Chapter 21: The Storm in the Study
Seeing that he deliberately didn't bow down to him, Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but change color, and said angrily: "Why don't you worship me?" ”
Bo stood up and said in surprise: "Didn't you just say that in this study, only the etiquette of teachers and students, and the order of the young and the old?" You are the son of my eldest brother, and you or I am the eldest son? Let's hear about it. ”
Zhu Yunwen asked him a question, and said forcefully: "This, this ......." "I stammered, and I couldn't be upright anymore.
It turned out that Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang had lived a poor life since he was a child and had never read any books, and hoped that his sons, who were princes, would receive more education in Confucianism, so that they could always summon the princes into the palace and accompany the prince in this study. He has many sons, and the age gap is huge, such as the crown prince Zhu Biao, the second son Qin Wang Zhu Zhang, and the Jin King Zhu Li are all born to their original match Queen Ma, who are already in their thirties, and Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, are all less than twenty. In order to let these princes humbly ask for advice in front of the young scholars of the Hanlin Academy, so as not to use the identity of the prince to suppress the teacher, the rule was set that no matter whether they were respectful or humble, only the etiquette of teachers and students, and the order of the elders and young were set in this study.
Zhu Yunwen has great respect for the knowledge of Fang Xiaoru in his heart, and he wanted to use this to elevate the identity of the teacher Fang Xiaoru, but he didn't expect to give ** Bo a head of the conversation today, and he hit a rake. He has been smart since he was a child, and he is deeply loved by Zhu Yuanzhang, coupled with his status as the emperor's grandson, his status in the palace is second only to the emperor and his father who is the crown prince.
Zhu Di stood aside, seeing that Zhu Yunwen was embarrassed by the ** wave, he felt schadenfreude in his heart, his face was serene, looking at the ** wave with a smug face, and said in his heart: Zhu Quan, this kid is so cunning and wise, he has this sophistry.
Fang Xiaoru looked deeply at the ** wave who couldn't help but laugh on the side with a pair of bright eyes, and said in his heart: This Zhu Quan is clever and a little anxious, and he actually seized the loophole between the words of His Royal Highness the Emperor Sun in just a few words, and attacked the shield with his spear. He naturally knew in his heart that the crux of the problem was that Zhu Yuanzhang's words were very problematic, but at this moment, he couldn't explain that it was the emperor's fault in front of Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Di, and Zhu Quan, right? In my heart. Hesitant and silent.
**Bo saw that this Mr. Fang frowned, and he was even more proud, his eyes glanced at Zhu Di, and said in his heart: A half-grown boy who has not dried up, it is not so easy for me to kneel to you.
In the midst of embarrassment, I only heard a gentle cough from outside the study. Everyone in the room turned their heads to look, the figures swayed, two people stood at the door of the study, the older man wearing a dragon robe, the old man with a strange face stood at the door of the study, a pair of eyes that seemed to open and closed, staring coldly at ** Bo, without speaking. The other is a young man in his thirties with a slightly sick face, who is the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, the crown prince Zhu Biao and his son.
**Bo gave Zhu Yuanzhang a little hairy in his heart. Fang Xiaoru said: "Weichen Fang Xiaoru 。。。。。 He was about to kneel down and kowtow, but Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand to hold him up, and he couldn't bow down. When Zhu Yunwen was about to bow to his grandfather and father, he also pulled his sleeve, and couldn't help but show surprise on his face, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with a pair of flexible eyes, and then looked at his father Zhu Biao.
When Fang Xiaoru saw that Zhu Yuanzhang stopped him from performing the courtesy of a monarch and minister, and called himself "Mr. Fang", he couldn't help but be surprised, and couldn't help but be stunned.
Zhu Yuanzhang said lightly: "In this study, Mr. Fang does not need to perform this courtesy. He turned his head and looked at ** Bo Leng and said, "You kid can." ”
**Bo Wanwan didn't expect Zhu Yuanzhang's father and son to come at this time, and couldn't help laughing dryly, seeing that Zhu Di knelt on the ground at this time, bowing to Zhu Yuanzhang and the prince Zhu Biao, but Zhu Yuanzhang did not stop him, and hurriedly followed Zhu Di to bow down.
Zhu Yuanzhang waited for the two of them to stand up, and said, "What I said before must be changed today." From today on, in this study, I will be the prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Yunwen, and you, the princes, must be treated with the courtesy of teachers and students. Speaking of this, he turned his head to stare at ** Bo, and continued: "But you princes, no matter when and where, treat me, the crown prince, and the emperor and grandson must be treated as kings and ministers." ”
**Under Zhu Yuanzhang's gaze, Bo had no choice but to bow to Zhu Yunwen solemnly. In his heart, he was ten thousand unconvinced, and secretly said: What kind of bastard bandit logic is this?
