Zhu Xuan didn't want to stay in the main hall all the time. It was a waste of his time. Imperial studies were important, but sometimes they didn't necessarily have to be learned at Fang Xiaoru's place.
Studying next to Grandpa Huang is more suitable than anywhere else.
"What do you want to do, Your Highness?"
Fang Xiaoru saw that Zhu Xuan was so tired of studying, and had a look of helplessness on his face. He felt that His Highness was used to being wild outside, and now he was so wild that he was not even willing to do academic work.
His Highness, who was able to bring up the mind science at will, no longer exists now.
"Mr. Fang taught me to study because he thought I didn't know how to be an emperor. If I could complete my studies every day and give corresponding insights in advance, wouldn't I know how to be an emperor?"
Zhu Xuan had no choice but to explain: "In addition, the opinions I give every day will be judged by Mr. Fang. If Mr. Fang feels that the opinions are correct, then let me leave. If the opinions are unreasonable, you can let me stay. How about writing it until it feels right to you?”
It sounds like it's pretty good.
His Highness is not an unreasonable person.
Fang Xiaoru thought for a long time and thought that His Highness is indeed smart, but his mind is too scattered. He can relax a little first and then guide him slowly. After thinking about it, he agreed: "Okay!"
Zhu Xuan smiled and said: "Others say Mr. Fang is stubborn, but I think Mr. Fang is quite good."
Fang Xiaoru said with a serious face: "I can't control other people's opinions, but His Highness must correct his attitude. The future of the Ming Dynasty will fall on His Highness's shoulders. I must stubbornly make His Highness willing to learn."
Seeing that he was about to talk about those big principles again, Zhu Xuan quickly said: "Okay, okay, I understand everything Mr. Fang said."
Fang Xiaoru nodded slightly with satisfaction. Seeing Zhu Xuan open the "Zizhi Tongjian" and read it, he felt relieved for the time being and went outside to see how the other princes and grandsons of the main hall studied.
His teaching to Zhu Xuan was to start a small stove.
In order to teach the future emperor of Ming Dynasty, this small stove was opened as a matter of course.
Although he was a little more serious about the other princes and grandsons, he did not have such strict requirements for Zhu Xuan.
Zhu Xuan had no choice but to open the book and take reading notes.
Wait until the notes are almost done, then write down your own opinions.
During this period, Lao Zhu asked Yun Qi to come over. Seeing Zhu Xuan studying so seriously, Yun Qi happily ran back to report.
Yanshenggong Kong Gongjian also came.
He was also the teacher who taught Zhu Xuan to study. Seeing that Zhu Xuan was reading "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" today, he discussed with Fang Xiaoru to read the Four Books and Five Classics tomorrow.
Fang Xiaoru still agreed.
Zhu Xuan: "..."
"Two gentlemen, could you please let me read "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" first?"
He couldn't help but ask.
Kong Gongjian pretended to be a strict teacher and said solemnly: "Of course not. Your Highness is the crown prince of the country. How can the future Emperor of the Ming Dynasty govern the country and treat the people of the world with courtesy if he does not understand the Four Books and Five Classics in addition to imperial studies?"
Zhu Xuan discovered that Fang Xiaoru seemed to have taken off his hat as a corrupt scholar.
But this hat was picked up by Kong Gongjian.
It also fits quite well.
They put in a lot of effort for themselves.
"The three-year period is coming to an end, and His Highness's identity and status are becoming more and more important."
"If you don't study hard, how can you make up for the knowledge you have wasted in these three years?"
"When Your Highness gets His Majesty's golden book, it will be too late to make up for it."
"As one of the ministers appointed by His Majesty to assist His Highness in his studies, I must shoulder this important responsibility. Please understand..."
…
Kong Gongjian also said a lot more to Zhu Xuan in an upright and awe-inspiring manner.
When Fang Xiaoru heard this, he shook his head helplessly.
I really couldn't stand listening to it.
He also felt that Kong Gongjian was very trembling, but he did not deny that these trembling words were very reasonable, and this was how the crown prince should be treated.
"OK OK."
Zhu Xuan interrupted: "Yan Shenggong is right. I listen to you, but I have finished my homework for the day in advance. Can I finish class early and go out for a walk?"
Fang Xiaoru gave Zhu Xuan a helpless look, and then looked at Kong Gongjian.
This means that whether his can do it or whether Kong Gongjian can do it depends on what Kong Gongjian thinks.
"Of course not!"
Kong Gongjian said solemnly: "Perhaps His Highness will hate me and think that I am cold and heartless, and may even retaliate against you in the future, but I will still use the highest standards to strictly demand Your Highness and never relax."
Zhu Xuan: "..."
He also knew that they were doing it for his own good.
I have never thought about retaliation or other acts in the future, just forget about them and just keep reading!
Kong Gongjian took out the strict teacher's standards. After speaking, he looked at the two officials beside him who were responsible for recording Zhu Xuan's words and deeds. He secretly thought that his teaching just now must have been recorded by them.
It can be recorded in history in the future.
He, Yanshenggong, was able to leave a strong mark in the history books. I felt happy just thinking about it, and he left very satisfied.
Fang Xiaoru said: "Your Highness, you have no distracting thoughts!"
Zhu Xuan spread his hands and said, "I know, Mr. Fang, go and do your work! Don't worry about me."
Fang Xiaoru ignored him. There were still a group of princes and grandsons outside, waiting for him to check his homework and assign tasks.
Zhu Xuan shook his head helplessly and continued reading.
In fact, "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" is really well written.
He has seen it more than once, and now that he sees it again, he can understand a different truth.
Record while writing, and then write down his opinions on the book.
Zhu Xuan forgot how long it had been since he tried to learn as much as he did today, but under the strict requirements of Kong Gongjian, he would need to do more learning.
I'm afraid I won't be able to put down my books all day long.
"I wonder if Grandpa Huang will still call me over to help read the memorial."
Zhu Xuan held his head and thought.
Until noon, Zhu Xuan finished reading the first volume of "Zhou Ji", analyzed and took notes on the reading, and wrote his opinions in the afternoon.
During lunch, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Xu Huizu to bring a special lunch as before.
Zhu Xuan ate happily.
In the afternoon class, it took him more than half an hour to hand in his homework.
Fang Xiaoru read Zhu Xuan's opinion and found it to be very accurate and good. He praised: "His Royal Highness has not lost any knowledge in the three years he has been away. His Majesty must be very pleased."
"Then can I finish class early?"
Zhu Xuan asked.
Fang Xiaoru nodded and said, "Your Majesty, please go and relax! You know, you won't be able to relax tomorrow."
He discussed with Kong Gongjian that he would teach for one day and Kong Gongjian would teach for one day.
Classes are held separately.
Hearing this, Zhu Xuan felt very bad.
But I don’t care about it today, let’s go out of the palace for a walk.
Fang Xiaoru picked up the insights written by Zhu Xuan, went to Wenhua Pavilion to see Lao Zhu, and presented them to Lao Zhu.
"nice!"
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said: "Our dear grandson has not given up his studies in these three years. Like me, what does my dear grandson do now?"
"His Royal Highness has left the palace."
Fang Xiaoru briefly explained their agreement.
Zhu Yuanzhang did not blame him and continued to smile: "Our good grandson has no leisure time. You and Yan Shenggong must teach your good grandson well and be patient."
