People who have been teased by me say they won't let me go [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 80 King's Landing (8)
When mentioning closeness, Gu Wang actually smiled, "It's between your brother and this king..."
"Uncle Emperor!" Xia Chengqi knew what he wanted to ask without finishing his sentence. After weighing the pros and cons, it was much more important to say something nice to make people happy.
Sure enough, when King Gu heard Xia Chengqi's thoughtless words, he laughed in a low voice, went to bed, hugged Xia Chengqi to his chest, put his chin against his head, and patted him on the back, "Truth?"
Xia Chengqi yawned, "Of course it's the truth, doesn't the emperor believe in Jinyu?"
"Believe it, Uncle Huang naturally believes it."
Xia Chengqi said carefully: "After that, can I study with my brother?"
Gu Wang caressed his thin back, one hand can cover the thin back horizontally, "Okay."
Xia Chengqi's eyes widened where King Gu couldn't see.
Agreed so soon?
There was a hint of a smile in Gu Wang's voice, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
"Happy!"
Xia Chengqi turned around slowly, the shadows were mottled under the vague candlelight, and he couldn't see his face hidden in the darkness clearly, only a pair of eyes that seemed to be more dazzling than the candlelight, facing King Gu, stared straight at him. look at him.
"Okay, don't talk anymore, it's getting late, go to bed quickly."
Gu Wang covered Xia Chengqi's bright eyes with one hand, and the long eyelashes flickered in the palm of his hand, itching, Gu Wang patted his back with one hand, and gently coaxed him to sleep.
The moon and stars are sparse, and it is suspected that the winter snow has not disappeared, and another thin layer has fallen.
The next day, Xia Chengqi never slept in for the first time, and got up early, while Bai Zhi was washing and dressing him, Xia Chengqi kept yelling to hurry up.
Bai Zhi put on a snow-white fox fur coat for him, Xia Chengqi couldn't wait to rush out as soon as he put it on, a group of people followed carefully and shouted, the snowy road is slippery, slow down.
But Xia Chengqi didn't care about this, he trotted all the way to Jinshen's courtyard, nothing happened all the way, but he fell at the gate of Jinshen's courtyard.
Coincidentally, the courtyard door opened, and Jinshen stood at the door, watching a group of people hurriedly help Xia Chengqi up. The ten-year-old child frowned like a little adult, and wanted to go forward, but stopped in his tracks. "What does it look like."
Xia Chengqi looked at Jinshen with his hands down, nodded obediently and said, "Jinyu knows, it won't be like this in the future."
Lu Fu knelt down on one side, looked at Xia Chengqi's frayed palms, a layer of skin was rubbed off, and the pink flesh was exposed, and he kept ordering, "Get the medicine quickly!"
Xia Chengqi withdrew his hand, Jinshen stepped forward and held his hand for a closer look, frowned silently, and said after a while: "Come in with me."
"it is good."
Xia Chengqi smiled and entered the courtyard with Jinshen.
Everywhere in Gu Wang's mansion is good, even the place where servants live is much cleaner and tidy. Although Gu Wang doesn't like Jinshen, there is no need to abuse a child in terms of basic necessities of life.
As soon as he entered the room, Lu Fu asked the servants to heat up the stove and the floor warmer. The servant who was going to get the medicine came in a while. Jin Shen got a little bit on his fingertips, and gently pushed it away and wiped it on Xia Chengqi's palm.
"Hiss—" Xia Chengqi frowned, the tingling sensation when the ointment was applied to the palm of his hand made him subconsciously want to withdraw his hand, but Jin Shen held it tightly.
"pain?"
Xia Chengqi nodded, tears of pain almost flew out.
Jinshen felt that he was too coquettish, but it was just a small scrap of skin. He thought that when he played swords and swords under his father's knee, he had countless injuries on his body, and he never paid attention to it.
Although he thought so, Jinshen's hand movements became more and more gentle, "It will be fine in a while."
Taking the medicine was like punishment, Xia Chengqi held back desperately, clenched his lower lip to bear the pain, the tip of his nose was red, and the tears in his eyes gradually turned red because of holding back the tears.
"All right."
A servant carefully wrapped his palm with gauze, Jin Shen took a look and said nothing.
"Brother, yesterday the uncle promised Jinyu to let my brother study with me. My brother has always been by my father's side, so he must be knowledgeable and talented."
Jin Shen glanced at him, "What about you, what books did you read when you were young?"
Xia Chengqi lowered his head and twitched, as if he couldn't lift his head in embarrassment, he hesitated and said: "Jinyu...Jinyu has never studied since she was a child."
Jin Shen frowned and asked, "Haven't you read a single book?"
Xia Chengqi shook his head.
"Then you must know some words."
Xia Chengqi shook his head again, "I don't know how to read."
Jinshen sat there looking at him, Xia Chengqi felt that the look in his eyes was a bit strange, but luckily it was used to cover up the fact that he was illiterate.
"Jinyu is illiterate and has never been to school. Does it make my brother feel bad?"
Jinshen said indifferently: "It's your business to read and write, and I..."
Jin Shen's words were stuck in his throat, but he didn't say it after all.
Lu Fu said respectfully outside: "Sir, the gentleman invited by the lord has come, and he is already in the study."