It turned out that after Zhu Yuanzhang saw ** wave the day before yesterday, he suddenly found that his seventeenth son, Zhu Quan, was quite unruly, not as good as other sons in front of him, he was willing to summon him into the palace to accompany the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen, that is, to be vigilant to him from time to time, but today he listened quietly outside the study, this bastard boy actually gave Zhu Yunwen and Fang Xiaoru a big embarrassment in public, and couldn't help but secretly think: Zhu Di, this kid is quite urban, resolute and calm by nature, Zhu Quan, this kid, is cunning and witty, It's not an obedient stubble. It seems that in the future, these two boys must often follow Fang Xiaoru, Huang Zicheng and other Confucian children to study, and often learn the way of the monarch and the minister. Thinking of this, he suddenly reached out and picked up the ring ruler on the desk, stretched out his hand and handed it to Fang Xiaoru, and said: "There is Mr. Lao Fang, strictly discipline the two boys for me, so that they know that the way to be a minister is the best." After speaking, he led the prince Zhu Biao to turn around and go out of the study and went far away.
**Bo looked at the ring ruler in Fang Xiaoru's hand, couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and said in his heart: It seems that you have to be more careful in the future.
Zhu Yunwen looked at the ** Bo and Zhu Di who had made Zhu Yuanzhang as tame as a sheep at this time, and couldn't help but secretly think in his heart: It seems that these courtiers must be tamed by thunderous means. This scene in the imperial study today has left an indelible mark on that smart and young heart.
Walking on the way back to the imperial study of Wuying Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the dazzling sunlight on the splendid palace, his eyes couldn't help but sew, his mood was very complicated, recalling those fierce generals under him in the past, Chang Yuchun, Hu Dahai, Li Wenzhong, Zhu Wenzheng, these fierce generals on the battlefield, don't they all have a more or less unruly temperament? When I thought of these fierce generals who were no longer alive, my thoughts seemed to fly to the last years of the Yuan Dynasty, when I led the army and the elite of the Yuan Dynasty, the Yuan army called Wang Baobao by Han name, and more than 100,000 elite cavalry under my command fought in Shanxi, and the kind of corpses in the two provinces of Gansu, the scene of Shura Hell, I couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring.
After decades of "dealing" with the Mongolian Tatars, no one knows better than him the fierce and good fighting of these steppe nomadic tribes, as well as the tenacious vitality of the weeds. Although there are many sons, most of them are mediocre and submissive, and they are unbearable. Although the crown prince Zhu Biao is generous to others, he is not decisive in killing, and he is a little lacking in courage, but he is the king of success. Zhu Di and Zhu Quan are both very strong, thinking of this, they couldn't help but stop, looked at the clear sky in the north, sighed, and said in their hearts: If the Northern Yuan Dynasty resurrects in the future, I will rely on them to be the northern Great Wall of my Ming Empire, defend the territory of the Celestial Empire, and not be ravaged by the iron hooves of foreign races.
At this time, in the study of the East Palace, ** Bo and Zhu Di were already obediently sitting at the low table behind the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen, listening to Fang Xiaoru's lecture.
At this time, Fang Xiaoru had fully understood the intention of Zhu Yuanzhang to specially summon Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, to enter the palace and accompany the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen, and explained aloud the remarks of Dong Zhongshu, a famous scholar during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, "But the Son of Heaven is ordered by heaven, and the world is ordered by the Son of Heaven." ”
**Bo heard his words obscure, and he didn't understand it, but he only knew that it seemed to say that the emperor was called "the Son of Heaven", which means the son of heaven. It is because only the emperor can directly inherit the mandate of heaven, and the rest of the people in the world can only completely and unconditionally obey the mandate of the Son of Heaven, and so on. He is from modern society, and he naturally doesn't believe in these bullshit truths that fool the village husband and foolish women at all, and he listens to it tastelessly, only feeling that Fang Xiaoru's loud voice is hypnotic, a pair of eyelids are fighting, and fatigue is surging, so he can't help but yawn lowly, and he endured it for a while, and finally couldn't bear it, crawled behind the book, and dozed off groggyly.
Zhu Yunwen heard the yawn behind his back, couldn't help but show anger on his face, turned his head to look, and saw Zhu Di, the king of Yan, sitting in a precarious position, listening carefully. **The book on the other side of the wave stood upright on the table, and his head and face could not be seen, and there seemed to be a faint low snoring sound in his ears. Seeing that this Zhu Quan was so lazy, he was annoyed in his heart, and couldn't help interrupting Fang Xiaoru's explanation, and said, "Sir, look." As he spoke, he pointed in the direction of the ** wave.
Fang Xiaoru was far away from ** Bo, and as soon as he began to explain the knowledge, he was fully intoxicated with his body and mind, quite a little self-satisfied, and he didn't notice the actions of ** Bo and Zhu Di for a while, and at this time he couldn't help but get angry when he saw this, and walked quickly to ** Bo, seeing that the other party was completely unconscious, the snoring was still the same, as soon as he gritted his teeth, he stretched out his palm towards ** Bo is a heavy ring ruler.
**Bo didn't dawn today, so he gave his two guards in the palace, Jing Jun and Sima Chao, quarreled and fought, at this time he was sleeping soundly, and suddenly he only felt a sharp pain in his palms, like a rabbit in the arrow, he jumped up like a rabbit, rushed into a rage, looked at Fang Xiaoru who was standing in front of him, and protested: "How can you punish students with corporal punishment?" "With an innocent face, he completely forgot when and where he was.
