Today is the No. 15 day when the little prince officially starts class.

Several princesses in Baihua Pavilion took turns to go to the East Palace every day to check on Li Luosu and Taifu Duanmu's classes, and today it was the turn of the second princess, Li Yulan.

Li Motao sat by the window, resting his chin and looking in the direction of the East Palace: "I hope there will be some good news today, and all our painstaking efforts will not be in vain."

"Let's go with fate. There is no rush for this kind of thing. Sometimes if we intervene too much, it may have counterproductive effects."

Li Qinghe said while instructing Li Moli's dancing posture: "You should raise your hands here, otherwise the girls in the teaching workshop will not cooperate with you."

Li Moli, who raised her hands high and made a cup of tea, loosened her figure, rubbed her waist, and said, "How can we not be in a hurry, the end of next month will be the Lotus Watching Festival, and we will be in the Royal Garden at most Dancing, singing, presenting a gift, Little Peony is different. This is the first time he has shown his talents in front of the ministers and foreign guests. It is not a big deal if he loses face. What if he gets dismissed from office? Do? Then our efforts will be in vain.”

"Yes, besides, after this incident, the eldest sister will..."

"Sister? What's wrong with her?"

Li Haitang, who came over from the side, looked at Li Qinghe in surprise, and said, "Usually you don't hear anything outside the window, and it's fine if you only like to watch the girls in Jiaofang dance. Can you care about your own sisters at critical times!"

She looked at Li Motao who was still sad about spring and autumn by the window, and whispered: "I heard from my mother's place today that my father wants to choose a good husband's house for my eldest sister from among the foreign royals and nobles who are invited to watch the lotus festival." , so if the two of them have not settled down before the eldest sister gets married, she must be unwilling."

"Then do you think we should go to the temple in the south of the city to worship for the two of them?"

"Hey, Li Weixuan, can you stop making trouble!"

Li Haitang threw a copy of Yingying's biography at her, and said, "There is a Yuelao temple in the south of the city, what are you worshiping!"

Li Weixuan easily dodged the flying hidden weapon: "What if we can really reconcile? Yuelao's pink thread is so effective."

That's right, as former fairies in heaven, they knew that Yuelao had not only the red thread, but also the fairy artifact of the pink thread.The red thread is used to draw marriage, and the pink thread is used to mend the broken relationship between people.Yuelao also has other silk threads of various colors in his hands, which have different uses, but they haven't studied them.

Hearing the chatter of other people, Li Motao really wanted to beg Yuelao in his heart.

***

Yu Lingbo, the youngest son of Duke Yu's family, was born in Xiping in 18 years, and his elder Li Luosu was three years old.

Ten days ago, she was selected by Duanmu Yao to enter the East Palace, to be the prince's companion.

The sky was getting longer in the early summer, Li Luosu always went to bed late recently, and got up early for class during the day, if he was really sleepy, he would pile up the Four Books and Five Classics to block himself, and then lay down on the table to meet Zhou Gong.

"Prince...Prince, wake up..."

Seeing the prince getting closer with a ruler in his hand, Yu Lingbo knew in his heart that if the prince didn't wake up, he would be punished again, so he hurriedly reached out to poke him.

"Qingtai, don't make trouble... I'm sleepy..."

Li Luosu groaned, closed his eyes and slapped his hand away.

"The master is here!"

These four words were like a bolt from the blue, Li Luosu's body was already moving by itself before his mind cleared up.

"Oh? I didn't know that the prince is so smart that he can read books backwards."

Duanmuyao reached out to pat the back of Li Luosu's neck, and the cool touch of his fingertips woke him up completely.

Li Luosu buried his face in the Analects of Confucius, and glanced at the prince's face with a guilty conscience. He thought it was okay, but when he thought of the other party's sarcasm, he straightened his back and said in a desperate way: "That, that is, the prince's intelligence is the best in the world." Wushuang! This is not a heavenly book, but it is naturally understandable..."

The little guy shook his head with a proud expression on his face, which made Duanmu Yao find it funny. He had never seen such an upright person who was narcissistic.

"Then for today's homework, please ask the unparalleled prince to copy the Analects of Confucius and Bayi chapters backwards, and memorize them backwards. I will check them tomorrow."

Yu Lingbo breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, Taifu."

Li Luosu finally knew what it meant to shoot himself in the foot. He threw the Analects of Confucius on the table and said, "Who can bully others? You, a number one scholar, can only have people copy books." level."

"Isn't the prince confident in his memory?"

