The Wenhua Hall in Nanjing Palace City is where the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty studied. In spring and autumn, the emperor also listened to lectures here.
However, Emperor Guangwu of the Ming Dynasty did not have time to listen to lectures at this time. He was on the way to the Northern Expedition.
The father fights his father's battles, and the son reads his son's books.
The old father was very concerned about the education of his sons. Zhu Hengjia personally selected the masters for the princes, especially for the crown prince Zhu Ruoji, he chose Guan Shouzhen, Sun Jinding, He Wuzuo, Zheng Feng,
Seven masters, Guo Zhiqi, Yan Tianfeng, and Sun Guangwei, taught literary and martial arts, archery, horse riding, and archery. In addition, there were more than ten people who read and lectured in the East Palace.
The princes of the Ming Dynasty used to study in Wenhua Hall and Wenhua Back Hall; later, the crown prince and other princes were separated. The crown prince studied in Wenhua Hall, and the other princes studied in the book hall outside Huangjimen (Fengtianmen)
; Emperor Chongzhen is pitiful. The Wenhua Palace is damaged and there is no money to repair it. He simply lets the crown prince study in Duanjing Palace with other princes.
Zhu Hengjia felt that letting his sons study together can promote the emotional harmony between the brothers. The most ruthless emperor's family! He did not want his sons to have the tragedy of fratricide in the future. So, with a stroke of a pen, the crown prince was
Zhu Ruoji, Yi Wang Zhu Ruodeng, and Yu Wang Zhu Ruofeng were all arranged to study in Wenhua Hall.
Zhu Ruoji is just fifteen years old this year. Under the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty, princes at this age must go to the vassal land to join the vassal. However, he is the prince and can stay in the East Palace. Zhu Ruodeng is a few months older than Zhu Ruofeng, and he is both nine years old this year.
, it is the age when you are naughty and playful.
In the Wenhua Hall, the Crown Prince's teacher, Zuodu Yushi Guo Zhiqi, was majestically questioning the students on their homework. The Crown Prince has many teachers, such as Guan Shouzhen, Sun Jinding, etc., all of them are talented people. They are all very careful when teaching and use every possible means to harmonize them.
The prince established a good relationship with the prince. Master Guo was the only one who was ignorant. He insisted on the dignity of a teacher and was extremely strict in teaching. If he was not satisfied with the assigned homework, he would be given a reprimand in the lightest condition and a slap on the palm of his hand with a ruler in the worst case. The princes were all afraid of him. "Your Highness, 'The way of a university is to be clear and virtuous, to be close to the people, and to stop at the highest good. After knowing the stop, you can have concentration; after concentration, you can be still; when you are still, you can be at peace; after you are at peace, you can think about it; after thinking about it, you can gain'", this sentence
What's the explanation?" Guo Zhiqi looked at Crown Prince Zhu Ruoji seriously.
"The purpose of the university is to promote upright moral character, learn and apply it in life, so that people can reach the most perfect state. Only by knowing the state that should be achieved can one be firm in ambition; only by being firm in ambition can one be calm and not irritable; only by being calm and not irritable can one's heart be stable;
Only when you have peace of mind can you think carefully; only when you think carefully can you act appropriately."
Zhu Ruoji answered calmly.
Guo Zhiqi was overjoyed in his heart. His Highness the Crown Prince is so smart, which is really a blessing to the country! Well, we can talk about something more profound.
Although he likes it in his heart, Master Guo's face is serious. Strict teachers produce good students, and to educate the prince, you have to teach with a straight face.
He saw that King Zhu Ruodeng of Yi and King Zhu Ruofeng of Yu were still young and could not understand, so he first asked the two kings to copy the Analects of Confucius, and then told Zhu Ruoji about the Book of Documents.
"In ancient times, the Fuqi clan was the king of the world. He began to draw Bagua and make written deeds to replace the knotting of ropes. This is how literary books came into being."
"The Great Way is also spoken of. The books written by Shaohao, Zhuanxu, Gao Xin, Tang, and Yu are called the 'Five Codes', and they speak of the Changdao." "The ancient books are called "Shang Shu". The meaning of a hundred chapters is unprecedented in the world.
Gotta hear”??
Master Guo talked non-stop for most of an hour. Then, he gave the princes a two-quarters of an hour break.
The three Zhu Ruoji brothers, as if they had been pardoned, came out of the palace to play.
Zhu Ruodeng ordered his chamberlain to take out a simple gourd jar, which contained a cricket with golden wings and long beards. The whole body was green and black, and the head was slightly red. "Third brother, I have a new red-headed general. He will definitely beat you."
"The Lion King with Blue Neck".
Zhu Ruofeng laughed and said: "Second brother, please don't brag. The Lion King with his green neck is a top-notch one. It's difficult to beat him." He asked someone to take out a clay bowl, and inside it was a large insect with a green neck and a white pockmarked head. The chamberlain of the Supervision Bureau put two crickets into the bucket. As soon as the two crickets clicked on their teeth, he called out "click on the teeth", which meant that the game started.
What a bug! Aggressive!
Both bugs are fierce bugs, and they started fighting without being provoked by sharp grass.
"Okay!"
"Bite it!"
