Chapter 29: What to Teach?
Today is the day when Xiao Wu enters the palace.
Sitting in the carriage with his father, Xiao Wu looked at Xiao Zicheng's twitching face, and didn't know what to say. And Xiao Zicheng, looking at Xiao Wu's Taizu Golden Immortal Armor at this time, felt uncomfortable.
"That ......" Xiao Zicheng was organizing the language, "Do you have to wear this?"
Xiao Wu nodded solemnly, "I told my mother that a man has gold under his knees, and he only kneels to his parents. Xiao Wu quietly changed "mother" to "parents".
Xiao Zicheng listened to it and thought to himself, "Heaven and Earth Monarch is a teacher, does my son attach so much importance to family affection?" but still said, "Your armor will make the courtiers have some thoughts, as if my Xiao family is relying on the ancestral shadow to bully people." β
Xiao Wu grinned and waved his hand, "Don't worry, father, even if the courtiers have opinions, can they still beat me?"
β......β
Xiao Zicheng is depressed, why are you still chatting like this? The key question is, the courtiers who salute you also include your father and me? This bastard must have done it on purpose~! Forget it, no matter what.
Xiao Wu is now a third-rank military attachΓ©, and he should have been standing in the front of the military attachΓ©, but now he is wearing a golden armor and sitting at the front of the military general.
After the officials worshiped the emperor, they had to salute the generalissimo of the Shang army. One by one, they motioned to Xiao Zicheng with their eyes, "Your son will come to the court every day in the future?"
Xiao Ziwei wanted to pretend that he couldn't see it, but they were all colleagues, so he had to continue, and he could only reply with his eyes, "No, no." β
Morning to deal with routine official business, Xiao Wu almost fell asleep when he heard it. Hearing the eunuch finally shout "retreat", he stood up and was about to go out, but was stopped by Xiao Zicheng. "Go with the inner supervisor to the imperial study to see His Majesty and the Prince. β
Xiao Wu patted his head, "Oh, I have to live in the palace today!" Seeing the inner eunuch walking towards him, he hurriedly pulled Xiao Zicheng to the corner and said, "Dad, I have something to ask you." β
Xiao Zicheng heard "Please", this must be a big deal! He smiled and said, "I will continue to let Xiao Fang buy medicinal materials, you don't have to worry about this." β
Seeing Xiao Wu shaking his head, Xiao Zicheng hurriedly showed a look of listening. But I heard Xiao Wudao, "I'm not at home, Dad, you have to go home and sleep every day!
Xiao Zicheng's face turned green, Nima, what kind of son is this? Don't you see so many ministers looking at us? The father of the scholar and the son of the generalissimo stand together and talk about this? Or the son tells his father! Besides, he is busy with official business and lives in the cabinet, you are really my son who fights with the son of the ninth prince for prostitutes?
Xiao Wu said to himself, "I originally promised my mother to accompany her to breakfast every day, but now it seems that it is a little difficult." Xiao Wu's eyes were slightly melancholy.
Xiao Zicheng's eyes softened, it turned out that this was the point. "Wu'er rest assured, my father will take care of it. After that, he looked at his son again, "My son also needs to be careful in the palace, and he must not be distracted." β
Xiao Wu solemnly clenched his fists, "Father rest assured, son must be cautious in everything." β
Xiao Zicheng nodded. At this time, the son was wearing this golden armor, and he had a dusty temperament after cultivating, which couldn't help but reassure.
Xiao Zicheng took another deep look at his son and turned to leave. He was relieved, as if he had forgotten his son's glorious deeds of robbing the people's daughters, the goodness of Longyang, and running naked to the moat......
The inner eunuch led Xiao Wu all the way through several palace walls and stopped in front of a slightly smaller hall. But I saw a plaque with three big characters written "diligent fasting", the hall was not high, but the interior was very wide.
The inner prison went in to make a report, but did not come out for a long time. Xiao Wu was extremely bored, and used eavesdropping and peeping, but the peeping technique was not good, but the eavesdropping technique performed well.
I only heard a young man's voice say, "What is the father going to ask Marshal Xiao to teach the child?" Xiao Wu grinned at the corner of his mouth, this should be the crown prince, right?
The Emperor's voice, "What does the child think he can teach?"
The young man said, "It's good to teach anything, the child just thinks that Marshal Xiao must be good." β
The Emperor's teasing laughter rang out, "Just by the conversation he had with you?"
The young man affirmed, "Doesn't my father think that he must not be simple? The child asked him about the way of governing the country, but he asked the child about the way of cultivating immortals, he meant that this way was lofty, but he didn't want to teach him directly. β
The Emperor said, "And then?"
The young man laughed and said, "The child said that he didn't know the way to cultivate immortals, but he said, 'The way to govern the country, the meat eaters seek it, and he doesn't know it'." The child wanted to have some friendship with him, but he said that 'wine and meat are friends' and did not want to have a deep friendship. β
The young man calmed down and said, "Father and the emperor thought that originally he, Yang Zhen and others all entered the East Palace to study with their children, but he just wore the Taizu Golden Immortal Armor, but now he has become the general of Pingnan of Zhengsanpin, and he has become the teacher of children." Father, don't you think he is a man who works step by step and scheming, but has no intention of fighting for the court?"
The emperor nodded heavily, and Xiao Wu nodded directly outside.
