In the Little Sage Manor, classes were always very boring, especially the lessons on meditation. A bunch of people were shaking their heads as they read, pretending to be very knowledgeable and serious.
The drawn-out tone seemed soft, making the originally energetic Tianming even more sleepy. In the end, he could only support his face and squint his eyes. Slowly…he lay on the table.
Fu Nian looked at Tianming, who was getting more and more listless, and the veins on his forehead were slightly wrinkled. He slammed his palm on the table." Is this how you study?" Where are your spirits? Where was his aura? Were they all eaten by dogs?"
The Master said,"Recite the Book of Songs three hundred times, and teach him government affairs, and he will not understand them; If you send envoys to the four quarters, you can't answer them alone. Even if there are many, what can you do?”
The Master said,"His conduct is upright, and he does not give orders, but acts. If he is not upright, he will not obey orders."
The two lines of the Analects of Confucius that they shouted out in succession were neat and clean. Even Tianming was shaken out of his deep sleep.
"Oh!" Tianming rubbed his eyes." Wasn't it good to be so soft just now?”
"Ziming!" Fu Nian looked at him angrily, causing Tianming to bow slightly. With Fu Nian's current power, it would be difficult for Tianming to face him before he opened the door. Even Jing Tianming in his previous life was more or less affected by Fu Nian's peak power during the Northern Expedition.
"Grand Master." Tianming bowed his head and cupped his hands.
Fu Nian pointed at the corner." Go!”Tianming responded softly and walked to the corner of the wall, standing lazily. Fu Nian could tell that Tianming wasn't as sleepy as before. This time, he had definitely been 'hypnotized' by the scholarly disciples 'recitation.
Even so, it was time to suppress Ziming. If he hadn't been so lazy…Sigh! Fu Nian shook his head as he thought of this. Looking at Tianming's messy standing posture, he shouted,""Shuang. Legs together! Straighten your arms! His waist and back were one! Look ahead!" Every time Fu Nian said something, Tianming would tremble and adjust his posture. "Yes!" Fu Nian nodded." Only then will you have the demeanor of a scholarly disciple!”
When the others saw Tian Ming being reprimanded by Fu Nian, they all laughed mockingly.
"Laugh?" Fu Nian narrowed his eyes." What are you laughing at? Do you remember?"
"I…remember…it…" It was the usual drawl. (It's probably the same as us first and second graders calling our teachers good.)
"Hmm?" Fu Nian responded with a light 'mmm' to indicate his displeasure.
"I'll remember!" They switched back to the simple and clean chorus.
"Since you remembered it, why didn't you write it down?”Fu Nian looked at the people who were standing there motionless." Do you want me to say it again?”" Done?" After a series of rapid writing sounds, he asked,"”
"It's done!" After being reprimanded by Fu Nian, he said,"'After a while, their spirits had recovered quite a bit.
" Since you've written it…" Fu Nian looked around at everyone in the room. He closed his eyes as if he was suppressing his anger. When he opened his eyes, his voice seemed very calm, but anyone could feel the burning rage hidden under it." Then why didn't you do it?"”There was no change in his tone, and he used the most peaceful tone. However, there was something hidden underneath that made everyone's heart tremble.
They gulped at the same time and quickly adjusted their sitting positions, looking straight at Fu Nian.
"Zi Mu, Zi Si, Zi…copy the national customs five times. Zi Cong, Zi Xuan, Zi... were punished to copy the national wind four times. Zimo, Zijian, Zi... they were punished to copy the national wind three times. His son, Liu Jue, copied twenty pieces of the Analects of Confucius as a warning. Liu Ziyu's performance was outstanding. He sat upright and spoke upright without copying.”
"Why does Zijue only need to copy 20 chapters, while we have to copy the entire volume?”Zi Mu was very unconvinced.
"This guy?" Fu Nian looked at Zi Mu and didn't seem to show anything, but he made Zi Mu prostrate on the desk." This guy! Me! Little Saint Manor! The scholarly faction! Is this how I taught you? He is your junior brother! Is this how you address him? If you're like this in front of me, if you don't do it in front of me, aren't you going to rebel against the heavens?”
"I wouldn't dare!" Zi Mu called out in a trembling voice.
"You still know that you are a student?" Fu Nian frowned and had already restrained his anger. In his opinion, he had…lost his composure too much. "You are grounded in the Court of Reflection. You have to copy the Four Books and Five Classics five times each and hand them over within three days. Otherwise…you don't have to hand anything over in the future. If I find out that anyone is helping him…"The Great Learning, The Doctrine of the Middle Way, The Analects of Confucius, Mencius; The Five Classics are: The Book of Changes, The Book of History, The Book of Songs, The Book of Rites, and The Spring and Autumn Annals.
