Daming: Refining zombies at the beginning, Lao Zhu was shocked

Chapter 218 Chapter 218: Both nobles and great scholars can be easily manipulated by Lao Jiu!

A breakdown in belief is a terrible thing!

Fang Xiaoru, who calls himself a scholar and the leader of Confucianism, naturally has his own persistence!

He believes that the rules set by his ancestors are the best and are also the rules of conduct that people in this world must abide by!

But when Fang Xiaoru saw the prosperity of the northwest and the smiles on the people's faces, Fang Xiaoru's inner persistence began to waver!

But he was still unwilling to face what he saw, so even when he met Han Wang Zhu Yue, he stubbornly believed that reform was an undesirable thing, a move that violated the rules of his ancestors and the people's will!

But Zhu Yue's words just now shocked him greatly, making him finally realize that what he insisted on might not be right!

"Mr. Fang, asking you to be the prince's teacher is not His Majesty's intention, but the King's request to His Majesty!"

"I have always felt that Mr. Fang should be a great Confucian who cares about the world and serves the people wholeheartedly!"

"This is why I have to say so much to you today!"

Zhu Li looked at Fang Xiaoru's lowered head and pondered, and spoke slowly.

"Thank you, Your Highness, I have learned a lesson!"

Fang Xiaoru's heart was shocked, and he suddenly showed a look of shame, and said to Zhu Li, cupping his hands.

"Just don't scold me in your heart!"

"Originally, you served as the prefect of Jining very well, but in the end, I was transferred to the Han Palace to serve as an advisor. If you feel that I have hindered your career, you can just say it directly and want to return to Jining and continue to be your governor. Magistrate, it’s not impossible!”

Zhu Yue waved his hand and simply gave the choice directly to Fang Xiaoru. If this stubborn old man was really stubborn, he would rather send Fang Xiaoru back to Jining to be the prefect!

After all, he didn't ask for Fang Xiaoru from the old man just to cause trouble for himself!

"I don't dare. Since Your Highness thinks highly of me, it is also my blessing!"

"Let Xiaguan be the prince's teacher, of course Xiaguan has no objection at all!"

Fang Xiaoru quickly expressed his attitude. As for whether he really had no opinion, only he knew it in his heart!

Although Zhu Yue said this, he also knew very well that even if he did not stay in the Han Palace, His Majesty would never let him go back to be the prefect of Jining!

Moreover, Fang Xiaoru had already wavered in his belief. He had not bothered to take a closer look at how the people in the northwest were living during his trip here before. He planned to stay in Hanzhong first and get to know the northwest in depth. Also have a deeper understanding of the reform policies formulated by the King of Han!

When the time comes, he will naturally have a judgment in his mind about whether it is right or wrong, right or wrong!

"That's all, whether you are really happy or not, since you won't leave, let's stay in the palace first!"

"From now on, Crown Prince Zhu Xiaqiu's schoolwork will be left to you!"

Zhu Yue gave instructions lightly. To be honest, if it weren't for Fang Xiaoru's ability, he would really be too lazy to talk to this stubborn old man!

Fang Xiaoru should be born in the year of Donkey. She has a very stubborn temper. The key is that she is not afraid of death!

If you were even remotely related to this guy, you would feel chills running down your spine!

Of course, if you meet a benevolent gentleman, like Zhu Biao, then Fang Xiaoru will be relatively safe!

But the current emperor is Zhu Yuanzhang, so they are completely two concepts!

What's more, since the time travel, even Zhu Biao, who is always kind and lenient, seems to have a tendency to move closer to the old man. Now I am afraid that even Zhu Biao, the prince, cannot count on him. !

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Fang Xiaoru didn't show any pretense anymore. After saying thank you, he retreated directly!

In this way, Fang Xiaoru, a great scholar of the generation, lived directly in the Han Dynasty Palace and became the teacher of Zhu Xiaqiu, the crown prince of Han Dynasty!

But Zhu Yue invited him here, which meant that he would teach Zhu Xiaqiu some Confucian classics, as well as the most basic literacy skills!

In terms of Chinese language, it should be no problem to leave it to Fang Xiaoru, but in other aspects, he would not expect Fang Xiaoru to be able to teach Zhu Xiqiu!

As for Zhu Xifeng, that kid better not let him appear in front of Fang Xiaoru!

Otherwise, I guess the old-fashioned Fang Xiaoru would be angered to death by Zhu Xifeng!

