The Sword Master God's Journey to Face Slapping

Chapter 593 The eldest daughter whose everything was taken away 4

"Taifu?" Xuan Yuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, showing a bit of surprise. There was a hint of contemplation on his handsome and elegant face. He asked: "I remember that the two princes have already had several great scholars as their teachers. Why should your majesty bother you?" You want to add me? I am far less knowledgeable than the great Confucians."

He knew that Emperor Yan Ming was very displeased with the eldest prince who was born by a concubine, so he followed Emperor Yan Ming's wishes and only mentioned the second and third princes who were born by his concubine, but did not mention the eldest prince at all. Although Emperor Yan Ming had not established a prince yet, he was interested in the second prince. Sheng Tinghong, who was Emperor Yan Ming's confidant, was not unaware of this matter.

These two princes are so lucky. When they were born, Emperor Yan Ming was already the prince, and they were the emperor's grandsons. They were enlightened by great Confucian scholars from childhood. I don't know how many highly respected and talented Confucians taught me from childhood, but they really didn't use it. Sheng Tinghong stepped in again.

Emperor Yan Ming shook his head and sneered with a hint of displeasure: "Can those stubborn old guys teach my son anything good?" He was obviously interested in those who refused to accept the things he handed out. The great scholars of Zhizhi have a very bad impression.

“I was wrong before, thinking that if I had good knowledge I could teach them well, but now I know that learning the Four Books and Five Classics of Optics will only make me a nerd. I don’t want my son to become a stupid person who only knows how to act according to the books. Idiot, you can't sit in this position if you just know how to act according to the book."

Narrowing his eyes, Xuan Yuan lowered his head to cover up the dim light in his eyes. He picked up the tea cup that had been placed aside and took a sip. His eyes were slightly narrowed, and the light in them was dark and obscure. Emperor Yan Ming's words sounded like he was just complaining about the great scholars, but it undoubtedly made it clear that his successor would only be selected from the second and third princes.

Emperor Yan Ming looked at Xuan Yuan with a bit of expectation in his eyes: "Xuanzhi, you have always been clever and have a big heart. I asked you to be the second son's tutor, not because I want you to teach them the Four Books and Five Classics, but I hope you can Teach them some more practical things, and even teach them some principles of life.”

Xuan Yuan smiled noncommittally, holding a tea cup in his hand, but did not rush to agree, and just said vaguely: "The two princes are both outstanding, handsome and talented people. I can't teach these two princes to be like this. Important knowledge must be taught by His Majesty's words and deeds so that the two princes can master it."

He knew in his heart that Emperor Yan Ming spoke in a cryptic way, but his meaning was actually very simple. He hoped that Sheng Tinghong could give the second prince some advice on how to be a king and how to control his subordinates, so that he would not be turned into a well-behaved person by those big Confucians. Confucian scholar and Mr. Zhilan.

"You see them two often. Today, you and I are here in the imperial study room. Tell me what's on your mind and evaluate our two princes." After sending out all the people serving in the imperial study room, Emperor Yan Ming asked directly, "Don't be careless, just say whatever you think."

Xuan Yuan chuckled: "Then please first ask your Majesty to grant me innocence before I dare to speak nonsense."

Waving his hand, Emperor Yan Ming said magnanimously: "It's just a joke in private, how can I really take it seriously. Don't you remember? Before my father decided to rule this world, your kid once said something to my big brother. Princess, tell me that the eldest princess’s face is red and looks nothing like me.”

When Emperor Yan Ming married the Queen, the Yan Dynasty had not yet been established. His first child was the eldest princess by the Queen, and then the eldest prince by Qin Jieyu - as the eldest son's biological mother, she only had the title of Jieyu. , which is enough to show that Emperor Yan Ming is really not happy with their mother and son, because telling the origin of the eldest prince really makes Emperor Yan Ming unhappy.

Qin Jieyu deliberately climbed into Emperor Yan Ming's bed when he was drunk, but unexpectedly she got pregnant and gave birth to the eldest prince. Emperor Yan Ming never concealed his dislike for this mother and son. Although he never criticized or scolded them, he often ignored them.

After recalling the facial features of the eldest princess who was married to the eldest son of Duke Chang Guo, and looking up at Emperor Yan Ming's sharp-browed eyebrows and starry eyes, heroic and profound face, Xuan Yuan couldn't help but laugh: "The eldest princess is indeed the same as His Majesty's eyebrows. There are not many similarities, more like the empress, I think this is a good thing."

Before Emperor Yan Ming could speak again, Xuan Yuan looked calm and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, if you want me to speak frankly, I used to observe the words and deeds of the two princes. The second prince is as humble as a grain, full of benevolence and righteousness, and can be courteous to the virtuous. The third prince is brave and brave. , are familiar with the art of war, and both princes are talented people."

Emperor Yan Ming's expression was indifferent, not showing any joy or relief, but rather very cold. He has heard countless of these comments before. Who wouldn't say such nice things? But what he wants to hear is never just nice words.

