Time flickered for nearly half an hour passed, although the sun was getting stronger and stronger at this time, but both of them felt that they were almost soaked, so Chen Xu took Qin Shihuang to the shower room to experience a tap water and shower head, rinse it again, and after changing clothes under the service of several maids, lay on the recliner and drink chilled fruit vinegar, and watched a group of palace maids and maids Yingying Yanyan standing in the shallow pool and playing with the child, one by one soaking wet, revealing various temptations under the translucent thin skirt.

Qin Shi Huang glanced at Chen Xu, his cheeks twitched slightly, probably thinking that his group of daughters were also playing in the pool like this, and a certain Hou Ye was lying here and watching.

After Chen Xu drank a bottle of fruit vinegar, Fusu, who had already been dressed and standing under the pergola, hurriedly walked over and said, "Qinghehou, you should teach Ziying a lesson today, when do you think it is appropriate?" ”

"Right now!" Chen Xu stood up.

Fusu hurriedly ordered a group of palace maids to get Ziying up from the pool, dry it and get dressed, although Ziying didn't want to get up yet, but in the face of his father's cold eyes, he still didn't dare to resist, and after getting dressed and drying his hair, he followed Chen Xu out of the swimming pool.

Qin Shi Huang and Fu Su also followed, followed by a large group of Xuanwu guards and palace maids, and after coming to the study, these people were ordered by the emperor to stay outside the door for a distance of ten zhang and were not allowed to approach.

Facing the emperor and Fusu to listen to the lecture, Chen Xu was already prepared, so after inviting the emperor and Fusu to take a seat, Chen Xu first asked about the reading and literacy situation as usual, and asked Ziying to write this sentence again, and after a few words of encouragement, he told a fable "Carving a Boat for a Sword".

In fact, the protagonists of many fables in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were Chu people, such as painting snakes and adding feet, such as Ye Gong Haolong, etc., because in the minds of the people of the Central Plains, Chu is a barbarian, stupid and stupid is suitable for ridicule.

The story is very simple, after Chen Xu finished speaking, he asked Ziying with a smile: "Ziying, what does this story tell us?" ”

"Teacher Hui, this story tells us not to move when we are on the boat......" Under the gaze of Qin Shi Huang and Fusu, Ziying stood up a little timidly and replied.

"Nonsense!" Fusu couldn't help but be furious.

"Qinghe Hou teaches, how can you show it?" Qin Shi Huang glared, and Fusu hurriedly apologized in fright.

Chen Xu looked at the little kid in front of him with a smile, touched the top of Ziying's head and said: "Yes, yes, you really can't move around on the boat, otherwise you may fall into the water, this Chu native is precisely because of the chaos, so he dropped the sword into the river." ”

Fusu couldn't help but want to speak, but after thinking about it for a while, he forcibly held back his words.

"Teacher, you can't move around on the boat, what if the baby wants to pee? Every time a baby learns to ride a horse, he keeps wanting to pee. Again, Ziying asked a strange question that only a child can have.

Chen Xu has three black lines floating on his forehead, but it is the same as wanting to pee when riding a horse and wanting to go to the toilet as soon as many people enter the examination room, it is because of nervousness, called nervous anxiety syndrome, which is a normal psychological reaction.

As for Ziying's unbelievable question, not only did Fusu clench his fists tightly, but Qin Shi Huang, who was listening, also shook his hand and tore off one of his beards.

"Ziying, what do you think of His Majesty the Emperor?" Chen Xu pointed at Qin Shi Huang and asked.

Chen Xu's question came suddenly, not only Qin Shi Huang was stunned, pinching a beard and not speaking, Fusu also let go of his fist in a daze.

Fusu turned his head to look at Qin Shi Huang, and said a little nervously: "Grandpa Huang is the most powerful king, he swept away the Six Kingdoms and became an emperor, and he has traveled to many places, everyone is afraid of him, Ziying wants to conquer the world and be an emperor like Grandpa Huang!" ”

"Ziying~" Fusu couldn't hold back any longer, his face changed drastically, and he jumped up and shouted angrily.

"Presumptuous!" Qin Shi Huang also slapped the chair and stood up, just when Fusu thought that the emperor was going to angrily reprimand Ziying, Qin Shi Huang pointed to Fusu outside the door and said, "Get out!" ”

"Me!?" Fusu was stunned for half a minute, and then opened the door with a frown and walked out.

"Don't be afraid, Grandpa Huang didn't mean you!" Qin Shi Huang sat down again with his beard on his beard.

Ziying shrunk his neck and glanced at Chen Xu, Chen Xu comforted and said: "Here in the teacher, Your Majesty can't punish you, what you said just now is very good, a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier, you have such ambitions, it is indeed the courage that an emperor should have, but is there an emperor in the world who is afraid of riding a horse and riding a boat?" If there is, it is an unqualified emperor, His Majesty patrols the world by car, horse, boat and boat, all the way bumpy and tired, and has encountered stormy waves on the sea, the big ship may capsize at any time when it is bumpy and shaking in the waves several feet high, all the ministers who follow the trip are frightened and afraid, only His Majesty does not move like a mountain, does not experience wind and waves, how can he know the fury of the sea, and not being afraid of danger is the courage that the emperor should have, you have to remember, riding a horse is the most basic requirement of a man, so don't be nervous next time, As long as you're not nervous, you don't want to pee! ”

"Ziying remembers, you must not be nervous next time you ride a horse!" Ziying bowed respectfully.