That guy Zhu Xifeng doesn't know what it means to respect a teacher, let alone someone who wants him to sit there and recite it every day, it's really hard for him!

On the first day of class with Zhu Xiaqiu, Fang Xiaoru was shocked by Zhu Xiaqiu's sophistication!

This also made Fang Xiaoru wonder, is the Prince of Han in front of him really just a baby under five years old?

Fang Xiaoru could not have imagined that Zhu Xiaqiu's maturity was only due to a time-travel experience not long ago, and because of this time-travel experience, the face-squeezing function at least made Zhu Xiaqiu's mind look like that of a man in his twenties!

Such a strange experience is not something that normal people can understand!

Even Cao’s own mother has difficulty understanding it, let alone an outsider like Fang Xiaoru!

Of course, while Fang Xiaoru was surprised by Zhu Xiaqiu's maturity, he was not too surprised. He just thought that the King of Han and the Princess of Han had trained him properly since childhood, making the prince look like a little adult!

This also gave Fang Xiaoru a different understanding of Zhu Yue and Princess Han!

In his opinion, the fact that Zhu Xiaqiu is so calm and possesses a character that a four- or five-year-old child should not have must be the result of the influence of his parents!

Of course, what surprised Fang Xiaoru even more was the copybook written by Zhu Xiaqiu!

Before officially starting to teach Zhu Xiaqiu, Fang Xiaoru naturally wanted to get to know this student in depth, and also brought over his past calligraphy practice copybooks to take a look at them first!

Mainly because I didn’t expect that Zhu Xiaqiu could actually write well at such a young age!

He even doubted whether these words were written by a child?

So Fang Xiaoru took advantage of Zhu Xiaqiu's calligraphy practice and ran over to find out what was going on!

But it didn't matter. When Fang Xiaoru saw the pen in Zhu Xiaqiu's hand, his eyes showed even more surprise!

This is actually not written with a brush?

What is this strange pen that this little guy is holding?

Didn't you see the inkstone and ink next to it?

Don't you need to use ink?

"Students meet Mr. Fang!"

As soon as he saw Fang Xiaoru, Zhu Xiaqiu immediately stopped writing in his hand, stood up and said hello to Fang Xiaoru.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to be polite. What is that you are holding in your hand?"

Fang Xiaoru stared straight at the pen in Zhu Xiaqiu's hand, unable to stop his curiosity!

"Is Mr. Fang talking about a pen?"

"This is a writing pen invented by my father. It is easier to write than a brush, and it is also more convenient to use. There is no need to dip in ink frequently!"

When Zhu Xiaqiu talked about the pen, he even looked proud.

The main reason is that Mr. Cao has been telling him that Fang Xiaoru is a great contemporary scholar, and asked him to study hard with Fang Xiaoru!

Hearing that Mr. Cao praised this teacher so miraculously, Zhu Xiaqiu felt somewhat dissatisfied!

No, no matter how powerful the scholar is, he is like a country bumpkin who has never seen the world. Even a pen made by his father can shock him so much!

"pen?"

"Can you show me?" When Fang Xiaoru heard Zhu Xiaqiu's explanation, he felt even more itchy!

He wanted to find out why this magical pen could write without ink.

Zhu Xiaqiu didn't refuse, and handed the pen directly to Fang Xiaoru, and also taught Fang Xiaoru how to write handwriting with the pen!

Soon, Fang Xiaoru roughly figured out the structure of this pen. It turns out that this pen does not use ink, but does not need to be dipped in ink as frequently as a brush!

It turns out that there is a water bladder that stores ink in the pen. As long as the tip of the pen starts writing, the ink will automatically stay on the paper!

And according to Zhu Xiaqiu, this pen can write about 10,000 words with one refill of ink!

This really saves so much time compared to a brush!

"Your Majesty, do people here in Hanzhong use fountain pens to write?"

Fang Xiaoru immediately felt in love with the pen!

With this thing, his writing efficiency can be improved by more than ten times?

"Don't be ridiculous, Mr. Fang. Only my father owns this pen. Those who can use it now basically get it from my father. No one else has it!"

Zhu Xiaqiu shook his head seriously and said.

"This... is such a good thing, why doesn't His Highness promote it?"

"If the world's scholars knew that there was such a writing tool in time, how many scholars would go crazy about it?"

When Fang Xiaoru heard this, she looked sad and distraught!

