Clan House

Chapter 71 Father and Daughter

Zhu Qiyou couldn't answer his daughter's question. He never liked to study these matters, and he was not clear about the specific requirements of the scriptures.In my impression, the "gentleman" has always been judged by virtue in the scriptures, and it does not limit men and women.However, in reality, most of the women who are called "Jun" come from the wind and dust, and the real noble women do not judge together with the scholar-officials, but judge their conduct by "virtuous".

He didn't want his daughter to suffer from etiquette, and he didn't mind releasing these constraints for her: "Daddy thinks it's okay."

But the child said: "King Wu said: 'I have ten rebellious ministers.' Confucius said: 'It's hard, isn't it natural? At the time of Tang and Yu, it was prosperous here; there are women, just nine people. Three parts of the world The second is to serve Yin.’ Mr. said that the woman refers to Taisi, and Confucius said that Taisi is a woman, so she can’t be regarded as a talent for governing the country. The daughter thought that since King Wu counted Taisi among the ten capable ministers Among them, the Taisi should have done many things for King Wu, why is it that just because he is a woman, what she did is not counted? Confucius said: 'There are only nine people', my daughter doesn't understand."

Zhu Qiyou was left speechless by the question. The sentence in "The Analects of Confucius" was a bit uncommon, and he didn't even have the impression that his daughter could recite it so fluently.

"Maybe Confucius made a mistake." Zhu Qiyou explained dryly.

The child frowned: "Jing Ye can be wrong, my daughter doesn't believe him, but can a sage also be wrong?"

Zhu Qiyou smiled wryly, and finally couldn't pretend anymore and made a gesture of forgiveness: "My good boy, please forgive your father soon. Dad is a military commander, but he really doesn't understand the way of life. Have you asked this question, sir?"

"I have asked," the child pouted, "Mr. said that a woman should be content with her husband and children in the inner house, and should not interfere with the affairs of the court. At the time of King Wu, the Zhou Dynasty was first established, and everything was complicated. Taisi assisted King Wu in handling the affairs of the court. , it’s just a stopgap measure, and it’s not good to publicize it.”

Zhu Qiyou scratched his head, feeling that what the husband said was not unreasonable.He observed his daughter's expression and knew that this was not the answer the child wanted. "Daddy really can't think of anything, how about this," Zhu Qiyou said, "Since His Majesty punished you for copying, then you should write down the questions in your mind while copying and present them to Your Majesty, so that His Majesty can answer your questions. Your Majesty is very knowledgeable, Definitely can answer."

"But, Your Majesty didn't ask me to write my experience to him." The child asked uncertainly.

"Your Majesty didn't give orders, but you thought too much to prove that you didn't copy in vain." Zhu Qiyou said encouragingly, "It's too late for Your Majesty to reward you, so I definitely won't dislike you."

Zhu Qiyou persuaded her for a long time, and finally persuaded her daughter.Seeing that Caiqing had taken her clothes and came out to help the girl wash up, Zhu Qiyou turned around and walked out.But the child behind him sighed again: "I have to write again, I haven't finished copying the punishment yet!"

Zhu Qiyou sighed amusedly, went back to his dormitory, changed his clothes, and led the child to greet Lord Hou and his wife.

Just because Zhu Qiyou was not able to be raised in the Hou's mansion since he was a child, and he was the prince for several years, the Marquis of Yongding was too polite to this lost and found son.Zhu Qiyou has been back to the mansion for several years, but the relationship with his family is still not far or close.The child was raised by his side since childhood, and because of him, he was not close to the elders in the family.

Zhu Qiyou met his mother and found that her spirit was indeed much better than before, at least she was willing to talk to him a few more words.The lady's expression was still serious, but she also asked about the children's diet homework, and even gave her some girly things.

After the family said some polite words and had lunch together, Zhu Qiyou led the child back to his yard.

Zhu Qiyou intends to take his daughter out for a walk, but the child is obsessed with copying "The Analects of Confucius" first, and his serious attitude makes him ashamed as a father.

In the study room, the child was sitting upright in front of the desk, copying neat lowercase letters.

With his hands behind his back, Zhu Qiyou paced around the desk not far or near.He poked his head out from time to time, and when his daughter ignored her, he shrank back in frustration.

"Daddy, what on earth do you want!" After being surrounded by his father like a fly for a long time, the child finally couldn't stand the annoyance and complained.

"Daddy, let's copy it for you." Zhu Qiyou rubbed his hands, "Your Majesty gave dad a few days off. After copying earlier, let's go out to town for a horseback ride."

Hearing the horse riding, the child's eyebrows moved a little, and he barely held back, looking extremely troubled.

"It's okay, His Majesty always likes to punish people for copying books," Zhu Qiyou added to his anger when he saw her tempted, "Daddy was often punished by him in the past, and if Daddy doesn't agree with him, he can't really do anything to Daddy." But it means not giving him food, not sending someone to look after his food and daily life, and then secretly destroying the roof so that he will be exposed to rain at night.Zhu Qiyou slandered Song Yi in his heart, and now that he thought about it, this kid was a rotten kid back then, and he was just looking for trouble for himself.

"But the handwriting is different, isn't it easy to be found." Xiao'er said worriedly.

"It's okay," Zhu Qiyou rolled up his sleeves, "Your father and I are the best at imitating human handwriting."

