Chapter 190 Interest Cultivation (Part [-])
In the side hall of the main courtyard of Chengqian Palace, there is a special scene today. The new crown prince’s accompanying student and fake student’s bachelor, Mr. Gao Wushi, is instructing several court ladies to clean some rags, tablecloths, curtains, chair cushions and other stolen goods.

Cleaning utensils is very simple, except for a few basins and warm water, there are only a few bars of soap.

Concubine Li Gui, who came from an ordinary farming family, got up with great interest and stood aside to watch the cleaning process.His Royal Highness Zhu Yijun was on the other side studying the soap bubbles Gao Yushi taught him to play.

Zhu Yijun held a strange wooden spoonless spoon in his hand—it was actually a simplified version of the kind of bubble wand with circles that children in later generations used to play with soapy water...

"Huh!" Zhu Yijun blew heavily, and sure enough...not a single bubble came out, and his face suddenly collapsed, and he said angrily, "Why can't I blow it out?"

Gao Wushi smiled and stretched out his hand, and said, "His Royal Highness, come, I will demonstrate again."

Zhu Yijun's attitude towards him was quite good, and he obediently handed over the wooden simple bubble stick, but muttered: "It's weird, why can you blow it out, but I can't?"

Out of the corner of Gao Yushi's eyes, he noticed that Concubine Li Gui was also looking at him, and immediately said: "Your Highness, the truth of the world is that all paths lead to the same goal. You must have heard a saying called 'haste makes waste', right? On the bubble, it's the same."

Zhu Yijun was taken aback: "Is there any reason to blow bubbles?"

Gao Yushi looked like a pedant, and said: "Everything in the world has a 'reason'. There is a great virtue in the world, which is the summary of its body and the root of vitality. It is honest and grand, and it is born and changed. That’s why it’s possible to cultivate and cultivate in parallel.”

Zhu Yijun stared at him blankly: "Uh...oh?"

Gao Yushi ignored him, and continued to brag: "There is only one qi in the world, and it is endless. Qianyuan, Taiji, and Taihe are all aliases for qi. Since it is divided into yin and yang, it is ever-changing and well-organized. In detail, the soldiers must not be chaotic, so it is called reason, and there is no reason outside the air."

Not to mention Zhu Yijun's dumbfounded look, even Concubine Li Gui, who was secretly observing the two of them not far away, was dumbfounded, and thought to herself: This little guy seems to be really knowledgeable, and I have read the book seriously in the past few years But he didn't understand it at all... But judging by his appearance, it should make sense.

It's hard to say whether he has a reason, but your situation is obvious: you don't know what's going on.

Of course, Gao Yushi’s words must be reasonable, but he didn’t study the truth in depth at all—these are all the theoretical viewpoints of the Qizong of Qizong, and he just read some of them from Gao Gong’s writings. Now that there is no learned master present, just use it to show off.As for the intention... It's really to make the mother and son unaware.

Zhu Yijun scratched his head a little: "Does what you said...does it have anything to do with blowing bubbles?"

Gao Wushi sighed, and explained: "What I mean is... Well, to put it simply, I just want to tell His Highness the Crown Prince how this bubble came about."

"Oh!" Zhu Yijun's eyes lit up: "Then try playing it first, and then explain it to me."

Concubine Li Gui seemed to understand Gao Pragmatic's intentions a little bit, and began to watch him demonstrate with a pair of interested eyes.

Gao Wushi soaked the "bubble stick" into the bamboo tube filled with soapy water, took it out and said, "Actually, not only can you blow it, but you can also do it like this..." As he spoke, he gently blew it with the ring facing the wind. With a wave of his hand, a series of bubbles suddenly appeared in several circles.

"Ah!" Zhu Yijun was overjoyed, and clapped his hands vigorously and said, "Well, well, blow... No, it's a good game!" He couldn't help reaching out to grab a few handfuls, and immediately beat the bubbles back to their original shape, turning them into water.

He touched it with his hand and said, "It seems a little sticky." But he immediately let go of the question, and asked again: "Then how should I blow it?"

Gao Wushi smiled, dipped the bubble stick into the bamboo tube of soapy water again, took it out and said, "Blow gently, because the water can form blisters only because of the stickiness of the soap, but the stickiness is after all Limited, if you use too much force, it will not be able to shape." Then, put the bubble wand by the mouth, blow air gently in the mouth, and then gently pull the bubble wand.

Seeing another series of bubbles blowing out, Zhu Yijun laughed heartily, turned his head happily, and smiled at Concubine Li Gui: "Mother and Concubine, look at it, Gao Shidu blows it really well!"

Although Concubine Li Gui was strict, she was still a mother after all, she was quite happy to see her son so happy, she said in a rare doting tone: "Yes, Gao Shi is really good at reading."

But he immediately changed the subject and said, "But don't just be happy, Gao Shi read the truth just said, you haven't asked for advice yet."

Zhu Yijun hurriedly said: "What the concubine mother said is true." Then he turned to ask Gao Wushi: "Master Gao, how did the bubbles come about? You just said that the water can form blisters because of the stickiness of soap. But...how did the stickiness come from?"

Gao Wushi smiled, and said: "This question is beyond the outline... No, Wei Chen is saying that this question will not be clear for a while, and we have to start with more basic things."

"Basic ones?" Zhu Yijun was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't take offense. He just asked, "What are the basics?"

Gao Wushi said: "Well... This is like, if we want to read books, we must first be able to read. The soap bubbles are also ordinary. If we want to know why the bubbles are sticky, first of all, should we know why the water is so sticky? It becomes a round bubble, why isn't it square?"

After hearing this, Zhu Yijun was also a little puzzled: "That's right, why are they all round?"

Gao Wushi smiled and said: "His Royal Highness, everything has a reason. If you want to understand these problems, you need to know a lot of knowledge, and now the prince is going to study in the cabinet, just to lay the foundation needed for future knowledge." Then he said He said: "In the future, when His Highness is accomplished in knowledge, from governing the world to studying this mere blister, everything will be as easy as the palm of our hand."

"Oh, I understand." Zhu Yijun nodded vigorously: "My concubine taught me that everything should start with small things. Although it is not exactly the same as what you said, the truth is similar. In short, I have to study hard to know these things. Makes sense, doesn't it?"

"Your Highness sees thousands of miles away." Gao Wushi nodded, "Exactly."

Concubine Li Gui looked quite satisfied, and said in her heart: Originally, this little guy made such a thing, I was worried that he would teach the prince badly, so that he only knew how to play, but I didn't expect him to be able to divert the prince's mind When it comes to understanding the truth, I have to say, this is a way.In the future, the prince's studies will be supervised by gentlemen, and there will be a senior servant to guide him, isn't it enough to make people feel at ease?

　I have a bit of a fever due to a cold...but Chapter 12 will still come out before 2 o'clock.
