At noon in the past few days, Zhao Yao went to Zheng Rang to exchange food.

Knowing that Zheng Rang also likes food and also likes to cook by himself, Zhao Yao felt that he had found a confidant, so he did not hesitate to lend Zheng Rang the food recipes he had collected and let Zheng Rang copy them.

During this time, getting off work every day, yes, it's called getting off work, that's what His Highness Ten said. His Royal Highness also said that after going to the court every day, they came to Lanyuan Pavilion to do things to work. The words "going to work" and "getting off work" are really too apt.

Every day after returning home from work, Zheng Rang would cook according to the recipes lent to him by Zhao Yao and make a lot of delicacies. He only learned some things in the past few days, such as stir-fried vegetables and hot pot, which were made by His Royal Highness the Ten. By the way, there is also a barbecue made by His Royal Highness the Ten.

His Royal Highness Ten has really come up with a lot of recipes in terms of eating, and there are many novel but delicious things, which is really amazing.

Thanks to the blessings of His Royal Highness the Tenth, the food level of Zheng Cheng and Zheng Qian has skyrocketed during this period.

When I got home from work today, Zheng Rang tried to make the hot pot dishes recommended by Zhao Yao. Their family has a strong taste and likes to eat spicy food.

This hot pot dish recommended by His Highness Ten suits their tastes very well. Zheng Rang was very talented in cooking, and he only did it once and succeeded.

The three brothers had a great meal.

After dinner, the three brothers sat under the porch, drinking tea and admiring the moon, chatting.

"His Royal Highness the Ten is an absolute genius when it comes to eating." Zheng Cheng praised, "I didn't expect His Highness Ten to come up with so many delicious things in terms of food, and these are unprecedented." ”

Zheng Rang said with a smile: "I asked His Highness the Ten how he came up with so many novel ways to eat, and he said that people who are delicious will try their best to make all kinds of delicacies." He just played out his delicious nature, as well as his imagination. ”

Zheng Cheng held the teacup and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness Ten is really a wonderful person. ”

"Well, His Royal Highness Ten is also very fun." Zheng Rang said, "Seeing the smile of His Highness Ten every day, my mood can't help but improve." He Xiang said that His Royal Highness the Ten is a pistachio, and as long as he comes to Lanyuan Pavilion, he will bring laughter and laughter to Lanyuan Pavilion. ”

"It's true, as long as you see the smile on the face of the Tenth Highness, your mood really involuntarily improves." Zheng Cheng said with a smile, "I feel that His Royal Highness Ten is very happy every day, laughing all day long, and very energetic." ”

Zheng Rang suddenly thought of the identity of the Tenth Highness, and a touch of distress crossed his eyes.

"It's a pity that the background of the Ten Highnesses is not very good."

Zheng Qian, who had been drinking tea silently without making a sound, heard his eldest brother say this, raised his eyes and looked at Zheng Rang curiously: "Bad background? ”

"The mother of the tenth highness, Zhaoyi Niangniang, used to be the daughter of a county order in Yangzhou, and I heard that Niangniang's father's county order was bought in the previous dynasty. Zhaoyi Niangniang's family has been in business for generations, and she is a well-known businessman in Yangzhou. Zheng Rang introduced, "Zhaoyi Niangniang and His Royal Highness Ten are not very favored, and the maternal grandfather's family has no power, so the ministers in the court are not optimistic about His Royal Highness Shi. ”

Zheng Cheng said: "His Royal Highness Ten doesn't seem to be here, I think it's good that His Royal Highness Ten is like this." ”

He added: "Besides, it is not a good thing to be favored by the minister. ”

Zheng Rang bowed slightly: "That's what I said." ”

"What good is a prince who is not favored by the minister." Zheng Qian said in a light tone, "The prince is not an ordinary person, and if he is not favored by any minister, it means that he is a waste." Ordinary people are not in danger of making waste, but if a prince is a waste, then he is in danger. ”

Zheng Rang and Zheng Cheng understood what their little brother meant, "His Royal Highness Ten is only six years old, and he is still young. When he grows up, maybe some ministers will be optimistic about him. ”

"His Royal Highness's maternal grandfather is already the Taishou of Yangzhou. When His Highness Ten grows up, everything will be difficult to say. ”

Zheng Qian looked at the two elder brothers, "Eldest brother and second brother, you seem to be very optimistic about His Royal Highness Ten." ”

Zheng Rang smiled gently: "We like His Highness Ten very much, because he is a likable child, but it doesn't matter if you don't like him or not." ”

"His Royal Highness Ten is really a very cute and likable little child, unlike you." Zheng Cheng squinted at Zheng Qian, "You haven't been cute at all since you were a child, and you will only bully us every day." ”

Zheng Qian glanced at Zheng Cheng coldly, and said in an indifferent tone: "Who called you stupid......" Before he finished speaking, his head was ravaged by Zheng Cheng.