Xia Chengqi looked at Jinshen, his eyes were full of excitement, his eyes were full of brilliance, he couldn't bear to refuse.
"Let's go."
"it is good!"
Xia Chengqi held Jinshen's palm, feeling the soft touch. Jinshen looked down at the excited child, pursed his lips, and said nothing.
The wife who came to Gu Wang's mansion had white temples, she didn't have such a benign face, she had a serious face, she couldn't wait in the study for a long time, and her brows were so wrinkled that they could kill flies.
A burst of giggles sounded outside the study, and the master stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looked at the slow-moving child, and said in a deep voice, "You're just studying, but you're so slack!"
Both of them were startled by the Master's words, and they stood there without moving.
The master was furious when he saw it, "Don't come in yet!"
Lu Fu explained in a low voice: "Young master, that is the master, he is strict, please bear with me."
Walking into the study, Jin Shen bowed his head and apologized to the master, "Master, forgive me, the student is late."
Xia Chengqi suppressed the smile on his face, and followed Jin Shen's actions to apologize to the master.
The master snorted coldly, and pointed to the two seats in front of him, "You two sit down for now, let's forget about today's business, if you are so lazy next time, I don't care what your status is, the master has to wear the ruler."
The two bowed and said yes.
"You can call me Master Chen. Since you are my students, you have to learn to respect your teacher, understand?"
"Students understand."
Quite well-behaved, the anger on Master Chen's face disappeared a lot, and he started teaching after learning about the situation of Jinyu and Jinshen.
Mrs. Chen was old-fashioned and pedantic. After a day's study, Xia Chengqi was really miserable. He sat on his seat and dared not move, his waist almost broke.
After school, he lay on the bed with Bai Zhi rubbing his waist behind him.
"The young master wants to invite the imperial physician to come and take a look."
Xia Chengqi was feeling comfortable under the quilt, and said, "No need, it's just that my waist is a little sore."
"Young master is tired today."
Xia Chengqi didn't speak.
Suddenly, Bai Zhi stopped massaging herself, Xia Chengqi arched her body, "Why didn't Sister Bai Zhi stop pressing?"
A pair of hands came together again, and the strength was obviously much stronger.
Xia Chengqi turned his head and saw Gu Wangzhen standing behind him rubbing his waist.
"Why, I haven't seen you for a day, and I can't even get up?"
Xia Chengqi sat up aggrieved, rubbed his waist carefully with one hand, and asked cautiously and pitifully: "Uncle Huang, can you change your master."
"Change your master? This master is a man of profound knowledge. If it weren't for this king, he would not be able to invite him."
Xia Chengqi muttered, "It's too strict."
King Gu didn't hear what he was saying, his eyes were all on Xia Chengqi's gauze-wrapped hands, "What's wrong?"
Xia Chengqi raised his small hands, raised his face, and said, "I just fell and scratched my skin."
Gu Wang lowered his eyebrows and looked at him helplessly, "Can't you be more careful?"
"The snowy road is too slippery, so I didn't pay attention for a while."
Seeing Xia Chengqi's listless appearance, Gu Wang didn't want to ask any more, "Okay, since I'm tired today, I'll have a good sleep first, and the emperor will call you for dinner."
"Okay!" After a day of class, he was really tired, and his frail body couldn't stand it.
King Gu walked out of the hall, looked at the respectful Eunuch Lu, and asked, "How did Jinyu get the injury on his hand?"
Eunuch Lu didn't dare to hide it, and quickly said: "Returning to the prince, it's the slave's fault. I didn't protect the young master well, and let the young master fall on the road."
"Falled?"
Eunuch Lu added: "Young master got up in the morning and rushed to Dongyuan, that's why he fell."
King Gu didn't speak, he stood at the gate of the palace and looked in the direction of Dongyuan, his eyes were dim.
"Understood, let's go down."
"Yes."
Gu Wang stood with his hands behind his back, his fists clenched tightly, and a stern look flashed across his eyes.
The next day, Xia Chengqi had eaten breakfast, so he went to the study without any delay. After yesterday, he didn't dare to keep the master waiting, but before he entered the study, he could faintly hear the sound of scolding and slapping in the study. Cheng Qi hurriedly walked in and saw that Jin Shen was standing in front of the master with his head bowed, and stretched his hands forward.
The master had a ruler in one hand and a book in the other. After saying a word, he laid a ruler on Jinshen's hand.
"Children can't be taught. You didn't memorize the homework you were asked to recite yesterday, and you didn't write what you were asked to copy. I saw that you thought you were a motivated and studious person, but you turned out to be such a lazy person!"
Seeing Jinshen's palms were red and swollen, Xia Chengqi hurried forward and pulled Jinshen behind him, "Why did you hit my brother!"
Master Chen was trembling with anger, and he pointed at Xia Chengqi with a ruler and trembled, "You two are really...you can't teach a child! You can't teach a child!"
After all, there is a saying that a child cannot be taught.
Xia Chengqi turned around, looked at Jinshen's palm, and asked, "Does it hurt, brother?"
Jinshen didn't have any extra expressions, lowered his head and lowered his brows, and shook his head with a resigned look, "I'm fine."
"How can it be okay, it's all red and swollen!" Xia Chengqi bowed his head and said twice to his palm, "It won't hurt anymore, brother, bear with me, I'll ask Lu Fu to get you the medicine."
