"Who is visiting in the middle of the night?"

Zhao Zheng was half puzzled and half curious at the moment.

After all, it's so late, how can there be a guest so ignorant and take the liberty to disturb himself, the king of a country?

Besides, even if there is such a reckless guest, he Hao Zhen is from a family after all, doesn't he even understand this most basic etiquette?

Why didn't they stop it at all, but took the initiative to report it?

This......

Could it be this distinguished guest...... Is it really extremely expensive?

Thinking of this, Zhao Zheng hurriedly looked out the window, but only heard Hao Zhen lower his voice and said excitedly.

"Back to Your Highness! The visitor is none other than my much-admired Confucian-Nanyang Jingshen Zuo Xuan! ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Zheng and Zhao Wan in the palace were all stunned, and their eyes were blank.

"W-What? What is the Nanyang Sutra God, the Nanyang Nerve? ”

Zhao Zheng muttered quietly, but it made Wan'er laugh out loud.

Although he has never heard of this Nanyang scripture god who is said to be highly admired, Zhao Zheng heard the word Confucianism, of course, he also knew that he should not lose his courtesy.

So he hurriedly asked Wan'er to help him dress, and at the same time instructed Hao Zhen, who was kneeling on the ground outside the hall.

"That being the case...... Let's ask the old gentleman to go to the side hall for a while. ”

"Whoa!"

Hao Zhen immediately said yes when he heard this, then bowed down and retreated, and went to arrange it immediately.

"Nanyang Sutra God...... Wan'er, have you heard of the name of this great Confucian? ”

Zhao Zheng was waiting for Wan'er to put on the royal clothes, and subconsciously said in doubt.

"This ...... The slave maid came from a humble background, and she really had never come into contact with such masters and celebrities......"

Zhao Wan was serving His Royal Highness King Qin to get dressed, and when she suddenly heard this, she couldn't help lowering her head and answering with some embarrassment.

"It's okay, it's okay...... Not even this king has ever heard of it, much less of you? ”

Zhao Zhengwen came back to his senses when he heard this, and waved his hand again and again and said with a smile.

He was also confused, he had never heard of such a great Confucian from an imperial family, let alone Wan'er, who was born in a blacksmith family?

Of course, this is also the reason why he has no intention of studying at all, and his mind is not focused on this......

Otherwise, if he could be so respected by Hao Zhen and dare to respect the great Confucianism in the name of the gods, Zhao Zheng would not have never heard of it.

"I don't know that this great Confucian of the time visited late at night...... But why? ”

Zhao Zheng stood in place, but he kept speculating in his heart why this unmasked Confucian would pay a special visit to him, a young feudal king who was only twelve years old, and even ......

Still in the middle of the night?

……

"Zicheng...... Since the great Confucian is visiting, you don't have to go with you. ”

As soon as Zhao Zheng came out of the palace gate, Zhao Long, as a personal guard, had already heard the movement and stood outside the palace in advance to wait.

But Zhao Zheng was in his own palace, and he was going to meet the great Confucian Zuo Xuan later, so he immediately waved his hand, signaling that Zhao Long would not need to be personally guarded tonight.

"This ......"

Zhao Long hesitated for a moment, but finally bowed and saluted.

"Whoa!"

It's just that when he looked at the back of His Royal Highness King Qin wearing a big hat and gradually moving away, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

'Your Highness, he has been trying his best to welcome guests until late at night, and he is really a model for the king......

……

"Huh?"

Because the palace of King Qin was too small, when he went to the side hall for guests, Zhao Zheng found at a glance that Yun Mei's bedroom was still brightly lit.

"It's dark at night...... Why is there still a light in Yun'er's house? ”

Zhao Zheng felt strange in his heart, and immediately couldn't help but step closer, looking out of the window lightly.

It didn't matter if I looked at it, but through the half-open window sash, I saw Yun Mei sitting in front of the desk, under the faint and bright candlelight.

Holding a simple book in his hand, he studied it carefully, read it softly in his mouth, and from time to time took out a pen to write something on the blank bamboo slip on the side.

This scene was in the eyes of Zhao Zheng at this time, which made him stunned immediately, but after being stunned in place for a long time, he couldn't help but say out loud.

"Yun'er...... You. ”

"Huh?"

Zhao Yun suddenly heard the sound, and subconsciously followed the prestige, but found that the imperial brother was wearing a big hat, standing out of the window in a daze, looking at himself in a daze.

"Brother Huang, it's so late...... Why haven't you rested yet? ”

Zhao Yun put down the book and hurriedly got up, and the first sentence she blurted out was that she was concerned about why the imperial brother had not rested.

“…… Why haven't you rested yet? ”

Zhao Zheng was stunned at first, and then asked rhetorically in exactly the same language, but in a stronger tone.