Zheng Rang originally just wanted to sit on the side and watch the play, but he didn't expect to be implicated, and the three brothers were entangled together.

After a while, the brother sat down obediently and continued to chat.

In the past, when they were in their hometown, the three brothers often sat together like this and chatted.

"Big brother, you are in the court, I'm afraid it's ......" Zheng Cheng's words were not finished, but the meaning was obvious.

Zheng Rang knew what Zheng Cheng wanted to say and gave him a reassuring smile.

"I have made it clear that I will be as loyal to the emperor as my father."

"Big brother, even if you say it, will those people give up on you?" Zheng Cheng felt that his choice to go to Shang Fangling to be a craftsman was the wisest choice. He likes simple things and doesn't like troublesome things. There are too many troubles in the court, and there are a lot of intrigues, which is what he hates the most.

"It's their business whether they give up or not, and it's my business whether I'm willing to be co-opted by them." Zheng Rang said, his eyes suddenly became fierce, "I just want to be a pure minister and realize my ambitions, as for the competition between princes, I have no interest in participating." ”

Zheng Qian said coolly on the side: "Big brother, even if you don't want to, those people will force you to be their person." ”

"Little brother is right." Zheng Cheng is afraid of this, "Our father is too famous, even if he hasn't come back for more than ten years, these people in the court still miss him." ”

Zheng Qian pursed his lips and said: "I said at the beginning not to enter Beijing as Zheng Xilin's son, but you didn't listen, now you know how troublesome Zheng Xilin is." ”

Zheng Rang glanced at Zheng Qian helplessly: "Don't call your father's name." ”

"Big brother, I'm afraid that they will force you with insidious means." Zheng Cheng said with a worried face, "They will think you are easy to deal with." ”

"If they really think so, that's really what I want." Zheng Rang hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled meaningfully, "Although I'm not as good as my father, it doesn't mean that I'm a bully." ”

Zheng Qian said: "Big brother, you don't have to be afraid, you still have me." ”

Hearing the little brother say this, Zheng Rang was very moved. He was about to say something when he heard Zheng Qian say, "Big brother, you are very stupid, but I am smart." I can help you see through their schemes, and I can help you deal with them. ”

The emotion in my heart disappeared in an instant. Zheng Rang gritted his teeth and said to Zheng Qian: "Then I really thank you." ”

Zheng Qian waved his hand and said, "Big brother, we are brothers, you don't have to be so polite to me." Besides, you're so stupid, if I don't help you, you're really going to have an accident......"

Before he finished his words, he was tickled by Zheng Rang.

Zheng Qian was most afraid of itching, and after a while, he fell to the ground, laughing and begging for mercy.

Zheng Cheng also joined in, tickling Zheng Qian's itch with Zheng Rang.

Every time Zheng Qian made them so angry that they couldn't do it, they would tickle him.

The three brothers played for a while, and then went back to their respective rooms to rest.

Before parting, Zheng Rang and Zheng Cheng repeatedly told Zheng Qian not to make too much trouble when he went to Taixue tomorrow to study.

During this time, Zheng Qian has become a celebrity in Taixue, a celebrity in all aspects.

On the first day he entered Taixue, he looked for someone to challenge. During this period of time, he challenged all the famous and talented students in Taixue. Without any surprises, he won.

Zheng Qian has never known what modesty is, and he is very arrogant and domineering by nature. He won others, and he didn't forget to ridicule others for being stupid. Not only that, but he also clearly disliked Taixue, which angered the entire Taixue students.

Now, people ask him to compete every day. At the beginning, it was all compared to poems, songs and articles, but gradually it became more than piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and now it is more than arithmetic and many other things that are sideways in the eyes of students. In short, anything is better than anything.

The students of Taixue thought that Zheng Qian, an arrogant little ghost, could not know everything, but they didn't expect Zheng Qian to know everything. No matter what they compared to Zheng Qian, they all lost to Zheng Qian, and they lost very badly.