"Presumptuous!" Master Chen slapped the edge of the table heavily with a ruler, "Screaming in front of the teacher, you don't understand etiquette at all, you can't teach a child!"
Xia Chengqi turned around and glared, "What did my brother do, you want to beat him like this!"
"What are you doing? Can't I punish him if he doesn't write well and doesn't memorize his homework?"
Xia Chengqi had long thought that this pedantic teacher was not pleasing to his eyes, so he retorted, "You are talking nonsense! My brother is so knowledgeable, how could he not be able to write well? Either you are picky, or you are yourself Bad knowledge!"
This is simply a blatant insult, Master Chen was furious, pointing at Xia Chengqi, "You little brat, how dare you look down on this old man, you... you can't teach a child!"
"You are a child who can't be taught! You can be taught as a child, so you can beat people casually?"
"It's the other way around!" Mrs. Chen was enraged by Xia Chengqi's words, "I can't teach a student like you, I'm going back to my lord right now, you...you really..."
Seeing that he couldn't speak well when he was angry, Xia Chengqi said for him word by word, "You can't teach a child!"
Master Chen said hello a few times, and immediately walked out of the study.
Xia Chengqi didn't care whether he was looking for King Gu or what, seeing that Eunuch Lu brought the ointment over, he also applied the ointment to him just like how Jinshen applied the ointment to himself that day.
"Brother, does it hurt?"
Jin Shen lowered his eyebrows and did not speak.
"I'll blow it for you, it won't hurt anymore." Xia Chengqi lowered his head and leaned closer, pursed his mouth and blew gently on the palm of his hand. Xia Chengqi felt that his cheeks were hurting a little, so he raised his head, caught off guard. There seemed to be tears in Jinshen's eyes, but when he looked carefully, he lowered his head again.
"Brother, what's the matter? Does it still hurt?"
Jinshen raised his head, he had nothing else in his eyes, and said nonchalantly, "It doesn't hurt."
"How could it not hurt, it's all swollen..."
Eunuch Lu said anxiously at the side: "My little ancestor, think about yourself first, Master Chen has already gone to the prince, if the prince..."
Xia Chengqi was not timid, "I'm not afraid of him, you go outside and guard first, I'm going to apply medicine to brother."
I don't know who this 'he' refers to.
Eunuch Lu had no choice but to back out.
Jinshen looked at his palm covered with ointment, looked at Xia Chengqi thoughtfully, and said after a long time: "This is my own fault, Mr. Chen is right, it is my child who cannot be taught."
"How could it be! My brother is so knowledgeable, rich in learning, and full of knowledge, it must be Mr. Chen who is picky, trying to make things difficult for brother!"
Jinshen smiled, "How do you know that I'm well-educated and full of knowledge?"
Xia Chengqi raised his head and said firmly: "I knew it, brother, you only read the article once and recited it, I heard it all, so I know that brother must be the best!"
Jinshen laughed, looking at the unmelted snow outside the window, he didn't speak for a long time.
Xia Chengqi continued to apply medicine for him, and then said with his palms covered, "Brother, remember not to get wet today."
Jin Shen shook his head and laughed, "Understood."
After finishing speaking, he said: "Promise me one thing?"
"what's up?"
"Don't tell others about my knowledge, okay?"
Xia Chengqi understood that he was hiding his clumsiness.
Tilting his head on purpose, he asked puzzledly, "Why? Wouldn't it be nice to surprise that old pedant?"
"No, in this way, more people will dislike me. Do you hope more people will dislike me?"
Xia Chengqi sighed secretly, the royal people who have no power and power live their lives with great care every day, it is really hard work for them to think for a long time when they are only ten years old.
"No, I hope everyone likes brother."
"Is that a promise to brother?"
"Well, I will definitely keep a secret for my brother!"
As soon as Xia Chengqi finished speaking, Father Lu's voice sounded outside the door, "Young master, the lord ordered you two to go to the main hall."
Xia Chengqi patted his chest to reassure, "Don't be afraid, brother, I will protect you."
That determined little appearance really makes people laugh.
Jin Shen said, "Okay."
Xia Chengqi smiled at him with satisfaction, held his hand and walked out.When they arrived at the main hall, Chen Fuzi sat on one side with an angry expression on his face, and Gu Wang sat on the top with his leisure, staring at him with fixed eyebrows.
"Jinyu has seen Uncle Huang."
"Jin Shen met King Gu."
Gu Wang looked at the two of them coldly, his brows brimming with anger, he curled his fingers, his knuckles lightly clasped on the edge of the table, and said to the two children standing below: "What's going on."
There was something wrong with the tone.
No one spoke.
"Jinyu!"
Jinyu shrunk her neck, the lofty ambition just now was instantly dissipated by Gu Wang's two words, and she whispered in a very useless voice: "Jinyu saw Master Chen hitting his brother with a ruler, so she was a little angry , Contradicting Master Chen a few words."
King Gu's voice rose a little, and he said in a deep voice, "Didn't this king tell you the truth about respecting teachers?"
"I told you..."
"Have you said that you still don't respect the teacher?"
