After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

The prince took the medicine bowl and poured it down with his head raised.Tu Xun hurried over with the candied fruit, but was pushed away by the crown prince shaking his head.

——This was something he had to take every time he used to drink medicine, but he didn't know when he didn't use it anymore.

Because, he is no longer able to taste the slightest bit of suffering.

Holding the empty medicine bowl in his hand, Tu Xun hesitated to go out, raised his head from time to time, and glanced cautiously at the prince.That look was like a rabbit peeping at a tiger.

Seeing this, the crown prince couldn't help frowning, and even made Tu Ting tremble with fright, and buried his head deeply.

The prince secretly sighed, and said: "You will move here tomorrow and live with Gu. When you return to the capital, you will move to the side hall of Xiefang Palace."

"Yes." Tu Ting replied excitedly.He was a little happy, but also a little unbelievable, and at the same time he was uneasy.

Xiefang Hall is the main hall of Duanben Palace and the residence of the prince.The front hall is the place where the prince handles government affairs and meets foreign ministers. It is the political center of Duanben Palace.

Tu Xun is only eight years old this year. Although he has studied with his master for several years, he is not yet old enough to listen to politics.Therefore, he has been living with his mother.

For his father, he was deeply influenced by his mother, and he was in awe of him, and he didn't dare to get close to him on weekdays.And the prince himself was spoiled since he was a child, so he is not made to be a loving father.

Therefore, the relationship between father and son has always been quite satisfactory, and there is no time when they are particularly close.

However, which child does not want to be valued by his father?Especially when there are more than one brother and not the same mother.

What's more, his father was not an ordinary person, he was the prince of a country and the courtiers praised him.

Tu Xing is no exception.

No matter how many times his mother told him not to be casual or overstepped in front of his father, he still wanted to get his father's attention, to get closer to his father, to... want his father to praise him.

The prince recalled his psychology when he was so old, showed a gentle smile to his son, touched his head, and praised: "Good boy."

Sure enough, with just this simple sentence, Tu Ding's face flushed red with excitement.

The crown prince took the medicine bowl in his hand, handed it to Gong'e who was standing beside him, motioned her to take it out, and asked Tu Xun gently: "What did the master teach today?"

Seeing that his father was about to test himself, Tu Ting suddenly became nervous.But I still tried my best to answer well and get my father's appreciation.

"Today, the master told the history, and it was about the story of Emperor Taizong and Xuanzong of the Qing Dynasty." Tu Zong's voice was trembling slightly, but it was very loud, and accompanied by his flushed cheeks, people couldn't help it Want to get a grip.

The prince thought too, so he pinched it.

As for his own son, he was justified.

Tu Ting was taken aback, his cheeks were as hot as fire, but he couldn't help showing a shy smile.

This was the first time someone had pinched his face, and it felt strange and strange.There is still a warm current in my heart, trickling like a stream, soaking into my heart and lungs.

——Sure enough, father doesn't like what mother said, he only likes well-behaved children.Father himself doesn't seem to be very disciplined.

He became puzzled: Then why did the mother say that?Is it because she doesn't know her father at all?

Seeing him distracted, the prince patted the back of his head lightly, "What are you thinking?"

"Ah?" Tu Ting came back to his senses, realizing that he had lost his mind in front of his father, his little face turned pale with fright, "Father, I... son..."

He didn't know how to justify, so he buried his head deeply in his arms in annoyance.

——The influence of his mother on him day after day is not so easy to eliminate.He felt that he must have let his father down.

This timid, like walking on thin ice, made the prince frown uncontrollably. He was a little disappointed with this son, and felt that he was not arrogant at all.

But thinking about the character of the Crown Princess, the Crown Prince suppressed the irritability, and said softly: "You don't have to be so nervous, you and I are father and son, so there is no need to follow the rules everywhere."

"Really?" Tu Xing raised his head cautiously.

"En." The prince nodded affirmatively, with an encouraging smile on his face.But he was thinking in his heart: I am afraid that in the future the Crown Princess will not be able to see her more often.What a good child, what has she taught her to be like?

At this time, the prince forgot: these years, he was busy studying government affairs first, and then he was busy consolidating his position.In the education of his son, his father has always been absent.

Since he left his son to his wife, when the princess taught her son, she naturally obeyed her own heart and interests, and let her son get closer to his mother and the mother clan.

"Great!" Tu Ting still had shyness on his face, but more excitement.

He couldn't help thinking: what would happen if he lived with his father?Will the father be stricter than the mother?I will definitely let my father down!

