See teacher...

A dark-skinned man in a purple robe, about forty years old, followed behind the eunuch with a serious face, and walked towards the Qihui Hall.

Behind him, a man in his thirties of about a year hurriedly chased after him. He was walking quickly and shouted at the man in front, "Master Wei, wait for me!" Wait."

The man in front stopped slightly, turned around to look, his expression was still serious, and he cupped his hands, "General Li?"

"Your Majesty Wei is so quick, but you want to meet His Royal Highness King Zhongshan?"

"Yes, General Li, do you want to come together?"

"of course."

On this day, the court meeting ended, and according to the order of the sage, the ministers and generals appointed as the prince's teachers went to the prince's palace one after another.

As soon as Wei Zheng went to court, he asked the inner eunuch to lead the way to Qihui Hall.Li Jing originally wanted to ask Wei Zheng to go with him, but he didn't expect Wei Zheng to leave so fast, or did this old fox do it on purpose?Don't want to get involved with anyone?A little too cautious.But after thinking about it, Wei Zheng was that staff member before... so cautious is also a kind of self-protection, right?

On the way to Qihui Hall, the two were silent all the way.Wei Zheng kept a straight face and remained silent, while Li Jing looked calm and remained silent.

Li Chong, who was leading the way, glanced back secretly, feeling a lot of pressure and trembling in his heart. Could it be that the two adults are dissatisfied? ?

In Qihui Hall, Cheng Qian stared at the apricot flower cake on the table thoughtfully. Last night, when he shared it with his father, it seemed...no problem, right?

Turning his head to ask Hongyu and Zhuer who were kneeling on the ground, Chengqian asked in a rather cold voice, "You said, this is the apricot flower cake sent by the queen?"

Hongyu replied in a low voice, "Returning to Your Highness, the apricot flower cake presented last night was made by the small kitchen of Qihui Palace."

Cheng Qian looked cold, "Say it clearly!"

"Your Highness, this servant found poison on the apricot cake that His Highness was going to use, and was about to report to His Highness when the emperor came, so this servant was in a panic, so I had to present the apricot cake made by the small kitchen of Qihui Hall." Hong Yu Continue to kneel down and talk.

Chengqian stared at Hongyu and asked, "Why didn't the father report to me after he left?"

Hongyu hesitated for a moment before replying in a low voice, "Your Majesty wanted to report, but His Majesty suddenly summoned your Majesty to ask why you didn't present the cakes made by the imperial dining room, so I had no choice but to tell Your Majesty, and His Majesty ordered your Majesty not to disclose this matter." You must not tell His Highness about this matter. Today, when a servant was planning to dispose of the apricot cake, Zhu Er discovered it..."

Cheng Qian was taken aback, did the emperor know?Turning his head to look at the apricot flower cake on the table, how did the emperor know that the apricot flower cake last night was not made by the Imperial Dining Room?After thinking about it for a while, I couldn't find an answer, so I simply gave up and turned to thinking about the poisoner...

Why poison him?Is it aimed at him?Or for the mother?

If he used this poisonous apricot flower cake, if something happened to him, the queen mother would be very sad, especially since the apricot flower cake was sent to him by the queen mother. At that time, not only would he have something to do, but the queen mother would also be hurt...

And suppose, he is not the only one who used the poisonous apricot cake, but also the emperor...

Well, it's hard to tell if the queen mother really jumped into the Yellow River...

A cold light flashed in Chengqian's eyes. His father had just ascended the throne, the country had just been settled, and the Turks were still in the north, and the people were resting and recuperating. Everything has just begun, and the Tang Dynasty has not yet arrived. Are these people so impatient? !

"Your Highness..." Little Yinzi and Little Jinzi came in from outside the hall. Little Yinzi and Little Jinzi glanced at Zhu'er and Hongyu who were kneeling on the ground. Lord Wei, Li Jing, General Li, pays his respects."

Cheng Qian came back to his senses, turned his head, and said, "Sister Hongyu, you have done a good job in this matter. Since it is the order of the father, then you must not disclose this matter. Don't mention it to anyone again." He said to Zhu'er, who was kneeling on the ground with an uneasy expression, "Sister Zhu'er, you have done a good job in this matter. Alright, let's go down."

