Chapter 369: So Connected

"Oh, that's the kind of thing that." Hearing the news brought by Zheng Xing, Zheng Jifu's mood was very complicated.

How can a seven-year-old girl be so talented? Even if he is a genius prodigy like Tan Xiaotian, his training so far is still based on laying a foundation, not to mention a pampered little girl with fine clothes and fine food? Learning chess at the same time, the time gap of two years can actually reach three sons, on the one hand, it shows that this princess of the crescent moon does have some talent in chess, and on the other hand, doesn't it mean that the children of the princes and nobles who accompany her to learn chess are simply messing around? In a situation like this, the running hall of any chess hall in the capital is enough to be a teacher, and the teacher of these little girls is actually the chess edict of the Hanlin Academy! As a national player, he actually taught a few yellow-haired little girls to play basic skills, if it wasn't for the royal bloodline, how could this be possible?! What's more, that little girl didn't appreciate it, and didn't want the national hand of the Hanlin Academy to teach her, a seven-year-old girl can be regarded as a little thing, I don't know the severity, what about Emperor Jiande? Fifty years old, fifty years old, didn't you think that such a practice is equivalent to slapping the faces of the edicts of the Hanlin Academy, making people feel that they are the highest management body of Go in the Great Zhou Kingdom, and they can't find an outstanding talent to teach the royal princess?

But thinking about it this way, Zheng Jifu will not say what he thinks in his heart, who is the emperor? That is called the true son of heaven, representing the supreme power and majesty, the so-called king has no jokes, will not be wrong, and cannot be wrong, what is said and done, what is right is of course right, and what is wrong is also right, who dares to question it? Who would dare to object? Except for those imperial historians who can even live for the sake of leaving a name in history, who would risk cutting off their heads to make irresponsible remarks about the emperor's decision? Maybe there is, the world is so big, after all, there are people who are not afraid of death. But he Zheng Jifu definitely won't.

"After the ministers discussed, they felt that it was appropriate to leave this matter to the Hanlin Academy, so Emperor Jiande accepted the suggestion and issued a proclamation for the Hanlin Yuan to propose a candidate."

After receiving the will, Jiang Bianxiu immediately called a meeting of everyone, the candidates are not difficult to find, the major families are full of talents, and there are seventy or eighty disciples under the age of ten, and any one of them is enough to teach Princess Crescent. However, this errand is a beautiful but also dangerous, because Princess Crescent Moon has a changeable temper and a quirky personality, and often likes to make small people make trouble, and she is the most favored little daughter of Emperor Jiande, no matter how wrong she does, not only will she not be punished, but it will make Emperor Jiande feel cute and happy, and vice versa. If the little princess is unhappy, that person may be severely punished, and because of this, her teacher has changed eight times in the two years of learning chess. The shortest one has only been taught for two months, and the longest one has not exceeded four months, which is still an adult who knows forbearance and does not dare to offend the Crescent Moon Princess easily. For children who are less than ten years old and have immature hearts, in case they don't know the depths. provoked Princess Crescent Moon and was punished by Emperor Jiande, and that child's future was all over. But on the other hand, if the child sent does a good job, makes Princess Crescent feel satisfied, and makes Emperor Jiande satisfied, then not only will the child's future be unlimited, but even the family with recommended candidates will get a lot of benefits, so it is very delicate to recommend or not to recommend, who to recommend and who not to recommend, and how to choose. ”

It is in this kind of consideration that the three major families have a very serious and fierce discussion, and the final decision is that each of the three major families will recommend a disciple under the age of ten to compete for this place, and as for who gets it in the end, His Majesty the Emperor will make the decision, so it is fair and reasonable, and no one can blame for being suppressed."

After the decision was made, everyone had to implement it accordingly, and after coming back, the lord and several elders in the family discussed for nearly an hour before making the decision to bring Tan Xiaotian to the capital. According to the villain's speculation, the master's decision has at least several benefits, one is that Tan Xiaotian is not a child of the Zheng family, and if he offends Princess Crescent Moon and is punished, the harm caused to the Zheng family will be limited; Second, the candidates sent by the Jiang and Dong families this time are definitely not weak, and the Zheng family's disciples under the age of ten in Beijing do not have an advantage over the two of them, if they lose in other competitions, the face of the Zheng family will be damaged, and sending Tan Xiaotian to fight on behalf of the Zheng family, firstly, Tan Xiaotian's chess strength is not weak, and he may not lose to the candidates of the Jiang and Dong families, and secondly, he was urgently summoned from Yangzhou, and he is not a special trained disciple of the Zheng family. Third, and the most important point, Tan Xiaotian represented the Zheng family, which confirmed his identity as a disciple of the Zheng family, and this identity was still recognized by the Son of Heaven. Zheng Xing analyzed one by one - how can a person with a poor brain be the second housekeeper of the Zheng family, in this kind of family with a history of more than 100 years, people who have nothing in their minds have long been suppressed into scum.

"Well, although it's a guess, your idea is not unreasonable, but in this way, in case Tan Xiaotian is selected to become Princess Crescent's little teacher, then it will take a considerable amount of time to accompany Princess Crescent, although it is beneficial to determine his identity, but this stage is the critical moment to lay down the basic skills, thirteen hours a day is too little, and spending precious time on playing with a little girl is not necessarily a good thing." Although what Zheng Xing said just now was his own speculation, Zheng Jifu knew very well that if he hadn't heard some news, a shrewd person like Zheng Xing would not have said it casually, so nine times out of ten this is his father's true thoughts, but his position is different, Tan Xiaotian can be regarded as a student who has been discovered by him and carefully cultivated for more than two years, compared to the impact of the delay in the normal growth of children, he does not think that it is too urgent to be officially included in the Zheng family two years later.

"Oh, this lord also has considerations, there are a lot of things to learn for the children of the royal family, although Princess Xinyue is a daughter, she can't be omitted, but she has fewer subjects than other princes, and the previous practice is to take Go lessons every ten days, and the class for two hours at a time, the impact should not be very big." Zheng Xing explained. (To be continued......)
