Chapter 21 The Affection of the Elderly
Qi Zhenzhen didn't hesitate at all, she knew Yao's thoughts, but she couldn't agree, she didn't want to cling to a man's body like a silk grass, only the ability she held in her hand in this world was the most real.
Not only about the petty love between men and women, but also about the power and status and the like, like how Xuanhe used to be in the Marquis of Mingyuan, it is a noble family that has been inherited for a hundred years, and it is a first-class marquis, but if this glory is supplemented by strength, it is a mermaid, so she has to learn! And it is necessary to learn proficiently, learn to understand.
"Grandfather, Zhen Zhen wants to learn these skills from my grandfather, although I am still young, but what I have seen and heard along the way has also made me know that only what I hold in my hand is the most real.
Now that my grandfather wants to teach, how can Zhen Zhen refuse, and my mother naturally understands what Zhen Zhen means, but I always have some other yearning in my heart, and I am afraid of making people laugh when I say it, but that idea is getting deeper and deeper, I want to be a self-reliant, not dependent on others, and even use my ability to help some people and fight for my own way. ”
Old Master Qi looked at this little granddaughter intently, it seemed that it was the first time to look at the other party so seriously, and he didn't even miss every subtle expression of Qi Zhenzhen.
Obviously, one of the younger children is one year younger than Yusheng and Zhenya, when they are still laughing and playing, Qi Zhenzhen is so sensible, and she is a very clear and sober person, the little granddaughter is so smart, Master Qi can't help but feel happy.
Hearing what the other party said, he whispered a good word, and then touched Qi Zhenzhen's head with some excitement and said:
"Since you have this mind, then without further ado, from today on, I will teach you all kinds of skills, not only the kind of poetry, books, rituals, music, etc., how to calculate people's hearts, how to plan and then move, including horseback riding and archery, etc.
As for you, don't think about it, I will say to your mother, from now on, remember that you are no longer a coquettish little daughter, and you have the responsibility of our family. ”
After saying this, Master Qi seemed to be afraid that the pressure on Qi Zhenzhen would be too great, and he hurriedly explained:
"Grandfather doesn't want to put a lot of pressure or burden on you, it's just that now your eldest uncle and others are staying in Nanding Town, and you will be so stable for a lifetime in the future.
And your second cousin is alone in the capital, I don't think the new emperor should embarrass her, after all, she maintained the new emperor like that, even if the monarch is cold-hearted, but people are not grass and trees, who can be ruthless, he will never treat your cousin too harshly, but he will not be lenient because of her.
As for the third room, I don't count on your father's side, now I only concentrate on cultivating you, not to let you fight for anything, but if you have the opportunity in the future, my grandfather hopes that you can catch it, not only for the Qi family, but also for yourself, don't think about climbing others, you need to be hard to strike iron. ”
Qi Zhenzhen nodded thoughtfully, and then in exchange for a sigh of pity from Master Qi.
In fact, Master Qi doesn't know whether this road is right or not, just like when he chose to go to the west or not, he has his own ideas, and his children also have their children's thoughts, so he only lets them make their own choices.
Now that Qi Zhenzhen has shown his talent, he can't bear to let the other party be wasted in vain, so he has this thought.
It was night, after dinner, Master Qi called everyone in the Qi family over, he touched Qi Zhenzhen's head and said to them that he had something to tell you, it was about Qi Zhenzhen, only to hear him say slowly:
"Zhen Zhen is a talent, I have the heart to focus on cultivating it, you all have your own strengths, and teach them together, second brother, your martial arts are good, from today to teach Zhen Zhen some of the simplest moves.
The second daughter-in-law, you are good at reading, and you will come to teach Zhen Zhen to read and write from tomorrow, and you don't need to train her into a talented girl, but you must be sensible and sensible, as for the third daughter-in-law, your father is the Duke of Dingguo, and you have grown up in the military camp since you were a child, so you will only talk about the people and sophistication you saw at that time.
The same is true for Nian Rou, you have been operating in the harem for many years, and you have seen a lot of unpredictable things, so let's tell Zhen Zhen about it together. ”
Second Master Qi is a son of a family cultivated by the Marquis of Mingyuan's family, he is very proficient in both civil and military affairs, and Master Qi asked Second Master Qi to teach, so that Qi Zhenzhen can have the power to protect herself first, and then she can not be restrained by her identity.
And the Li family was born in a scholarly family, and Master Qi asked her to teach Qi Zhenzhen, so that the other party could know the truth, Yao and Concubine Rou needless to say, this was a compulsory course for the big family, but now that they are so homeless, they can only rely on some verbal experience to increase Qi Zhenzhen's knowledge in this area.
The others should be one by one, but Yao Shi listened to Master Qi's words, but her face was very entangled, she hesitated for a long time and then said:
"Father, Zhen Zhen is still young, and it is naturally good for my father to have the heart to teach it, but my daughter-in-law always wants Zhen Zhen to learn some embroidery and the like, and then she will be able to make a good family after the marriage."
Yao's words were earnest, this was indeed what she thought in her heart, she knew Qi Zhenzhen's thoughts, but she was always a little disapproving, in Yao's view, the position of power is not something that a small Zhen Zhen can grasp, and if Qi Zhen Zhen can meet a good person, and then marry and teach children, it will already be very good.
