Hearing Zhang Liang's compliment, Liu Ying was very happy, "Sir, this is not a compliment. Next, you are going to help my father strategize and fight with Xiang Yu, right?"
Zhang Liang nodded, "Master, what's the matter?"
"No, it's okay!" Liu Ying said with a smile: "I thought that my husband would focus on military and national affairs, so I won't worry about my disciple's studies."
He just wanted to borrow Zhang Liang's name, but he didn't want to suffer the hardship of studying.
Zhang Liang could tell what this kid was thinking at a glance. He really looked like his father in not liking to study.
When he first met Liu Bang, he was like this, but when Zhang Liang told him about Taigong's art of war, Liu Bang realized the value and quickly listened attentively and even drew inferences from one example.
Come to think of it, these two men are not much different!
Zhang Liang knew it well and said with a smile: "Don't worry, young master. Although I want to assist the King of Han, I will not delay your studies. I will find a suitable teacher for you!"
"ah!"
Liu Ying was shocked, that's not what I meant!
Sir, you can't harm me!
Liu Ying suddenly saw a hint of cunning from the corner of Zhang Liang's mouth. Could it be that this person was deliberately trying to trick her?
If I had known this, I shouldn't have rushed to become a disciple.
Liu Ying didn't have the courage to deal with Zhang Liang, for fear of suffering greater losses, so he still found his uncle Lu Ze.
"Uncle, Mr. Zhang said that he would send me some talented people to teach me how to read."
Lu Ze smiled and said: "This is a good thing. The king has promised to make you the heir apparent. Don't be embarrassed and listen to your words honestly. Do you understand?"
Liu Ying nodded, he also knew that this matter could not be avoided.
"Uncle, I came here just to ask for your help... prepare some wine and meat for me."
"Meat and wine? What do you want to do?" Lu Ze asked curiously, "You kid, you can't drink."
"It's not me...it's me who plans to entertain a few gentlemen. My nephew will fall into their hands in the future. If I hand over my nephew in advance, I won't save them from going to my father to complain." Liu Ying was not optimistic about her studies. Great hope, after all, the hardship of going to school is enough once, who can endure it a second time!
Bribing the gentlemen in advance is the best option.
But after telling Lu Ze this matter of course, he found that the uncle frowned and was very surprised. After a moment, he said: "Do you want to entertain sir?"
Liu Ying nodded, "That's right... I know it's inconvenient to be in front of the army, so I came to see my uncle for convenience, so that the banquet won't be too ugly."
When Lu Ze heard this, the corners of his mouth turned up, and he said with a smile: "What do I think it is? It's natural to entertain sir. My uncle will definitely help, so just go ahead and relax."
Liu Ying breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you uncle."
After saying that, he left with satisfaction.
Seeing his nephew leave, Lu Ze shook his head and sighed. He was so happy that he laughed from the bottom of his heart.
At this moment, Liu Bang came in from the outside and saw Lu Ze smiling. Liu Bang was surprised, "Who came just now? What's the good news?"
Lu Ze hurriedly said: "Young master is here, it's not a big deal... Your Majesty is here, is there anything?"
Liu Bang hesitated, seeing that Lu Ze didn't say anything and didn't feel comfortable asking, so he simply got straight to the point, "Mr. Zifang also told me how to deal with Xiang Yu. Xiayi is still too close to Pengcheng. I plan to retreat to Xingyang in the near future."
Lu Ze understood immediately, "Your Majesty, leave with peace of mind. I will defend Xiayi and can stop Xiang Yu for a month!"
Although a month is not long, the opponent is the arrogant Xiang Yu, and Lu Ze is considered capable.
Liu Bang sighed: "We are still a family! Mr. Zifang told me. We need to select a few scholars to teach Ying. It stands to reason that reading and literacy should be done, but I don't look down on those arrogant scholars who talk endlessly... ...But Ying is a stubborn person. Even if he wants to learn the appearance of a Confucian, he still can't do it, so I don't need to worry."
Lu Ze raised his brows slightly and allowed Liu Bang to scold Ru Ru, but said nothing in the end.
…
The next day, Liu Ying stood in front of the door of her residence with her hands lowered, waiting for the arrival of all the gentlemen early in the morning.
This time, there were four or five scholars who came over. The leader was named Sui He. He was not at all happy about becoming the prince's disciple. On the contrary, he frowned and worried, and said to the people behind him: "No matter what, for the sake of Mr. Zhang In terms of love, you still have to do your best.”
A few people behind him had sad faces and sighed helplessly: "I'm afraid we have the best intentions, but there is nowhere to use it!"
Sui He sighed heavily, "She shouldn't be too naughty...teach students in accordance with their aptitude, and teach them according to their aptitude."
These few people arrived outside Liu Ying's residence with the intention of visiting the grave.
"Student Liu Ying, meet all gentlemen."
Liu Ying rushed forward and bowed to the teachers, trying hard to impress them.
For a moment, Sui He was stunned. He didn't believe his ears. He subconsciously looked around and found that it was indeed the little baby in front of him who was saluting them... Sui He quickly returned the salute, "I have seen you, young master. I don't dare to wait." Receive the courtesy of the young master.”