Zhu Ruodeng and Zhu Ruofeng were so excited that their faces turned red.
When Zhu Ruoji saw his two younger brothers having fun, he asked him to get some paper and pen and start drawing "Cricket Fighting". He was extremely talented in the art of painting and secretly learned it from the eunuch He Liang, the eunuch who was responsible for the etiquette.
Painting skills. In another time and space, Zhu Hengjia failed to launch an army in Guangxi. It was He Liang who carried the four-year-old little prince Zhu Ruoji and fled into an ancient temple in the mountains and became a monk. When he grew up, Zhu Ruoji became a monk named Balsam Pear and became a monk.
A famous painter. Now, Zhu Hengjia succeeded in raising his army. The Ming Dynasty lost a painter, Zhu Ruoji, and gained a crown prince, Zhu Ruoji.
This kind of thing is the most time-consuming. Two quarters of an hour passed quickly. Seeing that the students had not returned, Guo Zhiqi went out to look for them. He took a look and was so angry that he was shaking all over.
"Absurd, nonsense!"
Master Guo took out a bamboo board two fingers wide, and the three princes trembled in fright. Among the masters, Master Guo's ruler was the simplest, just a bamboo board, but he really dared to hit it.
"Your Highnesses, do you know that this is a drama of national subjugation? The Prime Minister Jia Sidao of the Southern Song Dynasty did this well, and the Southern Song Dynasty collapsed. I, the Emperor Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty, ordered crickets from all over the country to be tributed. The folk song said, 'crickets are screaming, Emperor Xuande wants them', which made the late emperor famous.
Damn. I have to punish Your Highnesses today, please stretch out your hands."
As soon as Master Guo asked him to stretch out his hand, the three princes grimaced and stretched out their hands obediently.
"Master Guo, wait!"
Liu Rong, the eunuch in charge of setting up the supervisory department, appeared. It is said that to serve the prince in his studies, it is enough to send a diary. If that doesn't work, you can always follow him. It's up to heaven to send someone to serve the emperor. The eunuch, the eunuch, and the eunuch are all among the internal servants.
High-level officials rarely accompany him to study. But Liu Rong was Empress Shi's confidant. Seeing that Emperor Guangwu didn't like him, he set his sights on the crown prince and asked for the job of accompanying the prince to study.
Liu Rong became a good person and said, "His Royal Highness is already fifteen years old and should be exempted from punishment."
"His Royal Highness has not yet performed the crowning ceremony, why can't he be beaten?"
Liu Rong knelt down and said, "I am willing to accept the punishment for His Royal Highness."
Guo Zhiqi was extremely angry, his eyes were red, like a lion that chooses people to devour. He stared at Liu Rong and roared: "A traitor is as loyal as a loyal one. How dare eunuchs interfere in politics! In the past, my great ancestor, Emperor Gao, stood at the gate of the palace.
Under the iron monument, 'Ministers are not allowed to interfere in political affairs, and those who interfere will be killed.' Educating the prince is the biggest political matter. Do you want to violate the ancestral system?"
Liu Rong was so frightened that he did not dare to say anything.
With a bang, his three little hands were red and swollen before he was called into the hall to continue teaching.
??
After the lesson, Zhu Ruoji felt very aggrieved and cried in front of Queen Shi.
Unexpectedly, his mother, who had always loved him, was furious this time, "Kneel down! Your father has been fighting for half his life to conquer the world. How difficult it is! You are such an evil son who is too busy studying and having fun. How will you continue your father's ambition in the future?
, ZTE Daming? Stretch out your hand."
Empress Shi held a bamboo board and slapped her son's palms ten times in person, shedding tears while beating her.
After the beating, Zhu Ruoji was ordered to kneel outside the Fengxian Hall for an hour and confess to his ancestors.
??
There is no small matter in the royal family. Although Emperor Guangwu was far away on the Northern Expedition, he had countless informants in the capital. This matter was reported to him secretly by his henchmen.
One is angry and the other is happy.
What I was angry about was that Liu Rong, the eunuch in charge of setting up the supervisory department, dared to interfere in politics and tried to make plans for the crown prince. This was not bad! He immediately issued an order to change Liu Rong to the eunuch guarding Fengyang, and transferred him from the central government to guard the ancestral mausoleum. This
It's better to look at the queen's face, otherwise, I have to kill this slave.
The good news is that Guo Zhiqi is really strong-willed and loyal! He educates the prince with all his heart and does not care about personal safety, honor or disgrace. He is a truly loyal minister!
While sighing with emotion, he offered freshly prepared deer breasts.
When he saw this deer breast, Zhu Hengjia couldn't bear to eat it. This is a good thing. Master Guo has worked really hard to educate my son, so this deer breast should replenish his health!
Immediately, someone rushed eight hundred miles to deliver the deer breasts to Guofu in Nanjing.
He also wrote Feng Xianhan to Guo Zhiqi: "The age is suddenly cold, but the loyalty is as strong as fire. My husband has worked hard to educate the prince, and he has been sincere and magnanimous, and his hard work has made great achievements. I feel deeply about it. I have newly acquired deer breasts, and I haven't had time to taste them. I gave them to my husband. I hope he will have a good life.