It's just that she used to talk to Qi Zhenzhen about the other party always impatiently listening, Yao originally just wanted to teach slowly, but unexpectedly, the words that Master Qi suddenly said today were obviously really moving, so Yao didn't dare to delay, and was busy telling his thoughts and dishes.
Before she could open her mouth to explain in detail, she saw Master Qi wave his hand and say:
"I know your thoughts, and I know that you want to find the safest path for Zhen Zhen, and the love of your parents is far-reaching, but have you never thought about what Zhen Zhen wants? In this way, I put my mind fully into it.
Let me tell you the truth, Yao's family, as the daughter of a meritorious hero, had the title of a county lord on your body, and Dingguo Gong had some old friends who secretly supported you, and our Mingyuan Marquis Mansion was also a Qingliu family, but that's it, the third child didn't disrespect you, and even rebelled because we valued you.
Not to mention that the current Qi family is not as good as before, not only has it lost the title of the Marquis of Mingyuan, but it is also an exiled criminal minister, Zhen Zhen does not have so much support on you, but you want her to go the same way as you, are you so sure that Zhen Zhen will definitely meet such a good person?
If it's like you, then who will be able to rely on Zhen Zhen when the time comes? Zhen Zhen is still young now, and he always wants to learn something, which is what he is willing to do. ”
As soon as Master Qi's words fell, he saw Qi Zhenzhen say firmly towards Yao:
"Mother, all this is what I want, and Zhen Zhen has made a choice and will not regret it, I don't want to be attached to others, live on the elusive friendship of others, and I don't want to gamble on people's hearts. I only believe in myself, and I believe that my own means can make me better. ”
Seeing that Master Qi and Qi Zhenzhen both said this, Yao took a few steps back a little dejectedly, and then said with some depression:
"That's it, Zhen Zhen, you always have your own ideas when you are older, and your mother doesn't want to impose her thoughts on you, only one is that if you don't like it, don't come to your mother, I always have a way out for you here."
Seeing that persuading Yao's was so smooth, Qi Zhenzhen couldn't help but smile at Master Qi, she knew the worry in Yao's heart, but Qi Zhenzhen was extremely confident, she believed that she could find a way out with what she had learned.
So after the official start, Qi Zhenzhen's time was arranged very full, she was no longer lazy in bed, she became very self-disciplined, and would follow Qi Erye to practice martial arts for an hour every morning and evening.
This body was a little delicate before, after all, it was a lady who had been raised in the boudoir all the year round, but fortunately, Qi Zhenzhen's strong physique passed over with her.
It's just that except for that time after dealing with the officials, Qi Zhenzhen didn't show it in front of everyone again, after all, this is completely different from the original owner.
Now with Qi Erye's teachings to cover up, Qi Zhenzhen's amount of food was already larger than usual after these exercises, so she specially practiced for a while more every time, and her strength was greater.
Everyone didn't have any doubts in their hearts, but Qi Erye's personal teaching was a little surprised, when he and Qi Sanye were taught together, the other party fished for two days and dried nets for three days, and later directly begged Mrs. Qi not to practice anymore.
But he didn't expect his daughter Zhen Zhen to have some talent, it should be because of the Yao family, after all, the original Dingguo Gong was very brave.
And after practicing martial arts, Li will teach Qi Zhenzhen to read and write, and Master Qi will teach Qi Zhenzhen how to plan vertically and horizontally, he originally wanted to talk more shallowly, which is conducive to Qi Zhenzhen's understanding, but he didn't expect that the little granddaughter was quite good at it, so Master Qi taught it more deeply.
Concubine Rou and Yao talked about some of what they had seen and heard in the past.
"It was about a few years ago when I first entered the palace, at that time I was not favored, and my position was still very low, so I could only live in the apse with some high-ranking concubines, and the grandmother who taught me the rules taught me very carefully to be patient and dormant.
At that time, His Majesty favored Liu Zhaoyi and Zhang Jieyu, Liu Zhaoyi's background was much higher, she was the eldest daughter of the servant of the ministry, she entered the palace three years earlier than me, because her family background was outstanding and she was Jieyu when she entered the palace, and His Majesty valued her very much.
And the other Zhang Jieyu is the third-class palace maid of Si Zhenfang, born quite gorgeous, was met by chance when His Majesty visited the garden, but it is very pampered, the general palace maid is only a concubine of the eighth grade, but His Majesty directly sealed her is the seventh grade of the royal girl.
Since then, Zhang Jieyu will inevitably be promoted once a month, and when she was crowned Jieyu, His Majesty also specially gave her the title of Fangrong, and the people in the palace called it Fangrong Jieyu, which was more faceless than Liu Zhaoyi, who was promoted to Zhaoyi.
Later, the two fought, although Liu Zhaoyi was not as favored as Zhang Jieyu, but she was also a little faced, not to mention that she had a net worth, everyone thought that the two would continue to fight like this, and no one could help anyone.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Jieyu, who was in the emperor's heart, was ordered to be killed alive by His Majesty for some reason, and she was not even allowed to enter the concubine's tomb, and was directly discarded as a concubine and discarded at will. ”
When she said this, Concubine Rou couldn't help but shrink a little, with a little fear on her face.
