Fast-passing host super cold

Chapter 265 Emperor Cultivation Manual (8)

The little emperor's identity is sensitive, and sending people in is undoubtedly pushing his own descendants into the center of the power struggle.

And if the child is smarter, it's okay, but if the child is stupid and really develops feelings for the little emperor, then his family will inevitably be targeted by both the prime minister's faction and the regent's faction.

Therefore, there were ministers of similar age in the family in the court, and they all found excuses to shirk the matter.

But the little emperor couldn't be without a companion all the time, so someone below proposed a way to let Qing Zhou act as a companion.

Generally speaking, girls are not allowed to study in special private schools in the palace, let alone study with the emperor, but under the current circumstances, no one raised any objections.

Even the issue of gender has been covered up in the name of husband and wife.

So Qingzhou became the little emperor's exclusive companion. Not only did he study the Four Books and Five Classics together, but he even took lessons such as riding and archery together.

Qing Zhou didn't want to show anything, and he didn't want to deal with those old foxes in this kind of thing. In class, he was basically distracted and fell asleep, and he almost couldn't finish the things he was assigned to write after class.

At first, the prime minister paid a lot of attention to her, but later he found that she seemed to be really not good enough, so he gradually relaxed his vigilance.

Qing Zhou lowered his head and looked at the messy rice paper with a large piece of ink on it, and put the pen aside expressionlessly: "It's nothing."

Shang Yufan opened his mouth, looked at hers with dark eyes, and then at his own: "Sister Empress, how about I write for you?"

"Need not."

No matter how frantic Qing Zhou was, he would never let a five-year-old child write for him, so he calmly changed the topic.

"The regent will come to ride and shoot in a while, so he just went to change his clothes."

Hearing the word riding and shooting, Shang Yu Fan's face collapsed.

The little emperor's riding and shooting and homework are not particularly good, especially riding and shooting is even worse.Of course, that's absolutely fine for a five-year-old, but he doesn't know it himself.

He is a bit short in stature and weak in strength, so it is difficult for him to draw the big bow in riding and archery lessons.

Shang Jin is a smart person, she never said much, neither encouraged nor scolded, but every time she looked at the little emperor's eyes, she was faintly disappointed.

Shang Yufan is almost six years old, and he is also sensible.

Occasionally, I heard some of the servants below say something like "The emperor can't succeed in writing, how can he lead the Western merchants?" Combined with Shang Jin's eyes, without a few words, the little emperor's confidence can collapse and he doubts himself.

Qing Zhou saw it and didn't stop her, because she somehow felt that this kid had his own ideas.
-
Although the little emperor was very reluctant, he could not refuse.

The two changed into their riding clothes and went to the shooting range together.

What is rare is that there are other people at the shooting range this time.

The riding and archery and private schools in the palace are not only available to the children of the royal family. Those with a little power will send their legitimate sons to study.

Because the other party's class time was staggered with theirs, Qing Zhou and Shang Yu Fan had never met these children in the palace.

Seeing so many people of the same age for the first time, the little emperor was obviously a little excited.

But the usual education made him restrain this excitement, and walked towards the children with a sullen face.

The little eunuch next to him shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, the queen is here!"

Following his sound, the children who were chatting and having fun at the riding and shooting range were all stunned. The older ones were the first to react and immediately knelt down to salute.

"I have met Your Majesty, Empress Empress."

An indistinct annoyance flashed across the eyes of the little emperor, and under the curious and astonished eyes of a group of peers, he said childishly but without any stage fright: "Let's get down."

The voice of the conversation on the riding range was a bit quieter, but with Qing Zhou's hearing, he could easily hear what they were talking about.

The reason why they didn't go home at the end of the day was that someone met here for a riding and archery competition.

One of them is the legitimate son of the Minister of the Household Department, surnamed Li, and the other is Shang Jin's eldest son, Shang Zhiyuan, who just turned ten years old this year.

Although Qingzhou had never met Shang Zhiyuan in person, when he thought of the position of Shangshu Hubu in the court, he immediately understood that this competition might actually be a faction dispute, and that Shang Zhiyuan was probably nothing mindless people.

It was the first time for the little emperor to see such a scene, and he dragged Qingzhou all the way to the front seat to sit down.

In the arena, a boy in a black riding suit stood opposite a young man in a blue riding suit on horseback.

Looking at his facial features, Qing Zhou could tell that the one in the black riding suit was Shang Jin's eldest son, Shang Zhiyuan.

His appearance is [-]% similar to Shang Zhiyuan's, and his raised eyebrows look a bit rebellious.

Seeing Qing Zhou and Shang Yu Fan, the two wanted to get off their horses to salute, but they were stopped by the little emperor's gesture. Qing Zhou saw Shang Zhiyuan looking at the little emperor with a flash of disdain, and narrowed his eyes slightly. Eye.

With the presence of the emperor, the back of the young man surnamed Li tightened even more. He held the rein in his hand and stared at Shang Zhiyuan opposite him with burning eyes.

Shang Zhiyuan was also inspired to fight, and the war between the two was imminent.

Both of them are relatively young, and compared with riding and shooting, there is no superfluous style. Whoever knocks the other off the horse first will be considered the winner.

It can be seen that both of them are good players in this field, every move is extremely compelling, and several moves are very thrilling.

He even vaguely has his own moves and habits.

In the end, Young Master Li still lost to Shang Zhiyuan, the shirt on his arm was scratched a lot, he dismounted from his horse with a frown, clasped his fists and said, "Mr.

Mr. Li's loss was not ugly, and he was very angry when he admitted defeat. Everyone applauded him.

Shang Zhiyuan raised his chin and nodded arrogantly, scanned the field, but his eyes stopped on Shang Yufan.

"Your Majesty, what do you think of my performance just now?"

Qing Zhou frowned slightly. Asking such words with such an attitude at this time must be provocative.

Shang Yufan blinked, and replied in a childish voice, "Not bad."

The little emperor did not accept his provocation at all.

Shang Zhiyuan's expression remained unchanged: "Then, will Your Majesty want to have a fight with you?"

There was a sudden silence in the audience.

Before the little emperor could speak, Qing Zhou explained in a flat tone: "Your Majesty has only learned riding and archery for four or five months. Mr. Shang may be suspected of bullying the younger."

"Oh?" Shang Zhiyuan laughed, extremely arrogant, "Then His Majesty admits that he is not as good as me?"

In this case, if the imperial power was at its peak, the crime of disrespecting the emperor and beheading would not be out of the ordinary.

But at this time, none of the crowd dared to speak up for Shang Yufan.

Everyone knows how to choose between the puppet emperor who wants nothing, and the eldest son of the regent king.

The little emperor stood up, his back looked a bit decisive.

"I compare with you."
