My Brother-in-law is the Prince Chapter 25

Chapter 25

Zhu Di nodded: "The last time I made a treasure note, I really didn't expect that the emperor's decree, not only did the monks and the common people not obey it, but everything ran counter to it. This is really surprising."

"Theoretically speaking, if the emperor is in the deep palace and doesn't know the actual situation, but what about the cabinet, there are six ministers and ministers? Sigh... who would have thought that not only did the edict not have any effect, but it made the market panic."

Zhang Anshi said with a smile: "It seems that my brother has lost a lot of money."

Zhu Di: "..."

"I don't know what the princes in the court are thinking, but many ministers are from the imperial examinations, and they rarely have contact with practical affairs. In fact, it is understandable."

Zhu Di nodded, and the two finally reached an agreement.

Zhu Di said: "When the emperor was in the army, he still knew how to lead the soldiers and share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers. Therefore, every time Jing Nan's army and horses encountered setbacks, the soldiers still followed the emperor and refused to break up. Thinking about it, running an army is the same as running a country. Most of the civil servants in the court are self-confessed and do not know the sufferings of the people, so how can they be expected to rule the world? I think most of the civil servants are useless."

Zhang Anshi said: "Don't be so extreme, bro."

Zhu Di glared at him: "Why, is your family from civil servants?"

"Not really, I just think that there are always talents."

Zhu Di became interested, and looked at Zhang Anshi with a smile: "Then tell me, which one is a talent."

"This... this..." Zhu Di asked for a while, but Zhang Anshi couldn't answer for a while.

However, in Zhang Anshi's view, what he and the man in front of him are doing now is the work of keyboard warriors, no different from those people in the market who drink a few sips of wine and start pointing out the country.

It's just that even if it's blowing water, there must be some dry goods in the end.

Fiercely, Zhang Anshi said: "There is a man named Yang Shiqi who is very talented. Such a person must be a talent for governing the world."

Zhu Di was at a loss: "Who is Yang Shiqi?"

The reason why Zhang Anshi thought of Yang Shiqi was because his brother-in-law of the crown prince wanted someone to teach him to give lectures. It seemed that he was invited by a lecturer named Yang Shiqi from the Eastern Palace.

Of course... This name has also been heard by Zhang Anshi in the later world, at least it has appeared in various novels and TV dramas. It is said that the main national policies from the early Ming Dynasty to the middle of the Ming Dynasty have his shadow.

Because this person was born in poverty, he knows the hardships of the people very well.

Look... Isn't this just right?

Zhang Anshi said: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, what are we going to do with our leisure!"

Zhu Di nodded, but murmured in his heart, this guy... just talking nonsense?

After drinking for three rounds, Zhang Anshi was already a little drunk. At this time, Zhu Di seemed to be preparing to leave. He touched Zhang Anshi's back and said with emotion: "This little baby is not bad, and he will have a bright future in the future."

Zhang Anshi said heartily: "Then I also wish you a bright future."

Zhu Di smiled: "Damn it, messing with you here will delay my business, so let's go, get out."

"You..." Zhang Anshi gritted his teeth, and glanced at the strong guards around Zhu Di, and could only smile: "Goodbye."

Although the relationship is close, the procedure still has to go. For example, Zhang Anshi happily got into the sack.

There is a good saying, life is like xx, if you can't resist, then learn to enjoy it.

The powerful guard of Kong Wu carried Zhang Anshi on his back, and soon appeared in an alley, and Zhang Anshi got out.

The guard stared at Zhang Anshi, and suddenly said: "Don't gossip in front of him in the future, there are some people you can't afford."

Zhang Anshi patted the dust on his body: "I don't know who can't offend whom!"

Pat your **** and go straight away.

Leave the guard, the wind is messy.

Zhang Anshi was on his way home, but at this moment, the Zhang family was in chaos.

Zhang Anshi slipped out. Deng Jian came excitedly to teach Zhang Anshi how to eat and drink in the court, but he disappeared.

And Yang Shiqi, the lecturer in the Imperial Academy, just came here today, and prepared some homework about the Four Books and Five Classics, planning to make up for Zhang Anshi.

As a result, when the person arrived...only to find that the young master of the Zhang family didn't even see a ghost.

