Daming: Mixed in Dangzhi County, Beiping

Just when the old man Baozhao was still feeling a little dissatisfied, Guo An had already jumped on the carriage.

He urged Xu Yong, who was catching up, "Go home quickly!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Xu Yong also knew the reason for this, so he directly led a group of guards to escort Guo An back quickly.

After Guo An walked into the mansion, he kept walking towards the east courtyard.

All the way, we entered a quiet courtyard.

In the courtyard, all the maidservants and servants looked shocked when they saw Guo An and saluted repeatedly.

"See Your Highness!"

"See Your Highness!"

However, the voice of greeting was very small.

"Ok!"

Guo An nodded slightly and walked to a study nearby.

The decoration in Nuo Da's study room is very simple and simple.

Apart from rows of bookshelves filled with books, there was only one desk near the window.

Behind the desk, there sat a handsome young man whose eyebrows were very similar to Guo An's. He was holding a book in his hand and reading it attentively.

Seeing this, a hint of helplessness flashed in Guo An's eyes.

"Shen'er!"

"father?"

Hearing the voice, Guo Shen came back to his senses. After seeing Guo An, he quickly stood up and bowed his hands to Guo An respectfully.

Guo An said helplessly: "As a father, I am very pleased that you study so hard and seriously.

But your kid has been sitting here reading all day long. When he grows up, he will really become a weak scholar!

...Look at that bastard Guo Lu, he went somewhere to cause trouble again today. "

Guo Shen said with a serious face: "Dad, reading makes people wise!
Success comes from hard work rather than play, success comes from thinking but failure comes from casualness. There are many people in this world who want to study hard, but their families have no money and cannot study. Dad has given so much to his children..."

"Okay, okay, your kid has read more books than his father, and I can't even defend you!"

Guo An waved his hand helplessly and directly explained his purpose.

"Today, when I went to the experimental field outside the city to relax, I found a teacher for you. Do you want to learn from him?"

"teacher?"

Guo Shen frowned and said, "Dad, if you want your child to go out more, you can tell him directly. Why do you want to find a teacher for your child to go to the experimental field? He is not interested in growing food!"

"Where did your kid go?"

Hearing this, Guo An's face darkened.

"The teacher I found for you is Bao Zhao!"

"Bao Zhao?"

Guo Shen was stunned, thought for a moment, and looked at Guo An in surprise, "Dad, is that the tyrannical man who was once the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel?"

"It's this person!"

Guo An nodded slightly.

"Although this old man has a bit of a stubborn temper, he is honest and thrifty. He has rich experience as an official. He also studies classics and history. He is very wise. He will definitely be able to teach you, kid!"

Guo Shen was still a little surprised, "Bao Gong is really willing to teach children?"

"Hmph, what's wrong with you?"

Guo An was a little displeased, "The noble prince of the Ming Dynasty is very talented. Which great scholar in the entire Ming Dynasty doesn't want to teach you?"

"It's just that since the violent old man became an official, he likes to stay in the experimental field.

If you want to study, you have to run there every day! "

"My child is willing!"

Guo Shen said quickly.

"Do you really want to?"

Guo An looked happy.

"If you are willing, kid, we will ask Guo Ang to prepare a bundle of repairs for you, and prepare some gifts for Old Man Bao, and we will take you to become a disciple tomorrow!"

"Excuse me, Dad!"

Guo Shen nodded solemnly.

"it is good!"

Guo An turned around and walked out.

Behind him, Guo Shen had just sat down and was about to read a book.

Immediately, he felt something was wrong, "Are you in such a hurry to become a disciple? You don't need to check the date, or you can ask Mr. Bao to set a date, and then invite all your friends to watch the ceremony?"

After returning to the main hall, Guo An gave instructions to Guo Ang.

"Guo Ang, hurry up and prepare a bundle of repairs. We will take the prince to see a teacher tomorrow!"

Hearing this, Guo Ang suddenly became curious.

"Master, do you want to become a disciple of the Crown Prince? I wonder which great scholar you are?"

"Bad man!"

"Bad man?"

Guo Ang couldn't help but be surprised,
"Ok!"

Guo An nodded and said to himself, "I will prepare some gifts for Mr. Bao, such as tea sets, glasses, books..."

"Yes, sir!"

Guo Ang came to his senses now, his eldest son could actually become that disciple!
Thinking about it, Guo Ang ran away and ran out.

"hold on……"

In the main hall, Guo An didn't know what he thought of again, and quickly called Guo Ang to stop.

"In order to prevent any accidents, please don't make any announcements beforehand.

Let’s talk about everything after paying homage to the master tomorrow! "

"Yes, sir!"

Guo Ang didn't thank him much, he responded quickly and ran out quickly.