Hongyu and Zhu'er looked at each other, feeling a little surprised in their hearts. What surprised Hongyu was that His Highness was not as angry as she imagined, nor did she order an investigation right away, but asked herself to keep it a secret? ?What surprised Zhu'er was that His Highness was going to just suppress it and not deal with it?But seeing Cheng Qian's expression was cold and calm, he retreated respectfully.

After Hongyu and Zhu'er retreated, Chengqian whispered to Xiao Yinzi, "Tell my mother about this. Tell me: be careful."

Little Yinzi nodded knowingly, knelt down and saluted, and left in a hurry.

*************

When Wei Zheng and Li Jing walked into the Qihui Hall, they were a little stunned. There were two table cases on the window sills on both sides of the Qihui Hall. There is nothing on the case, a few cushions are placed under the case, and nothing else.

It's really... simple.

"Master Wei, General Li." The childish and waxy voice sounded.

The two followed the prestige and saw a child in a wheelchair, wearing a dark blue gown with no decorations, very simple, with a folded square scarf on top, plain color, black and white clearly revealing the delicate eyes, straight The bridge of the nose and the slightly curved corners of the mouth are very cute.

A prince who has to sit in a wheelchair may even be inseparable from that wheelchair for the rest of his life, but he still has a light smile and clear eyes, without the gloom and arrogance that Wei Zheng imagined.

This is King Zhongshan?

Is this the king of Zhongshan who said "Although blood is a good man, forbearance is also a man"?Li Jing looked at the eight-year-old child in the wheelchair in front of him, and his heart flashed with surprise.

After the two were stunned for a moment, Wei Zheng was the first to come back to his senses, knelt down and saluted, "Wei Zheng pays homage to His Royal Highness Zhongshan King!"

Li Jing also hurriedly came back to his senses, knelt down and saluted, "Li Jing pays homage to His Royal Highness Zhongshan King!"

Cheng Qian smiled slightly, held his hands in the air, motioned to get up, and said, "Master Wei, please rise, General Li, please rise."

Wei Zheng and Li Jing just stood up, but they still stood solemnly, their postures were respectful but not humble, their expressions were very solemn and solemn.

Cheng Qian sighed softly in his heart, indeed they are all cautious people.What is the purpose of the two teachers chosen by the emperor for him to be so cautious?But he still said with a smile on his face, "It is Chengqian's honor to have two adults as Chengqian's teachers." After a pause, he said again, "The two adults are Chengqian's teachers. Call the two adults teachers. Chengqian is ignorant, and I will ask the two teachers to teach me more in the future. Chengqian is inconvenient to move, so I bowed my hands as a ceremony of worship. I also ask the two teachers not to be disgusted." After finishing speaking, he bent down and cupped his hands.

Both Wei Zheng and Li Jing returned the salute with expressions of sincerity and fear, "Your Highness has broken my humble minister!"

Chengqian straightened up and smiled shyly, "Teachers, don't be overly modest. Chengqian remembered that the emperor said that the way of teachers is different from the way of monarchs and ministers. Teachers do not distinguish between monarchs and ministers. If there is anything wrong with Chengqian in the future, please invite the two Teacher, don't be polite."

Wei Zheng froze for a moment, looked directly at Cheng Qian, Cheng Qian blinked, and looked at him, his eyes were full of sincerity.

Wei Zheng stared at Cheng Qian for a while, then nodded silently, and said solemnly, "This minister will definitely do his best."

Li Jing was surprised, and glanced at Wei Zheng, why is this old fox so careless?But it didn't show on his face, he also took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "This minister will do his best."

Cheng Qian smiled shyly and bowed his hands in return.

After several refusals, under Cheng Qian's insistence, Wei Zheng and Li Jing sat down at the table in the middle of the front hall with some rigidity. Then, seeing Cheng Qian move from the wheelchair to the cushion with difficulty, Li Jing's heart ached. Shocked, he subconsciously glanced at Xiao Jinzi, who was kneeling beside the wheelchair with his head bowed, subconsciously annoyed and just about to reprimand the dog slave, but Cheng Qian's face was calm and composed, and he couldn't help swallowing the words in his mouth, and his heart suddenly I understand, this must be King Zhongshan not letting anyone help.

