"Your Majesty, I'm hungry!" Liu Hongjian was very straightforward.

There was no way, so I got up early this morning and stood in the court for a while, then pulled me back for two hours.

Besides, just this is the order. The two cute little wives at home must have prepared all the food and are waiting for him to go back. How could they be so troubled!

"Come here, please tell Shangshen to supervise the meal!" Chongzhen was calm and relaxed. He liked to see Liu Hongjian being crazy and helpless.

"The emperor will not let me leave, but is there anything else?"

You are too deserted here, and there is no girl to accompany you. Liu Hongjian really wants to give Chongzhen a sentence, but he changed the words when he spoke.

Chongzhen didn't say anything, and he was in a short time. A row of small yellow doors came into the east gate of the warm pavilion with delicious dishes.

"Come on! The prince came to the warm room for dinner!"

Well, Liu Hongjian finally knew why Chongzhen didn't let him go.

"The prince is not young anymore. Since you are the prince's grand tutor, you should take on the responsibility of this position!" Chongzhen said earnestly.

Liu Hongjian curled his lips. He was only five years older than the crown prince Zhu Ciyang. What can he teach him?

What is this? He taught me almost the same!

"Come on, Youming, don't wait for him, just have a meal!" Chongzhen picked up the chopsticks and signaled Liu Hongjian to take action.

Since Liu Hongjian got the word "Youming" and the first person to call him was the emperor, which made Liu Hongjian feel deeply uneasy. The emperor really treats him like his own nephew!

Since the last Hongmen Banquet, Chongzhen's treasury has stopped running away from rats, and the diet in the palace has improved a lot, at least it seems to be the case in front of him.

Steamed chicken, roast goose, sturgeon, jade silk, belly and lungs are all fresh and fragrant, with two kinds of vegetarian dishes, peony soup, three fresh soup, plus a plate of eight treasure steamed buns, steamed cakes, and a plate of pastries.

The Ming Dynasty was not like the Qing Dynasty. The emperor had a lot of rules for eating. He was not allowed to persuade each dish more than a few times, this one or that, and dozens or hundreds of dishes were often served.

It seems that if you don’t serve so many dishes, you can’t seem to be noble. Not to mention that most of them were made many days ago, I guess the lid will grow hair after being lifted.

Later, Liu Hongjian figured it out.

It is probably because of the poor origin of Jiannu. After all, before entering the pass, Jiannu was still in a semi-feudal and semi-tribal system, and there were no rules. If he entered the pass, he was afraid of being criticized and overcorrecting it.

Liu Hongjian tasted the combination of meat and vegetables and soup. The taste was not bad, and it was many times better than the last stir-fried cabbage.

After a while, Prince Zhu Cilang came in wearing a soap-colored cotton robe and a sky-crowned crown on his head.

"My son, I pay homage to my father!" Zhu Cilang walked to Chongzhen and bowed.

The prince is a little too honest. This is the impression that Liu Hongjian had before. This is not possible. If the emperor is honest, he will not be bullied to death by the court officials.

"Yeah, sit down!" Chongzhen signaled Zhu Cilang.

"I've seen Master Liu!" After hearing Chongzhen's words, Zhu Cilang still treated Liu Hongjian first, which surprised Liu Hongjian.

According to etiquette, the ministers would kneel down to salute when they saw the prince.

"Ci-Yang, what have you learned today? Tell me about it!" Chongzhen picked up the wine glass and sipped.

OK, this is the parents' homework check, and Liu Hongjian looked dark.

"Go back to my father, today Master Sun teaches his son Mencius to meet King Hui of Liang."

"Oh, listen to me!"

"The king said: Old man! I came from thousands of miles away, will there be a benefit to our country? Mencius replied: King! Why do you have to say profit? It is just benevolence and righteousness. The king said, "How can you benefit our country?" The great officials said, "How can you benefit our family?" The scholars and common people said, "How can you benefit our body?" The upper and lower levels of fighting for profit, and the country is in danger.

…”

"Father, Mencius means that as a king, he should serve as an example in the world and treat the people of the world with benevolence and righteousness. Otherwise, the people will inevitably fight, and all officials will inevitably fight for interests, and the country will be in danger!"

"Well, it's good. You have to study hard! Don't be useless to play! Let's have a meal!" Chongzhen finally nodded with satisfaction.

After Chongzhen spoke, Zhu Cilang dared to pick up the chopsticks, but he only picked the vegetarian dish closest to him to eat.

No, this is too face. How can you fight against the ministers who curse others and don’t spit out dirty words? How can you revive the Ming Dynasty?

"Your Highness, eat chicken legs! It's good for your health!"

In front of Chongzhen, Liu Hongjian reached out and teared a chicken leg into the jade bowl in front of the prince.

Chongzhen just took a look and said nothing. Zhu Cilang was a little panicked. He had never seen such a shameless teacher, no, such a passionate and unrestrained teacher.

"Thank you, Master Liu!" Zhu Cilang hurriedly thanked.

"Yeah, you're welcome, eat!" Liu Hongjian looked at Zhu Cixuan with a smile.

Zhu Cilang:...

When he met the young master who had saved his life in front of him, he didn't plan to let him go, Zhu Cilang had to pick up the chopsticks and carefully pick them up and bit them.

"Is it tasty?"

"tasty!"

"That's right. Your Highness, if you like to eat, you will get it back. This meal is ready for people to eat. Why do you have to look forward to anything?

You are the prince, the prince above ten thousand people, not a puppet at the mercy of others. No one can point fingers at you except the emperor, know!"

Since those old scholars teach you how to be a saint, then I will teach you how to be a bad person!

Zhu Cilang was a little at a loss, which was contrary to the words of all the saints taught by the masters. He was not easy to answer yes or no, so he could only look at Chongzhen.

"Your Majesty, I cannot teach the prince's saint's way. If the emperor must let me be this man, I can only teach the prince how to be a human being and be a sage!"

Liu Hongjian also knew that the words just now were a bit too much, so he had to change his words.

Chongzhen seemed to have taken it seriously, but in fact he was thinking in his heart that his whole life was ignored and forgotten in the first seventeen years, and his last seventeen years were full of worries about state affairs and argued with court officials all day long about state affairs.

Is the saint really right? I treat my ministers with kindness and righteousness, but what do I get? I am impersonating and deceiving? Deceiving?

Wen Tiren, Zhou Yanru, Yuan Chonghuan, Chen Yan, Wei Zaode... Countless people flashed through Chongzhen's mind, making him sad, sad, and disappointed.

"Since I have appointed you as the prince's grand tutor, what you teach is your business. I will definitely not impose shackles on you! Every other day in the future, I will free up the other masters of the prince!"

Chongzhen drank another glass of wine, as if he had made up his mind.

"Thank you Master Liu's teachings, Cilang remembers it!" With my father's approval, Zhu Cilang seemed to be a little relaxed.

Liu Hongjian was relieved, otherwise he would teach him some astronomy and geography in the future and tell him that the place they live in is called the earth, which is round, not square, so wouldn’t he be beaten by Chongzhen?

It seems that there are quite a lot of things to teach!

Two young men who are only five years apart, plus a middle-aged man in his thirties, are eating silently and thinking about what will happen in the future.

Family affairs, state affairs, and world affairs, alas, don’t worry!

After lunch, Zhu Cilang returned to Wenhua Palace. Liu Hongjian treated Chongzhen with a gift and planned to go home.

But when I walked to the door, I suddenly remembered something again.