It's so late, why is Yun'er still studying here?

Even when I was enrolled in a university......

I won't stay up so late!

"Well, I—I'm not...... Practice, practice the art of war. ”

Zhao Yun suddenly heard the rhetorical question, and was caught on the spot by the imperial brother, but he could only say truthfully.

After saying that, I couldn't help but stick out my tongue mischievously.

"Practicing the art of war? One of your daughters doesn't sleep at night...... Practicing the art of war here?? ”

Zhao Zheng was inexplicable when he heard this, this is not in the academy, and no one forcibly restrains her, why is Yun Mei working harder and harder?

And what kind of book is not good to read, you have to read this kind of battlefield to be useful in the art of war?!

You said that you are a girl's family, you don't read some poetry and songs, you don't read some idle books and chatter, and you always fantasize about what you do when you go into battle to kill the enemy!

It's really not good, even if it's just to look at some golden scales and something in the pool!

Do you have to read this book of war??

"What did the royal brother say! Although Yun'er is a daughter, why can't she read the book of war and can't practice the art of war?! ”

Who knew that when Zhao Yun heard this, she was a little unhappy, and even raised her head and hummed in displeasure!

"Besides...... It's not like Brother Huang, you said earlier that I should learn more about the art of war! ”

As soon as Zhao Yun said this, Zhao Zheng was stunned in place for an instant, but he didn't remember at all, had he said such things before?

"Uh, this ......"

Zhao Zheng's brain crashed on the spot, and it wasn't until he thought for a while that he reluctantly recalled that he seemed to have said something similar when he was annoyed by Yun Mei......

But it's just a casual remark, and it doesn't really mean to let her learn the art of war, it's just that she doesn't stick to herself!

How did she say her casual words, Yun Mei took it to heart, and even did not hesitate to read it at night, forgetting to sleep and eat...... Day and night he practiced the art of war?

This made Zhao Zheng stunned on the spot for a while, but he really didn't know what to say.

"Okay, okay~, let's not talk about that......"

Seeing this situation, Zhao Yun quickly changed the topic of the opportunity, and instead asked why the imperial brother didn't sleep.

"By the way, Brother Huang, why are you so late...... But still out and about? ”

Zhao Yun couldn't help but look behind the imperial brother as she spoke, but found that there was no one, not to mention the personal maid Zhao Wan, and Zhao Long, the personal guard who didn't leave for a moment, didn't even follow him!

"Oh...... It's because a distinguished guest suddenly came to visit in the middle of the night, and he is waiting in the side hall at the moment. ”

Zhao Zheng suddenly came back to his senses and couldn't help but answer casually, but then he frowned again and said on the spot.

"You! Get back to bed and rest! If you find out that you haven't slept yet, be careful that I spank you, brother! ”

After that, he couldn't help but snort a few times, and pretended to be fierce and threatened.

"Okay, okay, Yun'er is going to sleep......"

Zhao Yun suddenly grinned, looking at the imperial brother's 'fierce' expression, but he only felt extremely cute, and there was no fear in his heart.

But since the imperial brother has already spoken, Zhao Yun will not go against the imperial brother, but obediently responds and immediately prepares to rest.

"Eh, by the way, Brother Huang...... Who is it that is asking to see you so late? ”

However, before turning around and going back to the house, Zhao Yun asked casually curiously.

"Listening to Hao Zhen, which great Confucian came to visit, it seems to be Nanyang...... Nanyang is coming? ”

Zhao Zheng replied indifferently, and as he spoke, he was about to turn around and leave, going to the side hall to meet this distinguished guest who came at night.

"What? Nanyang Jingshen Zuo Xuan?! ”

Who knew that Zhao Yun heard this, but he shouted loudly!

"Oh? Yun'er ...... Have you ever heard of the name of this great Confucian? ”

The figure that was about to leave suddenly froze, and Zhao Zheng couldn't help but turn around and look at Yun Mei with curiosity on his face.

"Of course, Brother Huang! This Nanyang Sutra God! But we are the first great Confucian in the name of the great cadre!! ”

Zhao Yun suddenly looked at the imperial brother with an incredible expression, as if he was surprised that the imperial brother didn't know about this person!

That look, as if he had never heard the name of Nanyang Sutra God Zuo Xuan, seemed to be a very humiliating thing!

"What? The first great Confucian?! ”

Zhao Zheng was speechless immediately, but he never thought that the origin of this Nanyang Jing God would be so big!

No wonder, no wonder Hao Zhen, that guy, would be pleasantly surprised to see this kind of thing!

