Chapter 5 Master

The reason why Yang Kang did not maintain his usual low-key style was because he really wanted to make Bao Xiqiao happy.

This woman put almost all her efforts on him, and because of the last poisoning incident, the doctor of the Tai Hospital diagnosed Bao Xiweak and was afraid that he would no longer be able to have children.

This was the main reason why Wanyan Honglie was so angry at that time.

Yang Kang's approach has achieved remarkable results, there is no mother who is not happy for her son's intelligence, looking at Yang Kang's well-behaved and sensible appearance, Bao Xi's weak mood can't help but be cheerful.

Bao Xi's weak mood affected Wan Yan Honglie, and he thought that since this was the case, it was time to hire a master for Yang Kang.

There are generally two ways to educate the children of the royal family of the Jin Kingdom, one is to study in the Guozijian under the Ministry of Rites, and learn Jurchen and Chinese, which is the learning method of most of the children of the clan.

The other is to invite famous officials or scholars to teach in the prefecture.

In view of Yang Kang's young age, and the relationship between Wanyan Honglie and the clan forces is not good, in order to prevent the child from being bullied, the second method was adopted.

On this day, Yang Kang was taken into Yan Honglie's study and saw a young man with a handsome appearance, he didn't know that the person in front of him was Yelu Chucai, the prime minister who would assist Temujin in unifying Mongolia in the future.

Yelu Chucai is not famous because he is the father of Yeluqi and Yeluyan, but because of his own talent.

He was originally a descendant of the Khitan royal family, and after the fall of the Liao Kingdom, his ancestors lived in the Central Plains for a period of time, and later became the nobles of the Jin Kingdom, often living in the Central Capital.

He has a family history, has been well-read since childhood, proficient in Chinese, and has dabbled in various miscellaneous studies.

At this time, Zhongdu was the economic and cultural center of the north, and the emperor Wanyan Jing vigorously promoted sinicization, which made Sinology a hot spot sought after by dignitaries and nobles.

This is the reason why Wanyan Honglie is looking for him.

Wanyan Honglie not only wants to find a master for Yang Kang, but also for himself to find a competent staff, of course, this requires a long period of observation to see if this person is worthy of the name.

Yelu Chucai knew that this was an excellent opportunity, and in that fierce palace battle a year ago, Wanyan Honglie had achieved a great advantage and was likely to become the future emperor.

Although this time he was a master for the little prince, it was a good springboard, not only to be able to participate in Yan Honglie's daily affairs, but also to influence the next generation of emperors of the Jin Kingdom.

A few decades later, this title of emperor's master would bring him great fame and power.

Of course, there is a risk in this, if King Jiang Wanyan Hongyu becomes the emperor in the future, then the fate of him and his family will be very tragic.

Yelu Chucai, who had just turned eighteen, stood in the study, and after thinking about it for less than ten breaths, he agreed, and he decided to seize the opportunity.

Wanyan Honglie was very satisfied with this, and asked people to bring Yang Kang over to prepare for the apprenticeship.

This is to settle this matter, the real apprenticeship should be much more solemn, at least invite some famous nobles to come over to give a witness, that is to choose a date, not hasty.

Yang Kang knelt on the ground and kowtowed, offering a cup of tea.

He thought that he would find a white-bearded grandfather to be a teacher for himself, and he shook his head every day and read "Zhihu Ye", but he didn't expect it to be a young man, and he couldn't help but be a little curious.

After the ceremony, Yelu Chucai symbolically asked a few simple questions, and Yang Kang answered them one by one, truly respecting the teacher.

It wasn't until Yelu Chucai left and Yan Honglie gave him a detailed introduction to this master that Yang Kang found out this character from his memory and was immediately surprised.

What surprised him was not that Yelu Chucai later became the prime minister of Mongolia and achieved great things, nor that he gave birth to a pair of children Yeluqi and Yeluyan, but that he never remembered that Yang Kang's master was such a big man.

What is the most feared thing as a time-traveler?

If history changes, then his advantages will be gone, and how to realize the various ideas that have been circling in his mind.

Returning to the room with a feeling of anxiety, he recalled carefully, the story did not seem to mention who Yang Kang's childhood teacher was, except for the opportunity to teach him martial arts in the future, Yang Kang's childhood was a blank.

Thinking of this, he put his mind at ease again and continued to dream his sweet dreams.

In fact, if in the original story, Yang Kang would go to Guozijian to go to school with the children of other clans according to the normal procedure, he would not have met Yelu Chucai, and there would not be such a famous master in the future.

Just because Yang Kang wanted to please his mother, he changed the direction of history, which is the butterfly effect.

Yelu Chucai's teaching method is a little strange, in Yang Kang's opinion, it is a bit of what Confucius said to teach students according to their aptitude, after learning about Yang Kang's learning progress, he did not explain deeper things, but took him out of the palace to contact the outside world.

Before coming to King Zhao's mansion, Yelu Chucai inquired about this little prince, who was said to be a prodigy who could memorize the "Thousand Character Text" backwards.

He doesn't have any idea about a prodigy, he is a prodigy himself, it's a pleasure to be able to teach a prodigy, he is worried that the rumors are wrong, don't meet an arrogant and barbaric little prince, there are not a few such children in the royal family of the Jin Kingdom.

Fortunately, Yang Kang is not bad, at least he has not done anything unbelievable at present, and he is clear and has a decent attitude when answering questions, which is very rare for a four-year-old child.

I heard that the little princess's education in the past was in charge of the princess, and he not only had curiosity about the Han princess who had been hiding in the Zhao Palace.

In the upper class society of the Jin Kingdom, Princess Zhao was a peculiar being, she rarely appeared in public view, and she would not go to other palaces, except for occasionally entering the palace to meet with Concubine Li Shi'er.

There are many rumors about her, but since Wanyan Honglie executed so many people by ruthless means, everyone knows that Princess Zhao is Wanyan Honglie's reverse scale, and no one wants to touch it.

At a royal banquet, King Rong, who had always had a good relationship with Wanyan Honglie, said a joke about Princess Zhao after getting drunk, and let Wanyan Honglie leave without giving any face.

These things can only be gossiped in my heart, Yelu Chucai does not dare to touch the taboo of the future emperor, or do his own work first.

After learning about Yang Kang's current situation, he felt that it was too difficult to teach the Analects and the like now, and children would not understand it at all, and they would get bored, so he decided to take Yang Kang outside for a walk, so that the little prince could see the suffering of the people.

He is an aspirant who wants to make a difference, and the current Jin Kingdom needs a strong emperor to make changes, otherwise it will go into decline.

He can't influence Wanyan Honglie's decision-making, so it is feasible to indirectly use Guò, the little prince, to make a certain influence.

This is the subtle effect.
