Chapter Six: Pretentious

In the back garden of Zhou Guo's palace, a group of children were chasing each other and playing. Although they were chasing and playing, they were not running very smoothly due to their heavy clothes. After all, they were in the palace, and the necessary etiquette was still

what need to do.

"It's really noisy." A seven-year-old child, wearing an elegant white robe embroidered with purple and gold dragon patterns, with a calm look on his fair and delicate face, was sitting at the table looking at the running children,

He said something that seemed inconsistent with his age.

When the teacher on the side, Yu Guang, saw this, he was a little surprised and even a little scared. Although he had taught countless royal children, he had never seen anyone as calm as Prince Yin.

He was originally a scholar. Although he had no attribute achievements, he believed that he could obtain better means of livelihood by relying on his knowledge. However, the books he could see and come into contact with were simply insignificant compared to those from wealthy families.

of.

As an adult, Yu Guang traveled around and explored knowledge personally. Although his knowledge was not as good as those who steadily studied poetry and books, his experience for most of his life allowed him to gain many different insights and gain many things that were not found in books.

Things, and the things he was thinking about were unimaginable by those who worked behind closed doors.

Therefore, through his own personal visits, he not only pointed out many mistakes of his predecessors, but also put forward his own opinions. However, his opinions were not consistent with the records in those books, so his opinions were often refuted by others.

But as more people refuted him, people re-examined those views. Then some people went to visit those views in person and found that he was right. Over time, his name spread throughout the country and abroad.

He was nearly fifty years old and had been running around for a long time. He originally wanted to find a place to be a teacher and slowly think about what he had seen and heard over the years. However, he suddenly received an imperial edict from the Zhou royal family, granting him the position of Imperial Master, with the mission to preach and teach.

Industry.

Yu Guang's first student was Zhou Xing, the current emperor of Zhou.

Because Yu Guang traveled around various countries and knew almost everything about the big and small things in each country, he passed on these insights to Zhou Xing. After Zhou Xing accepted these insights that were close to the common people, after he inherited the throne, he

With Yu Guang's knowledge, he used different methods to govern the Zhou Kingdom, and the Zhou Kingdom became very powerful as a result.

After finishing teaching Zhou Xing, Yu Guang accepted the teaching task of the royal family's children, including Prince Zhou Sheng.

Over the years of teaching the children of the royal family, he also had deep feelings in his heart. From the beginning, he did not dare to offend the children of the royal family, and his teaching was very passive. However, those children of the royal family did not take him seriously at all, and would always bring out his own background.

, which made him really afraid.

Later, when Zhou Xing succeeded to the throne, he suddenly became the teacher of the current emperor, and the ministers around him looked at him differently.

No one among those royal children dared to directly contradict him anymore, but these royal children were still very naughty.

After all, they don't need to worry about their future if they come from a wealthy family. As long as they have their own family background, they can become masters without any effort. If it weren't for Yu Guang's rigid requirements for these royal children, I'm afraid they wouldn't even have the minimum qualifications.

There is no way to complete the homework.

Relying on his own status and knowledge, coupled with the ups and downs of officialdom over the years, Yu Guang is really tainted with this air of pride. Yu Guang teaches from a high level every day, and only a few words are answered when some students ask questions.

, perfunctory and intimidating.

Some students couldn't finish their homework, so Yu Guang kept them until they finished and refused to let them eat. The parents of those students, none of them had status and background, but when they met him, they had no choice but to watch.

to watch their children suffer.

Some ministers were naturally dissatisfied and made suggestions to the emperor. The emperor's reply was straightforward, "It all depends on Yu Guang's handling."

week

As for the prince in front of him, Zhou Kutian, Yu Guang's attitude towards him at first was no different from those of the royal children, until that time Zhou Kutian contradicted him.

That time, Zhou Kutian asked Yu Guang a question, and Yu Guang answered a few perfunctory questions as usual. Although Zhou Kutian didn't say anything at the time, he stopped coming to class the next day, and he didn't see Zhou Kutian at all in the following days.

figure.

