Yingtian Forbidden City, Wenhua Hall.

As a place for princes and grandchildren to study, Wenhuatang is full of bookish atmosphere, and many times it is full of books.

Outside, the current Confucians, who are responsible for teaching the princes and grandchildren, should perform the courtesy of monarchs and ministers to the princes and grandchildren.

But when you enter the gate of Wenhua Hall, there is no difference between monarchs and ministers, only the gift of teachers and students.

A kneeling teacher can never teach a standing student.

Zhu Yuanzhang was born recklessly and has no culture, so he naturally knows the preciousness of knowledge.

Reading more, in his eyes, is always a good thing, after experiencing the hardships of life, Zhu Yuanzhang is very in awe of knowledge.

For the education of his children, Zhu Yuanzhang began to lay out early, and when he had not yet won the world, he recruited talents everywhere, which can be described as a corporal of Lixian.

Like the great Confucian Song Lian, he was invited by him in this way, respected as the teacher of the "Five Classics", and lectured for the prince Zhu Biao.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Zhu Yuanzhang paid more attention to the education of his children and grandchildren, and those who could teach the princes and grandchildren were all celebrities in the world, with high knowledge and deep insights.

It is said that when the great Confucian Song Lian taught the prince, the requirements were extremely strict, and once the prince did not perform well, or failed to pass the homework, he would be punished by the Song Confucian ruler.

The princes were beaten, so they naturally complained to Zhu Yuanzhang, originally thought that Zhu Yuanzhang would favor them, but unexpectedly, Lao Zhu did not show the slightest favoritism, but instead took cloth shoes and slapped them again.

Today, in Wenhua Hall, Liu Sanwu is a bachelor of Hanlin and is responsible for teaching Confucianism to the princes and grandchildren.

And Qi De, Huang Zicheng and others spoke for Hanlin and assisted on the side.

Early in the morning, Zhu Gaochi took Zhu Gaochu and Zhu Gaosui and walked to Wenhua Hall.

At this time, the sky is faint, it is not yet bright, and it is already August, and it is still a little cool in the morning.

"Two younger brothers, I interceded with the imperial grandfather last night, so that you can also enter the Wenhua Hall to study, don't play tricks, in case the imperial grandfather knows that you don't study seriously, it will be bad."

Zhu Gao's chubby body walked on the road, like a big lantern rolling forward, in the past he needed to be supported by others to be able to walk, but today his pace is much steady.

Such a change naturally couldn't escape Zhu Gaoxu's eyes, he looked at the boss curiously, and asked, "Boss, have you taken medicine?" ”

"What medicine?"

"If you don't let people walk so fast today, it's not taking medicine, it's a manifestation from heaven?"

Zhu Gaochi waved his hand and said, "Grandpa Huang pulled me and beat me last night, and it hurt me to death, but don't say it, I found out this morning that my body was not as heavy as before." ”

"Cut, if you don't want to say it, don't say it, why bother to plug our mouths with the emperor's grandfather."

Zhu Gaoxu obviously didn't believe in these, although the emperor's grandfather was the son of heaven, but he was not a god, how could he be cured with a few beats.

Even the good doctors in King Yan's mansion are helpless, let alone the imperial grandfather who is not a healer.

He decided that the boss was reluctant to say it, so he snorted coldly, and simply stopped asking this, but changed the conversation and said, "Boss, you are really, you came here to study and suffer by yourself, how did you bring us here?" Don't say it's for our own good, I might as well go and ride a horse with my uncle! ”

Zhu Gaosui nodded thoughtfully, and said: "Second brother is right, reading is not interesting, they are all rotten articles, there is no use for fart, it is better to practice riding and archery more, and kill more barbarians." ”

"Oh, two brothers, how can you not read this sage's article? This is the great wisdom that governs the world! ”

"Come on, what great wisdom, you call the saint to come out and fight with me, and see that I don't beat him all over the ground to find his teeth."

Zhu Gaochu had a lot of disrespectful words, and the anxious Zhu Gaochi reprimanded him for a while, and said all the way, and unconsciously arrived at the door of Wenhua Hall.

The guards in front of the palace saw that several emperors and grandsons were coming, and they didn't dare to slack off, so they saluted and said, "See Your Highness!" ”

Zhu Gaochi raised his hand and motioned for a few people to get up, but Zhu Gaochu snorted coldly, raised his head and walked in.