According to the current financial resources of the Shunde County Prince's Mansion, it would be very easy to find the glasses, tea sets, famous teas, classics and the like that Guo An thought of by preparing a gift of money.

Nothing happened all night.

The next day, after getting up, Guo An directly dragged Guo Shen into the carriage and went to the experimental field outside the city.

The crowd was huge, and as soon as they approached Zhuangzi, they were already discovered.

Guo Bingyong, Bao Zhao and others also came out to greet them.

Guo Bingyong, Guo Zhi and others all looked happy.

Only Bao Zhao had a solemn look on his face.

He thought about it all night yesterday and finally realized that he was indeed being plotted by Guo An, Guo Bingyong, and Guo Zhi, the four honest-looking Guo brothers.

"I have met His Highness!"

"See His Highness the County King!"

However, no matter how reluctant Bao Zhao was, he could only greet Guo An slowly.

"Haha, don't be so polite, tyrant!"

Guo An looked happy and even a little attentive.

When Bao Zhao looked at Guo Shen standing aside, Guo An quickly told Guo Shen: "This is Mr. Bao!"

"Bao Gong, this is my incompetent prince! All he does is go to the study and read books all day long.

I have read more books in the past few years than I have in my entire life. I am really worried that this kid will become a weak nerd who does not understand the world in the future! "

"Guo Shen has seen Mr. Bao!"

"I have seen His Royal Highness!"

Guo Shen and Baogong ignored Guo An, but looked at each other and then greeted each other.

"Bao Gong's eyes are piercing and full of wisdom!"

"His Royal Highness, Prince of Shunde County, has a scholarly aura about him and is full of spiritual energy. I didn't expect that the Prince of Shunde County, who only needs money and food, but is fortunate to be made by craftsmen, could actually raise such a good seedling?"

Perhaps, there will be love at first sight between teachers and students!
Bao Zhao and Guo Shen looked at each other instantly.

What happened next was completely beyond Guo An's expectations.

Before entering the room, Bao Zhao was asking Guo Shen questions like he was asking questions every day.

Guo Shen answered directly without thinking about these words.

As for Bao Zhao, his eyes become brighter the more he asks.

Guo Shen was also full of excitement.

Since childhood, he can finally meet a teacher who can solve all the problems in his heart!
Later, what made Guo An's eyes widen even more was that while the eldest son of his family was chatting with Old Man Bao, he actually skipped him and directly became his disciple.

Guo Shen took the tea, served it to Bao Zhao, and performed the apprenticeship ceremony.

"Student Guo Shen meets the teacher!"

Bao Zhao also looked happy and accepted it happily. "Okay, okay, hahaha, I didn't expect that I would be able to meet a satisfactory disciple after becoming a professional official. It's true that every loss must be rewarded!"

"Congratulations to Mr. Bao, for gaining a good disciple!"

"Congratulations to Your Highness, Your Majesty, for being your mentor!"

On the side, Guo Bingyong, Guo Zhi and others were immediately filled with congratulations.

Afterwards, Guo Shen directly took the Shu Xiuyu gift from Guo Ang and placed it in front of Bao Zhao.

"Teacher, this glass tea set, as well as the glasses made of pure gold, as well as these classics, are carefully prepared for you by my father. Do you think they are suitable?
If it doesn’t fit, you can ask your father to change it again..."

Seeing this, a trace of surprise flashed in Bao Zhao's eyes, "Such a precious thing?"

Regarding these, Guo Shen looked indifferent, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, these objects may be more expensive in other places.

But in my Shunde County Prince’s Mansion, they are all used by my own family! "

"Ok!"

Bao Zhao nodded slightly, took off the glasses on his nose, and began to test the glasses handed over by Guo Shen.

At the same time, he also said: "Shen'er, money is just a means for us to live or do things. From now on, you must not pay too much attention to money!"

"Teacher, disciple knows!"

"Very good……"

Everyone was having a good time, and Guo An, who had been sitting on the side, turned darker, as if he had become an outsider.

Even the eldest son he had worked so hard to cultivate seemed to have been snatched away by the violent old man.

As expected, he is a person who can force Zhu Laosi to eat Xiang!
Although there was no Emperor Jianwen in this time and space, Bao Zhao did not go to Peking as an interviewer.

He didn't have enough energy to deal with Zhu Di.

But the old man's ability will not disappear.

As long as this little brat of mine can imitate the skills of the old man Bao Zhao, he will have nothing to worry about!

As for Bao Zhao, he was even more satisfied with Guo Shen, his disciple.

Not only is he well-read in the books of sages, but he is also so smart and intelligent. Although he is still a bit lacking in worldly sophistication, he is enough to be the successor of his mantle.

Now, when I looked at Guo An, I was even more pleased with him.

……

And this will.

Inside the palace.

