Women Wearing Men: The Growth Path of the Bastards of the Aristocratic Family

Chapter 239
"Reliable?"

As if he had never expected Gu Yunji to say this, Emperor Jing Feng's eyes flashed with surprise, and he said with a smile: "This word is quite novel, I thought you would say that he is clever and clever."

Gu Yunji said neither humble nor overbearing: "Smartness is a boast of talent. No matter how thick or thin God's endowment is, you can only see one or two advantages when you are young, and it is not the foundation of a person. Compared with talent, I still feel that a person's character Sex is more important."

"Most of a person's character comes from the day after tomorrow. His Highness is young now, and his temperament and character have not yet been fully formed. But as the saying goes, three years old is old. From the current point of view, 'practical' is actually the most important character of His Highness. It is a valuable point, and it is also the point that can affect his life the most.”

Emperor Jingfeng raised his eyebrows: "How can you see that?"

Gu Yunji said: "'Practice' is a popular term. In general, it means a calm mind, not too high-spirited, and the emphasis is on doing things within one's ability at the moment. When Caichen talked with His Highness, His Highness was articulate and logical. A foreign court official who is unfamiliar, neither domineering nor cowardly, he behaves decently and has a royal demeanor."

These words were slightly flattering, Emperor Jing Feng smiled and did not answer.

Gu Yunji said again: "Your Highness is eager to learn, and he knows that learning is for himself. This is especially valuable. In the world, children are playful by nature, and there are many evil scholars. Occasionally, those who love books are mostly to please their parents and elders. But Your Highness knows Reading wisely is to know the righteousness of life, not to show off or please anyone, it is really rare."

"To be able to have such insights at the age of seven shows that his mind is extraordinary. His Highness will definitely achieve a lot in the future. He is worthy of being the blood of the Tian family and His Majesty's prince."

When Emperor Jingfeng was young, he was notoriously cautious and studious, and this was exactly in line with the image of the holy emperor in the hearts of the courtiers, which can be said to be one of the important reasons why he was elected to the throne.Emperor Jing Feng was studious himself, so he naturally liked studious children.Concubine Liu Gui followed her fancy and urged the second prince to study every day, eager to show her learning achievements in front of Emperor Jingfeng. As time passed, Emperor Jingfeng loved the second prince more and more.

However, today's encounter made him know that the second prince's "study" is just an appearance, and once he is not around, his true colors will be revealed immediately, and he will not even touch the book.In contrast, even if the First Prince is studying the Three Character Classic, he still learns it steadily and earnestly. Whether Emperor Jing Feng can see it or not, it will not reduce his enthusiasm for learning. This is the real eagerness to learn.

Emperor Jingfeng is the son of heaven, and he has listened to thousands of compliments on his child, but the most satisfactory sentence among them is nothing more than "very much like his father". Gu Yunji kept praising Li Jinze for his studiousness, which just hit his heart.

Emperor Jingfeng raised his eyebrows happily, and said with a smile, "You can talk."

Gu Yunji bowed his head humbly: "I have only been in contact with His Majesty for a short period of time, and I only narrate it based on my impressions. There may be deviations in it, and it is definitely not as deep as His Majesty's understanding."

All civil and military officials in the whole court knew that Emperor Jingfeng despised and hated the eldest prince, not to mention the in-depth understanding, he might have almost forgotten his likes and birthdays.If Zhou Minqing were to say these words, Emperor Jingfeng would probably think that he was mocking himself, but Gu Yunji was only a recent official in the imperial court, so he was not so arrogant.

Emperor Jing Feng was a little bit hot when Gu Yunji said it, and he couldn't be harsh on him, so he had to change the subject and said: "I just heard that you are teaching the three-character classic to the eldest prince. How is he learning?"

Gu Yunji praised without hesitation: "Your Highness has learned very well. The minister taught His Highness eight sentences, a total of dozens of characters. It sounds slow, but after learning, His Highness can not only read and write, but also recite, understand Its meaning is not to blindly seek quantity without seeking deep understanding, His Highness understands every sentence thoroughly."

"Most of the boys in common people's families who are the same age as His Highness have already started reading and can recite more than a dozen classics. Although His Highness has not yet finished learning the Three Character Classic, but with his hard work and hard work, as long as he is given a better learning environment, he will be able to learn quickly. Grow up and improve quickly."

Emperor Jing Feng raised his eyes and glanced at him, and said in a cold tone, "Gu Qing is blaming me for not letting the eldest prince go out of the pavilion to study?"

"I don't dare." Gu Yunji bowed his body, with a respectful posture, "Your Majesty has his own considerations about the prince's study, not to mention that there are many discussions about it among the princes in the court, so there is no need for me to say more."

Gu Yunji didn't seem to answer anything, but his attitude was already very clear.Thinking of the courtiers' repeated letters to him over the past few days, Emperor Jingfeng felt restless, and asked calmly: "Then Gu Qing also thinks, should the eldest prince be allowed to study in the cabinet?"

Gu Yunji's expression was calm, and he said unhurriedly: "In the Three Character Classic, it is said that 'people do not learn, they do not know righteousness'. If you want to travel through the past and the present, and travel around the world, reading is the quickest and most effective way."

"My minister originally studied for the imperial examination, but not all for the imperial examination. What reading brought me was not only fame and fortune, but also broadened his horizons and deepened his thinking. After more than ten years of reading, he has a better understanding of knowledge. Seeing that the boy is eager to study but can't learn, I feel very sad." Gu Yunji spoke sincerely, and after finishing speaking, he bowed deeply to Emperor Jingfeng.

Hearing the words "extremely regrettable", Emperor Jingfeng's heart trembled violently. He couldn't help thinking that when he was in Prince Zhao's mansion in his early years, he had no parents or elders to teach him, and even though the mansion had a vast collection of books, he couldn't understand the meaning. He often had to go to the Imperial College with books Go ask sir.

At that time, he was still an unnoticed prince of the clan, coupled with his young age, some gentlemen were unwilling to take on the responsibility of extracurricular teaching, so they looked at him coldly and harshly, and only he knew how much bitterness there was.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, his son, who was a prince, would follow his old path, even worse than he used to be.After all, he still had a collection of books to read when he was young, and Li Jinze had to rely on chance to ask courtiers for advice even to learn the Three Character Classic, and all of this was caused by himself.

After quietly staring at Gu Yunji for a while, Emperor Jing Feng suddenly smiled, with relief and desolation in his eyes: "If Jia Daoheng had your eloquence, he wouldn't be punished."

Gu Yunji bowed his body even lower and remained silent.

After a while, Emperor Jingfeng raised his hand: "Forget it, the palace banquet will be over in a while, you should go back earlier."

Gu Yunji lowered his eyes and responded: "Yes, I will retire."

Emperor Jingfeng stood where he was, his eyes followed Gu Yunji's figure into the hall, but he still had no intention of leaving.Suddenly, he turned around decisively and strode forward: "Let's go, hurry up, take a shortcut."

Ning Fuhai was startled, and hurriedly followed: "Your Majesty, where are you going?"

Emperor Jingfeng smiled happily: "Go to see the eldest prince! Didn't he say that I have never been to his palace during festivals? Then I will go once today, and I must go quickly, before he returns to the palace , to surprise him!"

Seeing that his master was happy, Ning Fuhai brows and eyes were filled with joy, and he replied heavily: "Yes, Your Majesty!"