"What's more, Brother Huang! When this Nanyang Jingshen traveled to the world in his early years, he was already famous and famous all over the world! Even if you look at the whole of Kyushu, you can be regarded as a respected and ranked Confucianism master!! ”

When Zhao Yun said this, there were already little stars in his eyes, as if he admired this great Confucian master who only heard his name but did not know anyone.

"Huh? I have never been a good writer...... Is there still such a Confucianism and Taoism master? ”

Zhao Zheng couldn't help but sigh slightly when he heard this, he didn't expect that there would be such a famous Confucian master in the great cadre who admired martial arts!

"Uh...... In fact, although Mr. Zuo is a native of Nanyang County, he is a native of Nanyang County, but the place where he has learned is in Daxing rather than Daqian, and when he became famous, he was also in Lin'an, the capital of Daxing, a holy place of Confucianism and Taoism! ”

Zhao Yun said this, but he had to shake his head.

After all, this great Confucian Zuo Xuan was only born in Daqian, not grew up in Daqian.

"It wasn't until his later years that he returned to Nanyang to live in his old age because he thought of his hometown...... When the country was founded, my father wanted to invite Mr. Zuo to serve in the court and shoulder the important task of education, but Mr. Zuo politely refused......"

It was only at this time that Zhao Zheng really understood how big the old Mr. Zuo Xuanzuo of the Nanyang Jingshen had been!

Not only did he not mention the great Confucianism of the world who moved the world for his fame, but he even politely refused the invitation of his father and emperor back then, regarded the important position of a great country, and regarded fame and fortune as a mustard!

Such a Confucian and Taoist master actually rushed to Qinchuan Border County late at night to visit his twelve-year-old young vassal king?

This......

Zhao Zheng thought of this, but he couldn't hold it anymore, even if he turned around and walked towards the guest side hall, he hurriedly left!

"Hey! Brother Huang! ”

Zhao Yun watched the figure of the imperial brother leave, and then suddenly came back to his senses.

"Wait for me! Brother Huang! Yun'er is going with you too!! ”

Immediately, he hurriedly shouted, panicked and rushed out of the door, hurriedly chased after the imperial brother, and also walked quickly towards the side hall.

Thinking that the master of Confucianism that he had admired for a long time was about to appear in front of him, Zhao Yun's heart couldn't help but feel hot, but the pace under his feet couldn't help but faintly speed up a little......

……

"My king, Mr. Zuo is already waiting in the palace."

Hao Zhen, who was standing outside the hall, saw the figure of His Royal Highness King Qin from a distance, and hurriedly stepped forward, explaining while closely following the steps of His Royal Highness King Qin.

"My king, Mr. Zuo came all the way from Nanyang County, and it was late at night when he arrived in front of the school, and the minister knew that my king was worried about the school recently, so he didn't dare to delay at all, and hurriedly entered the palace to report ......"

Hao Zhen hurriedly explained, but saw His Royal Highness King Qin suddenly glance at him, and he suddenly froze, and immediately stopped talking.

But he could obviously see that there was no annoyance in His Highness's eyes, so when His Royal Highness King Qin turned his head again, he immediately added.

“…… After entering the palace, he saw that the lights of my king's bedroom were not extinguished, so the minister dared to open his mouth and report such a great matter to my king......"

Hao Zhen's voice became smaller and smaller, after all, when Mr. Zuo rushed to the school, he had already made it clear that it was too late tonight, and he would meet His Royal Highness King Qin again tomorrow.

Or did he make his own opinion, saying that he would go to the palace to investigate first and see if His Highness was asleep before making a decision.

After entering the palace, Hao Zhen really found that His Royal Highness's bedroom was brightly lit, and he obviously did not sleep.

So I guessed that His Highness was worried about the affairs of the school, and even if he dared to report it, he didn't know if it disturbed His Highness......

"Okay, okay, the arrival of the Great Confucian, this king should be upside down, not to mention not falling asleep?"

Although Zhao Zheng was demoralized for a while, he did not blame Hao Zhen for being too reckless for this matter.

After all, in his own heart, at this moment, he was also very curious about this great Confucian who rejected his father.

In addition, I didn't know that this Confucian and Taoist master suddenly came to visit at night......

What is going on?

……

"I have admired the great Confucian Zuo Xuan since I was a child, and I want to worship him as a teacher but I can't get it.

The emperor personally issued a special invitation, but he was also refused.

Then in Qinchuan County, I suddenly heard that Master Xuan came to visit late at night and wanted to visit the emperor's brother.

So far, I have been able to fulfill my life's wish!

I don't understand when I'm young, and I don't understand why Xuanshi rejected his father and joined the emperor's brother?

Later, when he grew up, he knew that Master Xuan's eyes were like torches, and he knew that the destiny of Daqian was all attributed to my brother! ”