Xia Chengqi swallowed, looked at Jinshen who was silent on one side, and said with a straight neck: "Uncle, you taught Jinyu the principle of respecting teachers, but respecting teachers is respectful and virtuous." A teacher who is as pedantic as Master Chen who only knows how to beat people, why should Jinyu respect him."
Adding fuel to the flames is simply courting death.
"Presumptuous! Still haven't apologized to Master!"
Xia Chengqi continued to fire, "I'm not wrong, why should I apologize."
King Gu looked at him, and suddenly raised his voice: "Come here!"
Jinshen hurriedly took a step forward, "My lord, this incident happened because of me. It's Jinshen's fault. It's because Jinshen didn't memorize his homework yesterday and didn't finish his homework. That's why Mr. Chen was so angry. Jinyu just never saw him before." Being slapped on the palm by the master, it's just a moment of indiscretion, but in fact, Jinyu has always respected Master Chen in her heart."
King Gu looked at him coldly.
Jinshen gave Jinyu winks again and again, and Jinyu understood that if she didn't bow her head and admit her mistake today, she would be the one to suffer.
Evil feudal society!
"Uncle, I was wrong."
Originally thought that Gu Wang should calm down, but Xia Chengqi felt that Gu Wang's face became more and more ugly.
"Who are you to apologize to?"
Xia Chengqi turned to Master Chen, bowed his head and apologized, "Master Chen, it was Jinyu who made a mistake, please don't argue with Jinyu."
Master Chen snorted coldly and ignored him.
Xia Chengqi stood there muttering, must I kneel down and pour tea to admit my mistake?
Master Chen of the Gu Dynasty smiled and said: "Master Chen, since Jinyu knows that she is wrong, it is better to let this matter go. In fact, in the final analysis, this matter is still the fault of this king. It is because this king has never been good at teaching others."
When King Gu spoke, Master Chen had to calm down even if he was extremely angry. He stood up and cupped his hands and said, "My lord, it's not that the old man deliberately made things difficult, but the little emperor's grandson's temper. It's really time to change."
King Gu nodded and said, "I understand."
"Since that's the case, let's forget about this matter. The old man's college has a lot of business, and I'm afraid I won't have time to come to the palace to give lectures to the little emperor's grandson tomorrow."
King Gu smiled and said, "Then, when Master Chen Academy's affairs are over, I'll go and ask for advice."
"My lord is too polite, the old man will leave first."
King Gu didn't force him to stay, "Come here, send me off."
Eunuch Lu personally led Mr. Chen out of the palace gate. For a while, the hall was silent.
The atmosphere was a bit dignified and awkward, Xia Chengqi guessed that Gu Wang should not be trifled with now, so he stood there with low eyebrows and said nothing.
Seeing this situation, King Gu sneered, "You guys are acting nice now."
"Jinyu knew he was wrong."
"Wrong? The king didn't see that he was wrong. Tonight you two will be fined not to have dinner, so reflect on yourself."
Xia Chengqi heaved a sigh of relief and just skipped dinner.
"Yes."
The two retreated one after another, Gu Wang looked at the backs of the two standing side by side, and said loudly: "Come on, grind!"
At night, this was the first time that Xia Chengqi didn't sleep in King Gu's bedroom, but slept in the small courtyard originally prepared for him. When he was half asleep and half awake, he heard someone calling him softly at the door.
He didn't eat dinner, he was so hungry and didn't fall asleep much, got out of bed when he heard the sound, opened the door, and saw that it was the little eunuch serving Jinshen, San Fu.
Xia Chengqi rubbed his eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"
Sanfu hurriedly knelt in front of him and kowtowed, "I beg the little grandson to save my young master."
Xia Chengqi woke up instantly, "What's wrong with your son?"
Sanfu broke down in tears, and cried out: "My lord said that my young master led you to death, and asked my young master to kneel outside the hall to reflect. He has been kneeling for two or three hours now. It is cold in the snow. If you kneel badly What can I do?"
Xia Chengqi put on his cloak and went out, how could the few servants in his courtyard stop him, taking advantage of the moonlight, he rushed straight towards the main hall.
Jin Shen was still kneeling outside the main hall, his slightly bowed shoulders seemed to be covered with a layer of snow, his face was pale and trembling all over, Xia Chengqi wanted to pull him up, but Jin Shen remained motionless.
Xia Chengqi knew that in this Prince Gu's residence, King Gu could speak well.
Stepping into the palace, King Gu was just writing a note, Xia Chengqi didn't dare to make mistakes like before, and sincerely admitted his mistake, "Uncle Huang, Jin Yu is all at fault for what happened today, why did Uncle Huang punish Brother? "
"This king made a mistake? He is older than you, so he shouldn't be punished if he sees you messing around and doesn't stop and teach him?"
Xia Chengqi still wanted to argue, but Gu Wang said: "If you say one more word, he will kneel for an extra hour."
Xia Chengqi didn't dare to speak for a moment. He watched King Gu enter the inner hall, and felt a little pitiful when he saw the small figure at the door of the hall. He turned around and walked to the door of the hall. He rubbed his hands and held the back of his hand. , whispered: "Brother, are you still in pain?"
Jin Shen lowered his eyebrows and remained motionless.
