Chapter One Hundred and Ninety-Three: The Son of Heaven Worry
"Master Zhang Xiaohou?"
Facing such a young man who was personally sent by Xiao Jing, the eunuch of the Chief of Ceremonies, Xu Xun's expression remained as usual, but Wang Shouren almost stared out of his eyes. This was military training, and Xu Xun, the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War, asked him
The people who came to supervise the army were just doing it for a living. At any rate, it was because of the serious business of military training. However, the emperor sent the Shouning Hou Crown Prince over to observe and give him some advice. What does this mean? Wang Shouren was even in the Ministry of War.
If you don't succeed, you won't let him see the child?
Xu Xun, on the other hand, was serious on the face, but he was laughing so hard, especially when he saw that Zhu Houzhao had just called himself the young marquis, but almost betrayed him when he said his name. However, with a puzzled expression on his face,
He couldn't show this in front of the depressed Wang Shouren. However, when Zhu Houzhao turned around and took a look around under Xiao Jing's guidance, Wang Shouren immediately pulled him aside, his eyes no longer full of depression.
Doubtful and thoughtful.
"Your Majesty is so good, why did you call Prince Shouning to come?"
Because of this matter, Xu Xun first asked Wang Shouren not to go home in the past three months. Just now Xiao Jing reiterated the matter. He saw that Wang Shouren didn't take it to heart at all, so when the other party faced this question, he naturally
It's unhurried.
"The king is in charge. The love between the emperor and the empress is unprecedented, and they have also been very kind to the Zhang family. Am I right?"
Although the government and the public have a lot of dissatisfaction with Empress Zhang, even if they dare not say that she is jealous, most people secretly view her as arrogant. Even Emperor Hongzhi was secretly accused of being a henpecked Emperor of Zhongxing.
However, Wang Shouren and his wife Zhu Shi had been married for many years and had no children, but they never took concubines. Outsiders also used the word henpecked, so he could only admire and admire the deep love between the emperor and the empress, and felt that it was worthy of the common people.
A model husband and wife, it is not like the courtiers who would feel sad and beat their heads and feet at the first word. However, he still did not take it seriously that the Zhang family was so favored.
"That's right, but even if the emperor is courteous to the Zhang family, this time he shows too much favor to the young marquis."
"Yes, but the prince must understand the emperor's good intentions. The Zhang family is the queen's mother's family. Now there are two princes in one family. It seems expensive, but what will happen ten years from now and twenty years from now? What if there are no capable talents in the family?
, that is, just sitting around and earning a mediocre salary. The emperor had just admonished Shouning Hou before, and now he wants to lead the Shouning Hou Crown Prince to the right path. I have to say that this is really a sign of love and care for the Zhang family.
As our ministers, we should also contribute more to this matter, so that Prince Shouning can understand the sufferings of the people, the hardships of the world, and the conditions in the military. After all, this young prince is a distinguished noble, and there is no guarantee whether he will lead the army in the future.
When the time comes for those who go to the battlefield, it doesn’t matter whether they are themselves safe or not. The safety of their soldiers and the safety of their family and country is the most important thing.”
After Xu Xun's reasonable words, Wang Shouren was finally moved by it, and he didn't hear any flaws at all. After all, Emperor Hongzhi's kindness to the Zhang family was almost unreasonable. The most lenient emperor even once because of
His friend Li Mengyang impeached the Zhang family and imprisoned Li Mengyang. There was no way to reverse the emperor's overly partial mentality, so the only choice was to attack the next generation of people in power in Shouning Hou Mansion!
"You are right. If you can lead this young prince to the right path, it will be a blessing to the world!"
Naturally, Zhu Houzhao didn't know that Emperor Hongzhi and Xu Xun planned to attract such a non-staff lecturer to him, and Xu Xun deceived Wang Shouren, who was determined to reform him. In order for him to come out today disguised as Mr. Zhang Xiaohou
, all the eunuchs near the inner school grounds have been replaced, and corresponding arrangements have been made along the way, which can ensure that no one will notice him wandering around here, causing another uproar in the court**o.
And the poor real Mr. Zhang Xiaohou is hiding in Kunning Palace.
Yesterday, I just watched from a distance for a while, so I couldn't get a closer look at the many young soldiers who were similar to myself. Today, Yuan Ran took the opportunity. Zhu Houzhao even waved people over and asked some strange questions, which made the people around him angry.
Xiao Jing had to be on tenterhooks. But he didn't realize what others thought. After asking him, he waved his hand to drive people away. After completing the long circle, he was about to speak to Xiao Jing beside him, but unexpectedly, someone suddenly
There was a sharp bamboo whistle.
This sudden sound made Xiao Jing and others feel as if they were facing a powerful enemy. However, seeing a large number of young soldiers who had just been sitting on the ground to rest, they all jumped up and ran towards the bamboo whistle like flying. Liu Jin immediately
He smiled and said: "Little Marquis, it's time to gather, they are going to practice again!"
"Let's go and have a look!"
Zhu Houzhao had seen a few tug-of-wars yesterday, and today he was curious about what Xu Xun had up his sleeves. He saw a group of people quickly standing up into five big squares, and they started running in a moment. He suddenly blinked everywhere.
Look. After looking around for a while, he happened to see the head of the Ministry of War whom he had met before walking over with his hands behind his back. He immediately waved and said: "You...well, that Wang Shouren, come here quickly!"