And Wei Zheng watched silently after the initial shock.

After Chengqian took a breather and sat down, Zhu'er and Hongyu offered refreshments and tea.

When Li Jing sat on his knees, his back was straight, his hands were on his knees, and after regaining his senses, he asked with a slight smile, "I wonder what Your Highness wants to learn?"

Cheng Qian was taken aback, what did he learn?Isn't it just "Selected Works", "Thousand Characters" and the like?

Seeing Cheng Qian's expression stunned, Wei Zheng added, "General Li, what you mean is, besides "Thousand Character Essay", is there anything His Highness wants to learn?"

Chengqian blinked, and turned his eyes from Wei Zheng to Li Jing, and realized that these two foxes were trying to find out about him?So I couldn't laugh or cry, what else can I find out about his current appearance?Are these two foxes too careful?

He was speechless, but Chengqian pretended to think for a while, then smiled shyly and said, "Chengqian is very interested in chess and piano recently, but Chengqian's calligraphy is very bad, and he really wants to learn... I don't know. Can the two teachers teach me?"

Wei Zheng stared at Chengqian for a while, still with a straight face, nodded, and cupped his hands and said, "I am not talented, I would like to teach your highness piano and calligraphy."

Li Jing smiled and cupped his hands, "This minister is willing to teach His Royal Highness how to play chess."

Cheng Qian frowned, cupped his hands in salute, "Cheng Qian thanked the two teachers first."

*******************************

It was almost noon.In the Ganlu Hall, Emperor Taizong stood by the window sill, looking up at the sky.The sky is bright and white clouds are long.

Li Fu walked in lightly, knelt down on the ground, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, my servant."

"How?" Emperor Taizong didn't turn his head, still looking at the sky, with a lazy tone.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the apricot flower cake was made by Lao Xu of the imperial dining room. There is no problem. However, after a little maid from the Lizheng Palace went to the imperial dining room to fetch the apricot flower cake, she fell into the pond and drowned last night. ..."

"That is to say, there is no proof of death?" Emperor Taizong murmured, retracting his gaze, turning his head to stare at Li Fu with cold eyes, "tell Hongyu that all food presented to King Zhongshan must be carefully inspected, and there must be no food left in it. Any mistakes!"

Behind the low and calm tone was the anger that made Li Fu break out in cold sweat. Li Fu secretly glanced at Emperor Taizong with a cold expression, Your Majesty... really values ​​King Zhongshan...

Emperor Taizong walked to the imperial case and slammed a tea bowl down, "Li Fu!" Looking at the broken tea bowl on the ground, Emperor Taizong said calmly, "The second imperial guard army will be on duty in the Qihui Hall from now on."

Li Fu was startled, the Second Imperial Guard?

The author has something to say: PS: Supplementary information——

Official costumes of the Tang Dynasty: purple robes above rank three, wearing goldfish bags; scarlet robes above rank five, wearing silver fish bags; green robes below rank six, without fish bags.Officials with high positions but low grades still wear the original clothes.If he is a prime minister but not lower than the third grade, his official title must have the words "give a purple gold fish bag"; the governors of the state and assassins, regardless of their grades, wear row robes.

Wearing ordinary clothes (a red-yellow robe, a folded headscarf, a nine-ring belt, and a pair of Liuhe boots), this kind of ordinary clothes was gradually imitated by officials and spread to the people.

The education of princes in the Tang Dynasty: In simple terms, it is divided into three steps: assigning teachers before the enlightenment, and studying at the Chongwen Museum (it seems that it was not called this at first? It was created by Li Yuan) to study. During this period, the princes who are favored by the emperor will still be equipped with teachers. , such as Li Tai.Going out of the pavilion (that is, leaving the palace to set up a separate mansion, and the favored princes will usually be left in the palace, such as Li Zhi, such as King Yu in the Zetian period), will be equipped with "Fu Yiren, from the third grade, in charge of the assistant. Negligence, one friend, from the fifth rank, in charge of the travel office, regulation of morality, reading, no quota, one literature person, from the sixth rank, in charge of school classics, and attendant articles".
