"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty." Qin Fang pulled Qin Hao to bow together.

It is a good job to serve as a companion in the palace. If you have a good relationship with the future prince, your future career will be guaranteed. Many children from aristocratic families cannot get it.

It’s just that after entering the palace to accompany you to study, you can no longer go to the Cheng family school. Fortunately, Cheng Shaoshang has been introduced and will not be like before.

If you are tired of learning, you will be slowly guided away from saying that you are rich in learning, and you will not be labeled as unlearned and incompetent.

Qin Hao got off the carriage at the door of his home and came to Cheng's house.

Cheng Cheng was very supportive of Qin Hao going to the palace to be his companion, and was even a little envious. After all, the people who lectured the princes in the palace were all great scholars of the time.

Seeing the regretful look on Cheng Cheng's face, Qin Hao said to him: "Disciples have the habit of taking notes during lectures. If there is anything you don't understand, you still need to ask your teacher for advice."

Cheng Cheng was overjoyed when he heard this: "Just ask, as a teacher I will tell you everything I know."

Cheng Shu didn't think there was anything wrong, it was just that he was missing a classmate in class, but Ge was very depressed. It was not easy for him to have a legitimate son from a high family come to his door, but he had to leave after just over a month.

.

Mrs. Cheng is regretful that she may not be able to receive this annual gift from now on.

Cheng Shaoshang reluctantly pulled Qin Hao's sleeve, like an abandoned puppy, looking at him pitifully: "Am I never going to see you again?"

Qin Hao smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have already told my husband that I will bring my notes to ask for advice when I come back from the palace."

Cheng Shaoshang beamed with joy, and Qin Hao couldn't help but laugh. This girl was really a born actress. No wonder she didn't fall behind in the battle with the old woman of the Cheng family and Ge Shi.

The next day, before midnight, Qin Hao was woken up to wash up and go to the palace to read with him. This was not good. The class time was too early. Fortunately, Qin Hao was used to the schedule of ancient people and went to bed earlier.

It's not like I'm going to doze off.

When they arrived at the palace, a young eunuch led Qin Hao to a side hall. When Qin Hao walked into the side hall, two young men were already seated.

One of the young men, about ten years old, said to Qin Hao with a smile: "You are Qin Hao, the eldest son of Da Si Nong, right? We will be classmates from now on."

Qin Hao quickly saluted: "I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."

[Ding, unlock the plot character Prince, reward luck value: 50 points.]

"No need to be polite." The prince gently helped Qin Hao up.

Another young man, about seven or eight years old, looked at Qin Hao curiously. His expression was a little cold. Seeing Qin Hao salute, he just nodded and sat down.

[Ding, unlock the plot character the Third Prince, reward luck value: 60 points.]

Qin Hao didn't care. He took out his stationery and set it up. Not long after, the teacher came. So Qin Hao, the new student, just took one look at it and started teaching. For him, teaching the prince and the third prince was the main business. Qin Hao

Whether this kind of "auditor" can learn anything has nothing to do with him.

For a six-year-old child, learning about the Three Legends of Spring and Autumn Period must be confusing. However, Qin Hao was the number one scholar in the Song Dynasty, so this amount of schoolwork is completely insignificant to him.

.

The only difference is that the mainstream thought in the Song Dynasty was Confucianism, while the Taoist thoughts of Zhuang Lao in the Han Dynasty occupied the mainstream values ​​of society. Many great Confucians of the time had in-depth research on Taoism and were both Confucianists and Taoists.

In fact, the emperors in the early Western Han Dynasty basically followed Huang Lao's general policy of governing the country, advocating the theory of living in harmony with the people, making the people rich and the country strong. Later, the "Government of Wen and Jing" also ushered in, until after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, in order to

After unifying their thoughts and expanding externally, they began to overthrow hundreds of schools of thought and only respect Confucianism.

However, the Eastern Han Dynasty also quickly began to decline. The reasons were very complicated. The blame cannot be entirely attributed to Confucianism, but Confucianism also has to bear some responsibility.