Zheng Qian was born literate, not long after he was born, he couldn't speak, but he could know words. When he can speak, he can memorize a lot of poems, songs, and articles.

Since he was a child, he didn't like to go out and play, and liked to stay at home and read. He likes to read all kinds of books, so to speak, as long as it is a book, he likes it.

Zheng Xilin never restricts his sons to what books they read, as long as they want to read them, they can read them, even if it is the kind of book that is unsightly.

Zheng Qian also has the ability to remember, as long as he reads the book, he will remember it word for word. In addition, he is also a very strong learner and can learn from various books.

The students of Taixue were stimulated by Zheng Qian. They are now studying harder and harder, in order to win Zheng Qian and make Zheng Qian apologize for his previous rude behavior.

Zheng Qian was not afraid, and put down the cruel words, saying that none of the students who studied too much could win him.

Zheng Cheng was startled when he saw Zheng Qian smiling, and said with a frightened face: "Little brother, what are you laughing at?" ”

"When did I laugh?" Zheng Qian pursed his lips, his face expressionless, "You read it wrong." ”

"I was absolutely right." Zheng Cheng suddenly thought of something, his eyes straightened, he pointed at Zheng Qian and said, "Little brother, did you do something in Taixue?" ”

"Didn't you and my eldest brother ask me to challenge the students who studied too much?" Zheng Qian said with an innocent face, "I listened to you and challenged them. ”

Zheng Rang was shocked and said, "Why didn't you listen to you?" Thinking of what the junior brother had done before, Zheng Rang couldn't help but worry in his heart, "Junior brother, what did you do to the students of Taixue?" ”

"I didn't do anything, I just challenged them, and they all lost to me." Zheng Qian said, with a disgusted expression on his face, "Sure enough, I expected it, none of the students who studied Taixue were smarter than me." ”

Zheng Rang and Zheng Cheng were helpless, "What did you do to them?" ”

"Little brother, after winning them, you shouldn't say that they are stupid to death, and that the students who are too learned are just like this and so on humiliating, right?" Zheng Cheng really understood Zheng Qian.

"I'm just telling the truth." Zheng Qian's expression looked very pure, "You said before that Taixue is the best academy in Da Zhou, and you also said that the students in it are very good, but in my opinion, they are not very good. ”

"They didn't hit you?" Zheng Cheng has always felt that his little brother is so arrogant, and it is really a miracle that no one beats him.

"Nope." Zheng Qian said again, "Even if they want to beat me, they can't beat me." ”

If those students are unconvinced and want to beat Zheng Qian after losing to Zheng Qian, then there is only one fate for them, that is, they are beaten to the ground by Zheng Qian.

Zheng Qian has been learning martial arts since he was a child, and he learned it very well. Don't look at him as thin and weak, he is actually very capable of fighting. He is also good at mounted archery, especially archery, and can be said to be a hundred shots.

Not only is he a good reader, but he is also very good at other things. Even some deviations, he is proficient. It is very difficult for Taixue students to win him.

"Are you having a good time in Taixue during this time?" Zheng Rang could imagine the picture of Zheng Qian challenging the Taixue students, and he could also imagine the appearance of the Taixue students being ascended to heaven by his little brotherly Qiqi.

Zheng Qian slightly hooked the corners of his mouth: "Very good, they are so fun." ”

Zheng Cheng saw his little brother smile again, only to feel that his scalp was numb.

"Little brother, what did you do again?"

Zheng Qian blinked innocently and said, "I didn't do anything. Now it's them who challenge me every day. ”

"Taixue students challenge you?" Zheng Rang was shocked, "They look for you to compete every day?" ”

"Well, but they still lost." Zheng Qian had a little smile in his eyes, "It's funny to see them come to challenge me with confidence every day, and then lose like a defeated rooster." ”

Zheng Rang and Zheng Cheng: "......"

"Big brother, second brother, you are right about one thing, students who study too much are really more fun than students from other academies."

Zheng Rang said helplessly: "What we are saying is that the students of Taixue are better than the students of other academies, not fun." ”

"I think they're funny." Zheng Qian is now living a very interesting life, "They now think about how to win me every day, and then they are defeated by me every day." I now expect them to compete against me every day, and I like to see them look angry and unwilling when they lose. ”

"I thought they wouldn't try against me again if they lost, but they insisted on playing against me every day. I humiliated them severely, but they didn't seem to care, which was funny. ”

Zheng Rang and Zheng Cheng sympathized fiercely with the Taixue students in their hearts, and at the same time apologized to the Taixue students in their hearts. If it weren't for them to persuade the younger brother to take the Taixue exam, the students who studied too much would not have been bullied by the younger brother.