"Well, that's good!" Chen Xu touched the baby's head for a moment and praised it, and then asked the beginning question again: "What does the carving boat ask for the sword to tell us in addition to telling us that we can't move around on the boat?" ”

"Also told...... He also told ......" Ziying thought about it countless times in his heart, and finally said: "He also told us that we should hurry down to the river to catch it when the sword falls!" ”

"Yes, very good!" Chen Xu praised again, "The sword fell into the river, but the boat is moving, and the sword will not move with the boat, so it is useless to carve a mark on the boat, which tells us a truth, everything in heaven and earth is changing with time, and nothing can be taken for granted to understand, we must consider the relative laws of things rather than sticking to the rules and only see a certain aspect, we must not make the mistake of this Chu people in our daily work, we must see the relative changes of things, and summarize the laws. Next, the teacher will tell you a math problem......"

Chen Xu took out a small blackboard and chalk and began to teach Ziying a lesson.

"A small boat has to cross a hundred zhang wide river, and the boatman rows at a speed of twenty zhang per hour, how many minutes does it take to cross this river?"

Qin Shi Huang was naturally not interested in such a simple mathematical problem as Chen Xu, so his eyes fell on Chen Xu's desk, looking at the piles of various strange-shaped tools on it, as well as stacks of manuscript paper and all kinds of strange graphics and simplified Chinese characters of notes, and immediately began to look at it with great interest.

The drawings on these manuscript papers are all things that Chen Xu knew in his later life, airplanes, cars, ships, rockets, trains, bicycles, televisions, etc., and the simplified characters are also very scribbled, some of which can still be recognized carefully, but most of them are plausible and unrecognizable.

Chen Xu didn't pay attention to Qin Shi Huang's reading of his manuscript paper, but used the line segment method to explain the solution to the itinerary problem to Ziying very carefully.

Half an hour later, the lecture ended, and Chen Xu rewarded Ziying with a lollipop as usual.

"Ziying, you go out first, I have something to say to the young master!" Qin Shi Huang put down the manuscript paper in his hand.

"Yes, grandson retires!" Ziying politely bowed and left the room.

Chen Xu knew that Qin Shi Huang must have something to say, so he went to close the door and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has something to say, please listen!" ”

Qin Shi Huang waved his hand and said: "Aiqing, please sit down, I came here today, first, I want to come to see the boiling pool that has been passed down in my harem, and secondly, I also want to listen to Aiqing's lecture to Ziying, the story of Tang Wang and Wei Zheng told by Aiqing last time benefited me a lot, today's class is entertaining, and it is also full of novelty to educate Ziying with fables, but at this moment, Zhou Qiu Jian I remember that it seems to be a story in "Lu's Spring and Autumn"! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Chen Xu nodded his hand, "When the minister first came to Xianyang, His Majesty gave the Lu Xiangfu to the minister, and the minister found a bookcase of bamboo slips when he was cleaning up the study, which is a "Lu's Spring and Autumn Period", so the minister arranged for someone to organize this book into a book, and he will look at it in his spare time on weekdays. ”

Regarding the grievances and grievances between Qin Shi Huang and Lu Buwei, Chen Xu still knows a rough idea, but they are all based on historical legends and stories, and the real reason is probably best known only to Qin Shi Huang.

Qin Shi Huang was silent for a long time and then said: "Lu Yuan has a great kindness with me for a long time, I dare not forget it all night, but then he was too powerful and had the heart of rebellion, I had to issue an order to reprimand him, I never thought that he would drink and die, his death was not my original intention, so Lu Xiang's descendants are treated kindly, even if Lu Xiang's mansion is vacant, but I have never touched a cent, last year I toured the southeast and met Aiqing, I knew that Aiqing must be the person who helped me the most in addition to Lu Xiang, so I gave Lu Xiang's mansion to Aiqing to live, I also hope to get Aiqing's strong assistance. ”

"Your Majesty rest assured, since the minister promised to go out of the mountain to assist His Majesty, he will definitely not break his word, but the minister is a mountain village man, and he is used to being idle, so this kind of thing is a torture for the minister, so the minister moved to live in another courtyard outside the city, not because the minister is lazy, but he is not used to the noise and mediocrity in the city!"

"I know that although Aiqing does not go to the court to discuss politics, the Academy of Sciences and the factory newspaper are well managed, and the history of the bookstore has also been prepared, including the restructuring of the three provinces and six ministries, the currency reform and even the sweeping of Henan and the attack on Hebei are all the credit of Aiqing, what Aiqing did is not only clear to me, but also clear to the Manchu Dynasty civil and military ministers and the people of Xianyang, so I came today to thank Aiqing for all this he has done for me and Daqin, and Aiqing is worshiped by me!" After Qin Shi Huang finished speaking, he stood up and bowed his hand to Chen Xu deeply.

"Your Majesty, the great courtiers dare not accept it!" Chen Xu hurriedly stood up and returned the salute.