Zhu Qiyou is worthy of being "the sage of calligraphy in the dude, the expert who was punished for writing", with his help, it took only half a day for the two of them to complete the copying.Before going to bed that night, Zhu Qiyou also instructed the child to finish writing that experience.The father and daughter picked out clothes for a long time, and planned to go out to play happily the next day.

The next day, the little girl got up early again.This day was not for putting on a show, but because she was too excited about the trip, she woke up early and couldn't fall asleep.Zhu Qiyou had expected this to be the case, and laughed at her for being the same as she was when she was a child, and she was a restless and restless person.However, the child does not have a clear memory of his childhood, staring at his father with big eyes.

Zhu Qiyou ordered not to prepare breakfast, and planned to take the children to the morning market for some snacks.

Just as he was about to go out, the concierge rubbed his eyes and ran to send a message, saying that the two generals Liu and Tong invited the second son out for tea.

Zhu Qiyou looked up at the sun that was about to come out, he couldn't laugh or cry.

"At this hour, whose house are they going to drink tea with?" Zhu Qiyou said with a smile, "A group of old buns."

Zhu Qiyou and these two were very good friends in the army, knowing that they were going to Beijing for the first time, they still didn't understand the rules here.I didn't know that I would post a post in advance when I invited my friends, but I rushed up to call the door when it was bright.It was also due to the high family status of the Hou Mansion, the two of them were stopped outside the gate, and only then did they know that they asked the concierge to pass them in.

The concierge came to report, Zhu Qiyou couldn't help laughing at his friend, but the child beside him tugged at his sleeve.

"Is Daddy going out with your colleagues?" The little girl couldn't hide anything in her eyes, and the disappointment was clearly engraved in her eyes.

Brothers are nothing, daughters are their own.Zhu Qiyou lifted the child up high, and told the concierge: "Tell them that your second master went out early in the morning, and no one knows where he went."

After finishing speaking, he blinked at Xiao'er, and made a silent gesture: "Crap!"

Holding his daughter in his arms, Zhu Qiyou led someone to the stable to lead the horse out, intending to slip away through the back door.

There is a ban on fast riding in the capital, and Zhu Qiyou suffered from it when he was the prince. Now that he is a father, he is more careful in his actions.He thought it was too slow to ride a horse in the city, so he simply put the child on the horse's back and led the horse ahead.Before he was out of the alley, he was forced to stop.Zhu Qiyou held the reins with one hand and put the other on his hips, looking helplessly at the two people blocking the way.

"What did I say, this kid is definitely going to escape through the back door." Liu Ruozhong said with a smile.

"You two," Zhu Qiyou cupped his fists and made a bow, "Brother, I'm taking the girl with me, so it's really inconvenient for me to have fun with you."

"Look at what you said," said Liu Ruozhong with a scarred face, "it seems like we are going to some bad place. Let's go somewhere to play, and bring our eldest niece with us!"

It was the first time for these two people to see Xiao'er, and they saw that the little girl was very precious and lovely.These two people also have wives and children in their family, but they have never mentioned such a beautiful child as Xiao'er, and they like it very much at the moment.Liu Ruozhong touched the purse at his waist, seeing that he didn't bring any good things, he took off the saber at his waist and handed it to the little girl before the horse.

"Uncle doesn't have anything valuable. This knife followed uncle to kill the enemy. It is stained with evil spirit. I left it for my niece as a talisman."

Seeing that he was so enthusiastic, the child couldn't sit on the horse, so he wanted to come down to return the salute.Liu Ruozhong waved his hands, telling her not to be cautious, and only said that her father's friendship with her was a fate.

"Since this knife belongs to Uncle Liu, I don't dare to take it." The child looked at his father, "Uncle has lost his usual weapon, what should he do if he is not used to it on the battlefield."

Liu Ruozhong laughed loudly, and his voice was like Hong Zhong: "As expected of your old Zhu's daughter, she is very courageous! Not only is she not afraid of weapons, but she also thinks carefully for my uncle."

Zhu Qiyou smiled smugly, he lifted the child off the horse by the waist, and nodded to her. "This knife is not bad. If you blow your hair, you will cut your hair. Since your Uncle Liu is willing to give it to you, you can accept it. Be careful not to hurt your hands."

With his father's approval, the child saluted Liu Ruozhong as a boy, and took the waist knife with both hands.

"Girl, haven't you practiced martial arts yet?" Tong Yugui asked beside him, "Why don't you take this opportunity to let Uncle Liu teach you the sword skills together."

The child shook his head and turned to look at his father.Zhu Qiyou put his arms around Liu Ruozhong's shoulders, and said taking advantage of the situation: "This is a good relationship. My girl has been raised in the palace, and the foundation has not yet been laid. If you are interested, you can accept him as an apprentice."

Hearing this, Liu Ruozhong laughed and said yes.He opened Zhu Qiyou's hand, leaned over to hug the little girl, but was tripped by his father.

"My daughter, Jin Gui, is here. Don't touch your hands." Zhu Qiyou scolded, and then asked Tong Yugui, "Didn't you have breakfast? There is a wonton in Xishi that tastes good. I stopped to take the girl there. I will take you as a thank-you gift." gone."

"Is there such a thing as reckoning, you rascal!" Liu Ruozhong roared.
