"Sister, our Biao Er is really capable.”
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand to dismiss everyone, then he bragged to Ma Xiuying through the curtain.
"Sister, who do you think we should find to be Biao 'er's literature master?”
"Literature master? Chongba, our Biao is only three years old.”
Zhu Yuanzhang knew that Ma Xiuying was dissatisfied when he heard her tone.
"Sister, let's find him first. We'll let him start learning when he's four years old.”
"No, it's too early."
Ma Xiuying refused without thinking.
"Then, four and a half years old?"
"It still won't work."
"Then five."
Seeing that Ma Xiuying still wanted to object, Zhu Yuanzhang directly interrupted her.
"Sister, I know that you care about Biao Er, but ordinary children start to study at the age of six. Our Biao Er has to be earlier than them, right?”
Ma Xiuying thought about it and felt that Zhu Yuanzhang was right.
"Then let's wait until Biao 'er is five years old. Since he wants to study, let him go to the front yard to find a place to stay.”
"Sister?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was puzzled.
"In another two years, Second and Third will be big. It will be hard for Biao 'er to live here. Moreover, our Biao' er doesn't have the prince's manor yet.”
Ma Xiuying also knew that in two years, Zhu Xi and Zhu Xi would grow up, and they would probably cause a lot of trouble.
Once there were many children, and the Duke Wu Residence was not particularly big, Zhu Biao would not be too comfortable living there.
"This…"
Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a while and felt that Ma Xiuying was right.
"Alright, we know about this."
"Then let's consider Biao 'er's literature master.”
Zhu Yuanzhang listened to Ma Xiuying's words and began to think.
How could he build a mansion for Zhu Biao?
No, how could he make Zhu Biao's mansion closer to him?
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want Zhu Biao to be too far away from him.
"Men, go and find Li Shan Zhang for us.”
Not long after Zhu Yuanzhang returned to the study, Li Shanzhang came.
"Upstairs."
"Yes."
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, indicating for Li Shanzhang to sit down.
"A hundred generations, I plan to find a literature master for Biao Er. When he is five years old, he will start studying. Do you have any good candidates?”
Zhu Yuanzhang was a martial artist, and his relationship with the literati was not considered close.
Li Shan Chang was the only accomplished scholar around him.
Other than asking Li Shanzhang for his idea, Zhu Yuanzhang really didn't have any good ideas.
"Upstairs, what do you think of Song Lian?”
"Song Lian? Let's think about it again."
Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a moment. He didn't know much about Song Lian, so he should understand more before making a decision.
In the blink of an eye, Zhu Biao was almost five years old.
Zhu Biao already had four brothers.
Four years old.
Zhu was two years old.
In history, Emperor Yongle Zhu Di had just been born.
Zhu Biao didn't know yet.
His carefree and happy childhood was about to end.
At this time, Zhu Biao was playing happily in Ma Xiuying's courtyard with Zhu Xi and Zhu Di.
Zhu Biao saw that there was very little entertainment in ancient times.
So he brought Zhu Rong and Zhu Rong to play the game he played when he was young.
He threw sandbags, hopscotch, and glass beads.
Of course, there were no Glass Orbs now.
Zhu Biao was replaced with jade that was not of good quality.
Zhu Xiong and Zhu Xiong had never seen such a fun thing before. They were having a great time playing with Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao's image in their hearts became even higher.
In the eyes of Zhu Xi and Zhu Xi.
Big brother Zhu Biao was simply the most powerful and greatest person in the world.
He dared to snatch the slippers from the furious Zhu Yuanzhang to save their butts.
He could also create so many interesting games.
Most of the time, when Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying talked, they might go in one ear and out the other.
But since Zhu Biao had given the order, they would definitely obey.
This made Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying both proud and helpless.
Who didn't want their children to live in harmony? Zhu Biao was a good elder brother and was very patient with all his younger brothers.
If Zhu Biao knew what they were thinking, he would definitely tell them to stop dreaming.
Zhu Biao treated Zhu Xi, Zhu Xi, and Zhu Di because they shared the same mother as him.
He had lived with them since they were young, and their feelings were mostly brotherly. Moreover, they were all capable people.
After Ma Xiuying gave birth to her fifth brother, Zhu Xi, he would not be so good-tempered with the remaining half-brothers.
Unless it was someone with extraordinary abilities that made him look at them in a different light, the rest was at most a matter of face.
After all, you can't expect him to take care of a bunch of unborn brothers.
"Prince, Duke Wu wants you to come to his study.”
Seeing the people around Zhu Yuanzhang, the beads in Zhu Xi and Zhu Xi's hands fell to the ground.
"Big brother, I haven't caused any trouble these few days.”
"That's right, Eldest Brother. Second Brother and I have been very obedient these past few days.”
Zhu Xiong and Zhu Xiong hurriedly said.
They were really afraid. Zhu Yuanzhang didn't treat them well and often called his big brother over to teach them a lesson.
"Young masters, don't worry. The High Duke called the Crown Prince over for the matter of the Crown Prince's residence.”
The guard who came to pass the message was quite familiar with the two brothers. He smiled and explained to the two of them.
"That's good."
The two of them heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this.
"Brother Da Na, you should go quickly. Second Brother and I will play for a while.”
"Alright."
Zhu Biao nodded and followed the guard to Zhu Yuanzhang's study.
"Second brother, what is the shizi fu?”
"Maybe it's where Big Brother lives?”
"But will big brother live next door soon?”
"I don't know either. When big brother comes back, we'll ask big brother. Big brother will definitely know.”
"Yes, yes, yes. Big Brother definitely knows.”
The two brothers discussed for a while and then threw the question to the back of their minds. They continued to play marbles happily.
Anyway, Big Brother would definitely know. They didn't need to think about it themselves.
Zhu Biao soon arrived at Zhu Yuanzhang's study. He only stepped into the study after he had someone inform him.
In the study, besides Zhu Yuanzhang, there was also a man who looked polite. He was in his fifties and looked like a scholar.
"Greetings, father!" Zhu Biao saluted Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Biao Er, get up quickly."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the five-year-old Zhu Biao with pride in his eyes. His son was five years old, and everyone praised him for his politeness.
Other than our Biao Er, where else in the world would there be such an outstanding child?
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed with pride as he looked at Zhu Biao with a solemn expression.
"Biao Er, this is the famous scholar in Jiangnan, Mister Song. Biao 'er, hurry up and greet Mr. Song!”
"Yes."
Zhu Biao bowed respectfully to Song Lian.
"Hello, Mr. Song."
When Zhu Biao stood up, Song Lian had already stood up and stepped aside.
"This old man is just a pedantic scholar, I don't deserve your courtesy.”
"Of course, Mr. Song is qualified!"
Before Zhu Biao could reply, Zhu Yuanzhang turned to look at Zhu Biao with a serious expression.
"Biao 'er, you're five years old now, and you're getting older. Therefore, today, I have specially invited Sensei Song over to be your literary master so that you can learn some of the teachings of Confucius and Mencius. You have to work hard and not let down such a good teacher like Mr. Song!”
？
Zhu Biao was confused.
He was only four and a half years old. How could he be five years old already?
Other people's children start learning at the age of five at most, but he entered school at the age of five?
Was there a mistake?
My happy childhood, didn't it end a little too early?
