Water Margin: My 108 Heroes Come from All Heavens

Chapter 64 What exactly is the Princess's Tutor?

"Gurgle!"

Liang Shan swallowed hard.

There isn't a single normal person in this Song Dynasty court.

He secretly glanced at Zhao Gou on the dragon throne. His brains were practically splattered out of his head, yet Zhao Gou remained unmoved, not even making a move to stop him.

Instead, he turned to Zhu Wushi and Yu Huatian, who had not yet joined the battle: "My two esteemed ministers, do you have any suggestions?!"

Yu Huatian, who had been silent all along, bowed slightly.

I was just about to speak.

But Zhao Gou raised his hand to stop him: "You don't need to say anything."

"His Majesty……"

Yu Huatian looked aggrieved.

Zhao Gou ignored him and turned his gaze to Zhu Wushi: "Divine Marquis, what do you think?"

"Lord Liang has made outstanding contributions. I believe he should be appointed as the Grand Tutor to the Princess, as the Sixth Princess is currently lacking a tutor."

Zhu Wushi stepped forward and bowed.

"The Princess's tutor?"

Zhao Gou frowned slightly, seemingly pondering the position.

aside.

Liang Shan's eyes widened again, wondering if there was something wrong with his ears.

He had heard of the Crown Prince's tutor.

How did a position like "Grand Tutor to a Princess" suddenly appear?!

really.

This world is still too crazy.

On the dragon throne.

Zhao Gou squinted, and when he was undecided, he subconsciously looked at the system interface of the [National Fortune Simulator].

[National Fortune Simulator]

[Current national fortune: 1490 million]

[Host: Zhao Gou]

[Number of simulations available today: 1/1]

[Would it consume national fortune to simulate the outcome of "appointing Liangshan as the Princess's tutor"?]

Zhao Gou made a decision and chose to start the simulation.

[Simulation in progress...]

[Day 1: Liang Shan is appointed Grand Tutor to the Princess and enters the palace to instruct the Sixth Princess.]

[The next day: Unlike other tutors, Liang Shan did not reprimand her severely. Instead, he took the Sixth Princess out of the palace to eat and drink, and strolled through the streets and alleys of Kaifeng...]

[Day Seven: Liangshan teaches the Sixth Princess to read and cultivate in a unique way, causing a dramatic change in her personality; she transforms from a mischievous girl into a well-mannered and knowledgeable young lady.]

[First Month: The Sixth Princess composed a poem at a palace banquet, stunning everyone present, and all the officials praised it highly.]

[The third month...]

[Simulation ended.]

This simulation consumed 1 units of national fortune, and the result was: Liangshan's teaching of the Sixth Princess was remarkably effective.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have received an extra reward:]

[1. Rare Elixir: Spirit Awakening Pill x1 (Can improve spiritual root aptitude after consumption)]

[2. Rare Cultivation Technique: The Art of Emperorship (Enhances the host's ability to manage his subjects)]

3. Rare Item: Immunity Token x1 (Provides immunity from death once)

Zhao Gou suddenly came to his senses, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

did not expect.

This time, he simulated another rare reward from Liang Shan.

It's more than what you get by simulating Cao Zhengchun, Yu Huatian, and Zhu Wushi combined.

This child.

He's his lucky star!

He looked at Liangshan, his eyes filled with undisguised affection.

"Gurgle!"

Liang Shan felt a chill run down his spine, sensing that Zhao Gou harbored ill intentions towards him.

After spacing out.

They looked at me with that kind of gaze.

"Cough cough."

Zhao Gou also sensed something was amiss and coughed, saying, "My dear ministers, please stop arguing."

In an instant.

The hall fell silent instantly.

The civil and military officials, who were beaten black and blue, all retreated to their original positions.

It was as if nothing had happened.

"I have decided to appoint Liang Shan as the Grand Tutor of the Princess and concurrently as the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, in charge of instructing the Sixth Princess."

Zhao Gou paused, then added, "He will also be granted a thousand taels of gold and a hundred bolts of silk to recognize his merits."

The ministers looked at each other in bewilderment.

