Chapter 248: Apprenticeship

Night, Imperial City, Rouyi Palace. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Since Emperor Chengzu moved the capital, the imperial city of Nanjing has basically been in a state of semi-abandonment, and at first there were royal families and eunuchs guarding the imperial city.

However, with the official establishment of the capital of the capital and the abolition of the eunuch system by Emperor Sejong, the imperial city of Nanjing has completely become a place for some eunuchs to retire.

There are even many side halls and dormitories that have collapsed due to disrepair, and there is no one to manage them.

However, tonight's imperial city was unexpectedly lively, because His Royal Highness Shouwang, the only emperor who was qualified to live in it, held a banquet here for the first time.

"This king has been in Yingtianfu for some days, and he has not had the opportunity to thank you for your courtesy and care, so I would like to take this opportunity to thank you tonight!"

Although the matter was in a hurry, Zhu Changluo still had to admire Yang Rong for not being able to cover it, and in a short period of time, he really made this banquet decent.

Seeing that everyone was almost there, Zhu Changluo picked up his wine glass and said.

"Your Highness is polite, this is our duty!"

Most of the people invited by Zhu Changluo today are civil ministers, and basically the top civil official Qingliu in Jinling City has been invited by him.

There are also a few families who are good friends with him, such as Gongshun Hou, Xuanchengbo, Hui'anbo and so on.

Of course, Chen Liangbi, Marquis of Taining, is also indispensable, but he came as the identity of the Nanjing garrison, so he sat under Zhu Changluo, and saw Zhu Changluo raise a glass, and Chen Liangbi was the first to raise a glass to respond.

The people present were all romantic and elegant, and the scene was naturally harmonious, after three rounds of drinking, Zhu Changluo smiled slightly and said.

"Don't hide it from you, today's banquet is really a banquet for apprentices, this king wants to invite the prince of the country to sacrifice wine Li Tingji, and the son of the prince of the priest Ye Xiang Gao two gentlemen for the king's business, I hope you will witness together!"

After that, Zhu Changluo walked down from Dan Majesty, and behind the screen walked out a graceful and luxurious woman.

"Concubine Gong is here!"

With a soft shout from the little attendant, everyone present got up and bowed down.

"I've seen Concubine Gong!"

Wang took Zhu Changluo's hand, and slowly came to the next two Li Tingji and Ye Xianggao, and bowed.

"The inferior son is not talented, I hope the two gentlemen will not give up and teach them a career!"

Wang An on the side was already prepared, and with a wave of his hand, there were several attendants with a plate to serve, with celery, lotus seeds, red beans, red dates, longan, dried lean meat strips and other things on the plate, which was a gift of bondage.

"Good! The old man will come to be a witness today, and after going to His Royal Highness, he can devote himself to learning and become my great humerus! Don't continue to behave recklessly! ”

Everyone present was stunned at first, but then reacted, Zhou Shixuan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, was the most happy, he knew the temperament of Li Tingji and Ye Xianggao, just looking at the current Guozi supervisor's style, he knew that these two people were strict with students.

If there are two of them to teach Zhu Changluo, they will definitely be able to put this highness on the right path......

In the final analysis, Zhou Shangshu is still angry about Zhu Changluo's nonsense of letting Nan Zhili change all sweet potatoes......

"Dare to disobey? I will do my best to live up to the trust of my mother! ”

Although Li Tingji and Ye Xianggao were a little hasty about tonight's apprenticeship, they finally knew in advance, so they wouldn't make any jokes.

"In that case, please take this thing!"

When the Wang family bowed again, a maid sent two plates of copper coins, which was also a gift of restraint.

"Thank you, Niang!"

Li Tingji and Ye Xianggao returned the salute, and at the same time took out a scroll of Analects from the plate behind them and handed it to Zhu Changluo.

"Today, I am entrusted to teach Yuer, since I should do my best, the so-called way of the university, in Mingmingde, in the people, in the end of the best, after knowing and then there is certainty, after the determination can be quiet, after the quiet can be peaceful, after peace can be considered, after thinking can be obtained...... Although you are a royal family and nobleman, you also understand the words of the sage, the way of governing the country, filial piety and respect for the elderly, friendship and brotherhood, and become a gentleman and an ancient style! Remember! ”

"Thank you, teacher!"

Zhu Changluo respectfully accepted the Analects handed over by Li Tingji and replied.

"Great goodness!"

Zhou Shixuan stroked his palms and said with a smile.

At this point, the apprenticeship ceremony is considered a ceremony, and from then on, even if Zhu Changluo has two teachers, in the Confucian concept, only enlightenment and education, literacy and etiquette can be truly adults.

In other words, from today onwards, Zhu Changluo, the eldest son of the emperor, has officially begun to take another big step towards the position of the crown prince.

After sending off the Wang family, everyone sat down, and the atmosphere in the venue became more and more enthusiastic, and Li Tingji and Ye Xianggao were surrounded by people, you must know that this is the prince's teacher, maybe it will be the prince's division in the future, or even the emperor's teacher!

With today's ceremony, it can be said that the future of the two in front of them is simply a broad road, those old adults who are already old naturally have no thoughts, but there are also some young officials present, who are not hugging their thighs at the moment, and have a good relationship, and when to wait!

However, what everyone didn't notice was that in the eyes of Zhu Changluo, who was sitting on the top, a hint of playfulness suddenly flashed.

"Your Highness, there is something important to do!"

There was harmony inside the hall, but there was a slaughter outside the hall.

The autumn weather is the most dry, but behind the small courtyard of Li Tingji's house, several sneaky figures quietly appeared, among which the two leading people were wearing silk cloth round-necked robes, and one of them was Cheng Liang during the day.

"Hurry, hurry! Hurry up and bring the firewood......"

The leading man looked around as he urged the housekeeper beside him to pile the bales of hay behind the doorway.

"Side...... Brother Bian, will we make a big fuss if we do this! What if someone dies? ”

Cheng Liang looked at the busy family members, but a trace of horror flashed in his eyes, and he stammered and asked.

"What nonsense are you talking about, this is cowardice? You don't want to think about how much this old bastard has subjected you and me to the family at home? Now I won't even give you the karma certificate, since he is unkind, why should I be polite to him! Burning his dilapidated house first today to vent his brother's anger, isn't he boasting of being honest? Ben Gongzi let him see what happened to him incorruptible! ”

"......"

Cheng Liang shrank his head, obviously a little scared, and wanted to continue to speak, but was interrupted all of a sudden.

"Don't worry, I've inquired, this old man Li has just been transferred to Jinling City for less than two years, and his family hasn't taken it over yet, His Royal Highness King Shou has a banquet today, he took people to the banquet, and only two old servants were left at home, and no one could be killed! Besides, even if someone dies, who would dare to find out about you and me? Where's the fire fold, get it quickly! ”

The brother said in the end, he was already very impatient, snatched the fire fold from Cheng Liang's hand, lit it, and threw it on the hay.

In the dry autumn, firewood and hay suddenly rose with the wind and spread in all directions......

The young man surnamed Bian sneered, but he pulled Cheng Liang and turned away.

It's just that what these people didn't notice was that in the alley behind them, a pair of cold eyes stared at them, seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, and their faces also became cold......
