Mixed with salted fish in Hongwudang

Chapter 57 Is this going to change the sky?

In fact, even if Lao Zhu didn't say anything, Qi Tai decided to give Zhu Yunxi more homework.For a gentleman like him, it is a shame that the homework assigned is too easy for the students to complete.

"The minister obeys the order!"

"Tomorrow, I will arrange for His Royal Highness the Three Emperors and Grandsons to recite for Zhenghe Baqi. The total of the two articles is 260 characters..."

When Qi Tai said this, a wry smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"Your Majesty, although I have doubled my homework, I still can't guarantee that I can keep His Highness the Third Emperor for too long."

When Lao Zhu heard this, he couldn't help showing surprise.

"Oh, what do you mean by that?"

"Your Majesty, I found that His Royal Highness the Third Emperor was too cunning. He memorized the article early in the morning, but he refused to admit it when he asked about it. It wasn't until he saw that he could leave school early after memorizing the homework in advance. Then the Third Emperor was exposed... ..."

"what?"

Lao Zhu was taken aback when he heard this, and then burst out laughing.

"It's something that grandson can do, hahaha..."

After Lao Zhu laughed, he said earnestly.

"Qi Tai, you have to take care of us in the future, our grandson is smart but he is too lazy..."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will teach you strictly, and I will never favor one person over another!"

Upon hearing this, Lao Zhu patted Qi Tai's arm and laughed.

"We love dealing with smart people!"

"Transparent!"

"Your Majesty's praise... By the way, Your Majesty, it's time to check your homework in the afternoon. If you have time, you might as well stay and watch, so that you can understand the progress of your heirs' homework."

Originally, seeing that Zhu Yunxi was not there, Lao Zhu wanted to go back to the palace to take a rest after explaining a few words to Qi Tai.But after hearing Qi Tai's words, Lao Zhu didn't care about their homework for a few days, and immediately agreed to Qi Tai's suggestion.

"In that case, let's stay and take a look!"

Just like the children of ordinary people, even the royal family and nobles are afraid of their parents checking their homework.

Knowing that the father was going to personally check the homework, all the princes in the main hall wailed in their hearts.

Only the two brothers Zhu Yunqi and Zhu Yunxuan were secretly happy, and even a little eager to try.

The two of them are taught by Mrs. Lu every day, and their homework is much better than that of ordinary princes, so they very much hope to show their faces in front of the emperor's grandfather.

After Lao Zhu entered the Dahon Hall, the discipline of the entire Dahon Hall became better than ever.

Every prince and grandson sat upright and stood up respectfully to say hello to the emperor.

Old Zhu waved to them, then sat down on Qi Tai's seat, signaling Qi Tai to start.

In order to get off to a good start, Qi Tai immediately named the palace as the inscription writer.

Zhu Yunqi lived up to expectations and memorized the homework by heart.

It's just that Lao Zhu was not very satisfied after hearing it, because compared with Zhu Yunxi's homework, Zhu Yunqi's homework is too little, only a mere one hundred words.

"Is that all?"

As soon as Qi Tai heard this, he knew that His Majesty thought he had given Zhu Yunqi too little homework.

But Zhu Yunxie is different from Zhu Yunxie. Zhu Yunxie's talent of never forgetting is a genius outside the palace, which is one in a million.

Although Zhu Yunqi is not bad, but compared with other princes and grandchildren, he is more self-disciplined and more studious. There is not much difference in his intelligence, and he can be regarded as an average person at best.

This is also one of the reasons why North Korean and Chinese officials collectively admire Zhu Yunqi.

For the officials of the Ming Dynasty, they had served enough of Lao Zhu, a difficult master, and they wished that the new emperor would be a little more stupid and listen to their mercy.

"Your Majesty, what His Highness Zhu Yunqi has learned is different from other heirs of the emperor. The university he is studying now should not have too much homework every day. If there is too much homework, it will be easy to chew too much."

Old Zhu let out a soft "Oh" when he heard the words, and the displeasure on his face receded a little. Just when he was about to open his mouth to reward Zhu Yunqi with something, he suddenly heard Zhu Yunqi say.

"Grandfather, although Mr. Qi didn't assign more homework to his grandson, his grandson will study by himself every day when he returns to the palace, and he has already finished the next few chapters in advance!"

As soon as Zhu Yunwen finished speaking, Zhu Zhi who was sitting below curled his lips in disdain.

He finally understood what Zhu Yunxi meant when he said that the court was a poet. Isn't this grandson too good at embarrassment?
Lao Zhu was rather interested, and immediately urged.

"Recite it for us!"

When Zhu Yunwen heard the words, he immediately started to recite, and kept reciting the contents of the next few chapters.