Seeing that the corners of his mouth were turning white, Xia Chengqi untied his cloak, covered him, half-kneeled in front of him, wrapped his arms around him tightly, let him rest his chin on his shoulder, and patted his back, He said softly, "Brother, are you still cold?"
The motionless body finally reacted slightly, trembling slightly, Xia Chengqi clearly heard a choked sob, a bean-sized teardrop slipped into his neck, scalding hot.
"Uncle Emperor!" Xia Chengqi knew what he wanted to ask without finishing his sentence. After weighing the pros and cons, it was much more important to say something nice to make people happy.
Sure enough, when King Gu heard Xia Chengqi's thoughtless words, he laughed in a low voice, went to bed, hugged Xia Chengqi to his chest, put his chin against his head, and patted him on the back, "Truth?"
Xia Chengqi yawned, "Of course it's the truth, doesn't the emperor believe in Jinyu?"
"Believe it, Uncle Huang naturally believes it."
Xia Chengqi said carefully: "After that, can I study with my brother?"
Gu Wang caressed his thin back, one hand can cover the thin back horizontally, "Okay."
Xia Chengqi's eyes widened where King Gu couldn't see.
Agreed so soon?
There was a hint of a smile in Gu Wang's voice, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
"Happy!"
Xia Chengqi turned around slowly, the shadows were mottled under the vague candlelight, and he couldn't see his face hidden in the darkness clearly, only a pair of eyes that seemed to be more dazzling than the candlelight, facing King Gu, stared straight at him. look at him.
"Okay, don't talk anymore, it's getting late, go to bed quickly."
Gu Wang covered Xia Chengqi's bright eyes with one hand, and the long eyelashes flickered in the palm of his hand, itching, Gu Wang patted his back with one hand, and gently coaxed him to sleep.
The moon and stars are sparse, and it is suspected that the winter snow has not disappeared, and another thin layer has fallen.
The next day, Xia Chengqi never slept in for the first time, and got up early, while Bai Zhi was washing and dressing him, Xia Chengqi kept yelling to hurry up.
Bai Zhi put on a snow-white fox fur coat for him, Xia Chengqi couldn't wait to rush out as soon as he put it on, a group of people followed carefully and shouted, the snowy road is slippery, slow down.
But Xia Chengqi didn't care about this, he trotted all the way to Jinshen's courtyard, nothing happened all the way, but he fell at the gate of Jinshen's courtyard.
Coincidentally, the courtyard door opened, and Jinshen stood at the door, watching a group of people hurriedly help Xia Chengqi up. The ten-year-old child frowned like a little adult, and wanted to go forward, but stopped in his tracks. "What does it look like."
Xia Chengqi looked at Jinshen with his hands down, nodded obediently and said, "Jinyu knows, it won't be like this in the future."
Lu Fu knelt down on one side, looked at Xia Chengqi's frayed palms, a layer of skin was rubbed off, and the pink flesh was exposed, and he kept ordering, "Get the medicine quickly!"
Xia Chengqi withdrew his hand, Jinshen stepped forward and held his hand for a closer look, frowned silently, and said after a while: "Come in with me."
"it is good."
Xia Chengqi smiled and entered the courtyard with Jinshen.
Everywhere in Gu Wang's mansion is good, even the place where servants live is much cleaner and tidy. Although Gu Wang doesn't like Jinshen, there is no need to abuse a child in terms of basic necessities of life.
As soon as he entered the room, Lu Fu asked the servants to heat up the stove and the floor warmer. The servant who was going to get the medicine came in a while. Jin Shen got a little bit on his fingertips, and gently pushed it away and wiped it on Xia Chengqi's palm.
"Hiss—" Xia Chengqi frowned, the tingling sensation when the ointment was applied to the palm of his hand made him subconsciously want to withdraw his hand, but Jin Shen held it tightly.
"pain?"
Xia Chengqi nodded, tears of pain almost flew out.
Jinshen felt that he was too coquettish, but it was just a small scrap of skin. He thought that when he played swords and swords under his father's knee, he had countless injuries on his body, and he never paid attention to it.
Although he thought so, Jinshen's hand movements became more and more gentle, "It will be fine in a while."
Taking the medicine was like punishment, Xia Chengqi held back desperately, clenched his lower lip to bear the pain, the tip of his nose was red, and the tears in his eyes gradually turned red because of holding back the tears.
"All right."
A servant carefully wrapped his palm with gauze, Jin Shen took a look and said nothing.
"Brother, yesterday the uncle promised Jinyu to let my brother study with me. My brother has always been by my father's side, so he must be knowledgeable and talented."
Jin Shen glanced at him, "What about you, what books did you read when you were young?"
Xia Chengqi lowered his head and twitched, as if he couldn't lift his head in embarrassment, he hesitated and said: "Jinyu...Jinyu has never studied since she was a child."
Jin Shen frowned and asked, "Haven't you read a single book?"

Jinshen said indifferently: "It's your business to read and write, and I..."
Jin Shen's words were stuck in his throat, but he didn't say it after all.
Lu Fu said respectfully outside: "Sir, the gentleman invited by the lord has come, and he is already in the study."
Xia Chengqi looked at Jinshen, his eyes were full of excitement, his eyes were full of brilliance, he couldn't bear to refuse.
"Let's go."
"it is good!"
