him, what fun was there in a life like this?

Thinking of this, Gao Ming suddenly sighed, and then smiled at Li Xiang, who was standing below.

"Xiang'er, what's the matter with coming to find your father this time?"

Maybe this was the first time Li Xiang saw his father's pleasant appearance, after Gao Ming's words fell, he was stunned for a moment, and only after reacting did he hurriedly bow to Gao Ming.

"Back to ...... When he returned to his father, he heard that his father was unwell, so he came to greet his father. ”

His voice trembled a little, obviously he was still a little uneasy in his heart, and Gao Ming was also very helpless when he saw this scene.

"Freezing three feet is not a day's cold, it seems that if you want to reverse the original image, you still can't be in a hurry, you have to take your time."

Thinking of this, Gao Ming smiled at Li Xiang again.

"Well, you have a heart, and your father's body is fine, so you don't have to worry, by the way, has your schoolwork been wasted recently?"

The trick of asking for homework was learned from Li Shimin, so at this time he used it against Li Xiang, but fortunately, the effect seemed to be good.

"Back to my father, the child's schoolwork has not been wasted, and today the master of the Guozijian still praises me for my good study!"

At this time, Li Xiang seemed to feel Gao Ming's concern, and the smile on his face was a little more, looking at his happy appearance, Gao Ming's heart suddenly smiled secretly.

"No matter how much he pretends to be mature, he is always just a **-year-old child."

Thinking of this, Gao Ming nodded slightly.

"Well, that's good, then tell me what the master of the Guozijian said today?"

Hearing Gao Ming's question, Li Xiang immediately laughed.

"Father, today the master is talking about "Persuasion of Learning", and the gentleman said: Learning is not a last resort. Green is taken from blue, and green is blue...... Therefore, if you do not climb the mountain, you do not know the height of the sky; Not near the deep stream, I don't know the thickness of the land......"

Looking at the gushing Li Xiang, Gao Ming suddenly grew his mouth, his eyes widened, and his face was incredible.

"What is the length of this child's brain, thousands of words of classical Chinese are said to be memorized, without pause, is this the legendary backward recitation?"

In Gao Ming's surprised gaze, Li Xiang's exhortation was quickly memorized, and then he arched his hand towards Gao Ming.

"Father, this is what the child has learned more today, please correct my father."

As soon as he heard his words, Gao Ming was suddenly a little dumbfounded.

"Damn, I didn't understand, and I pointed out a fart!"

However, Gao Ming couldn't say this, so he could only cough dryly twice.

"Ahem...... Well, the book is good, but you can't be proud, as the so-called 'modesty makes people progress, pride makes people backward', learning is like sailing against the current, not advancing or retreating, you must remember that there is a road to the mountain of books, and the sea of learning is endless. ”

After listening to Gao Ming's words, Li Xiang suddenly showed a look of reverence, and then bowed to Gao Ming again

"What the father said is very true, and the child should take it to heart!"

Seeing Li Xiang looking at himself with admiration, Gao Ming's heart was relieved.

"I finally passed the test, it was really dangerous just now, Lao Tzu almost showed his stuffing, I didn't expect Li Chengqian's straw bag to have such a scholarly son, it seems that I have to use my strengths and avoid weaknesses in the future, otherwise I will not be able to maintain the majesty of this father for a long time."

Thinking of this, Gao Ming suddenly put on a serious face towards Li Xiang again.

"Xiang'er, you have to remember that 'the people are the water kings are the boats, and the water can carry the boats and overturn the boats', we, as members of the royal family, will have to deal with the people in the future, so we pay attention to making a fuss that is easy to understand, and only when the people understand can we avoid the officials below from distorting the decrees."

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Li Xiang immediately nodded.

"Father, what should a child do?"

Looking at his puzzled look, Gao Ming immediately laughed.

"In this way, when you go back, you will write an article with the title of "My Father", from appearance characteristics to behavior and behavior, it must be easy to understand, so that people can know at a glance that you are writing me and not others, and the number of words must not be less than 800 words, do you understand?"

"Uh......"

Li Xiang was slightly stunned, a trace of hesitation flashed on his face, but he still nodded.

"Father, the child understands, the child retires!"

Gao Ming nodded with a smile again, and after Li Xiang walked out of the study, he couldn't help but let out a long breath.

"Whew...... I've finally got this kid done, but I can't relax right now, I have to write a sample essay. ”

Thinking of this, Gao Ming was about to take a pen to write, but when he saw the inkstone of the brush in front of the desk, he was dumbfounded again.

He doesn't know how to use a brush, let alone write traditional characters, what should he do?
