Chapter 4: First contact with Zhu Houzhao

Although the wife was still a little hesitant, she felt right after listening to the queen's words, and the queen would not let her own nephew be wronged. Even if she was really wronged, she would resign from this errand when the time came, but after thinking about it, Mrs. did not object again.

Seeing that his wife did not object, Empress Zhang was also relieved, Empress Zhang really wanted her mother's family to get closer to the prince. It's a pity that the prince is not interested in the two uncles, and the younger generation has no finished products, and Zhang Zhijie's performance today undoubtedly moved Queen Zhang.

The wife accompanied the queen and the old lady to talk for a while, and then retired from the palace. On the way, Mrs. Zhang Zhijie asked, "Why does Brother Bao suddenly want to enter the palace as an escort?" Zhang Zhijie said with a smile: "It's a good thing that many people can't envy the prince to accompany the prince." The wife said: "A good thing is a good thing, but the royal rules are big, and I am afraid that you will be wronged." Zhang Zhijie smiled: "It's okay, let's do it first." The wife smiled and said, "I'm like an adult when I'm sick." ”

After Zhang Zhijie left, the prince went to greet the queen, and Queen Zhang told the prince about Zhang Zhijie. Empress Zhang said to the prince: "You are bored with reading all day long, and now the queen mother has found you a companion to read with you." The prince suddenly became energetic, it is better to have a playmate than to play alone, and hurriedly asked, "Queen Mother, who is it?" Empress Zhang smiled: "Zhang Zhijie, he is your cousin, you can be closer." When the prince heard this, he pouted and said, "He? It's like a big girl. ”

Empress Zhang said with a smile: "Don't be three days, you should be impressed." After Zhijie disease recovered, the person grew a lot. He went to the school yesterday and saw that the school was noisy and noisy, so he cleaned up the school severely, and when he entered the palace today, I also felt that Zhijie had changed a lot. ”

In the evening, when the emperor came to Kunning Palace, Empress Zhang was idle and talked to the emperor about today's events. The emperor sat on a chair, drinking tea, laughing and listening. Hearing that the queen Zhang Zhijie was going to enter the palace to accompany the prince, the emperor smiled and said: "This kid is enlightened, it's hard for Mrs. Shouninghou to not restrain him, and I will make a will in a while." Empress Zhang smiled brightly: "The concubine thanked the emperor." The emperor stretched out his hand to hold Queen Zhang's hand and said, "You and I are husband and wife, and I still need to thank you." ”

When Zhang Zhijie had dinner, a father-in-law hurriedly came to preach his will, which was nothing more than a young and intelligent man with good morals, and he was specially selected to accompany the prince. Zhang Zhijie played the waist card to enter the palace, but he didn't know where to fly.

The next day, Zhang Zhijie had breakfast, and the queen had thoughtfully sent a little eunuch to come, knowing that Zhang Zhijie didn't know the way to go for the first time. Zhang Zhijie took the little eunuch to the palace gate, checked the waist card, and went all the way to the East Palace.

As soon as I arrived at the East Palace, I saw a smiling eunuch standing there waiting, and the little eunuch saw it and said softly: "Father-in-law Liu, this is the prince's companion, Zhang Zhijie, the little marquis of the Shouning Hou family." The little eunuch said to Zhang Zhijie again: "This is the prince Liu's right-hand man in front of him." As soon as Zhang Zhijie heard it, he knew that the kind and kind eyes in front of him were Liu Jin, but Liu Jin at this time was not as arrogant as he was later.

In the future, he will be mixed in front of the prince, so he naturally has to have a good relationship with the people around Zhu Houzhao, Zhang Zhijie smiled and arched his hand: "It turned out to be Gonggong Liu, who is new to the city, take care of me." At this time, Liu Jin was just an inconspicuous little eunuch in the palace, so he naturally didn't dare to offend the queen's favorite nephew, and saluted with a smile: "What kind of father-in-law is not a father-in-law, our Liu Jin has seen the little marquis." ”

When the little eunuch saw that the matter was done, he saluted and said, "The matter is done, and the little one should go back to Kunning Palace to resume his life." Zhang Zhijie and Liu Jin sent the little eunuch away, Liu Jin smiled at Zhang Zhijie: "The little marquis doesn't need to be restrained, there are few rules in the East Palace, and now Master Yang is about to come to give a lecture to His Royal Highness, and His Royal Highness is now waiting in the side hall." ”

Zhang Zhijie knew that Bachelor Yang was Yang Tinghe, a scholar of Zuochunfang University, who was a great man in the future, and was now mainly responsible for the prince's studies. Zhang Zhijie was thinking about it when he arrived at the side hall, and when he entered, it was simple that a fair-skinned and handsome young man was sitting on a chair bored.

