◎Brothers and friends◎
From the beginning of Zhao Yi's enlightenment, life flies by.
In the beginning, he only learned etiquette and rules. There were only two princes in the palace, and Zhao Xu was still young, so the teacher and student were one-to-one.
Zhao Yi was quite honest at first, mainly because he was not familiar with the teacher. Later, when he became familiar with him, he couldn't suppress his naughty nature. Even Cui Wenxi would yell at him twice on weekdays, not to mention the eccentric Xia Wengong.
That boy was really annoying and so skinny that he actually cut off half of Xia Wen Gong's beard while he was dozing off. The old man was so angry that he chased the young man all over the study room with a ruler, and the old man and the young man started a cat and mouse game.
Such incidents occur endlessly.
However, Xia Wengong was also a stubborn person and would never complain in front of Zhao Yue, but he really beat Zhao Yi, and he would not dare to punish him just because he was the eldest son of the emperor.
This kind of turbulent days came to an end when Zhao Xu was sent to the study for enlightenment. Both brothers were taught by Xia Wengong. At that time, Cui Wenxi's girls' school had also been opened, and two batches of students were recruited to learn arts. .
The children are on the right track in their studies, and the female school has also been crossing the river by feeling its stones. All aspects are developing in a good direction.
Because Zhao Yi is older than Zhao Xu, Xia Wengong is already teaching him to memorize the "Three Character Classic" and recognize simple characters. Who would have thought that Zhao Yi would not be able to memorize everything, but Zhao Xu could memorize everything very well. This comparison makes him stand out.
Xia Wengong discovered a huge treasure while in despair. He felt complicated and didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
He called Zhao Xu aside. Although the boy was only three years old, his language skills were very clear and he could basically explain a complete incident. He was not as naughty as Zhao Yi and had a calm temperament. He was really a smart kid.
Before, Chen Ping told him that Zhao Yue was very smart when he was a child and that the children he gave birth to would not be stupid. He was very doubtful. But now that he saw Zhao Xu, he immediately gave up his doubts.
Zhao Xu was usually there when he was teaching Zhao Yi, but he didn't know that the flowers he planted would not bloom, but the willows he planted unintentionally would create shade, which surprised Xia Wengong.
In order to test whether Zhao Xu was really as smart as he thought, Xia Wengong began to explain to him the core meaning of the "Three Character Classic" and the meaning of each sentence.
In the end, Zhao Xu told him with practical actions that the Zhao family's IQ was fine.
It only needs to be explained twice, and whenever Xia Wengong is asked a question, he can almost answer the meaning.
This is incredible. A three-year-old child can not only memorize the "Three Character Classic" thoroughly, but also understand its meaning, which shows that his understanding is extremely high.
Let’s look at Zhao Yi, the emperor’s eldest son and future crown prince.
Xia Wengong couldn't help showing a desperate expression.
Finally, after repeatedly teaching the "Three Character Classic" to Zhao Yi for two months, Xia Wengong became completely depressed. He rarely complained to Zhao Yue, and now he couldn't stand it anymore. He felt that Zhao Yi's understanding was very good. Attract the attention of the emperor and empress.
No, Zhao Yi successfully aroused Cui Wenxi's doubts.
She didn't care much about him on weekdays. Firstly, she needed to be in charge of all the affairs in the harem, and secondly, she was busy with the women's affairs, almost pampering the two children.
Now that the teacher came to sue her, she had to pay great attention to it.
It's a pity that Zhao Yi is really a fool.
Cui Wenxi tried his best to maintain the image of a loving mother and personally questioned Zhao Yi on the "Three Character Classic". His memory was really not very good, with only more than a thousand words, he still couldn't understand the jingle over and over again.
On the other hand, the second child can not only recite it backwards and forwards, but also understand its meaning. The IQ of their old Zhao family should be no problem, Cui Wenxi is convinced.
No matter how much she disliked him, after all, he was her own son. She patiently took apart the Three Character Classic and taught it over and over again. Unfortunately, she did not make any progress at all.
In the evening, Zhao Yue asked her what the results were. Cui Wenxi couldn't help but feel a little desperate and said, "Miaomiaoqi is extremely stupid."