"of course not!"

Li Luosu finally understood the meaning of the word harmless to humans and animals, just look at the smiling face of the Taifu.

"Then if I do it tomorrow, I will save one day of homework."

Duanmuyao looked at Li Luosu's face, then raised his chin, and took out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe the corners of his mouth.

"Also, the prince must always pay attention to his appearance in the future. If the news of secretly sleeping in class and drooling is spread, it may damage your reputation."

"You're such a good old Fuli..."

He rubbed the corner of Li Luosu's mouth, and complained inarticulately. Now the smile on the Taifu's face is completely representative of the word insidious.

"What did you say?"

"...It's nothing, hmph."

A hero doesn't suffer immediate losses, so Li Luosu decided to keep the nickname "treacherous old fox" in his heart for the time being.

Duanmu Yao smiled and put away the handkerchief.How could he not understand the little guy's thoughts, but after all, he was a child, so he wouldn't take it to heart.

"Okay, let's come here today, get out of class is over."

Li Luosu was finally liberated. Although he had to copy books and recite texts backwards, he happily went to eat when he thought that the afternoon would be Taibao's class.

***

The first day of each month is the Great Court Meeting, and officials from all ministries must be present.

While waiting outside the main hall to go to court, Mei Shiliang came to Duanmu Yao's side, poked him and asked, "It's been a month since I became the prince and tutor, how do you feel?"

"If the Taifu can be replaced, I will definitely recommend you to be the one."

"Oh? Are you going to retreat?"

Mei Shiliang took a step back, raised his eyebrows and looked at his former classmates and friends.Duanmu Yurong is a person who never admits defeat, and no one can surpass him in school.

"How come... It's just that being a teacher is much more difficult than I imagined."

Duanmu Yao rubbed his forehead, feeling a slight pain in his head again.

"Is the prince not behaving well?"

"It's not just bad, it's really bad. Either he didn't do his homework or fell asleep in class, and even dragged his companion to skip class. I really feel sorry for that child Qingtai."

Speaking of Yu Lingbo, Mei Shiliang had also heard about this excellent young master of Yu Guogong's family, and immediately felt a little sympathetic.

"You must not tell Duke Yu about these things, otherwise he will definitely fight you, the person who pushed his precious grandson into the fire pit."

Duanmu Yao sighed, if Bai Zhu wasn't by his side, sometimes he really wanted to knock open Mei Shiliang's head to see what messed things were inside, and he always spoke without thinking.

"Qinghan, Yu Rong, what are you talking about?"

Qu Changlan pulled Tao Youran over and greeted the three of them.

"I'm talking about him and the prince."

Tao Youran looked at Duanmu Yao, and said, "I heard that you stripped the crown prince's clothes on the first day of class, and let him listen to the training in front of everyone, isn't it a little too much?"

"This isn't a bit too much. It's too much for a prince, right? Yannian, you really don't have empathy."

Qu Changlan looked at Tao Youran with a smile, but the latter didn't react too much, he rarely speculated on other people's thoughts.

Duanmuyao said: "It is a good thing to have self-esteem, but too much self-esteem is not a good thing for a king. The prince must conquer the people with virtue, manage his ministers with principles, and rule the country with laws. Only when his spirit is frustrated can he become a wise king."

"But I heard that the crown prince has a good relationship with General Tu. What if you and the crown prince get into trouble?"

Bai Zhu scratched his head, a little puzzled.

"I only teach him how to be a qualified king, other things have nothing to do with me."

Duanmuyao looked at Tu Shenshui standing in the distance. Although he and this eunuch were both masters of the prince, they only met face to face once. There are invisible walls.

"...Jiedu envoys and Dukes from all over the country have already stayed in the Sifang Pavilion in the capital. Representatives and envoys of the royal families of Chu, Liang, Dai and other countries have all set off on the road. The new emperor of Chu even came to invite him personally. Get ready for the imperial palace, just waiting for the distinguished guests to arrive."

After the report from the Minister of Rites, the old emperor was very satisfied.

The Lotus Watching Festival is one of the big festivals every year, and this year it is even more grand than ever. He looked at the Taifu and Taibao in the hall, and wanted to know how his precious son was doing with his studies this month.

"Teacher, Taibao, you have served as the master of the prince for more than a month, how is the situation of the prince?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, the prince is diligent and earnestly practices martial arts every day. His stature and posture have begun to take shape. Given time and more training, he will surely become a talent."

The sound of tea sinking into the water with wind and sand echoed in the hall. The old emperor nodded and asked Duanmu medicine again.

