After rebirth, I became the white moonlight of the downcast son

Chapter 64 Argument

Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.

After dealing with the courtiers, Master Zhou failed to leave the palace and return to his home, so he was invited back to the imperial study by the emperor.

"Teacher, do you think my seventh prince is worthy of being the crown prince?"

Master Zhou's heart trembled. When did the emperor become so direct?

After stroking his beard and thinking for a while, the old imperial master said: "In my humble opinion, among all the adult princes, His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince has the best character. But if he is to shoulder the important responsibilities of a country, he still has some polish. After all, the Seventh Prince has the best character.

Your Highness the Prince has few things to do, and the young man is a little more serious-minded."

These words were very sincere and pertinent. The old master pondered over and over again in his heart before he decided to speak from the heart. Don’t make false claims, and don’t flatter him in vain.

The emperor was quite satisfied to hear such a pertinent argument. If not, he would have decided to be the crown prince long ago. The old emperor's teacher was right. Among the adult princes, his Chen'er is the best. Maybe the one who has not yet matured.

There are better ones among those princes, but he doesn't have time to wait for them to grow up. His fortieth birthday will be in more than a month, and the end is already waving to him. He knows that his own body will never survive half a hundred years.

I think it will be good if we can have another five or six years.

Suddenly, the emperor was a little envious of Master Zhou. He must be sixty-six years old this year. Looking at his vitality, his age is not a problem. With good health and good health, he may not be unable to live a long life.

"Can you please tell me some of the old Imperial Master's health-preserving methods? I also want to live like the old Imperial Master for seventy years..."

Master Zhou was startled when he heard this, but he tasted the regret in the emperor's words and saw the unwillingness flashing in the emperor's eyes. He immediately understood that the emperor wanted to live forever, which was not a good sign.

Although the emperors in the past dynasties did not live long because of working day and night, the biggest reason was that they were looking for elixirs everywhere in order to live longer, but they ended up eating and eating and their bodies collapsed. In addition, the harem was frequently used to compete for favors, and it was almost

An empty bed at night will naturally shorten your lifespan in the long run. The late emperor passed away not long after he was established.

Although the current emperor is not as good as the previous saints and sages, he can still be regarded as a wise ruler. His Highness the Seventh Prince seems to be doing well, but who can predict what will happen after he ascends the throne in the future. After all, the late emperor is an example.

He was prudent in words and deeds, and was well received. But after he became emperor, he began to covet beauty, emptied his body, and died early. Therefore, after the emperor ascended the throne at a young age, the first thing he did was to abolish the Taoist tradition and practice it one by one.

In the past few years, there has been no trace of Taoist cultivators in the capital.

Thinking like this, Master Zhou asked tentatively: "Why did your Majesty say this?"

But don't follow the late emperor's old path of taking elixirs to live longer.

The emperor sighed: "The life of the royal family is short. I ascended the throne at a young age. I have experienced the sufferings before. I don't want my son to experience it again. I want to live for a few more years. I have to make arrangements for my sons."

That's fine.

Besides, I also want to have a taste of what it’s like to have sex with my grandson!”

Master Zhou carefully savored these words and then said: "With all due respect, I say that all the emperors in the past dynasties did not have short lifespans. The founder of the country was finally fifty-three years old because he injured his body in the battle."

Fundamentally. After the several emperors who died young, His Majesty’s first lesson at the Wenhua Hall was to understand the merits and demerits of the sages of the past generations. You should know what caused the short-lived emperors to shorten their lifespan.

Not to mention the distant past, your Majesty's ancestor, Emperor Qianyuan, lived to be sixty-nine years old, which is worthy of being rare in ancient times. Your Majesty asked about the old minister's health care method. It's not that the old minister is hiding something, but that the heavenly family is different from ordinary people. Your Majesty, you might as well

When you have time, look through Emperor Qianyuan's notes on daily life, and then compare them with the notes on daily life by the late emperor, you may be able to get some inspiration from them.

But one thing is that the old minister had to risk his life to pay homage. All the emperors in the past dynasties who took elixirs in order to live a long life died short-lived. It can be seen that the theory of elixirs increasing lifespan along the way is not known, but the loss of lifespan is real.

Therefore, Your Majesty, take care of your holy body and do not touch the erysipelas."

The emperor couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said: "Where did the old master think? I am just jealous to see that the old master is still energetic despite his age."

Su'er said again: "I know that elixir is poisonous, so please don't worry, teacher."

teacher!

Master Zhou nodded silently, as long as he listened to what he said, that would be fine. He was approaching old age, and he did not want to serve another emperor again.

The emperor glanced at the old Imperial Master Zhou and said, "Look at the old Imperial Master's appearance. Does this mean you don't want to be the Imperial Master of the Three Dynasties?"

Master Zhou: "I only hope to enjoy the joy of visiting you with Your Majesty."

If you are a hundred years old and fashionable, you can live happily ever after.

Are you looking forward to it? It is indeed very anticipated!

After chatting, the emperor said again: "The test papers for the Gongyuan No. 1 room have been released. Has the old master discovered any talents that can be developed?"

The old master Zhou glanced at the emperor, and then said: "If you let me say it, my grandson is better. After all, he is a student who has been taught by me for half his life. Even if it is not as good as your majesty, he is so powerful."

One, he is no worse than the people next to him."

The emperor pointed at Master Zhou and said with a smile: "Teacher, teacher, I am asking sincerely, you are just... that's all, I just don't ask."

Master Zhou: "The students who have been taught carefully by me are naturally good in every way. However, I did see a good article. It is relevant to the spring drought this year, although some of the opinions are a bit immature.

I have read a little bit, and it seems that he is a young man who is willing to be down-to-earth and pragmatic. It’s just that the title of the book is unsolved and I don’t know where it comes from.”

The emperor nodded and agreed, "Well, I have also read this article. Some of the insights are good and can be used directly after improvement. There is also an article on money and food that is also good. There is quite a lot of planning between the lines. If you join the Ministry of Household Affairs

, I will be a good helper to Lord Qin."

"Ahem..." Master Zhou said, "That should be the humble opinion of the eldest grandson of the old minister. My second son is in charge of money and food in the household department. The child heard his father talk about it a lot, so he came up with this humble opinion.

Father and son have been different since ancient times, so even if he can become an official, he will not be Lord Qin's helper."

The emperor glanced at the old master and said: "If we use our talents according to our abilities, I would rather leave my father to my son..."

Master Zhou's beard trembled, and he thought to himself, Your Majesty, can you just say it directly like this? His son is a little mediocre, but after all, it's not a big mistake.

"If he can stand out in the palace examination, and His Majesty is interested in retaining him, you might as well let him go somewhere to hone his skills. It won't be too late to transfer him to the capital when there is a chance in the future. After all, Your Majesty is in his prime."

The emperor glanced at the old master Zhou, and thought to himself, why didn't you just leave it to the new king to show his kindness? But then he said: "In fact, the article on war and the policy of the subjects that I am most optimistic about is written in such a way that

His writings are sharp and sharp, and many of his views and insights are practical and penetrating to the core, and are on par with the teacher’s policy statement back then.”

"Cough, cough..."

When the emperor saw that the old imperial master Zhou was stroking his beard and coughing again, the emperor quickly said: "Could it be that this treatise was written by the eldest grandson of the old imperial master?"

Master Zhou: "Your Majesty is wise!"

emperor:……

But I don’t want to be a saint! Two of the three best policy essays come from the Zhou family. Is there no one in Xuanguo?
