Wangfu little dumb wife

Chapter 310 That Young Prince (3 more)
Inexplicably, he was chosen to be the companion of the eldest prince. When Su Yaoqi walked out of the Qianqing Palace, his mind was still blank. He turned to look at Empress Su and asked her, "Auntie, why did the eldest prince choose me?"

Empress Su smiled and explained to the boy, "Because you are good enough."

Is it good enough?
Just because his surname is Su?

Su Yaoqi didn't quite understand what was going on in the palace, but he still had a faint smell of intrigue.

Back at the Duke's Mansion, the father immediately took him over to ask, "Have you seen the Emperor?"

"seen."

"Where's the eldest prince?"

"See you too."

Seeing that his son was not in a good mood, Su Guogong frowned, "Are you being beaten by Shuang?"

Su Yaoqi thought for a while, then looked up at his father, "Didn't you always want me to get involved in family affairs?"

Grandpa Guo stared, "When did I let you get involved?"

Su Yaoqi muttered in a low voice, "You want me to accompany the eldest prince to read without meddling?"

"That's the eldest prince who knows people with his eyes. He carefully selected you from among the three hundred students in the Imperial College."

"He fell in love with the surname Su at a glance, isn't his eyes crippled?" Su Yaoqi retorted.

Grandpa Guo was so angry that his face changed, "What's wrong with the surnamed Su? Aren't you a descendant of the Su family? Have the guts to say so?"

Su Yaoqi straightened her chest and said with confidence, "I'm different from you!"

Grandpa Guo: "...Come here, bring the whip. ——Little bastard, don't run away if you have the guts, get back to me!"

Su Yaoqi, who had slipped away a long time ago, stood on the veranda and curled his lips, "Only a fool will go back and get beaten."

Qi to Qi, it is impossible for the Duke of the State to really do anything to this son who grew up on a simple diet.

After all, in the Su family, it is not easy to raise a child who is not contaminated by the world.

-

On the first day of entering the palace, Su Yaoqi made a special trip to the Imperial College early in the morning, but didn't go in, so he waited outside the gate.

Song Yuanbao saw him when he came and asked why he was standing still like a wooden stake.

Su Yaoqi said, "I won't study in the Imperial College anymore."

Song Yuanbao pretended not to know, "You want to drop out of school?"

"No, go to Shang's study." Su Yaoqi said, "Read with the eldest prince."

Song Yuanbao said "Oh", "That's pretty good."

The gentleman in Shangshu's room is a higher level than the official of the Imperial Academy, so there is no need to say much about the quality of teaching.

Being able to accompany the prince to read is probably a beautiful job that many students dream of.

"I invited you to the boat party that day, but you didn't go. You won't be angry with me, will you?"

Su Yaoqi looked at the little boy standing in front of him. He was obviously not as tall as him and younger than him, but many times when they stood together, he always felt that he was the child.

Song Yuanbao had an indifferent face, "I didn't go to success, I didn't go to success, and I didn't lose a piece of meat. Am I such a narrow-minded person?"

Hearing what he said, Su Yaoqi heaved a sigh of relief, "It's fine if you don't get angry."

He made a special trip to come early just to tell Song Hao that he was going to accompany the eldest prince to read to him. Su Yaoqi didn't stay long, and got into the carriage and headed directly towards the imperial city.

When I arrived at Shang's study, it happened that the teacher had already started class.

In such a large Shangshu room, only Zhao Xi, a prince, sat in it.

Su Yaoqi couldn't interrupt Mr.'s lecture, so he walked silently to the eldest prince and sat down.

Zhao Xi glanced at Su Yaoqi, with no expression on his face, he quickly withdrew his gaze and continued to focus on the book.

Until the end of get out of class at noon, the eldest prince didn't say a word to him, not even a whisper.

Su Yaoqi was introverted in his bones. Seeing the eldest prince ignoring him, he was at a loss for a while, thinking about how to open his mouth.

When the husband went out, Zhao Xi closed the book, turned slightly sideways, and looked at Su Yaoqi for the second time, this time he was no longer silent, "Every day, I start reading at Yin time, class at Mao time, get out of class at noon, and learning to ride and shoot in the afternoon. Don't make a mistake in another day." gone."

"Yin... Yinshi?" Su Yaoqi opened his mouth wide in surprise, "The chickens haven't woken up yet!"

Is this a companion reading?This is to treat people like a cow or a horse, right?
Obviously, the fourth young master of the Su family who grew up in a honeypot did not understand the hardships of being a prince.