Xuan Yuan continued: "Although the two princes are both extraordinary, but... they both have some small flaws that need to be corrected. The second prince is too kind, too soft-hearted, and not cruel enough. He needs to hone himself more and be able to understand The art of choice and overlordship.”

"The third prince is extremely brave, but lacks strategy. He can be called a fierce general, but he is not a general. He has to learn from the older generation of generals how to keep calm and think in a brave and diligent war."

When talking about the third prince, Xuan Yuan couldn't help but curled his lips. Why did the third prince like military law so much? He was not born with it. It was just that Emperor Yan Ming decided to prevent the two disciples from fighting each other after the third prince was born. Let him become a wise king who assists his brother.

Emperor Yan Ming's expression softened, and he nodded slightly and said: "What Xuan Zhi said is true. This is indeed my biggest headache. Since you also have this judgment, I will entrust these two people to you. You have to give me Break them off properly."

After looking at the time, Emperor Yan Ming said generously: "It's almost noon, why don't you just have lunch with me in the palace." Of course, he soon revealed his true intention, "Also bring those two Call me here, kid, and tell them to learn from you, and don't just listen to those stubborn and unrepentant scholars dropping their books."

Xuan Yuan didn't hesitate and accepted directly. Emperor Yan Ming was probably very satisfied with Xuan Yuan's understanding of taking the initiative to hand over the book. He actually had the time to chat with Xuan Yuan. Starting from the study issues of the second and third princes, Emperor Yan Ming, an old father, insisted on talking to Xuan Yuan. Xuan Yuan talks about his experience as a father.

Because they wanted to have lunch, the two of them left the royal study. When the royal meal was delivered, they went to invite the second prince and the third prince's chamberlain. Not only did they bring the two princes over, but the queen also came here.

"When I went to invite His Highness the Second Prince and His Highness the Third Prince, they were talking to the Queen in the palace. The Queen heard that it was Your Majesty who invited her, and Marquis Dingbei was also there, so she said that she would also come and have a meal with her." The Queen rushed in. The chamberlain who came back to reply before entering with the two princes knelt on the ground and spoke carefully, for fear of offending Emperor Yan Ming.

Neither Emperor Yan Ming nor the Queen could be offended by his little chamberlain. It would be fine if Emperor Yan Ming didn't care at this time. But once he got angry, the unlucky ones would of course be the ones caught in the middle, neither daring to disobey Yan Ming. Emperor Ming did not dare to offend the queen's servant.

However, Emperor Yan Ming had always had a close relationship with the Queen, and he had no intention of being angry about this matter. He just waved his hand and said, "I understand, let's go down." After the servant left, he joked to Xuan Yuan, "I once mentioned this matter to the queen, and I was afraid that the queen would come to give you, the great master, a gift."

"Your Majesty said this politely. I really should give Xuanzhi two gifts." As soon as Emperor Yan Ming finished speaking, the queen came in with the two princes. She smiled slightly and joked after Emperor Yan Ming's words, Glancing sideways at her two sons, she smiled and said, "If you give Xuanzhi two demon stars and don't give them to Shu Xiu, then why will Xuanzhi accept these two troublemakers?"

Being commented like this by his mother in public, the second prince only had a thin blush on his face, but the third prince shouted unhappily: "Who is the devil star and who is the troublemaker? My brother and I are not the same, father." The emperor praised us for being smart and sensible the day before yesterday. Isn’t that right, father?” The handsome, thick-browed third prince turned his attention to Emperor Yan Ming.

"Ahem." Ignoring his son's gaze, Emperor Yan Ming coughed lightly and motioned for the palace people to serve the queen and others to sit down. Then he said majestically, "If you are really sensible, why are you so angry just because of your mother's words?" "Rebuttal, it shows that you still need to practice."

Xuanyuan cast an illusion again: "I pay homage to the Queen, His Royal Highness the Second Prince, and His Highness the Third Prince."

When the Empress married Emperor Yan Ming, Emperor Yan Ming was still studying with Sheng Tinghong. He was also very close to Sheng Tinghong. He was also very friendly to him. He immediately shouted and said: "Xuanzhi, if these two boys are with you, If you act arrogantly and disobey, just teach them a lesson, and treat them as a lesson for me."

Xuan Yuan smiled slightly and said calmly: "The Queen is overly concerned. Both princes are people of courtesy, how can they deliberately embarrass me? Your two highnesses are very talented, and it is my blessing that I have the honor to teach them."

"Speaking of which, I do have something to do, and I want to trouble the Queen." Xuan Yuan coughed. After Emperor Yan Ming and the Queen joked about "Shu Xiu", he had a new idea.

The queen shook her head and smiled, looked at Emperor Yan Ming, and said with a hint of teasing: "I'm just saying, there must be a reason why you are willing to be the tutor of these two demon stars. Just tell me what it is. "

"Please also ask the Queen to give me a nanny who knows etiquette and is capable." Xuan Yuan said in a deep voice.
