Chapter 171 Grandson, You Are Not Bragging, Are You?(1/2)
Chapter 171 Da Sun, are you not bragging?
Qi Tai saw the cunning look in Zhu Yunxi's eyes, and suddenly felt something in his heart.
It turns out that this grandson is not as calm as he appeared, and he is still a little ambitious!
"They are all great talents in the world, capable of running the world and benefiting the country. They are also leaders in the literary world and masters of scholarship!"
After listening to Qitai's introduction, Zhu Yunxi shook his head dissatisfied.
"Too Xu!"
"To be more specific, what do they do?"
"Are you able to fight, or are you good at settling scores?"
"Is he as capable as Yao Guangxiao?"
Qi Tai was a little emotional when he heard what was said in front of him. He felt that the Third Emperor Sun had a high vision and was quite pragmatic. But when he heard Yao Guangxiao, he immediately broke his guard. What the hell is this Yao Guangxiao?
"His Royal Highness the Third Emperor, not everyone can compare with the three masters I mentioned."
"Also, who is Yao Guangxiao you are talking about?"
"Yao Guangxiao is..."
Zhu Yunxi was stuck. He only knew that he was a fierce man and a key figure in supporting Zhu Di's rebellion. He was called the prime minister in black.
But they didn't know that Yao Guangxiao was just a passerby at this time. He tried several times to become a monk but failed. In the end, he only broke up with Zhu Di and went to Peking to become the abbot of Qingshou Temple.
Not to mention that Qi Tai didn't know this person, even though he was an official of the Senglu Department, it was hard to say whether he still remembered the existence of this person.
“It doesn’t matter who you are, as long as you are very talented!”
"correct!"
"Mr. Qi, who are the three people you want to recommend to me?"
"His Royal Highnesses, one of them is Wei Chen Shigong, a famous scholar in Songjiang whose surname is Yang Tao and whose name is Xinlu. The second is a great scholar in Suzhou and Gaoming. The third is Qin Hengbo, a recluse in Songjiang."
"These three people are all talented in the world and have the ability to manage the world and the country. As long as the three emperors and grandsons treat them with courtesy and worship these three as their teachers, they will definitely help you achieve great things in the future!"
When Zhu Yunxi heard Qitai's high praise, he thought he had recommended several powerful people. But when he heard the names of the three people, he suddenly couldn't bear it anymore.
"It turns out it's the three of them..."
"Your Highness the Third Emperor, do you know them?"
Zhu Yunxi laughed, thinking that they were more than just acquaintances, they had been eating and drinking at my place for some time.
"Fine!"
"No matter how you say it, Mr. Qi has to give you this face. Why don't you just invite them and worship the three of them as your disciples? I'll do it when I leave the palace at night!"
Qi Tai heard the perfunctory tone in Zhu Yunxi's tone and quickly reminded him.
"Your Highness the Third Emperor, please respect them!"
"Uh-huh!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Qi, I definitely respect them!"
Seeing the officials from the next court going out one after another, Qi Tai hurriedly took Zhu Yunxi aside to talk. He gave him a lot of instructions and gave him detailed instructions on the apprenticeship ceremony.
Chen Zongli, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, walked out of Hongwu Gate and saw Qi Tai pulling Zhu Yunxi to make irresponsible remarks, and he felt unhappy.
Although the six ministers did not clearly express their support for whom, the fact that no one explicitly opposed the establishment of Zhu Yunwen as the emperor's grandson was already the biggest statement.
Qi Tai did the opposite. Is this to go against the officials of the Six Ministries?
Thinking of this, Chen Zongli couldn't help but slow down his pace. When Zhao Mian, the Minister of Rites, passed by, he quickly followed him.
"Old Zhao, what do you think of Qitai?"
As Chen Zongli spoke, he waved the wat board toward the moat. Zhao Mian understood and immediately glanced over there.
"You have talent, and you are a rare and capable person, but you are just a little too young."
"Um!"
"You are indeed too young. Young people still need more experience!"
Zhao Mian, the Minister of Rites, smiled slightly when he heard this.
"I have this intention and plan to recommend him to Yunnan to preside over the provincial examination."
When Chen Zongli saw that Zhao Mian had sent Qi Tai to Yunnan with one stroke, he couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.
