Chapter 214 The Grudge between the Protector of the Country and the Imperial Tutor
Because of the assassin incident, no one had the interest to participate in the lantern festival anymore. In addition, the Imperial Master had returned to Beijing. Given his previous temper, he would definitely take time to inspect these royal children. The prince and his entourage dispersed and went home to prepare for the Imperial Master's inspection.
Xiao Jingxuan and Ye Tang went to find Ye Peng and Ye Ping'an, and they were both confused all the way.
"Is the Imperial Teacher really that scary?" Ye Tang's heart was pounding, and he was a little panicked: "I don't want to study."
She had read many books in China. The books there were very fascinating, but the books here were very complicated and boring. She would fall asleep as soon as she read them. She had to translate them herself. Why? Because they were all written in classical Chinese.
She can enjoy the joy of reading, but does not want to endure the pain of being dominated by reading.
She is the one who reads the books, not the books that read her!
"I don't want to study either!" Jamel Xiao was also afraid of the feeling of sitting in the classroom and studying in an orderly manner: "I prefer to study in my dreams."
Ye Tang held his hand and said, "Let's not think too much about it. Maybe the Imperial Master won't look down on us. After all, we are such losers. Yes, we will continue to be losers, dozens of times more losers than before, the kind of losers that people will hate at first sight. If we disgust the Imperial Master, he won't catch us and teach us."
Jamel Xiao: "...But my lady, it seems like the waste should be educated more."
"That's why I said we have to be as useless as possible. You've been so traumatized today. You're a weak and pretty boy. You need to get seriously ill when you get home."
Jamel Xiao's eyes lit up when he heard this.
About a quarter of an hour later, the carriage arrived in front of Ye Peng and Ye Ping'an, who were drinking in the tavern. Ye Ping'an followed their example and drank a little, and got drunk.
"Eh? Isn't this our carriage?" Ye Ping'an staggered closer to the carriage, lifted the curtain, and saw two pale-faced people inside. He screamed in shock: "Dad, it's bad, my sister and brother-in-law are in trouble!"
Ye Tang and Xiao Jingxuan returned to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion in a sick state. Ye Tang's complexion was slightly better, but Xiao Jingxuan's face was as pale as paper, and his body was extremely cold, as if he had been soaked in ice water.
"We encountered an assassin!" Ye Tang told everyone about the assassination.
Shangguan Zhenhua was furious when he heard this: "How can this be absurd? Who sent the assassin this time? Was it the same person as last time? No matter who it is, I will not let him go. Granddaughter, grandson-in-law, you can rest assured and recuperate. Grandfather will go to the palace and ask the emperor for the power to monitor assassins. I will personally investigate the assassination and bring the person behind the scenes to justice. Oh, and that old man Su Yinghuai, he dared to throw my grandson-in-law into such a cold lake, causing my grandson-in-law to be so seriously ill. I will definitely go to his house to seek justice with him."
"Grandfather, it's too late. Let's go to the palace tomorrow morning!"
Shangguan Zhenhua waved his hand: "No, we must go to the palace now. Since Su Yinghuai has returned to Beijing, he will definitely go to the palace to meet the emperor overnight, and then go to the Prince's East Palace and the residences of various princes and princesses the next day. If I rush to the palace now, I will definitely see the emperor and that old man who were disturbed from their sweet dreams."
Shangguan Zhenhua entered the palace overnight in a rage.
Ye Tang felt that his grandfather was in a bad mood tonight, especially after hearing that the Imperial Master had returned to Beijing. He looked as if he wanted to eat the Imperial Master.
"Does my grandfather have a grudge against the Imperial Teacher?" Ye Tang asked He Songlin.
He Songlin put down the spicy strips in his hand: "There is no grudge, we just had a fight!"
Ye Tang and Jamel Xiao: "......"
Ye Tang asked: "My grandfather was beaten?"
The imperial tutor is the emperor's teacher, so my grandfather probably wouldn't dare to take action against him. If a fight really broke out, it would probably be my grandfather who got beaten.
He Songlin was choked and started coughing violently. Ye Tang poured him a glass of water.
After He Songlin finished drinking the water, she said, "Drinking water doesn't seem to help with the spiciness."
He Songlin coughed even more violently and felt extremely uncomfortable in his nose and throat.
Ye Tang poured him some sugar water again.
He Songlin didn't dare to answer it.
Ye Tang said: "Sugar water works better."
He Songlin glanced at her, thought for three seconds before taking it and drinking it in one gulp.
It took me a long time to recover.
Ye Tang chuckled: "Go on, what happened to my grandfather after he was beaten?"
He Songlin wiped his mouth and said, "Your grandfather was not beaten. It was the Imperial Master who was beaten."
"Didn't the emperor pursue the matter?" Ye Tang's eyes lit up.
If the emperor's teacher was beaten, would the emperor not be angry? No matter how important the minister was, he would not be able to escape punishment!
He Songlin took out the spicy strips again: "No, when the Protector of the Country beat the Imperial Master for the first time, the Imperial Master was not yet the Imperial Master. He was just a talented scholar who became famous in his youth and was admired by countless people."
Ye Tang continued to ask, and Xiao Jingxuan, who was lying on the bed with a half-dead face, also pricked up his ears.
The couple were very interested in the feud between the Imperial Preceptor and the Duke of Protectorate.
The Su family is a century-old family of Confucian scholars. When we say a century, it is actually more than a hundred years, but nearly three hundred years.
The Su family produced many talented people, who not only had profound attainments in literature and politics, but also made achievements in military affairs, arithmetic, culture and other aspects. Before the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty, the Su family lived in seclusion in the mountains because the world was too chaotic.
It was not until Su Yinghuai was born that the Su family reappeared in the public eye. The Su family's talents and abilities spread to the world at a speed like wildfire, among which Su Yinghuai was the most famous.
He was born with a photographic memory. He was able to compose poems at the age of three, write articles at the age of five, and was familiar with the art of war at the age of six... He crushed all the literary geniuses of the time with his strength. He became famous in various countries at the age of fifteen and became a talented person that all countries competed to snatch.
Shangguan Zhenhua was born with supernatural powers. He lost his parents when he was young and had to wander the world alone, begging and selling labor. He would do anything as long as he could stay alive. Not only was he very capable, he was also arrogant and would take revenge. When a scholar said that he was lowly and vulgar, he used his fists to prove how vulgar he was on the spot. The scene of him beating the man happened to be seen by Su Yinghuai.
Su Yinghuai couldn't bear to watch it, so he stepped forward to stop the fight and said a few words to Shangguan Zhenhua. Shangguan Zhenhua was only ten years old at that time and didn't listen at all. In a fit of rage, he beat Su Yinghuai as well.
This was the first time Su Yinghuai was beaten.
The second time he was beaten was in front of Emperor Yuanwu Gongsun Yinli. At that time, Gongsun Yinli was not Emperor Yuanwu yet. He was only 20 years old. He had been Su Yinghuai's disciple for five years and had great respect for Su Yinghuai. Shangguan Zhenhua was a new and powerful general he had found. He was so excited that he took Shangguan Zhenhua to see Su Yinghuai. The two recognized each other after a few words when they met.
Su Yinghuai said that Shangguan Zhenhua was brave but not wise, could barely read and write, and needed proper training to become a great man. Shangguan Zhenhua couldn't argue with him and beat him up again.
After this incident, Su Yinghuai summed up his experience and thought that there were countless unreasonable barbarians like Shangguan Zhenhua in this world. If he was beaten by Shangguan Zhenhua this time, he might be beaten by others next time.
