Yuwang's heart moved, on the one hand, he very much wanted Luo Xin's support. Although Luo Xin has now left www.biquge.info the military world, even a blind person knows that Luo Xin still has great prestige in the army. With the support of Luo Xin, it means that he has the support of the military circles. On the other hand, his lonely heart desperately needs a friend who can confide in his depression and hardship. At this time, he was able to put down his body to Zhang Juzheng, who had not yet become famous, let alone Luo Xin, who had great influence in the army?
Although his character is cowardly, it does not mean that he is stupid, but as the heir of the old Zhu family, he knows the way of the emperor better than ordinary people. Hearing this, he immediately nodded and said:
"No, then in the future, when no one is around, don't call me King Yu, call me Zaiyuan."
"Don't dare!" Luo Xin said hurriedly.
King Yu's face sank, and he said angrily in his dress: "Then I can only call you Master Luo." ”
Luo Xin smiled bitterly and said: "King Yu, even if you and I don't call the other party's title and position, you are older than me, how can I call you Zaiyuan?" Isn't this a loss of etiquette? ”
"This ......" Yu Wang paused for a moment, couldn't help laughing, and said in a deep voice: "Then how about you call me the eldest brother?" ”
"This ......" this time it was Luo Xin's turn to have a look of hesitation on his face.
"No, I'm the prince, you're the marquis, and it's not a violation of the rules for you and my brother to be commensurate. If you don't even agree to this, I'll call you Master Luo. ”
Although Luo Xin's face was still hesitating, he was happy in his heart. The homework he did last night was really not in vain, and Yuwang really longed for his support, and he really longed to have a confidant. This is also what Luo Xin hoped for, but he showed appropriate embarrassment, and when King Yu pretended to be angry, he immediately nodded and said:
"Big brother, it's better to obey your fate if you don't be respectful!"
"Good! Good! Good! King Yu applauded and laughed loudly: "Hahaha......"
The two of them talked and laughed and walked all the way into a school. Yuwangfu is very formal for learning, and has built a special school, although he is the only student.
When the two entered the school, Yuwang sat in the student's seat, and Luo Xin also sat in the teacher's seat. In fact, Luo Xin is no stranger to lecturing, but is very proficient. In his previous life, he also lectured at the university and was very proficient in this profession. Looking at King Yu, who was sitting opposite him, Luo Xin's face showed a kind smile.
He knew that he had to show his real skills, and if he just chatted with Yuwang, he might become Yuwang's friend, but it would be difficult to gain Yuwang's respect. Luo Xin's purpose is not only to be Yuwang's teacher, nor is it just Yuwang's friend, but the kind of relationship that is also a teacher and a friend. In this way, Yuwang not only has respect for him, but also has friendship, so that he can stand out among Xu Jie, Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng, Chen Yiqin and Yin Shidan, which are Yuwang's teachers, and make Yuwang rely on himself more.
"Yuwang...... Big brother, how far have you learned now? ”
When King Yu heard that Luo Xin wanted to ask, a rare hint of pride appeared on his face and said:
"No, although my knowledge is not as good as yours, if I am allowed to participate in the imperial examination, I don't think there is a problem in taking the exam after you."
"Oh?" Luo Xin's heart became interested: "Show me the articles you did before." ”
King Yu handed Luo Xin a stack of papers he had prepared, which he had prepared for a long time. Because every time Emperor Jiajing sent him a new teacher, he would first understand his knowledge.
Luo Xin took the stack of papers, flipped through them page by page, and as he turned the papers, Luo Xin's face showed excitement. This King Yu really didn't tell a lie, although his words just now were a little exaggerated, but there was absolutely no problem with the middle jinshi. After reading this stack of papers, Luo Xin put it down and looked at King Yu and said:
"Big brother, with your current knowledge, you don't need to learn these things in books anymore."
King Yu's expression was stunned, and then a look of joy appeared on his face. In fact, everyone who reads a book will find Baguwen boring. Yuwang has long been tired of reading. Now that I heard Luo Xin say that I don't need to learn anything from books, I still have the habitual fear of teachers in my heart, and said modestly:
"No, I have also read your "Confucius and Mencius" many times, and I have benefited a lot."
Luo Xin smiled and looked directly at Yuwang. It wasn't until the look on King Yu's face was a little unnatural that he spoke:
"Big brother, your future is not to go to the imperial examination."