Yang Shiqi was sitting in the hall, while Deng Jian was very embarrassed, and said to Yang Shiqi again and again: "After a while, Mr. Zhang will come back. Be safe and don't be impatient. Come on, Yang Shi said, you can drink some tea. Have a sip of tea."

So, after Yang Shiqi tactically used tea to cover up his embarrassment countless times, and ran to the latrine seven or eight times at the same time, Zhang Anshi came back smelling of alcohol.

Yang Shiqi's complexion was very bad. Before he came, he had got the prince's instruction, and he was quite happy. After all, he was a mere servant, and he was really lucky to be favored by the prince.

Of course, this actually has something to do with Yang Shiqi's background.

Yang Shiqi grew up in poverty, his father died early, and his mother remarried. His stepfather treated him well, but he also died soon.

So orphans and widows depend on each other, and he makes a living by being a teacher for others.

In the early Ming Dynasty, the imperial court needed a large number of talents, so Yang Shiqi was able to enter the court as an official under the recommendation of nobles.

That is to say, Yang Shiqi was not an official who passed the imperial examinations to become an official. This was not a problem in the time of Emperor Taizu Gao, but it has become a huge weakness after the Ming Dynasty has been established for decades.

Yang Shiqi's official career was not good. Those Jinshi who came from the right way looked down on him, and he came from a poor family.

Therefore, in the early years of the Yongle Dynasty, he was just a transparent person.

At this time, he thought, no wonder the crown prince asked him to teach this Mr. Zhang. It's because good things don't happen, and bad things let him take the blame.

Yang Shiqi and Zhang Anshi greeted each other.

Zhang Anshi heard that Yang Shiqi was here, and he was actually very enthusiastic: "Come on, come on, Shidao Yang, I've heard about you for a long time, let's sit down, Shidao Yang, have you eaten yet?"

Yang Shiqi smiled helplessly when he heard Zhang Anshi say that he had admired his name for a long time.

It's fine if others look up to you for a long time, but you come to look up for a long time... hey... bad luck.

Yang Shiqi put on a serious face and said in a businesslike manner: "My lord, let's start studying."

Zhang An Shidao: "Well, well, I have always liked reading."

Thus, a "Book of History" was placed in front of Zhang Anshi.

Zhang Anshi was dumbfounded at first, and in good conscience, he knew every word in it, but when combined, Zhang Anshi became blind.

The most frightening thing is that when Yang Shiqi started studying, Zhang Anshi began to doze off, feel drowsy, and his eyelids kept fighting.

Several times... Seeing Zhang Anshi's dumb look, Yang Shiqi coughed desperately, reminding Zhang Anshi to cheer up.

Zhang Anshi was startled, and opened his eyes blankly to look around. At first, he looked confused and wondered who I am and where I am.

The next moment, the eyelids began to droop again.

After doing this several times, Yang Shiqi felt that he was about to collapse.

He wanted to be furious, and imagined that he would beat this hateful guy with a ruler just like he did when he was a teacher in the folk.

But he held back, and for the sake of his own future, he warned himself that he could only swallow his anger.

"Master Zhang, can you understand the "Book of Zhou" I just talked about?"

Zhang Anshi: "..."

"Don't worry, take your time, let me explain the essence of "Book of Zhou" to you."

"Okay, Mr. Zhang must have mastered this."

Zhang Anshi stared, blinking occasionally, looking at Yang Shiqi with a stiff face.

Yang Shiqi took a deep breath, tried his best to maintain a professional smile, and said: "Then let me say it again, listen carefully this time, don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, many people are like this at first, when you get the knack...you can It's a matter of course.”

So repeated comfort for several days.

At the end, Yang Shiqi wanted to cry but had no tears.

Because this guy is clueless.

You say he has a bad attitude, but he respects you quite a bit.

But if you want to say that he is cute, you have talked so much about the Four Books and Five Classics, but in the end this guy is still blind.

You can't beat him and scold him, after all, he is the brother-in-law of His Highness the Crown Prince, and His Highness the Crown Prince seems to value this brother-in-law very much.

So, a few days later, when Yang Shiqi went to Zhang's house, he probably felt like going to the grave.

When he almost collapsed and broke his defense several times, he used strong willpower to pull his sanity back again and again.