Xiao Wu couldn't help but sigh, "Wow! It turns out that the guy that day was the prince!" and then sighed, "Ah, it turns out that I am such a smart person!" For a while, he even felt that he had crushed many people in terms of IQ.
The emperor said, "My father originally only wanted to use his official position to get Xiao Zicheng's loyalty. But today's Xiao family is not what it used to be. β
The prince said, "Father, the Xiao family has been virtuous for generations, and Xiao Wu is even more talented. β
The emperor laughed and said, "Since my son thinks he is a great talent, then I will treat him with sincerity, accept his heart, and gain his benefits." But I don't know what my son is going to tell him to be a servant?"
The prince smiled, "The child didn't think about it. Yang Zhenzhi's father knew about it, but Marshal Xiao could make Yang Zhen deflated. Hehe, the child thinks that as long as Marshal Xiao wants to speak, it must have a reason. β
The emperor said, "Then Xuan will come in and take a look." β
Xiao Wu walked into the hall and said as usual, "Shu Weichen is in armor and can't pay full salutes." β
The emperor was used to this, and the prince looked straight at him and greeted Xiao Wu with his eyes.
"Excuse me. The emperor waved his hand, "From tomorrow, you will speak to the prince in the palace, I don't know what you are going to say?"
"If the prince likes it, then teach mathematics. Xiao Wu really thought about this, he knew that he was not able to do martial arts now, and what he could do was mathematics, physics and chemistry!
"???" the emperor and the crown prince stared at each other, "mathematics, what is mathematics?"
Xiao Wu straightened out his helmet, "Mathematics is the study of numbers. As the saying goes, if you learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, you will not be afraid to go all over the world! It is this knowledge that will teach the prince in the future. β
If we are emperors, as long as we do not go to the territory of the enemy's country, we will not be afraid to travel all over the world. He wasn't very interested, but now his curiosity was aroused, and the emperor asked, "Maybe you can talk about it in detail?"
Xiao Wu Yile, "A pool, the water inlet pipe can be filled with 500 catties of water per hour, the outlet pipe can be filled with 300 catties of water per hour, and the pool is full of 5,000 catties.
???Ah??? the emperor's father and son were confused in an instant.
"Ask again," Xiao Wu stretched out a finger, "a farmer, with chickens and rabbits in the same cage, with thirty-five heads and ninety-four legs, ask how many chickens and rabbits are in each cage?"
!!Ah!! after a while, the emperor said, "Can my son figure it out?"
The crown prince shook his head, "Generalissimo, why does this pool have to be filled with water while releasing water? Isn't this a waste?"
The Emperor also nodded, "Yes, it is not easy to keep chickens and rabbits in the same cage, is it?
Xiao Wu smiled calmly at this time, "Your Majesty, you can teach His Royal Highness the Crown Prince how to answer." β
The Emperor nodded, then shook his head again, "It's going to be this, what's the use?"
==|||
Xiao Wu had a black line in his head at this time, this is a math problem, can't you solve it directly?
It's not that Xiao Wu thinks this question is interesting, but in addition to mathematics, physics and chemistry, he can't figure it out if you ask him to teach the Four Books and Five Classics, and he doesn't have any skills to teach martial arts.
Xiao Wu learned from the great immortals, and waved his hand inscrupulably, feeling that there was a lack of dust in his hand, or he would get five stars for this 13 index. Now the emperor's father and son look at Xiao Wu, they are simply immortal, don't want it.
But he heard Xiao Wudao, "The officers and men of our army travel lightly, and they consume 300 stone of military rations every day, and then the military quartermaster arranges transportation and can send 500 stone per day." Excuse me, if we need 5,000 stone of military rations for siege operations, may I ask the prince, how long will it take for our army to store enough military rations?"
But seeing that the emperor's father and son's eyes tightened, although the actual battle may not be so, but in other words, it is immediately different.
"Ask again, our scouts found that there were 35 enemy flags in front, 4,000 people under the command of the general, 2,000 people under the command of the partial general, and there are 94,000 troops sent by the enemy army to report the detailed work, may I ask, what is the distribution of the enemy's army generals?"
The Emperor stood up at once. He knew too well that in the past few years, he had been fighting with the Qi State and the Chu State for many years, and if he could combine the detailed intelligence with the intelligence of the scouts, especially if he calculated it like this, he would definitely be able to see a lot of things. What is the rank of the other party's generals? It can even be used to determine where the army is being transferred from and whether the army can be coordinated and mellow. It seems that this mathematics is not ordinary.
The emperor calmed down and said, "What does the emperor think?"
The prince walked up to Xiao Wu and bowed with his fists in his hands, "Disciple Zhao Tian, please give Master Xiao advice." β
Xiao Wu nodded, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." β
...... The air was suddenly quiet. Shouldn't it be a few words of modesty?
saw the prince's bitter gourd face turn his head to look at the emperor.
The emperor suddenly laughed and said, "Hahaha, is this what makes Yang Zhen's kid deflated?"
The crown prince nodded with a wry smile, and the emperor continued, "Since Marshal Xiao is your teacher, it is inevitable to give advice, do you still want to listen to those politeness?"
The prince's face was straight, and he clasped his fists and saluted, "The child is taught, and the emperor thanks for his guidance." He turned to Xiao Wu again, "I hope that Master Xiao will forgive Tang Tu's sin." β
Xiao Wu Yile, this emperor and the crown prince are good! Right temper! It's much stronger than those second-generation officials in his hometown.