Finally, Yu Guang finally lost his temper. Although he could ignore these royal children, he could not ignore Zhou Yutian. After all, he was the emperor's second son, and no one in the Zhou royal family did not love Zhou Yutian.

After class, Yu Guang came to Zhou Kutian's house and was very angry when he saw Zhou Kutian learning boxing and kicking there. He walked up to Zhou Kutian and asked, "Why don't you go to class?"

"Sir, you are not teaching seriously. Since you are not serious enough, there is no need for students to continue to listen to the class." Zhou Kutian waved his fists and feet while talking to Yu Guang. On the side, the person who taught Zhou Kutian Kung Fu was Zhou Xing, who was from the Imperial Guard.

The bodyguard chosen by Zhou Yutian.

"It's rude, you are only a seven-year-old naughty boy, how do you know the principles of this world? Come back with me quickly." When Zhou Yutian said this, Yu's face became very ugly.

"Although I am only seven years old, I am not a naughty boy. If my husband is not willing to teach seriously, I will find another teacher who is willing to teach seriously." Zhou Yutian ignored Yu Guang, whose face turned ugly, and was still minding his own business.

I started practicing boxing and kicking.

"You." Yu Guang was suddenly speechless. After all, he did not teach seriously. He felt very embarrassed after being exposed by a seven-year-old child, and then sat down directly in the pavilion in the courtyard.

"Hurry and show me some tea, sir." Although Zhou Yutian ignored Yu Guang, he still fulfilled his courtesy.

Seeing Zhou Kutian's courtesy, Yu Guang did not appreciate it and did not even move the tea brought by the maid.

After some time, Zhou Yutian finally finished the training and sat down next to Yu Guang, drinking the tea he had just given to Yu Guang.

"You." Yu Guang was very angry when he saw this.

"The student knows the purpose of your visit this time. But sir, you see, the guard who just practiced martial arts with me did not dare to neglect me at all, but he also did not dare to try his best for fear of hurting me, so although he has learned

His kung fu is better than others, but not as good as expected." Zhou Yutian said.

"That's because he is your bodyguard. If he hurts you, he can't bear the blame from the emperor." Yu Guang reluctantly spoke, but still didn't look at Zhou Yutian.

"Sir, if you don't have such troubles, why don't you teach me seriously?" Zhou Yutian asked.

"How did you see that I didn't teach seriously?" Yu Guang said slightly discouraged.

"I heard that my father was able to create such a prosperous world because of the guidance of my husband. I heard that my husband was well-known at home and abroad, and what he saw and heard was extraordinary," Zhou Yutian said.

"Huh, that's natural." Yu Guang did not hide his inner pride at all. Although he was unhappy, no one would be unhappy with other people's praise.

"Sir, you have written several books earlier, which recorded your travel experiences. However, I did not hear your explanations in class. They were all boring books. You only briefly discussed many issues.

To put it bluntly, even the explanation seems complicated and difficult to understand." Zhou Yutian continued.

"You are young, what knowledge and principles do you know?" Yu Guang's sore spot was touched, so there was some strong justification in his words.

"Although I am young, I have read a lot of books. My father dotes on me and keeps me by his side for fear that I will be hurt. I did not even go to this palace before I was six years old, but my mother is here.

He taught me how to read. Therefore, I could only keep company with books since I was a child. Although I often wanted to go outside and look around, my father never allowed me to do so," Zhou Yutian said.

"After that, if it weren't for the practice of the Zhou Kingdom, I might have to stay with my father. What can I see in this palace? If I want to understand the things outside, I can only read books. I have read a lot of books, but the road

But he didn't even take a step out. My father is an old man and he loves me very much. I can understand that, but among the children of princes and generals who are my age, none of them should be wandering around outside and should be playing.

They play and run when they should. And I can only rely on the words from the guards to understand their lives. The rest I can only pass the time by reading books." Zhou Yutian said.

"That is also the emperor's love and care for you. How can you think about it like this?" Yu Guang couldn't bear it, but he didn't want to show anything.

