Emperor Hongzhi's face was so gloomy that water dripped from his face!
On the one hand, he was angry that Zhu Houzhao refused to change despite repeated admonitions. It had only been a few days since he had taught him a lesson, but he didn't expect to be like this again today. A dead pig is not afraid of boiling water!
On the other hand, I felt that Yang Tinghe was a little ignorant. Even though Zhang Sheng and Liu Jian were still here, he just cried and complained to the prince, which made him lose face!
But this cannot be blamed on Yang Tinghe, after all, it was his son who failed to live up to expectations! After Hongzhi was good, the emperor sighed deeply in his heart!
"Yang Aiqing, get up! I'm going to have that traitor come over and teach him a lesson right now!"
After saying that, he winked at Xiao Jing. Xiao Jing immediately understood. When he was about to leave, he heard Yang Tinghe saying in a loud voice:
"Your Majesty, wait!"
Emperor Hongzhi's eyebrows almost knitted together, "Ai Qing, what is this?"
Yang Tinghe lifted up his sleeves and wiped his tears. He squeezed out a smile and said, "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood what I meant!"
Emperor Hongzhi was stunned, what does this mean? Could it be that there is something hidden in it?
He immediately ordered people to move to Jindun and signaled Yang Tinghe to speak slowly.
Liu Jian and Zhang Sheng on the other side also sat back silently, just like people eating melon!
After Yang Tinghe sat down, he cupped his hands towards Emperor Hongzhi and said respectfully: "Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty!"
These words not only confused Emperor Hongzhi, but also made Liu Jian and Zhang Sheng equally confused!
Everyone here knows very well about Zhu Houzhao's urinary nature. He is synonymous with being uneducated, unskilled, unmotivated, sneaky, and playful.
Could it be that Yang Tinghe is talking sarcastically?
Emperor Hongzhi squinted his eyes and said calmly: "Where does the Yang Qing family's happiness come from?"
Yang Tinghe took out a neatly folded piece of rice paper from his arms. After opening it meticulously, Xiao Jing took it and presented it to Emperor Hongzhi.
Emperor Hongzhi looked at the rice paper. There were scattered words crookedly written on it. Judging from the handwriting, it was undoubtedly the handwriting of Prince Zhu Houzhao. After all, no one in the entire palace except him could write such ugly words!
However, Emperor Hongzhi still read between the lines and asked tentatively with a frown: "Yang Aiqing, this seems to be about the Tao Te Ching? Prince, he..."
Yang Tinghe had long expected Emperor Hongzhi to ask this question, and immediately stood up and saluted: "Your Majesty, this is exactly what the prince recorded in class today!"
Then he recounted today's teaching situation vividly and vividly.
After hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped!
Liu Jian and Zhang Sheng on the side also looked at each other in confusion. Is this still the prince they know?
You must know that Zhu Houzhao didn't even talk about taking notes before, he didn't even go to class. Even if he occasionally went to class, he did it for himself. Ordinary ministers didn't dare to talk about him and could only turn a blind eye!
It's great now, it's almost like the sun is coming out in the west!
Not only do you come to class honestly, but you also take notes carefully. Although these are some simple principles, they represent a good start!
His Highness the Prince of Ming Dynasty, who had high hopes for him, finally became sensible!
Emperor Hongzhi suddenly stood up from his chair. His face was red and he was breathing heavily. He looked extremely excited and said to himself: "Prince...Prince...he actually knows how to make progress!"
Then he stared at Yang Tinghe with burning eyes and said excitedly: "Yang Qing's family!"
"I'm here!"
Yang Tinghe immediately knelt on the ground!
"The prince is now diligent and studious, and Yang Qing's family has made great contributions! Xiao Banban, pass on my oral instructions, and promote Yang Qing's family to Zuo Chunfang Zuo Yude!"
"Thank you for your grace!"
At this moment, Yang Tinghe was so excited that he couldn't control himself!
Although Zuo Yude only graduated from the fifth rank and seemed to be only half a rank higher than his Hanlin attendant, his status was not the same. After all, he was an official of the East Palace, in other words, he was a minister of the prince!
In the future, once the prince inherits the throne, he will be a close minister of the emperor. As the saying goes, the first to get the moon is the one who is near the water and the tower. This is the truth!
Emperor Hongzhi's face was glowing with joy at this time. For him, nothing was more important than the prince's affairs!
After all, the entire Ming Dynasty will be handed over to Zhu Houzhao in the future. Everything he is doing now is to make Zhu Houzhao easier in the future. But if he follows Zhu Houzhao's unlearned and unskilled nature, no matter how big his family fortune is, it will be ruined. !
But things are different now. Zhu Houzhao has made progress. In the future, when he takes over his own responsibility, he will be able to make Ming Dynasty reach a higher level!
At this moment, Emperor Hongzhi suddenly remembered something, and asked casually and pleasantly: "Yang Qing's family, why has the prince changed so much?"
"This..." Yang Tinghe felt inexplicably embarrassed. He really didn't know this, so he answered honestly: "Your Majesty, I'm ashamed, I don't know the reason!"
"No problem!" Emperor Hongzhi laughed!
Zhang Sheng on the side nodded and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I think it must be your Majesty's words and deeds that have made the prince enlightened! This is the blessing of our Ming Dynasty!"
However, Emperor Hongzhi thought of Chen Ziyu in his heart. Just a few days after coming to Zhan Shifu, the prince had changed completely!
As for Yang Tinghe, Emperor Hongzhi knew very well that Yang Tinghe was very capable and knowledgeable, but it was basically impossible to change the prince's appearance. Only Chen Ziyu could do it!
Uncle Pingjiang, so terrifying!
At this moment, Emperor Hongzhi felt like his heart was overturned!
…
"Ah Qiu!"
Chen Ziyu sniffed and rubbed his sleepy eyes.
Ever since he was assigned a errand as the Yulin Guard, sleeping until he wakes up naturally has long been a luxury.
It's really a torture to drag your tired body out of the warm bed before dawn every day!
No, after bidding farewell to Zhu Houzhao and arriving at Zhan Shifu's Baihu Office, Chen Ziyu found a place to sleep on a chair until now.
Hearing Chen Ziyu sneezing, Yang Huan on the side quickly came forward, holding a cup of freshly brewed hot tea in his hand, and said attentively: "Master Baihu, you're awake! This is the tea I just brewed. , please try to warm yourself up."
Chen Ziyu took the teacup without saying a word, felt a hint of warmth in his hands, and then took a sip, with a satisfied look on his face.
I thought to myself that the damn weather was really cold, especially in this empty hall, as if there was draft from all sides.
However, Chen Ziyu knows very well that today's Ming Dynasty is in the Little Ice Age, resulting in extremely long and extremely cold winters!
"What's the point? Add some charcoal to the stove and heat it up a little more. The mucus in my nose will almost freeze out!"
"Yes, sir, Yang Huan is a humble person!"
"I know, I know, go!"
Chen Ziyu urged Yang Huan impatiently, and then immediately shrank his neck and curled up together.
Yang Huan ran to the corner, added charcoal to the brazier, and then fanned it hard a few times. After the newly added charcoal started to burn, he stopped what he was doing and ran back to Chen Ziyu. in front of you.