Duanmuyao replied: "The prince is extremely intelligent, and he learns very fast. If you teach well, you can become a master."

"Hahaha, it's very good, as expected of my son, if that's the case, then take advantage of the lotus viewing festival to take the test for the prince's homework in Yuyuan, and please take it seriously."

"The minister obeys the order."

"The minister obeys the order."

***

Going down to the back, Duanmuyao went to the East Palace.

Because Li Luosu performed well in the past two days, he can start class an hour later today.He is now wrestling and rolling with the white tiger in the tiger garden, and Duanmuyao stands under the old pine tree quietly watching on a whim.

The little prince was like an eggplant beaten by Shuang when he was studying, and he was more energetic than anyone else when he was not studying.In fact, Duanmuyao really liked to see Li Luosu's smile, which was as bright and charming as the peonies blooming in the capital in April. Unfortunately, he was the Taifu, so he couldn't let the prince let himself go.

"Ow!"

A howl interrupted Duanmuyao's thoughts. He looked forward and found that Li Luosu was holding on to the white tiger's tail, but a beast is a beast after all. I gave the little master a paw.

"Come on! Pass on to the Beast Tamer!"

Duanmuyao hurried over to protect Li Luosu behind him. After the animal trainer took the white tiger away, he pulled up the little prince's sleeve to check the wound. Fortunately, he regularly polished the white tiger's nails, so only a layer of skin was scratched.

"wait for me."

Duanmu Yao walked into the bookstore and came out with a medicine box.

"When did you put the medicine box?"

Li Luosu looked at the Tai Tuo with a puzzled face as he applied the medicine to bandage him.

"While you were sleeping on the first day of class."

"Are you actually good at medicine?"

"I still have a lot of things you don't know."

Duanmu Yao knew that Li Luosu had delicate skin and tender flesh, so he moved his hands gently, trying not to touch the wound directly.

The little prince stared at the Taifu's slender fingers, remembering the cool feeling when the back of his neck was touched every time he was lazy to sleep, he looked at the Taifu's face, usually he would disdain to pay attention to people he hated.The fine sunlight that leaked from the pine leaves sprinkled on Duanmuyao's snow-white skin, and Li Luosu was a little dazzled by the crystal light spots.He noticed that the Tai Tuo's eyelashes were long, and compared them with his fingers, it seemed that they were as long as his own.

"Then what medical skill are you good at?"

Li Luosu became curious, and felt that this Taifu still had some skills.

"Gynecology."

"..."

The little prince retracted his previous thoughts, and threw the Duanmu medicine that had just been moved into the "capable" column back into the "Perverted Old Master" category.

"Okay, don't get in the water for the next two days, and don't go to Huyuan for the time being."

The bandage on the arm was wrapped neatly and beautifully, and it was tight enough. Li Luosu moved around a bit and felt that there was nothing uncomfortable about it.

Duanmu Yao packed up the medicine box and said: "Even gentle animals have tempers. Rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, let alone tigers. In the future, don't grab other people's tails. The fight between trapped animals is very scary." things."

Seeing that the Grand Tutor was about to leave, Li Luosu couldn't help but asked, "Don't you tell me about the inspection of the Royal Garden at the end of the month? I have heard what the stage said, and the emperor will test me in public when the time comes."

Duanmuyao turned to look at him, and said, "You don't work hard on the number of books, and you always skip classes in rites and music. Among the six arts, the only one who can excel is Sheyu. Why don't you ask the Taibao to help you pass the test."

Li Luosu was a little annoyed, and thought of the eight chapters he had memorized fluently, and said, "Does the Taifu look down on the prince? Or is he not confident in his own teaching? Then I want to perform the Dashao dance at the Lotus Watching Festival!"

Dashao is a song and dance to praise the merits of Emperor Shun, and it is a perfect dance of saints.Duanmuyao was surprised when Li Luosu said that.

"Why act out what you're least good at?"

"Because there is nothing that the prince can't do! Besides, you will come to accompany me."

Looking at the little guy in front of him, Duanmuyao found an expression that had never appeared on Li Luosu's face.Those were the eyes that refused to admit defeat and wanted to prove themselves.

Well, it's time to check and accept the phased results.

Duanmuyao thought for a while and said: "Okay, I promise you."

The author has something to say:

Li Weixuan: "Old Yue, where is your pink thread? Quickly take it out and wrap them up!"

Yuelao: "The pink thread is used up, do you want the red thread?"