"Young people, it's better to endure more hardships, so as not to make mistakes when you suddenly rise to a high position in the future!"
"Chen Shangshu's words are very true, I think so too, hahaha..."
While talking and laughing, the two settled on a major event, a major event related to the future heir of the Ming Dynasty.
This is the tacit understanding of the six civil servants. Many things do not need to be made explicit. With a look or an action, each other can understand each other.
Zhu Yunxi stayed up in the main hall for another hour in the afternoon, and then waited for the time to finish school.
After Fang Xiaoru announced that school was over, he couldn't wait to get on the carriage and go to his Yingtianfu Hope Primary School opposite the Imperial College.
As soon as Zhu Yunxi opened the door of the primary school, he saw three old men sitting on the bench at the door, looking at him eagerly.
Zhu Yunxi originally wanted to ignore the three of them, but when he thought of Qi Tai's words, he still had the patience to step forward and say hello.
"Hello, three old gentlemen!"
"Um!"
"good!"
"Three old gentlemen, are you willing to teach me?"
"Let me state in advance that I don't like to be restrained, I don't like to talk too much, and I don't like to be controlled..."
When the three of them heard the first words, they almost agreed. But when they heard the next words, they all closed their mouths.
Isn't this grandson too rude?
It’s okay if there is no apprenticeship ceremony. How can a student explain the rules to his teacher?
And he just said it so casually. If he and others agreed so easily, wouldn't it seem too low-priced?
Qin Hengbo didn't have so many ideas. He always liked to visit immortals and Taoism, and he never paid attention to secular etiquette. He was about to stand up and agree on the spot, but was pushed back by Yang Xinlu.
"Your Highness King Wu, I and I have no intention of serving as officials. We only like to travel around the mountains and rivers. You'd better hire another Gao Ming!"
Originally, Yang Xinluo just wanted to win over Qiao so that he could look good in front of his two old friends. As long as Zhu Yunxi saluted them and said a few nice words, he agreed.
However, what he never expected was that after he said these words, Zhu Yunxi just said "Oh", then turned around and left!
Zhu Yunxi had little interest in the three old men. If Qi Tai hadn't repeatedly warned him, he wouldn't even mention it.
Now seeing that the three of them refused without hesitation, he didn't bother to talk to them.
After Zhu Yunxi left, Qin Hengbo and Gao Ming couldn't help complaining.
"Lao Yang!"
"Why are you so crazy when you have nothing to do? Who asked you to refuse on our behalf?"
After hearing this, Yang Xinlu felt aggrieved and complained bitterly to the two of them.
"Aren't I just trying to earn some face for you two? Who knew that kid couldn't help but tease him!"
"Under normal circumstances, shouldn't it be that we refuse three times and he apprentices three times to show his sincerity?"
"well!"
"You really fail to succeed and fail more than you do!"
In the next three days, Zhu Yunxi taught in the main hall for three days, and they hid in the Yang family house and sighed for three days.
During this period, six ministers of the imperial court came in droves to invite them to serve as officials, but they all refused. Even the King of Qin and the King of Yan came to offer invitations and wanted to hire the three of them as subordinate officials of the palace, and the three of them did not hesitate.
Express rejection politely.
Even though His Highness the King of Jin, on behalf of the royal family, gave them enough face and hired them into the palace to teach the emperor's heirs, they remained indifferent.
They only expected an offer from one person, but this person seemed to have forgotten about them. Not only did he never mention their apprenticeship, he even shamelessly attended the class, and Zhu Yunxi didn't even bother to look at them.
But when Qin Hengbo came to the podium to do the experiment, His Highness King Wu regretfully said "too old", and then nothing happened.
After the three people struggled for a few days, they sent Yang Xinluo to look for Qitai again.
After Qi Tai learned about this, he went to Prince Yu's Mansion that night and stated his interests again to Zhu Yunxi.
"Your Highness the Third Emperor Sun, didn't Wei Chen tell you last time that you have to respect them? How could you not even prepare for the apprenticeship ceremony?"
"Even if you don't have dried meat, you might as well grab a bunch of celery and go to apprentice with me empty-handed. It's surprising that people are willing to pay attention to you!"
"Mr. Qi, I saw that they refused quite simply. I thought they didn't want to see me..."
"I……"
Qi Tai was speechless when he heard this. They were just being polite to him, why did he take it seriously?