For a dignified prince, the only people who need to pay attention to etiquette are the empress dowager and empress of the two palaces, three pavilion elders and countless ministers, and the rest are countless. Therefore, Zhu Houzhao certainly does not think there is anything wrong in calling Wang Shouren by his first name.
.
However, Wang Shouren didn't see it that way. They were both princes, so why was Shouning Hou's prince so different from Xu Xun, the prince of Xing'an Bo? It must be because he was well-dressed and well-fed, and he didn't know the sufferings of the people and the world's sophistication. He must change it.
Just come over here!
"Little Marquis."
"Come on, come on, please explain to me, little Marquis. Isn't the main point of this military training lies in wielding swords and sticks? How can you run so smoothly and beat the enemy? Why do you still shout slogans like one, two, three, four?"
If Wang Shouren was not interested in the Shouning Hou Shizi at first, then at this moment, when he heard the words "Little Marquis" being mentioned on his lips, he frowned even more. However, after thinking about Xu Xun
After what he said, he patiently explained: "Little Marquis, these are the remnants of the vanguard of the government army. They have some foundation in martial arts training before, but they are nothing. So we must practice formation first, and then
The most important thing for a soldier is discipline, for example..."
He suddenly stretched out his palm and made a gesture toward Zhu Houzhao by slowly punching out his five fingers. Then he clenched his fist and punched out: "It's like five fingers. If they work independently, it won't hurt even if they hit someone. But if
If five fingers can be clenched into a fist, it will be a powerful blow."
"Ah, that's what you mean!" Zhu Houzhao immediately nodded after hearing such a simple metaphor, and then said thoughtfully, "According to what you said, before hitting someone, you have to retract your fist and then punch it out.
It’s to accumulate strength. And Xu Xun didn’t let them practice those battle formations as soon as they came up, but it wasn’t real swords and guns, it was actually a kind of accumulation of strength!”
As soon as these words came out, Wang Shouren, who was still a little perfunctory just now, couldn't help but be surprised. After studying Zhu Houzhao for a while, he smiled happily and said: "The young marquis is really smart, he can reach the other side with this!"
Although Zhu Houzhao was often said to be intelligent and gifted by the big men in the court, these people would go to Emperor Hongzhi to complain behind his back. Over time, he also developed a skill that could almost immediately tell if other people's compliments were sincere.
He was still perfunctory and sharp. Now seeing that Wang Shouren was really surprised and appreciative, he became smug: "You can see that I am smart, and you are not simple! You can explain the truth so simply without using any nonsense, you
Compare……"
Because he spoke smoothly, Zhu Houzhao almost said that you are better than those officials in Wenhua Palace, but he finally choked back when he said it, because he changed his words and said: "You are much better than those teachers in my house!"
"Oh, may I ask, Mr. Marquis, how do the teachers in your mansion teach?"
Wang Shouren asked Zhu Houzhao, who had just been scolded by Emperor Hongzhi before. He immediately turned to the bitter scriptures and said: "How else can I give a lecture? As soon as he came up, he first recited it to me with his head shaking, and then asked me to read it to them three times."
Over and over again, and then break it down into one sentence over and over again! Hey, it’s all the meaning of the Four Books and Five Classics, and I don’t take the imperial examination, so why are they talking about all this? It’s better to talk about the Historical Records, Han, and Tang books.
rise……"
Zhu Houzhao naturally couldn't stop himself when he complained. Although he couldn't name the big guys clearly, he remembered it very well. He imitated Liu Jian's eloquence while stroking his beard while explaining the Analects, and imitated Ma Wensheng's lecture.
I remembered it tremblingly, and for a while I imitated the generosity and arrogance of several mature men talking about officials. Finally, I spread my hands and said: "All the talk is empty, it is boring to listen to!"
Although Zhu Houzhao only learned one or two sentences from each one, Wang Shouren still heard some clues and secretly sighed that Shouning Hou actually hired so many very good teachers for his son. It was a pity that he must
The young Marquis was so angry that he left. However, he himself was not a worry-free person when he was young and went to school. Now his initial resistance to Zhu Houzhao had almost disappeared, replaced by a deep sigh.
Learning without knowing the right way, teaching without knowing the right way, this is probably the reason why rich families have so many dandies!
"Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. Is it possible that the young marquis has never left the capital?"
Seeing Zhu Houzhao nodding his head repeatedly, Wang Shouren put his hands behind his back and smiled confidently: "Then, the young prince, would you like to know what the scene is like outside the capital?"
"Of course I do!"
"Well, the knowledge of these old gentlemen is good, but the rules and regulations they talk about are really boring. If Xiaohou Ye doesn't give up, I studied in the capital, went to Juyongguan when I was young, and then stayed in Zhejiang for a few years, and then went there again
Shandong presides over the provincial examination and has traveled from north to south, so I can tell you about the situation in this big day!"
Xu Xun, who had been paying attention secretly, saw that the two sides were talking happily, so he stepped forward and happened to hear Wang Shouren's last words. Seeing that Zhu Houzhao's eyes were bright, he smiled and added a few words to the prince's scale.
The last base code.
"The young Marquis probably doesn't know that the prince is a versatile man in both civil and military affairs. Even in horseback riding and archery, he is definitely not as good as those generals who have fought in hundreds of battles!"
