Han You is so angry. If it weren't for his father, who would accompany you to visit the brothel? If I have this time, I can go to Liuhua Pavilion to accompany Yun Xi and tell stories.
Seeing that Han You was really about to leave, Zhou Yan quickly shouted: "Don't forget, you agreed to my promise to travel around the world to Shenshi, let's hang out for a while."
"I'll love your sister."
Han You was really angry. He didn't care whether this boy was a prince or not. He said angrily: "My father is about to be fucked, and he still wanders around with you?"
"You sit down first."
"Dry hair."
"Drink with me."
Han You, who was furious, suddenly became happy again: "Do you know what people in the world pay most attention to?"
"Girls."
"What the hell, girls, it's loyalty. Once we see each other, we become as close as brothers. When brothers are in trouble, they will naturally draw their swords to help."
The young prince nodded his head thoughtfully: "It does make some sense. Pleasure and grudges are as righteous as the sky."
Han You quickly sat down and struck while the iron was hot: "Although we have only known each other for a day, we hit it off right away, right?"
"It's not the same as before." The young prince hesitated: "You didn't even agree to be my adopted son."
"Brother, you are traveling in the world. You are not the Pirate King who wants to take your son when you meet someone. You rely on friends to make friends. Do you understand?"
"Do you want to make friends?" Zhou Yan asked seriously: "Do you have an official status?"
"No."
"Is there any reputation among scholars?"
"No."
"Do you have connections in Liubujiu Temple?"
"No."
"Then who am I?"
Han You didn't know why: "Aren't you His Highness King You?"
"That's right." Zhou Yan asked seriously: "I am a noble king, why do you want to be friends with you, a cunning man?"
"I..." Han You almost flipped the table: "Why am I still a troublemaker?"
"Originally I wasn't being naughty, but just now you were a little bit naughty when you said you were calling Sister Langben Wang."
"Do you have a girl? I've never heard of a princess in Beijing."
"I have many parents, sooner or later there will be one."
Han You: "..."
Looking at Zhou Yan, Han You sighed, feeling confused: "Okay, drink it quickly. After you drink it, pretend to be the uncle. After you finish pretending, I will take you back to the palace."
After finishing speaking, Han You crossed his arms and looked out the window, thinking about how to find out the details of the young minister of Dali Temple.
Zhou Yan bit his lips, followed Han You's example and sighed, and murmured: "I know that your father is a good official, but I can't help you with this."
Han You was stunned for a moment and looked away: "Since you know that my father is a good official, why don't you help?"
"I have never met the young minister of Honglu Temple and have no friendship. We are one and the same. Although I am a prince, I am the youngest son of the Tian family. I never ask about the affairs of the court, let alone make friends with the courtiers, so as not to be talked about. This is Secondly, and thirdly, this matter is extremely strange. The son of a small household head can actually allow the young minister of Jiu Temple to send a relative guarantor. This matter must be deeply involved. Why did the prince want to wade into this muddy water when I am idle? This matter Fourth, if it is because of you that I go to make a statement and the news spreads, you will be in great trouble. Outsiders will say that my young prince has been bewitched by you. By then, you will be unable to defend yourself. .”
Han You's pupils shrank and he stared at Zhou Yan closely, suddenly realizing that he had thought too simply for this boy.
Staring at Zhou Yan, Han You frowned and asked, "Since you don't want to cause trouble, why do you accept so many adopted sons, and those adopted sons are still domineering under your guise?"
"I don't know about these things." Zhou Yan chuckled: "When something goes wrong, I push back and forth. Even if he is confronted, he still dares to say whether I know about it?"
Han You seemed to have thought of something and asked: "Why do you want to accept an adopted son if you don't want to have anything to do with them?"
"who I am?"
"Your Majesty."
"Yes, I am a prince." Zhou Yan looked out the window and sighed like a young adult: "In all dynasties, have you ever heard of a prince who didn't want to be honored as a great treasure?"
"Yes, very few."
"No, there are many, but others won't think so. Since he is a noble man in the sky, who doesn't want to sit on that ninety-five-year-old throne? Although I am young, if I devote myself to studying in the palace every day, I will be praised by the whole court and be praised by others. What do you think?"
Han You's expression changed slightly: "Study hard and make progress every day. Is he a good prince?"
"Yes, you are so tolerant and scheming at such a young age. You neither fly around nor bully others. You don't care about the court or make friends with ministers. You only study and do what your father wants me to do most. That is Study and concentrate on making your father happy."
