Chapter 17: The Old Lady
Before dawn on the second day, Li Haotian was woken up. After washing, he was led by an old eunuch to the study in front.
Li Haotian saw that the old eunuch was a little angry, so he asked. "This old man, this prince has not seen you in the East Palace. ”
"Back to the prince, the old slave is waiting for His Majesty in the imperial study. The old eunuch said.
"It turned out to be the father-in-law of the Imperial Study. Li Haotian aired.
The old eunuch glanced at Li Haotian, and there was a look of surprise in his eyes, obviously the prince would not have been so polite.
"This father-in-law, who is the teacher who taught the prince? Li Haotian inquired.
"Taifu Feng Hanxue, a veteran of the two dynasties, is very knowledgeable, and is the first scribe of the Tianlong Empire. The old eunuch said.
"The First Scribe. Li Haotian repeated, and suddenly there was a feeling that it would be very difficult to deal with.
"Mrs. Feng is not only the teacher of His Royal Highness the Prince, but also the teacher of Mrs. Feng when His Majesty was the crown prince. The old eunuch said.
Li Haotian remembered at this time that when the real prince asked him to be a stand-in, he said that what he wanted to replace now was to take a poetry class. It seems that the true prince doesn't like this old scholar very much, and the relationship between the two is definitely not good.
Li Haotian thought that he had already arrived at the study, and the old eunuch made a gesture of invitation and stayed outside the door.
Li Haotian suddenly had the feeling that he was called to the office by the head teacher when he was in school, and he subconsciously wanted to reach out and knock on the door to shout the report, but as soon as his hand touched the door, he was just about to shout the word "newspaper" before he realized that he was the prince of the Tianlong Empire at this time, not the student who made trouble.
So Li Haotian walked in with his head held high, and in the study, an old man with gray hair and beard was holding a book and looking at it. Hearing Li Haotian's footsteps, he just raised his eyes.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it's rare to be on time today. There was irony in Taifu's voice.
Li Haotian was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that this prince actually didn't salute when he saw the prince, could it be that this prince was so easy to bully? He was about to have a seizure, when the prince finally put down the book and bowed down slightly. Li Haotian choked back the fire in his throat, and he hurriedly saluted Taifu as a student.
"Thank you teacher for reminding me that Prince Ben has lost part of his memory, and he even forgot that he was late every time. Students should pay attention next time. Li Haotian said lukewarmly.
However, the old lady was not angry, but snorted coldly: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, I forgot to be late, so how many times do you remember the poetry books I taught you?"
Li Haotian doesn't need to read it, he doesn't know any of the characters in the Missan Continent. It's only because he entered the body of the poor family's fourth child that he can say what he said here.
"Teacher, I don't remember any of these words. Li Haotian said.
And so it was. Taifu sneered.
Li Haotian is curious, is it a very normal thing that he can't read?
At this time, the old lady also said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, don't be smart. Pretend to be illiterate, and the old man won't teach you?"
Li Haotian smiled bitterly in his heart, and said in his heart, where am I pretending, I don't know any of these words.
"From this day on, I will teach you to read and write, and at the same time memorize ancient poems. The old lady said coldly, pointing to the bookcase with his hand, Li Haotian had to sit down honestly.
It seems that this old lady is a stubborn person, Li Haotian said in his heart, but it is still quite beneficial for him to learn the words of this Missan Continent with him.
Although the old lady thinks that the "prince" is pretended, she is meticulous in teaching words. After all, Li Haotian was a thirty-year-old adult, and he immediately discovered some rules of the characters of the Tianlong Empire, which were originally developed from pictographs, and then extended and developed, which was quite similar to the development of the characters he originally knew.
Seeing that the prince had some meaning of touching the bypass, the old lady was slightly surprised. An hour later, after a short rest, the old lady began to recite the ancient text for Li Haotian to listen to and memorize. However, the old lady opened her mouth and startled Li Haotian.
The old lady shook her head and said: "The heavens and the earth are yellow, and the universe is desolate. The sun and the moon are shining, and the sun and the moon are shining. The cold comes and the summer goes, and the autumn harvest hides in the winter. ”
What he said was actually "Thousand Character Text", of course, it was slightly different, but it just added some empty words.
Li Haotian couldn't sit still, although he couldn't memorize the "Thousand Character Text", but every morning, the children who went to kindergarten at home had a paragraph on the balcony, and over time, Li Haotian also wrote down half of it.
At this time, Taifu began to repeat the first six sentences again, Li Haotian listened carefully, but there was nothing wrong with "Thousand Words".
How can this be? There are also thousand-character texts in this world? Is it possible to say that this world has some inevitable connection with one's original affairs? Otherwise, why did one come to this world and not to another world?
Not necessarily, it may just be a coincidence in the first few sentences, and the latter ones are completely different.
After the old lady finished reading it for the second time, she looked at the thoughtful look of the "prince" and showed displeasure.
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, can you hear this? ”
Li Haotian nodded, opened his mouth and memorized it, of course, without adding the memorization method of "Xi, Zhi".
Although the back is not all right, but the back is very fluent, which makes the old lady slightly surprised. However, Li Haotian did not stop after reciting the first six sentences, but memorized them in one breath, and it was really more than 100 sentences before he couldn't remember the content behind it clearly and stopped.
And the old lady was stunned on the spot.
"Teacher, can this prince recite correctly?" asked Li Haotian, actually wanting to verify the content behind.
"It's a little bit wrong, but the general idea remains the same. The old lady stared at Li Haotian with strange eyes.
The surprise in Li Haotian's heart was far above the old lady, it turned out that it was really the same, and "Thousand Words" was actually the same.
"It's just His Royal Highness the Prince, the old man has only taught you the first thirty sentences, and you are not very proficient in reciting them. And what you have just memorized is far more than Your Highness has ever studied. The old lady said.
Li Haotian was stunned for a moment, his heart was not good, and he carried too much. So he said: "This prince doesn't know why, he just recited what he remembered in his head." ”
The old lady stared at Li Haotian and suddenly smiled. "Yes, it seems that the crown prince's head injury can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. Not only did I forget all the bad habits of the past, but I also learned new things. In this way, the old man was very relieved. The old lady said, and actually bowed deeply to Li Haotian.
Li Haotian's old lady looked sincere, and hurriedly got up to return the salute.
"Teacher, the student can't remember how he treated the teacher. It's just that when the students first entered the door, the teacher's cold words made the students quite uncomfortable, so they said disrespectful words. I also ask the teacher to forgive my sins. ”
A hint of surprise flashed in the old lady's eyes, and she suddenly laughed "haha". "The children can be taught, the children can be taught. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it seems that you have really forgotten your past, which is a great blessing for Your Highness and a great fortune for the Heavenly Dragon Empire. ”
Li Haotian pursed his lips, and said in his heart, Is the original prince so bad?
"Your Highness, I have learned so far today, and the old man will go to meet Your Majesty and say hello to Your Majesty. The old lady said goodbye and left.
Is it because the crown prince has changed a little?
Regardless of these, it seems that his half-true and half-false performance has made the old lady have a very good impression of herself. Then follow him and learn their words, and then you can read their books. Then we can understand the world better, this empire.
Li Haotian thought about it and told the old eunuch at the door not to disturb, but he took advantage of the fact that there was no one here and took out his racket to watch it again.
The racket is still a racket, and there is no strange feeling. Li Haotian was disappointed for a while, and after putting it away, he seriously studied the words that the old lady had just taught.
