Man Bao's eyes brightened, "Are you still teaching how to be an official? I want to learn it too. Why isn't it on the schedule you gave me? Which attendant taught it? I'm going to take it too!"
Zhou Man was recruited to live in the palace. Yang Heshu said at the beginning that if she wanted to attend classes, she could go to attend. After all, when Chongwen Museum was recruiting talents, her name was on the recruitment list, although she did not come in as a student, But as an official.
However, Zhou Man was very busy after entering the palace. After a few months, he took no more than five classes in total, two of which were to support their husband, and the other three were because the content of the classes happened to be of interest to her. So ran to listen.
Bai Shan glanced at her and said, "Of course it's not directly talking about the way of being an official. Sometimes the attendants will discuss with us what happened in the court, as well as the disputes in the previous court. Now, after knowing the adults in the previous dynasty and what the adults in the court did, I gradually figured it out."
He said: "And there is Mr. here."
There are some things that cannot be said in class. If you say them thoroughly, it will be boring and easy to get into trouble.
But Bai Shan and Bai Cheng are the direct disciples of Mr. Zhuang, so they are naturally different. He is also serving as a lecturer in the palace now, so it is convenient for him to give them a small talk.
Every day, the three masters and apprentices talk to each other, answer some questions they have in class, and point out what the other lecturers and doctors have not said, so Bai Shan has learned it.
To put it bluntly, being a mediocre official in the court can last for a long time; but working in his position so that he can live up to the salary he received; moreover, he must not forget his original intention, so that even if he dies, the Tao will not disappear.
This is the way of being an official that Bai Shan summed up after listening to the lectures of various gentlemen.
He said to Man Bao: "Just ask me what you want to know, otherwise if you want to figure it out, I'm afraid you won't be able to miss a class."
When Man Bao heard this, he was discouraged, "Okay, you can show me the notes you made, or talk to me every day during meal breaks. I'm so busy now that I don't have time at all."
Bai Shan nodded, "I see."
He tapped some well-ground ink, put down the ink stick and said, "Let's write."
Man Bao thought for a while, and after half a quarter of an hour, he dipped his pen in ink.
Bai Shan sat on the sidelines and watched, giving her pointers from time to time, asking her to change the sentence or write it in another way.
Because I have already written it once, and this time I discussed it with Bai Shan first, so it is quite smooth.
Man Bao finished writing in one breath.
Seeing that the time for class in the afternoon was approaching, Bai Shan took the manuscript she had written and went through it quickly, then nodded and said: "You just need to fix it again, I'm going to class."
Man Bao waved: "Go, go."
Bai Shan ran to class, and Man Bao smiled with the finished manuscript, read it through and changed a few sentences, then dried up the ink, put away the things, and ran back to the Chongwen Museum happily.
Man Bao found a brand-new notebook in his place, brewed it for a while, cleared his throat, then opened the notebook and copied the manuscript, and paid special attention to the font, keeping the notebook clean, and be sure to To be the best.
She felt that she was not so serious during the exam.
Copying was slower than writing, and when she finally finished copying, her neck was sore.
She raised her head, turned her sore neck, waited for the ink to dry, she put away the booklet, and then sent the booklet to the door for saving.
Hmph, quarreling, who is afraid of whom
It's just a pity, I'm going to take a rest tomorrow, and now I'm about to leave the office, it will take two days for the door to accept it, right
For the first time, I was not so eager to take a shower.
Man Bao sent the zhezi to Menxia Province, and then walked back to the East Palace with his hands behind his back. It happened that the prince was about to return to the East Palace after finishing his work in the Taiji Hall.
Seeing the man in front of him walking with his hands behind his back from a distance, the prince couldn't help but turned his head and asked Eunuch Wu, "What's the happy event?"
Eunuch Wu thought hard for a long time but couldn't come up with it, so he said carefully: "Because the Tai Medical Office is about to start school?"
The Imperial Medical Office started school, and when Zhou Man was in class, she would definitely go to class, so she must have a lot of time to go in and out of Miyagi.
It's always more fun outside than in the palace.
Eunuch Wu thought about it for a long time, but he only remembered this one, and then he disappeared.
The prince glanced at him, and walked towards Zhou Man with his hands behind his back. The people in front didn't notice it, mainly because the two sides were a little far away.
Seeing that she entered the East Palace with her hands behind her back, the prince looked left and right at the scenery on both sides, so he couldn't help but look left and right, and realized after a while, why did it look like the East Palace was her territory
The prince simply shouted out of luck: "Zhou Man!"
Man Bao was enjoying the scenery on both sides, when he suddenly heard the call and was startled, he immediately withdrew his hands behind his back and turned around to look, only to see the prince standing far away.
Man Bao stood still, wanting to wait for him to come up, but seeing that the other party didn't move, she felt that something was wrong, as if she was a subordinate, although he wanted to go to her side, she still had to go to him.
Man Bao was tired, but with a smile on his face, he trot forward happily.
After running for a long time, he came to the prince and saluted out of breath, "I have seen His Royal Highness the prince."
The prince said: "In the palace, what is the proper way to run and jump?"
Man Bao: ... If she walks over slowly, will she become disrespectful to the prince
However, the crown prince just got used to training his younger brothers and sisters, so he taught him casually, and when he saw someone approaching him, he continued to go to the East Palace and asked, "Are you going to Taiji Palace to see Prince Gong?"
"No, His Highness Prince Gong doesn't need to watch it every day. I'll take a look when I'm free. I didn't go today. I went to the provincial government."
Although Zhou Man said it lightly, the prince knew that she was not careless, even if Prince Gong didn't need her to take care of him, she would go there every two days at most.
If she didn't go, she would write a letter to the queen to ask for leave. The prince had seen her leave application from the queen.
The prince asked: "What are you going to do in Menxia Province?"
Man Bao told Wang Ji and others about the impeachment of the crown prince and the imperial hospital's money-grabbing. Seeing that the crown prince was indifferent, he asked, "Your Highness, are you not angry?"
"Oh, it's not worth getting angry about such a trivial matter," he said, "Father and the courtiers are not stupid, it's only two thousand taels a year, not twenty thousand taels, two hundred thousand taels, there is nothing to be greedy for." Is this some money?"
Eunuch Wu who was behind him responded, "That's right, Your Highness just took out a glass of pearls, and a few pieces of jade are worth so much money, so why go greedy for that little money? It's just that they don't like His Highness, so they just impeached him."
As long as it is not pointing out the shortcomings of the prince, nor is it implying that he has no children, and the number of participants is not enough, the prince will generally not explode.
People impeach him every day. If he gets angry every time, he should just be angry every day.