Zhao Yue didn't like hearing this and retorted: "Nonsense, he just didn't understand."
Cui Wenxi: "Who do you think this child is following? A Ying is younger than him. He has learned the Three Character Classic by heart and can even understand its meaning. But Miaomiao has taught it a hundred or ten times and still can't understand it."
Zhao Yue: "He must have gone out for fun. Call him here and I will question him."
Cui Wenxi said: "Fangling, go and call Miaomiao over."
The eldest brother and the second child on the other side were eating fruit. When they heard the wet nurse say that the saint called the eldest brother over for questioning, the second child looked at Lao Dadao and said, "Brother is about to be beaten."
Zhao Yi: "..."
Although he was not academically diligent, he was not stupid in other aspects. He asked his wet nurse, "Mommy, are your parents angry now?"
The wet nurse smiled and said, "I'm not angry, I just asked Miaomiao to go over and ask."
Zhao Xu said seriously: "If brother cannot answer and is beaten, and dad beats you, you go and beg grandma to protect you. If grandma hits you, go and beg dad to protect you."
Zhao Yi issued a soul torture: "What if they want to beat me?"
Zhao Xu: "..."
That would be tragic.
At first, Zhao Yue, like Cui Wenxi, thought he could control his temper and maintain the image of a loving father. Who knew that after he got angry, Zhao Yue got into a fight with him.
The father and son are also stubborn people. When they said "Silk and bamboo are the eight tones", Zhao Yi insisted on saying it was the ninth tones, which made Zhao Yue very angry.
Cui Wenxi saw the veins on his forehead bulging, and was afraid that he would get angry, so he quickly said: "That's it for today. The child is still young. Erlang, please calm down and don't torment him."
Zhao Yue was so angry that she jumped, pointed at Zhao Yi, and wanted to say something, but finally endured it.
Cui Wenxi was afraid that he was going to beat someone up, so he quickly asked Fang Ling to take the kid down, thus avoiding the chaos.
Zhao Yue was really angry. She drank two glasses of water to calm down her shock and said, "It's so stupid! It's so stupid!"
Cui Wenxi: "..."
Seeing that he was really pissed off, Fang Ling called for his second son to comfort him.
Zhao Xu is really pleasing to people. Whenever he is asked a question, he can answer it in an orderly manner.
Zhao Yue was so irritated by the boss just now, but now she is in a much better mood, because when she sees the second brother, she seems to see her past self, and she also sees hope for the future.
This idea is very dangerous.
After being coaxed by the second child, Cui Wenxi thought that the eldest brother must be in a bad mood after being reprimanded just now, so he let the second child go back to coax him, so as not to let the eldest son's grudge affect the brotherly relationship.
After the palace attendants took the second child away, Cui Wenxi said worriedly: "These two children, one is in the sky and the other is on the earth. When they grow up, A Ying will be more popular than Miaomiao, and the second son will be more popular than the eldest son, which will definitely cause disputes." , what should we do?"
Zhao Yue was silent and said seriously: "Yuan Niang's words can't help but remind me of the East Palace back then. At that time, my father was like Miaomiao in the eyes of my grandfather, and the second and third emperor uncles below were like A Yinggeng. Be liked by him.”
Cui Wenxi: "..."
This is fatal.
Zhao Yue: "A Ying is like me when I was a child, Miaomiao... I guess he followed his grandfather."
Cui Wenxi covered his face silently.
Everyone in the civil and military circles of the dynasty knew that the Supreme Emperor had mediocre qualifications, but he was still the eldest son. It was not easy to survive under the pressure of imperial power.
Although from the current point of view, the eldest and the second child are from the same mother, they should not be so cruel, but one is extremely talented and the other is mediocre. In terms of mental strength, the eldest child will definitely be defeated by the second child.
After all, the emperor's family is different from ordinary families. There are too many things involved. If the eldest brother can't suppress the second son, there will be great drama in the future.
Cui Wenxi said worriedly: "Since Miaomiao is stupid, she should work more on Aying." After saying that, she looked at him and said, "Erlang should think more about their future."
Although some words were not explained, Zhao Yue still understood and said seriously: "How can brothers from the same mother kill each other? I will discuss this topic with Duke Xia Wen."