In his opinion, the King of Han should not keep such good things for himself, but should make more pens for all readers to use!

"Mr. Fang doesn't know something. The main reason is that this pen is too difficult to make. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is worth a thousand dollars!"

"And the ink used for writing is also specially made. Ink ground from ordinary inkstones and ink blocks won't work. Using the ink will damage the pen!"

Zhu Xiaqiu explained seriously.

"Is this thing so rare?"

Hearing this, Fang Xiaoru looked even more surprised.

However, Fang Xiaoru was naturally unwilling to just listen to Zhu Xiaqiu's words. He took the pen directly and ran to Zhu Li's study to ask about the pen face to face!

When Zhu Yue saw Fang Xiaoru holding Zhu Xiaqiu's pen and came to ask if this pen could be mass-produced, he also looked speechless!

This old guy really dares to think!

Zhu Yue took out these pens and writing ink from his storage ring. Fortunately, he had prepared enough before traveling. If it was only used by people around him, it would definitely not last more than ten or twenty years. question!

But if he really wants to popularize it, the little inventory he has in hand cannot even satisfy the writing volume of a city in Hanzhong for several days!

This is simply impossible!

Although the principle of a fountain pen seems simple, the most critical ink bag and pen tip cannot be easily manufactured in this era!

That's modern technology!

But Zhu Yue is also confident that he can find a substitute for the pen, and that is a pencil!

It will not be difficult to make pencils in the future, but the pencil's writing is too easy to erase, and there is no way to preserve the pen and ink for a long time!

After getting the definite answer from Zhu Li, although Fang Xiaoru was unwilling, there was nothing he could do!

"Although I can't promote pens on a large scale, there is no problem in getting one pen and supplying Mr. Fang with a bottle of ink every month!"

Zhu Yue laughed when she saw Fang Xiaoru's disappointed look.

It's obvious that this old stubborn man has a special liking for pens!

Originally, he thought that an old-fashioned person like Fang Xiaoru would prefer the traditional writing method of writing brush. Unexpectedly, he was so fond of fountain pens, which was quite interesting!

"Thank you so much, Your Highness!"

When Fang Xiaoru heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up!

Although I am a bit unwilling that such a good writing tool cannot be popularized, if I can use this kind of pen in my lifetime, I will definitely be able to leave more articles!

Although Fang Xiaoru is old-fashioned, it depends on the situation!

As a scholar, who doesn’t want to write as many articles as possible so that they can be preserved in the world forever?

This pen writes more efficiently, which is why he likes it so much!

Zhu Li also didn't expect that a pen could actually make Fang Xiaoru decide to stay in the Han Palace to teach. Is this an unexpected gain?

The third day of the twelfth lunar month in the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu!

Saijia Sutushan gave birth to a daughter, named Zhu Huiying!

This is also Zhu Li’s first daughter, so she has both a son and a daughter!

Not only Zhu Yue himself, but Zhu Yuanzhang, his grandfather, also came from Xi'an Mansion to Hanzhong Mansion because of Zhu Huiying's birth. He was extremely rare for this newly born little princess!

This can be regarded as loving the house and the bird, right?

Although Zhu Huiying is only the daughter of the vassal king now, and according to the rules, she will be a princess, but after Lao Jiu ascends the throne in the future, she will be a princess!

Putting aside the distinction between concubine and concubine, Zhu Huiying will be the eldest princess in the future!

After seeing Zhu Huiying, who was just a few days old, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Yue came to the study room, and the father and son started chatting.

"Lao Jiu!"

"How does Fang Xiaoru behave with you?"

If Zhu Yuanzhang wants to pay attention to someone, there are very few situations that he cannot pay attention to. For ordinary people, Jin Yiwei can control them to death!

But it also depends on the specific situation.

The Prince of Han's Mansion is an absolute restricted area for Jin Yiwei. Zhu Yuanzhang cannot let people stare at this place. There is no need at all!

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang was not particularly clear about what happened after Fang Xiaoru came to the Han Palace, but he was still somewhat curious in his heart!

Zhu Yue roughly explained some of the things that happened after Fang Xiaoru came. After hearing that this old stubborn actually decided to teach in the Han Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang was a little surprised, and he had to sigh in his heart, Lao Jiu still has the means. !

Whether they are Huaixi nobles or contemporary great scholars, they can be easily manipulated by him!

(Dividing line!)