Han You coughed slightly and said, "The third lesson of walking in the world is to avoid talking shallowly and deeply. What about that? It's getting late. My lord, you can play by yourself."
Zhou Yan showed a smile that was not suitable for his age again, but it was a bit exaggerated: "Because of this, I want to do something stupid, something that will make people laugh. If the brothers know about it, they will only look down on me." King, if you look down on me, you will not put your thoughts on me. Wouldn't it be comfortable to be a free prince and not disturb the dust?"
Han You looked deeply at Zhou Yan and smiled bitterly.
The child is true, but this child is a prince, a noble man from Tianhuang, how can he be so easily deceived? It is just a simple matter for him to take care of his father's affairs, but the consequences of this simple effort are unknown. .
"I wanted to live happily in the world, but this prison is not the palace, but the huge capital. There are such annoying things everywhere, it's boring."
Zhou Yan drank a glass of wine and put down the glass: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to enter the world, just take me back to the palace."
Han You didn't move. He hesitated for a few seconds and asked softly: "Why do you always miss the so-called Jianghu?"
"Really want to know?"
"I really want to know."
"Okay." Zhou Yan took the initiative to pour a glass of wine for Han You: "In the palace, palace instructors come to give lectures every few days. In addition to the Four Books and Five Classics, sitting, lying, walking, talking, and behaving are all things that need to be taught. Every step you take must be measured, every smile must be scolded, and even the food you eat must not be eaten to your heart's content. A few days ago, I really had enough. I overturned the desk and left the teacher in anger. This prince, I don’t want to do this even for a day.”
Han You nodded slightly, filled with emotion.
How revered are the nobles of Heaven? They have been pampered and well-dressed since childhood. Outsiders are extremely envious of them. But they don't know that at an age that should be fun and fun, they have to be taught everywhere, wear masks everywhere, and suppress their nature, so as not to lose the majesty of the heavenly family.
That's all. There are intrigues and intrigues everywhere in the Tian family. At such a young age, he not only has to protect himself wisely, but also has to do something dirty to avoid being remembered by his brothers.
Zhou Yan drank the wine in the cup and wiped his mouth: "In the palace, the most considerate person is a guard. The guard told me that there are no free people in this world, let alone The nobles of Tianhuang are court officials and traffickers and lackeys, and they have no freedom. If there are really free people, they are also people in the world, laughing loudly, drinking heavily, playing with big women with a lot of money, and they are so unhappy."
Putting down the wine glass, Zhou Yan lowered his head: "That night, I went to the palace to plead guilty and met with my father. My father did not punish me, but said that I should not think about it if I was free. Even if I went to the fiefdom one day, I would still be there. I want to be this restrained prince, so I asked my father what I should do to be free."
Han You couldn't help but ask: "What did the emperor say?"
"My father laughed loudly and said, that's fine. If I can become a good king, then my father will give me freedom. I can live whatever life I want, even if I have to leave this prince's body and wander around the world. , Father will never interfere."
Han You laughed dumbly.
Young, after all, he is still young. If this boy really becomes a wise king, serves the people wholeheartedly, and is praised by the people in the court and the public, then he will no longer dream of being in the world.
Zhou Yan said aggrievedly: "After much thought, I feel that I will never be able to become a wise king, but it is easy to walk around the world for a few days."
Han You was silent for a long time, then asked out of nowhere: "Your Highness, do you...want to be a virtuous king?"
"Of course I did."
"For freedom?"
"That's natural. When you become a wise king, you will be free."
Han You shook his head slightly: "If it's just for freedom, you will never be a wise king."
"Why."
"Because the purpose of the virtuous king is to make more people free, free in their hearts, free in their bodies, for the sake of the country, and for the people. The country will be rich, and the people will be free. However, the people who control it will be busy every day, and how can they be free."
"You mean, if I become a good king, even though I lose my freedom, I can make more people free?"
"That's right." Han You pinched his eyebrows and said, "You may not understand this now, or you may never..."
Zhou Yan suddenly turned his head and looked out the window, pointing at the people coming and going: "If I become a virtuous king, can they freely come to Xianglai Pavilion to find women?"
Han You couldn't help but laugh. Before he could tease him, Zhou Yan asked again: "If I were a good king, and a pregnant woman showed up again, and encountered a horse-riding madman, would these people dare to use their freedom to fight for justice and eliminate evil? ?”
Han You looked complicated and hesitated: "Yes."