Cui Wenxi nodded, "It would be great for him to guide the two brothers."
Zhao Yue held her hand and said, "We need to provide more guidance." After a pause, he said, "It's better to have one son and one daughter."
Cui Wenxi rolled his eyes, "If I try to have a third child again, or a boy..."
Zhao Yue: "..."
No one wants to live this day.
Now that he realized that the second child was much better than the eldest brother, Zhao Yue became more interested in them. He and Xia Wengong had a detailed discussion about their differences.
Although Xia Wengong disdains these fights, he is not stupid. He knows the bloody cruelty of the imperial family. Even brothers, it is common for them to turn against each other for power.
Now that Zhao Yue took the initiative to talk to him about this problem, he did not hide anything and said straight to the point: "Miaomiao's qualifications are indeed much worse than Aying's."
Zhao Yue: "What you said is absolutely true, but Miaomiao is the eldest son of the emperor and the candidate for the future crown prince. Even though Aying is extremely talented, he will be relegated to the position of prince because he was born late. This is his fate."
Xia Wengong stroked his beard and said, "Confucianism follows the principle of establishing direct descendants and establishing elders. Miaomiao is a well-deserved candidate for the crown prince, so I will naturally train him as a crown prince. However, A Ying's talent must not be buried. In my opinion, there is no need to restrain him. Let him choose as he chooses." .”
These words made Zhao Yue curious, "What is laissez-faire?"
Xia Wengong: "If jade is not carved, it cannot become a tool. Miaomiao needs to be carved and polished with great effort. Aying is talented and intelligent, but over-carving has polished his spirituality. Let's take a look at him first and then guide him."
Zhao Yue nodded and said approvingly: "Sir, you are serious."
Xia Wengong picked up the tea cup and said, "I like both of these children. One is lively and lively, and the other is calm. Speaking of which, Miaomiao is suitable for martial arts, while Aying can sit still and is suitable for scholars."
Zhao Yue smiled and said: "Sir, I don't know. When A Ying was one year old, she once grabbed a wooden sword."
Xia Wengong was quite surprised, "Seriously?"
Zhao Yue nodded, "Seriously."
Xia Wengong stroked his beard, "Although catching Zhou doesn't mean anything, it does occasionally mean something." He added, "When Your Majesty talks to me about this matter today, he will naturally guide the two brothers to love each other more, so that they can be respectful brothers." .”
Zhao Yue said happily: "That's exactly what I meant."
Xia Wengong reminded: "Your majesty and his wife should also provide more guidance. With the words and deeds of your loved ones, you will get twice the result with half the effort."
Zhao Yue: "I have learned a lesson."
So in order to prevent brothers from biting dogs, the couple thoroughly instilled in them the concept of brotherhood and brotherhood. Cui Wenxi said to the second child in a crude and simple way: "Aying, isn't Miaomiao very stupid? He can't even read the Three Character Classic." Can carry it."
The honest Zhao Xu nodded, "Brother is a bit stupid."
Cui Wenxi threw the blame and said: "Yesterday your father reprimanded Mr. Xia Wen, saying that he was useless and couldn't even teach the Three Character Classic."
Zhao Xu hesitated to speak.
Cui Wenxi came up with a bad idea and said, "Why don't you teach Miaomiao?"
Zhao Xu: "???"
Cui Wenxi: "Look, Miaomiao not only made Mr. Xia Wen angry, but also made me and your father angry. If he continues like this, what should he do if we don't want him anymore?"
Zhao Xu: "..."
Cui Wenxi: "Shall we throw him out?"
Zhao Xu was silent, "Mom, I'd better keep it."
Cui Wenxi: "Since you want to keep him, it's up to you to teach him the Three Character Classic. If even you can't teach it, I'll throw you both out together."
Zhao Xu: "..."
Talking to adults is indeed full of pitfalls!
The author has something to say:
Zhao Xu: Brother, they are so insidious that they bundled us together.
Zhao Yi: I listen to whatever my brother says! !
Zhao Xu: If I get beaten, you fight for me.
Zhao Yi: Copy my homework for me.
Zhao Xu:. . . .
OK
