After Lu Song returned to the palace, he immediately reported the situation to Yuan Zonggao.
Yuan Zonggao was discussing things with Zhang Zuo. After hearing this, he smiled: "This Zhu Hao takes the prince out for a walk just to listen to books and watch a play? Interesting! Interesting!"
Lu Song said: "Based on what he said, he teamed up with others to build the bookstore and stage. He even wrote the scripts and plays. Is there something fishy about this?"
Yuan Zonggao was thoughtful and smiled without saying a word.
Zhang Zuo looked puzzled: "What he said was taught by Tang Yin, but Tang Yin didn't have much time in Anlu. How could he teach him too much? Could it be that the Zhu family behind him was secretly arranging everything?"
Zhu Hao's behavior was too abnormal. Although the whole thing could be blamed on Tang Yin, the question is, if Tang Yin was really so capable and could write novels and plays, why was he always poor and depressed? He still needed the help of a person.
The child's hands reveal these things?
The marks of the ax are too obvious!
Yuan Zonggao smiled and said: "The Zhu family is a military family. Even if there are descendants who go to school, they will never be involved in matters other than literary works. Writing novels and plays are all side paths... Besides, doing this
What does it mean to the Zhu family?"
In fact, there was no need for Zhang Zuo and Lu Song to remind Yuan Zonggao that he had already secretly investigated this matter.
With Yuan Zonggao's wisdom, he couldn't understand how anyone could be so "talented" and could write wonderful novels and plays besides orthodox Confucian articles. There was only one explanation, that is, this Confucian scholar had no chance of entering school and was so talented that he could not
Only by practicing can one be obsessed with such small paths, and Tang Yin of Nanzhili Jieyuan, who was ordered by the emperor not to be an official, was the most likely.
As for the Zhu family...
It's not easy for your Zhu family to cultivate talented people, but also to cultivate novelists and dramatists?
This joke was a little too big.
Lu Song said: "Well, Yuan Changshi, if Zhu Hao continues to lead the prince to neglect his job, is it necessary to expel him from the palace? After all, the prince must put his studies first."
At this time, Lu Song spared no effort to drive Zhu Hao out of the palace.
Zhang Zuo also nodded in agreement: "This child is too evil. Staying in the palace is probably not a good move."
Yuan Zonggao said: "There are no signs that he has led the prince into harm so far, so there is no need to drive him away for the time being... He has saved the prince's life. The Zhu family would never have imagined that there would be such a relationship, right?"
Zhang Zuo and Lu Song looked at each other.
How would they feel if the Zhu family found out that Zhu Hao not only did not harm Crown Prince Xing, but also saved the Crown Prince?
"Okay, Lu Dianzhan, you go back first, I still have to talk to Zhang Fengzheng."
Matters involving the decision-making level of the palace were not something Lu Song could interfere with. He was just a warrior running errands. Although Lu Song knew that the next topic was likely to involve the reception of the eunuch Zhang Zhong, he did not dare to ask more questions and bowed and left.

…
Ever since Zhu Hao took Zhu Si to the bookstore and watched the play "Sun Wukong Three Fights the Bone Demon", Zhu Si's attitude towards Zhu Hao was different from before... From time to time, he would pester Zhu Hao and ask questions, just like
Treat it like an idol.
When Zhu Hao was giving lectures before, even though Zhu Si greatly admired Zhu Hao's knowledge, he did not praise him so much.
Zhu San also changed his previous indifference towards Zhu Hao, as if he did not remember that there was still a conflict between the two of them, and pestered Zhu Hao to ask about the novel and the play.
"What happened next? Tell me quickly..."
Zhu San seemed even more eager than his younger brother. If you have a good story, of course you want to hear the ending.
This is enough to show that in the minds of the two children, "The Condor", about the martial arts disputes between the country, the country and the world, is far less attractive than "Journey to the West". Zhu Hao finally understood why the story of the four masters and apprentices can become a staple of summer and winter vacations.
Already.
Zhu Hao said with a straight face: "Of course we will talk about what happened next when we have free time. Again, if you deteriorate in your studies and the palace holds you responsible, thinking that I led you to bad things, then my hope of staying in the palace to study will be completely eliminated.
Destruction... You don’t want to see me kicked out of the palace either, right?"
Zhu Si patted his chest: "Don't worry, Zhu Hao, if someone drives you away, I will intercede for you."
Although Jinghong also wanted to know the plot before and after "Journey to the West", he was more rational: "The prince's request for a companion is for the sake of your studies. If you really want to drive Zhu Hao away, it's up to you... I'm afraid it won't matter.
use."
"Humph, you stingy guy. In order to be able to study, you only tell half of the story. It's so tempting. It's so selfish." Zhu San started to lash out at Zhu Hao when something didn't go his way.
Zhu Hao said: "If you can learn well, I won't worry about it, but what if... Okay, I won't go into details. Do you want to learn or not?"
Zhu Si was the most sensible person and quickly picked up the book and said, "Can't I learn it well? Should I memorize it all and you can continue to talk?"
"If we can recite it together, you can't do it alone. Your Majesty... you won't lose your temper, right?" Zhu Hao looked at Zhu San again.
Zhu San asked in confusion: "What do you mean by dropping the chain?"
"It means holding back." Zhu Hao explained.
"Come on, let's just say some weird terms. Forget it, I will be very merciful. I will read the book carefully today. If I can memorize it, but you don't say it, don't blame me for being rude to you!"