"I ......" Yuwang's face flushed, and then he became depressed, "Then what is my future?" Father, he ......"
After all, Yuwang and Luo Xin are not familiar enough, which means that Luo Xin has not yet won the trust of Yuwang. So when King Yu said this, he was silent.
Luo Xin groaned for a moment, he knew more about King Yu at this time. Emperor Jiajing's indifference to King Yu and King Jing's pressing step by step have made King Yu lose his self-confidence. If he can help Yuwang rebuild his self-confidence, it will undoubtedly make Yuwang more dependent on himself. When a person loses self-confidence, regains self-confidence with the help of another. There is no doubt that the person who helps build self-confidence will become the spiritual pillar of the other person. Become the person he trusts and relies on the most.
"Big brother, do you think Your Majesty doesn't pay enough attention to you?"
"I ......"
King Yu's eyes flickered, his expression was complicated, and gradually a trace of wariness of Luo Xin appeared in his eyes, and at this time, King Yu began to suspect that Luo Xin was sent by King Yu to test and spy on him.
Seeing the trace of vigilance in King Yu's eyes, Luo Xin's face showed a more cordial smile and said:
"Big brother, let me analyze it for you."
Yuwang's eyes lit up, and he looked at Luo Xin longingly. King Yu, who was deeply lost and never recognized by Emperor Jiajing, no one knew how much his heart longed to hear good news, even a little good news.
"Big brother, do you think who are King Jing's teachers? Think about who your teachers are? ”
King Yu's expression was stunned, and gradually his eyes were filled with the brilliance of hope, and he heard Luo Xin's voice like a heavenly sound:
"Your first teacher was Xu Jie, what is Xu Jie's official position now? Cabinet Chief!
Your second teacher is Gao Gong, what is Gao Gong's official position now? Cabinet Vice-Assistant!
Your third teacher is Chen Yiqin, who is now taking over from Gao Gong Lingguo!
There are also Zhang Juzheng and Yin Shidan, both of whom are famous for a while. I firmly believe that these two people will also enter the cabinet in the future and become the pillars of the Ming Dynasty.
Your Majesty will make such a group of people the teachers of the eldest brother, don't you still understand? ”
Yuwang's face showed brilliance, and his face turned red with excitement. No one has ever said such things to him, but now that I hear what Luo Xin said, think about it seriously, it is really true. I couldn't help but be so excited that I even stuttered when I spoke.
"No, no...... You...... You mean...... Father, he takes a fancy to me? ”
"Yes!" Luo Xin nodded affirmatively.
"That'...... Why did his father ...... him?"
"Why don't you be the crown prince?"
A trace of vigilance appeared in King Yu's eyes again, but at this time, the desire in his heart overcame everything, and he was eager to know why his father didn't make him the crown prince, so he gritted his teeth and nodded:
"Yes!"
Luo Xin smiled: "This is to ask Tao Zhenren!" ”
King Yu looked stunned, and then asked cautiously, "You mean...... The two dragons don't see each other? ”
"Not bad!" Luo Xin nodded, lowered his voice and said, "Your Majesty thinks that if you are made the crown prince, then you are a dragon!" ”
Regarding the fact that the two dragons do not meet, Yuwang is also very clear.
In August of the thirteenth year of Jiajing, the emperor's eldest son, Zhu Zaiji, died of illness just two months after he was born. When Jiajing was still immersed in great grief, Tao Zhongwen told him about his latest research results, "The two dragons don't meet", and when he heard Tao Zhenren say this, Emperor Jiajing was immediately afraid. When two years later, when he had Zhu Zaizhen, Zhu Zaiyuan, and Zhu Zaizhen again, he was overjoyed, and he once again remembered that "the two dragons don't meet". It has only been three years since the death of his eldest son, and he still remembers that he decided to see these children rarely, and he will not be crowned prince.
Jiajing's mother stepped forward. The old lady talked hard to her son for a long time, and after a long time, Jiajing had to allow her son to go out of the cabinet to give a lecture. This year, Zhu Zaiqi was 14 years old. The prince's exit from the pavilion is different from that of mortals entering the academy, there is a set of etiquette and rituals that are very elaborate and complicated, and Jiajing, as Lao Tzu, must appear.
