Menglong wants to be nine thousand years old

The Eternal Spring Palace has been rearranged.

Just like the registration day, only the upper one has seats, but there are many low footstools in the lower one, and a small futon is spread on the ground next to each footstool.The light color, coupled with the incense burner on the table, at first glance seems to have gone to the wrong space, not to the training class, but to the temple by mistake.This made Zili, who had a good impression of the temple, feel at ease instantly.

Bearing in mind Eunuch Fu's instructions to himself before he left, not to stand out too much, and not to look too out of place, Zili looked around and chose a place in the middle of the room.Then he sat down and waited for the first formal eunuch training class in his life.

This wait took about...

Well, Zili didn't have to wait long.

It was completely different from the maid training class in Yutong Palace next door.Most of the men who entered the palace as eunuchs had no way out. For them, this training was a single-plank bridge that they could only move forward and not retreat.There was a cliff behind him, and if he made a mistake, he would be doomed. Naturally, no one would dare to take Joe for being late on purpose.So it took only a while for all the people in Changchun Palace to arrive.

Of course...it was said that they were all there, but in fact it was sparse, and there were not many people in total.

The first few who came in occupied one place, occupying all four corners of the Changchun Hall.Afterwards, those who came in were one by one, hardly sitting next to the others, and that was it, the surroundings of Zili were still empty, without a single person.

This made Zili very depressed, and kept thinking about whether to change seats.

But at this moment, he saw an old eunuch with gray eyebrows pushing a small cart walking in from the outside.

Zili didn't dare to move immediately.He stared at the old eunuch.

I saw that his back was very hunched, and he walked slowly, almost coughing every step of the way, which made people tremble with fear, but the cart in his hand was extremely stable, Zili admired it very much.So unconsciously, he shifted his gaze to the small trolley.

I don't know what's inside, he tilted his head and thought.

Then he found that the old eunuch turned his back to close the outermost door of the Changchun Palace, came back with a bowed body, stood in front of the top seat, and had already started talking.

It turned out that he was one of the masters teaching everyone today, Eunuch Luo.

"Today's eunuch training course has a total of four lessons, two in the morning and two in the afternoon, and lunch and break at noon." This is the first sentence Eunuch Luo said to everyone after he opened his mouth.

Not very serious, not particularly nice.But maybe it was because Eunuch Luo looked older and had a smile on his face, which naturally made people feel close. After he finished saying this sentence, Zili found that the surrounding atmosphere was much more relaxed than before.

"Eunuch Luo, are you teaching all our lessons today?"

"What do you learn in the first class? What kind of scriptures does our master in my hometown supposedly teach? One character...ah, yes, it's the Three Character Classic."

Some people started whispering.

Eunuch Luo was naturally annoyed at the person who violated classroom discipline like this: "Be quiet, everyone be quiet!"

But that being said, anyone could tell from that soft tone that Eunuch Luo was not really angry.Of course, the atmosphere not only did not calm down for a while, but became even more noisy.

"Ahem." Apparently realizing that he couldn't control the situation, Eunuch Luo coughed awkwardly, and went with everyone.

After a while, after everyone's excitement passed and the hustle and bustle calmed down, he continued to say to everyone: "Our first class is called Burying the Past. This is a class specially designed for everyone to cry."

Zili was instantly stunned by these words.Lessons for crying, that sounds weird!

Zili is obviously not the only one who has this idea.

Seeing that it finally calmed down, everyone wanted to talk again.Eunuch Luo didn't wait any longer this time, and took up the conversation directly: "I know that everyone must feel very strange when I say this. Why did the palace make such a course for everyone. But in fact, This is the last chance for everyone to be upright and cry."

Finding a pair of dark eyes looking at him, Eunuch Luo didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly felt emotional.

"Are you guys thinking, what's the point of crying? Yes, I know, I know you must be thinking about this! But, listen up! In the past, you were all little men in your family, raised as the pillars of the future, and you were young , you may not be able to cry to your heart's content. And in the future, when you step into this palace, it's like turning a page in a book. Whether you want to admit it or not, you are actually the emperor's people. Don't Calling crying, even laughing is not free.”

This is... maybe a little heavy.There was a collective silence for a while.

After a long time, Zili realized that someone had raised his hand: "But father-in-law... If you can't cry in this class, what should you do?"