Liu Jin smiled and said, "Your Highness, Master Zhang Xiaohou is here." Zhang Zhijie hurriedly saluted and said, "I've seen His Royal Highness the Prince." Zhu Houzhao jumped up from the chair and circled around Zhang Zhijie. Although Zhang Zhijie felt a little inexplicable, he still stood there calmly and looked at Zhu Houzhao.

Liu Jin said with a smile: "Your Highness, what's the matter, the slaves and maids who turned are almost dizzy." Zhu Houzhao smiled: "Tut, it's really changed, it's not the same as before." Zhang Zhijie smiled: "What was it like before?" Zhu Houzhao pouted: "I used to be like a little girl, not fun." Zhang Zhijie said with a smile: "Experiencing a serious illness is a bit of a feeling of enlightenment." Zhu Houzhao was suddenly happy: "Don't say it, I sometimes want to become a monk." ”

Zhang Zhijie couldn't help wiping his sweat, the ghost wanted to become a monk, but he also knew that Zhu Houzhao was very interested in Buddhism. Liu Jin heard this and hurriedly persuaded: "My prince, you can't talk nonsense about this, if you want the emperor to know, you can't pick our skin." Zhu Houzhao waved his hand indiscriminately when he heard this: "Okay, okay, it's boring." After speaking, he rolled his eyes and looked at Zhang Zhijie gossipily and said, "I heard that you beat Zhang Gui." ”

Zhang Zhijie said with a smile: "It's not about beating him, I'm educating him, this is doing a good deed, it's completely different from bullying him." Zhu Houzhao is the only son of the emperor, he was alone in the palace when he was a child, he was very bored, and said curiously: "Tell me, talk about it." ”

Zhang Zhijie knew that this was the time to get closer to each other, so he talked about this process vividly. When he heard Zhang Zhijie smoking the little fat man with a book, Zhu Houzhao's face turned red with excitement, the palace is all in order, where has he experienced this. After Zhang Zhijie smoked Zhang Gui and everyone in the school was honest, Zhu Houzhao listened to it very happily and shouted: "Good fight."

After listening to this, Zhu Houzhao pulled Zhang Zhijie and said: "Zhijie, you must call me next time you go to the school to draw people, this is really fun." While the two were talking, a chubby eunuch ran in from outside, and as soon as he came in, he shouted, "Your Highness, here, here." Zhu Houzhao shouted when he heard this: "Oh no, Master Yang is here, hurry up, prepare the book." ”

Zhu Houzhao sat down in front of a case, pointed to the case next to him and said, "Zhijie, yours." After speaking, he said to Liu Jin: "Prepare a book for Zhijie too." Zhang Zhijie took the book handed over by Liu Jin and looked at it, good guy, "Mencius". Zhang Zhijie was stunned with "Mencius", where did he understand this.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and a handsome middle-aged man walked in, and Liu Jingu and others all shouted "Bachelor Yang" in unison. After Yang Tinghe came in, he saluted Zhu Houzhao and said, "Your Highness, can you start?" Zhu Houzhao nodded. Yang Tinghe walked to the lesson plan and began to lecture, and at this time Yang Tinghe noticed Zhang Zhijie and remembered that the emperor had mentioned to him that this was the son of the Hou family of Shouning who came to accompany the prince. Yang Tinghe was extremely dissatisfied in his heart, because the two brothers of Shouning Hou had a bad reputation. Civil officials have always looked down on their relatives, so he decided that Zhang Zhijie was a gentleman. Originally, the prince was stubborn and difficult to teach, and if there was another gentleman, the prince would be damaged, wouldn't it be even more difficult to teach!

Therefore, Yang Tinghe had the idea of testing Zhang Zhijie, trying his quality, and giving him a disadvantage. Yang Tinghe coughed and began to talk about Mencius. Yang Ting and He Xu Ren are also famous at a young age, a prodigy who was raised at the age of twelve, with profound knowledge, and he speaks and speaks well. Zhang Zhijie's eyes suddenly straightened, he was stunned, he was directly stunned, Zhang Zhijie could still understand a little bit of the class taught by Mr. Yang in the school, and Zhang Zhijie could only listen to the book that day.

Zhang Zhijie squinted at Zhu Houzhao and found that he was staring blankly at the textbook, and his saliva was about to run down. Zhang Zhijie was shocked, this little photo is also a talent, is there Yan Ruyu in the book? Could it be that he has not "Mencius" but a playboy in his hand?

Yang Tinghe saw that Zhang Zhijie was actually talking to each other, and paused: "Then the king's doctor will ask me why I benefit my family, and if the doctor wants to benefit his family, then the king's people will also ask me why I benefit my body." If the people from the top to the bottom of the Shishu take their benefits, the country will be in danger and perish. Zhang Zhijie, what do you mean by this passage? ”
