princes and generals

Chapter 1 01. Naming

When the old master was still alive, the Ning Dynasty officials always liked to send their children to his house, and asked him to calculate the children's horoscopes and approve the fate of a group of children.

Ji Lanshan, an old teacher of the state, has gone through three dynasties. She is good at divination and calculation, and she is nicknamed Huang Daxian.

He has a golden eloquence and never misses what he said. The royal family of the Ning Dynasty regarded him as the emperor and worshiped him like an ancestor.An old national teacher with such status has never relied on his elders to sell his elders. No matter which family's children come to his door to ask him for a fortune, he will agree.

The heart is like Ji's old national teacher, but he said something like this: "Zongheng Ningdu, only permission is not approved."

Old Master Ji hates Yun's family, no matter who the children of Yun's family are, no matter how expensive they are, he doesn't count if he sees them.

The old national teacher had a grudge against the Yun family, because the empress of the Ning Dynasty married the emperor's husband, whom the old national teacher strongly opposed Yun Lian.

He loved Wu and Wu, hated Wu and Wu, the old master hated Yun Lian, and even the whole family surnamed Yun.

Yunshi is the illegitimate son of the head of the Yun family. His mother is unknown. He was only allowed to enter the house when he was five years old. He was raised under the family of the mistress as his son. He treated him as if he was his own, and did not treat him badly in terms of food and clothing, but when Yun Shi's name was to be recorded in the genealogy, the mistress of the Yun family objected for the first time.

She said: "None of the children of Yun's family has been approved by the old master. This child has not been officially given a name, so he can't be counted as Yun's family. Why don't you bring it to the old master to calculate the horoscope first, and then enter the genealogy. .”

What the mistress said was reasonable, and there seemed to be nothing to object to. Master Yun thought about it and agreed.

So, the mistress picked a sunny day, brought generous gifts, and led Yunshi's hand into the National Teacher's Mansion.

Although the Yun family took advantage of the loopholes, but Yun Shi was not considered the Yun family after all, the old national teacher couldn't refuse, so he just left them dry in the lobby, without seeing them for a long time.

This old man is old, but he still has a temper after all. The Yun family is cunning, and he can play tricks in different ways.

"Mistress." After waiting for a long time, the mistress didn't say anything, but Yunshi became a little impatient. When he came, he ate some melons and fruits randomly, and his stomach was overwhelmed with discomfort, "Mistress, my stomach hurts."

"What's going on?" The mistress frowned, half concerned and half blaming.

"I want to go to the hut."

"Go." The mistress breathed a sigh of relief, and summoned an attendant to take Yunshi to the latrine.

Although Yunshi was very calm when he grew up, he was still a child when he was five years old, and he would go up and take a look at new things when he saw them.

The National Teacher's Mansion is quite large, there are many flowers, plants and trees in the backyard, and there are many children's playthings. Yunshi has been growing up among the people, and his family is poor. He has never seen these interesting things, and he stopped for a while.

There are two small horses on the small stone road, one is painted maroon and the other is painted in dark ink, like real horses, they are parked by the side of the road to eat grass, quietly, they are very attractive.

Yun Shi took a few steps forward, walked to the maroon mazar, and stretched out his hand to touch it.

"Ji Changfan, you are stupid! Haha!" Suddenly there was a burst of laughter, Yun Shi's outstretched hand seemed to be stabbed, and he shivered and pulled it back.

"Haha!" The laughing child ran out from behind the tree, pushed Yunshi who was in the way and stepped on the ponytail, the movement was done in one go.

The old national teacher has no heirs, and adopted two children as apprentices, a boy and a girl, the older one is a boy, called ordinary, with the surname Ji of the national teacher, I heard that he is a rare genius, and his fate is very good, with him , the country is prosperous.

Could this child be Ji Changfan?

"Yue Yang!"

Yun Shi looked up, and saw another child fell from the tree, his face was full of anger, the child who threw himself on the pony pony was punched, but the child laughed and avoided.

"Ji Changchang, you can't hit me!" He was still provocative.

It turns out that he is not Ji Changfan...

The family and the country are prosperous, such comments are not about him...

"Young Master." The servant called out.

"Let's go." Yun Shi took another look at the two people who were chasing, and then left without hesitation.

Yue Yang, who was following Ji Huan, suddenly turned his head to look at Yun Shi who was leaving, why did the child's small back look so lonely?

"Yue... Yang!" This distraction caused Yue Yang to be pinned to the ground by Ji Changfan's counterattack.

"Ouch——Ji Changchang, this is a sneak attack! Shameful!"

"Who are you looking at?" Ji Changfan stretched his neck, and asked while watching, "The eyes are almost falling out."

"...I want you to take care of it!"

……

From Chuyang to sunset, Yunshi has been standing by Mistress's side, never saying a word or doing anything more.

When the sun was setting and the sky was burning red with the glow of the sunset, the old national teacher came late, leading a six or seven-year-old boy by his side, who was Ji Changchang whom he had seen in the backyard.

Master Ji is over eighty years old, with silver hair all over his hair, but he still has the appearance of a man in his thirties and forties, with a slight smile and affectionate eyes, he really lives up to his title of handsome and virtuous king.