The prince he considers is the kind of proud son who can make the ordinary people tremble with every response. He never thought that they would have to get up in the middle of the night and go to the Shang study room to read in the morning before dawn. Then I have classes until noon, and in the afternoon I will go to Shanglinyuan to learn riding and archery.

Throughout the year, except for the one-day holiday of major festivals, the rest of the time has to follow this model.

As for the benefits, in midsummer, because of the heat, I only have morning classes, and I can rest in the afternoon.

In the Guozijian, the early reading is entirely voluntary, and the official class time is right at the right time. A young master like Su Yaoqi has enough sleep time every day.

Zhao Xi began to come to Shangshufang when he was six years old, and it has been almost seven years since he was used to going to bed late and getting up early.

The uninformed people outside envy him that he lives in the royal family, but in fact, sleeping late is a luxury for him.

Every holiday, as long as he is not called out to participate in activities such as sacrifices, he would rather not go anywhere, and stay in his bedroom and sleep all day.

……

Seeing Su Yaoqi's reaction like this, Zhao Xi smiled and said nothing, stood up and walked out, returned to Yutang Palace and started to have lunch.

In the afternoon, I went to Shanglinyuan Racecourse, still accompanied by Su Yaoqi.

Zhao Xi led the mount with one hand and came over with a quiver on his back. When he was free, he held a heavy black gold bow with his other hand. Seeing Su Yaoqi standing still, he asked him, "Can't ride a horse?"

Su Yaoqi shook his head twice. He can ride a horse, but his riding skills are not very good.

"Can't shoot arrows?" Zhao Xi asked again.

Su Yaoqi nodded embarrassedly.

Their family is a scholarly family, except for the seventh uncle, few people touch weapons, bows and arrows.

Zhao Xi understood, "Since that's the case, don't get on the horse, and stay below to help me run errands and pick up prey."

"Okay." Su Yaoqi agreed quite readily.

After Zhao Xi finished speaking, he got on the horse with a beautiful and neat movement, and adjusted his sitting posture.

Su Yaoqi raised his head to look at him, and couldn't help asking, "The Wujin bow is so heavy, why doesn't Your Highness change to a lighter bow?"

Zhao Xi had a half-smile, "How do you train your arms if you don't sink?"

Su Yaoqi found himself speechless.

When he was distracted, Zhao Xi had galloped towards the woods.

Su Yaoqi trotted to keep up.

Following the sound of horseshoes, he picked up a lot of prey along the way, and then he found that the prey were all alive, and Zhao Xi hadn't shot them through the heart.

At first, Su Yaoqi thought that His Royal Highness's archery skills were not good, but gradually, he realized that was not the case.

Those prey were either nailed to a tree by an arrow, or scratched their skin and bled...

All in all, they all have one thing in common - they can't run away.

During the intermission, Su Yaoqi took the opportunity to ask Zhao Xi, "Why didn't His Highness shoot the prey?"

Zhao Xi asked without answering, "What do you think?"

Su Yaoqi said truthfully: "I feel that His Majesty is protecting these animals with good intentions."

Zhao Xi: "...it's half of the reason!"

"What's the other half?"

"The same arrow is shot, and the prey is also captured. Young master Su thinks, the prey is alive or dead, which kind of archery is better?"

Su Yaoqi understood instantly, and the shock in his heart was beyond words.

He was eighteen, and the young prince in front of him was 13.

With his amazing perseverance in reading and his riding and shooting skills, the other party completely overturned his understanding of the word "Prince".

It wasn't smooth sailing as he thought.

Not as arbitrary as he imagined.

The prince has more books to read than him, and the things to learn are more complicated.

Woke up earlier than him, went to bed later than him, and even practiced riding and shooting, he had to constantly challenge his limits.

At the age of 13, those immature shoulders have already shouldered far beyond what this age can bear.

Comparing with Zhao Xi, Su Yaoqi suddenly felt that he was useless when he was young and raised by pampering.

After Zhao Xi rested for a while, the master who taught riding and archery came. He watched the riding and archery just now from the observation platform, and felt that something was wrong, so he instructed Zhao Xi a few words.

Su Yaoqi sat on the lawn, turned his head, and saw Zhao Xi's profile.

Against the light, the young prince looked extremely serious when facing the guidance of his master, and his earnest attitude of studying made Su Yaoqi feel ashamed once again.

-

Su Yaoqi fell off his horse after studying with him for half a month.

This period of time was stimulated by Zhao Xi. That day he insisted on getting on the horse himself, but after the horse entered the forest, he couldn't control it. He struggled a few times, fell on his back, got a bleeding hole on his forehead, and dropped his arm fracture.

When the man was sent back to the Duke's mansion, Duke Su's eyes darkened and he almost fainted.