After the establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Wen of China gradually began to recuperate and recuperate after his political status was stabilized. His governing program also gradually favored the techniques of Huang and Lao, so the teacher assigned to the prince was also a great Confucian who practiced both Confucianism and Taoism.

Although the contact time was short, Qin Hao could probably tell that the prince agreed with Taoism's rule of inaction, while the third prince was more inclined to Confucian centralization.

Soon the two started arguing, and the teacher was so cunning that he threw the hot potato to Qin Hao.

"Do you think the country should be governed by the Huang-Lao way or the Confucian way?"

When Qin Hao saw that the prince and the third prince were looking at him, he couldn't help but secretly cursed this bad old man for being so bad.

"Students have some superficial opinions, and I hope you can correct me. I think that the way to govern a country is like cooking fresh vegetables. "The Book of Songs" Mao Chuan says: "If you cook fish with trouble, it will break into pieces; if you treat the people with trouble, they will fall apart. If you know how to cook fish, you will know how to govern the people; if you cook fresh fish, you will know how to govern the people.

Those who govern a big country must not be annoyed. If you are annoyed, you will hurt people. If you are scratched, the fish will rot."

Before Qin Hao finished speaking, the third prince interrupted: "If the people's ignorance is not restrained, wouldn't it lead to great disaster if they are exploited?"

The prince also looked at Qin Hao. He and the third prince had been arguing about this issue for a long time, and neither could convince the other.

Qin Hao looked at the third prince after hearing this, shook his head and said: "Ruling by doing nothing does not mean not ruling, but trying to relax the restraints on the people. Qin destroyed the six kingdoms with severe punishments and heavy laws, and the second generation died. The law was established to serve as a warning, and the people should not be afraid."

Why should we fear death? If the people cannot survive, how can they not resist?"

The prince's eyes lit up, he stepped forward, held Qin Hao's hand, and said excitedly: "After listening to Mr. Qin's words, Gu's thoughts are clear."

The third prince did not become angry, but fell into deep thought.

After listening to Qin Hao's words, the scholar in charge of teaching looked at him in surprise and smiled after a long time.

"I never thought you would have such insight at such a young age. The Qin family is indeed a family-owned company. If you don't understand anything in the future, you can always ask questions."

This was when Qin Hao was truly treated as a student. Only then did Qin Hao know that the great scholar's name was Zhang Chun.

"Thank you, sir." Qin Hao saluted quickly. Not only did he have outstanding knowledge, but his family was also very prominent.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Yuan Shao was able to rise rapidly because of the prominent reputation of the fourth generation and third generation of the Yuan family, and Zhang Chun's family was also the fourth generation and third generation. This shows that his family background is definitely a big deal.

On the first day of class, Qin Hao gained the recognition of the Crown Prince, the Third Prince and Zhang Chun, and his words naturally reached the ears of Emperor Wen.

"This son will become a pillar of the country in the future." Emperor Wen declared.

For the next period of time, Qin Hao followed the prince and the third prince to listen to the lectures of Confucian scholars in the morning. The afternoon classes were more complicated, including arithmetic, etiquette, music, and riding and archery. The afternoon classes alternated every day, and you could also ask for leave, such as

The prince rarely comes to riding and archery lessons, while the third prince only loves riding and archery, although his level is really not that good and he is a glutton for food.

Almost two months later, in the fall, a new classmate came to the small classroom of three.

[Ding, unlock the plot character Ling Buyi, reward luck value: 80 points.]

Ling Buyi looks to be eight or nine years old. He has a cold face and likes to ignore everyone. At first, the prince often talked to him, but later he started to talk to him more and more, and then he gradually stopped talking to him.

Love talking to him.

In addition, Emperor Wen was so kind to Ling Buyi, his adopted son, that both the crown prince and the third prince were jealous, so Ling Buyi became the most unsociable person in the class.

Except sometimes during riding and shooting lessons, Ling Buyi would say a few words to Qin Hao, and the rest of the time he acted coldly.