Xia Chengqi held Jinshen's palm, feeling the soft touch. Jinshen looked down at the excited child, pursed his lips, and said nothing.
The wife who came to Gu Wang's mansion had white temples, she didn't have such a benign face, she had a serious face, she couldn't wait in the study for a long time, and her brows were so wrinkled that they could kill flies.
A burst of giggles sounded outside the study, and the master stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looked at the slow-moving child, and said in a deep voice, "You're just studying, but you're so slack!"
Both of them were startled by the Master's words, and they stood there without moving.
The master was furious when he saw it, "Don't come in yet!"
Lu Fu explained in a low voice: "Young master, that is the master, he is strict, please bear with me."
Walking into the study, Jin Shen bowed his head and apologized to the master, "Master, forgive me, the student is late."
Xia Chengqi suppressed the smile on his face, and followed Jin Shen's actions to apologize to the master.
The master snorted coldly, and pointed to the two seats in front of him, "You two sit down for now, let's forget about today's business, if you are so lazy next time, I don't care what your status is, the master has to wear the ruler."
The two bowed and said yes.
"You can call me Master Chen. Since you are my students, you have to learn to respect your teacher, understand?"
"Students understand."
Quite well-behaved, the anger on Master Chen's face disappeared a lot, and he started teaching after learning about the situation of Jinyu and Jinshen.
Mrs. Chen was old-fashioned and pedantic. After a day's study, Xia Chengqi was really miserable. He sat on his seat and dared not move, his waist almost broke.
After school, he lay on the bed with Bai Zhi rubbing his waist behind him.
"The young master wants to invite the imperial physician to come and take a look."

"Young master is tired today."
Xia Chengqi didn't speak.
Suddenly, Bai Zhi stopped massaging herself, Xia Chengqi arched her body, "Why didn't Sister Bai Zhi stop pressing?"
A pair of hands came together again, and the strength was obviously much stronger.
Xia Chengqi turned his head and saw Gu Wangzhen standing behind him rubbing his waist.
"Why, I haven't seen you for a day, and I can't even get up?"
Xia Chengqi sat up aggrieved, rubbed his waist carefully with one hand, and asked cautiously and pitifully: "Uncle Huang, can you change your master."
"Change your master? This master is a man of profound knowledge. If it weren't for this king, he would not be able to invite him."
Xia Chengqi muttered, "It's too strict."
King Gu didn't hear what he was saying, his eyes were all on Xia Chengqi's gauze-wrapped hands, "What's wrong?"
Xia Chengqi raised his small hands, raised his face, and said, "I just fell and scratched my skin."
Gu Wang lowered his eyebrows and looked at him helplessly, "Can't you be more careful?"
"The snowy road is too slippery, so I didn't pay attention for a while."
Seeing Xia Chengqi's listless appearance, Gu Wang didn't want to ask any more, "Okay, since I'm tired today, I'll have a good sleep first, and the emperor will call you for dinner."
"Okay!" After a day of class, he was really tired, and his frail body couldn't stand it.
King Gu walked out of the hall, looked at the respectful Eunuch Lu, and asked, "How did Jinyu get the injury on his hand?"
Eunuch Lu didn't dare to hide it, and quickly said: "Returning to the prince, it's the slave's fault. I didn't protect the young master well, and let the young master fall on the road."
"Falled?"
Eunuch Lu added: "Young master got up in the morning and rushed to Dongyuan, that's why he fell."
King Gu didn't speak, he stood at the gate of the palace and looked in the direction of Dongyuan, his eyes were dim.
"Understood, let's go down."
"Yes."
Gu Wang stood with his hands behind his back, his fists clenched tightly, and a stern look flashed across his eyes.
The next day, Xia Chengqi had eaten breakfast, so he went to the study without any delay. After yesterday, he didn't dare to keep the master waiting, but before he entered the study, he could faintly hear the sound of scolding and slapping in the study. Cheng Qi hurriedly walked in and saw that Jin Shen was standing in front of the master with his head bowed, and stretched his hands forward.
The master had a ruler in one hand and a book in the other. After saying a word, he laid a ruler on Jinshen's hand.
"Children can't be taught. You didn't memorize the homework you were asked to recite yesterday, and you didn't write what you were asked to copy. I saw that you thought you were a motivated and studious person, but you turned out to be such a lazy person!"
Seeing Jinshen's palms were red and swollen, Xia Chengqi hurried forward and pulled Jinshen behind him, "Why did you hit my brother!"
Master Chen was trembling with anger, and he pointed at Xia Chengqi with a ruler and trembled, "You two are really...you can't teach a child! You can't teach a child!"
After all, there is a saying that a child cannot be taught.
Xia Chengqi turned around, looked at Jinshen's palm, and asked, "Does it hurt, brother?"
Jinshen didn't have any extra expressions, lowered his head and lowered his brows, and shook his head with a resigned look, "I'm fine."
"How can it be okay, it's all red and swollen!" Xia Chengqi bowed his head and said twice to his palm, "It won't hurt anymore, brother, bear with me, I'll ask Lu Fu to get you the medicine."
"Presumptuous!" Master Chen slapped the edge of the table heavily with a ruler, "Screaming in front of the teacher, you don't understand etiquette at all, you can't teach a child!"
Xia Chengqi turned around and glared, "What did my brother do, you want to beat him like this!"