Entering the Wenhua Hall, there were already a few people who had been waiting for a long time, and it was naturally not Liu Sanwu and a few people who were busy, but some lowly eunuchs, and these people didn't have to care too much.

"I've seen Bachelor Liu, and I've seen a few masters."

"Minister, I've seen Your Highness."

Zhu Gaochi's attitude was very low, and he took the lead in saluting Liu Sanwu and a few others, he still respected Liu Sanwu a lot, this person is famous, and he has heard a lot.

As for the other two, they are also people with profound knowledge in the world, otherwise they would not stand here to teach, so Zhu Gaochi did not slack off.

On the contrary, Zhu Gaochu and Zhu Gaosui went in and sat down without looking back, only to be told all the way by the boss, both of them were a little angry in their hearts, and they were too lazy to do these red tape.

This situation is naturally in the eyes of Liu Sanwu and others, and the eldest son of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is much better in their hearts, as for the other two, needless to say, the stubborn ones are useless.

Liu Sanwu, as a bachelor of Hanlin, was affected by his son-in-law Zhao Mian's stolen case a few days ago, and almost went to prison for the Duke of Liangguo, but fortunately the prince Zhu Di protected him, so he was exempted from responsibility and was still able to sit in the seat of the bachelor of Hanlin.

Therefore, Liu Sanwu inherited Zhu Di's favor, and he was also a little closer to Zhu Gaochi, and said: "It's still early now, why don't Your Highness sleep for a while?" ”

Zhu Gaochi replied loudly without thinking: "Yan Zhenqing in the Tang Dynasty once wrote a poem saying: 'The three watches are lit up and the five watches are when the boys are studying. The black hair does not know how to study early, and the white head regrets studying late. When I was in Beiping, my father often taught us to study diligently and not to waste our time. Time is fleeting, I dare not waste it, you gentlemen get up early every day to teach here, as a student, how dare I live up to your gentlemen's painstaking efforts. ”

Liu Sanwu looked at the polite Zhu Gaochi, and became more and more satisfied, although Zhu Gaochi was indeed fat, but people can't look good, the sea water can't fight, and if you can be diligent in learning, why care about your appearance.

What's more, his face is easy to change, and his knowledge remains unchanged, Liu Sanwu saw a little bit of Prince Yiwen's posture from Zhu Gaochi's body.

"Your Highness can be diligent in learning, and the minister is relieved, but I don't know what Your Highness has learned before?"

After all, Zhu Gaochi came for the first time, and he had studied in Beiping before, so Liu Sanwu naturally needed to ask a few more words, so as not to teach wrongly.

"I have studied four books, and I have read most of the Pentateuch."

Zhu Gaochi's answer surprised several people, generally speaking, it takes a relatively long process for the princes and grandsons to start from literacy to formal contact with the Four Books and Five Classics.

In ancient times, it was said that learning and reading did not mean the same, and learning meant that the meaning was already clear, which can be regarded as graduation. Reading means reading, and although you don't know what it means, you at least know the content.

"Your Highness has worked so hard to make the ministers admire."

Liu Sanwu praised it, and before he could say a word, he heard a voice coming from outside Wenhua Hall, and after a while, it was Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunxi.

Seeing Zhu Yunwen coming, Qi De showed a little smile on his face, stepped forward to greet him in a few steps, and said, "Your Highness is really early." ”

is different from his attitude towards Zhu Gaochi, Qi De obviously prefers Zhu Yunwen more, and the color on his face has changed a lot.

Zhu Yunwen saluted and said: "I don't dare to accept the teacher to greet me, there are only teachers and students here, and there is no His Royal Highness." ”

Subsequently, he saluted Liu Sanwu and Huang Zicheng: "I have seen Master Liu, Master Huang." ”

Then, Zhu Yunwen looked at the chubby Zhu Gaochi, with a little surprise in his eyes, counting, this was the first time he had met Zhu Gaochi.

In terms of age, Zhu Yunwen is still one year older than Zhu Gaochi, if Prince Yiwen is still there, it will naturally be Zhu Gaochi who will see him first.

But right now, the crown prince is Zhu Di, Zhu Yunwen didn't dare to mess with the rules, and arched his hand: "I've seen Your Highness." ”
