Chapter 4: The Prince
The queen walked out of the Xuanzheng Hall and got on the sedan chair directly, Aunt Ji Rong turned her head and instructed Dan Fu: "Keep up." ”
Dan Fu was parallel to the queen's sedan chair, about a cup of tea, the sedan chair stopped in front of a palace gate, but the queen did not get off the sedan chair, nor did she lift the sedan curtain.
"Get out! Get out of here with the book...... Otherwise, I'll cut you down,......" a childish voice roared within the palace walls, like an angry little beast.
Then, there was a sound of porcelain shattering, which seemed to fall in the temple......
"Your Highness! Yesterday, the emperor tested you, and you didn't answer anything correctly, and if you don't read again, you will be punished again......" a little eunuch persuaded in a soft voice.
"Don't read books! Don't look at it! The child's voice sounded more and more angry.
Immediately afterwards, there was a sound of porcelain breaking, which clearly smashed into the courtyard......
"I heard that the queen mother has found a new master for you, and she will be here tomorrow." It should be a servant girl who speaks.
"Really? Is that the master who played with me? ”
"Your Highness......"
The queen raised her hand and slowly lifted the curtain on the window, "Let the Taifu see and smile." ”
Danfu bowed his head and said nothing.
The queen glanced at him, and then at the East Palace behind him, and didn't know how many days this Fu could last, the queen was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly explained, "You are no longer the first Taifu, Xu is a miscellaneous teacher, the prince has learned messily, and now he ......"
"Rest assured, the prince is talented, and Weichen will live up to his mother's expectations." Danfu's tone was firm.
I hope so, the dead horse is regarded as a live horse doctor, and I have to try, and the queen said: "He will say cruel things, he is stubborn, but his character is not bad, and I hope that Fu will bother too much in the future." With a faint smile.
"Wechen obeys!"
The queen nodded lightly, lowered the curtain, and Aunt Ji Rong shouted, "Get up the sedan chair!" ”
Dan Fu waited for the queen's sedan chair to go away, he untied the placket, lifted the hem and tied it around the waist at will, and then rolled up the trouser legs, one high and one low, took off a shoe and put it on his hand, one foot had shoes, one foot stepped on the ground through socks, and swaggered into the gate of the East Palace.
"Stop! Who? The guards stopped him.
"I'm a master! Don't dodge yet! Dan Fu deliberately said in a loud voice.
The guard was a little unhappy and looked at him, "Taifu? You......? "That's it, Taifu? Can this be taught well, the prince...... "Tut-tut......" The guard shook his head.
Dan Fu looked disdainful, "See clearly, it's a product, the emperor personally sealed it!" Waving his hand, "Get out of the way, don't delay me to play with the prince......" The voice is still very high!
The prince couldn't hear anything else, but the word "play" was really heard, and he shouted in the hall: "Let him in!" ”
"Taifu, please!" The guard grimaced and bowed his hands.
The prince was curious about what the prince who played with him looked like, and immediately ran out of the palace, he was still disheveled today, better than that day, at least wearing pants, but if the queen looked at it, it was estimated that he would faint!
He stood outside the temple gate, looking at the disheveled person in front of him, and couldn't help laughing, "Why are you dressed like this?" The prince was curious.
Dan Fu looked at the prince in front of the palace, he was stubborn and prepared in his heart, but when he saw the true god, he was still a little stunned in his heart.
"Then why is the prince dressed like that?" Dan Fu asked him rhetorically.
The prince patted his chest, "Because this prince is happy and wants to wear it like this!" ”
Dan Fu followed the example of the prince, and also patted his chest, "I also want to wear it like this!" ”
"Prince Ben is still wearing shoes, why don't you wear shoes?" The prince asked, pointing to his feet.
Dan Fu raised his hand and pointed at the prince, and replied, "Then I am still wearing clothes, why are you not wearing clothes?" ”
"Do you know you're so disheveled and ugly!" The prince scoffed.
Dan Fu didn't care, and asked calmly: "Then does the prince know that you are as ugly as Weichen?" ”
"Bold! I, I'm going to cut you! The prince pointed at Dan Fu and shouted.
Dan Fu said calmly: "If you cut Weichen, there will be no one to play with you." ”
The prince's face immediately opened to the moon, "Then tell me what you are playing with me?" ”
"Apprenticeship first." Dan Fu said, tidying up his clothes and putting on his shoes.
"Tell me when you worship the teacher?"
"Nature."
The prince glanced at the little eunuch who was close to him, and the little eunuch immediately knelt down and bowed to the prince for him, and the maid brought tea, and the prince gave it to Danfu with both hands, and the ceremony was completed.
"Master, can you tell me now?" The prince can't wait.
Dan Fu yawned and stretched his waist, "It's not early today, the master is very tired, I'll talk about it tomorrow." ”
“……”
The maid took Dan Fu to the side hall, and since then, he has lived here, and at night, Dan Fu is lying on the bed, with his hands behind his head, looking at the moonlight outside the window, and suddenly he misses the old man in his hometown......
On the second day, early in the morning, when the genius was bright, he got up and ordered some very thin planks, very fine nails, a hammer, a wooden chopstick, and a small saw.
When he heard that the prince had gotten up, he took these things and went to the main hall.