Liu Ying said hurriedly: "Gentlemen, you are too polite. The students are ignorant and it all depends on the teachings of the gentlemen. The gentlemen are like the fathers of the students. Why can't you accept the courtesy of the students? You can afford it!"
Although it is not yet the time when Confucianism has unified the country, respecting teachers and teaching has already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
After all, no matter which school the teacher teaches you, you must be grateful and don't neglect it.
Master, Master, that’s about it.
Sui He and others were pleasantly surprised to see Liu Ying being so polite, but they still had doubts in their hearts, so they could only wait and see...Liu Ying invited them inside. The tables were displayed on both sides, with drinks and tableware on them.
After they sat down, someone brought them steaming mutton stew.
Liu Ying came over in person to share the meat with Sui He and others.
"Sir, the front of the army is very simple. I hope you won't blame me. I will thank you deeply when you return."
Liu Ying's humility gave everyone face.
These people were surprised at first, then frightened, and couldn't help but thank them.
Liu Ying separated in a circle, returned to her seat, and said with a smile: "Students are not allowed to drink yet, gentlemen, please help yourself."
Seeing that everyone still refused to drink, Liu Ying came over again and poured wine for everyone.
With the drinks in their stomachs, these few people finally became less restrained and praised each other, saying that the young master is benevolent and righteous.
Liu Ying also breathed a sigh of relief. Half a sheep and a few jars of wine actually won people's hearts. I have to say that the ancients were still too simple.
From now on, they should not make it too difficult for themselves academically!
Just as Liu Ying was thinking about it, suddenly there was a person who, after drinking a full bowl of wine, burst into tears and burst into tears.
This time Liu Ying was frightened. He came over quickly and said, "Sir, what can I do?"
Suihe next to him was startled and said quickly: "Sir, nothing's wrong."
Liu Yingcai didn't believe it. She could cry like this for nothing?
"Sir, he has read poetry and books, and he must be a sincere gentleman. How could he hide it from me?" Liu Ying said with a straight face: "Gentlemen, you don't want students to learn from your habit of lying, right?"
Everyone was surprised for a while, and then their faces turned red, and they couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"My lord, you don't know something...The King of Han has always looked down on Confucian scholars, insulted and beaten them from time to time."
Liu Ying was stunned for a moment, "Seriously?"
The gentleman who was crying bitterly took the initiative and said: "Back then, when the King of Han was still consecrating the Three Qin Dynasties, during the banquet, he took off his Confucian hat, and unexpectedly, he went inside..."
"How about going inside?" Liu Ying asked in surprise.
"Poop inside!" said the Confucian scholar, crying loudly. It was so humiliating.
Liu Ying was also stunned, as expected of you!
The old gangster's level of bastard refreshed his understanding.
I heard that these people were teachers for Liu Bang's son, and they were afraid that Liu Ying would have the same virtue as Liu Bang, so everyone was afraid of them like a tiger. But they didn't expect that Liu Ying would treat them with courtesy and even give them food and wine. Such generous treatment was really flattering.
Liu Ying asked a few more questions, and these people complained madly... The old gangster did countless ridiculous things, swearing at people, pulling their beards, pushing people to the ground and riding on his back, in short, he did whatever he wanted.
Liu Ying felt her scalp numb when she heard it. Didn't it mean that scholars are highly respected? Why did Liu Bang's painting style become completely different?
These few people just briefly talked about the bastard things Liu Bang did, and most of an hour passed.
Liu Ying asked the biggest question in her mind, "Gentlemen, my father has humiliated scholars like this. How come you are still willing to stay in the Han army, but you have never thought of joining Xiang Yu?"
Upon hearing that Xiang Yu had taken refuge in Xiang Yu, everyone who was still gnashing their teeth immediately showed panic.
"I can't vote, I can't vote!"
Liu Ying was puzzled, "Gentlemen, just tell the truth. I won't tell my father."
Sui He had no choice but to smile bitterly and said: "Young master, you don't know something. When Xiang Yu entered Guanzhong, Han Sheng advised him to let Xiang Yu occupy Guanzhong and dominate the world. Unexpectedly, Xiang Yu actually said that wealth does not return to its hometown, just like walking in brocade at night. After abandoning Guanzhong and returning to the Chu land, there was a great king who could also defeat the Three Qins and capture Guanzhong."
Liu Ying was surprised. It turned out that Jinyi Yexing came from here.
"If Xiang Yu adopts Han Sheng's advice and defends Guanzhong, how can my father compete with him?" After Liu Ying sighed, she curiously asked: "Han Sheng is a talent, where has he gone? Has he surrendered to my father?"
Sui He shook his head and said, "Because Xiang Yu didn't listen to his advice, Han Sheng said that King Xiang was a monkey and won the crown!"
Another idiom!
"What happened next?"
"Later, Xiang Yu cooked Han Sheng in a rage!"
Liu Ying was shocked. It turned out that Xiang Yu had a precedent for cooking people!
Compared with him, the old gangster is quite anthropomorphic.
After pondering for a moment, Liu Ying looked serious and said, "Gentlemen, what my father did was wrong, and Xiang Yu was even more ridiculous. Ying must respect his teacher and respect his teachings. I hope you gentlemen will not hesitate to teach you and correct your mistakes. I thank you all."
