Liu Jin returned to the Eastern Palace.
"You're back, Jin 'er?" his father said with a smile. Quickly go and take him as your master."
Liu Jin knew that this was the teacher that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had arranged for him to teach.
Liu Jin couldn't refuse Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's arrangement, so he nodded to Liu Ju and said,""Good!"
Liu Ju brought Liu Jin to the main hall of Changle Palace.
Zang Xuan was already seated at the head of the table. The ancient teacher-student etiquette was of a very high standard. Otherwise, he would not have said," A teacher for a day is a father for life."
Liu Jin bent down to serve tea to Zang Xuan first, then his father ordered people to bring over bacon, longans, and other apprenticeship gifts.
Zang Xuan was 50 years old this year. The thing that impressed Liu Jin the most was his long black beard, which reached his chest.
"Greetings, teacher."
All of Liu Jin's etiquette was very respectful.
Zang Xuan stroked his beard in satisfaction and nodded with a smile."Taisun Xian."
He looked at Liu Jin's gentle and refined appearance with red lips and white teeth. He was satisfied, but he also felt that he had a long way to go.
His Majesty said that the imperial grandson did not know how to differentiate between the five grains. He must pass on his life's skills to such a good seedling.
She couldn't let him say something as ridiculous as 'planting green vegetables in winter.'
It was fine for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to hear these seemingly inconspicuous words of a grand imperial grandson. However, if outsiders heard it, they might use this matter to make a fuss and publicize it, thus affecting the reputation of the Eastern Palace.
The Eastern Palace represented the future crown prince. If the officials and people knew that the people of the Eastern Palace could say such absurd things, would they still have confidence in the Eastern Palace?
Zang Xuan's face was stern as he said sternly," In the future, I will come and teach you every three days. I will let you reflect on your knowledge on the third day and ask you questions on the third day. Do you understand?"”
"I understand." Liu Jin nodded.
"Hmm, then we'll start today…" Zang Xuan replied.
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the sound of footsteps outside.
"Zuoshi Zang, let's forget about today.”
It was the Prime Minister of the Great Han Dynasty, Gongsun He. Zang Xuan hurriedly bowed.
Gongsun He whispered something into Zang Xuan's ear. Zang Xuan's expression froze as he looked at Liu Jin with a complicated expression. Then, he said,"Alright, let's forget about it for now. We'll wait for His Highness Taisun to come back and start the class.”
After he left, Liu Ju looked at Gongsun He curiously and asked in confusion,""Uncle, what happened?"
Gongsun He smiled." That's good. His Majesty has ordered us to go in and inspect the disaster situation of the people in the capital region."”
"Huh?" Liu Ju was stunned. Ah!"
"Father, are you letting me in?"
Not me?
Liu Ju's heart sank.
"I want to have a few words with Jin 'er," Gongsun He said with a smile.”
"Good!"
Liu Ju nodded, then shook his head and left with his hands behind his back. His back view was bleak!
"First Grandfather."
Liu Jin smiled and bowed to Gongsun He. Gongsun He quickly held Liu Jin's arm and said with a smile,""Sit down and talk. First Grandfather will leave after giving you a few words of advice.”
Liu Jin nodded and listened attentively.
Gongsun He's expression gradually became serious. He said,""It's a good thing that His Majesty sent you to patrol this time, but it might also be a bad thing.”
"What do you mean?" Liu Jin asked in confusion.”
Gongsun He didn't explain and asked,""Let me ask you, if you patrol the people and they kneel down to you and say long live.”
"What will you do?"
Liu Jin said in confusion," They are grateful to Imperial Grandfather. Of course, I am happy for Imperial Grandfather. Let them get up."”
"No!"
Gongsun He hurriedly stopped him." There are two words missing from this sentence.”
"Hmm?"
Liu Jin scratched his head in confusion.
"Long live, long live, do you think what you said to His Majesty is right? However, others would not think that they were talking to His Majesty. They would think that they were talking to you.”
After Gongsun He said this, Liu Jin suddenly shuddered.
He finally understood which word was missing from this sentence, my emperor!
Long live the emperor and long live the emperor, they were two different meanings!
Gongsun He said earnestly," You must be careful when you're outside. You must listen to every word and think about it carefully."”
Liu Jin looked at Gongsun He gratefully." Thank you, Grandpa."”
Gongsun He waved his hand and said," Don't thank me. You are also a child of the Wei family. The emperor is very satisfied with you, but don't be arrogant. You have to be careful."”
"The more satisfied His Majesty is with you, the more dangerous it is.”
"The danger may not come from His Majesty, but from others. The principle of an innocent man being guilty of a treasure must be remembered in your heart. When you're out, be careful.”
Gongsun He gave Liu Jin a very profound political lesson.
Liu Jin nodded heavily and bowed.""Grandpa, I understand."
"Good child, don't be too stressed. Grandfather is still here, your three uncles are still here, and your grandmother is still here.”
"We, we, are all observing you. We won't let anything happen to you.”
Gongsun He patted Liu Jin's shoulder and said,""His Majesty asked me to prepare for your trip. I'll go and do my work first. Remember what you said today. Don't tell anyone, including your father.”
"Good!"
Liu Jin nodded.
After Gongsun He left, Liu Jin suddenly shivered.
This meant that Gongsun He already knew that someone was going to deal with the Eastern Palace. In the past, it was the Crown Prince Liu Ju who was in danger. Now, he might be in even more danger than the Crown Prince.
These opponents could not be seen or touched. Liu Jin did not know who it was, and Gongsun He did not say it clearly. This meant that no one would put this matter on the table and fall out with each other. They were all testing and competing with each other.
After Gong Sun He left, the sign language teacher that Liu Ju had hired for him arrived.
This afternoon, Liu Jin had been learning sign language from this teacher. Some simple things were easy to learn.
……
Weiyang Palace.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty called Slave Wu over. Beside her was another young woman.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said," Ah Nu will protect his safety. Ah Qing will be responsible for his daily life. He will set off tomorrow. Go to the Eastern Palace early in the morning and wait for him."”
"Tell me everything that happened on the way and ensure his safety.”
"You can die, but nothing can happen to him.”
The two girls nodded, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty waved them off.
