Chapter 1450

Man Bao: "what did you write?"

Mr. Zhuang and Xiang Mingxue also looked up at Xiang Baishan curiously.

Bai Shan said solemnly, "the prince will recruit talents for Chongwen hall."

Chongwen hall is the place where the crown prince studies. It is the place where the crown prince is taught by the Taifu from childhood. Unlike other princes, the crown prince is educated by the emperor from childhood, and the teacher is independent.

In the past, the crown prince's grand Fu was Kong Jijiu and bachelor Lu. In the first 18 years, although the crown prince was naughty and occasionally rebellious, he preferred to practice martial arts on horseback compared with writing, but he was satisfied with Kong Jijiu and bachelor Lu as a whole.

After all, he is the crown prince, and his poetry is not well written, but he is proficient in Confucian classics and Confucianism, and he has the intention to govern the world.

But later, when the prince learned badly, the emperor began to change his teachers batch by batch. All the ministers in the court had been the prince's teachers, such as Wei Zhi, Lord Tang, Li Shangshu, and even his uncle Zhao Guogong and Yin Li had been teachers in the Chongwen hall for several months.

However, the emperor's method did not work, but made the ministers more and more disappointed in the prince, and the relationship between the prince and the ministers was also more complex.

For example, Wei Zhi did not approve of abolishing the crown prince, but he also felt that the crown prince did not do well, so he wrote to scold the crown prince every so often that he could almost catch up with the emperor.

However, when someone suggested that the third prince was filial and smart, Wei Zhi maintained the crown prince and thought that orthodoxy should be maintained. The Third Prince did not take the initiative to vassal, but obviously he was an adult and stayed in the capital, making the emperor embarrassed, even if it was not filial.

Sometimes the crown prince does too much wrong, and he can't help writing to the emperor. Otherwise, you'd better consider changing the crown prince.

Of course, after that, he would add another letter, saying that the previous letter was written by him without reason, so he apologized.

Anyway, in a word, Chongwen hall is the place where the prince studies and his territory, but now he writes to the emperor and brazenly wants to recruit talents.

Bai Shan took a sip of tea, because he said a little more in the afternoon and was still a little hoarse at the moment. "The prince wrote that he had many shortcomings. It was his fault that he didn't listen to the teachers' teachings before. Anyway, he knows his mistakes now."

He said: "I heard that the emperor was so happy that he said on the spot that he wanted to offer a drink to Kong. They arranged shifts to teach the prince."

"The prince also said that he was boring to read alone and could not learn it, so he wanted some people to read with him." Bai Shan said solemnly, "the crown prince has even prepared the list. They are all the sons of dignitaries in the court, and even the son of Lord Wei is on it."

He said: "originally, your Majesty was very happy, but he frowned when he saw the list. Lord Wei was not present at that time, but Li Shangshu's people also objected. Lord Wei entered the Palace this afternoon. Your majesty didn't see him. Lord Wei blocked the door of the Tai Chi palace and scolded for an hour before he left the palace."

So one afternoon, all the people in Guozi school knew.

No way, as the reserve of future officials, their news is so well-informed.

Man Bao opened his mouth and suddenly remembered what the emperor said to her standing by the stone jar today.

She didn't feel quite right and swallowed her throat: "the crown prince thanked me at noon today."

Bai Shan asked, "thank you for what?"

Man Bao was half silent. After a long silence, he said, "forget it. We don't care about the things between them. It seems that it has nothing to do with us."

Seeing that she was shrinking like a quail, Bai Shan couldn't help asking, "what bad have you done?"

"No!" Man Bao flatly denied it.

Bai Shan already said, "it can't have nothing to do with us, because it's said from the doctors today that Kong Jijiu doesn't want to teach the prince and is planning to go home."

The Imperial College now has few cattle, ghosts and snake gods. A large part of the reason is that it benefits from the protection of Kong sacrificial wine. Once he leaves, it is not certain who will hand over the Imperial College in the future, which is really related to them.

Man Bao hesitated and said, "Your Majesty is likely to agree with the prince's letter?"

Even Mr. Zhuang couldn't help asking, "why?"

Man Bao: "because the lotus in the stone jar will live. It will not only live, but also grow well."

Man Bao was right. After an afternoon and an evening's rest, she broke off more than half of the lotus tubers in the stone jar, which not only straightened the lotus rod, but also half opened the two buds, all showing how strong and energetic they are.

The emperor came to see it early in the morning. He stared at the flowers in the stone jar for a while, turned his head and asked Gu Zhong, "didn't you change the lotus?"

Gu Zhong immediately said, "after your majesty left yesterday, the slave asked someone to guard here. No one has touched the lotus."

The emperor nodded, asked the gardener kneeling aside and asked, "can that tuber live after being broken off so much?"

The gardener was not here yesterday. He didn't know how much Zhou man broke off, but it didn't delay his answer. He said, "Your Majesty, there is only a little left of the lotus stem. As long as it can germinate, it can grow."

But it's not certain how long it will take to grow well.

The gardener didn't dare mention it.

After a moment of silence, the emperor said, "it's tenacious."

The gardener put his head against the floor tile and said, "as long as there is water, it can live."

The emperor held his finger and didn't speak.

Although the crown prince occasionally quarrels with others these days, his temper has indeed converged a lot. At present, he still has the intention to manage contacts. This is a good thing.

The emperor was really not afraid of the prince's contacts. What he was afraid of was that he was as generous as before.

But it's not good to be too big. The list submitted by the crown prince almost includes all the aristocratic families and the school-age CHILDES of dignitaries in Beijing.

The emperor pondered for a moment and turned to the front hall. It was time to go to the early Dynasty.

Today's early days were particularly noisy. The emperor agreed to the prince's request to recruit talents for Chongwen hall. He thought that the prince was rarely willing to make progress, and of course he would support it.

Some of the courtiers agreed, but others were right, so they quarreled very much.

When man Bao entered the palace, the crown prince was still quarreling with people in front of the palace. She touched her pulse with the crown princess, indicating that the child was very healthy. Then she learned the piano with the Crown Princess and occasionally ate two snacks.

They are here, the wind and the sun are rising, and the prince is in front of them. Kong sacrificing wine has been tossed by the prince in recent years. He is not willing to run to teach him again, so he wrote to the emperor to resign and want to return to his hometown.

As a result, it became more and more noisy. Under this uproar, the overturning case of Zhou man, the knife throwing case of carriage, and even the poisoning case of the crown prince were about to be forgotten

The recruitment of talents in Chongwen hall was not so simple, so during their quarrel, Yin Li and Tang He took the opportunity to investigate more and more deeply, and brought back more and more news and things to the capital.