In order to be able to start playing quickly, the prince obediently sat down at the table in the main hall together, yesterday he saw that Dan Fu was really ugly in his clothes, and today he himself was dressed very neatly, waiting for Dan Fu to come to class.
As soon as Dan Fu entered, he put the things in his arms on the ground of the main hall, sat on the ground, and crossed his feet.
The prince looked at him blankly, he didn't know what he was going to do, but seeing that he didn't plan to start class at all, he was a little anxious, after all, Aunt Ji Rong said that after learning to play with him, if he doesn't start learning, when will he be able to play?
"Master, let's start the lesson." The prince said.
"No hurry, no hurry." Danfu waved his hand, then crossed his hands, pulled his muscles, and slowly picked up the wood chips and sawed them up slowly with a small saw.
It's time for a stick of incense soon, and the prince sees that he still has no plans to start lecturing, and his heart is very anxious, if it drags on like this, when will he be able to play? "Taifu, let's go to class."
"Don't panic." Dan Fu waved his hand again and continued to saw his wood chips unhurriedly.
The prince beckoned to the little eunuch, the little eunuch attached his ear, and the prince whispered: "You quickly go to the queen mother to tell the queen, and say that the prince is unwilling to give me a lesson, go quickly!" ”
The little eunuch trotted to the queen with a cigarette, "The prince asked the servant to tell the mother, but the prince refused to teach the prince a lesson." ”
The queen was stunned, and pretended to be calm and said, "I know, you can go back." Seeing the little eunuch running away, the queen grabbed Aunt Ji Rong, "Did you hear that?" The prince has come to sue! ”
"Yes, there has always been only the master who came to sue the prince for not going to class, and this is the first time the prince has sued the master!" Aunt Ji Rong also wondered, "Niangniang, do you want to go over and have a look?" ”
"Let's go!" The queen walked to the door and stopped, "No, no, no, I can't go, it seems that I can't trust him." ”
"That'...... Why don't you send someone to take a sneak peek? Aunt Ji Rong leaned into the queen's ear and whispered.
The queen understood and nodded with Aunt Ji Rong.
The little eunuch ran back to the East Palace and stood at the door of the main hall, and the prince saw that he was back, and knew that the queen knew about it, so he wanted to see how the queen mother cleaned up the princess.
The kung fu of a cup of tea has passed, and even the shadow of the queen has not been seen, the prince is angry, as long as there is a master to complain, in the blink of an eye, the queen is on time, what is wrong today? The prince glared angrily at the little eunuch, and the little eunuch nodded desperately.
"That's it!" Dan Fu said, "Prince, come! ”
The prince flashed in front of Dan Fu with lightning speed, and quickly sat down, this is about to start lecturing, right? Finally made him wait! Sitting upright, the super well-behaved kind, with a look of anticipation.
Dan Fu touched it in his arms for a long time, took out a notebook, opened it and looked at it, nodded thoughtfully, closed the notebook again, put it back in his arms, looked at the prince and said, "Let's make a fun car today, and we will run by ourselves." ”
"Good! How? "The prince was pleasantly surprised, he can play without going to class?
Dan Fu took out the book from his arms again, opened it, the prince leaned over to take a look, he immediately closed it, "This is a magical treasure of mine, it is full of novel toys, but I can't show you, only I can see it." ”
At this time, the prince's mind was full of the book, and he wanted to know what was inside, but he deliberately pretended not to be interested, "I don't want to read it, let's say, how to do the car?" ”
"I'm telling you, this little car is fun, and it can run freely on its own! We can make a few more and race! Dan Fu whispered, "Whoever loses will draw Wang Ba on his face...... Do you dare? ”
This is just the prince's temper, he thought that Dan Fu was as boring as those masters before, but he didn't expect that Dan Fu was not only not boring, it was so interesting, he was even better at playing than him, and said excitedly, "Okay, master, let's start doing it, you teach me!" ”
"Well, you sawed these pieces of wood first, I'll squint for a while, I'll look at the book when I turn back, and then I'll teach you the next steps......" After speaking, Danfu leaned back on the prince's chair, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
Who is the Prince? How could he honestly sawn wood chips for him, wait for him to wake up, and then slowly make the car, he was going to play now!
Thinking that Dan Fu was asleep, the prince secretly walked over, put his hand into Dan Fu's arms, carefully opened his clothes, the book showed a corner, the prince pinched and twitched, the book was motionless, it turned out to be suppressed by Dan Fu, was distressed, Dan Fu turned over, the prince was frightened and hurriedly let go, and after a while, he reached out again and took out the book.
The prince couldn't wait to open it and take a look, it was all words, not even a picture, looking at these words, although he knew a few, but scattered everywhere, he couldn't understand what was written on it, but he really wanted to do a good job of the car, he read the words he could recognize one by one, and I really regretted that I didn't learn from those masters before.
This scene was seen by the guard who had blocked Dan Fu before, and just as Aunt Ji Rong told him to keep an eye on it, the man hurriedly ran out of the East Palace and ran towards the Queen's Palace.
The prince looked at it for a while, but he couldn't do anything, so he had to throw the notebook on the table, think about it, if he was found to be the prince of the Southern Jin Dynasty stealing things, wouldn't it be a joke? If it reaches the ears of his father, it must not be good, while Danfu did not wake up, he took the book back into Danfu's arms, and helped him tidy up his clothes, and sat there by himself and sulked.