"If I were a virtuous king, would the people in this capital be able to laugh freely, instead of working hard on the road and becoming thin and skinny?"
Han You's pupils shrank suddenly: "Yes!"
"Then..." Zhou Yan clenched his fists: "Although I am not free, I can make more people's hearts and bodies free. So why shouldn't I... be the virtuous king?"
"If such a day comes..." Han You stood up and bent down to pour a glass of wine for Zhou Yan: "You will be free by then, extremely free."
Zhou Yan raised his head with confusion on his face: "What should I do?"
Han You stood up again, pointed at the people outside the window and said, "Does Your Highness know what the biggest problem in Beijing is?"
Zhou Yan looked at the people, wrinkled his face and thought for a moment, then said uncertainly: "The people seem to be hungry, and they all have yellow faces and thin muscles."
"Yes, the people are hungry, but the real problem is not that the people are hungry, but that many officials in the court are too hungry."
"what for?"
"Officials were hungry, very hungry, so they ate their consciences."
Recalling the tragic situation of the innocent woman in Jingzhao Mansion today, Han You looked gloomy: "The country is not always strong, and it is not always weak. If those who follow the law are strong, the country will be strong. If those who follow the law are weak, the country will be weak!"
Zhou Yan's expression moved slightly: "Who is the one who doesn't obey the law?"
"His Royal Highness's adopted son, young minister of Jiu Temple, head of the Ministry of Industry!"
"Okay, the first step for the wise king is to kill the adopted son first!" Zhou Yan slapped the table and put his hands behind his back: "I have taken care of this matter."
Han You was overjoyed: "Thank you, Your Highness."
"Don't be in a hurry to thank me. I want to be a wise king, so can you help me?"
"Ah?" Han You didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "How can I understand this?"
"But you understand Jianghu. As you said, wherever there are people, there are Jianghu. If you understand Jianghu, you understand people's hearts better. If you understand people's hearts, you will know how to help me become this wise king."
Han You was silent, and finally smiled bitterly: "I have no official status, I am idle and unruly, your highness should hire someone else."
"If you are willing to help me, I, the king, will recommend you to be an official in the court, okay?"
"Just me?" Han You was stunned and pointed at his nose.
"Of course it's you, don't you...don't you deserve it?"
"Am I... worthy?"
"A virtuous king needs to be assisted by virtuous ministers. You have no ambition to be a virtuous minister, so why should I trust you to be a virtuous king?"
Han You didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You, the wise king, didn't do it for me. Besides, I don't have the ability."
"No, you do."
"I...have?"
"If you had no ability, you would have already become my adopted son." Zhou Yan's little face showed a half-smile expression: "If you had no ability, you would have already flattered me and tried every means to please me, right?"
Han You's face froze: "Well... I just don't like to be someone else's son."
"The other person you are talking about is the prince. A person who is unwilling to please the prince must be proud. A proud person is probably capable. In the capital, a person who is proud but has no ability will not survive for a few days."
Han You's expression was extremely incomprehensible, and he couldn't help but look at it seriously: "Your Highness, what else can you see?"
"I ask you, why are you looking for me, the king, but not the young minister of Honglu Temple?"
"Forehead…"
"I am here to tell you, because you are disdainful, because you are aggrieved for the injured peasant girl, and because you think that one day you will seek justice for the peasant girl, so you would rather come and go. I don’t want to go to the young minister to apologize. A person who wants to seek justice for a peasant girl, does he have the ability?"
Han You was silent.
Zhou Yan, however, thought of himself and said: "You said that the officials in the capital were so hungry that they even ate their consciences. Others dare not say this, but you dare. People who do not have the ambition to rise to the top are definitely Those who dare not say, no proud person, absolutely dare not say, no one who aspires to the throne, absolutely dare not say, this king has only been with you for half a day, what should be said, what should not be said, this king I have said that if you continue to be secretive and pretentious, you are a hypocritical person to the core, and I, the king, will never have a close relationship with you again."
After a long time, Han You stood up and saluted Zhou Yan: "If His Highness's ambition is to be a virtuous prince in the world, then my student, give it a try and become a capable minister who can govern the world. Let's work hard together."
"It's a deal." Zhou Yan's small face was filled with high spirits, and the blockage in his heart disappeared. He slapped the table and shouted: "It's so cool, why don't you join the ladies to join in the fun!"
Han You sighed again.
I don’t know whether this young prince will be a virtuous person in the future, but he’s quite salty now.