Liang Shan stood in the third row, completely dumbfounded.

Is he really the princess's tutor? Teaching the princess to read?

This sixth princess.

Is she serious?

"Hurry up and thank the emperor."

Han Zhong, who was standing to the side, tugged at his sleeve and whispered a reminder.

Liang Shan then realized what was happening.

He quickly bowed his head in gratitude: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. Um... if I may be so bold as to ask, is the Sixth Princess's surname Zhao?"

The hall fell silent instantly.

Silence reigned.

Everyone stared wide-eyed at Liang Shan as if he were an idiot.

Zhao Gou was taken aback by the question: "What would my daughter's surname be if not Zhao?"

"That's good, that's good."

Liang Shan breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest.

As long as the surname is Zhao, then they should be of the Song Dynasty royal bloodline, which is not too far off.

It's not his fault.

He was truly terrified of this world.

If the Sixth Princess's surname is Sun and she is a monkey from Flower Fruit Mountain, then his position as Grand Tutor will be difficult.

"Court adjourned!"

The eunuch's high-pitched voice rang out.

Zhao Gou stood up, gave Liang Shan a meaningful look, and then turned and went to the back hall.

"Lord Liang, you...you'd better pray for your own good fortune."

Han Zhong, standing to the side, looked at Liang Shan with a hesitant expression, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

"Is this tutor to the princess dangerous?"

Liang Shan frowned, sensing that something was amiss.

"The Sixth Princess, she..."

Han Zhong looked around and lowered his voice, saying, "I've heard that this sixth princess is rather...lively, and has already driven away seventeen Grand Tutors."

"Oh?"

Liang Shan raised an eyebrow.

So she's a girl who hates school.

It's a bit of a hassle, but it's not a big problem.

……

Liang Mansion.

After the court session ended.

Liang Shan chose to skip work for a day and didn't go to Dali Temple. Anyway, he was now the highest-ranking official in Dali Temple, and no one was checking up on him.

I just got home.

Then they saw Liang Kangmin sitting in a grand chair in the courtyard, holding a bowl of tea and slowly sipping it.

I heard footsteps.

Without even looking up, Liang Kangmin said sarcastically, "Oh, isn't this Minister Liang of the Court of Judicial Review? What brings you back?"

Liang Shan's lips twitched a few times.

"Father, can't you speak properly?"

"Speak properly?"

Liang Kangmin put down his teacup, his face stern. "I'm asking you, why haven't you come home for several days in a row?"

"I'm investigating a case at the Dali Temple."

"Busy, everyone's busy. It's good that you're busy, so you don't have to worry about this old geezer..."

Liang Kangmin sighed.

Upon hearing this...

Liang Shan stood there, stunned.

I almost thought Liang Kangmin was also a time traveler.

All I did was stay at Dali Temple for a few days without going home. Was it really necessary to be so sarcastic?

Even public welfare figures have emerged.

He could only force a smile and lean over to massage Liang Kangmin's back.

"This is the money from the two Grandmaster-level weapons you sold last time."

After Liang Kangmin calmed down, he took out a stack of silver notes from his pocket and tossed them to Liang Shan: "I got 200,000 strings of cash from the sale, and I've deposited it all in Shen Family Bank for you."

"So many?!"

Liang Shan's eyes shone brightly.

With the money from this reward, he shouldn't have to worry about money for the time being.

Speaking of which...

We really have to thank Yagyu.

"I heard you recovered three million shi of grain this time, and His Majesty even bestowed upon you the title of Grand Tutor to the Princess?"

Liang Kangmin suddenly looked at him and asked.

How did you know?

Liang Shan was somewhat surprised. At this point, the Ministry of Personnel hadn't even approved the appointment documents yet, right?

"I know a few acquaintances in the government."

Liang Kangmin waved his hand and said casually.

"oh."

Liang Shan had no doubts.

"Your career has been going very smoothly lately, which is a good thing, but..."

Liang Kangmin abruptly changed the subject, looking distressed: "Your reputation is so bad, it's become a household name. I haven't dared to leave the house for three days in a row."