"What are you doing? Can't I punish him if he doesn't write well and doesn't memorize his homework?"
Xia Chengqi had long thought that this pedantic teacher was not pleasing to his eyes, so he retorted, "You are talking nonsense! My brother is so knowledgeable, how could he not be able to write well? Either you are picky, or you are yourself Bad knowledge!"
This is simply a blatant insult, Master Chen was furious, pointing at Xia Chengqi, "You little brat, how dare you look down on this old man, you... you can't teach a child!"
"You are a child who can't be taught! You can be taught as a child, so you can beat people casually?"
"It's the other way around!" Mrs. Chen was enraged by Xia Chengqi's words, "I can't teach a student like you, I'm going back to my lord right now, you...you really..."
Seeing that he couldn't speak well when he was angry, Xia Chengqi said for him word by word, "You can't teach a child!"
Master Chen said hello a few times, and immediately walked out of the study.
Xia Chengqi didn't care whether he was looking for King Gu or what, seeing that Eunuch Lu brought the ointment over, he also applied the ointment to him just like how Jinshen applied the ointment to himself that day.
"Brother, does it hurt?"
Jin Shen lowered his eyebrows and did not speak.
"I'll blow it for you, it won't hurt anymore." Xia Chengqi lowered his head and leaned closer, pursed his mouth and blew gently on the palm of his hand. Xia Chengqi felt that his cheeks were hurting a little, so he raised his head, caught off guard. There seemed to be tears in Jinshen's eyes, but when he looked carefully, he lowered his head again.
"Brother, what's the matter? Does it still hurt?"
Jinshen raised his head, he had nothing else in his eyes, and said nonchalantly, "It doesn't hurt."
"How could it not hurt, it's all swollen..."
Eunuch Lu said anxiously at the side: "My little ancestor, think about yourself first, Master Chen has already gone to the prince, if the prince..."
Xia Chengqi was not timid, "I'm not afraid of him, you go outside and guard first, I'm going to apply medicine to brother."
I don't know who this 'he' refers to.
Eunuch Lu had no choice but to back out.
Jinshen looked at his palm covered with ointment, looked at Xia Chengqi thoughtfully, and said after a long time: "This is my own fault, Mr. Chen is right, it is my child who cannot be taught."
"How could it be! My brother is so knowledgeable, rich in learning, and full of knowledge, it must be Mr. Chen who is picky, trying to make things difficult for brother!"
Jinshen smiled, "How do you know that I'm well-educated and full of knowledge?"
Xia Chengqi raised his head and said firmly: "I knew it, brother, you only read the article once and recited it, I heard it all, so I know that brother must be the best!"
Jinshen laughed, looking at the unmelted snow outside the window, he didn't speak for a long time.
Xia Chengqi continued to apply medicine for him, and then said with his palms covered, "Brother, remember not to get wet today."
Jin Shen shook his head and laughed, "Understood."
After finishing speaking, he said: "Promise me one thing?"
"what's up?"
"Don't tell others about my knowledge, okay?"
Xia Chengqi understood that he was hiding his clumsiness.
Tilting his head on purpose, he asked puzzledly, "Why? Wouldn't it be nice to surprise that old pedant?"
"No, in this way, more people will dislike me. Do you hope more people will dislike me?"
Xia Chengqi sighed secretly, the royal people who have no power and power live their lives with great care every day, it is really hard work for them to think for a long time when they are only ten years old.
"No, I hope everyone likes brother."
"Is that a promise to brother?"
"Well, I will definitely keep a secret for my brother!"
As soon as Xia Chengqi finished speaking, Father Lu's voice sounded outside the door, "Young master, the lord ordered you two to go to the main hall."
Xia Chengqi patted his chest to reassure, "Don't be afraid, brother, I will protect you."
That determined little appearance really makes people laugh.
Jin Shen said, "Okay."
Xia Chengqi smiled at him with satisfaction, held his hand and walked out.When they arrived at the main hall, Chen Fuzi sat on one side with an angry expression on his face, and Gu Wang sat on the top with his leisure, staring at him with fixed eyebrows.
"Jinyu has seen Uncle Huang."
"Jin Shen met King Gu."
Gu Wang looked at the two of them coldly, his brows brimming with anger, he curled his fingers, his knuckles lightly clasped on the edge of the table, and said to the two children standing below: "What's going on."
There was something wrong with the tone.
No one spoke.
"Jinyu!"
Jinyu shrunk her neck, the lofty ambition just now was instantly dissipated by Gu Wang's two words, and she whispered in a very useless voice: "Jinyu saw Master Chen hitting his brother with a ruler, so she was a little angry , Contradicting Master Chen a few words."
King Gu's voice rose a little, and he said in a deep voice, "Didn't this king tell you the truth about respecting teachers?"
"I told you..."
"Have you said that you still don't respect the teacher?"
Xia Chengqi swallowed, looked at Jinshen who was silent on one side, and said with a straight neck: "Uncle, you taught Jinyu the principle of respecting teachers, but respecting teachers is respectful and virtuous." A teacher who is as pedantic as Master Chen who only knows how to beat people, why should Jinyu respect him."
Adding fuel to the flames is simply courting death.
"Presumptuous! Still haven't apologized to Master!"