"The more tenacious they are, the more I want to destroy them and make them understand that no matter how hard they try, they won't win against me." Zheng Qian's tone was smiling, "I'm going to see how long they can hold out." ”

"Little brother, you take it easy." Zheng Rang hurriedly persuaded and said, "The students of Taixue are all shouldering heavy responsibilities, and you can't destroy them." ”

"Little brother, don't bully too hard, otherwise something will really happen."

"Don't worry, I won't play with them all at once, otherwise I won't have fun." Zheng Qian said with a serious face, "I'll play with them slowly." ”

Zheng Rang and Zheng Cheng: "......"

"Big brother, second brother, I'm going to sleep."

"No wonder I said how can my little brother be so honest these days, I thought he met an opponent in Taixue, but I didn't expect him to challenge the students of Taixue, and he also played around with others." Zheng Rang raised his forehead, and his tone was full of helplessness, "Second brother, we have done evil." ”

"Big brother, I'm really afraid that the younger brother will spoil the students who are too learned." Zheng Cheng is now very worried about the students who are too learning.

"When Xiu Mu is over, let's go to Taixue and have a look." They have to go and see if the students who are too good are good, otherwise they will feel uneasy.

"I thought that there would be students in Taixue who were smarter than the younger brother, but I didn't expect that there would be none." Zheng Cheng sighed softly, "It seems that there is really no one in this world who is smarter than the younger brother. ”

"The little brother is amazing enough, if there is one smarter than the little brother, then is this person still human?" Zheng Rang said, "If there really is such a person, it must be a monster." ”

"I wish there was a monster who was smarter than my little brother, otherwise no one in this world would be able to subdue my little brother." Zheng Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "Now the junior brother is interested in the students of Taixue, but when he gets tired of playing, he will definitely leave Taixue, and he will definitely challenge other academies at that time, and there will definitely be a lot of trouble at that time." ”

Zheng Rang didn't want history to repeat itself, so he hurriedly said, "You must not let him challenge other academies." ”

Zheng Cheng thought of Zheng Qian's purpose for coming to the capital, "Didn't the younger brother come to find his lord?" Why didn't you hear him mention going to the lord? ”

"Tomorrow I can remind him not to forget to go to his lordship." Zheng Rang said, "I hope the younger brother can find his lord as soon as possible." ”

"Big brother, it's not too early, let's rest."

"I don't think I'm going to be able to sleep well tonight." After listening to what the little brother said, how could he sleep peacefully.

"Me too."

The brothers looked at each other and sighed at the same time.

The next day, Zheng Rang followed He Xiang to the court, and on the way to the palace, he couldn't help but complain to He Xiang about Zheng Qianlai.

After He Xiang heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "Brother Qian is really your own brother, Lao Zheng's own son?" ”

"Although my little brother is not like us, and he is not like my father, he is indeed his own." When Zheng Rang was a child, he often wondered if his little brother was picked up by his father outside. "My dad never understood why he gave birth to such a rebellious son?"

"It's good to be too studious, just to stimulate and stimulate students who are too learning, so that they can study harder."

"Uncle, I'm afraid that my younger brother will spoil the students who are too learned."

"If it's really bad, it means they're just like that."

Listening to He Xiang's indifferent tone, Zheng Rang took pity on the Taixue students in his heart.

"Brother Qian doesn't look like a person without measure, so you don't have to worry so much."

"Uncle, you are wrong, the younger brother is not a measured person." Zheng Rang sincerely prayed, "I hope that all the students of Taixue will be tenacious and will not be destroyed by the younger brother." ”

"The students of Taixue will enter the court as officials in the future, if they can't even withstand the blow of your little brother, how can they be loyal to the court and benefit the people in the future." Serving the imperial court and benefiting the people is easy to say, but it is very difficult to do. Moreover, there will be a lot of suffering and frustration along the way.

There is also a shift in the evening.

Zheng Qian: While looking for the master, while playing with the students of Taixue.

Taixue students: We will definitely take revenge!

Zheng Qian: With you, you will never be able to win me!

In the end, I still ask for a monthly pass! Ask for a tip! Leave a message!