It turned out that the old master smiled so nicely, when Yun Shi walked in front of him, he even patted his head lightly, he didn't hate Yun's family as rumored outside.

"What's your name?" the old teacher asked Yun Shi.

Yun Shi pursed his lips and did not speak.

"Oh, that's right." The old national teacher thought for a while, "You can endure loneliness and the years, so let's choose a time character for your name."

Yun Shi was stunned, and couldn't help asking: "It's the first time you've seen me, so you know I can stand loneliness?"

Five-year-old children probably don't know what loneliness is, but they can vaguely understand the meaning of it. Is the so-called loneliness just a person?

"You can just wait for an old man like me all day, isn't it a person who can bear it?" the old master asked back.

Yun Shi nodded.

"Kid, it's better to be active." The old master smiled and patted his head again.

The mistress sitting at the bottom wrung her hands tightly, her face couldn't hide her excitement, seeing this situation, the old master liked Yunshi, and even gave her a name.

The old national teacher has a special status, and he also gave the name of Her Majesty the Empress. It cannot be said that it is an honor to be named by him.

"National teacher." The mistress stepped forward with a smile, "I also ask the national teacher to criticize a batch of this child's fate."

"There is no such thing as good or bad fate." The old national teacher smiled, "All you care about is whether he is useful to the Yun family."

The smile on the mistress's face froze.

There was a moment of silence, and the atmosphere became inexplicably subtle.

Yun Shi just stood there, staring blankly at the front, as if everything that happened in front of him had nothing to do with him.

Such a temperament is indeed a little cold.

Ji Changfan looked at Yun Shi, and suddenly the corners of his lips curled up, his little face was full of bad water.

There is nothing good about the children who are raised by the national teacher's side. Ji Changfan's thoughts are even more meticulous, and his bad stomach is written all over his face.

"Hey!" Ji Changchang spread out his hand, "Take out your birth date, and I'll do the math for you."

Yun Shi pursed his lips, and obediently took out the paper with his birthday written on it and handed it over, without any temper.

Ji Changchang took a look and laughed, "Master, look, this kid will be a treacherous minister in the future, and he will seek power and usurp the throne!"

The child's voice is clear and crisp, and it lands with sound.

The surroundings were so quiet that even the sound of the needle dropping could be heard clearly, the mistress looked at Yun Shi with her mouth wide open in surprise, her eyes complicated.

Yun Shi frowned slightly, clenched his little hands tightly, and said nothing.

"Ji Changchang, you are talking nonsense again!" Suddenly a figure came out from behind the curtain, stepped forward and grabbed Ji Changchang's ear and grinned, "Last time you said that I will be ruined and stinking forever, my lord! You obviously don't know anything and just talk nonsense! "

Ji Changfan twisted his head and struggled away, and the two of them twisted together again. The paper with Yunshi's birthday on it fell to the ground, and the black and white characters were clearly distinct.

The old master picked up the paper and glanced at it, then smiled softly, "This destiny is really..."

"National teacher..." The mistress took two steps forward, looking nervously at the old national teacher.

"If he is really a treacherous minister in the future, how will you deal with him?"

The mistress seemed extremely disappointed, she looked at Yun Shi and shook her head, "Let's not enter the court, I am willing to ask the national teacher not to tell what happened today, so as to keep this child safe for the rest of his life."

The old master closed the paper and waved to Yue Yang, "Still messing around? Both of you come here."

The two children who were making a fuss obediently came over, and the old national teacher pointed at Ji Fanfan, "The family and country are prosperous, but the future is uncertain. There are two kinds of people's lives."

As he spoke, he pointed at Yun Shi and Yue Yang again, "Princes and generals, ministers and courtiers die in name, you two, success or failure are at the mercy of one thought."

Yue Yang tilted his head and blinked his eyes, "Grandpa, I am me and he is him, so our fates are still the same?"

Master Ji shook his head, with nothing but regret in his eyes, he wrote two notes with a pen, sealed them in an envelope and handed them to them, "Wait another ten years before you can open them."

Yun Shi took the envelope, pursed his lips, and hid it in his bosom, but Yue Yang casually stuffed the envelope into his sleeve pocket.

"Hey, what's your name?" Yue Yang leaned over and asked, his white teeth glistened with a grin, and there were still beads of sweat on his forehead, probably from the heat just now.

"Yunshi." When Yunshi said his name for the first time, there was really not much expression on his face.

Yue Yang bared his teeth happily and pulled his face, "Seeing that you are about the same age as me, why do you like to keep a straight face like my father? Come on, young master, I will help you, just smile——"

Yun Shi stood still, Ren Yueyang kneaded and circled, his eyes were lowered, his expression remained unchanged, he was a little bit like a puppet.

The mistress took Yunshi's hand back, and when she stepped into the gate of Yun's house, the mistress asked Yunshi, "From today on, you are Yunshi. How do you choose to go?"

Yun Shi looked at the Zhumen compound in front of him, raised his head and said: "Mistress, I only heard the national teacher say that I am a prince and general."

The mistress was stunned, then squatted down and smiled, "Good boy, you are my son, you will call me mother from now on, no need to call me mistress anymore!"

Yun Shi raised his face, and suddenly smiled, his fair face was full of childish innocence, "Mother!"