Just after the ceremony, Zhu Zaiyu fell ill and died not long after. Jiajing learned from the pain, and Jiajing strictly abided by the "two dragons do not meet" from then on, and was indifferent to the remaining two sons, Yuwang Zhu Zaiyuan and Jingwang Zhu Zaizhen, for a long time.
"This is Your Majesty's love for you!" Luo Xin continued to lower his voice and said: "Your Majesty is a cultivator, these two dragons can only hurt you, eldest brother, if they don't see each other, but not Your Majesty." This is the real reason why His Majesty has not made you the crown prince for a long time. ”
Yuwang's expression gradually became excited, the gloom and depression on his face were swept away, and a sense of confidence gradually emanated from his heart.
Luo Xin looked at King Yu, who was gradually regaining his self-confidence, and nodded secretly in his heart, but Luo Xin was a man in two lives, and he knew that the royal people knew, and he knew that he could not make King Yu's confidence burst, if King Yu believed that he would inherit the unification, his dependence on himself would be reduced, after all, he had just come into contact with King Yu, and Xu Jie, Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng and others had been with Gao Gong for a long time, I am afraid that at that time, King Yu would be closer to Xu Jie, Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng and others.
"Big brother, these are just speculations that don't make up your own. The so-called emperor's heart is unpredictable, after all, King Jing is still watching from the sidelines. If the eldest brother behaves slightly differently, the final result is unpredictable. ”
Yuwang's face changed dramatically, and his surging self-confidence fell, and between the ups and downs, he felt uncomfortable as if he was on a roller coaster. Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he stood up, bowed to Luo Xinshen, and said sincerely:
"Please don't teach me."
Luo Xin said softly: "First of all, today's conversation between you and me must be kept secret and not let the second person know. You must know that Your Majesty can't look down on others to figure out the emperor's heart. If it spreads, it will affect His Majesty's perception of you. No, today is also taking a risk to solve the doubts of the eldest brother. ”
Yuwang's face showed gratitude, and he saluted Luo Xin again:
"No, save for my brother, swear here for my brother, not only will the conversation between you and me not leak out half a sentence today, but even the conversation between us will not be spread out in the future."
"Good!" Luo Xin nodded and said, "If others ask, the eldest brother will say that I have been explaining to you the "Confucius and Mencius Combination" I wrote. ”
"Good!"
Yuwang nodded happily, and there was still a kind of excitement in his eyes. Under the suppression of Emperor Jiajing and the bag of several teachers, he had almost no secrets, like a transparent person, living a day of fear and walking on thin ice. Now he has a secret with Luo Xin, although this secret is small, but it makes Yuwang, who has never had such an experience, excited.
Of course, King Yu is not a stupid person, and he judged from this incident that Luo Xin was not the one who his father filmed and spying on him. How could a person who is willing to share a secret with you be someone sent by his father to spy on him?
"No, what are you going to teach me?" King Yu was also a little confused in his heart at this time, since Luo Xin was not going to teach him the Four Books and Five Classics, what were he going to give him?
"That's exactly what I'm going to tell you next!" Luo Xin said with a faint expression: "As a future emperor, you should be more concerned about the affairs of the court now. ”
Hearing Luo Xin's words, King Yu's shoulders drooped and said, "No, how dare I do that?" ”
Luo Xin smiled: "I didn't let you make your voice, but I can't ignore the affairs of the court." Only by constantly observing the situation in the court will you be able to determine who will be of use to you and who should stay away. ”
King Yu was silent for a moment and said, "No, in fact, I am also paying attention to the affairs of the court, and sometimes several teachers also talk to me." ”
"Then what do you think of the current situation in Daming?"
King Yu's spirit is a lift, he is also nearly thirty years old, even those who are not from the royal family care about the government all day long, talking about the government, how can he, a royal disciple, not want to care about the government? It's just that he didn't dare to show it, for fear of being learned by Emperor Jiajing, thinking that he wanted to seize power. And his teachers seemed to be very jealous of this matter, and hardly talked to him about the government, but only asked him to read the books of sages. He didn't have any friends, so he felt uncomfortable, but now when he saw Luo Xin asking about the government, he immediately became excited.
"The situation in Daming is not good!" King Yu looked at Luo Xin with burning eyes.
Luo Xin nodded, and praised in his heart, it seems that King Yu is just a cowardly character, but he is not stupid. No wonder after he ascended the throne, he would support Zhang Juzheng.
"Tell me more!" Luo Xin's eyes were full of encouragement.
