The youngest son of Concubine Shu is the emperor's ninth son, commonly known as Xiaojiu. He is six years old this year.

Since Concubine Shu is favored, Xiaojiu is naturally loved by the emperor.

Because he was young, he still lived in Renhe Palace with Concubine Shu.

Early in the morning, Concubine Shu saw Xiaojiu and several young eunuchs noisily playing some monkey picking peaches trick.

Concubine Shu didn't take it seriously at first, but the nanny standing behind her reminded her...it seemed like the Ninth Prince was playing something wrong.

Concubine Shu took a closer look and was furious. What kind of obscene move was this? Someone must be trying to corrupt her son. She was so angry!

Shu Fei's political heart was ready to move, and she issued a warning that if her son had a bad reputation, he would never be qualified to participate in political struggles in his life.

This is definitely a conspiracy, a huge conspiracy!

They called Xiaojiu and the group of young eunuchs over, and interrogated them harshly for a long time, but they still couldn't get any information.

As soon as the emperor came home from his morning court session, he had Concubine Shu block the Taihe Hall to file a complaint.

She cried and made a fuss in front of the emperor for a long time, insisting that the emperor send someone to find out who had corrupted her son.

Your Majesty... I'm so busy, I don't have the mood to care about you. Besides, it's just children playing around, it's not as complicated as you think.

After a few coaxing words, he sent Concubine Shu away.

Also, a few days ago, the prince's youngest son, the emperor's second grandson, came to the palace to pay his respects to the queen mother.

The little grandson of the emperor was very smart and was deeply loved by the empress dowager.

After paying his respects, the young prince used his golden cudgel to sweep all the flowers, plants and trees in the Empress Dowager's yard. The Crown Princess was so frightened that she knelt outside the Empress Dowager's palace for a long time before she dared to return to the Crown Prince's Mansion.

The emperor complained to Zhou Chenli for a long time, all about Monkey King.

Zhou Chenli was happy when he heard what the emperor said.

There is only one monkey cub, Zhou Jiyuan, in the Duke Dingguo's mansion, but there are seven or eight monkey cubs of all sizes in the emperor's harem.

Haha, seeing that the emperor was also humiliated because of his own child, Zhou Chenli's heart was completely balanced.

Lehehe handed the picture album to the emperor and told him to read it to relieve his boredom, then he took the mynah bird back home.

He really didn't think of finding a teacher for Zhou Jiyuan in the palace. There were many people who could be Zhou Jiyuan's teacher, so there was no need to trouble the emperor.

Zhou Chenli went back to find Zhou Jiyuan and felt that his son was quite decent, at least he didn't cause the monkey picking peaches incident.

When asked about his teacher, Zhou Jiyuan insisted that he wanted Mr. Li to be his teacher.

Zhou Chenli certainly knew how capable Mr. Li was and agreed without hesitation.

Mr. Li was even more happy to accept this task. Writing stories was not as enjoyable as being a teacher to the young master.

Besides, the young master is a little naughty and slow in enlightenment.

If he teaches her slowly, she might be lucky enough to get on the young master's good side in the future, and he will also benefit from it.

So, the first lesson Mr. Li taught the young master was what a story is and what the difference between ideal and reality is.

It was an open-ended teaching method, telling Zhou Jiyuan to find information and write an article by himself, and after writing it, tell him and Xu Miao what a story is.

What are the differences between the world in the story and the real world? Zhou Jiyuan was also asked to work hard to find information about the origin, occurrence, and development of the story.

When Xu Miao saw the questions Mr. Li gave Zhou Jiyuan, he gave Mr. Li a thumbs up.

Xu Miao lectured Zhou Jiyuan on many principles all night long, but failed to change his mind.

Zhou Jiyuan was still immersed in his own world and couldn't get out of it, so he believed that the monster must exist somewhere in the world.

It's just that people haven't noticed.

He also gave Xu Miao the example of a mynah bird that could speak. If there was a bird that could speak, it must be a spirit.

Zhou Jiyuan saw the question Mr. Li had given him and tilted his head to ask Mr. Li, "Sir, I don't need to memorize the book, right? I just need to find some information to prove my point."

"Of course, young master. I gave you this proposition so that you can find some allusions in books and use the principles taught by sages to prove the point you support."

"Sir, may I quote the story of the Monkey King? It's the one you wrote for the storyteller."

Mr. Li smiled and said, "Of course, if you think that it is a sage's book, you can quote it."

Xu Miao...I'd like to see how you, Zhou Jiyuan, quote the story of Sun Wukong. Can this story be compared with the sage books left by our ancestors?

"And you only have two days to find information and write your article. On the third day, Miss Xu and I will be all ears to your brilliant ideas."

"Young Master, please don't let Miss Xu and me down!"

After saying that, Mr. Li put down some books and left with a smile.

He still had to rush back to polish the story of Monkey King.

Zhou Jiyuan's eyes widened: "Sister Xu, is this the end of the first lesson?"

Xu Miao: "It seems to be over. Didn't you see that the gentleman has left?"

Zhou Jiyuan jumped off the stool and shouted angrily: "This Mr. Li is a swindler. My father gave him a gold ingot and told him to teach me well."

"That's gold ingots! You took my father's gold ingots and this is how you teach me? It was only a quarter of an hour from the time you entered the room to the time you finished, and you didn't teach me anything. You just gave me a pile of broken books and left."

"At least let me recite one page of the book. You liar, you swindler. I'm going to tell my dad to get that gold ingot back from you."

“Making money is not easy!”

Xu Miao was amused after hearing this. Zhou Jiyuan was really twisted. It turned out that it was wrong for the teacher not to let you memorize the book. He had to hold you by the collar and make you memorize it.

When Xu Miao saw Zhou Jiyuan was about to go to Zhou Chenli in the front yard to complain, he quickly stopped him.

"Didn't Mr. Li give you a topic? You should follow his instructions carefully to find some information and write an article."

"After you finish writing the article, I'll check to see if what the teacher taught you is correct. If it's not, I'll go and complain to the Duke."

"If you sue Mr. Li, who will be your husband?"

Zhou Jiyuan thought about it carefully and it made sense. If a powerful person came, he would have to memorize so many books.

So Zhou Jiyuan happily opened the information left by Mr. Li and plunged into the books of sages, vowing to find the allusions that could explain the goblins.

After reading the information for two consecutive days, Zhou Jiyuan realized that he was a fool.

It turns out that the story was made up by people themselves from the beginning.

In primitive times, people were frightened, puzzled, and even worshipped natural phenomena such as the overlapping of four seasons and thunder and lightning.

Since they didn’t know how to explain these phenomena, they made up some stories to unify everyone’s understanding.

Therefore, many stories have different versions in different regions, which is related to the local human geography.

The story of Sun Wukong that Sister Xu told him is a myth and does not exist in reality.

Seeing that Zhou Jiyuan was no longer paying attention to any fairies these days, Xu Miao found some free time and told Zhou Jiyuan about the mynah bird.

Tell Zhou Jiyuan that this mynah bird is a good bird.

People started training mynah birds after they discovered that they could talk.

Moreover, training a mynah bird is very pitiful. You have to start training when it is only two months old, and starve it until it is willing to talk.

To speak a sentence well, one must practice it many times a day. Even a mynah bird often goes hungry in order to speak.

These are all artificial changes in animal habits to please people.

Moreover, the mynah bird left its mother at such a young age and was helpless. It had no family, let alone friends.

In short, the mynah bird is a pitiful bird.

Ask Zhou Jiyuan not to have any prejudice against him. After listening to Xu Miao's story, Zhou Jiyuan also felt relieved about the mynah bird.