However, it is understandable that an eight-year-old child suffered a genocide, wandered among the people for two years, and experienced all the hardships of the world. It is normal for him to choose to close himself off.

What's more interesting is that after Ling Buyi came, the third prince started a journey of torture. Before, Qin Hao took care of his face to some extent, so that he wouldn't lose miserably.

Ling Buyi was different, he didn't lie at all. The third prince was suppressed no matter whether he was riding a horse, archery or melee with weapons. However, the third prince was still unconvinced and always wanted to challenge Ling Buyi to prove himself.

However, he was completely incomparable to Ling Buyi, a protagonist who was extremely gifted in martial arts. He was often beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. As time went by, the third prince really couldn't see the hope of revenge, so he could only pin his hope on Qin Hao, which turned out to be worse.

I became familiar with Qin Hao.

Those who have gone to school together are not as good as those who have carried guns together. Soon the prince discovered that the relationship between the other three seemed to be getting better and better. On the contrary, because he often did not attend riding and shooting lessons, he gradually became alienated from the other three.

external existence.

Now the prince never missed any riding and archery lessons. However, his qualifications were really average and he was not willing to learn. His grades were always at the bottom. This situation continued until the five-year-old fifth prince joined the primary school.

Only then did the class end.

Speaking of which, the fifth prince is also a tragic existence. The prince and the third prince are both his brothers. Although Qin Hao is a minister, he is deeply loved by several great scholars, but he does not dare to offend Ling Buyi, a cold-faced killer.

"The Ronin Begins with Douluo"

So the fifth prince became everyone's little follower. He had to beg Qin Hao and others before they would take him to play with him, even though Qin Hao was only one year older than him.

Leisurely days always pass quickly. In the blink of an eye, it has been half a year since the Qin family moved to the capital, and it will soon be Zhengdan, the Spring Festival of the Han Dynasty.

However, unlike the officials in the Song Dynasty who had a long holiday during the Spring Festival, the Zhengdan officials in the Han Dynasty also could not take a break. They had to attend official court meetings, and Qin Fang was naturally one of them.

The people are more casual, and wooden signs are hung at the door of every house. These are also the door gods of the Han Dynasty: Shen Tu and Yu Lei.

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas" records that Shen Tu and Yu Lei grew up on a peach tree, guarding the gate of ghosts, catching harmful ghosts with reed ropes, and then feeding them to tigers. This legend evolved into later times when people used peach trees to

Carving images of Shen Tu and Yu Lei was believed to ward off evil spirits.

Qin Hao just got up and came to the yard to prepare for some activities when he was hit by a snowball. When he looked up, he found that this ghost girl Cheng Shaoshang was smiling proudly at him.

"It's freezing cold, why are you still climbing the wall? You're not afraid of falling." Qin Hao glared at her.

Cheng Shaoshang patted the snow on his hands, pursed his lips and said disgustedly: "You got up so late, I climbed the wall three times."

Qin Hao walked to the wall, saw her unhappy expression, and asked, "In a bad mood?"

Cheng Shaoshang nodded: "My father and mother have not come back. They all say that I am an unwanted child."

Qin Hao frowned slightly. Needless to say, this must have been done by Ge Shi's subordinates.

"Well, don't you already know a lot of words? Write a letter and I'll have someone bring it to your father. Then you can communicate regularly in the future."

Cheng Shaoshang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and then he hesitated: "But I have no money."

Qin Hao smiled and said: "But your father is rich, we can trust him to pay."

"Payment has arrived? Then I'll ask dad to give you more money." Cheng Shaoshang suddenly beamed, and before Qin Hao could say anything, he slipped down from the tree and disappeared.

After a while, Cheng Shaoshang climbed up the wall again, holding a bamboo slip tightly in his little hands that were slightly red from the cold.

Just when Qin Hao was about to take the bamboo slips from her hand, he suddenly heard a roar from outside the wall: "Cheng Shaoshang, what do you have in your hand? Come down quickly!"