Lao Zhu is also very familiar with the Four Books, but he is not as familiar as Qi Tai and the others.

Therefore, after Zhu Yunwen finished reciting, Lao Zhu immediately looked at Qi Tai who was standing aside.

"How does Mr. Qi feel?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, what His Highness Yun Wen recited is verbatim."

Seeing what Qi Tai said, Lao Zhu immediately had a smile on his face.

"Not bad!"

"It's very rare to be able to take the initiative to learn by yourself and learn so well!"

"Come here, give me a box of Xiangmo ink and a knife of Koryo paper!"

When Zhu Yunwen heard this, his heart immediately sank, and there was no trace of joy on his face.

Because in the past, the grandpa of the emperor would call him the eldest grandson of this kind of formal reward.

Calling the emperor's second-grandson on purpose now is definitely not a mistake made by the emperor's grandfather, it must be intentional.

But why did Grandpa Huang do this? Could it be that he knew what happened during lunch yesterday?

correct!

The guy Erhu was also there at the time, it must have been the ear-to-heart report that caused Grandpa Huang to misunderstand himself!

When Qi Tai heard the words of "the emperor's second grandson", he felt very uncomfortable.

After all, he has been teaching the princes and grandsons for a long time, and he also has certain feelings for Zhu Yunqi.

Seeing that the child had changed from the much-anticipated eldest grandson of the emperor to an ordinary second grandson of the emperor, he also felt very sorry for the child.

The princes sitting below were also shocked when they heard this.

They had heard the rumors in the morning, saying that the father ordered people to pay homage to his late nephew Zhu Xiongying, and also sent people to repair his mausoleum.

Now hearing his father address Zhu Yunqi like this, every prince can't help but wonder, this is going to change the sky!
Qi Tai watched Zhu Yunwen in a daze, and hurriedly reminded him.

"His Royal Highness, why don't you hurry up and thank His Majesty for your kindness?"

When Zhu Yunwen heard this, he just woke up like a dream, and hurriedly squeezed a smile on his face, and thanked the emperor's grandfather for the reward with a smile.

Old Zhu pretended not to see his reluctance at all, just smiled and encouraged him, then turned to look at Qi Tai.

"Mr. Qi, since this kid Yun Wen is so smart, he might as well do some homework tomorrow."

"This……"

Hearing this, Qi Tai looked at Zhu Yunqi hesitantly, fearing that Zhu Yunqi would be overwhelmed, but unexpectedly Zhu Yunqi didn't look at him at all, but looked at Lao Zhu with burning eyes.

"Grandpa Huang, what the third brother can do, so can the grandson!"

After Zhu Yunwen finished speaking, he thought secretly in his heart.

Isn't it just [-]-word articles every day, and I lost two hours of sleep at night, so I can memorize it no matter what!
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Qi Tai poured cold water on him.

"His Royal Highness, His Majesty, just outside the door, has adjusted the homework of His Royal Highness to [-] words per day, are you sure you want to be like him?"

When Zhu Yunwen heard this, he was so angry that he almost slapped himself.

If he had to stay up late at night for an article of five hundred words a day, he could still chase it, but for an article of one thousand and two words, what would he use to chase it, would he chase it with his life?
Seeing that Zhu Yunqi was so studious, Lao Zhu immediately gave him high praise.

"Good job!"

"As expected of our favorite grandson!"

When Zhu Yunwen heard the words of the emperor's grandfather, he couldn't say anything about the refusal, so he could only bite the bullet and agree.

"Grandfather, please rest assured, my grandson will definitely... definitely work hard!"

Zhu Yunwen returned to his seat in a daze, thinking about how to stay up late at night to memorize, but the others took turns to recite their homework.

After listening to Lao Zhu for a few times, he didn't want to listen anymore. Except for Zhu Yunqi and Zhu Yunxuan brothers who recited well, the homework of the other princes was really horrible.

After rewarding each of them with [-] big boards, Lao Zhu left the main hall with a grunt.

"Erhu, how is the investigation of our eldest grandson's poisoning going?"

Although no evidence was found the day before yesterday, Lao Zhu is not the kind of person who is willing to let it go.

Since the prince's mansion is still holding funerals, he changed the open inspection to an unannounced visit, trying not to disturb the quietness of the emperor.

"Reporting to the emperor, Lu Fengyu, who was temporarily found in the imperial hospital, had private contact with the maidservant of the crown princess through the drug boy..."

"Now the humble job has sent people to watch, and if there is any situation, it will be played immediately!"

Lao Zhu nodded, indicating that he understood.

"By the way, send a few people out of the palace to keep an eye on it, and don't let that little Ni Sun get into trouble!"

"Also, when he comes back, bring him to see us!"

"promise!"
