Concubine's Handbook of Good Life in Ancient Times

Chapter 266

Thinking of the eldest princess who just got married last year, the second princess who is preparing to marry, and the eldest prince who is about to get married, their mothers are not of high background.Thinking of this, the fourth prince lamented that he really cast a good baby.

The second prince who didn't have a good pregnancy is not living a good life now.Although no palace people bullied him, no one flattered him either.Everything belongs to the prince, nothing more.The second prince even had to count and count rewards, and he was so tight that he didn't even have the money to add something to himself.

In the past, Qin Shurong and the others subsidized him, but now there is no subsidy at all, and the second prince felt embarrassed for a while.Of course he doesn't regret what he did to the imperial concubine, he just regrets why he was so anxious at that time, it should be a few years later.

It's just that when he heard that the imperial concubine was pregnant, he couldn't help but act, for fear that the imperial concubine would give birth to a prince and become his opponent.He was too impatient, which caused everyone to be wary of him, so the second prince is very tolerant now.Even the prince who deliberately found trouble also pretended not to care, giving way to his younger brother.

It's a pity that all he should know about his true face is known, and even his companions are far away from him, usually with the prince's companions.During the year when the second prince was away, they established a deep friendship.

The Taifu looked at the second prince who was isolated, he really couldn't blame the prince and the others, it was the second prince who went too far.What happened back then can only be concealed for a while, not forever.In private, many people have found out the reason why the second prince was confined, and the Taifu is one of the people who knew about it.

So regarding the second prince's isolation, he chose not to ask or hear about it. He was just out of the responsibility of being a teacher, and sometimes he reminded him in words, but judging by the second prince's attitude, it seemed that he didn't listen.

But the second prince is so forbearing now, it's a misfortune rather than a blessing!

The prince and the others ignored the second prince sitting aside to eat alone, talking and laughing, and discussing what the Taifu taught in class, forming a clear distinction with the second prince.

"Prince, what if the second prince is not fooled?"

Xie Meng whispered in the prince's ear.

"Don't be afraid, I didn't intend to fool him, I just didn't want him to have a good time."

How could the prince not be angry, the second prince wanted to kill his own mother, but he was already showing mercy to find fault.It was precisely because they understood this that the emperor and Taifu ignored the prince's actions.

"Well, you are the boss, you have the final say."

Xie Meng has always disliked the second prince, and felt that he was a little scary and hypocritical.It may be the intuition of the single cell. Although the second prince has contacted him in private and treated him very politely, Xie Meng just doesn't like him.

"Come on, it's time for class."

The prince clapped his hands, wiped his hands with the hot towel handed by the waiter, and stood up.

"Yes."

A group of people followed the prince. The eldest prince seldom comes to the study now. Usually, the Taifu assigns homework directly. He takes it back to do it, and then returns it to the Taifu. After the Taifu corrects it, he will wait for the eldest prince to come next time. After handing in the homework, he explained to him some of the things that the eldest prince hadn't figured out yet.

"Big brother."

The prince bumped into the eldest prince who had finished his homework.

"See First Prince."

All the companions read and saluted, the prince waved his hand, and they stepped aside and stood far away.

"Third brother, are you going to martial arts class?"

The eldest prince was a little envious. In martial arts classes, he could only stand by on a horse and watch his younger brothers practice martial arts. He couldn't learn archery because of his lack of arm strength, and he couldn't even compare with his companions.But because he was about to get married, several of his companions were sent home.

They have been with the First Prince for a few years, and under the teaching of the Taifu, they have greatly improved their knowledge. They are waiting for the imperial examination and plan to give it a try. Even if they fail, they still have experience.

"Yes, brother, is he going back to the prince's office again?"

Looking at the homework held in the hands of the waiter behind the eldest prince, the prince once again deepened his understanding of the eldest prince's eagerness to learn.Taifu just arranged it yesterday, right?
"Brother, don't stay up all night anymore, Empress Defei will be worried."

The prince reminded the eldest prince that although homework is important, the body is more important.

"I know, it's just that there is one thing I don't understand. I just came to ask the Taifu, and I didn't stay up late."

The eldest prince can still distinguish the importance, his homework is not heavy, it is already the easiest compared to the prince.The prince is not only good in literature, but also the strongest in martial arts.Now the Yang family's marksmanship is powerful, except for the fact that he is small and not strong enough, the proficiency is soaring, even the emperor praised the prince for his talent.

In horse riding and archery, although the prince is not the best, he can still be ranked among the top three.Riding on his exclusive pony, hitting the heart with one arrow after another, Marquis Yongning stroked his beard and nodded secretly.

After the prince finished learning the Yang family's marksmanship, he taught the prince the Fang family's marksmanship again. He didn't ask the prince to practice the best, but only hoped that he could learn something from it. This is the best result.

The emperor did not raise any objections to Yongninghou's approach.Anyway, the Marquis of Yongning wants to teach, so the prince should learn it.It wasn't the prince who suffered the loss, and Marquis Yongning's martial arts were all obtained by fighting on the battlefield. For the prince, learning from him would also benefit a lot.

So after practicing the arrow, the prince practiced the horse stance for half an hour, and then practiced the Fang family's marksmanship with the Marquis of Yongning.Marquis Yongning is extremely strict on this, and if the prince makes a mistake, he will be whipped by the horse in his hand.The prince is treated like this, how dare others be lazy?
They practiced one by one seriously, never been so serious in Taifu's class.

The Taifu didn't dare to beat the prince because the prince is a king and he is a minister.And the Marquis of Yongning dared to fight because he was the prince's grandfather.Now that the prince suffers a little bit, it means that he will be more safe in the face of danger in the future.

Parents and mothers acquiesce, and others can't say anything.The queen mother objected at first, but after listening to the emperor's words, she could only send some ointment to the East Palace, and then kept silent.Not to mention the queen, she is not a real mother, so she can only care about it silently, staring at the food in the East Palace, so that people can make up for the prince.

The prince was also beaten today, and fortunately there was a whip mark on his arm, and the mark would remain for a few days after the medicine was applied.

"Master's hands are too heavy." Mei Qiu rubbed the medicine for the prince, somewhat blaming Marquis Yongning.

"Aunt Qiu, don't blame my grandfather, he is also doing it for my own good."

The prince changed into clean clothes and sat back on the couch.

"But this is too..." The prince is only so old, how can the master be willing to hurt the prince.

"Jade can't be cut, it can't be used. If I want to become a man of indomitable spirit, I have to suffer now. I am still protecting my mother and younger brother, how can I slack off."