No need to hand over anything? Didn't he mean to chase him out of the Small Sage Manor? The Little Sage Manor was the holy land of the scholarly faction. If they were to be chased out of this place…they would definitely be people with bad conduct, and people that the scholarly faction would not tolerate. Who would dare to accept such a person?
"Grandmaster, don't!"
Facing Zi Mu's pleas, Fu Nian only said coldly,""Three days." Seeing that Zi Mu still did not get up, she said," Do you want me to…invite you?”
Hearing the many unkindness suppressed in Fu Nian's words, Zi Mu put away the things on the table and rushed to the Court of Reflection.
Under Fu Nian's fury, the atmosphere of the entire Small Sage Manor changed in an instant. The spirit and appearance were completely renewed, and it completely lost its previous sloppiness.
However, Tianming's pressure also followed, and he could no longer slack off like before. After all, if he was the same as before, he would only stand out even more. People would change because of what happened around them.
After the riding lesson in the afternoon, he walked out of the Little Sage Manor as usual. However, the difference was…this time, he had a little tail following him.
Or was he moving forward slowly like before? He didn't show any emotion on the surface, but he kept thinking about the purpose of this stalker. What was it? Or was it just a test?
He continued to walk down the mountain as if he did not notice anything. Hmm? Had he left? What was the meaning of this?
"Not panicking in the face of danger, not panicking in the face of change, Zifang is indeed a hero with great ambition!”
This voice, Li Si? So…they had arrived at their destination?
"Zifang is merely a commoner, how would she dare to trouble Daren.”Zhang Liang said calmly.
"Ziming, why don't you come in for a chat?" Li Si's voice slowly rang out, but it made Zhang Liang frown slightly. Letting Tianming get involved would probably ruin things.
" Sir," Tianming scratched his head and laughed dryly." Uh…you two adults can chat while I, a child, can go and watch the sunset in peace."”Hurry up and get out of here! If he exposed himself in front of Li Si, he would die!
The adults were chatting, while the children were chatting? Calm down? Did he mean that he knew that we were going to talk about something big, and that a small figure like him only wanted to stay out of it? Li Si smiled inwardly, but…do you think that's possible? If you don't want to get involved, then I'll drag you in! Do you think you still have a chance to escape?
That's right! If it was an ordinary person who knew some secrets, the only way to survive would be to join a certain party to save his life. However, was Tianming an ordinary person?
"There's still a long time before the 'sunset'!”Li Si walked out of the room and looked at Tianming." The sunset isn't 'coming' yet, is it?”He narrowed his eyes.
'Sunset' referred to the fall, the fall of dawn. In the end, she asked him,"Isn't that so?" It also meant that whether or not he was going to do it right away was up to him.
"Ahaha!" Tianming opened his mouth and cupped his hands." Yes, there's still a long time before sunset. Prime Minister, Ziming won't be polite."”Heavens! This excuse had been rejected. What should he do?
Calling me 'Prime Minister' instead of 'Milord,' are you unhappy with my threats? Li Si's lips curled up slightly, but it didn't matter anymore. You've entered my pit, so do you still want to escape?
After walking into the room, a pot of boiling water was placed on the table, and the faint fragrance of tea floated in the room.
Li Si personally poured tea. When it was Tianming's turn, Tianming simply propped his face up with his hands." I want plain water."”
Are you still angry? Ha! What a child. Li Si shook his head. He still wanted to retain his innocence. He would be at a disadvantage in the imperial court. Thinking of this, a thought appeared in his mind.
"Do you know what kind of tea this is?”Li Si sniffed the tea.
" The leaves are flat and long." Zhang Liang shook the teacup gently." The color is yellow and green like jade. The bottom of the leaves is tender and even like a flower." He looked at Li Si." This should be the Heavenly Palace Cloud Jade from Mount Shu."”
Li Si nodded." Yun Zhongjun brought this tea from Mount Shu. It's a top-grade tea. I'm impressed."”
"Milord, please forgive me." Zhang Liang only chuckled.
"This tea is so precious!" Tianming's eyes widened. In Jing Tianming's memory, he had indeed never enjoyed tea or anything like that. Firstly, there was no time, and secondly, there was no need. In Jing Tianming's eyes, the time it took to brew a pot of tea was enough for him to kill you a thousand times over. What was the difference between drinking tea and drinking water? Anyway, it was to quench their thirst.
"Of course!" Zhang Liang nodded. It was not polite to ask the host to explain at this time. He raised his teacup and said," Just this one is worth at least ten taels of gold. It's something that others can't buy even if they want to.”
Can't even buy it?
Tomorrow…Oh, today. It's my birthday, so I have a day off. Today, I have two chapters.
Add my book, Jun Yang! There were only about ten people in the group now. It was so cold…