The words were harsh, but everyone present knew that Zhu San was a talkative king and could not find any way to cure Zhu Hao.
On the contrary, Zhu Hao had many ideas that convinced her.
…
…
Because Zhu Hao used storytelling as a threat and reward, Zhu San and Zhu Si's enthusiasm in class increased significantly.
For many days in a row, what they learned was almost three or four times the usual progress. This was also due to Zhu Hao giving them lectures from time to time and setting up a small stove, and also because Gongsun Yi was laissez-faire.
Gongsun Yi knew that he was not good at what he did. He often asked Zhu Hao to give lectures on the podium, which really ruined his face as a teacher. But he was not a face-saving person to begin with. As long as he could stay in the palace for a while, he would
I don't hesitate to earn more money, even if I am shameless.
When the two little ones were called for assessment again by Zhu Youqiu and Yuan Zonggao, even Zhu Youqiu was surprised. Will the two children's academic progress be so much?
"Father, it's all thanks to Mr. Gongsun's good teaching."
Zhu San was very proud and glanced sideways at Gongsun Yi, showing off his power.
Yuan Zonggao smiled and said: "It seems that Gongsun's teaching is really young and promising. He can find the learning characteristics of the two princes in a short period of time. He teaches students in accordance with their aptitude and does not stick to established methods. He is really a role model for others."
Gongsun Yi was ashamed after hearing this, and his face instantly turned red.
These words are clearly praising Zhu Hao, and at a deeper level, they are praising Tang Yin behind Zhu Hao.
I didn't do anything here, but I was appreciated by Prince Xing and the Chief of Prince Xing's Palace. No wonder the former Juren Tutor was replaced by me... It's not that you are incompetent in terms of feelings, it's that your opponent Tang Yin is too powerful.
Zhu Youqian said: "You should work harder in the future. If you don't understand anything, you should ask your teacher for advice."
"Don't dare to take it seriously."
Gongsun Yi quickly leaned over and saluted. He said he didn't dare to take it seriously, but he really didn't take it seriously. He wanted to say that if they don't understand something, they can just ask Zhu Hao. What's the point of asking me? I can only take it as a lie in front of Zhu Hao. I have a teaching assistant to teach you some basic knowledge and save Mr. Zhu some effort.
Zhu Youping couldn't see the problem here, but Yuan Zonggao was smiling and clearly knew what was going on.
The palace asked Gongsun Yi to replace Sui Gongyan not because of his great ability, but because of his simple background. How could Yuan Zonggao not know how much Gongsun Yi weighed?
With his true level, can he teach the princess and the prince so well?
I'm afraid that if you have any concerns and are embarrassed to speak out, you will lose your job?
…
…
After Gongsun Yi left with a few young people, Zhu Youqian nodded with satisfaction: "Yuan Changshi has a sharp eye. It is really rare to find such a talented person among young people... No wonder you strongly recommended him at the beginning."
Yuan Zonggao smiled, waved his hands and said, "King Xing, don't rush to praise. It's better to listen to what others say."
"oh?"
Zhu Youyi didn't know what kind of medicine Yuan Zonggao sold in the gourd.
Yuan Zonggao then arranged for Lu Song to call Jinghong, who was also a reading companion in the palace.
When Jinghong saw King Xing, he was greatly surprised. Could it be that he had done something wrong and offended the two princes, and King Xing wanted to see me to reprimand him?
"Jinghong, you have been in the palace for a long time. Is it difficult to study with the two princes recently?" Yuan Zonggao's acting style is always the same, and he still likes to go around the bush when dealing with a child.
Jinghong replied respectfully: "Students do their best."
Yuan Zonggao continued: "Prince's academic progress has been rapid recently. It seems that Gongsun usually teaches something unique. Are you listening carefully?"
"this……"
Jinghong didn't know how to answer.
When Zhu Youyi heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Yuan Zonggao curiously. This question was asked very poorly. Is it because the two children have made progress in their studies because they are serious? How do you know?
"How about Zhu Hao's usual studies?" Yuan Zonggao continued to ask.
Jinghong was in a dilemma. How did Zhu Hao study? He should ask how Zhu Hao taught? That shameless Mr. Gongsun found an excuse not long after class to ask Zhu Hao to come out and say a few words. As time went by, even Jinghong I almost forgot who was the teacher and who was the student.
"Zhu Hao...he studies very seriously." Jing Hong said insincerely.
Yuan Zonggao asked: "But why did I hear that Zhu Hao usually talks more in class than he studies?"
As soon as he said this, Zhu Youqian finally knew why Yuan Zonggao wanted to call Jinghong here. He couldn't help but look at Jinghong carefully and thought, before Zhu Hao taught the two children about relationships, now they have a new husband, and it's still Zhu Hao. Are you talking? Then what is the significance of inviting Gongsun Yi back?
Jinghong was an honest and good boy after all. He corrected him: "During class, Mr. Gongsun will give a topic and then ask Zhu Hao to speak. It is true that Zhu Hao speaks most of the time. Recently, Zhu Hao said that only two princes can solve the problem." I memorized everything in class before telling them stories...Then the two princes became motivated to study and worked very hard...so they learned everything."
"what story?"
This time it was Zhu Youqiao's turn to ask questions.
Jinghong lowered his head and said: "It's the story of "Journey to the West". Zhu Hao only told it after class. It didn't take up class time, and he didn't lead the two princes astray. Please be aware of it and don't... drive Zhu Hao away."