"I've had enough of this kind of life. My husband is also a scholar. He also knows that if you read more books, your horizons will naturally be higher and you will think differently. I read the things in my husband's books and now I feel like

I want to go and see for myself, I want to know if those anecdotes really exist, but my father doesn’t allow it.”

Zhou Wutian.

"I don't know how many people are envious of your pampered life. Don't you think it's enough?" Yu Guang said.

"It's because I'm pampering myself, that's why my body feels uncomfortable and I want to move. It's okay if I'm just pampering myself, but I read my husband's travel notes, which really makes the student want to go out for a walk." Zhou Yutian said.

"From now on, you don't have to go to school. I will come to you in person to give you lessons. The books in your hands are all royal stuff. I'm afraid they will be turned over for you. The teacher will choose some books for you to read.

"As for going out, I'm afraid we have to wait. After all, your current situation is closely related to other countries, so you can't make any mistakes." Yu Guang thought for a while, stroking his beard and said.

"The student has thanked you here, sir. I wonder what the student's involvement with other countries is?" Zhou Yutian asked after bowing with both hands and thanking Guang Guang.

"It's a bad fate." After Yu Guang finished speaking, he ignored Zhou Kutian, put his hands behind his back, and left.

Ever since that incident, Yu Guang did not dare to underestimate Zhou Kutian, let alone treat him as an ordinary royal child.

Under Yu Guang's careful guidance, Zhou Yutian gradually gained a more detailed understanding of the outside world. However, the more thorough he understood it, the more he wanted to go outside and take a look. Fortunately, Yu Guang collected a large number of books for him.

Zhou Wutian, otherwise Zhou Wutian would have gone somewhere long ago.

While reading a lot of books, Zhou Yutian has been practicing martial arts. Wanting to make a career outside is not something that a weak scholar can do. You must have your own skills to be able to deal with these things. This may be the reason why Yu Guang collected military books for Zhou Yutian.

Influence.

When Zhou Xing got a son when he was old, he naturally doted on Zhou Kutian. Needless to say, Zhou Kutian was the queen's biological flesh and blood, and the ones who doted on Zhou Kutian even more were Zhou Kutian's brother, the prince Zhou Sheng, and his sister Zhou Hong. After all, Zhou Kutian

Without attribute achievements, he would not pose any threat to Zhou Sheng's throne. In addition, Zhou Sheng had no friends since he was a child, so he doted on his younger brother. After completing the affairs of the Prince's Mansion, Zhou Sheng would inevitably come to Zhou Kutian to meet him.

When he was young, he played with Zhou Kutian. After Zhou Kutian started practicing martial arts, he played with him with his fists and feet.

Women are naturally irresistible to cute things. After Zhou Wutian was born, Zhou Hong circled around Zhou Wutian every day and carried Zhou Wutian around the palace all day long. If the queen hadn't given her permission, Zhou Hong would have lived in the Princess Mansion.

Up.

There are rumors like this in the Zhou Kingdom. As long as you can make this young prince happy, then the entire Zhou royal family will be happy. If you make this young prince unhappy, then your life will be over. So much so that the following

Those who were ready to pay tribute would spend a lot of money to find out what the young prince liked. After learning that the young prince liked to read, the prices of books at home and abroad soared, and the status of scholars also slowly rose.

After getting up, those who don't like reading and hate learning slowly began to get in touch with books. After all, the young prince has no attribute achievements, but he likes to read. If you want to be friends with the young prince in the future, then scholars will definitely be more popular than those common people.

.

"Sir, I don't need to let these children bother me anymore. I hope Mr. Ming will tell my father that I don't need any accompanying students," Zhou Yutian said to Guang.

Yu Guang was surprised by Zhou Kutian's behavior and began to recall what had happened to Zhou Kutian over the years, when he was suddenly brought back to reality by Zhou Kutian's words.

"Well, I don't think it's necessary anymore." Yu Guang nodded.

Now, the relationship between Yu Guang and Zhou Yutian is no longer the relationship between a teacher and a student, but more like a friendship between gentlemen. Yu Guang also deeply feels that the future achievements of the prince in front of him will definitely not be as good as his.