However, the little grandson of Tu Zun soon discovered that compared to his mother's strictness, his father was simply a loving father.In addition to his father's strict requirements for his homework, he played spinning tops and darts with the little eunuch on weekdays. Instead of scolding him, his father would take him to play.

My father's spinning top is very good. Not only does it spin fast and steadily, but it can also make the top fly, fly a certain distance, and land on the ground to continue spinning.

Moreover, my father's knowledge is also very good.Tu Ting felt that listening to his father's lectures was much more clear than listening to his master's lectures.

Regarding this, the prince smiled disapprovingly, and said to him: "It's not because your master's knowledge is not as good as Gu, but because they are courtiers after all, and there are many things that they dare not say clearly."

After living with the crown prince for two months, Tu Ding has grown more courageous.At this time, he dared to ask: "Masters dare not speak, are they afraid that the emperor's grandfather will punish them?"

The book rolled into a tube in the crown prince's hand knocked lightly on his head, and the crown prince laughed and scolded: "You boy, you really dare to pour out whatever you say."

"Hey." Tu Ding wiped the place where he was beaten and smirked.

At the beginning, he would always turn pale with fright at the prince's feigned anger.But now he already knew that his father was not really angry, but was teasing him.

After all, he is still young, and the teachings given by the princess have not overwhelmed the boy's natural admiration for his father.

"Father, masters, are you afraid of the emperor's grandfather?"

No student is in awe of the teacher in his heart, and many children are not afraid of their parents, but they listen to the teacher very much.

But the more awed you are, the more rebellious you will be in your heart.If there is a chance to know the embarrassing things about some teachers, it seems that the distance between them and the teacher can be shortened.There will also be a subtle psychology of "the teacher is not omnipotent".

Today, Tu Zong is this kind of psychology.

The prince also came from his age, how could he not understand?

He gave his son a funny look, and said lightly: "You are right, they are indeed afraid of your grandfather."

"But isn't the imperial grandfather a benevolent monarch?" Tu Ting was full of doubts, "The masters themselves said that the imperial grandfather is a benevolent monarch that is rare in a hundred years. Why do they think that the imperial grandfather will block their way of speaking?"

He tilted his head and looked at the prince, trying to explain this phenomenon with the knowledge he had learned, "Is this just to save the gentleman's belly with a careful heart?"

"No," said the prince, "they are just trying to protect themselves."

"Ah?" At his age, he obviously couldn't understand.

The prince sighed, and said earnestly: "Many times, what the eyes see is not necessarily true, let alone what the ears hear?"

Tu Xun thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes widened, "Father means that although everyone says that the emperor's grandfather is a benevolent emperor, is he not?"

——It is said that many mouths make gold, but Tu Ming suddenly learned that what many mouths say may not be real gold.This has a great impact on his three views.

But the prince shook his head and said, "Your imperial grandfather is indeed a benevolent king."

"That……"

The prince said: "It's good that your imperial grandfather is a benevolent monarch, but your masters are not villains."

After listening to the prince's explanation, Tu Xun felt that he was even more confused.

"Father, do you mean that black and white can coexist?" He was a little puzzled, but also a little clear.

"It's pretty good that you can think of these things." The prince nodded appreciatively, and further analyzed with his son, "There are very few people and things in this world that are absolutely black and white, and most of them are gray.

The difference is that some people can still find their own direction in this gray area, while others use this as an excuse to simply let themselves sink.

It is also because of this that those who can stick to their hearts will be even more commendable. "

Tu Ting thought for a long time, and a sudden expression appeared on his face: "My son understands."

The prince glanced at him with a smile and asked, "Then tell me, what are your masters afraid of?"

Tu Xun: "Uh..."

He blushed again from embarrassment.

——He couldn't answer this question.

The son was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in, but the father laughed happily.

"Father!" Tu Ding became angry from embarrassment.

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore." The prince put away his bad taste.After all, the son's face still has to be scrupled.

Tu Xun was embarrassed for a while, and quickly adjusted his emotions, and continued to ask, "Father, what are you afraid of, masters?"

Seeing that he could act as if nothing had happened so quickly, the prince nodded secretly, thinking that this son is still very teachable.

The so-called politics, many times, the comparison is who is more shameless than the other.Like today's saints who are shameless and fearless, it is easy for courtiers to grasp their weaknesses and use the situation to guide them to achieve their goals.

The prince said seriously: "It's good that your imperial grandfather is kind, but the superiors always have such and such taboos. Therefore, there are some things that the courtiers can't say."