Yesterday, Wang Zhongkuan, Cui Wei and other northern gentry spent an afternoon writing, plus a whole night's apology form, as well as the confession and confession, which were finally delivered to Zhu Di.

Zhu Di and Prince Zhu Gaochi each opened a stack and began to read slowly.

After quickly reading through the stack in his hand, Zhu Di stared at Wang Zhen below.

"Have you checked to see if there are any lies or concealments in what these gentlemen wrote?"

Wang Zhen said hurriedly: "Reporting to Your Majesty, time is tight, and the minister did not do much to investigate.

However, these gentry are all cunning, and there should be something concealed about their crimes and money.

As for the falsehoods in the report and confession, Wei Chen has already told them in advance that they will be investigated and dealt with strictly. Presumably, they should not dare to write something false! "

"Ok!"

Zhu Di nodded slightly, he felt the same.

On the side, Zhu Gaochi's face was full of anger, "These gentry really deserve to be killed, they are simply the worms of the Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Di ordered Wang Zhen again: "Send people to protect those gentry.

In addition, send more manpower to investigate the crimes on these papers one by one! "

"The minister obeys the order!"

Wang Zhen responded and walked quickly.

Zhu Di then ordered to Yishiha on the side: "Summon Prince Shunde!"

"The slaves obey the orders!"

After Yi Shiha left, Zhu Di sighed softly and looked at Zhu Gaochi.

"Prince, your grandpa didn't kill all those gentry when he was alive. Do you know why?"

Hearing this, Zhu Gaochi's expression dimmed and he said slowly: "Go back to my father, because only those gentry are here, so I, the Ming Dynasty, have enough manpower to govern every village under the Ming Dynasty!"

"Yes!"

Zhu Di snorted coldly, "However, those gentry relied on this to do whatever they wanted all day long, regardless of the court's laws.

That time in Kaifeng Mansion, Guo Qing really solved a big problem for our Ming Dynasty! "

A glimmer of light flashed in Zhu Gaochi's eyes, "Teacher can always come up with some unexpected ideas!"

"This time, as long as we sort out all the gentry and officials in the north, our Ming government will be much clearer..."

"Father Emperor Shengming!"

……

Another moment.

Yi Shiha hurriedly walked in.

"His Majesty!"

Zhu Di frowned, "What happened?"

Yi Shiha hurriedly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the guards at Shunde County Prince's Mansion said that the Prince took the prince to the Jiangjun Mountain test field early in the morning, but he has not returned yet.

The servant has sent people to the Jiangjun Mountain test field! "

"Went to the Jiangjun Mountain Experimental Field?"

Zhu Di couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything else interesting to see in the experimental field now?"

"Your Majesty, we should only be planting rice seedlings now!"

Yishuha thought for a moment and then whispered back.

"Planting rice seedlings?"

Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi couldn't help but be stunned.

“What’s so interesting about transplanting rice seedlings?”

I lost my heart and didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, Zhu Di did not continue to ask.

……

But the eunuch sent by Yi Shiha ran all the way.

After entering Zhuangzi, under the leadership of a guard, we came to a group of farmers who were sitting on a field ridge and looking at planting rice in the distance.

The eunuch hurried forward to greet him.

"I see you, Your Highness, the Prince!"

"Your Majesty is looking for me?"

Guo An asked directly.

The eunuch nodded hurriedly: "Your Highness is wise, Your Majesty summons you!"

"I'll tell you, and then I'll let you into the palace!"

Guo An got up and walked into the village.

He told Guo Shen and Bao Zhao about His Majesty's summons to him. After explaining it, Guo Shen was asked to stay in the village.

In this regard, Guo Shen, who had just found a satisfactory teacher, was very happy.

However, when Guo An was about to leave, Bao Zhao sighed slightly and pulled Guo An aside.

"I wonder if Mr. Bao has anything to tell me?"

“Your Highness, I shouldn’t have said these words originally.

But this child Guo Shen can pass on my mantle. I don’t want this child to be implicated by His Highness, so I can only talk more! "

"Involved?"

Guo An was full of surprise.

Bao Zhao said: "Your Highness, the southern gentry was killed by the Jin Yiwei last year.

This year, only the northern gentry is left.

This time, His Majesty has summoned you for this reason.

However, the royal family and the gentry have always shared the world. If you always go against those gentry like this, it is not the way to achieve long-term peace and stability.

At this moment, although those gentry were facing the Jin Yiwei, they were in a state of collapse.

However, they are all officials representing the whole world.

After those gentry calm down, they will definitely accumulate strength again. By then, the Shunde County Prince's Mansion will definitely be retaliated against! "

"revenge?"

Guo An smiled helplessly, "Bao Gong, why do you think your Majesty wants to make me the county king?

As for these things, the entire Ming Dynasty needs someone to do it. We can't just watch as they destroy the Ming Dynasty again! "

"Ugh……"