Xia Chengqi continued to fire, "I'm not wrong, why should I apologize."
King Gu looked at him, and suddenly raised his voice: "Come here!"
Jinshen hurriedly took a step forward, "My lord, this incident happened because of me. It's Jinshen's fault. It's because Jinshen didn't memorize his homework yesterday and didn't finish his homework. That's why Mr. Chen was so angry. Jinyu just never saw him before." Being slapped on the palm by the master, it's just a moment of indiscretion, but in fact, Jinyu has always respected Master Chen in her heart."
King Gu looked at him coldly.
Jinshen gave Jinyu winks again and again, and Jinyu understood that if she didn't bow her head and admit her mistake today, she would be the one to suffer.
Evil feudal society!
"Uncle, I was wrong."
Originally thought that Gu Wang should calm down, but Xia Chengqi felt that Gu Wang's face became more and more ugly.
"Who are you to apologize to?"
Xia Chengqi turned to Master Chen, bowed his head and apologized, "Master Chen, it was Jinyu who made a mistake, please don't argue with Jinyu."
Master Chen snorted coldly and ignored him.
Xia Chengqi stood there muttering, must I kneel down and pour tea to admit my mistake?
Master Chen of the Gu Dynasty smiled and said: "Master Chen, since Jinyu knows that she is wrong, it is better to let this matter go. In fact, in the final analysis, this matter is still the fault of this king. It is because this king has never been good at teaching others."
When King Gu spoke, Master Chen had to calm down even if he was extremely angry. He stood up and cupped his hands and said, "My lord, it's not that the old man deliberately made things difficult, but the little emperor's grandson's temper. It's really time to change."
King Gu nodded and said, "I understand."
"Since that's the case, let's forget about this matter. The old man's college has a lot of business, and I'm afraid I won't have time to come to the palace to give lectures to the little emperor's grandson tomorrow."
King Gu smiled and said, "Then, when Master Chen Academy's affairs are over, I'll go and ask for advice."
"My lord is too polite, the old man will leave first."
King Gu didn't force him to stay, "Come here, send me off."
Eunuch Lu personally led Mr. Chen out of the palace gate. For a while, the hall was silent.
The atmosphere was a bit dignified and awkward, Xia Chengqi guessed that Gu Wang should not be trifled with now, so he stood there with low eyebrows and said nothing.
Seeing this situation, King Gu sneered, "You guys are acting nice now."
"Jinyu knew he was wrong."
"Wrong? The king didn't see that he was wrong. Tonight you two will be fined not to have dinner, so reflect on yourself."
Xia Chengqi heaved a sigh of relief and just skipped dinner.
"Yes."
The two retreated one after another, Gu Wang looked at the backs of the two standing side by side, and said loudly: "Come on, grind!"
At night, this was the first time that Xia Chengqi didn't sleep in King Gu's bedroom, but slept in the small courtyard originally prepared for him. When he was half asleep and half awake, he heard someone calling him softly at the door.
He didn't eat dinner, he was so hungry and didn't fall asleep much, got out of bed when he heard the sound, opened the door, and saw that it was the little eunuch serving Jinshen, San Fu.
Xia Chengqi rubbed his eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"
Sanfu hurriedly knelt in front of him and kowtowed, "I beg the little grandson to save my young master."
Xia Chengqi woke up instantly, "What's wrong with your son?"
Sanfu broke down in tears, and cried out: "My lord said that my young master led you to death, and asked my young master to kneel outside the hall to reflect. He has been kneeling for two or three hours now. It is cold in the snow. If you kneel badly What can I do?"
Xia Chengqi put on his cloak and went out, how could the few servants in his courtyard stop him, taking advantage of the moonlight, he rushed straight towards the main hall.
Jin Shen was still kneeling outside the main hall, his slightly bowed shoulders seemed to be covered with a layer of snow, his face was pale and trembling all over, Xia Chengqi wanted to pull him up, but Jin Shen remained motionless.
Xia Chengqi knew that in this Prince Gu's residence, King Gu could speak well.
Stepping into the palace, King Gu was just writing a note, Xia Chengqi didn't dare to make mistakes like before, and sincerely admitted his mistake, "Uncle Huang, Jin Yu is all at fault for what happened today, why did Uncle Huang punish Brother? "
"This king made a mistake? He is older than you, so he shouldn't be punished if he sees you messing around and doesn't stop and teach him?"
Xia Chengqi still wanted to argue, but Gu Wang said: "If you say one more word, he will kneel for an extra hour."
Xia Chengqi didn't dare to speak for a moment. He watched King Gu enter the inner hall, and felt a little pitiful when he saw the small figure at the door of the hall. He turned around and walked to the door of the hall. He rubbed his hands and held the back of his hand. , whispered: "Brother, are you still in pain?"
Jin Shen lowered his eyebrows and remained motionless.
Seeing that the corners of his mouth were turning white, Xia Chengqi untied his cloak, covered him, half-kneeled in front of him, wrapped his arms around him tightly, let him rest his chin on his shoulder, and patted his back, He said softly, "Brother, are you still cold?"
The motionless body finally reacted slightly, trembling slightly, Xia Chengqi clearly heard a choked sob, a bean-sized teardrop slipped into his neck, scalding hot.