The questioner was a boy about seven or eight years old.He was black and thin, wearing the eunuch's uniform, which also looked empty, with an extremely stunted appearance.The hairstyle is the most eye-catching part of his body. There is a big pineapple-like ball on the back of his head, which rises high, but the hair on his forehead and temples has been shaved clean, revealing his blue-gray scalp.

When he stood up, Zili heard laughter from around him.It wasn't particularly big, or hearty, just vague, but obviously enough to make him feel ashamed.

"I, I... I'm sorry, I'm just curious, just ask." Like a little gray rabbit that was suddenly caught by someone, he looked like he was fighting.Tried to sit down several times.But he was stopped by the boy sitting on his left.

Zili was sitting on the right side of him, and there was no one in between, so he could see clearly.

He didn't know if Eunuch Luo had noticed this, but fortunately, accusations of this kind of thing did not fall on this boy who seemed to be used as a "scapegoat".

"Good question. The palace needs children who are smart and good at thinking." Eunuch Luo raised his thumb and looked at the boy who raised his hand approvingly.The next moment, he showed an indescribably complicated expression: "However, sometimes curiosity can lead you into a huge disaster. Many times, all you need to do is to obey orders and protect yourself. Of course... …More often, it’s involuntary.”

As he said that, he pointed to the trolley he pushed: "For example, how can you cry about your questions now? It's actually very easy. Have you seen this thing? Do you think that half of my body will be buried in the ground?" The old man, what did you work so hard to bring this thing to you? Of course, because, I am sure and sure, after you see the contents of the box, everyone will cry."

"Do you believe it or not?" At this point, Eunuch Luo deliberately paused.

He used his cloudy eyes to scan the scene, and as expected, he saw faces showing fear or disbelief.

Young, after all, still young!

Shaking his head, he chuckled, knowing that the point of this lesson had come.

What you say is always a lie, but the palace has never been a benevolent place. In the name of training classes, beating people to make people recognize their own situation and what they should do in the future is the real meaning of this class!So...it is important to show everyone the real chapter directly.

Eunuch Luo casually selected a boy who looked tallest and strongest: "Come on, let me take a look... You, yes, it's you, come and help me distribute the boxes on the cart to everyone."

In an instant, everyone turned their attention to the person Eunuch Luo had pointed out.

Being accidentally pointed out, the tall and strong boy obviously did not expect it himself.

Looking at the cart, I found that each of the boxes above had a corresponding large white paper with words written on it in thick black ink.He even felt dizzy for a while, so he rubbed his hands, and as he walked out, he said, "This... Luo... Eunuch Luo, I can't read.Our village is poor, there is no school in the village, every household cannot give copper coins, and teachers who teach are unwilling to come to our village. "

But he only listened to Luo Gonggong: "It doesn't matter if you don't know each other. I want you to take the boxes off the cart one by one and put them in front of me. I will report the names, and those who hear their names will come up and get the boxes."

"So, that's the case." Realizing that he had misunderstood, the tall and strong boy scratched his head, and moved the box very obediently.

And his speed is also very fast.

Maybe he was used to doing chores at home, Zili thought, this tall and strong boy couldn't bear the other party's time.Sometimes when bringing the box to Eunuch Luo, when he heard someone raising his hand below, or directly indicating his name, he couldn't even wait for the other party to come forward, so he sent the box to the other party's place.

So the delivery of the box was much faster than Eunuch Luo expected.Not long after, everyone present got a big box with their names written on it, except Eunuch Luo.

Well, yes, this big box even has sublizards!

It's made of wood, painted with brown-red lacquer, square and about the size of two palms of an adult man, and looks quite elegant.

Zili thought it was pretty, so he held it in his hand and touched it.But because I was a little scared by what Luo Gonggong said, I didn't dare to open it to see what happened.

No one knew what mechanism was touched, and it was opened with a click.Zili was also taken aback by this!

But Zili quickly discovered one thing: [Hey, what was agreed to make people cry?But there is nothing in it? 】

This is really weird.

But something even stranger happened at this time, as expected, just as Eunuch Luo "prophesied". "Wow", Zili really heard crying around him!And the cries didn't just come from one place, with a loud sound, like the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, the cries came from every corner of the Changchun Palace one after another!

This... What is the situation?

The author has something to say: Zhou Yuye’s diary: (content will be added later by Zili)

The first class is the tradition of the eunuch training class over the years.

What you bury is actually something that is very important to you.

Zili probably only have an empty box, so first
